EmbrOidering Thin Waists.

That summer waists will show a bit
of color Is attested by the model waists
already purchased. The bit of color is
very pretty and so s~paringly used that
1t will not be out of harmony to wear
the waist with a white skirt. In MAX
ing a waist with the dash of color Sc
lect one tone, not several, and make
the design in rings, dots, dashes or
very small eyelets. The few eyelets
give a more artistic finish, but they
need not be used in great numbers.
For a white waist the yoke, cuffs and
collar can be decorated with pink, old
rose, green. khaki, lavender and tan.
Do not-make the design so bold it will
detract from other good waist fea-
lures. >

They Want to Marry Quietly.

Dear Miss Doom:
i am keeping company with a young
girl two years by senior, and would
like your advice. l am 90, and We want
to get married quietly, without letting
our parents know. I am working stead
lily. and could support us, as I am max
ing fifteen dollars a week. Please let
me know if you have to get a license
to get married in Newark. and oblige,
A. II.
You will not require a license if you
are both residents of New Jersey.
Otherwise, yes. I think you are both
very foolish TO consider it necessary TO
be married secretly. Surely, you are
old enough to decide for yourselves,
and eve if your parents did object it
would make little difference. Don't you
know how much it win hurt them to
discover that you considered them not
at all? I'd tell them in advance, if I
were you.

which reason it should be. kept In boxes
with silverware to prevent rust.
If a boiled custard is neglected 1t
cooks lumpy. If 1t is removed from the
stove and beaten with an egg beater
the Jumps will disappear. Use a wheel

Save the shoe-polish daubers from
liquid polishes, since they are useful
for polishing stoves. A small sponge
can be inserted in the wire when the
brush is wore out.
Clean cork linoleum by using tepid
water, in which there is enough house

Ammonia and skinned milk will clean

augmented by the conventional rufiing

He ForsoOk Her for Her Cflum.

Ny Dear Miss Doom:
I have been going with a young man
for W years. He always acted like a
gentleman and pretended to love me. I
think a great deal of this young man.
About a month ago I introduced him TO
a girl chum. Since then he has paid a
great deal of attention TO her and very
little to me. At Christmas and New
Years he sent postcards to all of his
friends. written in ink, and sent me one
addressed in pencil. Do you think l
should take that as an insult? Please
tell me what he means. Thanking you
in advance, I am LOVER.
You are silly to bother your head
about him. If I were you I would let
my friend have hiu, and be glad thai |
found out what sort Of chap he was
before l began TO like him seriously. I
don't think there's much significance
attached to the postcard incident.

NEEDLE and THREAD
For the Amateur EmbrOiderer.

A wild carrot design on a cushion
top will be found simple and
easy to do, as the most promi-
nent part of the design, the
flower, is worked entirely in French
knots. A double thread of silk will be
best with which to make these, twisted
once around the needle. 1t will
also be found more convenient to use
a frame or hoop for the work, so it
will not be drawn in making.

When it came to a boil she added a

makes ironing easier, but prevents the
