' 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-

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. `
Short skirts nmkc stockings a dis-
tluctly conspicuous fi-iiiui-is uf \vouinn‘8

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.
