rue Bolero and Eton Jacket.
Who will persuade the short, stout
woman that the'bolero and Eton jack-
ets. with the cleaning ceinturee or gir-
dles which accompany them and are
now so much worn, are not for her? It
is pathetic, says a New York fashion
writer, the way women make them-
selves unattractive by studying other
vvomen’s fashions instead of their own.
Every woman who has reached the age
of 25 has achieved by accidentor inten-
tion some time in her life a becoming
toilet. It may have been piecemeal—a
hat that specially suited her, a gown
that her friends spoke of, a jacket or
mantle that she knew she looked well in
n—but let her remember the combination
and forever dress on that model. It
must be modified and adapted to the
prevailing style, but a little care will
do this, and in these days of infinite va-
riety of fabric and garniture it is easy
to avoid monotony.
