Another mother with grown sons has

They hold club meetings there. play

house there is a billiard room, where
the father and boys have good time

and are thoroughly comfortable.
The father and mother are both in
terested in all their sons amusements

and help them all they can. 1t Is the
same way with the girls, only the boys
are the ones who are usually the most

BREAKFAST SCHEME

System makes even getting break
fast promptly an easy task, according
to an inexperienced housekeeper who
has just worked out the following
plan. She and her husband live in the
suburbs. and the head of the house
must leave for business at o'clock
in the morning. Incidentally he does
not approve of negligee costumes out
side of the bedroom, so no time saving
in easy dressing can be INDUCED in.
Her way of doing is to put on a
dressing gown as soon as she gets UP,
then she goes to the kitchen. puts the
kettle on to boil, and then returns to
dress. When her toilet is almost fin
ished she slips on a dressing jacket
and returns to the kitchen. BY this
time the kettle is boiling, so she puts
on the oatmeal, using the inner ves-
sci of a double boiler. 1t takes five
minutes for the cereal to cook suffi-
ciently to permit of the upper portion
being put into the lower part of the
boiler. Then, while the upper portion
is cooking on the direct heat, she pre-
pares the melon or other fruit for
breakfast and lays two places at the
table. That done, the double boiler
goes on the heat and the woman re-
turns to her chamber to put on her
dress.
When next she gets to the Kitchen,
in about ten minutes. the oatmeal is
usually done and, thanks to its jacket
of boiling water, she can remove 1t
and still have it hot. Then she makes
a couple of slices of toast by putting
them on the hot iron. When they are
off the kettle 'goes on again for the
eggs and tea.
The latter part of the work takes
not more than six minutes.
The melon is of course, on the table
when her husband comes to the din
ing room, and when they have finished
eating the fruit she takes away those
plates and brings in two dishes of oat-
meal. After she removes these dishes
the eggs are brought on with the toast
and tea.
The girl discovered the other morn
ing that it took but five minutes
longer to cook bacon and fry instead
of boiling the eggs. and also that to
scramble eggs is the work of only
three or four minutes. The whole
process of getting breakfast dressing
at the same time. by actual observa-
ton, requires just seven minutes
longer than is necessary for dressing.

IN HE mother who is wise throws
open her home to her children's
II friends.
One very lonely woman said recent
ly that she never learned to be in
formal and to make friends quickly
because when she was a child her
mother never allowed her to bring her
little friends to her home after school.
At stated intervals the mother would
give children's parties, models of for
mality, but when the little ones want
ed a good time they went to some
other girls house, consequently she
never really had any intimate friends.
Such a thing as inviting a school
mate to stay overnight, in particular,
was simply unheard of. What mis-
take this is! One mother who prides
herself on retaining the love of her
children as well as their confidence
rever refuses them any entertainment
they may plan for their friends. Some
times they write from school they
want to bring home half dozen little
friends for holiday, and the house Is
taxed to overfiowing. but this wise
mother does not stand on ceremony

November Motorist Complexion

should lather quickly with warm
water.
In order to whiten the neck where the
top of the collar has left more or less
definite line of sunburn is not so easy
as If is to bleach the backs of the
hands An excellent plan is that of rub
bing a cut lemon over the neck, night
and morning, after washing. This III
time should act as bleach, the lemon
being left to dry on so as to 1mpart
sticky sensation to the skin. This can
be removed after ten minutes, and
little face cream rubbed well into the
pores. The cream in it's turn should be
removed with very soft towel or Old
linen at night-to leave skin-food to
dry on the skin, as 1t is apt to choke
up the pores, which act, as a matter
of fact, as lungs to the skin, and Keep
1t healthy.
After motoring in the evenings,
good cream should be rubbed In I'M
mediately on entering, while the race
still feels stimulated and at the same
time somewhat dry and parched: A
good, homemade cream can be eVolved
ont of half an ounce Of glycerine, two
ounces of cocoa butter, two ounces
and a half Of lanoline, three ounces OF
rose water, and an ounce and half
of elder-fiower water. This cream can.
besides, be used on cold day prior
to going out, especially before a motor
drive, when the air strikes keenly on
the face.

man prepared her own complexion To-

this mixture was kept close at hand,

FOLDING DRESS SKIRTS

packing and so avoid the crease down
the middle of the front breadth, fasten
the skirtband and pin the back to the
middle of the band in front. Lay the
skirt on a table or other fiat surface,
right side out, with the front breadth
down. Smooth out all creases and lay
folds fiat. Then begin at the outer
edges and roll each toward the center
back until the two rolls meet. In this
way the hang of the skirt is not in
jured, there are no wrinkles and the
front breadth is smooth and fiat. If
the skirt is too long for the trunk, fold
it over near the top and place a roll of
tissue rlaDer under the fold.

n UESTIONS of the complexion begin
to thrust themselves inconveni-
~ emily forward at this time of the
year. In November we seem to enter
new category, and the looking-glass,
with its candid habit of rejecting bitter
home-truths on it's polished surface,
is seldom an encouraging and cheering
companion. After the summer holi-
days have worked their havoc on the
skin,a 1t Is in fact useless 10 put off the
moment when the complexion has to be
taken severely in hand in preparation
for the autumn ball season.
If the water is hard, distilled, or at
least boiled, water should be substitut-
ed. Rain water is, of course, excellent
when it is perfectly clean. Oatmeal
powder or borax wiz soften ordinary
hard water while half another favorite
method Is that of keeping half cut
lemon in the water jug, and reserving
the other half to rub over the backs of
the hands after washing them.
Instead of using ordinary soap, 1t Is a
good plan to substitute for 1t an es-
sonce made with CASTLE soap which is
free from any impurities. An old
fashioned method of making the es-
sence consisted In shaving down three
quarters of a pound of the soap and
adding to 1t an ounce of salts of tar
tar and a pint of spirits of wine. This
was placed in bottle and covered with
bladder, the bottle being stood where
gentle heat would slowly melt the
soap. The bladder was pricked with a
large pin, and the bladder removed
every now and then when the contents
of the jar were shaken, so that the gases
could escape through the hole. When
dissolved. the soap was filtered through
paper and scented with little essence
of lemon. If this recipe is correctly
followed, a bottle of liquid soap should
be the result. which, If kept on the
washstand, will be found most useful
in cold weather, when it is by no means

ming portion of the female sex the bal
lot is a boon. She is a factor whose
power must be respected. Like her
brother, she must be reckoned with at
the polls. Hence, it is her buckler
against Industrial wrong, her protec-
ton against the constant tendency 10

ness. If no other reason existed Ior
comforting this right upon womank1nd
this. to a man of justice, should be all
sufficient"
Prof. Charles A. Beard of Columbia
university, when asked for his opinion
on woman suffrage, replied: Il think
that woman suffrage will come as a re-
suit of the increasing economic lnde-
pendence of woman, which will in turn
sharpen her intellect, force upon her an
interest in the social and economic con-
ditions which are determining her own
destiny in so great a measure, and, nm
ally, give her that self-respect and
self-sufficiency which prevent her from
being content whit the alternate adora-
tion and contempt of the opposite sex"
Great Britain has three papers and
two first-class magazines devoted to
woman suffrage. Holland, Denmark,
Norway, Sweden, Germany, Austria,
Russia Finland, Iceland, France, Bull
garia, Switzerland, Hungary and Po-
land each has a woman suffrage paper,
and few of them have more than one.
Belgium has a woman's paper which
advocates the enfranchisement of wom-
en-, though this is not its chief object.
In these publications twelve languages
are represented, and in each case the
paper is edited and managed by women.
