Silk may also be fringed or raveled to give interesting effects. Inch wide strips of taffeta silk cut on the bias may be raveled a little at either side and made into a shirring or ‘ruching to trim the edge of a full evening skirt.

You see the collar of the printed crepe silk dress gives a lengthened line, falling softly in rever fashion as it does over the coat of plain crepe silk. Both the coat and the dress are fin- ished with applied bands that have & um!en%l to ish bulk about the hips.

A WASHINGTON BY HERBER' IT is rather difficult to imagine Henry L. Stimson, Secretary of State and . No. 1 man in President Hoover’s cabinet, in the role of wisecracker and jester. Stimson utterances and statements are invariably given in the most seri- ous manner. No jocularity is evident, ‘whether it be at an informal conference with newspaper men or in an as- sembly of interna- tional importance. But he can be facetious, it seems, when he cares to be. And especially if he is among the members of that profession with which he has been 7/ associated so long —law. At a luncheon the other day of t h e Washington B a r_ Association the Secretary of State Introduced Ambassador Claudel of France. The Ambassador, for the PFrench bar, was to present to the American bar a set of Sevres porcelains valued at $2,500. The gift was an outgrowth of .a visit American lawyers made to Europe in 1924, Stimson_elected to kid the lawyers. Probably it was his purpose to steer clear of anything like an official utter- | harm: ance. Whatever his reason, he appar- ently forgot affairs of state completely when he proceeded to razz those who had made that European trip. He likened the visit of American law- yers “to the defenseless coast of Britain” to the “Biblical swarm of locusts.” “The price of silk hats rose on the exchange of London 50 per cent. . . . 36, 33, 40, 42, 44 and 46 inches bust.| Wool crepe, shantung and many rayon novelties-suitable.

Then either going to sleep interferes with digestion, or digestion of the hearty meal inter- feres with sleep.

C., Shall We Make It Harder to Marry? -Day orot Ix; %5 _ for License Tfll tendency among our lawmakers seems to be to make marriage harder and divorce easler. They are tightening up on the tie that binds at one end, and loosening it up at the other. Several of our States are virtually handing out quick-order divorces while you wait, and in others the granting of a marriage license is held up for several days after the application is made for it. In Wyoming, for instance, a bill has been passed requiring a five- day notice of intention to marry. This is primarily intended to save young whoopee-makers, who have mistaken a spirituous affinity for a spiritual one and a mutual taste in cocktails as evidence that they are estined mates, from waking up and finding themselves united for ife to perfect strangers. I’r will give the romantic, who have thought themselves madly in love and that they had found the only he and she under some glamorous moon and with the saxophone sobbing in the distance, an opportunity to analyse their emotions and’ take & good long look at the party of the other part before they close the contract and sign on the. dotted line. Many & boy and girl who looked a shelk or & Sheba when they were all dolled up at a party laok & little common and shopworn and not much of a bargain when seen in their everyday clothes in the cruel glare of midday. ~ ] 1KEWISE, five days would give even the most optimistic a chance “to think it over, and do s little figuring on how they were to eat, and how those who had never been able to support themselves were going to be able to provide for a family. And inasmuch as blessings brighten as they fade it would give those who love their liberty a chance to make a final clutch at their freedom before it was too late. IT would prevent those tragically idiotic marriages that take place on a dare, or for & joke, or because it seemed romantic to elope. For the very essence of an adventure consists in quick action, and a joke peters out pretty thin in five days, and papa and mamma would effectually stop the runaways if given notice of their fatal intentions. I HAVE long contended that if it took as much time and money and thought and legal proceedings to get a marriage license as it does to get a divorce, it would do more than any other ane thing to stop divorce, « because it would not only prevent so many ple from getting married when they should not get married, but it would make men and women very certain that they wanted to wed before they ever went to the expense and trouble of getting married. If men and women had to go into marriage soberly and intelligently; if they were forced to take enough time to think over the seripusness of the undertaking into which they were about o enter; if they had to prove their fitness for It, and if none but responsible adults were permitted to get married, it would save many a wrecked home and many & broken heart, [JOR there is mo truer saylng than “marry in haste and repent at leisure.” The marriage that is contracted without thought and with N0 more reason for being than a passing fancy is bound to end in disaster, and if there i% any way of stopping these grab-bag weddings it will be a benefaction to humanity. Divorce is not the cure-all for them that these gay matrimonial plungers think it is. For marriage does something, even to the most frivolous, so that they are never quite the same again. And divorce does not blot out the memories of wrongs and fights, and tears, nor send little children back into the limbo from which they came. THAT is why it will be a good thing to make it harder to get married. Perhaps if it cost more time and money to get a marriage license people would value them more highly and not scrap them so often.

Managing Unruly Hair. ‘There are two types of hair that are particularly hard to manage. One is the bristly, stiff type—either straight or | kinky.

There are rinses and Q{Ku of coiffures especial- ote two sorts of hair. however, that the textute of hair cannot be radically changed, and‘that there are, therefore, definite limits to what can be done for it. hair is naturally coarse and stiff. But some that was originally normal be- i Rinse after five minutes comes stiff after too much waving with heat or from overbleaching. For like this, a vinegar rinse is often helpful. First, shampoo the hair as usual, Iather- ing and rinsing at least four separate times. Rinse out every trace of soap. Now mix half & cupful of vinegar with three pints of water. Wet the hair thoroughly with the mixture, leaving it on for three to five minutes. Rinse in clear water and dry. This rinse t¢nds to make the harsh hair softer. It is specially recommended for permanently waved hair that is too kinky. Stiff hair is somewhat more of a prob- lem when bobbed than when long.
