HOW T0 DRESS

Dame Fashion is very kind this season, inasmuch as illat she ai- lows everyone to make the most of their own particular type rather than to make us all conform slav- ishly to a fashion which usually succeeds in making nine of every ten women appear freakish.

If you belong to the tall stately type you will look extremely at- tratctive in the long classical lines of the Renaissance dresses, WhlCh are carried out in richly -coloured velvets.

On the other hand if you are onc of the dainty type, who look their very best in anything which has a touch oi the charm of aid-word- iinos about it you can go in for the Victorian frocks. These are in plain or flowered taffetaa and favour the off the shoulder vogue with puff sleeve effect.‘

Those who are doubtful about their arms will be glad to avail themselves of the fashion for long angel sleeves for evening wear. These are very becoming, especially to the tall stately woman, while they seem very suitable for the heavier types of materials, and look very luxurious when finished with deep bands of fur. Chiffon and goel-"getie are both other favourites

this season; shil-ring is very popular in this type of frock and it usually

develops somewhere about the knees into a somewhat full skirt.

Gloves have definitely returned

to favour and they certainly add a

very finished appearance to any

ensemble. If you are one of‘ those

who feel the cold rather too much

for comfort and enjoyment, you

will be well advised to choose some

kind of cape effect.

There are any number of styles

to choose from, some of them parti-

cularly lovely, and this charming

fashion is also a very comfort-

able one for chilly mortals.

N0 PUPIIJS

The little church school at Oare. England, the famous Some-sel- ahire village associated with R. 1)..’ Blackmores novel “Lorna Doone. has been closed -for want 0i’ pupils.

For some months. only two chil- dren have attended the school. One of them left at Christmas. and the Somerset Education Com- mittee declded that the school should not reopen after the holi- days.

It pays a woman t0 be a good housekeeper, because when she mar- rles she takes her husband's health into her hands, and whether he is hale and hearty and going strong at middle age or a semi-invalid laid on the shelf is largely due to‘ the way she feeds him; and to whether his home is a place of turmoil that frets his nerves to fiddle-strings or a llav. en of quiet in which he can gather up strength for the next day's work. Many a man wrecks his future by quarrcling with his boss, or insulting a good cuswme , or by turning down a good proposition because of a break- fast of weak coffee and gooey cereal and heavy rolls. A lot of bankruptcy as well as divorce could be saved by good breakfasts.
