The one esserdial cause of squint is a defect of the faculty we possess of fusing the image received by each eye into one. This defect may be due to a variety of causes, varying weave; attractive practical silka from injury to the brain, to some that reveal tiny woven designs in congenital abnormality, or it may monotone or slightly contrasted even follow such fevers as whooping colour effects; narrow diagonals, the ostrich cloths now so popular, and all of the canton family in both rough and smoothed-down crepy

PREPARE FOR
CHRISTMAS
Christmas, the season for house party and family entertaining, is ot so far ahead, "audi, cancellations notwithstanding, there will still be numbers of heat balls tes provide "sub debs' and Fager young others with opportunities of dis playing pretty frocks illustrating inil-season fashions.
The 'colour of a dress in by worn at a hunt ball must be carefully chosen. Hunting "pink" has a trick of making some of the love- liest colours look weak and watery. A white dress, however, always looks well, and white satin is the material used for the gown.
Graceful Lines.
The model is of the popular tailor-made: variety, carefully cut to emphasise the graceful lines of
a slender figure. Effective finishing touches are provided by the band of black velvet used to edge the décolletage, and the double fan- whaped bow of black velvet, which, while not in the least like a hustle, serves as a reminder that this still plays a part, if an inconspicuous one, in fashions of the moment.
This is department where special attention is given to inex- pensive frocks. Two attractive ex- amples of showing how fashion can be combined with economy are provided by a pair of frocks, the one of coral red, the other of old- gold spotted net. The material in each case is mounted on a satin foundation, and, the better to en- sure that the not skirts shall spread elegantly about the feeb, these are stiffened at the hom with a band of horsehair lace. The com plementary contees are trimmed with ruchings of net.
Velvet Evening Gowns, There must be at least one velvet evening dress in the wardrobe of every well-dressed woman.
Black ring velvet is becoming to almost every woman. In their ready-to-wear salons, Jay's have some evening gowna both in black and coloured ring valvet distin guished alike for the beauty of the
material and the perfect cut.
Lace dresses; too, deserve atten- tion, as well as other models in which both georgette and lace are dinner frook for matrons and used to make a smart afternoon or others past their early thirties. And for the afternoon, among many other equally becoming models, a deep cuffs of pale pink lace and a dress of black crêpe de chine with filling" of the same lace at the neck and a wide belt of plaited black straw is worthy of special attention.
