The Beauty
Box

Despair not, lady of the oily
complexion; your skin may
beam, but it is Of that class Of
cutaneouS fabrics that won't
wrinkle early. Cold water and
ice rubs are your beauty friends,
and don't forget to tip up the
witch haze, bottle every day,
pouring a small quantity Of its
contents onto a bit of cotton,
going over the facial coat ten
derly, letting the application
dry. Avoid pastries that are
rich in fats. Remember that
fruit juices and green salads
are beauty helps.
Foundation garments can be
had that are made Of thin fab
RIGS, easily washable. If they
are stained with perspiration
marks, soak for a time in cold
water before washing. Only
the naturally slender figure can
bear with modern fashions; if
there's the slightest tummy
bulge or hip spread, a founda-
ton garment may be worn to
impart to the frock that smooth
surface which is necessary for
smart effect.

True Love or a Jazz-Mad
Career IS Her Problem

"Your pie dough should be
very dry, and your biscuits very
wet" Val remembered. or was
it the other way around? She
tried both methods, with equally
bad results.
Lets eat out until we get
everything unpacked and you're
more used to the house." Joe
suggested.
Mrs. Peacock, who lived just
around the corner, and had
been Joe's landlady for three
years, was a life-saver, too.
"You just stop in any night
to dinner" she told Val after
they met the morning Of the
second day when she arrived
unannounced and unlimited,
while Joe was at work.
"Well, 1 must say you are a
pretty thing" she said, frankly
sizing Val up from head to foot.
And she added, I'VE were all
so surprised. 1 never thought
he would marry. I saw your
picture on his dresser but I al
ways thought you were some
one he never saw or heard
from any more. Most every
one thought Pearl Nicely would
get him. But I never did. I
could see he wasn't really in
terested. I have four boys Of
my own, and I know all about
them. I don't know so much
about girls, though. :"
Val was surprised to see
that Mrs. Peacock was really
quite shy, in spite of her stout,
solid d appearance and her
straightforward manner.
Two cf her boys were in
town, married to girls who were
a little suspicious Of her aggres-
Sive manner, Val imagined from
what she said, and two were
away. One was working in a
law office in Cleveland, and
one was taking postgraduate
work at Boston Tech.

was one Of mine," she went on
earnestly, "and if you'll let

WASHINGTON FASHIONS

FurlesS coats have been in
creaSing in fashion Importance
for several seasons. Last spring
we admitted that there were
few fur trimmed coats as smart
as some Of the coats without fur.
But in the winter it's a different
matter. They are just as well
spoken of in Paris and America,
but it's hard to find them with
enough warmth for the winter
winds. Most designers never
think Of making a really warm
winter coat without at least a
touch of fur. although they sell
them by the hundreds for spring
and fall wear.
High NeCklineS
But this fall the matter seems
to be taking a different aspect.
Already there have been several
splendid coats in the Washing
ton stores, Shug and warm, but
without a bit of fur. Some are
of soft woolens, with a little
collar high about the throat.
Others faSten far over to the
side, in the swagger manner
that is so youthful and becom-
ing. They are not in the least
the sort Of q coat that is lust a
fill-in for the person who can't
afford fur, for they're as smart
as the furred coats.
Now VeIVeteen
Velveteen now steps into the
fashion picture as a contender
with woods, and it appears in ex-
tremely good looking coats for
fall and winter wear. Velveteen
has the happy faculty of being
neither formal or informal, so
that you can make it do for any
thing from sports to afternoon.
We've Sketched an unusually
good looking velveteen coat,
with many new fashion features.
1t is scanned from the neckline
to the wrists, with slight puff
in the sleeve for neWneSS. 1t
has q high neckline, and un-
usually good lines. Notice that
it is so far from being either a
sports type in its cut, or a dress
type either, that you can imag-
inc wearing it almost anywhere.
1t comes in brown, wine, green
or black, and has a well-made
small brimmed hat to match.
1t is priced $16.50, including the
hat.
