FOR THE WOMAN. WHO DOES
HER OWN IRONING.

HERE is a good suggestion or two
for he woman who does her own
ironing. First Of all, be sure that you
are dressed comfortably. A loose and
! thinner blouse than is usually worn is
. of much advantage in keeping cool.
When the work is completed change
to the regular apparel and the chilly.
uncomfortable feeling. so common
after a days ironing. win be avoided.
If there is big days work have an
old cushion upon which to stand No
one knows how much it will rest the
tired feet unless it has been tried.
The irons should be clean and
smooth The board should be covered
with a cloth in which there are no
seams or patches. as these make shiny
streaks or creases in any garment
pressed over them. which is especially
undesirable in fine linen or wool
goods An old flannel sheet is very
good covering to tack to the board. and

readily. especially il they are starched

In pressing good. or clothes where
it is customary to place a cloth over
them before ironing use a newspaper
instead: it gives gloss to ribbon or
silk. leaves no lint. stiffens cambria IL

scorched the newspaper can h.

If seams are pressed over a broom
stick or any rounded edge. care being
taken to keep them straight, there
will be no shining streak to mark their
length, as is often the case when the
pressing is done upon a flat surface.

when convenient. taken to a regular
laundry. and blessings indeed are
these institutions to the tired mother
who has all the work she is able to do
without being burdened with doing up
the best blouses and frocks.

One of the smar1est and most useful
gowns for spring and summer is the
embroidered robe of pongee. The nat
ural colors. duh mahogany reds, sage
greens. old blue and gold are among
the shades most approved. The en-
broidery on these robes is in tree
stitch or of solid darning in Persian
patterns and colors.. Such q frock is
not expensive as it cleans perfectly
and may be- worn on a number of oc-
casions.
To come back for a moment to the
linen frock A stunning example seen
recently was of a heavy mesh in 4 soft
rose color and made with a Russian
tunic and plated skirt. The blouse
was beIted ut the waist and fashioned
on the order of a jumper with guimpe
and sleeves of finely tucked handker-
chief linen in the same tone. Bands of
embroidery finished the neck and ex-
tended midway up the sleeves and APP
peare;i on the lower edge of the tunic.
The skirt had a deep hem and was
walking length.
Here is hint for the woman who Is
making up her lingerie blouses. Col
ored ones are thought more fetching
and smart than the white model-at
least SO Dame Fashion thinks-but to
my mind there is nothing that is quite
SO satisfactory as the all white lin
gerie blouse. Still. for smartness one
must inclrde Il few colored waists in
ones spring wardrobe. The latest no
ton is to match the sprin~ suit with a
blouse. in wolfe. ninon, marquisette,
grenaGinc or in dotted swiss or silk
null
These blOuses are not made mp in
dressy style, as they are intended for
service with tho coat suit and there
fore little trimming is used The model
that is most popular has side plaits
from shoulder to waist and fastens in
front with scalIop. buttonholed edge.
From under the scaliop extends the
inevitable knife plated frill, which in
some instances is five or six inches
wide This frill is sometimes lace
trimmed. AS for blouse sleeves. thew
are trifie larger than those of last
year, and n faVorite cuff is the three
inch turned back one. In dressy
blouses fancy runs the same delight
full riot in ornamentation

JEWELS TODAY AND YESTERDAY
