' An individual designer of clothes ia New York found himself the for- tunate possessor of a half dozen neck- laces which he had seen in an antique shop. where they were thrown over I string in tbeback of the store. He llnmediately purchased them. Then the' French fashion found its way across the ocean into America, and the designer attached his necklaces in costly gowns. either at the neck or at the waiiitllne. and they added to the price he asked for the garment.

There is nothing fastidions or dell-

They arc inadeof great rings or long. oblong links, and the plaque I or medallion in which they end looks like s Japanese crest. It is ss full of color and ns massive as the Egyptian Jewelry offother centuries. , 'All of these new-chains are short. The big. carved medallion rests on lie hast. They do not reach to' the waist. which is the desire of- the precious slfhnoa. The woman wlioowns a mar- velous ,string ni' pearls now lets it hung to its full length,-you know, in- stead of wrapping it around her neck several times; in royal fashion.

DRESS SUGGESTIONS

A red organdie nndersiip may be

worn under a pale pink dross of the

lame luuierial.

_IA blouse of cream-dotted net is charming when trimmed with platl- . num gray ribbon. ‘A dress of brown silk jersey may be collared hut not cuffed with pale rose organdis. who an ni-no and meer nr beads

make charming trimming for a simple

crepe de thine. '

Evening cloaks and elaborate dvds-

isg gowns are mnde with tho new

dropped shoulder line. -

_Jn the evening one may /wear a hal iii' white ellpped beaver, handed will

__An afternoon _dress of gray and red- hrown marquisette. trimmed in red- brovln 'satin and crisp white orgaadlf. is tightly draped and pulled around the ankles to fnilll the effect of taper-

together in verse that one suggests the '

large knitting needles one could easily duplicate the sweaters now ol sale in the shops. Most of them are purledI about the waist and are finished oi! iwlth bow-knots. but of course theyI could be made as eiaborate‘or as plain‘ as one desired. The ribbon being so much heavier than tile average wooi,i it requires fewer stitches. but as it does not stretch as much as wool does* one must be careful to allow plenty of

leeway to slip it on over the head. I

Another new type of sweater that is-

Drovlng very popular is the one with; long ends which cross in the front and! tie in a sash at the back. These sro: newer than the slip-on sweaters, but' are a little harder to make. They should be very loosely knitted. of I course, and the sleeves may he knit-' ted klmono style or made afterward and set in. As for the sweater itself it starts at the waist line in the hack.I and is knitted like the ordinary sweat-V er up to the neck. Then when the

Cafe au iait forms this smart trot-

ture that should appeal to many wo- men. The surpliee waist has a large collar ei beaver and the hell sleeves are edged with the same fur. Taasels of brown silk add an effective touch.

T0 DETECT INIPUFIE MATERIAL

Silk. Linen, Leather, Among the Vari- ous Articles That Are Ising Clev-

‘ orly Counterfeltsd.

' The “beware of imitatlons" line so common in advertisements is really a piece of good advice. observes a cor- respondent. An almost limitless amount of ingcnuliy is devoted to pro- ducing cheap substitutes for popular articles. In appearance they must rival the genuine. so it is well to know how their real quality must be tested. Nothing, for instance, |s`more satis- fying to eye and touch than pure linen and most woman shoppers believe it has a distinctive “fe-ei." _ It hns. but mixed with the linen of the next tablecloth you examine may be lm-rcerl1.erl voiion, treated with rungnesia so that ii 1-ounierfeits this “feel." An easy test is to hold the fabric up to the iight. Along the threads of good linen ilny knots will show. Cotton tin-ends ure smooth. An infallible méihod is to soak a corner of the napkin in ;:l_\'r~crin. If it be- comes irun.~=im~~»m it |.~; pure linen; if it remains opnqm- it is <-orton. `

tluctly conspicuous fi-iiiui-is uf \vouinn‘8 dres, so the di-innuvi was greatly ln- creused for silk subsiliuiea. Some are made of wood pulp. oriu-rs of artificial silk. Cotton, of course, is mixed with good silk, ami a poor ouuiiry product is given weigh: by ti-wiring it with oxide of tin. Sumli particles of the metal are scattered through the fabric, which cut tiny holes or cause me gar- ment to crack along a folded edge.

The sure test for silk is to burn a

bit of it. If pure scart-1-l_v a trace will remain, but a poor quuiity will leave one-third to one-bali’ its weight in ashes. Beware of silk that has a hard feeling, or if it has a transparent look when held to the iight. This means it is a mesh, iiiied lli and weighted with metal.

Thus we have all sorts and condi-

tions of hems for veils. It may bo chenille clover leaves with jet' blos- soms. it may be ostrich blue embroid- ery. and again, your hem is apt' to be edged with duvetyn matching the duvetya of the turban. Another pop- ular conceit at present is to border the veil with the same material and color which face the hat brim. So one can take the black veil with hen- na or with taupe. There is no end of

Hats; too, are doing much to enliven

the dress world. Feather tame are seen occasionally now. So is the hat trimmed with cock feathers-a pleas- ant little souvenir of the gay Italian bersagiieri who, with their fluttering piumage. marched down the avenue during the Liberty loan drive. Many of the smartest hats are of black and some of them show little trimming.
