The odds maybe against you hav- ing a becoming dress even before you put your scissors in the goods. By its very texture a fabric may flatter you or be unlcind. The weavegives. it a certain character, Materials have as distinctp ersonalities as colors. Materials with shiny surfaces are generally trying. It takes an almost perfect type of woman to wear them well. Slippery taffetas that reflect patches of light and glazed satins that glisten are just as conspicuous, even in black and dark tones, as brilliant red. is in a dull soft goods. They at- tract attention to the proportions of the woman who is wearing thein. They. are downright unkind to the too -stout! or the too -thin woman. Dull crepe silks that fall into graceful folds are easier to wear. In woolens, mohair has the same quality of reflecting light and holding the eye. Linen too, when it's washed, especially if it is starched, is what I call brazen. These goods demand e pleasant face and smooth contour of form to carry them off. Woolens that are soft, as cashmere, kasha and fine' twills, are easy to wear. Cotton crepes, voiles and gingham tissue are mater- ials that drape easily, take graceful folds and are generally flattering. Harsh, wirymaterials have .touchy personalities. They are not particul- larly friendly • to the•stout woman or the -woman with the plain face. Organdie, while it is delightfur in itself, when made up bulges, makes flippant angles and breezy curves that only youth, and a prettyface can walk aff with successful) ...;,H �••isted y.._.,�.lc• serges poke out too sharply for the stout woman or the painfully thin. A faille silk, habutai, basket -weave woolen, not "too heavy, fine flannel and cotton broadcloth have more amiable characters. They will fall where ,you want thein and stay there. They are not so apt to advertise the fact that. your hips are large, your shoulders broad or your chest flat. Bulky materials are friendly to all except the stout woman and the short woman. Little women look as if they are carrying such a Ioad when they have on a big coat of a thick, spongy woolen, Thick goods actually add to one's size, and that is reason enough for the stout woman to leave them alone. Thin, transparent n aterials, chif- fons = and georgettas, if handled right- ly,are a blessing when it comes to veiling the too -thin or too -fat arm. But be sure you really veil them. One thickness of very heavy chiffon may do it, but two are better. Certain materials look cool • .They are the smooth ones -linen, cotton broadcloth, crisp organdie, mohair, habutai and silk shirtings. Linen isn't really cool, but there is a lot of it bought for summer -just on its face value. On the other hand, woozy, spongy goods Iook warm. It is not pleasant to the eye when the thermometer is creeping upward. I want to tack on a little color note that I have jotted down' for you. It is flesh -pink, delicate fiesh-pink. Even flannels are being made up in it. It is lovely in voile too, and is especially becoming to the woman with gray hair, although even the flappers wear this light tint. -T, C.

Individual comm and brush is :the first rule. If you are a regular cus- tomer you have your 'own comb and brush with your name taped on. If you're .but an occasional, visitor you_ get a comb and brush" out of the sterilizing machine. This first rule is easy to apply at home. If you in- sist that each member:. of your family have his own brush there'll be no danger of catching dandruff from each other. You try to keep your bob smooth. You may even wear one of those bob- binette caps at night to preserve your sleek contour. The good hairdresser would brush your bob up the wrong way, hard and vigorously, for at least fifty strokes. This gives the hair ex- ercise x ercise and air and it will lie flat again when it is arranged. Another trick with bobbed hair is to touch the split ends with an oil tonic. The operator barely touches bier fin- gers in the tonic and only lightly brushes them over .the dry ends. If you like that inward curve, she puts. her finger under the ends of your hair and brushes them in with a brush lightly dipped in the same tonic. When long hair is washed the good hairdresser doesn't scrimp on sham- poo. Lavishly she pours it on. Four. or five soapings are often used when the hair is particularly long or heavy. Just like clothes, hair washes easier with an abundance of soap. rtratcl a' i n expert dress your hair. She doesn't take it all in one lump and give it a quick twist. Even to make a simple Idiot at the top of the head she ties the hair firmly in place and divides it into several strands, arrang- ing each separately. Hairpins are not her pet economy. And, notice, she never pulls the hairnet tight -just catches it here and there with an in- visible pin. A COMFORTABLE OUTFIT FOR A "SMALL TOT."

But she just smiled a little at that -- the sort of smile that makes you feel about a minute old, and that she has lived a hundred years!"
