Shapes in Lace—Upstand

New York Sept., 27,1913.
School girl or grandmother, debut-
ante or matron, of home making
taste, or business capacity, every
woman is at this time of the year
interested in the subject of new head-
wear. Velyet shapes are generally
seen early in September, even though
torrid temperatures prevail, and so
accustomed have we become to this
fad, that a velyet hat topping a lin-
gerie frock has ceased to seem in-
congruous.
NEW SHAPES.
Small hats lead, some of them so
small that they are just sufficient to
form a base for the towering trim.
mings of wired net, tulle, lace, or
upstanding butterfly feathers which
are the favorite garnitures shown.
While sold crowns are most worn
there are many shapes stifly mod-
elled, some of the prettiest, with little
or no brim except at the left side
where the brim turns up high
above the top of the crown, with a
butterfiy, or antennae like feathers
poised at the top of this flare, in a
way that adds much to the height
of the wearer. Flat niniche shapes,
in shirred silk or transparent lace, as
well as in veivet, are built up with
high trimmings at the back, where
they turn up to display the coiffure.
These and many other models
are very often fastened with the
“Tommy Atkins’’ chin strap, which
is gaining ground, and is a boon to
the woman whose chin needs help,
though. truth to tell it’s the very
young contingent who use this de-
vice most. The strap gives a very
saucy air when attached to one of
the high, drum shapes that are al-
most or quite brimless and a rather
prim demure look where the hat has
a drooping brim.
For auto wear, and general knock-
about use, shapes of plush made up
without stiffening, and which pull
down well over the ears, are prime
favorites. A very small hat of this
genre seen recently was of purple
taffeta silk, cut in strips and braid-
ed like a straw, then serve in a
shape half hood, half hat, but alto-
gether smart looking and comforta-

quite as well defined in these, as in
the old-time tight-fitting bodice.
Vest blouses, which simulate a man’s
vest, only that the front and back
are built of the same material, come
nearest to the old time fitted bod-
ice which is threatened by designers
but which still lingers in the back-
ground. These ‘‘Vestee waists,’
have sleeyes of thin material, silk,
lace, chiffon or marquisette, which
usually contrast in color as well as
in fabric. Very smart models of this
type show the vest of brocade and
the sleeve repeating one of the colors
of the figured stuff. These are es-
pecially good, with the cut away
coats, which require a vest to com-
plete their effect.

CURES PIMPLES EASILY.
Quickly of all Eruptions.
For several weeks past 8S. E. Thor-
ley has done a big business in selling
Hokara, the skin healer that has
won so many friends in Meyersdale.
It ha: seen found {to heal not
only all ininor skin trouble like
pimples, blackheads, acne, herpes,
scaly scalp, complexion blemishes,
itching feet, piles, etc., but also the
worst ulcers or even chronic eczema
and salt rheum. There has yet to be
found any form of wound or disease
affecting the skin Qr mucous mem-
brane that ‘Hokara does not help,
and its action is so quick that those
who try it are simply delighted with
it right from the start. !
In spite of its unusual curative
powers, the price is trifiing. To con-
vince every one of its merits S. E.
Thorley will sell a liberal jar for
25c. And remember that if you do
not think it does what it claims,
you get your money back. You cer-
tainly can afford to try it on this

The Accommodating Salt.
There isn’t a better friend in the
household than salt, and one can’t be-
gin to remember the half of the
things it will gladly do for us if but
given the opportunity.
Balt sprinkled over a carpet after
itis swept will brighten the colors

A pineh of salt in water will help
to keep cut flowers fresh.
To clean a white knit sweater or
shawl put it into :a flour bag con-
taining equal parts of flour and salt
and shake well. By washing will be
required after this process.
For cleaning enamel bathtubs, ete.,
rub with a cloth saturated with ker-
osene, upon which has been spread a
layer of/ salt. Afterward rinse tub
with warm soapy water.
Before washing soiled handker-
chiefs allow them to soak in cold
water into which has been put a
handful or so of salt. This makes
them much easier to wash.
Before washing new goods let
stand in salt water to set the color.

low the natural waistline and go up
to a height of eight to twelve inches.
These are especially attractive in
suede leather, dyed in all modish
colors, and often form the sole con-
trasting color note in the dress,
though this is apt to be repeated in
hosiery, parasol and in the hat or its
trimmings.
