I By JANICE JAMES Time is one aspect of life not to be treated lightly in the world of today. Even in the days of old, time hung heavy on the necks of the aristocracy because of the early watches made of ii'on and wood. With a diameter of four or five inches, these torturous timepieces ,,,had to be worn around the neck on a chain. Even with all the discomfort, these were considered luxuries to be enjoyed only by the wealthier classes. CRYSTALS were unknown wlen the first watches made their appearance on the fashion market. As a matter of fact, not, even a reasonable facsimile appeared un- til the late sixteenth century when the tulip design was one of the favorites of watchmakers. One petal of the flower was hinged so it would lift up to re- veal the dial of the watch. A step forward came when this petal was carved from rock crystal, thus creating the first watch crystal. Grandma joined the parade of time with an innovation of lapel watches. These took the form of padlocks, insects and crosses. Even before the bustle age, xthough,blapel watches were en- j oying a reign of popularity. * * * s AMONG THE fantastic types seen in the sixteenth century was one in the shape of a death's head. The case was designed in the form of a skull, and the jaw opened to reveal the dial. Mary, Queen of Scots, was believed to have been the owner of a particularly gruesome watch which bore the inscrip- tion, "Time consumes all things." Incidentally, the timepiece had the appealing shape of a coffin! Today's trend in timepieces, though, seems to be in a lighter vein with lapel watches disguised as windmills, sunbursts and baller- inas. Nevertheless, they can't du- plicate the watch designed for the Czar Nicholas of Russia. * * * Smith-Brown. Mr. and Mrs. Donald A.

APPLICATION INNOVATION: lY T'1"D T1E '" It l1 /1Tr+' Ir t~imert tuL1ve n- Dotting perfume behind the pe ears is out of date! ve "It is far more effective to ap- he ply the fragrance with a hand- hie kerchief or wad of cotton to five e- other choice spots," says Captain et Molyneux, a leading French per- r fumer and couturier. ter Mentioned as the favored per- ind fume. places by Captain Molyneux gh, were the eyebrows, the hairline, tier the arms from the wrist to above the elbow, the elbow bone and the - base of a plunging neckline. The woman whose skin absorbs perfume more quickly than others will have to apply it more fre- quently and more lavishly. Captain Molyneux reports that the perfume consciousness of the American woman will never equal that of the French woman, who, in his words, "perfumes herself so completely that she scents every room she walks through." More and more, however, the American woman is learning what a charming effect a delicate aura [RS s Newi oI uct of fragrance has anywhere at any- time. She is taking the advice of her European sisters and is not leaving those bottles of Christmas perfume to decorative disuse on the dressing table.
