Season of Luxury
In Fabrics Seen

All signs point to season of
luxury especially in matter of fabric
elegance. The tendency is toward
dignifed trends rather than the
much-exploited little girl" fashions
that have been centering the stage
during past months.
Suits of stiff faille, rich brocades
for evening wear, imposing jewelry
accents emphasizing wide brace
let's, necklaces that have broad
collarlike spread and massive gold
effects in belts, and in clips all in
dictate return to elegance.
The play being made on fur bor-
derings that is being lavished on
coat, suit and frock, the revival of
old-fashioned passementrie, the
elaborate hand-embroidery and
countless such trends are reminis-
cent of the Victorian age of pomp
and glory. The fact of sleek fitted
dresses with in many instances the
long sleeve, the quaint back-fullness
treatments that modernize hustle eff
fects, fitted basques, laced-in cor
sets all portend the trend to greater
dignity in fashions.

IF THERE IS one theme more than
another about which fashion in
terest centers this fall, that theme
is the outstanding importance OF
fine, choice fabric In assembling
the autumn wardrobe the thought
to keep uppermost in mind is that
for the most part the style struc-
ture for the coming months is being
built around the idea of handsome
material made up with a studied
simplicity that achieves classic lines
which lead to well-balanced silhou-
cites bespeaking new dignity in
the mode.
The new wool Weaves are adding
a particularly exciting chapter to
the current story of fabric elegance.
In laying the foundation for the ear
ly fall wardrobe the idea of hand
some wool styled to a nicely with
emphasis on dramatic simplicity, is
making widespread appeal.
What to offset the amazing SIM
plicity of the dress or suit of swank
wool? The answer is gold jewelry ac-
cents. Which is one of the startling
items of news in the new seasons
trends. There is "gold rush" on
in fashions realm. Black with gold
is especially message that is being
flashed throughout the style centers
of the world.
Black wool jersey, particularly
smart indication for early fall, is
used for the fashion-right semi
tailored dress conferred to right
above in the illustration. Note, with
the bracelet-length sleeves the I'M
usually wide gold bracelet. This
matter of the wider bracelet is in
accordance with fashions latest de-
cree.
To further dramatic this modish
daytime frock of black wool jersey
there are gold clips that highspot
the lapel. Flattering too, are the
circle earrings.

flannel, beautifully fitted at the

breaking it into small bits as it
cooks. Then pour in the tomatoes,
and allow the mixture to simmer un-

spaghetti, which has been broken
into Pinch lengths and cooked until
tender in boiling sailed water. Then
add the can of corn, the Drowned
onions, and crisp bacon bits, and the
seasoning. Allow this mixture to
simmer slowly for another half
hour, covered.
Hasty Noodlefest.
Cook half a pound of noodles in
sailed water and drain. While they
are cooking, heat a can of cream of
mushroom soup, adding a cup Of
milk to it if it is the condensed
kind. Add also tablespoon of
chopped onion, " teaspoon salt and
two hard-cooked eggs, sliced. Add
the drained noodles, mix well and
put into buttered casserole. Cow
er the top with buttered crumbs
and bake IS minutes in moderate

Colored Diamonds

What is said to be the most
complete collection of colored dia-
monds in the world is that of Paul

els. 1t consists of ITO distinct col
ors, among which are pink, or
child, black, chartreuse, orange,
blue, peach and green diamonds.

many of the crown jewels and was

waist, breaks into pleats below the
hips. The high round neck practi-
cally demands a necklace and a
suitable one as here shown is of
gold links with gold knobs. The
wide link gold bracelet looks well
with the necklace and cunning
gold clip climaxes this jewelry en-
semble. The plaid hat crowns the
entire with glory.
Gold jewelry as a smart accent
to colorful tweeds has also become
a hobby with fashion. To the left
in the picture see deep bright
green tweed suit with a new collar
treatment and stitched detail down
the front of the jacket. The skirt
is widely gored. Take particular
notice of the gold and green tour
maine daisy pin with a diamond
center worn on the jacket. The
bracelets are Of the new large gold
link type. Gold stitched suede de-
scribes the hat.
A few notes in general in regard
to the new wool weaves follow. The
trend to smoother versions of the
velvety duvetyn order is apparent.
There are also many ribboned wool
ems. While black woolens are hav-
ing a widespread initial call, there
is also a big movement going on
among richly colorful tweeds and
other wool weaves gorgeously toned
in new shades of blue green and
flower reds with rust tones greatly
in favor for sports and travel wear.

Common Sense
About Constipation

A doctor would tell you that the
best thing to do with constipation
is get at its cause. That way you
don't have to endure it first and
try to cure it afterward-you can
avoid having 1t.
Chances are you won't have to
look far for the cause if you eat
the super-refined foods most
people do. Most likely you don't
get enough "bulk"l And bulk"
doesn't mean q lot of food. It
means a kind Of food that isn't

troubles on Capitol Hin hav.
stemmed from this untoward
event.
Mr.. Barley does not meet the
requirement that the occupant Of
the Butler vacancy be a Roman
Catholic. But Murphy, whose
recommendation will count I'M
less this obvious gesture toward
Democratic conservatives is car
cied out, does not believe that
one Of his churchmen should be
named at this time. The A. C.
feels his church should have rep
resentation on the high bench
but he does not insist that Ii
stake out a claim to any parti-
cular seat. He expects a jurist
OF another faith to retire within

Catholic should be named.

matter of common talk on and
off the board, will be retired and
perhaps shifted to less i'm
portant position. Member Leis-

ammunition of the Congressional
