Use of Lace.

Never has Summer season seen
such a diversity of evening fashions.
They embrace many silhouettes, count
less fabrics and practically all colors
Lace has played perhe ps the outstand-
ing role in evening fabrics, due largely
to the ingenuity of the lace looms,
which have given US so many types.

through the favored Chantillys and
Alencons TO the heavier fabric laces.
One OF the most interesting dresses
Of the bouffant silhouette seen this
Summer is in the use Of bands Of
Chantilly lace alternating with sheer
fabrics like chiffons or organza. Pa
quin showed delightful one recently
in Paris-White organZa with alter
nate bands of black lace, carried out
throughout the dress and across the
slim bodice. out to the puff sleeves.
. The charming contrast in materials
was matched by the startling color
contrast. which. of course, can be
carried out equally effectively in other
colorS.

Midsummer
Beauty DOS
And Don'ts''
Keep Figure Firm and
Trim-Avoid
Slumping.
BY ELSIE PIERCE.

IT'S not Summer, generally. but
Midsummer that brings signs Of
slumping. You see evidences Of it
here and there. On beaches partic-
ularly. You see parched skins and
dried-out hair. You see slumping sill
houettes. You see lack of meticulous
grooming. Everything goes in Sum
mer. Little details, which would never
be overlooked during the social season
Of Winter are passed over.
And one wonders why. True. the
heat makes one feel listless and un-
ambitious. True, sweltering dog days,
with their proverbial humidity, are
conducive to laziness-to be a spec
tator rather than to take an active
| part in sports. But there's the other
| side OF the story. There's mo.
leisure, more time for grooming ar
attention to details of good looks, nc
time for storing sunshine and vitalilr.
It's the reducing season If womeI
would only see it that way. With d
reasonable amount of exercise ard
a reasonable reduction in the diet it
should be easy to cut down on the
avoirdupois. The diet becomes very
easy because the body seldom Graves
the heavier. oily, fuel foods Of Winter
The only danger is in ice cream and
soda consumption, In rich dressings
on the salads (the salads, mind you,
are flneD. Appetizing salads encour-
age bread-and-roll consumption and
| defeat their own end-unless you have
| the will to pass up the biscuits.
But. unless the "don'ts" are care
fully observed, the pounds will roll
on and the Summers end will find
you with no end Of figure worries.
Speaking of figure woes by far the
worst of the slumps Gt borders on the
sloppy" - do hate that word
'slumping." but it's grephic) is the
shedding not Of weight but of the
foundation garment. Women who
wouldn't go without their girdle or
! corset for one mintue in the city put
their foundation away in camphor
! once they get to shore or mountain
resort. Of it goes and away goes
! every vestige of trimneSs. You'll find
that the heavier figures are the worst
offenders. too. The young and slender
ones wear foundations for firmness
and to avoid even a sign of wooble.
But the heavier ones. who put CON-
fort before smartness, allow mre-
strained curves to show themselves in
all their ueliness Eyes. unrestrained
curves are ugly. Isn't it worth a
little discomfort to keep the figure
frrer and flatter? AS matter Of
fact. with the clever lightweight, line
built garments Of today you don't
have to sacrifice comfort to achieve
that smart. trim. curve controlled
look-without sign Of slump.

First we learn that it is wise to
choose a perfume that bears a great

worldwide fame; then you will be
sure of having lasting quality and a
delicious scent. After you have shifted

If you are shy, perhaps you need
the stimulation of an intoxicating

meet sit up and take notice!
Chosen thus, your perfume will be

"I am no thief" he said. II am

their moneys worth. I gave them
something worth all the dollars they

"A UGUST is an appropriate time for

the place cannot be found at the

school library closed, ending. tempo
rarily, access to its books and the
quiet room.
When there are public libraries with
schildren's departments this is not as
unfortunate as when the school IL
.brary is the only one available, When
both are missing the loss is beyond
remedy. What is the situation in your
.town or neighborhood? What can
you do to help? Can you open the
school library? Can you make ar
rangements for the use OF the public
library in nearby town? Can you
form some sort of community reading
circle where books can be passed from
hand to hand daily?
Every household has some book or
books that children can read and en-
joy. Every village large enough to
have a group of school children boasts
of some woman who loves both books
and children and who knows how to
get them together. Rally around
her. send her all the books you can

Novelty in Luncheon Tables,

An attractive table seen at one of
the smart china departments recently
was set with white china and sparkling
crystal, and had luncheon mats made
of lace. The lace was about 2 inches
wide and had been interlaced together,
leaving open spaces about inches
square The crossings were tackled to
keep the cross pieces from slipping.
These looked very dainty, and on a
beautiful table the contrast of the
lace and dark wood made a very
pretty picture. Bridal wreath in a
low green glass bowl completed the
table. This was placed on one cor
ner. leaving the center open. 1t is
