Financially Embarrassed
Naturally Selfish.

Dear Miss Poynter:
/ am a girl 20 years of age and ave
been going with a young man a few
years older for the last three or -four
months. The trouble is he never asks
me to go to any places of amusement.
My mother and father like him very
much, and so do 1. My friends talk
about him and say l am a fool to go
with him. Kindly advise me what to
do. whether l should give him up or
still go with him. Thanking you in
advance l remain,
CONSTANT READER.
In the first place, don't let anything
people may say influence you in such
matters. One of the great privileges
of being an American girl is that up
to a certain extent you are at liberty
to choose your own friends. You will
find out after a while that, from one
motive or another, the general policy
of ac%quaintances is to criticise ones
selection of associates. The opinion of
your father, mother or of someone who
is really interested in your happiness
is the only one that should lave any
weight with you.
Now. for this particular case. Did
you ever happen to think that this
young man may have financial obliga-
lions such as helping in the support of
his family? If he is considerate and
thoughtful of you the chances are that

meaning very few seams to sew up.

are extended into the sleeves and which
mean freedom and relief from strain.
In this case it is made with a little
square yoke and worn with a lace col
lar, but the collar does not make Q

simple strips of lace attached beneath
the trimming. The skirt is four-gore1,

be made either with a high or natural
waist line. If the natural waist line
Is more becoming the skirt could be
finished with a belt and worn either
with a girdle or sash of ribbon or of
silk. Such sashes, simply finished with
a once-over knot at the left side, are
extremely fashionable, and many OF
them are edged with fringe. With such
an addition the gown would become
distinctly more elaborate in effect.

To Wash Linen Dress.
Daar Misc Dnnn.

Dear Miss Doom:
1 have a natural color linen dress
trimmed with red. and would ask II you
could suggest some method Of washing
same so that the linen will not lose its
color as it usually does. Also let me know
II there is anything I can do to keep the
linen from losing its gloss, and oblige,
IGNORANT.
Soak the dress in cold water, to
which a generous amount of salt has
been added, or let 1t stand for an hour
in cold water, to which one ounce OF
sugar of Leaf has been added. (Keep
the sugar of lead away from the chill
dren.) Even after these precautions
have been taken to set the color you
must be very careful when washing
the dress, as red is apt to be very un-
stable.
Purchase five cents worth of gum
arabic, add one ~teaspoonful to a quart
of water, apply lightly with a wet
cloth to the wrong side of the dress
and press dry. This will give a new
to the linen.

pose the ablest Swiss and Dutch experts.
The result is the finest milk produced in Amer

charge for germ-iaden milk from mongrei cows.

shower their financial attentions upon
their own dear selves and think that
a girl is mighty lucky to be honored
with their company once or twice a

Here is a fine way to mystify your

Firstly, distribute pieces of paper and
envelopes amongst the people present,
asking them to write n sentence they
like on their paper and seal it in the
envelope. Your confederate writes a
sentence you have both agreed on on
his paper.
You then have the envelopes handed
to you, and saying you will read the
sentences before opening the envelopes,
you hold the first envelope against your
forehead, pretend to hesitate. then an
nounce your confederate's sentence. 81

you open the envelope apparently to

keep. Is there any way to prevent
them from rotting? e, c. s.

Exceedingly Rich

This milk when evaporated is as thick as thick
cream. 1t Is so rich that you add one part water
for coffee, for cereals or ice cream. 1t is 2s per
cent solids, 8 per cent butter fat.
When you use it in cooking IL gives a richness
and flavor unknown from milkman's milk. The
reason is this:
Milkrnan's milk always separates. The butter
fat rises and the solids fall. The milk which
comes to your cooking is rarely more than a
half-milk.
Van Camps is whole milk. II has all the but
ter fat, all the solids belonging to the richest milk.
