Evening STAR what Is the best way

weight, but 1 don't know how to do 1t.
SKINNY.
The following suggestions may en-
able you to increase your weight, but
may not add as much as thirty or forty
pounds to IL, us that Is a great deai for
a person who is naturally inclined to
be thin to gain. In the first place, take
as much sleep as possible. Eat plenty
of starchy food, cereals, potatoes, corn
starch, rice, macaroni, etc, Gravy may
be used on your food, Drink plenty of
cocoa or chocolate. but 10 not use much
vinegar or eat things that are acid.
Take a tablespoonful of pure olive oil
three times a day for at least six
weeks. The benefit from this consists
in the regularity with which 1t is taken.

FASHION IN MOTOR GARMENTS. 1

Tailors have studied out their prob
coats, caps and bonnets, as we'll as
trim and trig.
English and Scotch wool mixtures
vie with a new French stuff called
''ratine," which is soft and light as a
baby's blanket, and which comes In
lovely subtle shades much more APP
pealing to most women than the smart
and bold English and Scotch mixtures.
The ratine coats, moreover, are usual
ly built on daintier and less mannish
lines, and are often trimmed with vel
vet n bits Of Oriental embroidery.
Stitchings, buttons, huge pockets and
Municipalities of cut give the more
mannish coats new and distinctive
style.
For very cold weather a charnois or
leather interlining Is sometimes slipped
between the outer wool material and
the inner lining of silk Gay Innings
are used now. Scarlet Is a favorite
color, bright hues rank next, and there
are gold colored satin Innings that are
very rich.
All the new coats are built on a very
large scale, and to this Is due much of
their smart character. Pockets are
huge cuffs are wide and broad, but
tons are as big as silver dollars, and
often enormous buttonholes are simu-
lated with loops of braid. Shoulder
lines are elongated and often continue
all down the sleeve. while the lower
part Of the coat is as narrow and
straight as possible, conforming with
the narrow lines of skirts at present.
The wood brown tones. dashed with
red are much more popular than the
gray tints. Some of the new home
spuns and tweeds in warm brown
standings and with bright scarlet lin
ings are popular and there are wood
brown and tobacco brown plain blanket

Cleaning White Lace.

My Dear MISS Doom.
VIII you kindly tell me how TO clean
a white lace yoke and sleeves without
removing them from the dress7 Thank
ing you greatly for past ~favors, l re.
main, A CONSTANT READER.
Make a paste Of corn starch and
spread over the solled parts OF the lace,
allowing 1t to remain for several hours.
Then brush and shake out. This proc
ess can be repeated more than once
until the lace is clean. You 40 not
state whether there is a lining n
der the lace or not. The most salts
factory way to clean the yoke and
sleeves will be to remove them from
the dress and wash them with CASTLE
soap and warm water. Press while the
lace Is damp.

An acceptable gift hat one woman
may make TO another is a single ar
tificial flower, which Is especially suita-
BILE for evening wear.
One must be sure to choose something
that will go with the gowns the friend
has, and when in doubt a gardenia is
an admirable choice.
This can be worn In the evening to
the theatre or @ more elaborate social
occasion, and on the street in the lapel
of ones coat.
There are also wonderful large fiow-
ers in Roman gold velvet against O
spray of green leaves. which can be
worn with almost any gown, but
especially with a black one.
The scarlet poinsettia Is another good
choice, and the lunches of California
violets made of satin ribbon and per-
fumed with violet are so natural and
artistic hat n woman would be en-
chanted to wear them.

CHAPTER TX.



II REITMANN watched them as lone
II as he could. There was no jeal-
ousy in his heart, but there vas
bitterness, discomfort, a savage self
pillorying. He was genuinely sorry
that this young woman vas so pretty;
still, had she the graces of Calypso, he
must have come. She would distract
him. and he desired at that time dis
traction least of all diversions. Con-
centration and slngleness of purpose
uron these two attributes practically
hung his life. How strangely fate had
stepped with him. What If there had not
been that advertisement for a private
secretary? How then should he have
gained a footing in this house2 Well,
here he was, and speculation was of no
value, save in d congratulatory sense.
The ny In the amber was the
presence of the young Americans;
Fitzgerald, shrewd and clever, might
stumble upon something. Well, till
against that time!
His room was pleasant, a corner
which gave two excellent views, n
of the sea and the other of the orchard.
There was no cluttering Of furniture;
II was simple, substantial, decently
old. On the plain walls were some
choice paintings. A landscape by Con-
stable, a water color by Fortuny, and
a rough sketch by Detaille; and the
inevitable marines. such as one might
expect in the house OF a fighting sailor.
He examined these closely, and was
rather pleased to find them valuable
old prints. And, better TO his mind
than all these, was the deft, mysterious
touch or suggestion of a woman's
hand. He saw it in the pillows on the
lounge. in the curtains dropping from
the windows. in the counterpart on the
old four-poster.

VALUE OF LAUGHTER.

Laughter is a foe to pain and disease
and a sure cure for the "blues," melan-
cholia and worry. Laughter is conta-
gious. Be cheerful and you make
everybody around you happy. harmon
ious and healthful. Use laughter as a
table sauce; 1t sets the organs to dane
ing, and thus stimulates the digestive
processes. Laughter keeps the heart
and face young, and enhances physical
beauty. Laughter is natures device for
exercising the internal organs and CIV
ing us pleasure at the same time. It
sends the lbood bounding through the
body, increases the respiration and
gives warmth n glow to the whole
system. Perfect health, which mDy be
destroyed by a piece of bad news, by
grief or anxiety. is often restored by a
good hearty laugh.
