Cosy Appearance. MANY SHADES AVAILABLE

A cheerful touch of colour in a bedroom is specially welcome Inf winter, and it may easily be sup plied by the use of coloured blankets

They may be used as blankets, either with or without a bedspread over them. A neat finish is given by the silk binding at the end.

For use in bed-sitting-rooms or in study-bedrooms these blankets are particularly suitable.

NEW JUMPERS ARE HIP-LENGTH

Necklines Are Flat Or Round.

FRIVOLITIES BANISHED

When short Jumpers came into fashion they had such an imme-( diate success that many of the longer ones were put away in spile being in perfectly good condition --so out of date did they look at: that time.

Brown Suede Belts.

Simple Way To Judge Toning Effect,

The simplest way to judge the effects of colour on your skin. is to wrap a piece of cloth around your (wrist, and see what happens to your hand. Does It look red, or whiter? Yellow? Green? Brown? Glowing and healthy, or sallow?.

Brown Ruede belts with big square buckles in dark and light unpolished wood are popular. An- other brown suede belt has a heavy steel fastening like a curb-chain.

Either of these would look good

At first you may find it I dia-i cult to know, but soon it will be easier. Whatever the coloured cuff does to your hand, a frock of the same fabric will do to your face.

SLIP COVERS FOR CHAIRS

Bright Colours Now In Favour

LINEN PRINT POPULAR

Slip covers for chairs are longer merely summer transients in the home. They are becoming all-year-round steady companions for chairs and sofas,

Gorgeous colours are now to be found in fabrics for slip covers this season. There аге the basket weaves in both dashing and more! somber plaids, homespuns with autumn orange and browns streak- ed through in broad broken stripas. A new material called cotton frieze with a diagonal self-stripe of the wooly looking fazzy knota comes in plain colours and is being used for covers this season.

Cretonnes are still just as pretty and useful but they seem to have bowed somewhat in favour of the linen priut.
