THE days of elastic-sided boots, thank goodness, aro over. But they had their points they kept grand- mother's feet dry.

We have their counterpart to- day in the attractive ankle-high bootres. 'discovered Arst in America. They have 'waterproof Exteriors fastening up the front with buttons, or a Lighting Fas- tener; cosy inside, as they are Ined up with wool.

Warm, too, are the bootees worn by the girl in the sketch.

Fashion seems determined to keep our feet dry, having in mind. I suppose, all those chills we catch through having the wrong foot- wear on at the wrong moment.

Besides the just-above-tho-nukle type of boot, there are others that come well up the calf of the legs. If the latter are worn, the coat should just cover the top, as a gap between gives a vory ugi lins.

I saw a gladsome sight the other afternoon coming towards me in the wol. A figure in bright scarlet bilskin, worn over a coat and skirt -rather startling, but a cheery Eight in the November gloom.

Cheery, too, are the coloured oil- aking, with hat and chubby um- brella to match. If you don't favour transparency, there is an- other fabric appearing to have a taffeln Anish. In a spot design coat, complete with hat and um- brella, this makes a smart bad- Weather outfit.

SCHOOLGIRL BEAUTY

H

TOWEVER much mother may protest that "she never worried about her face in her young days," her modern, lanky-legoca 'schoolgirl daughter in her teens will still take what appears to be an excessive amount of interest in the cosmetic counter.

it's no use complaining of youthful vanity—creṛp girt is keen to be pretty-fust an every mother wants her daughter to be the belle of her frst "ball."

The best way for mothers to tackle the problemL

is to turn this youthful interest to good account, Teach wur daughter the value of skin cleanliness, Sce that she uses only pure soop, and get her into the habit of giving her face a cold splash after escry wash.,

Give her a manicure autht with really good imple- ments. Poor quality Ales and scissors spoil the nails. If the cost important, buy the manicure things separately and make roll-case for them from chamois leather.

As to powder, no one likes a sking nose, so see that she has a finely sified, pure powder which won't harmi a lovely young skin. Teach her to apply a light founda- tion cream first.

Be firm about rouge. Any girl in her 'teena should have a wild-rose colour which not only does not need

D. E. artificial aid, but is spoilt by it.

is opportunc.

On cold, wet days the chill at- mosphere seems to penetrate right through you. Furs are not a happy cholce on such occasions, as your best coat is apt to get wet, and fur takes on a matted appearance which is the reverse of becoming.

For travelling by train you can't do better than have a warm tweed coat-beited, mark you-so that it fits snugly round the walst and staya in position and keeps you warm without trouble in care you have to strapping.

Another point to bear in mind is to -havo a wide wrapover so that you get the protection from the double

Also, the girl or woman who spends a lot of time travelling in tralus dur. ing the winter month? sind always have a coat on the long side, so that it comes well over the knees,
