Beads Lend Charm and Character P —————————— BY LYDIA LE BARON WALKER * THE BEADWORK OUTLINES FLORAL OR OTHER MOTIFS wmz THE sick EXTRA WEIGHT LENDS GRACE TO THE COSTUME. The woman who, through er other duties, is unable to I’lve :g: clal attention to the making of her own clothes often has enough time to add to the ready-made garment of moderate cost some touch which will distinguish it from others of its kind. ‘To any person of taste it is something of & shock to behold the exact counter- part of her own costume making its way down the street. The beauty of the dress, even if it has been a costly one, seems to have n lost. ‘The vogue for figured georgette this year has been pronounced, and such is the similarity among many of them that the discriminating woman seeks for something to set hor costume apart from the rest. A beautiful touch, as well as practi- eal one, i3 given to & figured chiffon or georgette by the inf luction of some very simple beadwork outlining occa- sional portions of .the pattern. The places where such embmlflery is greatest value are those where it will not only show to advantage but serve BEAUTY CHATS A Beauty Box. One woman I kiow has made a col- lection of small jars and squat bottles with tops thlt'rsm' on, mun ge keeps in a fairly large wooden box which she calls her beauty box. She ted the box jade green, to match pain i in a her bathroom, and pasted an old print on the lid, which she var- nished over so the whole box i wash- able. Inside she lined it with mottled book paper, and she ‘made three pads of silk over layers of cotton, to go at the bottom of the box, between two Jayers of bottles and over the top. 8o, when she travels, she has only to pack box in her suit case, and ewtythln- wants is sure to be taken alo ‘The box contains a jar of dnmsu cream, one of massage cream, one of cream, and & box of powder.

A nail buffer fits between two bottles and acts as a pad, and tissue napkins tuck in here and there and act as pads between the china and | tion, glass jars and bottles. The whole box is not very large; about 8 or 10_inches each way and 4 Ihches deep. Tt fits easily into even a small suit case.
