KB VOGUE of the printed
~handkerchiefs knotted and
I., .3“. worn around the neck
"Ni started last summer at that
most famous of all French watering
places—Beauvllle. The world‘s smart-
est women who gather there yearly
wore them with their bathing suits
and with their sports suits—gay ban-
dannas. knotted around their throats.
The vogue spread to America. but
took a different form. The girls and
women here. in New York particular-
ly. adopted the printed silk handker-
chief. But they called it a muffler
and they were it. with a fur coat or
with cloth coats in general—and more
are adopting the idea every day.
Now the men are doing it. At
Rogers and Stevens, 14 SOuth ‘Main
Street. while I was looking at. muf-
flers to go with new overcoats.‘ I saw
not only the angors. and camel’s hair
ones. but polka-dotted pongees and
—the printed silks that resemble the
Deauvllle “neckerchiefs.”
Some mighty good-looking over-
coats were there too. All stylgs and
all fabrics and. several attractive
prices. Light colored overcoats are by
far the most popular this season. I
learned. Polo-cloths predominate and
the lighter colored plaid backs are
second favorites. Nothing but a ra-
glan sleeve will do and if you “follow
the crowd" your coat must have a
belt.
in gray; full lined with Skinner's silk
and priced at $29.50. Overcoats range
in price from 325 to $35 and upwards.
HE BABY should come in for
his share of’attention when
it comes to getting warm
things for wear this wintry
weather. Which is by way of being
an inane remark. since he probably
gets all of the attention of nearly
every member of the family. But you
know what I mean. I expect. \
Quite often he is bundled up in sev-
eral blanketts to acquire the neces-
sary warmth during dressing and. un-
dressing time. But he needs a bath-
robe as much as the older children
and the grownups in 1he family. If
there isn't time to dress him before
breakfast slip on his little bathrobe
and put him in the high chair. He’ll
be warm and comfortable.
At the Fair Department store, 51
South Main Street. I saw some nice
warm wooly bathrobes in white. bound
with either pink or blue satin ribbon
——for $1.49.

ON‘T LET the New Year grow
day older. before you have
bought a diary and an en-
gagement desk pad, or if it
suits your taste better—a calendar
engagement desk pad. One or the
other is essential for noting appoint-
mentk—you may think your memory
is good. you will forget. something
importa‘ if you don't write it down.
and as for a diary. it is a permanent
record of events not only interesting
but helpful in fixing dates. etc.
Lots of busy folks don't like the
time involved in keeping a regular
diary and they write in their "Line-
A-Day" books. which cover a span of
five years. It's convenient to have a
record of five years’ important hap-
penings in one volume._ A space of
about five lines for each day is pro-
vided.
Leather covered "line-a-day”"books,
with gold-tooled titles. come in sever-
al shapes. They have them ntsDonel-
ly’s. 18 South Main Street. from $2
up. They have also a complete line
of engagement books and desk csl-
endars.

[NTER IS frightfuily hard on
compiexions as all of us
very well know. First we
fwash our faces in tepid wa-
ter. then we rush out into a blustering
wind—-or maybe into a snow or a rain
storm. And our tender skins are ex-
posed to the swish of the snow or rain
and are dampened considerably.
The next stop most likely is a store
or an office—some close, overheated
building in nine cases out of ten—
where the steam heat dries and pucl"
era the delicate skin of the face.
And yet there are thousands upon
thousands of beautiful complexions.
\Ve see them everywhere. And a
snow only makes the cheeks more
bright. The secret lies in such a very
little care. After the face is washed
it should have a protective coating.
Who would go out without gloves on
the hands in winter?
Mr. Mead, whose drug store is at 8
North Main Street gave me a sample
the other day of Creme de Meridor. a
new greaseicss cream put out by Laz-
ell. A thin coating rubbed well into
the skin before faring outdoors will
protect the most delicate of skins. A
large ja'r l‘s only 25 cents. Drop in
and get a sample.

NOTHER SALE. and :1 good
one is the pro-inventory
sale. in full swing at the
V Palace Clothes Shop. 13
North Main Street. There are bar-
gains in all sorts of articles. but the
biggest reductions seems to be in the
line of men‘s suits and overcoats.
. There's an old saying—and a popu-
lar one among furnishe'rs to men—-
that "You will never rue a blue." A
blue suit of course. that means. And
it's a pretty good rule to follow. One
may buy an excellent quality blue-
serge at the Palace Shop during the
sale for $24.50. '
And Suzanne’s selection from
among the overcoats was a warm.
fleecy plaid-backed raglan, priced at
$23.75. One may choose a light or a
dark brown: a coat that is smartly
belted or that swings loose' in a de-
fashion. .

SNOWSTORM leaves two
things greatly to be desired
—a warm house and shov-
elled sidewalks when one
ventures forth. Both mean quite~a
bit of effort and trouble—but the
trouble and effort mean comfort and
health. So. of course. we all cast
about for themimplcst way.
Keeping the house "arm may not
be as easy this year as it was when
the bin was filled to the top—and one
could burn all the coal one cared to,
secure in the knowledge that there
was more where that came from. But
it is by no means impossible. There
are gas heaters a-plcnty. quite rea-
sonably priced—and Perfection oil
stoves to supplement orb-if you don't
care about heating by gas—to substi-
tute for them.
They have numerous sizes and
styles at Rosenfleld Brotheréi 125
\Vashington Street. They have ash-
sificrs to help you save every part].
cie of coal. too, and ash cans of all
descriptions. ‘
And a. variety of aids to “the clean-
ed sidewalk." Shovelling snow is not
such a terrible job when the right
