Photo, by Underwood & Underwood, N. Y.) IN VELVETEEN AND CORDUROY Combination That Deserves the Popu- larity Which It Has Been Un- hesitatingly Accorded. Not every one can afford frocks of silk velvet, so velveteen was manu- factured as a substitute. It is lovely, and gives practically the same effect as silk velvet when made up. Velve- teen and corduroy are used to fashion many smart frocks for street wear. Plain colors are more frequently used for the velveteen models. They are effectively trimmed with fur, me- tallic laces, Persian or tapestry em- broidery. Velveteen does not adapt itself so successfully to draping as do the softer velvets, 8o the skirts are usual- ly plain or with pleated insets. The bodices are jumper effects, with guimpes of lace or chiffon. Corduroys in the soft-finished qual- ftics are extensively used. Frocks and coat suits are develop- ed of this material and seem to find a ready sale. The two-tone corduroys in brown and tan, blue and black and white are especially favored. In plain colors, dark blue, brown, black and burgundy are the shades more frequently used. BLOUSE This is a smart little blouse to be *orn with a costume skirt. It is in soft chiffon taffetas, with embroidery on ghe shoulders, center front straps e Nobody thinks of jumping on a chair at the sight of this little mousie —in fact, one can sit in perfect calmness while he gambols on one’s instep, For the mouse is really embroidered on the silken stocking. The embroidery is done on the thread silk stocking with mouse-colored silk and the effect is very natural and rather startling at first glimpse. MADE A DAINTY TEA TRAY | Pretty Thing Evolved by Clever Gir in a Most Economical and Sim- ple Manner. A novel and most economical way to make a pretty tea-tray was dis- covered by a girl who is very clever with her wits and her fingers. She first purchased for forty cents a large oval * picture frame from a second- | hand store, securing a very good bit | of natural old woodwork. Then' with & bottle of stain, some sand-paper and & little varnish she polished up the wood | to look like new, then screwed on two brass handles, one at each end, after- wards cutting a piece of pretty cre- tonne the same size as the glass, and pasting it smoothly where the picture would ordinarily go. Covering it with the boards that belong to the frame, tacked securely into place, the entire | back then being covered with a plece of felt, when she found herselt pos- ! sessed of a most fetching tea-tray, | which in the shops would cost from $5 to $8. | Care of the Skin, Before going to bed at night, sponge the face, neck and arms in a solution of cold salt water. You will find your- | selt awakening in the morning with i that desirable slight pink glow, which you so often see in the face of a child at this time. Another skin stim- u'ator iz a small piece of ice, placed in a soft plece of linen and rubbed gently over the entire face and neck, care being taken to reach every part of the surface about the eyes and eye- lids. This should not be done to ex- cess; and afterward the face should be gently but thoroughly dried, and & little cold cream applied. All cream that the flesh has not absorbed should be removed, especilally from the face that has a tendency toward being hirsute. Evening Dresses. The Greclan draperies and oriental colorings strongly dominate the very | exclusive evening dresses, says the Dry Goods Economist. Embossed vel- vet patterns on chiffon cloth, on charmeuse, on satin or brought out on cloth of gold and silver are utilized. Metallic brocades, gold and silver tis- sues. moire and plain cloth of gold and silver, as well as rich embroider- ed fabrics, are represented in many of the most favored models. Rich laces are also in favor, particularly | the finer varieties, such as Chantilly and Bohemian. Venise is used most- ly as a finishing touch on velvet models. | Extreme Effects. ?! d cuffs.

Vogue of Moire. Moire is being used extensively for Suits this fall, as well as for trim- mings. There are several classes of moire, including the moire antique, the moire velours and the regence. The latter denotes the ribbed weaves as applied to the moires. The change- able and chameleon effects are shown in the moires quite as often as the Piain. The taffeta moire has a beau- tiful but mot too sharply defined wa- tery effect which makes it very desir- able. This fabric has almost ousted the changeable taffeta. trousers. The pannier is slightly gathered into the walstband and falls between the knee and the ankle, over ! a plain narrow skirt; so that the full- ness lays over it. This style is us- ually carrled out in the flowered silks or chiffon that suggests the modes of Louis XIV. ! Fur in Neckwear. I Among the distinctly new ideas in neckwear are the novelties in which tiny bands of fur are utilized on the collar portion and, in some instances, on the jabot, is the statement made in a recent issue of the Dry Goods Economist. THE EVENING TELEGRAM, LAK REQUISITE FOR BEAUTY FINE COMPLEXION A THING THAT IS INDISPENSABLE. | Too Much Care Cannot Be Given h! | This Important Matter—Espe- clally In Cold Weather ls the Need Great. The complexion should have the Dest of care at all times, but espe- clally is this necessary during the days of the late fall and when the winds of winter begin to blow. The change from the warm nmurl days when the pores are open and the skin relaxed to the raw weather that shrivels up the skin and causes & drawn feeling over the entire surface of the body, is very trying, and Is often followed by a condition that re-| quires prompt treatment. Feeding the skin is the first step, and this must be faithfully carried out. The action of the wind, particu- larly when it is driven against the face by the rapid motion of an automobile, tends to dry out the matural ofl and leave the skin dry and harsh. Then, too, the muscles of the face become stiff and tense and these must be made to relax and grow pliable and elastic. To accompAsh these two require- ments nothing is necessary but & good cleansing cream as first ald fol- lowed by a facial bath in very warm water and ending with the use of & nourishing cream which must be care fully massaged into the pores. The cleansing cream must be used always upon coming indoors before any wa- ter is allowed to touch the face. The nourishing cream may be applied gen- erously and it should be used as & foundation for the protecting powder before exposing the face to the wind and weather. Among the many directions that can be given for the prevention of harm to the complexion, none is more im- portant than the careful drying of the skin after using water, and the still more careful rinsing after soap has been used. These two rules admit of no deviation. Never under any circumstances ex- pose your face or hapds to the cold after bathing them without thorough- ly drying the skin. This does mnot necessitate the use of rough towels or any unnecessary friction. Gently pat- ting the skin with a soft absorbent towel 18 much better than severe rub- bing and to make sure the skin is free from molsture a tiny bit of cream rubbed into the pores, immediately after the drying process, is excellent and is a good preventive of & chapped surface. The careless habit of biting the lips must be avolded it they are to be kept smooth and nice. All that has been said about the care of the face applies equally well to the hands. In fact greater care must be given them,as the hands are in water so frequently. Plenty of cleansing cream rubbed into the hands before washing them, the use of a soothing lotion immediately after dry- ing them, and the very liberal appli- cation of a massage cream will pre- vent the chapping which often occurs when the cold begins to grow penc- trating. Little time is required for this dally care and much trouble can be avoided by observing these small detalls. e i S e e e et —————————————————— ANSWERS TO QUERIES, Miss Elise J. K.: Even though you are not handsome and magnetic, you can still be a very attractive girl. Keep yourselt alwayf well groomed. cleanly and dressed in good taste. Bo cheerful and agreeable. Dress your hair becomingly without attempting any of the extreme styles which usually make the prettiest face un- attractive. Keep your complexion clear, your eyes bright and your mind free from morbid notions, and you will find that you are quite as much sought afer as your friends who you think have such an advantage over you, as far as “good looks” are concerned Priend: If you use powder every day—elther dry or liquid powder— you will find it absolutely mecessary to give your face a thorough cleans- ing at night, else the pores will be- come clogged and the skin will grow muddy looking. .Use cleansing cream first, followed by a faclal bath in warm water and mild soap. Rinse in clear warm water and finish with & dash of cold water. If the skin is inclined to be dry, a little of 'he | eream should be rubbed om after (wards. If there is a tendency to the | formation of wrinkles, a nourishing cream 18 necessary, and it there are deep lines, wrinkle plasters are very helpful in smoothing them out.
