FOR THE NEW YEAR

DOSAMUNDE, DEAR,— So now you want advice as to "something different" for New Year You say you are "sick to death" of the wine shades and the tans that every second girl sports this season, so we come to light with a suggesPicture to yourself, O fickle one, a top-coat in grey kasha cloth, cut on mannish lines, a skirt in the same Quaker shade, and a jumper all grey and green stripes, with a belt of lizard skin or green suede. Then your hat, a sporting grey felt or velour a la the type worn by Mr. Thomas Mix or any of those film gentlemen, who WILL kiss their horses. Next, your shoes. Lizard-skin they should be, and your stockings and pull-on gloves should be in beige colors. Flaunt a vivid scarf and handkerchief in the color beloved of the sons of Erin, and, we ask you, what more could you want? If you carry this out faithfully, you will have a sports rig-out that, in between chukkas, will be the envy of your own sex and the admiration of the dashing males of the great open spaces. Not, of course, that you seek such things as envy and admiration. Still — oh, well, doubtless you won't find it too revolting. Bye-bye, dear heart, Thine, JASMINE.
