Yet it costs half what cream

Add two parts water and YOU

But YOU have no waste. The

Never too much or too little.

To darken or dye the brows Is the great
est possible mistake. The constant use OF
grease will eventually darken naturally,
though the process is very slow Better
this than dye or pencil application.

Practical Laundry Bags.

Attractive and practical laundry bags
are made up from the common brown
crash combined with cretonne. the latter
preferably in tapestry designs. The upper
parts-two-thirds-will be of the crash
and the bottom of cretOnne.
The tops have the hoop finish. and the
soiled articles can be released from the
bottom, so that such bag is extremely
handy.
Waste paper baskets to match may be
bought which are made to fold. For va
cation use l am sure these accessories
would prove very useful.

Charming Cushion Covers.

. Small table covers of printed wash fab
brics make charming cushion covers. and
with so little trouble. too. The cushion
to be covered is laid in the center of the
cover and the four corners are folded en-

cover in place. SO that it can be very

HOW EYEBROWS CAN
BE MADE BEAUTIFUL

. RETTILY arched and regular eye
brows are desired by women. Lack
IF care is the reason sharply defined
arches over the eyes are SO rarely seen.
The average woman neither brushes nor
treats them until such time as she awak-
ems to the fact that her face is sadly void
in this particular. and she then demands
tonics that will beautify over night. and
treatment that will perfect in a week.
Treatment for Brows.
In identifying brows a soft brush must
De constantly used and frequent applica-
tons Of vaselne. that is. using 1t twice a
day. morning and night, will be beneficial,
especially If. instead of brushing. the
grease is rubbed in with the finger tips.
This rubbing must be done from the nose
toward the other end of the brows. The
stroke of the brush must be given in the
same direction. The hair must never be
turned the wrong way. When the finger
tips are employed. the movement should
be short and fairly hard. that is. sufti-
GENTLY so to stimulate circulation.
A beneficial unguent to put on in this
way is almond OIL the sweet variety. Oil
of cajuput is another good tonic. Several
drops of this are rubbed into the brows
every other night. A combination of red
vaseline in the proportion of an ounce to
half a dram Of tincture of cantharides
and seven drops each OF oil of lavender
and rosemary strengthens the hair. This
is rubbed in morning and night.

when you first use Van Camp
Milk in cooking.
Such richness, such f1avor-yo,l
will wonder where we obtain it.
1t comes solely from milk.
Van Camps is simply rich Hol-
stein milk, with two-thirds the
water evaporated.
Nothing is altered. nothing add
ed. No sugar, no starch, no pre-
sentative.
TlIe delicious flavor surprises
you simply because you are not
used to whole milk.

In Van Camps alone do YOU get
all OF the milk elements, Just as
they come from the COW.
You don't know what YOU miss
YOU who still cling to the milk
man.
Make just one milk dish with
Van Camps and you'll be con
verified forever.
You'll know. for the first time
maybe, the exquisite flavor that
comes from whole, rich milk.
That flavor is enhanced when
you know that the milk is pure.
