Miss Collect Wears
.JewelrV at Tennis

There are women who like to dress
by rule-and the fashion articles that
interest them most are those that con-
sist Of long list of don'ts. They like
to feel that there are quite definitely
made rules and regulations which i
kept will make one well dressed and
smart.
Any one can make a set Of rules and
regulations Of dress based on personal
prejudice or impressions received from
well dressed women. But the trouble
is that the rule that holds today may
be broken tomorrow and broken by
some one whose taste u so good and
whose position as leader of fashion
is so secure that the exception cannot
be ignored
After all, fashion and good form In
dress depend on usage, and 1t Is only as
fashions are interpreted by we'll dressed
women here and abroad that fashion
tendencies are developed,
Some women hold to the. rule that
earrings should never be worn with
sports clothes or even with senli-Sports
clothes, rule which would be worth
good deal more than 1t Is If o number
of unquestionably we'll dressed women
had not included earrings In their
sports ensembles this Summer.
Perhaps you have heard that jewelry
worn on the tennis court or golf links
should always be of the strictly sports
Gsort-and should be very sparingly
worn at that. Yet Miss Glenna Col
lett, our own golf champion. rs well as
number of well known European
golfers, have worn pearl necklaces at
recent tournaments.

roast Spring lamb perfectly
Il cooked, but served without any
green peas, mint sauce, currant
Jelly or whatever it is that good cooks
send to the table with roast Spring
lamb to make IL q culinary work of art;
and there are women whose appearance
reminds one Of Spring lamb served with
hprseradish sauce-perfectly good lamb
and exeellently made horseradish sauce
but both quite unpalatable when
served together.
Smart dressing like really good cook
ing depends not only on getting very
good materials and using them with ex-
pertness, but also on the selection Of
3ust the accessories and garnishes that
make for harmonious whole. And
sometimes less expensive materials and
trimmings may be used with excellent
results Ii they have been chosen and
blended with good taste and skill.
The best plan to adopt in securing
effective and smart ensembles Is to buy
ones accessories Is much as possible
at the same time one buys the dress,
wrap or suit with which they are to be
worn. And here the woman who bud
gets her spending money has q distinct
advantage, because she knows precisely
now much she may spend without run
ming into extravaganza.
To make q rule that will cover all

More Than Skin Deep

The skin is an excretory organ. The
lungs and the kidneys come under the
same classification. Disease, inefii-
clancy or tnsuf1ciency In any of these
organs leaves marked impression on
the others. Such symptoms are easily
read and understood by all physicians.
Skin diseases are not all of internal
origin, often being caused by infections
or trttAtions from external causes. But
some Of the most unsightly and obsti-
nate skin and complexion conditions
are directly traceable TO faulty elimina-
ton.
Having ascertained this 10 be the
cause, the next step IL to set about its
correction.
No powder, or, whatever creamy con-
eistency or artistry of color, no rouge
Of softened or vivid hue, no cream,
though made of the most soothing oils,
viii successfully cover blemishes caused
by functional disorders of the system.
The compilations which look best when
artistieally touched up are those that
show perfect health as the foundation.
A elaRRed SzGtAm means the fornna-

tone that is to be most becoming and

tone that is to be most becoming and
appropriate.
Remember that a pink tone always
makes the legs look plumper and there
fore the woman whose legs are the re-
verse of slender should avoid any beige
or @lnburned tone that verges on the
rose side of the color scale.
The short woman who wants to APP
pear as tall as possible should wear
stockings that match her shoes, or
rather this season, when there Is very
little variety In stockings, shoes that
match the stockings. Beige tones Of
leather with stockings to match are q
wtee selection for one who wishes to
make the most Of her inches.
Despite the favor shown to stockings
of darker hue during the Winter-espe-
cially to brown tones and gun metals to
wear with brown or black shoes-well
dressed American women have 50 gem
orally adopted light beige and suntan
tones for warm weather that these
darker stockings look little stuffy and
are usually conspicuous when worn
with lightweight Summer clothes.
To simplify the question Of glove color,
one may adopt auntan tones for all oc-
casions, though pure white gloves are
in good form for evening wear, when
gloves are worn ut all, or to wear with
the ensemble in which white plays an
important role.
Pull-on gloves In hid or fabric Of
suede finish are the rule for every day
wear. and some Of the newest models
have a short slit at the inside Of the
wrist with two buttons and two button-
holes at each slit so that q somewhat
closer f1t over the wrist may be obtained
than is possible with the regular. slip-on
type Of glove.
