1t should be black and worn with
big black hat! 1t has a two piece look
achieved by draped folds over the
hips; skin tight sleeves and high
neck, accentuated with large hunk
Of that costume jewelry that remains
ever popular.

and due to the war We'll be back in
straight short skirts again. Alright
for the slender wisp of a girl but you
plump gals better start your eXercis-

summer, look smart and feel comport-
able by wearing all white, with all
black accessories.

or three bathings a day is very rest
full to tired eyes and beneficial to red
or granulated eyelids.
A rich tissue or eye cream applied
at night will do wonders for prevent

For Better HOmemaking
Bring out that old heavy dark Vic
torian furniture you have stored in
the attic and paint it white! Take off
the old horsehair coverings and up
nOlSCer IL III gay cnlnCZ, or ping vel
veteen. The secret of using these
pieces effectively in a room is to
think of them chiefly as accents.
Small accessories such as bouquets Of
wax flowers with their glass dome
covers do much to make the Victorian
pieces feel right at home.

Scratches on walnut or mahogany
furniture may often be darkened with
touch of iodine and waXed or polish
ed with good furniture polish.
If your room has two narrow Win
dows close together, your room will
appear more spacious if you treat the
two windows as one unit, using simple
straight hangings at the outer sides,
graceful valance across the top, and,
if you wish, a single length of ma
terial concealing the wall space be-
tween.
