rae in 5 PAGE SIX pe Casper Sunday Crioune Paris has decreed it! And in sub- servience every smartly styled wo- man’s wardrobe for spring will in- clude at least one tailleur. There will also be a trig, close-fitting hat and tailored blouse that now boasts the name of “‘shirt.". What, then, could be more appropriate than that fasion arbiters develop the all im- portant accessories in equally tal- lored lines. By no means, however, has the tailored model in either the night robe the negligee completely usurped the high place of favor of the daintily lace trimmed garments that so truly express real femininity. Bosom Front Night Robe. Here one finds a delightful version of the new fad. Sleeves are set in and short after the manner of the sports blouse. The neck is V-shaped with a turndown sports collar. There ig a pleated inset bosom front that buttons down the front and often ends in a monogrammed tab, The popularity of this particular model depends on the ease with which one can launder the smart bosom front. Many women prefer the plainly tailored type which does not present this problem and is quite as effective. It is not difficult, how- ever, to preserve the individuality of this robe even without the pleated effect in the roll color and short, sports sleeves, Lacy New Robes. A greater variety of laces has never been used in fashioning dainty nightgowns. The popular filet and Irish laces appear often in combina- tions with laces of minor importance Calais and Valenciennes laces, very narrow and cream in tone are much in evidence. Crepe de chine is the or .

Paka Le, After 15 years’ work on an in- vention to remove snow from the streets with the minimum amount of labor, Mrs. Horatio N. Slater, wealthy society woman of New York and Massachusetts, is ready to complete the final details of the do- vice. Bolero Imitated In Sport Frocks NEW YORK, March 15.—Some of the sports frocks very cleverly imitate a bolero, The imitation is done by a manipulation of the broad stripes running through the fabric. - Practical A practical cape like this one becomes an invaluable possession in any wardrobe. This one has an upstanding ruched collar of self material and a shoulder yoke that gives the close, neat shoulder Uno po desirable this year. most popular silk used; crepe back satin and radium are also good. All peach, tea rose and apricot predomi- nate. Fundamentally it seems there are three distinct negligee sihouttes— the kimono sleeved wrap; the break- fast coat and the coat that opens down the front or perhaps ties at the side. When on views the many new models, however, it seems as if there are at least a half dozen, so cleverly varied are the neck and sleeve lines and fabrics. The fullness in many of Means of Do men take as good care of their clothes as women do of theirs? No, generally it is the women's job to take care of the men folks’ ward- robes or else the clothes are often sadly neglected. And even more im- portant than sewing on weak but- tons or torn pockets is the educa- tion of the average man on the art of taking care of clothes so as to Sain in appearance and,save money. Of course there are many things which mere man is generally not expected to do—but there are many others which the woman of the house should insist that he learn. There are little ways that man has which detract from his appearance and wear out clothes no matter how careful his wife may be. Take an insignificant thing lke tobacca crumbs in a coat pocket. They have been responsible for more “moth-holes” than the moths themselv The tobacco ferments and eats through the cloth—and the moths ar@é blamed. Any woman with a smpker in the house can save many @ollars by teaching him to clean out! his pockets, Moths do hot attack clean clothes —they breed only in darkness and dust. Before clothes are put away they should bé thoroughly brushed and cleaned and the place where they are to go should be aired and scrubbed. It is better to wrap clothes in newspaper sprinkled with moth preventive than to hang them for a long period, like the summer. If, when a man goes to buy a suit, he takes along his favorite chair and chooses the coat to fit the back of the chair, then it is alright for him to hang the coat on the back of the chair afterwards —otherwise it is not. Chair backs are usually not shaped like human backs and the common habit of hanging a coat on the back of a chair for the night results in un- sightly shoulders, wrinkles and bulging sleeves. Use only a proper- ly shaped hanger. The most valuable secret of. clothes economy is to give the clothes a rest every once in a while. Even steel, if it is constantly used, loses its resistance—gets what is called ‘metal fatigue.” Wool fibres are easiliy pressed out of shape and worn out by continuous use, whereas they recover their strength if left to rest. It is therefore im- portant that a man have at least two suits for regular wear. Two suits worn alternately will outwear three suits worn continu- ously until they are worn out, one after the other. This does not mean a “Sunday suit’—the day of the “Sunday suit’ is past. It means that a man saves many dollars in clothes by having at least two every-day suits. And, of course, no woman needs to be told about the economy of quality. The good fabric, the care- ful cutting and sewing, the fine trimmings—all these are cheapest in the long run. For the sake of sanitation, men’s clothes should be cleaned regularly for the sake of neatness they should “be pressed regularly. Very often big cleaning bills can be saved by a little first aid at home when clothes are stained. Here is what the home economics depart- ment of the House of Kuppen- heimer, which makes millions of dollars worth of men’s quality clothes every year, has found to be the best methods of taking out stains. Any woman with a little skill and « re can save money by following these hints: Candy or Sugar.—Apply cold water, Chewing Gum.—Use carbona and elbow grease. Coffee, Tea and Fruit.—Dip in hot clean solution of soda—1 pound to a gallon of water—then in hot soapy water. Should this not remove stajh, dip in ammonia and soda and hang in sun. Grass Stains—Rub with am- monia, wash in solution of soda— 1 pound to the gallon of water. Solution should be hot. Ink.—Soak the spot in strong salt water and rinse in strong solution of ammonia. Repeat if necessary, Mud—Sonk In kerosene and rinse In hot water, Nicotine.—Hot water and soap, 1 Ol and Grease Stains.—ilace the breakfast wrap coats is concern- trated at the center front and back Imitation Jewelry Claims Vogue in Fashion Centers NEW YORK, N.

The wide checks come in bright and dull color combinations, and the tailored shirt and plain hat are the proper accessories. * “‘Coolie’’ Costume For the Boudoir PARIS, March 15.—The costume in which some of the young girls lounge around their boudoirs is not to be distinguished from that of a Japanese coolie. There are the loose sleeves, the short loose trousers, and a generally masculine Japanese look. ————$ Miss Annie Furuhpelm, member of the parliament of Finland, is !ead- ing a movement for the repeal of the prohibition law in that coun- ——__— ..

After using her coffin for nearly 50 years as a dining table, a French woman was buried in it recently. ing rather milky, whereas the Jap- anese crystal is transparent and glistens like diamonds. Japanese crystals are more expensive than those imported from China. Square or tube-shaped crystal beads are more popular just now than round ones. They are usually strung with knots of white cord between each bead, although sometimes silver cord is used. When used as ear- rings crystal is always combined with silver or white metal. Cornelian, amber and jade are the favored semi-precious stones at present and these all have their imitations. Amber is so cleverly imitated that it takes an expert to distinguish the real from the imita- tion. Some of the imitations will even pick up paper and will not burn, so the only real test is the chemical one. dade Imitations. Jade is so expensive that every- one seeks the clever imitation. The Chinese are sending out soapstone jade, which is one of the best imita- tions on the market: Light Jade is always cheaper than dark jade. The white jade which has a milky white- ness is much in demand and can be easily imitated in soapstone. It is said that real jade is always ex- tremely cold, so this might be used as a simple test when one is in doubt. Blue turquoise matrix is also be- ing used for costume jewelry. ,This is cleverly imitated and made in bead chains, pendants and carved earrings. One cannot wegr too many brace- lets these days. Those worn above the elbow are favored as well as those worn about the wrists. Old fashioned bracelets are coming to the fore. . Sets are worn, one on each wrist. Old cameos used as center medallions in wide gold bracelets are very lovely. Since the cameo brooch has lost its charm in the fashion world, this offers a new use of the family cameo. Pendant earrings are more popu- lar than hoops at present. Very few faces can wear the hoop ear- rings effectively, while the pendant is becoming to almost everyone. ———————— Not all coats believe in. being severely plain this season even though simplicity is the rule.
