What's New i'm Fashions?
The Popular Tweeds
BY Betty rowyaLee
FEW, just a few, fabrics.

A FEW, just a few, fabrics,
- lead in popularity over all
d others for coats for both
street and afternoon wear The
dull finished woolens with a
suede-like finish have come into
distinction. Broadcloth remains
good, although it is not quite SO
modish.
Contrasted rather strongly
With these fabrics for afternoon
and dressy coats are the tweeds,
deemed fashionable for town and
country as well as general wear
and for the street. Black tweed
lecked with white is especially
smart. Black still remains chic
despite the continuance of color.
In fact. black for street wear
ranks first However. If you have
q preference for colors, brown is
next in Importance. Greens, too,
of the olive cast are regarded as
suitable for this part of the mode.
Bright navy and dark red will
permit Of a wider color choice.
In the coats for afternoon
wear, black, brown, olive, green
and red are the colors most seen.
Straight lines are still in evil
dence, though If one must be
very fashionable the fiaring
models with fullness concentrated
at the back or sides are decidedls
newer. These, Of course, are for
the more dressy models, and for
street wear r seen in more
modified versions. Conservatism
Is the keynote of the majority of
the new coats, with luxuriousness
added in elaborate fur trimming.
A smart coat of brown tweed
for street wear is illustrated here.

head and spreads fan shape from
the center of the forehead to the
temples, narrowing as It extends
down over the forehead and
temples and then spreading out
again to form the cheeks.
When undernourished and in
active this muscle lengthens,
causing sagging cheeks. Exer-
cised by proper massage this

requires more bleaching than the

preparations il Is better for those
with dry skin to prevent as much

next solution is to use only the

time most of the borax will have

Perfume may be added If you
desire, but again caution must be
exercised or you will get too
much and the bleach will have a
more drying effect. However,
as the strength Of perfumes varies
greatly, I'm going to depend
upon the individual to use only
sufficient perfume to give the
bleach a pleasing scent. a drop
of oil of rose or lavender, es-
pecially tho latter, gives a de-
l~ightfully refreshing scent and
may be used with psrfect safety
instead OF using perfume.
