Of their many love affairs, three stick out prominently, one in the tropics with the gorgeous Lily Damita, another in cold Russia with fascinating Lelia Karnelly, and the third at Convey Island with a real flip American girl, Jean Bary. Around these scorching love affairs are incidents of a most
heman nature, with pathos, tears, smiles, romance and thrills.
In addition to the five featured players mentioned, the supporting cast is one of first rank when one recalls the fame of El Brendel, Swede comic of vaudeville and musical comedy, Bobby Burns as "Conners", Ivan Linow, former heavyweight wrestler known to fame as "The Russian Lion", and Solidad Jiminez, Spanish character actress of "In Old Arizona.”
Stylish Clothes Simple. Let the average girl dress to suit her
personality, Says Norma Talmudge; and she will increase her attractiveness a thousand per cent. The star of "New York Nights," now being shown at the Queen's Theatre, feels that too many young women wear the sort of clothes that Inok attractive on others. "And they overlook the fact", says Miss Talmadge, "that what may appear smart on one person is unsuitable on themselves. I would recommend that every girl study her per- sonality and dress accordingly. It isn't hard to do".
Miss Talmadge feels that gaudi- ness as it applies to wearing ap parel is a thing of the past. Colours, she feels, accentuate bad lines and advertise them blatantly.
"To the girl who is uncertain what to wear, I should say this, Wear simple clothes. They are always smart, and what is better, always correct.
"As to colouring, I believe that neutral tints such us tans and beiges age the best. Naturally, the fact must not be lost sight of that colouring should also fit the per-

She has made the scientific study of what to wear, and how to wear it, one of her fore most bobbies. She believes that the greatest individuality can be expressed in garments that have the good taste of plainness. The really smart woman, she contends, has a mania against frills and de- enrative effects.

First Aid.
FOR ONE'S FAVOURITE FROCK.
When one is wearing a new and particularly favourite frock, that is just the occasion when drops from the bottom of a teacup or a cocktail glass seems irresistibly attracted to spot. it. But don't give the mishap up as a bad job, mentally consigning the frock to the cleaners. Such expense may be saved by applying simple and. effective remedies immediately.
The prompt application of cold water, before the splashes have time to dry and stain the material. is usually sufficient. Warm water should only be used on white, as it is apt to take out colour,
Grease-spots yield quickly to a dusting of French chalk, which absorbs them. Those people who are constitutionally careless about making splashes on their clothes should carry about with them a little box containing French chalk, which can be applied at once when occasion arises.
It should not be forgotten that tea or coffee to which milk has been added is of a greasy nature. Cream, soups, gravies and sauces are in the same category. If garments spotted with grease are laid away with French chalk carefully deposited on the marks, these frequently disappear in a short while.
Even better than French chalk is terre de sommiere, which is obtainable from French chemists. This grey powder is the Pari- sienne's emergency stand-by when her frock is badly damaged. It is laid on grease-spots, left to absorb them, and later gently brushed away.

Shades of beige, green and black appear in the printed' fabric which forms the fitting upper part, while a deep, un- even flounce of plain black chif- fon forms the lower part. Note the neat shoulder straps cut in one with the bodice, and the entire absence of trimming.

A dance frock, specially designed for the young girl, is beautifully expressed in apricot coloured silk georgette. It is a trim little model, with a fitting bodice and a full skirt gauged at the natural waistline, the edgings of spot net in the same shade raising it quite out of the ordinary.

A new and very novel fashion parade may be organised in the near future, and it will be to dis- play the latest modes in spectacles and pincetez!
Nowadays millions of women
need aids to vision. For
years
opticians have been studying how to design and fit glasses that will enhance and not mar that most vital part of woman--her face.
This study has not been in vain. Its results are to be seen in new optical "creations" which have great intrinsic beauty.

An interesting element in the realm of fashion is the great choice of designs in the "Duro" fabrics, which occupy a leading place amongst the latest productions of British manufac- turing skill.
We would like to refer particu- larly to "Durofleur" cloth, which is par excellence for ladies' and childrens' summer frocks and also for underwear. This should make a special appeal to all ladies in the tropics, or sub-tropics, be and of its well-wearing qualities. cause of its lightness in weight,

Such an optical ensemblé is well suited to the brunettee whose face is a little serious.
