There's a new batch of stock
ings in town, in tone called
'Tingle.' or to be more exact, in
two tones. because they are in
two-tone effect, and are iridescent
That's hard to understand in
print, 1 know, but then the stock
ings must be seen to be appre'
ciated, and that's up to you
They are a sun tone, not too OBJ
vious. but they have a bit of red
in the cast. which is what makes
them so attractive. They are par
ticularly effective with black or
with white, and will do quite a
bit to flatter your legs, and to
set off your costume. They are
in sheer two-thread construction.
Overtone of Color
Our other hocSrv news looks
forward to fall. AS hosiery colors
for autumn are already being an
nounced, we can tell you that
they will have more relation to
costume colors than they have
had in the past. The tones will
still be on the beige and brown
tones, but will be overcast with
the colors that will be fashion
able for coats, suits and dresses.
Shorter skirts are no doubt re-
sponsible for all of this. When
stockings show a good deal, we are
much more particular about them.
This is the year for all of you
with good legs to make the most
of them, to wear the best stock
ings you can possibly afford, and
be sure you get them in color
that is flattering and smart. There
has been considerable talk Of lace
inserts and other fancy business
returning in stockings, but few
signs of it so far.
To jump from stockings to cor.
seting-the latter subject is OF
great Importance right now, for
there is a great deal of indica.

Beauty
Erase Excess
Fat
By HELEN FOLLETT

walking is a delightful form of
exercise, but ii won't do much
for the woman who Is overweight
and wants to regain her slender
figure. "A Woodworking, highly.
energized woman will burn UP
about 500 calories in walk Of six
or seven miles. If she is heavy
eater, her intake will be several
thousand calories daily. so she
doesn't get far in her battle for
reduced proportions.
The thing she should do is close
her eyes to foods that build
adipose tissue. They consist Of
sweets, starches and fats. Only q
small amount of each is necessary
to supply energy to healthy in
dividual. She should eat green
salads, vegetables that grow above
ground, lean meats, eggs, fish,
poultry and fruits.
A certain amount Of exercise Is
important. Twisting, bending and
kicking exercises strengthen mus
cleS and shake off superfluouS fat.
A gym course is helpful.
The trouble with the fat girl is
that she falls off the diet wagon.
She must have a strong will.
Obesity is an undesirable condl-
ton that invites diseases Of the
heart, liver, kidneys and digestive
apparatus. AS for appearance
why mention that? She knows
facts.
Light-haired sisters suddenly
discover that the golden halo be
slowed by the fairy godmother is
getting furnished. The hair shafts
are still blonde at the tips but as
they push out from the scalp they
take on a darker shade.
This isn't such a calamity as
some women fancy. If lines have
appeared and the bloom Of youth
has departed, drab hair has a
softening influence. But the
blonde is likely to rebel against
her fate. She flirts with the
peroxide bottle. Not knowing the
effects of this chemical she is
often in for a sad experience.
Overwhelming takes place, the
hair becomes harsh and jute-like,
the color lacks character.
Beauty shops are given condi-
tioning treatments. Hot oil is
used freely to soften the hair.
Then the locks are touched up
with a coloring agent. Usually the
best selection is a drab blonde.
Many a platinum has decided on
chestnut as solution to her
beauty difficulties.
Dyeing and bleaching are the
hardest jobs a beauty operator
has to tackle. Yet many a woman
who knows nothing about the
business will go gayly at the task.
She has a good chance of pouring
troubles on her head, as she finds
out later to her CONSERVATION.
For the dry shampoo use corn
meal. Orris root Is all right, but
is more difficult to brush out.
Both pick UP oil and dust and
clean the shafts to q certain
extent.
To put on either one use a large
tin salt shaker. Let it remain on
for is minutes, then brush away.
Give a final grooming with q
brush, the bristles Of which have
been covered with absorbent cot
ton.
