Illustrated Dressmaking Lesson Furnished With ' . Every Pattern

By Annabelle Worthington

, ,-...

The cross-over lines need no in- troduction. They disguise weight without a tell tale. The one-sided- ness of the bodice with softly fall- ing jubot rover deserves mention, for it so beautifully detracts from breadth. There is still another im- portant slimming point-the clever arrangement of the skirt fulness, concentrated at the front.

In black and white crepe silk print, its especially smart for all- dny occasions.

Style No. 273 is designed in sires 3G, 38, 40, 42, 44, 46 and 48 inches bust. Size 36 requires 4% yards of 39-inch material with it yard of 10- inch lncc and yard of 35-inch lining.

Crepe silk in burgundy shade is an advanced fall idea. ‘

Crepe satin crepe marocain and supple woolcns are very smart.

Be sure to fill in the. aim of the pattern. Send stomps or coin (coin preferred.)

The l<1\v‘._v floor linoleum has risen to new levels and something must be done to foster greater respect from pretty heads who still believe it something: to be trod upon and mercilessly guyed.

With the important return of wall-coverings, linoleum may now leave the dtpths io which it had sunk below the sink and take up an outstnixriing position on the iaathroom or kitchen walls.

Folly of Widow Who Plans to Marcy a Slave Driver - How Can a Homely Young Man Achieve Popularity With the Girls- Family Goat

Dear lvliss Dix-I am engaged to a man who is not willing that my boy of B should live with us after we are married.

from him. The main thing in life with my ﬁance is money. He thinks a wife should do her house- work and work out besides, regardless of health, and tum over the money she makes to him and that it is foolish for a. woman to spend money on clothes and that one hat every two years is enough for anywoman. What ‘chance of happiness will there be for me if I marry this man? MABEH...

Answer:

None whatever, and you will deserve the mis- cry that will certainly be your portion if you go along and marry a man who has so plainly shown you his character.

Some pity can be felt for an ignorant young girl who blunders into marriage with a man who has camouflaged his real nature. There are, for instance, men who are lavish in spending when they are courting a girl, but who make tightwad husbands who make their wives pinch pennies the balance of their lives to pay for the presents and the dinners and parties they gave them before marriage.

There are philanderers who pursue a girl so ardently that she never dreams that as soon as they are married he will start chasing some other petticoat. There are young men who talk about their temperament and the great things they are going to do when they get into the right thing. until they persuade a girl that she is carrying a genius who is misunder- stood and not appreciated, but who. they ﬁnd out later on, are Just plain lazy loafers whose wives have to take in boarders to support them.

Plenty of girls make unfortunate marriages just because they are de- ceived and do not know what kind of husbands they are getting, but you would have no such excuse in marrying this man who, at least, has been honest with you. He has shown you just what you would have to ex- pect. He has thrown his cards on the table.

He is miserly. He is a slave driver. He is utterly without tender- ness or consideration or sympathy or else he would not be willing to sep- arate you from your child and expect you to do the work of a. housewife and a business woman, and, least, of all, would he be mean and grasping enough to expect you to turn over your earnings to him.

What would you expect to get out of such a marriage? What hap- piness could you look for? How would it better your condition? It seems to meyou would stand to lose everything and gain nothing.

At present you have, at least, the happiness of having your child with you. Can this man's cold affection repay you for being parted from your little son and having him in some institution or cheap boarding school?

At present you have, at least, what you make and can spend your own money as you please. Why do you want to turn that over to a grasp- ing husband and have him dole you out a. few nickels and reproach you every time you buy a new pair of stockings? And dent mislead yourself into thinking that a man who would take your pay envelope away from you would spend his on you. Why, he would begrudge you the very food that you ate and that you had helped earn and had cooked.

Furthermore, no woman in the world is in a more terrible plight than the one who puts an unkind and unsympathetic stepfather over her children and who is torn to pieces trying to stand between them. Many a widow who has married a second time has her heart break as she sees her second husband mistreat her children. Sometimes she has to listen to their cries as he beats them. Sometimes she has to see their natures warped as he cows them and they cringe before his ceaseless criticisms and“ fault-findings. Often shcis afraid cvcn to show them the tender- ness and love she feels for them for fear of rousing her husband's jeal- ousy, and so the poor little things grow up with all their natural inclin- ations suppressed, all the joyousness of childhood crushed out o fthem,

hapless little beings who are the“ victims of their mother's marriage.

_ A single woman has a. right to take a chance on marriage if she Qvants to, but a widow should consider her children ﬁrst in selecting a husband. DOROTHY DIX. I I I I I I I I

Dear Mlks Dim-Nature was not so kind to me, for I have neither a wonderful personality nor the looks of a sheik. Hence it is rather hard for me to ﬁnd girls of pride arid high ideals to go to shows and social affairs. They prefer more romantic and better-appearing fellows. Is there any special formula for cultivating personality? How can a young man bepopular with_the girls and not be used as a convenient means of having a good time and being sort of a meal ticket? I um tlz-cri of being taken for a sap. t?» 'I-.'.\‘.'.-l).

Answer:

It is not possible for a young man to avoid inf-a; made l.1Jil."?\ll "nee of to a. certain extent by girls, any more than it is for girls to keep from going out with a lot of young men who bore them to tears, because it is only by being in the crowd und playing the game that you stand u. chance to meet the one girl or‘ boy whom you really can fall for. If you segregate yourself you are -bound to lose out. Feeding the gold-diggers and mak- ing oneseif agreeable to the weariso me Willies is the price of admission to society. ,

You must have a bad inferiority complex if you think girls don't want to go out with you because you are not an understudy to Valentino. Men turn down a girl because she is not pretty, but girls have more sense. Provided a man is neat and well dressed they don't care a rap whether he has a pug nose or a Grecian proﬁle, and they would far rather go out with an intelligent man with a keen line than with a dumb sheik who made them work like coal-beavers to keep the conversation going.

Of course, personality can be cultivated. Any man can make himself an interesting companion if he will read and improve his mind and will refrain from talking about himself and show an interest in other people. He can acquire good manners and a pleasing address, and he can learn how to do things by watching more sophisticated people. ‘There is no excuse for any man of ordinary intelligence not to learn what forks and spoons to use and how to eat and how to conduct himself like a gentle- man instead of a boor.

As for pleasing women, that is as simple as falling off a log. Pay them little attentions. Remember their tastes in small matters, and whether they like violets or roses or chocolates or dill pickles. Be gener- ous, but don't let them work you. And talk to them about themselves. This rule never falls. DOROTHY DIX.

Paris Styles

i V By MARY KNIGHT - ‘ . (United Press Staff Correspondent)

PARIS, September 2.—(U. Iii-Fashions are getting all mufied ~up in Paris. And it is all due to those new hats. You simply cannot wear one without having the rest of your wardrobe conform. Mulls went along with our grandmothers‘ buatlea and leg dmuttou sleeves, hoop-skirts, ruffled ‘panties’ and lace parasois, and they l

are going right along with us this winter.

The little baby muffs seen at Longchamps and Auteuil are of ' silk and satin, chlﬂon and lace and are usually the contrasting note, or designed to match gloves, shoes or hat trimming.

After lotsof propaganda and eﬂorts to show black and white a. back seat in the fashion theater the movement has been defini- tely abandoned and a general election has voted these two non- color members of style, king and queen of all they survey-mean- ing fashion circles the world over. A charming coat combining the two has elbow sleeves with wide white fox bordering one and equally wide black fox bordering the other. The coat D109" l‘ black satin with a wide band of white satin circling the neck 811d extending to the hemllne just below the knees. It does not, how- ever, cirele the hem. It is worn by an elegante who has choien l black satin skirt with a white satin tunic trimmed with black and metal buttons. ‘ =
