The habit of wearing old leftover
clothes when doing housework leads, In
too many instances. to personal untidi-
ness and a lack of cleanliness. This does
not mean that a housekeeper should
never use odd skirts or waists which are
no longer suitable for dress occasions,
but as a rule, these CASTOR things are
unsuitable.
The woman who does her own work
should have not only good kitchen tools
but proper clothing, shoes which do not
hurt her feet, and which are not SO run

YOU CANNOT HAVE
TOO MANY PILLOWS

American girls have come to the con-
clusion that they cannot have too many
lingerie pillows. Time was when the girl
who had one found 1t sufficient. but now
she wants half a dozen. They are In all
sizes and In all designs. Some are heart
shaped. others oblong, many square, and
some Of the new ones are quite circular.
All Of these are fat. and the cases are
made separately. with buttons and but
ton holes about an inch from the edge
and the underside. The lining. or rather
the covering Of the pillow itself, is in
ones favorite color. Pink. blue, and
shades Of lavender are usually chosen.
The girl who travels this summer must
take one with her at the least, for she
wants to make sure that she will be
comfortable In whatever bed she sleeps
