Value Of Gumwater \
Little Understood

Few amateur laundresses knows the
value Of gumwater. For stihening
laces. silks, flannel blouses, and making
them appear almost new, it is excellent,
and being finer in quality than starch,
it does not produce g. harsh Look on
fine laces and silks.
The correct proportion to use Is a
tablespoonful Of gumwater, to- one

water, put one ounce Of the best broken
up gum arabic into jug; pour over it
a cupful of boiling water. and leave in
a warm place, stirring often with
wooden stick until the gum rnelts.
Make small quantities at a time.

Six Ways For Using
Scissors In Kitchen

The following are six ways in which
scissors may be used as an aid TO the
cook:
1. For cutting up the peel for MARINA
lade. This Is made easy II the scissors
are employed. as the cook can remain
seated during the cutting operations.
2. In cutting UP fruit for mincemeat
scissors are better than a knife.
g. Steak for pies and buildings may be
cut with scissors II your knives are
blunt
4. Scissors are excellent for cutting
the rind Of bacon.
5. Also for cutting fancy shapes from
pastry.
6. Roots and herbs, such as parsley
and mint, may be cut with scissors in
stead of being chopped.

The corduroy velvet Is extremely pop
ular this season and makes up into as
rich and pretty a dress as d woman
could wear. l saw a beautiful line of
corduroy velvet this morning in a Sew

in mems working clothes, and the nap
was warranted not 10 crush as some
corduroy Velvets invariably do. There
were some rich shades of bottle green,
navy blue, plum color, black, and wine
and a one-piece dress made up Of 1t
would be very rich and handsome.
The cloth was twenty-seven inches
wide and only SO cents yard. A pat
tern of six yards would make a one
piece dress, and very little trimming is
required.
In the same store visited the mil
nnery department and saw some very
smart hats. The velour hoods which
are so much worn now were on sale
here for IS up TO $12. They came in
all the new shades, and were exceed
ingly chic and good looking. This store
was making speciality of 'stick-ups'
that add to the nattiness of these hats.
Ornaments, wings. worsted effects, fur,
flowers, and cockades Of trdescribable
smartness and variety are marked from

These chilly fall days bring the

very attractive ones in a Seventh street

very moderate price Of s.. 60. These gar

blue, plain white, and gray, with dark
blue borders around the collars and
cuffs. They were warranted all wool.
In the same store saw little frocks
fbr children between the ages Of two
and six wears. There were dresses of
all colors in solid colors and checks,
made out of a very good quality of
gingham- They were made up in at
tractive styles. and piped with a con-
tracing color Of the material.
Children's aviation hoods in gray, red,
blue. and white, with colored borders,
