This gown had a yoke of filet lace, straight across under the arms, and filet straps going ever the shoulders. There were four mall diamond-shaped pieces of the georgette set In the yoke at each side of the front and back. The georgette was. gathered Into the bottom on the yoke, and the lower edge of the gown was cut In scallops, , these being bound with the self material. One small pocket, pointed at the bottom and lace trimmed across the top, was set on the skirt. There is but little work about these fragile garments that should be done on the machine. The sewing and cut ting cannot be too beautifully done for carelessness would show plainly. A third gown was made of this same peach-colored crepe, cut straight across under the arms and finished with an outside, shaped facing, which formed a yoke. This facing was in deep violet shade. Over the shoulders, in place of the usual strap, there were four half-Inch double folds of the violet, feet on just as the straps are. These were a half inch apart, and there were four on each shoulder. In the front, on the shaped facing, there were little flowers embroidered In white. . - A second gown -was made of the finest crepe in a peach shade. It was cut witnout sleeves, and the deep arm- hole was finished with a bias binding in lavender. The bottom was hound the Same way, and the bateau shaped neck had the same finish. Across the front and back below the neck there were six groups of embroidery. These were violets, embroidered to form rings, and there were three of these groups across the front and three across the back. In cutting this gown, fullness was allowed at each under arm, and this was shirred In place in finishing. There were drawers and a short chemise to match this gown, the chemise almost a duplicate of. the gown, except in the length. The full ness at the sides was held in place by smocking. The lower edges of the draweis had the same shaped right side facing and a little embroidery. A casing through which an elastio was run finished these step-ins at the Waist line. EVEN MOST BEAUTIFUL GIRL HAS TROUBLE WITH HER HAIR Fins Texture Requires More Attention Because, of Silkiness Katherine MacDonald's Tresses Not of Great Length. ' 4, f ' t ' '' " - f f BT ANTOINETTE DONNELLY, ' ARTICLE NO. 3. ' , -- " LOS ANGELES. (Special' corre spondence.) How does the most . beautiful woman . in the world care for her lovely locks? How does she dress her hair? Is it naturally curly? Does she henna it? Bleach It? Or leave it au naturel? I suppose you are most Interested to know; if being so beautiful exempts one from the ordinary brushings and shampoos and marcels and the other Incidentals of care attached to the calp and the hair. Yes, the charming Miss Katherine MacDonald, voted by artist and lay man the most beautiful girl in the world, has her own little bair trou bles, even as you and I. To begin with, her hair I of that ' extremely fine texture that requires Snore attention hy reason of its silki ness. IX is not of great length, com ing a little below the shoulder blades, but growing quite abundantly from out K8T scalp. ' It Is quite without natural curl, much to the beauty's great sorrow, for therein lies most of her troubles el coiffure. She has to have it marcelled frequently, as the curl remains not so long as if the hair were a bit more wiry or coarse. Her picture work naturally calls for a well-coiffed head whether she happens to be suspended from a col lapsing bridge or playing hostess at aa afternoon tea. Consequently, more irequent application of the iron is SAoessary than were another voca Cbii chosen by her. And this. Miss SlacDonald appreciates, has to be off set with more brushings and more critical general care. - . Another, item of hair discomfort the motion-picture actress encounters is the intense heat untter-which- -the studio pictures are taken. I was amazed at its strength as I stood-not nearly as close to the machine as the players must, and every one of the girls , complained to me of the drying effect this continuous heat has on the scalp and hair. ' But Miss MacDonald puts a power ful lot of faith in the hair brush as a- come-back for the damaging effects of the iron and light. She brushes It morning and night, and if she has to comb her hair a-.second or third time during the day she gives It an additional brushing before it goes up. Shampoo Every " Friday. Every Friday ' morning for ' years she has had the hairdresser come to her home and give her a shampoo. Until she was a full-grown young woman she washed her hair at home. She claims the only shampoos and marcels given her away from home were on the few occasions she was forced to do so when traveling. Her Friday-morning ceremony be gins with a thorough brushing by the visiting hairdresser.. -Thenher head is immersed in a bowl of warm water not hot. A lather is produced by reducing a white soap to liquid, pour ing it over the hair and into the scalp, and rubbing. Three different lathers and rinsings are indulged then a spraying with lukewarm water is given, and a final rinse in a weak solution of white vinegar. This, she believes, provides flufflness and luster. The final rinse kvith every fourth shampoo is of a different nature. Miss MacDonald's hairdresser, buys henna leaves in wholesale quantity, a hand ful of which she adds to a big pail of water, steeps it so that the liquid has no red or brown cast to it, but an Ivory color which does not affect the color, of.'the hair. Respecting her hairdresser's claim, Miss MacDonald believes it preserves the natural tone of her hair, and is healthy. Henna, when bought wisely in leaves contain ing no mineral dyes, is healthful, but would better be left to the use of an expert, for If there are too many leaves added to the water it is apt to entirely change the color of the hair. Hair Rnbbed Dry. The frequent brushing and sham pooes leave Miss MacDonalds scalp free from dandruff trouble, except in the normal amount which the average healthy head may be subjected to now ana- then. "I never did have and never will hat e a machine to dry my hair," said Miss MacDnnalfl.

The' coarse ones leave me track or the comb, says. ' i 1 Coif fare Is Becoming. The lovely contour of her head is due in part to the studied Una of in coming coiffure. This is how she does it. She begin j by making a part from the center of her head straight down the middle of the back, separating it in two distinct parts and leaving the front hair all free. She takes the left side of the back and pins that pretty well toward the middle of the back head. Then she makes what she calls a two-inch part on the left front, leaving the right front to be taken care of later. From the two-Inch part she weaves the left hair into becom ing lines, pinning it here and there as she draws it back over the left-ear and tucking the ends in with the left back. Then the front right is taken and arranged down on the forehead first, then drawn back over ears and over the back hair to complete the French swirl. After this has all been pinned down she takes a fine comb, ) puua nit, imii uvcr me luieaeaa, and fluffs it out on the front par); of the head until it assumes just the right degree of height and line before the net is put over it. It may sound much more complicated than the procedure really is, and the success of It is In practtc'nr until you get the lines that suit your face. jiP n : x ou Hptni'- v,Splendid Offering Choice of 100 in the Very Newest Designs at the Sensational Price of v . r , - i i t jgr .ror one weeK oniy,- Deginmng tomorrow morning, we re going to present a saie oi iioor r ryl lamoa that will outdo any we have ever 'offered; from a standpoint of price and va- ' riety of designs. . - . . . .....
