NEW WINTER COLOURI SCHEMES.

Madonna Blue And Black Popular.

VELVET RIBBON BACK.

Touches of Madonna blue with black are the latest innovation with Augustabernard. They may be in velvet or crepe de Chine, and may be placed next the darkest blue, but they are one of this designor's famous details. This mid-season idea will bring frosh colour into our clothes just as we begin to tire

One example is a thin line of blue passed round a high swathed waistbelt, finishing off in front with two blue ball buttons. APT other is a slip of a blue velvet necktie passing round the neck to fall over a tab of black set at the centre front of the bodice. When mixed with the darkest blue, lain- age cotton velvet appears in thei form of a soft tailored collar cut:

KEEPING A CLEAR

COMPLEXION.

Exercise And Healthy Food Essential.

Having a good skin is a matter of "Donita" It is so much easier to use the proverbial "ounce of pre- vention" than it is to take several pounds of cure. So, don't leave make-up on your fee when you go to bed at night.

Don't apply powder to your face if there is the least bit of cold cream left on it, for the cold cream clogs the pores and the powder actá as a cork for it-thus enlarging the pores.

Don't use the same treatment for very fine, thin skin that a person with coarser skin finds beneficial. For example: lee is one of the best astringents in the world, but

if your face chaps easily it will re- quire a quick wash off with ice whereas a skin that is thicker will improve with an ice rub of several minutes.

Good advice to all girls who would like a good complexion is→→→ take plenty of exercise, eat healthy food and get the rest you should have. Keep your face clean, but don't use too much soap. Especial- ly after being out in dust, it is wied Ito cleanse the face with a good cream and then wash it with warm water and soap.

THE HAY-BOX STOOL.

It is difficult to find room for a hay-box in the modern kitchenette, but if the box is designed to serve two purposes it may be possible to fit it in. If a rather deep, square box which will just go under the table is chosen, it may also be used As a Beat. It should be fitted with rubber castors and covered with A loose cushion American cloth.

SWEET SCENTS.

The fashion in perfumes varies from season to season. This is jjust the time of the year for flower perfumes, and the fresher and more fragrant they are, the batter they are liked,

There are, first of all, lavender, jasmine and lily-of-the-valley. Beads which contain, little flasks of perfume are usually filled with violet. rose scent, or parama Bottles of sweet pea, and mimosa are more generous of odour than most of the other scents.

At one time, there was a fond- ness for carnation essence. Now. it is really used, except in bath salts which aim at giving condens- ed perfumes; so that the minimum amounts of salts will permeate the room with perfume.
