ROUGH WEAVE TO BE POPULAR FABRIC FOR FALL COATS

Curly Goods Slenderize Silhouette BY MARION HALE Nfc.% Service Writer NEW YORK, July 30—When you choose your fall coat, look first at Its fabric, and the chances are you'll find it one of the surprisingly new weaves that have a distinctly rough and curly appearance, yet whose eurfaee is really quite flat. It may be called by some queer Russian sounding name—Cherkessa, Mirak, Charda or Jonja—but it’s almost sure to be one of these new nubby, curly weaves. There are many delightful discoveries to make about these new weaves. In the first place, with all their rough appearance, they are so soft and clinging that they definitely slenderize your silhouette. Sleeves Widened The new coats are cut very simply, and even when quite full, fall In slender, almost straight lines. All trimming and furs are placed above the hip-line, and sleeves are widened to emphasize the slenderness of waists and skirts. Fur is of the long-haired variety if you want to be flattered, or if you are the salved, tailored type, you probably will cling to Persian lamb or other flat furs. The lines of these new coats s and dresses, tool are not casual at all. They fit the figure carefully, Scarfs, if used, stay in place and do not fly in the breeze. Coats are so precisely fitted and fastened that they resemble suits. Sketched today is one of the "suit coats,” in black Cherkessa trimmed in Persian lamb, the same flat-curled texture of the fur echoed in miniature by the curly weave of the fabric. Elegance of Court Cherkessa proves warm enough in the coldest winter winds and yet, as the fabric shows all bulkiness is eliminated. Fine fur is shown against beautiful fabric, designed in a coat whose simplicity of line proves the most perfect of backgrounds for any woman’s personality. They say that the new hats, dipped down over the right eye and showing most of the left side of the hair, are responsible for much of this straightening of the silhouette, and pulling it out at the elbow's with a quaint air of elegance smacks of Empress Eugenie and her court. Don’t throw up your hands and vow never to wear these hats, until you’ve tried one on. You’ll find they do wonders for profiles.

Just Every Day Sense

“T DON’T actually dislike Mrs. 1 Jones,” said the brilliant and fascinating ' Miss Hopkins, the town’s most .recent literary success. “She merely tores me. She talks constantly about her children and who, pray save Mr. Jones should be interested in them?’” Yet Miss Hopkins talks just as constantly about her publishers, her impressions of life and her achievements. Mr. Smith, the dapper bond salesman at her left, talks about the market and his trials in finding a decent laundry for his shirts. Miss Randolph, the school teacher, talks about her superintendent and her -last summer’s course at • Columbia. Mrs. Arnold, the society leader, is forever harping on the shortcomings of her maids, the cost of her cars, and the dumbness of her bridge partners. The president of the bank who sits at her side is able to speak intelligently only about first mortgages and interest rates. Even the newspaper columnist who is accounted such a learned person writes several pieces annually about his dogs and his cats. tt tt tt FOR • this reason, and many others, I can not agree that it is only a sign of inferior brain power whep. little Mrs. Jones makes her babies the main subject of her conversation. She is merely indulging in the universal human failing. We all speak at length, and frequently, on topics that concern us only. And it has been my observation that those persons who criticise mothers for talking about their children are those who would like to have the floor so that they could put out more information about themsel\s. Babies, furthermore, after one has made a short study of their habits, are excellent subject Quite as fascinating as bonds or bridge. They have, too, the added advantage of being always i a state of fluctuation. There is nothing static about a baby. They change oftener than the market or the fashions. If intelligently approached, they can hold the interest of the most learned man or woman. Yet a good many of our wisest people boast that they are content to remain in total ignorance about them.

Wax Surest of Modern Depilatories BY ALICIA HART Applying a wax depilatory to your arms or legs belies the old saying, “It’s as easy as wax.” For it is the hardest way to rid your skin of superfluous hair, but it also is one of the most satisfeatory* ways. The reason for this is that wax literally pulls the hairs out, by the roots. Wax is an epilatory, rather than a depilatory. Take some time out of your day and settle down to doing this highly necessary business properly, if you decide to use wax. First, you melt the wax. according to directions that come with it. Then you spread it on with the back of a spoon, not all over the portion you are working on, but rather like a map of several countries, w'ith boundary lines here and there. These boundary lines should be wide enough to allow you to take hold of the w r ax when it hardens and lift it off. That is why you can’t spread it on all-over fashion. Have your edges thick. You’ll need this to get a good lift on the rest. Spread the wax on in the direction that the hair grows. Pull it off in the opposite direction. When the wax is dry, pull it off quickly, like adhesive tape. If you are putting wax on your upper lip, begin in the center of the lip right under the nose and spread the wax down from the top, in a line that runs out to the corners of the lip. The hairs usually grow across the lip, so you can get the hairs out better by putting the wax from the top down. If you have any hesitancy about trying your owm lip, get some beautician you have confidence in to apply- it for you. It usually is more successful than doing it. yourself. You can save your wax and use it again. For, sad to say, you’ll probably need it. Hairs do grow back again in the old spots, but they do not grow quite so quickly after an application and you can repeat the wax when needed.

Angell Home Likeness of Colonial America

frit \ * mil w ■ flip

BY MARY BINGHAM One of the authentic, early American homes in Indianapolis is that of Mr. and Mrs. Maurice Angell, 35 East Forty-ninth street. ’ Everything in the living room is old with the exception of one or two excellent copies of articles of Colonial days. Perhaps the most unusual piece is a rolling pin footstool, upholstered in saddlebags, on four tiny legs. The fireplace is made the center of attraction and before it is laid an old velvet carpet, originally from England and for many years used in the old Angell home in Philadelphia. It is covered almost completely by the figure of a large Newfoundland dog. Coming also from the home of Mr. Angell’s great-grandfather are two mahogany love seats, narrow backed and armless, and upholstered in a dull green, standing on each side of the hearth. Before it is a needle point bench. Behind the bench is a fire screen made by Mrs. Angell. Tire bronze and irons are English. On the mantle are a pair of Staffordshire candlesticks, an old candle snuffer, and a Seth Thomas clock made modern by electricity. A Betty lamp is hooked at one side. Light fixtures on the walls carry out the early American motif, and two antique crystal chandeliers, one trimmed in amber and the other in green, give further light and add to the attractiveness of the room. One very lovely old piece is a walnut settee with figured and plain mohair upholstering. Another is the knee hole desk which, according to Mrs. Angell. is unusual and hard to get. A blown glass lamp with green shade stands on an early American table nearby. Mrs. Angell has grouped several prints that she brought from Europe on one wall, and on another has hung two old Victor Hugo prints bought at his home in Paris. Hugo is not generally known as an artist. Mrs. Angell is somewhat of a collector. At present she is completing her collection of hobnail glass, several pieces of which are displayed on her desk, but most of
