favor, and the tiny Mercury wings

Despite these gay and frivolous

The typical American foot is more

Italian foot are short and plump.
American women have smaller feet

How To Use a Precipitation
Preventative.

I Is SO much better to use one OF
the good-and quite safe-prep-
arations for preventative perspira-
i ton than to wear, hideous dress
shields with transparent blouses.
Nothing looks worse than handsome
Georgette or chiffon waist with ugly
shields showing through the sleeve
material. Not all women understand
how to use the creams which prevent
excessive perspiration. Such cream
is not supposed to be used just before
a sheer blouse is donned. And it Is
not supposed to be used every day.
Twice a week is enough. And the
cream should be applied at night after
bathing the skin with warm water
but no soap. The soap counteracts
the effect Of the cream. Rub in the
cream well and then dust with talcum.
Bathing next morning will not destroy
the effect of the cream. Use the cream
faithfully twice a week at night In
this way and after a week or so you
should not be troubled with perspira-
ton at all and will be able to wear
frocks and blouses without shields.
If the cream is used just before dress
ing in a pretty frock, 1t may leave
grease marks on the frock; neither 10

.e6li6ae OF Lace.
Chiffon and Ribbon

the sort Of little frock for a summer
afternoon when one must be bit
more dressed up than for an outdoor
sport occasion. It is made OF checked
wolfe in rose and white and has two
apron panels: one straight and bor-
dered with flet lace. the other mach
inc pleated and tucked across the
front. But the really interesting fea-
ture is the series Of turned back tabs
that edge the skirt drapery at either
side. These tabs are Of white ribbon
bound with pink ribbon, and the same
pink ribbon edges the shawl collar.
the cuffs and the crush girdle. Hat
and parasol are French blue-a
charming combination with the rose
pink tone of the frock.
Like the weekend negligee, the
weekend evening frock must be a
very special affair. 1t must be not
too formal for a dinner and yet a
credit to ones hostess II a large dance
is part of her entertainment. An eve.
ming frock Of some soft. easily packed
material is best--a material that can
be freshened and pressed several
times during the season. for the week.
end dance ffock does good deal OF
travelling in confined space. The dim
ner-dance frock pictured is an excel.
lent model. It is made of very soft
satin in apple green tint draped with
delicate white lace. Silver and blush
pink roses Of metallic tissue are
caught against the pale green satin
sash, and silver slippers are worn with
flesh tinted silk stockings. Over this
dainty evening frock may be slipped
the smart wrap in another picture
if one is going to drive anywhere. Or
the wrap can be worn with, equal cor
rectness with the travelling frock and
hat-a useful weekend wrap this!

edIlpi - ANKLES

and daintiest footwear that can be
produced-fairylike slippers and slim,
,sheathlike buttoned street boots along
with cobwebby silk hose have not
been enough to attract attention to
feet. Now there must be also foot
and the greatest of these.
at the moment, is the feather anklet.
Oddly enough these feather affairs
girdling the ankle do not have
clumsy appearance. On the contrary
they make ankles look all the slirn-
mer and daintier. This is because
feet and ankles are daintily and trina
tly clad and skirts are short enough TO
show the lines Of the leg above the
ankle. the rather bulky feather anklet
only emphasizing the trimness of the
slender ankle it adorns. You will OBJ
serve this effect in the two illustra-
tons. one showing an anklet Of feath-
er fringes and the other an anklet of
ribbon with ostrich tufts. The idea
is really very fetching and coquettish
and not at all unpleasing-if milady
must have something new and
piquant in the way Of foot-dressing.
The anklet with ostrich tufts is
canary yellow in color and Is worn
With dance frock OF black SILK net
and jet. The silk stockings are black.
and also the dancing slippers of satin,
with small rhinestone buckles. The
canary yellow feather anklet Is the
only spot Of color in the black cos
tune and is. of course. touch OF
coquetry pure and simple-one of
those fashion touches which make no
possible claim of utility but are sirn-
ply and solely to attract attention.
Earrings come in the same class, SO
do corsage bouquets, SO do ali kinds
OF silk and bead embroidery and other
trimming. Therefore the feather
anklet has as much reason for being
as any other decorative but not useful
adjunct of costume.
The other anklet is OF cerise ostrich
fringe mounted above silver ribbon.

bodice. The RULES are of lace dyed
to match the chiffon frock and tiny
coral velvet bows here and there
make smart color contrast. Another
exquisite frock is of silver tissue with
skirt foamy with ruff1es Of white lace
threaded with silver. A garland of
metal tissue flowers in pastel shades
trims the silver tissue bodice and the
skirt IS draped in Harem effect over
pantalettes of white satin with frills
of silver lace.
An attractive street frock worn in
the last act is Of light brown taffeta.
the skirt composed of six-inch ruffies,
each edged with brown velvet ribbon.
A delightful little dolman jacket of
brown velvet has a ruche Of fringed
out brown taffeta- Chiffon frocks are
always lovely. whatever the color. but

what entertainment you are to expect.
And no hostess will--if the visit is to
be at large country house where
guests are expected to be provided
with plenty Of clothes for any sort Of
entertainment. You will be invited for
certain length Of time and some
thing will be said about meeting your
tra1n-and that is all. The clothes
problem you must worry out by your
self.
Certain things it is always safe to
provide. For one thing you must have
warm wrap; motoring will surely be
one Of the diversions. This wrap you
can carry or wear on the journey.
And it is usually better to select for
the journey smart afternoon frock
that can be covered with the wrap,
than tailored suit which will be of
little use during the visit itself. A
weekend Journey is never very long
and smart froek will not be harmed
by the brief trip. An elaborate hat
and parasol and dainty footwear will
make the frock suitable for any for
NAL afternoon affair during the visit.
Hats are usually the hardest problem
to meet. for several will probably be
required. A large picture hat can
usually be packed in the tray of the
week end trunk and crushable sport
hat is a good thing to have It may
be of flexible straw, Of shirred silk or
Of ratine. A sailor is the most diff
cult thing to pack. but perhaps the
sailor can be worn with the travelling
costume.
Careful Selection or Footwear
Shoes are another problem when
small trunk or suitcase is to be
packed. There must be dancing slip
pers for the evening costume. sport
shoes. perhaps tennis and bathing
shoes. With the travelling coat or
suit formal footwear can be worn
high heeled buttoned boots with light
cloth tops will be suitable and correct
both with this costume and with an
elaborate afternoon costume of silk
or similar material. Stockings are
the easiest things in the world to pack
so there will be no trouble about
tucking in several kinds-silk ones
for dancing an6, bathing and ribbed
wooden ones for golf, as well as stock
ings to match the negiigee.

of pinning deep pink rose on her

their wearers the effect of being borne

Mems to work out Weekend
Clothes are not summer hotel clothes

II YOU are going to pay number
OF short visits over Saturday and Sum
day, It will pay you to invest in a
weekend "box"--as the English wom-
al calls her small trunk that may be
carried in a cab or taxi. Some WON en-
prefer small steamer trunk, others
rely on the trusty suitcase, which now
comes In very smart style-made of
shiny black leather with double brass
locks and with shallow tray inside.
Other women use square hatboxes
also covered with black vanished
leather and provided with brass lock
and trimmings. These may be sent
by express and there Is good deal of
SPACE inside. even when picture hat
Is pinned in place. II Is not consld-
cred good form, you know. to arrive
ct your destination loaded down with
. heavy travelling bag. The proper
thing is to send on small "box" or
trunk in advance and make your ap-
pearance as though you had just come
to call-with nothing in your hands
but a small dressing case or over
night bag.
Few Clothes But Those Must Count
One can make weekend visit in
winter with nothing but am overnight
bag containing nicely folded chiffon
dinner gown and ones nightie; but in
summer 1t is different. Half the time
will be spent out of doors, so there
must be an adequate sport outfit in
addition to evening regalia and cos
tune for the possible formal after
neon affair. X your hostess has
planned a garden party for Saturday
afternoon, a dinner-dance for Satur-
day evening. and luncheon Sunday
at the country club you will feel very
uncomfortable, arriving with only your
tailored travelling suit and something
for evening wear. All dress con-
tingencies must be planned for when
a summer weekend visit is in prospect

down the front is length Of narrow
silver ribbon with tiny orchid flowers
sewed on at intervals Flesh pink silk
stockings and satin slippers. with
crossed straps at the instep match the
beautiful negligee.
Sport Toys There Must Be
Whether you are a golf player or
tennis expert or not, you must have
smart sport toys for the weekend Wis,
it--if only to wear at the country
club. or watching somebody else play
tennis. A good sport costume for
mountain or shore is pictured; the
skirt of checked brown and cream
wool. the sweater Of brown silk and
the blouse OF handkerchief linen with
iuted frills. A cravat of strawberry
red silk adds a bright color touch
and the hat has a scarf of cream,
brown and red Oriental silk. The
sport costume is accompanied by tan
calf oxfords and brown ribbed wool
stockings.
For the girl who expects to enjoy
swim during her weekend stay is
the modern yet pleasingly modest
bathing suit of navy blue taffeta and
white satin. The white panel down
the front is new idea and the skirt
is oddly made. Strips Of the blue
taffeta faced with white satin are
stitched together so that the edges of
each strip stand out like little carr
fridge pleats. Knockers of blue taft
