Fashionable Sequins

Reflecting bounty, grace, and sym metry, this formal avming frock odorns the wilte form of Norma Shearer, screen idol. It features a dramatically new fashion combine- tion of molded black sequin with formal train, while the sackling in high above the throat and cap sleeves ara accentuated by tailored white -

trimmings.

BEAUTY CASE AS HANDBAG

When Cutting Flowers

Special Stainless Scissors.

When the blooms in the flower border, have come to perfection, there are chromium-plated steel scissors, making them to all in- tents and purposes stainless. They are fitted with two steel aprings, which grasp stalk of the bloom after it has been cut.

the

These are specially ground to cut hard, woody stems, yet the springs will also hold the finest stalk. They give one a greater reach-it is always the best bloom that is just too far away. In the ease of roses they prevent pricked fingers.

Almost lifelong use may be ex- pected from the stainless imple- ments now on the market. A steel spade is made in two weights, one: specially for women. Companion sets of fork and trowel, in a box would make a very welcome gift.

THE TWO-FACED

MIRROR.

The latest mirrors are two- faced. However, they are true friends to the complexion. On one side your face is reflected as it appears in ordinary daylight; on the other, you can see how you will look as you enter a restaurant or theatre.

The mirror is of plate glass, scratch-proof, and practically un- |breakable. You can get a pocket size complete with moire case for the handbag, and a de luxe model is made for the dressing-table.
