I HAVE some news for you this
week about next season s sash
lons, but before I give you thia
little peep into the future I want to
bring before you. if I can. a mental
picture, at any rate, of the present
mode as displayed to absolute per
faction by a certain lovely Ameri
can girl (there was no mistaking
her nationality, even though I never
heard her speak) whom I saw and
admired whole-heartedly at the
Ritz the other night. She was in
very truth “divinely tall” and fair,
and her willowy figure was Jus',
swathed in flesh-colored chiffon--
over, of course, ninon and char
meuse of the same delicately sug
gestive shade, though of these
inner fabrics there was no outer
sign, so cleverly was the most
filmy of the three materials ar
ranged. It was. in fact, the su
preme triumph of the apparently
unstudied simplicity, which, as 1
well know, demands the greatest
•kill for its successful interpreta
tion. nd furthermore, being wise
above most worn' -, this beautiful
creatur had crowned her flesh
colored robe c i her fair, smoothly
curled hair with an enormous
black hat; also and absolutely un
trimmed. so th there was nothing
to break its m rvellous “line." For
< ments she had just a rope of
perfect pearls hanging almost to
her knees, and one huge single
pearl ring, and. perhaps, I need
hardly tell you. that her shoos and
stockings were also flesh-colored
in tint and respectively charmeuse
and stlk as to their fabric. The cor
sage of the dress was arranged in a
deeply cut V about the neck, while
the sleeves continued their shirred
softness of chiffon far over the
hand.
I should like to hate photographed
this delightful costume so that, it
might he shown in my story this
week. But I am sending you pic
tures of three costumes that are
just as perfect in their wav as the
one I have just described. As you
already know, gray-green and
green-blue are favorite eouibina
tions of knine. One of ntv Paris
costumers tells me that green must
he my “mascot!’ color. 1 always
like a touch of it on everything 1
make
If green, then, is lU y mascot
color, the afternoon gown I am
showing you must be my “mascot"
dress, for it Is created of green
blue crepe charmeuse, the heavy
lustrous kind that drapes almost
without effort. The skirt, as von
will see is. is one piece. It is made
of the flfty-four-inch-wide fabric

or counteract every mood. For instance: One mood,
not unlike that ol a child anticipating a pleasure, re
quired a pink gown : another, lavender, etc. This would
have been simple enough, but I read further and dis
covered that these gowns must be made according to
certain rules or they would entirely fail in their pur
pose. I imagined the look of unfeigned fear on my
dressmaker s face, should I tell her that I wauled a jov
rutile on my pink gown or that the melancholy piping
was out of place <m the fawn. I forsook that branch of
beauty advice and felt grateful that I had not gone 100
far to turn back.
I'heii the endless diets, exercises, aiipiialie- s and
suggestions were followed with almost fiendish eager
ness. After a I utile search for beauty by all the roads
presented by The Beautiful I one day despaired.
It was in my desperate hour that I discovered the
real secret of beauty good health. Xoi the half-way
health which causes one to avoid certain dishes for fear-
of indigestion, nor the half-hearted
stale which lacks enthusiasm for
pleasure. Tim beautiful health must
be a strong, capable, purposeful con
dition with a keen interest in the joy
of living and doing.

small portion of the body.
But yet I was not discouraged. In fact, I was sub
limely happy, for at the moment I discovered that good
health means beauty I found “Try-New-Life.’’
Iry-New Lite is well described by its name.
I no longer needed to lame muscles, bruise flesh and
endure tortures for the sake of gaining health and
beauty. All I needed was this simple, marvelous inven

say T am—outrageously well? Then “Try-New-Life”
is what you need to change you from a person half
alive to one radiantly well and vibrant.
The list of ailments for which my friends and my
family have used “Try-New-Life” would make the
index of a medical encyclopedia envious. At first it
was hard to convince some of my friends that neuralgia
could be positively cured by its use, hut now they are
as ready as 1 am to admit that the wonder worker will
remedy all chronic ailments.
It is a simple principle—aiding Nature in her
work. It is a pleas
ant treatment and
a restful one.
There is no sensa
tion of being doc
tored or disturbed.
Best of all, it is a
real remedy with

ter-effects.
The day of
drugging has pass-
ed. We no longer rush for medicine or the doctor for
every little ailment. Our doctors despise us if we do,
for they know full well how ineffective drugs are save
in emergencies when a shock is needed.

you will see, this drapery caught
up as it is in the back, gives a
semi-pannier effect.
I wish that I might show vou a
'lew of the back. The crepe is
>oped through a wide crystal
duckie just above the knees.
The bodice is a modification of
my peasant model. You will notice
that there are no armholes. Little
turn back cuffs of Nile green satin
are the only finish on the sleeves
t nKe particularly the collar and
apron of cream-colored lace This
collar and apron and the edge of
the skirt are piped with the green
satin.
One of the tenets of my faith
is that the girdle either greatly
enhances, or mars the gown. The
girdle on this costume is Oriental
In design. It is made of curious
flowers in shades of rose, blue and
green.
And still another green afternoon
gown is here pictured. This sec
ond costume is more formal than
tne first. It is of satin charmeuse
•nd is suitable for the races or
any in town formal occasion. The
skirt is shirred at the bottom in
the back and this pdge is bound
with brown skunk fur.
The front fastening is novel and
is being accepted by all Ohio Parie
lenaes. The skirt is very plain. The
green satin buttons and small
loops are its only decorations. In
this coat, the sleeves are long, nar
row and set in several Inches below
the shoulder line. The length of
the sleeve necessarily gives the
smart mousquetaire effect.
The girdle is exquisite. It Is
Oriental. The beads are vari
colored and Iridescent and I have
ured touches of chenille embroid
ery also. The long tassel is of
green silk.
The third costume of blue serge
and gold braid I call my army
gown. The front of the skirt Is
severely lain. The back Is draped
just above the ankles. The girdle
of gold braid with its black eash
•nd gold tassels and the knob-like
gold buttons are decidedly ehie
touches to this severe costume. Os
course, a tiny lace collar is worn,
and cuffs to match
In this costume the armholes are
four inches below the normal line,
Os course, the hat is small and
simple. It is of pale gold velour
and the military pompon is of
vieux blue.
