Miss Helen Green of Rochester, Minn, graduate of Leland Stanford university and former dean of wo

GAY BRIDGE COATS.

Bridge coats, which are all the rage just now are very gay indeed. Rich Chinese embroidery, metal brocade into which every colour of the rainbow seems to be woven, and printed satins and velvets, all go to their making.

Some are three-quarter length. with shaped flounces at the hem, some mould the figure, on the lines of a man's dinner jacket and some are short and straight.

They have also been seen with high Medici collars, which in addi- tion to being extremely becoming are a very sure preventive against draughts.

BATHS.

In bygone days women bathed bef cause the various "baths" helped them to be beautiful. And to-day, as of old, the beauty bath is a won- derful aid to the woman who would| look her best.

LIGHTER MAKE-UP.

Essential For Black' Dresses.

While couturiers have been ́giving

us new fashions, beauty specialists have been busy deciding on the now complexions to match.

Black-and white outfits and off- black colours call for a completely new range of complexion tinte.

Although early Victorian beauty has been unanimously decided on as the ideal accompaniment to this season's fashions, it is not simply a matter of pink rouge and white powder.

Rouges "have to be carefully chosen for their harmony with fashionable colour schemes, and white powder must never be dead white, but a subtle blending of white and cream or white and pink. More Youthful.

Women, are discovering that the lighter make-up is infinitely more youthful-looking than the effects of last year, and is particularly kind to hair and eyes.

But this vogue means that they will have to take particular care of their skin. Roughened and weather-beaten skin is more than ever a deadly.sin now that it cau no longer be hidden by a discreet Buntan make-up.

For Dances.

"For dances the ideal make-up for blondes is a dead-white powder mixed with mauve, and a coral rouge and deeper coral lipstick," BAYE a beauty specialist, "Pale cream powder mixed with green raspberry rouge and pstick are best for the brunette.

. "Avoid using rouge in the day- time, and use always a powder- cream for out of doors tp orotect the skin."

FOOTWEAR UP-TO-DATE.

The Oxford shoe, with variations,

is returning to favour.

An attractive model seen tha other day, made of tan willow with a Cuban heel and cut with a long pointed toe, was laced together from two slanting banda at each alde, just wide enough to contain three eyelet holes.

Down the centre of the shoe from the crossbands to within an inch of the tlp a narrowing strip of brown python was inlaid, and similar bands of python were also let into the side pieces.
