One-Piece Costume Again in Vogue
rw FTER m reign of nearly a decade,
the separate skirt is forced Into
J retirement, the independent blouse
U tossed Into the discard. From the
Jumble of Fall fashions, the one-piece
coatume. with a practically unbroken line
from the shoulder to hem. has emerged
triumphant. The we!l-owned woman of
the moment builds her wardrobe almost
exclusively from one-piece costume, with
matching or marmonlous wraps.
TTils la not an economical change- by
ny means, for there has never been a
style so altogether pleasing to the thrifty
woman as the tailored or seml-tallored
suit with its various separate blouses.
Wraps are always an expensive Item in
the Fall and 'Winter wardrobe, and with
a variety of one-piece costumes, a slml
lr variety" of wraos Is almost essential.
The wrap which will look well with aher
ringbone princess costume la not pre
cisely the correct wrap to wear with a
costume built from sllk-and-wool texture,
supple broadclotn or crepe meteor. In
fact, the general use of supple, clinging
cloth la Increasing the number of wraps
reeded and making the building of tli
"Winter wardrobe a most absorbing prob
lem. However, as the costume Is the Sthtng.
let us consider It for various uses.
The semi-tailored costume should
come first In every woman's plans, cer
tainly In those of the woman who has
much shopping to do. or who goes to
business each day. The latest demand
of Dame Faehlon along this line Is for
the princess creation In medium weight
cloth, especially r'ch colorings with fine
hair stripes of black or deeper hue, made
with bias band of satin or with silk
braid, and a chemisette and half-sleev.-s
of net. either dyed to match the fabric
In the costume) of ecru. cream or
white. This princess gown Is apt to have
a girdle of self-tone silk or soft tm.
built high to Simula the popular, s:iort
walsted effect, and with It will be worn
a long, semi-tilted coat, with rather a
short waist line In the back at least.
Most of these coats have long skirts cut
In deep points, and the really smart ones
for hard wear show little trimming be
yond the silk braid or satin bands.
With such a costume or suit Is worn
a hat of beaver, satin or felt, trimmed
with breasts and wings, never ostrich
tip. A popular trimming for tailored
satin hats la the aigrette, and aigrettes
sufficient to encircle one of the new
satin shapes will cost all of S5. Stun
ning breasts and wings in shaded effects
to harmonise with all the new
shades of cloth can be had at much
lower prices and are far more durable.
Almost "fussy" are the next set of
Cfvtiimes. such as might be chosen for
calling, receptions, afternoons at home,
club meetings and other Indoor functions.
These are of crepe meteor or other nov
elty goods with a satin lustre, messaline,
broadcloths so supple as to suggest satin
Itself, silky nets, chiffon cloths, etc.
"While very little material ts required for
these gowns, four or five yards of double
width cloth being sufficient, the trim
mings and nets and fringes are so ex-p-neive
that the original cost of the cloth
Itself Is a mere bagatelle, compared to
the accessories.
The Directolre and drapd skirts are
In high favor for these one-piece cos
tumes, and. while In cutting, the skirt
and waist are made separately, they are
so cleverly Joined and the Juncture so
cleverly hidden by trimming, that
the effect Is of a single garment from
throat to hem. The draped eklrt Is of
circular pattern with a seam down the
front. The narrow, sheath skirt has a
h as seam straight over his hips. The
modified sheath skirt giins In pcpularity
and Is very becon-jg to the average fig
ure. Sometimes instead of a mere split
tip the left side, showing fine pleating
beneath, you have a decided suggestion
of Greek draperies on the left side, the
oienlng outlined by applied trimmings or
lringe.
As the season advances, more and
more fringe Is noted on smart gowns. It
started as an edging or finish for sashes,
then It was employed to edge tunics, and
now it it s-en all over the one-piece cos
tume, and In narrow widths outlining
stole effects on blouses.
In the designs shown today will be
found some practical hints for home
dressmakers. Figure. A shows a scml
princes gown to be worn under a
matching tailored coat. The model from
which It was drawn was an olive-green
mixed cloth of light weight with gradu
ated baniia of braid for trimming the
slrt. T:ils could be omitted if the gown
Is made for a short woman.
The rich ecru net, which formed the
chemisette and half sleeves, with a bit
of the cloth, braided In soutache at the
top of the panl and buttons In dull gold
stul green enamel completed the trim
ming. This would make a good dress for
wear undor a semi-fltted coat of the
same cloth, for shopping, traveling or to
business.
Figure B shows a smart development
of the one-piece gown in catawba-coi-ored
crepe meteor, a fabric which will
outwear and outshine the ordinary crepe
rte cjiine about 50 per cent. The garniture
may be of plain satin or velvet In self
tone, braided or embroidered. The
The Newest
CONTRACT to the expectations of
the manufacturers the knit silk
ties have held their own In the
favor of well-dressed men. They were
headed for the discard last Spring
when the dealers decided that the
sty Is had been overdone: but the pub
lic has a way of deciding for itself
what It likes, quite Independently of
what it should like, and there Is this
year as much demand as ever for these
scarfs. There is no doubt that the
public Is weary of one kind of knit tie.
That W the highly colored combina
tion in straight or slanting stripes,
t.auily rels and blues, yellows and
pinks, greens and browns, are out Of
favor, but the dark solid colors sre

and are acceptable aa something alto

something Just a little different. These
scarfs tied in the Ascot fashion, especial

Yet there are some drawbacks to them.

Things in Neckwear for Men
bring back the satin four-ln-hand which
used to be so popular with men who like
elegant but unostentatious dress. Time
was when tlie last word in smart dress
ing for men was a black satin four-ln-hand.
This year they have been put for
ward In dark blue, purple still the most
popular of colors for men's wear green
and magenta. The same material Is also
used for the bow or butterfly tics, al
though difference In the width of the tie
at the ends and In the center Is not now
sufficient to make any Illusion of a but
terfly in the tied scarf. So far the satin
ties have not been much worn in either
shape, although prophets of professional
stvles say that satin Is the material that
will supersede the knitted silk scarfs.
One reason that this honor seems due
to satin can be found In the failure of the
dealers to make the crepe de chine ties &
fad. They are beautiful In colors and
they knot gracefully, but they are too ex
pensive In original price and wear poorly.
Two or three wea rings will leave them
so wrinkled that they cannot be worn
without pressing. An original outlay of
12 or more for a tie that Is capable of so
little use Is too much for the average
New Yorker.
In the cheaper priced neckwear there
Is a return to silk as a change from the
cheap knit ties. These new scarfs are
most striking In the combinations of
what manufacturers call "high colors.'
The shades could be no more beautiful
whatever was charged for them. The
two tones of blue, light and dark, of
purple and mauve and of two shades of
brown, are as pretty as any of the Rng

which were always striped with
the colors of various colleges and Eng
lish athletlo associations used to be
unique In respect to their combination
of color. They are not more attractive,
however, than the silks produced here,
although they are mad up In a much
more modish shape. The home-made

monious that the costume complete will
simulate one of the new one-piece gowns.
These selftone. girdles and sashes,' as well
as the nets dyed to match the cloth or

dressmakers, bent on remodeling gowns.
MART DEAN.
scarfs of these striped silks are almost
Invariably found In the wide end four-in-hands,
which Is a shape devoid of
smartness except in the crepe sties. If
the American manufacturers could only
be persuaded to make up these attractive
combinations of color In a rather narrow
four-in-hand made with the silk the same
on both sides, they would have done quite
as much as the English makers who for
so long had a monopoly of this field.
In spite of the successful combinations
of beautiful color that are now so
cheaply attainable, there is little tempta
tion In them to men who aim to be more
then ordinarily well dressed. These seek
single color effects and of rather sombre
tone at that- They pass by the alluring
colors so well suited to the Fall season
without a regret. That Is only a part
of the general tendency of men who try
to be well dre.ed to avoid anything
conspicuous In attire. Borne of the import
ed scarfs for sporting wear have charming
combinations of tone especially well
suited to the Fall season brown and ma
genta for Instance. They are bought
and worn In the country, for which they
are very well adapted. But the careful
ly dressed men at all events those be
yond the age of college shun them.
Dark solid tones of blue and purple or
perhaps a very deep red are alone pos
sible In. the opinion of these conserva
tive dressers.
They follow the earns rule in 'regard
to the colors of the string tie or bow.
This style has been so neglected dur
ing recent years that for one man wear
ing one of those ties there are ten with
four-ln-hands- Gradually there seems to
have come Into existence the belief that
these bow ties are adapted - only for
Bummer wear, and It Is only at that
time one now sees them In any variety
or In large numbers.
For the black tie which Is worn with
the dinner coat there is the same dis
cernible attempt to bring back sattn
into the fashion. The black satin ties
well and Imparts a certain dressiness
that the dull black silks never did
whether they were plain or brocaded.
There is this year the. dull black with
any pattern as well as the figured reps
and other Bilks. Anything approximat
ing the butterfly Is now out of the mode.
The black ties for evening wear are only
m.i krn.jf. n t the ends than at the
; center. A black tie to be smart must be
I at least two inches in width. They are
now straight Instead" of pointed at mo
eiThls Is also true of the white ties for
full evening dress. They come In lawns
and piques without any pattern and
sometimes with an elaborate allover de
sign. But they are smartest when they
are made of pique about two Inches
broad at the end and cut straight across.
The white tie remains the most Im
portant feature of full evening dress. A
faultless fit In the shirt and waistcoat
may be altogether nuliiiied by the poor
ly knotted tie.
Some Practical Fash
ion Don'ts
ON'T wear bright-colored gloves.
Every year dealers Import a great
nink. blue, green and other
gaily colored gloves as novelties for ex
hibition purposes, but the well-dressed
woman never wears them.
Don't buy any cretonne trimmings.
They were a fad that came In with the
warm weather and went out before the
Summer was half over. The fashion Is
absolutely dead. Brocade has replaced
cretonne for vestings.
Don't cut handsome material up Into a
B-gored skirt. If your cloth is hand
some and of fine texture, select a four
or seven-gored pattern.
Don't buy brilliant-coiorea laoncs iur
Winter clothes. Everything tnat is new
has a faded hue.
Don't wear long gloves over ino mm
sleeves now so fashionable. With such
sleeves should be worn a two-button
glove. .... . .
Don t pull your oen une uuwn -point
In the front. Everything that ts
worn with a belt must be round and
rather short-waisted.
rwrt wear pale pink and blue tulle and
chiffon ruches with heavy tailored suits.
Don't have more tnan one saso on
dress. Many women have rumea ino ei
fect of a good dress by having a sash
about the waist, one draped across the
bust and perhaps an ena or two at mo
back.
Don't wear your veils hanging loose at
the back of the nead. Veils are pinned
tightly over the nat and ends are tucked
out of sight.
Don't wear artificial iiowers pinnea on
your furs.
Don't wear tanned shoes with a trained
dress. They are for walking and Infor
mal occasions only.
Don't wear a mushroom nat it you are
a stout woman. It will take several
Inches from your height.
Don't wear distinct stripes if you are a
thin woman. And don't apply me inm-
ming on your dreeses going up ana oown.
Don't wear falsa hair unless It matches
your own exactly. MARY DEAN.
Some Tasty Pies for
' Thanksgiving
OVEMBER Is essentially the month
for making mince and pumpkin
pies. In fact, mince meat should
stand some weeks to gain savor "for the
Thanksgiving pies, so it is Just as well
to make your mince meat at once enough
to last all Winter, if you have a good,
cool place to keep it.
Mince Meat. Simmer until tender two
and one-half pounds of lean beef.. It
should make two quarts when chopped,
or. better still, passed through a meat
grinder. Add to this four quarts of
apples, pared, cored and chopped; one
cup of chopped citron, four cups of brown
sugar, two cups of New Orleans molasses,
one cup of suet, chopped very fine or
passed through a meat grinder, one nut
meg grated, one tablespoonful of salt,
two tablespoons of cinnamon, one-half
tablespoonful 01 cloves, four cups of
sweet cider, or if you use liquor, one cup
of Madeira wine and one-half cup of
brandy. Pack this Into an earthen ves
sel and keep in a cool, dry place. This
1s sufficient filling for 12 pies. For a
large family double or triple the quantity
can be made. As mince meat of Itself
Is very rich, in making your pastry,- add
a little baking powder a half teaspoon
f nl to every three cups of flour, as this
will lighten the dough. .
Pumpkin Pie. Canned pumpkin can now
be had In a very good grade, and it saves
the city housewife the trouble of cooking
a rather unwieldy vegetable. If you pre
fer to use the fresh pumpkin, however,
select one of small size, rather flat at
both ends. If you wish to secure the
sweeter varieties. Wash, cut open, and
remove the seeds and pithy shreds In the
center. Cut Into good-sized pieces, add
enough water to keep It from sticking to
the bottom of a porcelain-lined kettle
and set it on the back of the stove to
simmer. This wilt require about five or
six hours with a slow fire. There should
be very little water left when it Is done.
Remove the loose skin, and rob the pulp

through a colander. Set away to cool.
For everyii 'e cups of the pumpkin, al
low one teaspoon of salt, halt a nutmeg
grated, a tablespoon of mace, two tea
spoons of ginger and a large cup of sugar.
Beat four eggs very l!-ht and add these
to the pumpkin pulp, then add very slow

Tact Invaluable Asset in Time of Trouble
TACT is an Invaluable asset for the
man or woman with social ambi
tions. And please bear In mind
that tact Is not toadyism. We all know
the 'type of girl who hangs breathlessly
on every word uttered by the woman
of social Influence, or who praises the
hideous gowns of the woman whose din
ner Invitations she desires to secure.
She la the girl who simply toadies. The
tactful girl Is not a toady and what
Is more she does not have to be.
Tact consists of doing the gracious
thing In a gracious way at the psycho
logical moment when graciousness Is
most required. Tact Is forgetfulness of
self without "gush." Slang may not
be good form, but It is often most ex
pressive In an article on good form,
and there is no word which will ex
press so clearly a certain state of mind
and form of conversation as that word
"gush."
The tactful girl Is the girl we are
all glad to see in time of trouble. She
will not open the wound afresh. She
will not try to belittle our particular
form of affliction. And she will not
leave the scene of trouble to carry tales.
The other night two old-time friends
came to the parting of the ways, simply
because one was In trouble and the
other was not tactfuL And they were
men at that!
The man In trouble had Just passed
through an experience which would try
the strongest nerves. The man without
tact would have gone all to pieces un
der the same experience and strain, but
he" did not realize that fact, or more
plainly speaking, he did not think for his
friend.
Instead he strode flippantly Into the
presence of the man who was holding
his nerves down with a grip like Iron,
and proceeded Janntily to remark: "Say,
until that time comes, most of us will be
seeking means of softening physical de
fects which cannot be entirely eradicated.
Hence some of the requests which reach
me by mail would be farcical if they
were not so pathetic. Women who have
defied nature now want remedies with
OF CREPE DE CHINE.
which to outwit her. Women with physi
cal defects which would defy the sur
geon's knife want to know how to dose
themselves and outdo doctors and sur
geons in 24 hours.
Please bear in mind that this depart
ment, as I said before, dees not preach
the working of beauty miracles. It sim
ply tries to show you that by means of
common sense, a healthful life and per
sistent use of sane, simple remedies you
oaii improve your appearance, minimize
vour physical defects and be as attrac
tive as iame Nature Intended you to be.
I heard a good one about Blank to
day." "Heavens, man." answered his friend,
"don't tell me funny stories when I'm
In this frame of mind."
"Oh, you'll be - all over this pretty
soon and next year you'll laugh about
it."
Quite true so kind is Providence in
softening bereavement or failure with
the balm of time! But Just at that
moment the flippant remark was like
salt on an open wound. The man in
trouble told the tactless man what he
thought of him as a comforter, and the
tactless man told the troubled man
what he thought of a chap who could
not laugh In the face of a catastrophe,
and the door was banged between them.
If only the tactless man had let his
friend give vent to his feelings. If he
had sat silent or uttered an occasional
"that's so." as the tale proceeded, the
friend would have been relieved by the
process of pouring forth his soul, and
they would have gone out for a nerve
resting walk, arm In arm.
A young man became entangled with
a scheming woman much older than him
self and was rescued from an untime
ly matrimonial fate by a resourceful
mother. Among his friends It was agreed
.that the affair was not to be discussed
in his presence, but one night at a so
cial gathering a woman who never loses
her chance to laud her own sex re
marked tactlessly:
"I hear Miss Dash Is to be married to
a Buffalo man next week. Well, George,
that was a lucky escape for you. Tou
ought to thank your mother every day
of your life."
A sickening silence followed, and ev
ery man In the room glared openly or
covertly at the tactless young matron
whose smug remark had opened an old
wound and made every one in the room
f"el awkward.
The girl who can go Into a sickroom
But if you are not willing to live a sim
pler, saner life, and to persist for weeks
or even months in the use of remedies
suggested, you cannot expect Improve
ment. For Instance, a woman writes that she
looks florid, almost apoplectic, espe
cially In evening gowns. She wants
a "bleach. Internal or external."
A- florid complexion cannot be softened
by any bleach. This woman admits that
she has taken arsenic Internally, but it
has had no effect on her high color. If
she took enough arsenic to reduce a
naturally florid complexion to pallor she
would not live to enjoy her triumph. She
must reach the cause of the high oolor,
which may be overeating and drinking,
tight lacing or the very common prac
tice of facial skinning.
If the writer eats very rich food and
drinks alcoholic liquors, she must grad
ually reduce her diet; and her color will
fade as the stimulants no longer enter
her system. If she laces too tightly or
wears very tight collars, she must loosen
her corsets and buy larger, lower collars.
If she has had her face Bklnned. her
case la hopeless. I simply refer to this aa
an Instance of the penalty some women
pay for submitting to the beauty special
ist who . removes the upper cuticle en
tirely. Excessive perspiration Is another physi
cal defect of which many women com
plain. This often comes from nervous
ness, and can be reached only by treat
ing the nerves, by gaining self-control,
by cultivating long sleeping hours and by
avoiding that sense of driving one's self
every moment of the day. To secure
temporary relief and avoid unpleasant
odors, bathe the affected parts with warm
water In which baking soda has been dis
solved, half a teaspoonful of the powder
to a quart of water.
The woman who has been years acquir
ing wrinkles expects that a "real beauty
doctor" can fill them out In a few weeks,
provided the patient has the price cf the
treatment. This Is a cure which money
cannot buy. It Ilea In the patience and
disposition of the patient
First learn what causes your wrinkles.
It may not always be time. Tou may
have some other ailment which Is dig
ging wrinkles Into a skin which should
be flawless. Perhaps your feet ache.
That will cause a drawn look which will
end in wrinkles around your mouth.
Perhaps your eyesight Is failing. Squint
ing will cause wrinkles around the eyes
and crow's feet. Have your eyes exam
ined and relieve the strain.
Try first to trace your wrinkles to
some ache or pain which can be relieved.
If this does not exist and It is a ques
tion of years, then perhaps you are using
the wrong face lotion. The woman with
a dry skin should never use a lotion con
taining an astringent like borax or ben
zoin. Her skin requires a cream that
will soften, not draw It. If the wrinkles
are very pronounced, the flesh can be fed
with tlie following cream, but this must
nof be used when there Is a tendency to a
growth of hair or down on the face, as
lanolin will encourage this growth:
Tannin gramme
Lanoline 3" grammes
Oil of sweet almonds .'...20 grammes
Melt the lanoline and oil in a double
boiler with as little heat as possible.
Remove from the fire and beat in the
tannin as the mixture cools.
Speaking of superfluous hair, the wo
man who has a soft down on face or
arms should not attempt any violent
means of removing this. The X-ray is
used to remove the hair, but it often
leaves the skin as dry as parchment.
Electrolysis, or the electric needle, is
used to pick the hair out, but It Is
painful and almost Impossible In case
of the soft down. Better far to bleach
the tiny hairs by an application of
peroxide of hydrogen, nine parts; aqua
ammonia, one part. Apply with a
camel's hair brush until the hairs are
so light that they do not show against
the flesh.
Moth patches, which next to super
fluous hair, count among the common
est feminine trials, are often due to
torpid liver. Eat quantities of fruit
particularly oranges take exercise in
the fresh air, and, Internally, use salts
under the direction of your physician
or a reliable druggist. If the patches
are very deep seated, touch the spots
with a camel's hair brush dipped in
the following bleach:
White precipitate 1 dram
Subnitrate of bismuth 1 dram
Benzoinated lard 1 ounce
Have this put up by a responsible
druggist, and after using it every
night for a week, you will 'find the
spots fading.
Dull-colored hair, muddy hair, life
less hair these all worry middle-aged
women. Do pot resort to dyes or
bleaches, but ascertain the shampoo
best suited to the coloring of your
hair and use that faithfully. For hair
that should be golden brown use a
little peroxide of hydrogen, say a halt
teaspoonful in the rinse water. Never
use ammonia or borax on dark hair,
but a plain green soap shampoo with
plenty of clean rinse water. For red
hair I have a special shampoo mixture,
which formula I will be glad to send
on receipt of stamped and addressed
envelope. CATHERINE MORTON.
