Stockings are easy to choose this season. There is a very big, range of shades in browns, beiges and greys, but the woman who dresses most successfully seldom rings the changes on more than three. The favourite shade to .wear with sports, morning and walking clothes is dark beige tending towards brown. These stockings are of medium weight, red "sports hose" being worn only for serious games and hard walking.

For evening, you must choose the very finest gossamer silk stock- Ings in a shade pale enough-to- imitate fleah colour, and these de- licate things can have lace clocks but "not" embroidered ones. There are several kinds of fancy evening stockings, the most, worn having fine lace up the fronts. Very fine black lace gloves and stockings create an excellent effect with an ivory satin frock.

mando in colours, and the most fashionable colour at the moment is green. There is little doubt about this because designers of shoes are making their nicest models in green. The most popular shape is the one which finishes rather high on the instep with just one pair of eyelet holes and a tiny lacing. Dark leaf green is the most important colour, and there is a soft emerald tone for afternoon wear. The dark shade is for serious walking, and to

WARDROBE HINTS.

If clothes are to be kept in good condition, both the wardrobe and its contents require regular atten- tion. Every now and again the wardrobe should be completely emptied and be given a good sweep- ing and duating over the entire in- terlor. Particular attention should be paid to the corners, where dust is likely to lurk. A soft paint 'brush is a useful implement for getting into awkward crevices. If the interior is of wood, give it a Most of us are too strung up. A British dress designer has rub over with a duster moistened We seldom relax properly.

LEARN TO RELAX.

appearance.

If you are a housewife, get into the habit of the afternoon rest. Many-women-prefer-to-take-it-be- tween tea and dinner. But rest is meant to be something, more than merely slipping under an eiderdown and trying to sleep.

For the full benefit to be gained, you should undress and indulge in comfortably warm bath, in which some cau-de-Cologne or lavender crystals have been dissolved. Don't stay in too long, and remember to rub yourself well afterwards.

Then retire to a darkened room and let every pat of yourself "floy" limply on a mattress. The secret of successful rest is to allow your- self to go completely inert. The room must be well ventilated. Breathe in and out deeply several times, in order to replenish your oxygen supplies. Try to make your mind a complete blank, and soon you will be off to sleep. When you wake up, you can drink a cap of tea or coffee, but don't take a cup before lying down.

Now and then, in the middle of your household duties, take moment off. Open the window wide, stand before It, and All your lungs full of air. This will not be waste of time. In breathing try to use your abdomen as well of your cheat,

Brush Up..

Before the garments are returned to their places, given them a thorough shaking and brushing-in the open air if possible-and-look them over to acò if they want re- pairing in any, way or perhaps cleaning. If any frocks look creas- ed, iron them over before you put them away again, so that they are ready to wear when next you want them.

Don't economise on hangers in the wardrobe. They are so cheap that there is really no necessity for this, and frocks will keep fresh much longer if each has its own hangers than if two or three are crushed together un one. Also, they are found and taken out so much more quickly when wanted. The new hangers shaped to the shoulder line are much better than the older ones that turned upwards again towards the ends, for these upstanding points often left a mark or a dent on certain types of material.

For Fine Frocks.

It is well worth while to provide covered and padded hangers for diaphanous frocks, so that there is no fear of any damage from the uncovered wood. A small scent sachet
