ON'T imagine that your ail- Dorette will be everything

this summer! Important as it in, the details you trim it with will be more important still.

Just take evening clothes, for -instance. Add a plented net or Ince shoulder cape with a high ruite tied up with taffeta ribbon; or a pleated frill of gorgette held in place by velvet bows tying over ench shoulder and round the neck. for a summer wrap' and you will automatically look 1935. Or you can plan a little lose cape of. chiffon or lure lined with taffeta and completed by a small hood. And the more "kitteny" your taffeta bows, and the higher your fluffy frills the better.

Shoes, in harmony, with this new dance frocks, appear in velvet, in pleated moire and crepe-de-chine, in jazz brocades, and in gold and sliver kid cut on extreme sandal lines, and are very cupi to wear.

Jewellery is delightfully bar- baric, at night as it is in the day. Clip-on earrings are now so large that they cover the entire lower half of the ear, following the line

of the flesh in shell shapes, spirals.. and whorls. Bracelets, to match dres's clips and buckles, are simu. lating old Egyptian and. Indian designs. They are made in bunten brass and chased silver and aro worn two or three at a time on

one arm.

mare.

All the little fripperies that women love to collect for hest occasions, such as chiffon hunkies and stockings, downy powder- puffs, cigarette cases, gloves, lip. sticks and poucheltes are enticing than ever this year, The latest flap-jacks for evening are cut entirely of glass. There is also the most, conpuet vanity case, cigarette case and lighter com- bined which is just, made for the tiny evening bag. It is the vogu to wear your initials in French paste or dull beads encrusted on the flap of your evening bag.

Belts are shaped into the waist again, and you can fasten them with hooks or thongs, or clamp them together with bits of steel or wood. Light summertime tmotifs can be used as decorative buckles: I saw one the other day in the shape of a jaunty music note.

And when you go to choose your summer hats, however much you a bonnet with a spotted chin bow, or the "Angel Child" cross between a balo and a bonnet, study yourself well with the aid of a full-length mirror before decid- ing finally. And just remember - wide brik, takes inches more from the height of a small woman, a halo thickens both the neck and the figure of woman already tend ing to weight, and a creeky little shape with a scoop in front makes the woman with the hollow back. appear to bulge even more at the most unfortunate place.

Then there are hats that de-. ntand shorter skirts and low shoes, and hats that are going to look foolish (as most of this sea- son's) if you wear anything' but high heels and a long skirt.

And now, go safely and enjoy the feather trimmings and the metal ringa!

little tricks.

For The Fashionable Real Lace. It is wise to wash such delicato articles as real, lace, georgette, organdic, and the like, in a wide-mouthed glass jar filled with warm soapy water and borax, or a weak solution of ammonia water. Do not rub with the hands or

use much soap. Just shake the articles in the jar, changing, the water un- tl they are clean. If stiffen- ing is required, use a little rice water or dissolved sugar. Iodine Stain On Linen. Iodine stains can be removed from bod linen by saturating the stains in cold water and then covering them thickly with bicarbonate of soda... Tarnished Gill.-A gilt clock which hus become tarnished should be dasted well, and then wiped with" a soft cloth wrung, out of warm .water and ammonia, using one part of ammonia to nine parts of water. Dry thoroughly and polish lightly with a duster.

Worn Furniture.A little white of egg painted on the worn part of leather furniture will completely prevent further wear at that spot. and will greatly improve the ap pearance. If the leather is tinted and the colour has worn off, paint it with water paint to match be- fore putting on the egg white.. Scorch Marks.-You can deal with them if they are not too subborn. 'Make a paste of raw onion, and fuller's earth, or of bicarbonate of soda and water. Apply a tle, leave to dry, then wash off. A sur- face of scorch on silk will react to glycerine and borax spread over and left for an hour. Then sponge and wash in clear water.. Milk Jugs,--Always rinse. milk jugs in cold water after use. Bot water hardens the albumen, on to the sides of the jug, and this will tond to turn fresh milk sour when tho jug is Alled again.
