NOVEL SUIT] jwja <HI& *tm ff.^ yQSSSgBSB ■.<•„■ J BH si fK^fli i-' &: < - Aft JH CAN you imagine a better use for 11 balls of white homespun yarn than this smart and practical two-piece Dal matian suit for all-round wear? The scarlet facing is effective and different, and the black braiding gives an unusually “expensive” look. The black braiding uses only 1 ball and the facing in scarlet only 1 ball. The cape is a matter of choice. It uses 8 yards of white homespun yarn and 8 balls of black modeen yarn. Made in a simple stitch, it adds considerable warmth and smartness to the costume without much extra cost. Smart, up-to-date and certain to give long wear, this novel outfit is particu larly w’ell-suited for traveling purposes. Should you sail across the Atlantic Ocean to Yugoslavia, you'll find that you have ‘gone native” for the braided costume has been “tops” among these people for years. Designed by Mary Louise Custis, it is warm, yet light enough to be graceful, calls for no great skill and comes within the budget of most girls. If you decide to make it for yourself, Mrs. Penrose Lyly will be pleased to send you instruc tions.

Flowers for Your Home in the Japanese Manner AMCCORDING tQ Margaret Preininger of I the University of California in Los Angeles, there is an Oriental proverb— " Customs and manners may differ, but the love of flowers is common to all peo ples.” Miss Preininger has just completed an amazingly beautiful volume, "Japanese yu&lcling IfoutKi Heautu By Mrs. Penrose Lyly VOUTH has its problems as well as its ■I beauty. Acne, blackheads and en larged pores come to blight many an ado lescent's happiness. The flawless loveli ness such as shown in the study at the right by John McSherry is more often the result of care than of unassited nature. Acne is probably the greatest bane of youth. But juvenile acne, as it is called when manifested in the 'teen ages, can be banished. A famous authority gives some rules for getting free of its blight. The first step is to prevent the arrival of acne. Avoid cheese if you are inclined to suffer from this juvenile irritation of the skin, also avoid smoked fish, much meat and most fat and greasy fooda Eat fruit religiously and start each day with a glass of water. Keep your bowels regu lar and take some form of exercise every day. Twice a day wash the face in warm water with an absolutely pure soap. Rinse in cold water, and give your face and body some form of massage. ♦ * * ■yrOUTHFUL acne is usually caused by A the outer layer of the skin clogging the pores and forming blackheads. A pimple foNns itself around the blackheads, though all blackheads do not necessarily have pimples. When the pimple bursts or is scratched open, there is a discharge of pus, and that pus, unless completely removed, causes other pimples. So the important thing is to prevent this self infection. Whe nyou squeeze out a pimple remem ber that the damp part is filled with thousands of microbes which can reinfect your face. Therefore, immediately after opening the pimple, disinfect the pore with a little absorbent cotton dipped in a 1 per cent solution of carbolic acid <never use a stronger solution). Allow this cotton pad and its disinfect ing solution to remain on the squeezed pimple for at least 10 minutes, and allow it to cover also the surrounding surface of the face. In about 10 or 15 minutes the disinfect ing will be complete and the danger of the pimple still emitting a serum will be over. That little business is very important to the prevention and cure of acne. Too many girls thing the banishment of one pimple will stap acne. They banish one, only to create many more if they do not disinfect. * • • BESIDE this treatment, and the diet recommended, the washing and the exercise, slapping helps. Slap your face until it stings. This will bring vigorous circulation to the surface. Sluggish cir culation is one cause of acne, so the more vigorous your circulation becomes, the sooner will the blight be driven from your otherwise lovely features. Flower Arrangement for Modern Homes,” in which she illustrates her instructions on making a few simple flowers into a beautiful decorative addition to any room. Japanese flower arrangements are sim ple, almost classic in many cases, not like so many of our favorite clusters and masses of riotous color. Miss Preininger explains the difference in her book, show ing how startlingly beautiful a few flowers can become when grouped in the Japanese manner. For the modern American woman who seeks simplicity and line in her clothes and in her furniture, the examples given by this American student of a great Japanese art will be welcome and helpful. An informal arrangement of a few rug ged but delicately constructed branches of blossoming quince, and an arrangement of yellowr-igalla lilies and leaves are shown here. She calls attention to the spots on the leaves which are translucent, adding lightness and interest to the whole effect. * * • A HEAVY oval bronze bowl 11 inches in diameter is the base, and in it hides a round holder of needle points. The porous stems are made to stand on this holder. The harmony of color is created here by the bronze of the bowl, the yellow lilies, the deeper yellow pistils and the luminous spots on the green leaves and }%O: W / •’ * . / '•* t* ■ •. ■NkW - ■' * < *<<i .< t- c s Hr ;:*t I '' h ' ' ' HHfHnHfHfsH ■ and ideals, caught I B rHH^CT’^PHHH|| V : '*9 29Hr^H I I Hr | 1 • < V fv. wH&f (&§: < jm£* X'V; ' hhmmhbmmhmmmßl Hi *■ -L*’'* '■‘'L - v BpHrapHß .
