GOOD CHANGE
Coffee to Postum.

The large army of persons who have
found relief from many chronic all

Postum as daily beverage, is grow

USE FOR THE SEPARATE TUNIc.
Will Transform OId-Fashioned Froek
Into Something Smart.

Clever women have found out that a
separate tunic, made of another ma
terial than the gown and draped over
it, is an excellent method of altering
an old-fashioned frock.
There are some skirts that are too
short to be lifted up even for two
inches on the bodice to give the en-
pire effect. and they are too much
out of style to wear as they are.
If the skirt and bodice are put to-
gether by their Innings and two or
three folds of selfcolored material
neatly draped around the waistline in
order to make 1t invisible, the founda-
ton work is finished.
The tunic may be made of net,
chiffon cloth, bands of net and en-
broidercd satin. or all-over lace edged
with fur or gold galloons.
This is cut with a seam down mid
die of back and neatly draped three
inches above the waistline. headed with
folds of the material or a piece of the
trimming used elsewhere.
This tunic drops from bust to
knees and gives the exact line that it
needs this winter on smart frocks.
