The colors are so subdued that they appear opalescent In effect. when viewed from a dis tance, but upon closer inspection tbey assume the shape of real blos soms painted by the hands of an artist. Thc-se chiffons have one distinctly new feature in bordered e fleets. Tbe edge of the border Is cut out, after the style of the border of wall paper, and thia cut out edge is appllqued against a plain strip of strictly con trading material, velvet being the favorite. A recent Importation of cream chiffon had a deep shadow flower border of yellow daisies with the faintent of brown centers and green leaves. Tbe cut out border was appllqued to a six Inch band of soft black ctaion velvet, and an under dress of pale, dull green completed th cnarming errect. u. - Another design in pink rosea with French gray leaves contrasted with a black velvet band and an odd design of purple pansies, waa thrown into relief by a band of golden brown showing through the ru tout edge. very simply made, is of soft nain sook or cambric, aud Is sometimes finished with a hemstitched hem, or perhaps a scalloped rude that re sembles handwork.

' AID.H TO BE A IT T Falling of the chin, or sagging chin muscles are one of Vauty's surest enemi. The woman with a double chin has small chance of conveying an Imprnston of fresbns and youth. One of the aurest ways of correct ing this tendency Is to study chin poseses in tbe mirror. Pull the chin up and thrust it out, so that tbe dis figuring roll is eliminated, then drop the cbln on tbe ch'Kt, exaggerating tbe fault Ity so doing a definite line of th We of the cbln elevation will be gained . With this practical demonstration in mind, practice carrying the chin high, but not thrust forward. Draw the muscles taut and bold them so, and develop tbe practice Into a habit which will soon become a natural pose Wben drying the face or massag ing it w ith any kind of cream or lotion make the hands into a V shaiied trough by placing the base of the banda together, putting the chin Into tbe V and pushing the bands gntly but firmly up each side of the face to the temples. Repeat thia motion at lemt half a dozen time a day and the excess fulness will gradually dis appear. Never use downward mo tion In maiaging any of the facial muscles, always upward. The ten dency of these miMctea is to fall, and downward pressure hasten this pro ecus. Pujtbiiig them upwards keeps the cheeks full and preventa hollows, the cerialn marks of age, from ap pearing In the face. Pinning a firm bandage of muslin tightly about tbe fcad so that there will be a Arm pretmure under the chin during the night is a barmlews and efficient aid to the foregoing treat ment KI MMMt I I P Dl MII.I.M.
