The Question of Clothes
Copywrlght, 1915,' by The, McClura : Newspaper Syndicate. Entered at " Stationers Hall. London. All rights - reserved, including rights of translation. Publication of this article in whole or In part is expressly proV (hiblted except by special arrangement, with The McClure Newspaper Syndicate. I grew up with such an abborrance of debt that I learned to get along with very few clothes, and now that I . can afford more I do not have as many as most girls, who are dependent on overworked and bard-pushed fathers for every cent they spend. I do not r think it good sense to spend money : foolishly, and it is surely spent foolishly when squandered on garments that are hung in the closets to feed the , moths. ' A good plain suit, never In extreme style, with a neat, little hat, good gloves, clean collar and waist, and shoes well 'polished are in far better taste than the dress so far beyond one's means that it must serve as a rbest dress one year, and with tawdry , and torn adornment appear as a street dress the year following. With good judgment one may buy a suit of very , good material for fifteen dollars, In ' which the wearer always looks well if I she keeps it well pressed and well .brushed. Girls' with round, envious eyes tell .me. what -they would do if they drew ' my pay check every Saturday night, and I tell them, as I tell you, that the more one receives the more one has to pay, sp that the possibilities and limitations remain proportionately the , same. I try to save. I have always done that. With the larger Income, and the taste for luxuries that has grown with It, I want to save as large a share .of my salary as I saved when it was less. , A Matter of Conscience. This is one reason I do not spend ' much on clothes; another is that I have no respect for the woman who hangs clothes on herself as it she were nothing more than a Christmas : tree. I would rather give my money to ' a better cause, .and could never be hap ' py in a seventy-five dollar hat knowing that some child, whom I might relieve, :ls hungry. '. ; It is a sin to go in debt for clothing which one can do without. From Alabama conies a letter from a girl who thinks the gods will be kind to a bride who goes to her husband in pretty clothes she has borrowed the money to buy. She doesn't know that happiness was never bought that way. "I know you receive letters every day asking different questions and favors, and I know that you are tired of ; them, but I hope you will see fit not to refuse me. I am to be married in a short time and you know a girl loves
' pretty clotheB at such a time. My pars ents are poor ' and cannot give me many clothes,, and I am wondering if you will lend me the money to buy some, or give me clothes you do not need. I have one pretty evening dress 1 that cost $10.50. I don't know how we are to pay for my Wedding dress. I could be married in a suit that cost f 25 if I had it. Mother is making me a sweet little lawn , dress with net sleeves, the first. I have ever had and my sister gave me a sweet little lace waist. Miss Plckford, please don't refuse me. I will pay all express char- -. ges." ' A pleasanter impression is left on the mind by the following letter from a twelve-year-old girl in the hills of Arkansas. After expressing her love for me in a frank, girlish way that delights me because of its disinterestededness and sincerity, she says: "Let me tell you something funny. I do not like to take money from Mother and Papa to go to the picture shows
and so-1 work for it, and. oh I bet you could not guess to a hundred year
what I do to earn it! Well, as long as
I know von can't cuess. I will tell you:
Mother gives one cent for .every fly I
kill, and five cents for every June Dug
Every time Mother sees a fly she will
call me and say: "Aneen, nere is a Mary Pickford fly. Now, lent that a
funnv wav to make money 7 . -
at would be lovely to get a letter
from . you. Some say your eyes are bine .and some say they are brown.
Won't you please tell me which. Well, I will have to go set the table for dinner now, so I will close this silly let
ter."
There is such a cheery spirit of independence in her refusal to take money from her parents that she did not earn by her own efforts that I cannot help sighing because all girls are not like her. These are Pollyanna times, when a girl makes independent effort
cheerfully, goes without uncomplainingly, and it is quite the fashion to laugh over old clothes instead of crying for new. I am more than proud of my entomological namesake. Because of the effort it stands for in earning money, and ' the extremely complimentary manner in which the money is spent, I wish there were more "Mary;: Pick-
4ord files" in the world. Even an ugly
crawly, scratchy June bug becomes an object of admiration when its capture means so much toward replenishing
such a treasury.
ANSWER8 TO CORRESPONDENT "What," asks a girl who works in a department store la St. Paul, "do you think the best color and texture for a dress for a working girl?" Black is desirable because no amount of cleaning fades the color; gray is perhaps the best of all, but a trifle old looking for a young girl. Navy blue is always good. I find it serviceable, and prefer it to any other color. No texture wears as well as serge. "How long" and this question comes all the way from the Philippines "should a widow wear mourning?" Frankly, I do not think she should wear mourning at all. It is heathenish to add to the' depression of a household by draping all its female members in .crape, and what makes it a greater crime is that this -4s done at a time when the family treasury is at its lowest point. Sincerity of grief is nev er dependent on attire.

The thousands of women who have sought a safe and painless cure for those - unsightly and hideous blemishes, on the face and arms, should welcome- the following item taken from one of Valeska Suratt's famous beauty articles: "Those disagreeable and unsightly hairs can be safely and surely removed without Injury to the most delicate skin by the use of simple sulto solution. Any druggist can supply you with simple sulfo solution. All you need do Is apply it freely to the hairy places and keep them moist tor a few minutes; after washing off you will find that the hairs have been dissolved away entirely, leatlng the skin Soft and white." About as unsightly as the hideous hairs are the "pesky little blackheads that clog up the pores of the skin and mar the complexion. Ocn't squeeze these out; it won't do any good, but will cause large holes in your skin. Get from your druggist about to ounces of powdered neroxin; sprinkle a little over a sponge made wet with hct water; rub briskly over the billheads, wash off. and you will find that these pesky little things hare been dissolved away, leaving the skin in its natural condition. One of the nicest cream lotions that anycr.e can possibly use on the face, arms, neck and hands to keep the skin soft and velvety, can be made by dissolving one ounce of powdered zlntone In a pint of hot water. This should be applied freely at night bf
t fore retiring, after washing well with
plenty of soap and hot water and a i splash of cold water. Try it for a few i nights and note the wonderful fresh feeling you have when you awake in -Ithe morning. Adv. , ,
