Fashion Ne1Us
Notes by Wire
to The Argus

Paris, Jan 31.-African jungles
and buttercup meadows have been
copied in the printed georgette
crepes for the summer season. One
design shows a fame and violet
tree with pale green fruit on a
deeper green background. An
other has a conventionalized cos
mos blossom in faint pink on an
orchid ground Across the back
ground of another crepe a handful
of tiny yellow peoples meander. A
crowded corner in a French gard /
has been transplanted to a gray
georgette with orange peoples, tiny
green trees, dull red lilies and a
bold yellow daisy for good meas
ure An afternoon frock of silver
gray crepe has elaborate wide
sleeves of the printed georgette
showing branches of graceful wis
TARA on silver gray ground.
New York, N. Y, Jan. 31.-Grand-
mothers chintz curtains are just
the thing from which to fashion a
gay and deboniar frock for the sea-
shore. The more scrawly the pat
ter, the smarter style-but it must
be remembered that most cretonne
and chintz patterns are not for the
plump. A summer model has plain
cuffs and collar, while the pockets
are outlined with vivid wool work
ed in buttonhole stitch.
Palm Beach, Jan. 31-A-d now
women have encroached on mans
pleated shirt bosom. On the ten
mis- courts today one young player
wore a black and white sports
skirt topped by a tailored crepe
blouse with the bosom laid in fine
pleats. Near the waistline, beneath
the pleats, was an embroidered
monogram in black and white
From the pocket OF the black and
white striped sweater which she
donned at the end of the game
hung, at a smartly negligent angle,
a corner of black silk handkerchief.
London, Jan. 31.-Frayed sleeves.
the torment OF women's life, have at
least come lnIO L06lT OWN. IN Ln6
spring display of a smart shop here
there are several crepe de chine
blouses, with the sleeves ending in
soft, half inch line of frayed
threads. Sometimes the neck lines
are frayed also, and one blouse
fastening with a sash, is frayed at
every edge from neck to sash ends
Another shop displaying cretonne
dresses for summer wear features
a narrow frayed edge at neck,
sleeves and hem Cretonne hats to
match the dresses have a frayed
edge an inch deep standing out be-
yond the brim, or big bows with
frayed ends across the crowns.
New York, N. Y, Jan. 31.-Back
to the days of few flowers and a
bit of cloth wrapped around the
body-this is where the summer
suit designers have gone for one
style, being exhibited, here. The
wrapped skirt" shows a hem line
uneven enough to please a cubist
while the flower idea is carried out
in the petal motif round the edge
of the coat. The material is grav
canton crepe, with black suede
appliques-

Popularity-Low price

Judge Palmolive by other soaps and
you will expect to pay at least Is cents
cake. But the popularity which keeps the
Palmolive factories working day and night
naturally reduces cost. Quantity Produc-
ton is always economical.
Thus this finest facial soap is offered
You can an, economicaIiv p , ls Palmolive for
every toilet purpose, for it costs no more
than ordinary soap.

Cleopatra's way

With a world of ancient
beauty arts at her command,
she depended on cleansing
with Palm and Olive oils to
protect, improve and preserve
the freshness and smoothness
of her skin
This identifying was not
confined to face alone. The
bath was a daily ceremonial
with ali ancient peoples, palm
and olive oils the cIeansers
used.
Battle with Palmolive and
keep your skin smooth and
white. 1t ia a luxury all can
afford.

blooming and aIIuring. The powder and
rouge you use to conceal defects deceive
no one.
The soothing cleanser
Palmolive is the modern combination OF
the same identifying cosmetic oils Cleo
patra used in the days of ancient Egypt.
1t is just as valuable today as a safe sooth-
ing cleanser.
Massage its smooth, creamy lather
softly into the network of tiny pores
which compose the surface of your SKIN.
1t will remove the clogging deposits
which enlarge these pores, cause black
heads and invite blotches.
Dry skins are benefited by cold cream
after cleansing. If unusual dryness IS your
trouble, apply little cream before as well
as after washing.

wakes no

This is the real test. The girl who wakes
fresh and radiant, with a clear, smooth
skin which has no defects to conceal, need
not worry about her looks. She possesses
the greatest of all attractions = the one
which outsl1ines all others.
This need not discourage the girl whose
complexion is not so good. Proper care
will soon transform a bad skin into one
admired for its perfection.
Get rid of the clogging accumulations
which cause coarseness and disfgurine
defects and you will soon be compli-
mented on your fresh blooming COM
plexion.
The secret is simple and about 5000
years old. 1t was discovered in ancient
Egypt and practiced by Cleopatra.

to respect something else in the ere
gion of the Pacific" wherever that
may be, the parties to the treaty
will talk about it.
That is the only agreement, and
nobody will venture to say what
would constitute "disrespect' 1t
may amount to something, and it
may not; nobody can tell. II have
a feeling that mankind has become
wise enough to sit down before the
war and try to settle it, says the
President. That isn't matter of
Presidential intuition; that is mat
ter of record at the peace confer
ence. There was opposition, but
President Wilson was tenacious and
inspired, and the opposition gave
way, and mankind actually did
agree 'to sit down before the war
and try to settle it," and Mr.. Hard
ing and his party associates pre-
vented the United States from rati-
flying the League. The greatest
contribution to peace and goodwill"
since the beginning of the Christian
era was the creation of the League
of Nations, which was the work al
most single-handed of Mr.. Harding's
Democratic predecessor.-Philadel-
