HOW TO CHOOSE YOUR
MATERIALS.
The odds may be against you hav-
ing a' becoming dress even before you
put your scissors in the goods. B
its very texture a fabric may flatte
you or be unldnd. The weave give
it a certain character. Materials have
as distinct personalities as colors.
Materials with shiny surfaces are
generally trying. It takes tut almos
perfect type of woman to wear them
well, Slippery taffetas that refiec
patches of light and glazed satins that
glisten are just as conspicuous, eve
in black and dark tones, as brillia
red is in a dull soft goods. They at-

are downright unkind to the too -stall
of the too -thin woman. Dull crep
silks that fall into graceful folds are
easier to wear.
In woolens, mohair has the same
quality of reflecting light and holding
hair, although even the flappers wear
this light tint, -T. C.
HAIRDRESSERS SAY:
Here are some of the tricks the
ebest hairdressing parlors use to make
s their clients' hair luxuriant.
Individual comb and brush is the
first rule. If you are a regular cus-
tomer you have your own comb and
t brush with your name taped on. If
you're but an occasional visitor you
t get a comb and brush out of the
sterilizing machine. This first rule
is easy to apply at home, If you nin-
sist that each member of your family,
have his own brush there'll be no
danger of catching a# n dandruff from
6"eg
y each other.
You try to keep your bob smooth.
e 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 and air and it will lie fiat again
when it is arranged.
Another trick with bobbed hair is to
touch the split ends with an oil tonic.
The operator barely touches her fin-
gers in the tonic and only lightly
brushes them over the dry ends. If�
yen 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.
Watch an expert dress your •hair.

a simple knot 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
. the eye Linen too, when it's washed
especially if it is starched, is what I
gall brazen. These goods demand a
pleasant face and smooth contour of
form to carry titern 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, wiry materials have touchy
personalities. They are not particul-
arly friendly to the stout woman or
the woman with- the plain face.
Organdie, while it is delightful in
itself, when made up bulges, makes
flippant angles and breezy curves that
only yauth and a pretty face can walk
off c with successfully. Hard -twisted
verges 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
cln,radters. They will fall where -you
want them 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 load when they
have on a big coat of a thick, spongy
woolen. Thick goods actually add to
one's sire, and that is reason enough
for the stout woman to leave then
alone,
Thin, transparent n ater•ials, chif-
fons and georget:rs, 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 smooths 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 look warm. It is not pleasant
to the eye when the thermometer is
creeping upward.
I want to taelt on a little color note

CHAPTER VIII.-(Cont'd,)
Judy, quite in the dark, rose to hel
with the spirit -lamp which had sud
denly become obstreperous. Betwee
them they managed to get it put out
Then Judy took her cup from Mrs
Carlyon's hand, and sat down to en-
joy her tea.
"You mean your daughter's en-
gagement to my cousin, I suppose?
We hope that the wadding will not be
delayed on account of any father's
death. It is the last thing in the world
he would have wished."
".But --my dear!" said Mrs. Car-
!yon, a triflle helplessly; "it is broken
off! Haven't you heard?"
"Broken off?"
Judy's hand began to tremble, and
she set her cup down rather hastily

agross the table, her face looking a
little pinched and wan under the
rouge.
"I can't tell you how or wiry. All I
know is that it is broken. It was done
on Sunday. Peter -I suppose I ought
to. say Mr. Garvock now, as he isn't
going to be my son -in -law! --came as
usual last Sunday after lunch, and
Carlotta and he went out for a walk.
Carlotta came back, quite soon, all by
herself; and when I canto down at tea-
time, she told her father and me that
she wasn't g xin to atom him,"
"Did sh '

Mrs. Carlyon shook her head.
"No, and with Carlotta you can't
ask. A dear good girl she is to me,
Miss Rankine, but there are times
when I feel that I don't know her one
little bit! Sunday was one. I asked
had they quarrelled and said that
lovers' tiffs didn't cast, and that, more
than likely, Peter would he arriving
on Monday morning with some hand-
some present from Glasgow -the way
men do, when they've been 'silly or
tiresome without any good reason.
But she just smiled a little at that-
the sort of smile that makes you feel
about le minute old, and that she has
lived a hundred years!"
All unconscious of the word -por-
trait she was drawing of her daugh-
ter, Mrs. Carlyon babbled on.
"And she hos been so queer. ever
since. Just as if she was shut up in-
side, like a box. Of course, we're very
sorry about it. At least I am, for
the Professor doesn't take much inter-
est now. As I tell him sometimes, a
beetle interests him a lot' more than
human flesh and blood. But I like
Peter. He has been more than kind
to. me, and, of course, there'll be no
visits to 'that lovely place now, bet
ust grubbing on in the old way,"
Judy listened, looking as if half -
stupefied, her imagination slowly piec-
ing the story together.
"Then you haven't any idea of the
reason?" she said quickly- "There
isn't anyone else?"
Mrs. Carlyon shook her"!toad quite
decidedly,
"That I can vouch for! How could
there be anyone else? We hardly
know a soul here. I have never lived
in a place so cold and unsociable! Now t
at Cambridge we had a .lovely circle -

quite respectable! Is.that how they
ti are in Scotland always? Do they try
to freeze strangers out of their coun-

"No, no," inurmured Judy. "Only,
yon see --unless one knows something
about people--"
"Well, it seemed. as. if the more
they got to know about us, the leas
they liked us,"' continued Mrs. Cat•
Lyon pathetically, !"My husband thinks'
it is because I belonged to the Pro-
fession', He is a very old-fashioned
man, and he made me give it up when

"That is very sweet of her," sai
Judy, "for: I believe, with you, that sh

Village Where Nobody Dies.
Saleoehie, a mountain village in
Piedmont, Italy,, has suddenly become
famous, and •crowds of Cpeople are
flocking there. It has been proclaimed
a place where nobody dies. No deatlia
have occurred there, during the past
e three years,
s The Mayor of Salecchio performs
' the varied tasks of postman, joiner,
d and beli•ringei'. it is' claimed that
e nobody drinks wine: nobody _quarrels;
e and nobody steals at Saleechio, and
s that perfect harmony reigns among
which somehow made Judy want to
weer. "I think women are giving up
things most of the time, and some
times I can't help asking- whether it
is really worth while. It makes men
;elfish, I thiels, Not that f have any-
thing to complain of in my husband:
He is the best and dearest! But I did
give up for hint -how much he hasn't
an idea! And, of course, a woman
who has been out in the big world,
and who knows what life is, finds it
I difficult to be content in a space so
narrow as this: If it weren't for
Ccriottlt I should let go---"
Jucly, amazed at all this -twee tion,
an,l infinitely touched by it, leaned
forward and gave the pretty hand a
little pat. It was a gesture so spon-
taneous, so ce-easing, that it warmed
the heart of the woman silting op-
posite to her,
"I'm sure I don't know why I should
have spoken to you like this, my dear,
when T never have seen you before!
It's your face and your pretty eyes!
And it was very good of you to come
and see me to=day. Of course, I under-
stand that it was only because you
thought Carlotta was going to be re-
lated to you. Blit I hope that even
though she is not, you won't leave off
coming to the Clock House;'
"Oh, no; I won't do that. Then you
think there is no chance. of the, mar-
riage taking place?"
"Norte. If you had heard Carlotta
telling us you would have known that
it was all quite at an ..end."
"I ani sorry, And I am sure that
my cousin. Peter will feel it very
much,"
"Oh, yes. Ho was in love with her
more than it is good for a man to
be -though it is always best when
he man cares most" observed Mrs.
Carlyon, with; another touch of world
-
y wisdom; "and_ I'm sure it was Car-
otta's fault. Between ourselves, I
on't think she is capable of caring
or a man, for instance -as much as.
cared for my old dear! I can't con-
ceive of Carlotta giving up things for
ny man!"
"Ah, one never knows, Mrs. Car -
yon!" said Judy, as she rose. "From
what you tell me of your daughter,
nd from what I saw myself, I. should
think just the opposite. You see, it is
eally quite difficult to know people;
we'live beside. I sometimes think we
chow less about them, than we do of
he people we meet quit casually out

But Judy, dreading inexpressibly a
meeting with CarlottaThir:yon until
she had adjusted her thoughts, said
she would not wait, but would come
another day.
She bade good-bye to Mrs. Carlyon
very kindly, and when the kind old
face was uplifted for a lciss, she did
not deny it. She had the delightful •
''effect on Mrs. Carlyon ofmaking her
rappear:perfectly natural, human, and
