though one may approve the plan.
CARE OF THE DRESS SHIELD
Use of Pins Something to Be Avoided
Proper Way to Wash the
Articles.

Shields for sleeves of thin summer
gowns should be edged with a mar
row v~alenciennes lace, or, still better,
covered with white lawn edged with
lace, or you may use shields with the
outside faced with silk. AS the shields
will show plainly through a thin gown.
it is well to give attention to the selec-
ton, choosing those of good quality
and light weight.
Instead of sewing or pinning shields
in a waist, sew a narrow piece Of
tape or baby ribbon at each end Of
the shield, and sew similar pieces at
the proper distance apart in the arm
holes of all your waists. The shields
are quickly tied in place, they are cas-
lily changed in wash waists, and there
are no pins to rust or prick.
To wash shields, first place them in
cold water to soak. Precipitation AN
not be removed If they are first wash
ed in warm water. Scrub them light
press under a cloth.
A dress shield may be cut in half
and each half used as the lining for
the baby's bib. Make a removable
cover of linen or lawn edged with
lace or embroidered.

Exhibition Of Real Faith.

William Spills little girl, who had
been playing at making mud pies
aided by a tiny sprinkling can for a
reservoir, ran to her father as he
alighted from a car, bearing a pack
age of d~ry-cleaned wearing apparel
Pointing to her muddy little boots
Father Spill admonished his tiny
daughter, impressing her with the
value of a neat appearance.
That night the young lady offered
her usual prayer with great earnest
ness. "And don't forget, dear Lord"
she prayed ~fervently, ito dry-clean our
street, and my shoes, for Jesus sake,
amen!"-Cleveland Leader.

prominence of Side Erill,

Opinion seems to be unanimous as
to the prominence of the side frill or
jabot, says the Dry Goods Economist.
That is the accessory on which French
women have concentrated attention.
Report has it that almost every well
dressed woman at the French capital
wears a frill jabot in some form. Not
only are they seen on the coats of
taffeta or satin and wool serge or silk
serge suits, but on fancy lingerie
blouses and dresses as well. 1t is not
often that a piece of neckwear adapts
itself to almost every style of toilette
that is fashionable. This fact is the
secret of the present popularity of the
side frill in Europe, and there is no
doubt that the vogue will be repeated
on this side.

Pink Ribbon In LINGERIE.

With the incoming of thin summer
clothes one sees a good deal of the
now established French Idea of using
pink ribbon in ones lingerie instead
of any other color. The claim is that
it brings out the color of the skin, and
is more artistic than blue or lavender.
If one wants to try its merits 1t
would be wise to run chemises and
corset covers with a quarter inch pink
ribbon a little deeper in tone than
what is known as flesh color. An
elaborate display of ribbon is not in
good taste. 1t is possible that an
eighth of an inch would be the best
width to use.

d Cats soiourn,

Felix Smith of Easton, Pa. bought
a cat the other day. He paid IS for
her. Why did Felix pay five bucks
for the cat? Answer-Because she
was guaranteed to be a good ratter.
Did Felix have rats? We should say
he did-the house was full of EN-!
And the cat cleaned EN- out! No;
that's the curious part Of 1t. After the
cat had been on the job a week the
rats were as plentiful as ever. Felix
couldn't understand 1t until n eve
ming he concealed himself in the base
ment to watch the cat. About 9 p. m,
as the cat sat with her eye on a rat
hole, Felix says that rat after rat came
out of the hole, walked up to the old
cat, kissed her goodnight and then
returned to the hole. After that Felix
kicked the cat out of the house.-Bos-

Care of the Rahy,s Feet.

Too much care cannot be given the
baby's feet. The little child's foot is
naturally pretty, but it is SO soft and
plant that it is easily nodded and an
i'll fitting, badly made shoe will only
too quickly deform 1t and twist 1t out
of shape. The shoes, regardless of
whether they are buttoned or laced,
must not be too tightly fastened or
the circulation of the blood will be i'm
peded. 1t Is a good plan in summer
to allow the baby to go barefoot as
much of the time as possible about
the home. This allows the f,ot TO
grow naturally.
