A girdleless gown is hardly to be found and whether for the "treet, the home, or evening wear, ribbons are used to form the circlet that enfolds the waist or terminates the bodice. There are any number of styles in girdles and sashes to choose among made of every variety of weave known to the loom and every color NEW STYLES IN RIBBON BAGS FOR THE HOLIDAYS EVERY return of Christmas brings with it bags made of beautiful ribbons designed for many different purposes.

A girdle of wide plaid ribbon, fin­ ished with a sprightly bow of two loops and two ends, is shown in' the picture. It makes a Christmas gift that will delight every woman who likes to keep abreast with the mode. The girdle portion is boned to 6pread the ribbon and hold it in place with­ out pins. The bow is simply tied and may be untied and the length wrapped about the figure If preferred. A sash of dotted satin ribbon, designed for a party gown, may be used as a model for making up any of the soft fancj- ribbons, suited to dressy wear. It requires ribbon about four or flve inches wide, of which three lengths are sewed together to form the girdle. This is boned at the sides and back to hold it in place and fastened in the back with hooks and eyes. Over tbe fastening a flat bow of three loope and one end is placed with the loops lying lengthwise on the figure.

We may sing beforehand, even In our winter storm, in the expectation of a summer sun at the turn of the year; no created powers can mar our I*»rd Jesus' music, nor spill our song of joy.

CONTRAST IN COLORS OPPOSING MATERIAL8 ASSOCIAT­ ED WITH MUCH SUCCE8S, White and Biack In Combination la cX>ne of the Smartest and Most Pleasing--Illustration Gives x an Idea of the Effect. Nothing that concerns fashion is more interesting than the amazing way in„ which apparently opposing materials are placed together with re­ sults that leave no question as to their success. And colors--with what reckless abandon are the strongest contrasts brought into pleasing prox­ imity. There Is no contrast so striking as pure white and lustrous black, and in this season the combination bids fair to remain inordinately smart. The sketch presents a clever use of black and .white in a coat and skirt cos­ tume. These long, full-skirted .coats are extremely stylish, following the linet of the'redingote and polonaise, while showing the military influence so noticeable in most of thfe present- day clothes. In this case the coat is of oyster white broadcloth with vhite fur col­ lar and cuffs. The fronts ar£ cut short at the waist line (slightly em­ pire) and cross each other at an angle with a close line of cloth covered ball buttons as a fastening. Below the waist the skirt portion of the coat is cut out, leaving a panel-like opening broken at the hipline by a loosely knotted sash of self-material, either end of which is started just over the hips, between the stitching together of the skirt and body of the coat. The skirt is of black velvet, very simply made, with a few evenly ar­ ranged folds of fullness around the belt. By topping it with a brocaded or oddly embroidered girdle a fas- Charming Effect in Black and White. cinating glimpse of the same will show just under the slanting waist­ line of the coat. And in these little things, as well as the big ones, each new model is distinctive; the commonplace does not even have to be considered. We have to look back over the past ten years to actually realize how differ­ ent this year is from others in mat­ ters of dress.--Washington Star. HINTS FOR THE MIDDLE AGED Black Net and Chantilly Lace Again In Fashion--Gown of Ribbed Violet Velvet and Crepe. There is always a Period of Indeci­ sion, more or less, andrthis is never more so than with.ttge woman of mid­ dle age who 1b very particular about her clothes. At the same time clothes must be bought. Black net and chantilly lace have returned to fashion. In materials, too, the silk voiles, plain and embroidered, will make gowns that can be worn both afternoon and evening. One of the best of these new mod­ els is a black satin dress with a long, full tunic of black filet net banded at the her> of three spaced velvet bands, each about flve Inches broad. The corsage. Instead of surplice fronts, has wide surplice satin bands that start from a yoke each side of the fronts, cross, tie loosely,, dropping in tbe back. ' Another gown, in a reddish violet, Is of ribbed velvet and crepe. Thg drop skirt is of the velvet ; there is a three- section tunic all box plaited. There is a long one in front, with two at the back, one longer than the front tunic, the other overlapping it and stopping DRESS TO SUIT THE FIGURE Actress Gives Wise Advice to Woman Who Is of Generous Proportions. the "If you are a large woman." advises Maude Odell, tfce actress, "be a con­ fessed and complaisant large woman. "Ketter accept the scale on which aatore drew you. And if you are large affect long lines. Be as jealous of your height, if you are a large woman, as if you were a tiny one. For the taller you are the less ample will seem your bulk. Don't subtract a whit from It. Whatever legitimately adds to \t increases your attractiveness and deepe&4 the note of personal ele­ gance." In an article on "How the i^arge Woman Should Dress/' In the Greep Book Magazine, Miss Odell advocates the V-shaped neck--never a round or square-shaped bodice. Folds or tucks that follow horizontal lines are short­ ening, she says. [ "I regard cross trimmings," she writes, "as things that should not be. j some Inches short of knee length. These have plcot edges. The basque is of the velvet and is draped surplice to the waist line and wrinkled be* neath. The idea is to get an almost, but not quite, fitted long corsage that passes over the skirt. The Burplice edges are outlined with brown fur bands. CHILD'S PLAID DRESS Ver>\ very dark green formed the ground of this wool plaid and was crossed by lines of red and white. The frock was made in Russian style with an inviniblc closing at the center front and tw^. box plaits running from shoulder to hem in front and back. A sash of red moire is drawn beneath these plaits anl knotted to the left of thf front. The little white lawn collar and cuffs have an em­ broidered design picked out ia red. The bonnet worn with this n'as cov­ ered in black velve\ and the joining of crown and brim was hidden be­ neath a plait3d ribbon of red moire with ends and loops falling at the back. SOLUTION TO REMOVE HAIR Dlsltgurlng Growth on Upper Lip Msy Easily Be Done Away With--Use of Lemon in Beautifying. One of the worst, disfigurements that women fall heir to fa the growth of superfluous hair on the upper lip Many and varied are the remedies suggested, but Buch should be followed with the greatest discrimination and judgment An excellent cure is suggested as follows; Moisten the superfluous hairs with simple sulfo solution. It will be found that this application will dis­ solve the hair and, whether heavy or light, it will disappear. Most depilatories ere apt to leave a red spot and an extreme Irritation of th$ skin, but this particular remedy will leave the skin soft, smooth and clear. Its action is gentle and most effective in immediately removing the hair. Sd&rt women generally keep a lemon on the toilet table, as the application of fresh lemon juice is excellen. for whitening and beautifying the hands. The Juice will alfeo remove stains from around the finger nails and will vastly improve tbe color of the skin. No toilet tabic should be without tbe ever-use­ ful lemon. It is not universally known that an excellent whitener for the teeth is to be found in common salt. The teeth should be carefully brushed with a lit­ tle salt at least once a week, taking care to rinse the mouth out carefully afterwards, so that not one particle of the salt may remain around the teeth. The whitening effect of salt upon the teeth is instantaneous.
