I ably over an hour to digest and to drink
| another glass before the first one is
| digested is to stir up difficulty with the
! digestive organs. Really the best way to
! drink buttermlk is with the meals, though
i it may be drunk between meals as sort
! of easily digested lunch.
! Sage Tea Tonic.
| Green tea, two ounces: garden sage. two
ounces; put in a saucepan which can be
| covered closely and pour over the herbs
| three quarts of boiling water. Let simmer
! until reduced one-third. Take off the fire
| and let stand for twenty-four hours; strain
and bottle; apply every night before retir-
| ing. Dry well or the tonic will stain the
! pillow.
Odor of Perspiration.
Rub baking soda well into the armpits.
Lotion for the Skin.
a soothing lotion is used with good re-
suits after the face has been exposed to
| high winds. 1t has much the appearance
! of liquid powder and comes in white and
| pink for different complexions. If the
! skin is rough and of bad color, this lotion
| should be used every day, since it is a
| corrective OF these faults and not 50 ag-
| gressve in effect as to be injurious. 1t is
/ the best thing possible for preventing that
unattraCtive. weather-beaten, blowsy COM
| plexion caused by motoring in the high
wind.
Caring for Wardrobe.
! Wishing to give your wardrobe proper
| care you must not forget to look every day
at the binding of your skirt. at the but
tons on your boots, at your veil and gloves.
Indeed. you must glance at all that has
| unceasing wear. A fresh binding some
times will alter the entire appearance of a
girl. making her look neat and dainty
where before the ragged edges Of her skirt
suggested that she was at once untidy and
! ignorant. Shabby finery is inexcusable
| Chiffon that has become worn and ragged,
| when it cannot be replaced. should be re-
moved and something simpler substituted
! for it. Tears. worn places and rips never
/ are seen on the well-bred girl for from her
| early youth she has learned how to WELD
| h"r needle well and mend her belongings
! with as much daintiness as she embroiderS
Becoming Wells.
Despite the rumor in the spring that
| French women no longer would wear wells
| American women returning from France
| say that even greater attention than ever
| IS paid TO this becoming and necessary
| article. The boUle. ball spot. is the
| favorte in Tuxedo wells in Paris The
| spots are large and near together. The
| lace veil is used extensively by French
| milliners. and in both lace and Tuxedos
the colOred veil predominates.
! Among the most attractive of the new
lace wells shown in the shops are those
with figured net centers and borders of
lace. The most extreme styles have Wide
borders of fanciful design and are eXpeu-
sive. The inCh-wide borders are worn by
conservative women not only because they
are not so eXorbitanuy high priced, but be-
| cause they are less Conspicuous.
Chenille dots are considered smart for
the face wells, although velvet dots are
seen on few of the styles. The novelty
| among the dotted wells is the chenille bril-
| liante or satin chenille Spots generally
| are larger than they have BEEN though pin
dots are shown because of their becoming
ness to some women.
