Cleaning Evening Shoes.
Both brocade and satin evening shoes may be cleaned successfully and quickly at home. Brocade shoes. should be treated with powdered magnesia. Rub the powder well into the brocado, leave on for some time, and then brush out with a -brush. Wrap the shoes in black paper when not in use to prevent the brocade from tarnishing.
Satin shoes may be cleaned with petrol. First stuff the shoes with tissue paper, and then, with a clean pad of cotton wool, apply the petrol to the satin. Go over the entire surface, changing the cotton wool as it becomes solled, and leave the shoes, stuffed with paper to dry, preferably out of doors.

To-day women are looking to the screen for their inspiration," says Travis Banton, Paramount's fashion

Mr. Banton contloued, "The old unshakable and childlike faith that only Parisian dealguera could fashion clothes that were artistic triumphs for everybody who wore them has been badly shattered, the glamour that surrounded the whis- pering smartness and distinctive- ness of original French clothes is slightly threadbare-becaRUBE of. invenfive drogamakors and equally artistic designers.”
