The separate wash blouse TO be worn
with a coat suit in the street, and
with white skirt. or a plaid one. in
the house is as popular today as when
1t was first invented.
There are rumors of its decay day
after day; but Cay by day. it increases
infavor. More are sold and made than
any other separate garment.
There are changes in fabrics now and
then; rather new fabrics are added to
those in stock fo1 use; fashions charge
in detail. but the shirtwaist, pure and
simple, remains the most popular waist
worn by American women
We ad0?t the French name blouse"

the American name for those worn in

little if any lace or embroidery.

but in the majority OF cases. their own
stocks made OF material to match; and
ished with the high starched collar;
but the changes in this latter accessory
are important and will be taken up in
detail.
The first rumor that everyone hears
about the new shirtwaist for autumn is
that it is not to have the frills down
the front box plat, and that the frilled
edges are TO be omitted from the wide
turnover cuffs.
Possibly as far as mere fashion goes.
this change will come about, but women
to whom these frills are becoming will
probably not give them up-they would
be foolish to do so.
1t is doubtful if a prettier or sim

is practical. it is not hard to make. it
washes well, and it is becoming to a
majority of women.
Compare it In Its fresh and neat SIM
plicity with the tawdry one you see on
so many women; cheap lace, badly
washed, coarsely stitched tucks and
thick embroidery.
| Why is it so many i'll fitting, badly
made shirtwaists are worn?
Why isn't a woman far more willing
to sacrifice lace and embroidery trim

Pattern No 5590-The smart little
Russian suits, made to be worn with
full trousers underneath, have always
been popular for little boys, and are

little trousers are in knickerbocker
style, elastic bands combining the full
ness at the knee. A patent leather
belt or one of the same material may
be worn. Cashmere. serge, flannel,

We Are All so busy these days re-
moving freckles from our faces and
rubbing lotions on sunburned noses
that our hands are in a fair way to
be neglected. An artist usually knows
what is truly beautiful, and 1t is a fact
that most artists will notice a beauti-
full hand much more quickly than a
pretty face. A we'll groomed hand is
rarity, even though many people are
careful about the nails. Some other
time I will talk to you about manicur-
ing the nails. buS that is the least part
of the correct care of the hands.
To Keep the Hands IN condition
means infinite painstaking for most
girls. but it is trouble well rewarded.
Hands that are exposed to the sun and
wind without gloves are sure to be
redeemed or Drowned, and very often
the skin is coarsened by such treat
ment Salt water also has a bad effect,
which should be counteracted by wash
ing with a drop or two of ammonia in
it.
Too Much BOrax will dry and harden
the skin, and too much of the am
monia may turn it yellow so take care
In measuring them Ammonia in the
water, either for hands or face, has
drying effect, and should be used
only If the after treatment is attended
to properly. After using, rinse off the
hands in clear water and then rub IN
a little glycerine and rosewater or al
mond oil. Any oil or cream that soft
ems the skin will serve the purpose.
Never wash the hands in hard water
If it can possibly be avoided. Using a
small bran bag in the water will soften
it, or loose bran shaken into the wa
ter pitcher-a pint to four quarts OF
The Lake County times. [volume] (Hammond, Ind.) 1906-1933, 1907-08-31

water-will serve the purpose.
Soft Hands are best acquired by night
treatment. Use the toilet cream that
agrees with the skin the best and rub
it in thoroughly before retiring. taking
especial care to massage the knuckles
we'll. Then slip loose chamois skin
gloves on, to keep the cream on the
hands. Freckles or tan will disappear
if the following ointment is used in
stead of the cream: Rosewater, three
ounces; glycerine. two drains; tincture
of benzoin. one dram; lemon juice, one
dram; borax a quarter of a dram. Rub
the borax with the glycerine; gradu-
ally add the rosewater; lastly. the
tincture of benzoin, stirring constant
ly.
Perspiring Hands may be helped by
the use of a few drops of alcohol in
the water, and a careful powdering of
the gloves very time one goes out. This
may apply more fully later on when
the heavier gloves are being worn. but
it is not too early now to think about
the fall grooming. BY the number of
red hands and arms and wind blown
compilations that one sees at all the re-
sorts this month, there will soon be
need of extra attention in this direc-
ton.
Red Hands may have another cause
than exposure, but few girls stop to
think of 1t when fitting the cuffs or
elbow bands of their shirt waists. A
tight band of any sort on the arm will
make the hands red and puffy. Tight
bracelets are often to blame for trouble
of this kind, and the evils of small
gloves have been spoken of so often
than l need not say very much about
them.

The Kings institution of a new cross
