When the dressmakers declared their war on black they evidently felt it could not be done wisely and well unless they substituted some- thing violent for what was dull and conservative. They took up the psy- chological trick of substituting one worry for another. Human beings rather like their old worries and yains, for them know how to adjust themselves to them _through the mental gymnastics experience has taught, but the aclentists are all for changing one form of thought into another whenever there is the slight- est suggestion of trouble in one or the other. It may be progress, but one doubts that it is improvement. 1f they are acting on this principle, they have taken a violent way of carrying it out. They have stopped trying to supplant biack with gray and mauve. They have taken bright gold and scarlet as the combination to defeat black. Young girls are de- lighted with the change, and they are not hesitant to accept the full skirt with its Spanish flounce effect in gold lace. They like the flag red slips in chiffon over which are placed one-plece frocks of silver net covered with a bold tracery of silver em- ‘broidery. They think Egyptian green with this same silver lace overslip 18 fetching, and it is. Here in Washington, where society has been excessively gay under the Harding administration,” the young set and their slightly older married sisters are wearing the Spanish hoopskirt with the straight, tight bodice that Lanvin and Poiret begged women to adopt last September. They forsake black and fashion these pictorial frocks of red and gold lace, which is the new ery. Just why Paris and America took up with the several shades of bright red after the season had started with other colors is not easy to tell, but they did, and that is the important point. Flag, scarlet, flame, hibiscus, poin- mettia, are the shades. Nothing meek and modest, as you see; something vaunting and screaming aloud its own merits. These colors are not subdued with black or gray or mauve, as at the beginning of the seasom They are heightened with the most shining metal lace. Gold has replaced silver to some extent. At least, that is the strong effort made by the people who overn fashions. The idea of a lace ounce placed at the knees on a thered skirt is as old Spain, who spread it through the civilized world en she, and not France, was the biter and judge of what women should wear. It is not new to even the youngsters, as it has been more or less in the fashions for three but its revival is not now credited to the influence of old Spain, but to the coming domination of more northern countries, where the peasant costumery invariably in- BEAUTY CHATS - Colors of Medieval Italy BY ANNE RITTENHOUSE.

There is no attempt to bring back the appearance of a corseted figure with these wide skirts. Dressmakers are clever enough to overcome the problem by a straight cuirass bodice which slips down to the hipline. BY EDNA KENT FORBES. Beautiful Teeth. There is a widely printed ad which informs us somewhat lugubriously that nine people out of every ten are going to get pyorrhea some day if they don’t watch out. The worst part of the ad is that it's quite true. ‘We all seem to take our teeth for granted until a toothache or a re- ceding gum warns us that something as to be done Immediately. It's also probably true, as another ‘widely printed ad .declares, that a clean tooth never decays. This means that the teeth should be burshed twice every day in such a manner as to take the film from them and to get out every particle of food that hiddes between them. The teeth &hould be brushed up and down from the gums to the ends with a moder- ately stiff brush and a generous amount of good tooth paste. The brush should run over the gums a trifle, 80 that the bristles will stimu- late and make the gums healthier. The English have a tecrible habit of having their teeth pulled when the slightest trouble occurs. Many doc- tore argue that unsuspected troubles ‘behind apparently healthy teeth cause &1 sorrts of disorders. The American idea, on the other hand, is that no amount of work is too great if the tooth can be saved. The ideal method is to take care of the teeth so well that there will be very little trouble. This talk is only a suggestion for daily care of the teeth—the brushing that should come after breakfast and before bedtime: the rinsing with some antlstptic if there is any tendency to ‘The Wheatena Company, acid mouth, the use of a soft wooden toothpick (in privacy) to remove par- | ticles of food lodged between the teeth.

There is a sense of coming spring even on the dampest and gloomiest day of midwinter if you go shopping to feast your eyes on the new cot- ton materials already on display in the stores for you to choose from in planning your early spring wardrobe. | These are veritable harbingers of | spring and when they first appear on | the scene shortly after Christmas they somehow start our fagged pulses to beating more quickly. We may have forgotten for the time just what a gay, festive, bright time spring and young summer really are. Cottons are specially pleasant fabries. 1In the first place, we are now permitted to wear bright colors again, and now the manufacturers of cottons have employed as skilled colorists and de- signers in the making of cottons as do the silk manufacturers. And cot- tons take the colors in a way that is all their own. You know for your- self_that bottle green, lemon yellow, | or henna, for Instance, appear en- | tirely different in an English sateen | than in a silk satin. Again, these colors have a quality all their own | when we find them in organdie or gingham. The lover of color cannot but get joy out of seeing how these different’ cotton textures reveal the beauties of color. ‘And even though you are not| thinking of Palm Beach, it is ne = too soon to busy yourself with thin dresses for spring and summer. It is something of a tonic to work on these bright fresh fabrics when damp winter Is still in the air and when spring lags at the threshold, taxing our patience. 4 Calicoes and cotton sateens will still play an important part in the higher quality of children’s and| women's frocks, and there are many of these to be had in foulard eflectni with white or colored ground. Ging- hams will be as much sought after as last season in plaids and checks, and there are some new stripes in ginghams that may be made use of | in combination with plain colored gingham to very good advantage. Dimities promise to be in greater favor than within the past few sea- sons and you won't go wrong in se- lecting at least one linen. Things You’'ll Like to Make What could be nicer tor keeping | baby's bonnet spic nad span than a| kiddy bonnet box? Use any heavy cardboard or wooden box of a com | venient size for the foundation. Pad| it outside with cotton. (Glue a layer of sheet cotton on each side.) Cover it with silk or dainty cotton material, | which has been embroidered as!| shown; or use a pretty cretonne. Line the Inside with quilted material, ailk‘ of cotton to each side, like a hinge, before lining the box. Stitch a piece of cotton to ecah side, like a hinge, to keep the cover from falling back too far. Stitch a piece of silk elastic across the inside of the cover. You will find it convenient for holding baby's gloves. Glue a small wooden or pasteboard stand to the bottom of your kiddy's bonnet box. This makes a wonderful gift to give to a small child.
