The Vogue
OF Black
"

TINE predicted vogue for black the
coming season is going to give
many a woman the opportunity
to have dyed the light dress which has
been hanging useless in the closet for
some time. Almost every known ma
terial is being used. with crepes and
satins particularly. and, Of course,
black lace. -.
The Frenchwomanshas always owed

that there is nothing sombre or de-
pressing in its effect. By her knowl-
edge Of line and proportion, of material
and draping and white spaces made
up of throat and arms, she

colorful.
A French milliner, for instance, will
always shrug her shoulders at Ameri-
can enthusiasm for colorful headgear.
She believes IN black, and black only,
for smart effects. She sticks to this
theory through hot season and cold.
proving by her productions that she is
right hrst, last and all the time.
Many a Parisienne never wears any
thing but black, and everyone has a
black gown to fall back upon when
she wishes to look her best. But the
present uprising in favor of black goes
beyond the usual tendency.
The Parisienne, al this time Of the
year, always shows a preference for
combinations of black and white.

There are plenty of reasons if you

Familiar as fiickering screen per-
sonalities, Beverly Bayne and Fran
els X. Bushman made their debut
in Washington yesterday as vaude-
willie stars. Their vehicle is The
Poor Rich Man." gay and incon-
seQuent comedy that serves its pur-
pose in affording a peg on which
to hang the co-stars' talents.
Miss Bayne's really astounding
beauty is more pronounced than the
stingy screen has told u s. Hers
is the vivid. houri-eyed beauty fit
tingly described by the Arabian
poet as a Moon of delight that
putteth the little stars to flight"
And Of a truth, most vaudeville
stars would do we'll to avoid COM
| parison. with the beauteous Bev-
| erly. We want to get poetic on
our own hook and say that her eyes
are like the dark. bright pools of
a mirage. Bushman is the same
able actor on that Stage that he
is on the screen. ArS his blond
good looks provoke the inevitable
chorus of contralto sighs. The es-
sential artificiality OF their vehimle
Is the one thing that CRATES in an
act characterized by sound acting
and attractive personalities.
Miller and Mack are such wild
little boys. They pranced and dane
ed and carried on quite outrageous
ly with the aid of a brick or two
and an antiquated evening dress.
But their act carried a double
quota of laughs. Brown and O'Don-
nell belong in the same category.
Young Mr.. Brown Is a whole mob
by himself, while O'Donnell abets
him and -warbles prettily on his
own hook. Theirs is the kind of
act that induces temporary for
getfulness Of prohibition and the
income tax.
Pretty maids are the Barr Twins,
and their curtains and costumes
are quite undiluted delight. This
makes 1t all the more regrettable
that they should open their turn
oy nutterfng down to the footlights
and singing the equivalent of "Oh,

Regulations governing the use OF
beer as medicine will be issued
shortly, according to Secretary of

law to forbid it.
Use of beer as medicine is per-

eral, which his successors have de-
clined to revoke. The issuance OF
regulations to put Palmer's ruling
into effect has been held UP.

nents, in and out of Congress, have
been wrangling among themselves
Treasury Department officials as a
consequence are preparing to issue
regulations.
Wayne B. Wheeler. of the Anti

threatening his political defeat be-
cause he insisted on holding hear
ings on the bill.
Senator Willis, of Ohio. as a
means of ending the dispute among
the prohibitionists. has offered a
bill as a substitute, the chief OBJ
ject of which is to knock out the
