Second day of the series about the girl who stands out from the crowd tells you why she always looks well-dressed

"TYLE" sums up the whole question of clothes in one

world.” It should be every woman's ambition, but · mighty few seem to achieve it, not just once but all the time.

TRST, she never forget the diamond rule of all good dressing simplicity: The fewer your clothes, the less honey you have to spend on them, the more important this is. If your clothes are well cut, if they at you, if the colour and material suit you then you cannot go wrong.

Leave the fancy bits and pieces to the women who can afford Ho buy a frock that amuses them, wear it a few times, and give it

way when it starts to look silly,

Now about this question of line. The Plus Girl knows, by foxperiment and experience, the lines that suit her. She is not Jed away by fleeting fashions into wearing the sort of clothes that Kon't suit her personality,

If to-day's lines suit her, well and good: she will go all out hd make the moet of being right-up-to-the-minute in her clothes. they don't--sho will look around, adapt them, modify them, until she has found something that follows the trend as well as its her figure.

A Cleaning Tip

EQUAL parts of water, methy- spirit, and paraffin, shaken together in a medicine bottle. form an excellent win- dow-cleaning fluid.

The cost is negligible; actually. the materials for a medicine bottle full cost about one penny, and this quantity will last for weeks.

The best results are obtained by dampening, but not wetting, a rax with the mixture. The final polish should be given with a soft, dry cloth.

The result is a high polish, free from smears. Looking from the outside inwards, it is ex- tremely dimcult to see anything inside the room because of the reflections in the window.

The mixture is also extremely useful for removing dirt and spots from the paintwork of a cor, prior to applying one of the ordinary car polishes.
