corrective goggles. Whereas, the
poor vain female of the species will
attempt to stumble about for years
with near-sighted squirt rather than
impair her popularity with pair of
horn-rimmed beauty destroyers. No
doubt Dorothy Parker's famous COUP
let has contributed much to the i'm
preston: "Men seldom make passes at
girls who wear glasses" Take nv
own personal experience: | developed
myopia at the impressionable age of
thirteen, and mother being the sensi-
bic person that she is, promptly had
me fitted for not one-but two pair
of corrective eyeglasses. And be-
lieve it or not, but all during nv sub
deb years, l refused to wear either
pair trimmed or rimless) except in
dire emergencies. All because |

horror of becoming wall flowers and
glasses particularly heavy-rimmed
ones) do seem to contribute to the
dreaded plight. Thank heaven, all
that fear is passed, what with the
modern methods Of the modern opto-
metrist. :. Of course if YOU are en-
dowed with SIS, you can acquire a pair
of the new invisible contact lenses that
are worn by many actresses and mod
els. But for the majority, the general
eyeglasses are more practical for con.
slant use. So if the condition of
your eyes requires your wearing glass
es, please stop worring about their
effect upon your existence. Many a
pretty woman has looked at life
through eyeglasses and she has been
just as successful, attractive and
popular as if she didn't wear them. >,

catastrophe the youngest set has
chosen to consider it. Today's op-
tIclans are truly artists in that they
study the lines and contours of your
face and then prescribe specially
shaped frames and tinted lenses that
make goggles almost unnoticeable.
Please remember this, though: Eye
glasses definitely require a brimmed
hat but do pick a snappy chic brimmed
hat with the knowledge that nothing
is so attractive to men as hat with
a brim. . In fact, nine men out OF
ten definitely refuse to recognize the
current crop of chapeaux as hats; yea
many have even been known to CRY
out in their sleep for a real hat with
an honest-to-goodness brim. This in
itself should be consolation for any Of
you sissies who need any. :.

w HAT are you doing about
w plaids, stripes, dots and checks
in print silks for your spring and
summer frocks, for your redingote
or bolero costume suits and for the
many blouses you will need to COM
plete smart wardrobe? If you have
not already done so, you really
should take steps in this matter, for
one or the other of these types has
practically become a "must" in the
up-to-the-minute clothes collection.
Your choice is in no way limited,
for every type from classic checks
and stripes to color-glorifed plaids
are represented and it's ditto for
dots. Quaint checks in conventional
sizes and simple two-color treatment
which return to vogue with the
southern belle" fashions, inspired
by the movie version of "Gone With
the Wind" are at their best in stiff
silks, such as taffeta or taffeta-ized
silk crepe. These checks are as
stylish for mother as they are for
daughter, and as chic for evening
as for day wear. Reminiscent of
Civil war days is the dress shown to
the right in the illustration. 1t is
of black and white checked silk tat
feta with deep square decolletage
both front and back. Dainty white

also will the dotted patternings.
There's no end to stripes. They
start pin-stripe size and continue to
run the gamut into wide, wider, wild
est versions. To be had, are the
prim and quaint Victorian stripes
mostly just one color on white, or
If you are style alert you'll want
silks in the handsome wider direc-
toire stripes, or if you have gone
gypsy as is the way of fashion this
spring you will insist on stripes in
vivacious coloring for a full skirt
to wear with your new sheer white
blouse. With your navy or black
suit you'll be right in style if you
wear a hat of Spanish stripe silk
and carry bag to match.
Simple stripes, one color on white,
are quite a featured theme in the
latest fashions. See the dress CEN
tered in the group. 1t is made of
black and white striped taffeta. It
has the old-fashioned look that is so
decidedly new-fashioned for spring
and summer 1899.
You will not be able to resist the
new plaid silks such as fashions the
stunning daytime dress pictured to
the left in the foreground. Solid
blocks of color form the plaid in
this printed silk crepe dress. It's
the last word in chic, is this strik-
ing and youthful dress with its swing
skirt that measures yards and yards
about the hemline. The bodice is
draped and is detailed with soft
knotted bow. The lingerie touch is
introduced by a band of white
mousseline de sole, edging the neck
line and the sleeves.
These plaid silks are just the thing
for the blouse you will wear with
your navy or black or the new navy
green suit that is causing such a
furore in Paris. Capes and jackets
lined with plaid silk are on the style
program, too, as are also the new
petticoats that are the style sensa-
ton of the moment.

bridge prize? Here is a suggestion
in the way of gift sure to be well
coined by your most fastidious
bridge-winning guest-a "set" of
dainty receptacles that will keep
dainty lingerie neckwear and hand
kerchiefs and household linens fresh
and unwrinkled in closets and
dresser drawers. These most prac-
teal as well as attractive novelties
are made of composition board COW
cred in handsome washable white
leatherette with a wide silk elastic
band holding the top and bottom
pieces (between which your lingerie
"pretties" are placed) together.
Note how pridefully the lady pic
tured is laying one of her most
treasured handkerchiefs between the
protective covers of these dainty
cases. This "hanky" is a perfect
gem in that it has been especially
designed by Merlene, a young girl
who directs her artistry to creating
fiower-patterned handkerchief. 90

When you say gingham this sea-

or everyday utilitarian frock, for
gingham is now acclaimed as high
style for suits as well as dresses to
wear when you go shopping or stop
at the club for lunch. Be among

style parade, choose the handsom-
est bingham you can find, (they sure
are showing stunning patternings
and colorings this season. tailor it
in jacket-and-skirt fashion, OF red
ingote and skirt, or in costume man
ner Zone piece dress with redingote)
and we promise you that you will
be getting more wear out of this styl-
ish outfit than any you possess. The
new dainty white lingerie blouse sets
off a bingham suit to perfection.
Try it and see!
Wells, everywhere wells, nothing
less than a riot of wells! They pro-
vide basis for coloring in that the
color veil you choose should be
smartly matched with your gloves
and your boutonniere.
A cunning way and just about as
bewitching as fancy might picture
is to bring the veil down tight over
the top of your hat and tie it in a
monstrous bow under the chin. Tiny
straw sailors have yelling tied about

Every so often some one comes to
me with a story about "hating to
cook" and when such a person comes
to me usually feel very sorry because
a little patience and a great deal of
imagination are really the prime re-
ouisites of being an able cook. OF
course, the young housekeeper don't
expect to keep up with hubby's mother
at first, but if she keeps her eyes open
and reads and stays interested she'll
be- able to win her laurels some day
too
Here are a few recipes which are
positively guaranteed to satisfy the
most exacting taste. The cheese toast
is fine for a Saturday noon luncheon
or fol one of those late breakfasts Oh

Gated.

Late Styles Turn
To Tailored Suits

In the suit brigade for spring are
large groups of very strictly tailored
suits which have slightly longer than
hip-length jackets and skirts that
usually are gored or plated. Jack
cts bound around with braid are
frequently shown with such suits.
They come in smooth twills or
hard woolens, and are rather mas
culine-looking, but go with blouses
which are so sweet, feminine, and
dainty that they become girlish in
effect.
