are excellent when split, buttered and
toasted, served with the juicy stew.

A N INNOVATION in fashion
~ shows was staged this week by
~ one of our up-to-the-minute
- shops by focusing attention on
the importance of accessories and the
big part they play in creating the
smart Spring ensemble. Everything in
accessories from A to 2 was shown in
the most delightful manner, grouped
together according to suitable ccm-
binationS of colors and displayed in a
special room set apart for the purpose
quite like an exhibition of art objects
On all sides of the room we're tables
like round portable bars with selec-
ton of the proper accessories for a
pleasing and correct ensemble. A lit
tie time spent in studying these group
ings would solve the problem of what
to wear with what and not only elm
mate all doubt on the subject, but give
you the whole story in nutshell so
much better and more graphically
than you could possibly get it from
unrelated displays of merchandise. no
matter how fascinating the individual
items might be.
At intervals mannequins strolled
about showing various suggested COM
binations of accessories for suits and
dresses. Shoes, furs, corsets, perfumes.
jewelry, were all included. For those
who missed this interest showing, or
perhaps would like to recall some Of
the suggested combinations, we will
review some of the high lights.
GRAY, being such an important

of honor in the exhibit nearest the
entrance, and the first choice Of con-
trast was Lido violet. Here were bou-
quets Of violets, violet-colored cherries,

all in that rich deep violet. and also

attractive group of accessories includ-

Fine Facial
For Hands
Suggested
Rough, Chapped Skin
Responds Quickly
to Treatment.
BY ELISE PIERCE.

IT'S been a very, very severe Winter
= and the hands, being one Of the
vulnerable spots have suffered plenty.
Even those who are accustomed to
giving the hands faithful care, COM
plain that they could not Withstand
the havoc Of the extreme cold and
wind. Even some parts Of California
and Florida had unusual, most un-
usual, weather these past few months.
. Hands have way Of showing strain
very quickly. They become red and
rough and look dark and wrinkled.
But, fortunately, they respond just
as quickly to care. They are GER
tainly worthy of a treat occasionally,
80 treat them to the same fine prepa-
rations you use for your face and
watch them soften and whiten under
the kindly influence.
Here's a treatment you might try
either in conjunction with or indie
pendently of the home manicure. Sim
liar treatments are being given in
some of the finest salons in the
country, but you can easily follow the
routine at home.
First. cleanse your hands with
cleansing cream. Remove with
tissues. Then, heat little muscle
or facial oil over low fame. Sweet
almond oil or a pure grade Of olive
or mineral oil will do. Have the oil
lukeWarn, or a little warmer-but not
hot or it may scald. Dip large pads
of cotton into the oil. apply over the
hands. Then slip on loose pair
Of cotton gloves, or better yet, bandage
over the cotton pads to keep in place.
And if convenient, leave the oil on
overnight. Then proceed with the
rest Of the treatment in the morning.
Otherwise, leave the oil on as long
as possible. Wipe Of excess oil. apply
q good emollient cream or just
little Of your facial nourishing cream
or skinfood. Massage thoroughly.
Remove with tissues.
Finish by patting with skin tonic.
Dust with a little fine quality tai
cum powder. In place of the talcum
little finishing cream, the non-greasy
variety, may be used.
Here's a fine facial for your hands.
And you'll find that it sounds much
more complicated than it really is.
Two or three such treatments and
your hands should show a splendid
improvement.
Full directions for the home mani
cure and further care Of the hands
are outlined in my hand bulletins
which will come to you on receipt of
self-addressed, stamped (3-cent) en-
velope.
