HOUSEHOLD NOTES
BY Maude E. cilIsy.

An application of lemon juice and
salt in a good sun exposure is an
old and effective remedy for fruit and
many other kinds of stains.
In washing brown stockings, do not
use blue water; this is the reason that
so many brown stockings look faded
after coming from the wash.
When the asbestos of a gas log be-
comes blackened, sprinkle it with
salt; then light the gas and the
feathery mineral will soon turn white
again.
To avoid tearing sash curtains when
passing a rod through their hens, put
a thimble on the end of the rod, when
they will slip through easily.
When beaten eggs are added to a
hot mixture, always pour the mixture
into the eggs. beating vigorously the
while. This will prevent curdling.
An egg shampoo is easily made
Beat two eggs until all stringinesI

disappears, add the juice of lemon,
and use it on the head just as you
would soap.
For sleepIessness, take a hot bath,
then drink a cup of hot milk. If the
desire for sleep does not come, re-
peat after two hours. Have a little
salt in the milk.
If the tops of young turnips are
thoroughly cleaned they can be used
with the diced turnips and be boiled
the same as cabbage. They make a
very good dish.
If a fine toothed comb is used on
the hair, just take a small strand at
a time, placing the comb close to the
roots and drawing it clear to'the end
of the strand
For the picnic luncheon, pineapples,
cut into slices, sugared and wrapped
in oiled paper. will be found to keep

most refreshing.

spices. salt, mustard. baking powder.
etc, before measuring. because more
of the quantity will be used than call
ed for if measured first.
When changing sheets and pillow
cases, put q little dried lavender
leaves in the pillow cases. The
leaves can be used again and again,
and the fragrance is very lasting.
While odds and ends of roast meat
may be used for soup. care should be
taken never to use any charred pieces,
as the smallest particle will give it an
unpleasant flavor.
Broken orris root has more of the
odor of violets and is better than the
powdered variety. When placed in
bureau drawers, it imparts a delicate
! flavor TO the contents.

sired length and bind with white bias

kerchief or wear a night cap. Brush
out the salt in the morning.

Lace dinner gowns are extremely
smart this summer, and as the sea-
son advances a greater variety is to be
noticed.
For summer evening there can be
nothing more charming and more
suitable than the white lace gown.
A lace gown that is most attractive
has a skirt, in five scant tucks. over
a close fitting satin lining that. out
lines the figure and makes it appear
slender, although there is consider
able width TO the skirt. This width
is drawn in under a wide fold or band
of satin that starts at the left side
of the broad satin belt and goes di-
agonally across the front Of the skirt

while again another line of fringe
goes diagonally across the waist from
below the shoulder to the belt, just
edging a wide fold of the satin.
The entire body and sleeves Of the
waists are Of the figured lace and
the sleeves are finished with a narrow
fringe TO match the trimming on the
skirt.
The gown was originally designed
for a low cut waist, but can easily
be changed to a high neck or one of
the gathered lace net robes and col
lar can be added.
Even with the yoke it is an elabor-
ate style, and consequently In reality
far better suited to the low cut waist.

Few girls can wear this even round

neck, no matter how It is obtained.
Therefore, If a girl wants to be fash

collars, to look we'll in it she should
dip it down to suit her neck.
An interesting innovation In hair
dressing was noticed last week.
In lieu of the coiling braids a
beautifully and modishly gowned
young matron had substituted heavy
twist of tulle. which encircled her
coiffure loosely, the end being fast
ened invisibly. without bow or knot
of any kind.
The twist of tulle was thick and

WHAT MILADY NEEDS

The fiat. round plated frill has
usurped the place Of the round, fiat,
lace collar. It is not becoming, as a
rule, but that makes no difference to
the votaries of fashion. This frill
is made Of very sheer material laid in
fiat plaits which spring out about an
inch from the edge. The edge is
nearly always finished with lace.
The collar is intended to be worn
with a slightly low neck OF white
blouse in the same way that the Peter
Pan and Dutch collars have been ap-
piled.
The small frill goes straight around

BLOUSE WITH SIDE PORTIONS AND

With Under-Arm Cores Extended to
Form under Portions of Sleeves.

Form under Portions OF sleeves.
The blouse that is cut in one with
the sleeves continues to be favorite
of fashion but the neatest demand is
for snug fit under the arms and this
one is so cut as to produce that effect
with satisfaction. It is very simple, also
very easy to make. while it gives be-
coming lines to the figure. 1t can be
made either with or without a lining
and with three-quarter or with long
sleeves, and il is consequently adapted
to a great many different uses. The de-
sign is Just as fashionable for the odd
waist as 1t is for the entire gown and
the neck can be finished with a collar
or collarless, with a frill as illustrat-
ed, or can be cut out to form a shall
low square or V. All materials that
are used for gowns and waists are ap-
propriate. Marquisettes, voiles and
nets made over silk foundations viii
be much worn throughout the COM
ing season and the model suits such
as we'll as it does fabrics of heavier
sort
The waist is made with fitted lin
ing and consists of front, backs and
the side portions that are cut in one
with the sleeves. There are under
arm cores, too. that are extended into
the sleeves and which can be cut in
one piece or two as the exigencies
