A PRACTICAL UNDERGARMENT

Boomers make the most practical
possible under-garments for little girls.
They are much more protective than
petticoats. they allow free movement
and they can be made from material to
match the dress, or from muslin, linen
and the like. The ones illustrated are
perfectly simple, each leg portion be-
ing cut in n piece. They can be at
tached to the smoothly fitting under
body. as in this instance, or they can
be finished with bands and buttoned
into place. A great many mothers like
boomers to match the frocks n when
treated in this way 1t is well hat they
should be made separately, with the
underwaists of white cambria or some
similar material, but when the bloom
ers are made from washable fabrics, it
is just as well to join them and to
make one garment. In either case,
both underbody and boomers are
closed at the back.
For a girl of 5 years of age will be
required rs yards of material q or 36
inches wide for the boomers; " yard
36 inches wide for the under-body.
A May Manton pattern, No. 7041, in
sizes for girls fror| 4 to IL years of
age, will be mailed to any address by
the fashion department of this paper,
on receipt of ten cents.

nantly repudiating that which is hers.

Cucumber Cream.
Dear Miss Doom

Dear MISS DoOn.
1 would be very thankful II you would
kindly let me know how to make cucum-
Der cream for the face. You gave q very
good recipe last year but 1 have lost 1t
through moving. 1 know that 1t contained
six ounces sweet almond oil, four cucum-
bers, white wax and s~permaceti, but l
lave forgotten low much white wax and
how much spermaceti to use, and as the
success of the cream depends on those two
last things, l would be very thankful II
you would kindly favor me with an an
swer. MRS. M. u.
1 am very glad to be able to ac-
commodate you, Mrs. M. d. This is
the recipe to which you refer.
Put six ounces of sweet almond oil
into the inside receptacle of a custard
boiler as though you were about to
make a custard. Set the two Zone in
side the other) over the fire. Have
ready four good-sized cucumbers. Wipe
them carefully, so that they are per-
fectly clean. Cut them into squares,
two or three inches in size. Do moi
remove the peel. When the almond
oil begins to warm put the cucumbers
in it. Set the custard boiler on the
back of the stove and let the water
merely simmer for four or five hours;
strain. To six ounces of the strained
liquid add one ounce of white wax, one
of spermaceti and lanolin melted.
Then take off the fire and beat with
an egg beaten until cold, adding during
the beating process two teaspoonfuls
of tincture of benzoin. This will make
a delicious cucumber cream If proper
ly and carefully prepared.

SRI cannot recall anything in any
letter l have ever written which put
1.-The blame of all the wrongdoing in
the political and business world upon
women, on the ground that men would
never do wrong if their mothers had
brought them up right" as Alice Stone
Blackwell implies. l have said and still
say that men and women are made of
the same clay and that the failure of
men in their political housekeeping is
very much the same thing as the fan
ure of women's domestic housekeeping.
l do not see that mems Interference
would help us out, and / can't believe
to save my life in woman's capacity
for regulating gambling houses or sa-
looms.
One can just as well turn things
round. 1t is true that "a woman may
keep q house spotlessly clean, and a
bad city leave the streets foul and
the schools unsanitary." 1t is also true
that streets may be clean and a woman
may keep her own house foul and I'M
sanitary, and the results will be the
same. What 1 object to in all the suf-
fragist arguments is the assumption
that women viii run things better.
Personally I don't believe 1t. There
are quite as many women who
neglect their homes and children as
there are men who neglect their civic

Linen Gowns Head List

y INEN is so exceedingly fashionable n Paris this summe that 1t is right

- than a onenece dress of bale blue linen, worn with a linen jacket OF a
deeper shade of blue. In som m cases instead of wearing a colored linen coa

SOME HELPFUL HINTS.
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

Varnish and paint stains in coarse
fabrics can be r moved by first rubbing
with turpentine and then washing in
the ordinary way.
Mating hat has frequently been
washed and lost it's bright appearance
may be made fresh looking by painting
1t with q mixture of shellae thinned
with turpentine to the consistency of
varnish. Paint one breadth at a time,
following the weave Of the mating.
This mixture will dry quickly and will
prevent dust from sitting through the
mating.
Clean out closets and trunks with
ventive against moths.
Carpets can be cleaned and the colors
restored by wiping occasionally with a
soft cloth dipped in warm water, to
which has beer added a little turpen-
tine.
A few drops Of turpentine OH a
wooden cloth will clean tan shoes.
Wheel grease, pitch and tar stains
can be easily removed If the spot is
first covered with lard, then soaked
with ~turpentine. Scrape off all the
loose dirt, sponge with clean turpentine
and rub until dry.
A few drops of turpentine added to
the water in which clothes are boiled
will whiten them.
Clean gilt frames with a sponge
moistened with ~turpentine.
An excellent way to clean kid gloves
Is to put them on the hands and wash
we'll in spirits Of turpentine, just as
you would wash the hands. When
clean remove gently, pull into shape
and dry in a brisk wind.
An equal mixture of turpentine and
linseed oil will remove white stains
from furniture caused by water.

BY ROSE M'OUADE.

I'm not married. If I were I couldn't
be a fair umpire between quarreling
folks. And I see enough of matrimony
to make me keep out of 1t, too.
How do I get folks to make up?
Well. I take them both into my office.
/ always look cross at the man. 1 let
the woman talk first. II there's any
thing wrong about her I'm pretty like
ly to find 1t out before she's through.
Then I let the man have his say.
The men don't blame their wives much.
Then / puzzle awhile. Sometimes one
or the other Is 80 hopelessly bad that
1t would be a shame to let him or her
become a parent. But IL I feel hat they
can get along together I tell them just
what Is the matter.
I never scold a woman in her hus-
bands presence. I never tell him she
isn't all right. But I do scold the men.
And then 1 tell them to go home and
try it again, just for a month.
II the man started the trouble by
drinking or gambling I tell him he must
either stop 1t or go to Jail. And l have
the priest, or his boss. or some mis-
sionary watch him. I let him know
that he's being watched.
II the Iault was with the woman l
give the nan a scolding anyhow, right
before her. But afterwards 1 go to her
home and tell her l didn't want 10
blame her in front of her husband.
but that she really is the one to blame.
Then | keep a watch on her,
These "try-agains' work out won
d~erfully well. l get letters cvery day
from folks who tell me that life Is all
rosy again.
Drink is the cause of most of the
trouble. It's the only thing that makes
hopeless cases.
Hundreds of couples come into this
court who never should have been al
lowed to marry.
The day Is coming when undesirable
marriages will be prevented by the
State, for the sake of unborn children.
Every time / get a chance to keep
such a couple apart, When they come
into court after a quarrel, l encourage
them to go on quarreling. 1t will be
better for everybody If they do.
