Congress selections point that
out very clearly.
Button Back Smart
For instance, one of the most
popular was a dress we showed
a photograph of on Monday, of
checked shirting in wine red,
with interesting details such as
bone buttons up the back, a full
bodice and tight hiplfhe.
Noncrushable linen made sew

season it really seems to be
noncrushable, both in rough
homespun types and in fine
linen almost as soft and sheer
as handkerchief linen. Dresses
of these materials we're selected
and photographed, and you will
see them any day now, as well
as plain linens and novelty
silks.
This matter of color is i'm

winey rusts are good. Yellow

excellent, as are odd and off

In a kitchenette I doubt II
you will want to struggle with
trult-cake making-they are so
complicated, and take up so
much time to do. There are
wonderful ones already pre-.
pared in all the shops, which
can be purchased at very little
expense. These, when sliced.
and dainty arranged on a
platter, will be all the solid
refreshment needed, unless YOU
care to add a few nuts and

Bleached Hair

Dear Miss Shelby:
I had my hair bleached some
time ago. I have grown very
tired of it and would like some
thing to make it darker. I would
like your advice on it.
Around my nose my skin is
very red and it has whiteheads
around it. Sincerely, L. NC.
Dear Miss L. M. c.:
If you are tired of bleached
hair and want it to grow nor
NAL, just let it alone and let it
come back to normal. Keep it
clean and fluffy by careful sham.
pooing, brush it every day until
it shines with renewed luster.
Keep your scalp healthy and &C.
tive by frequent massage.
The redneSs around your nose
and the whiteheads are proba-
bly, due to poor circulation.
Exercise freely in the open air,
bathe daily, followed by a cool
shower or sponge and brisk
friction to bring up the blood.
Use warm water and a mild
soap with a flesh brush on the
whiteheads but not on the red
places. Eat simple, cooling
foods, such as salads and vege-
tables; drink at least eight
glasses of water daily.

Plain Coat

No matter how many fur or
fur-trimmed coats you may pos
sess, you will want a plain one,
especially if you go travelling a
great deal. A nice model is done
on long, slim lines, with per-
feet tailoring. A scarf collar OF
the pullthrough type crosses at
the left shoulder. Scarf and
coat are of reddish brown fine
