THE WORLD OF WOMEN
FOR THE HOSTESS.
Table Decoration Up-to-Date.
A good hostess will always con- trive to arrange her dining-table attractively. And little in- genuity goes a long way when table decorations are in question.
A piece of mirror glass, a prettily moulded glass bowl, and a fow beautifully tinted flowera or leaves used with imagination can give distinction to the most ordinary-looking dinner-table. It Is always worth while thinking out fresh schemes, for her table reflects the personality of the hostess and considerably helps to- wards the success of the meil. ·
One woman recently concocted a most attractive tablecloth out of 3. rough. woven silk-re- mnants from her curtains-wbic.. se plaited to cover the entire table. The same Idea might be carried out with linen or the new thick artificial silks which are on the market now. A charming effect can be obtained by mean: of white or coloured linen run-i mara. One should be laid down the centre of the tables from top to bottom, and two others placed across. This arrangement, would be for six people, but if there were more than six, mats to match the runners should be used for the other covers.
Another hostess who possessed a beautiful refectory table, of which she was very proud, placce three circles of mirror down the centre. In the middle of each a square hole had been cut, and in this a shallow cut-glass bowl had been placed. Marigolds, shaded from yellow to a deep orange, floated in the bowls; and trailing leaves were reflected in mirrors.
the
Some of the newest contre- pieces take the form of square-evt glass bowls with beautifully moulded glass figures poised on elther end. Tiny electric bulbs hidden within a cluster of leaves on the table at the side of such a Bowl-but not in the water- would illuminate the fillle figures charmingly."
Paris is raving about the new costumes, just launched, in lacquered silks that are called "porcelain.":America has its own counterpart, expressed by this charming scarlet cire chiffon jacket that tops a black chiffon speakeasy dress.
The cire chiffon gleams like lacquered satin, yet is poft like chiffon. The jacket has huge puffed sleeves which slip above the elbow and it crosses in front to fasten in the centre of the back.

Hollywood. Spring fever is breaking out in gay prints and plaids these days. Greys and greens are good colours.
Heather Angel wears a neat little Scotch plaid sheer wool suit, proving that skirts are to be cut on the straight, with kick pleats both front and back. It is a charming plaid, greens, grey and white, with the mess jacket made with conservativer Bleeves and bone buttons, and worn over a white silk pique shirt, with tie of same.
Dancing at the Biltmore Supper Room the other night, Heather wore a pert rose taffeta jacket over her white chiffon dress, with huge, puffed, short sleeves,
