RECENT DECENTLY I was invited to have
in the sky-scraping| apartment of a New York actress.
Directly I entered the tiny living- room of the flat I noticed two un- usual features. One, the absence of a dining table. Two, a frosted glass panel, decorated with hand painted designs and lit from behind, let into one wall.
At dinner-time a coloured servant entered, pressed a wall button and eased the glass panel out of the wall. -Two-chromium legs came with it, clicked into place, and supported the newly-appeared dining table.
Hinged on its lower side, Alting snugly into the wall, this novel table was composed of a thin, hollow slab

HE women of Mayfair have lost their heads completely over black. They know very well that they should be wearing colours again by now, but apparently they do not know how to get out of the sombre colour that started with the death of King George V. Everywhere one goes, in London there are all the women wearing black.

Their primary subject of conversation is "biack." They ask 8750 each other whether it will be better to order clothes for the season in colours or not. They all say that they do not wish to ape mourning, and yet not one of them hins the gumption to go back ( 8781 into colours. The difficulties of the situation have been aggravated by London designers, who are showing collections in black, white 8576 and mauve, and are substituting the bright tulips of the Paris show with violets for England.
Tone important Dress Opening at least 70 per cent. of the collection was black, and the same was true of the clothes worn by the audience. Lady Warwick, Miss Peggy Jolinson, the Duchess of Westminster, Lady Edward Hay and Lady Jersey were just a few of the younger women who were all dressed in black frocks with small black hats, most of them wore long mink coats, I have come across Mrs. Charles Sweeny at several first nights, and also out dancing, she hardly ever wears dark colours, but each time I have seen her she was dressed in black. One dress was black net, slim atting to the knees, then Bounced out to the floor.

SALESMAN SAM
Lady Veronica Hornby is one of the few young women who have had enough courage to wear white. She was also out dancing in a stinky white satin dress with little frills around the hem, which continued half-way up the back of the skirt. She also has a charm inst
tile waist-length mink jacket with short which sho wears when she goes to the
entre.
To give you some idea of the season's evening coats Angrave hus sketched two models Just to show you how different they can be. One is a knee-length coat mnde entirely of tightly ruffled chiffon with all the edges cut
that they stand out like slimy exotic feathers. It is cut tight fitting to the waist, then flared out to the hem. The sleeves are long, and the colour is dark bottle green,
worn with a sulphur-coloured dress.
The other coat is full length, and made of the stiffest slipper satin in vivid blue or pink. There is a high yoke at the back, and then the skirt Is put in with great folds. Ruffles edge the neck, yokce, sleeves and hem.
The evening dress sketched is in light tan-coloured flat crepe, and gives you an idea of the type of drapery which will be most fashionable this sensen. Enormous folds hanging from one shoulder are looped up again to the waist. The full skirt hanging in a panel from the centre back Is draped up between the feet like Turkish trousers. The bodice is high in front, low at the back, and bloused over at the waist.

HERE is a Parls dress house called Allx, whose clothes are greatly admired by the Hollywood film stars. I think in a very short time we will be seeing their models in London. This scuson Alix's collection is highly eccentris, exolic and beautiful. The evening gowns are mostly in soft white or pale pastel materials draped in many yards from the shoulder to waist or else locped up between the feet in the Turkish style. One dress has a drapery that looks like transparent cloak: This can be taken from the shoulders
and worn round the waist, forming a kind of second skirt A crinoline gown is made of many layers of organza heavily folded at the edge over stiffening. One layer of black is placed over two layers of white, and the hem is decorated by strips of coloured taffeta arranged like a rainbow. leavy silk mosquito netting and bead netting are used for evening conts and cloaks: One black net cape is worn over a vest of sequins. A long-waisted evening coat is skirted with, bead netting falling to the ground.
The day clothes are less exotic and pleasantly practical, olive green. and a dark shade of mauve being the most popular colours. Some of the suits have short-waisted jackets Boring out for ten inches below the waist. This exaggerated flure is sometimes used for a tiny cape or collar. The sleeves are accentuated above the elbow. Many of the frocks have front draperies. One has heavy folds swinging loose from the neck to the hem, the dress underneath being tightly belted.

of Castoria as a laxativo only for babies. But ac- tually Castoria is equally as effective for children up to 11 years of age. Their little systems are still delicate and require a mild and gentle laxative. Castoria tastes good too.
