A SIMPLE SUMMER FROCK
BY MAY MANTON


Girls who are preparing for the
summer outing will be sure to well
come this pretty frock. 1t Is made
with the kimono sleeves that are al
ways graceful and becoming and ex-
tremely smart and with the four
gored skirt that Is always desirable
for washable materials. If there Is a
lawn, Bingham or batiste to be made
for morning wear no better model
could be asked. There is no trouble
some fitting, so the girl al make 1t
herself. The closing is made at the
left of the front SO the dress Is easy
to adjust. All the simple summer
fabrics will be pretty for such use
but in this case a striped batiste Is
trimmed with the same material cut
on the bias. If the short, loose sleeves
are liked they can be finished in this
way, but the three-quarter length is
much worn and the bands give a
touch of smartness. Bits of color are
being used upon black and white
striped materials, and black and white
striped wolfe piped with green or
oerise would be exceedingly smart.
tor the lo-yedr Sizo lhe uiSso was

with an additional 1 yard q inches

The May Manton pattern of the
dress 1929 is cut in sizes for misses
IA. 16 and Is years of age. 1t will be
mailed to any address by the fashion
department of this paper on recelpt
of ten cents.

THE WHITE COLLAR

foundation for these, and they are
usually lace trimmed, embroidered in
elaborate or simple designs.
Some have the wide proportions of
a cape; others are shallow or pointed.
The sailor collar appears In many
phases. All of them are wide cross
the shoulders.
Revers, cuffs and collars are fash
toned of the popular material called
turkish toweling.
One dainty collar of sheerest linen
extends nearly to the waist line In a
sharp point; another is spade-shaped,
while another design Is square, with
diagonal orners.
In some cases they resemble little
nantes falling in folds from the
throat and arranged in front like a
fichu.
More elaborate collars are made en-
tirely Of Irish crochet. Venetian point,
cluny or chantilly laces.
Bands of insertion and tucking are
used for a dainty collar to trim
frocks Of colored linen.
Tiny pleatings of net or sheerest
null are used to border a great many
collars.
The fastidious woman is thoroughly
pleased with the all-white collar of
dainty weblike laces and sheer ma
terials.
A number of the most attractive
designs may easily be duplicated at
home.

Tasty Ways Of Serving Clans

onion and two stalks of celery very
fine: place the pan over a brisk fire;
season with a pinch of salt, a tea
spoonful of butter and two sprigs OF
parsley cut fine. Let all cook until
the potatoes are nearly done-about
eighteen minutes. Cut a slice OF
fresh pork one-third of an inch thick
into pieces one-third of an n c
square. fry in a pan on a hot stove
for four minutes. Add to the mix
ture also three quarters of a tea
spoonful of dry thyme and a half

move the dirt, but not to injure the
nail, wind a piece of absorbent cotton
around the tip of an orange stick and
gently clean zach nail, and then, with
the orange stick push back the cuti-
Gle. This will become softened by the
water so that stray pieces can be re-
moved without the aid of scissors.
Next rub cold cream all i've the
nails. especially into the cuticle, and
go over the nails a second time with
the orange stick. This, followed by a
rubbing with the palm of the hand,
will prepare the nails for the day.
Always have an orange stick
nearby, so that you can push back
the cuticle every time you put your
hands in water. Before going to bed
rub a generous supply of cold cream
into the nails, especially at the cuti-
Gle, or, If they peed nourishing, vase
line. This will act pon h nails
during the night and will render them
ready for the morning treatment.
And now comes the weekly treat
ment. Soak the hands for Ave or ten
minutes in warm water In which q
little soar has been dissolved and TO
which a few drops of benzoin have
been added. After the soaking push
down the cuticle with an orange stick,
| covered with cotton If the cuticle is
| tender, and then treat the nails n
| cuticle with cold cream. While you
are waiting for the cream to become
thoroughly absorbed you may file the
nails, endeavoring to round them.
| (Never cut the nails, as 1t Will
| thicken them. The same holds true
of the cuticle, except, of course, In
| the case of stray pieces which cannot
be removed with the orange STICK
| and which are apt to become sore.)
| Next go over the nails and cuticle
again with the orange stick. II the
nails or the flesh underneath the
nails seem stained dip the orange
stick. covered with absorbent cotton,
into some hydrogen peroxide and
clean the nails. This will generally
remove spots and will tend TO
whiten the nails. Next wash the
hands and the nails with a soft
to remove the cream and after drylns
| them thoroughly polish the nall WITH
| some one of the powders for that
taking care to select one
that is smooth, so that 1t Will not
| scratch the nail. I think that you
will find the palm of the hand a more
satisfactory polisher than a buffer.
However. this is a matter of personal
| preference.
The main thing is to remember
| hat a thorough treatment once a
week will not keep the nails looking
| at their best unless 1t Is complneo
| with attention daily.

Take the case of the neuresthenic

him, for drugs can't get to the root
of mental trouble. Careful living
dieting, exercise-these can act only
as a palliative. The nervous trouble
once established, holds the fort,
for it is daily reinforced by the re-

caused 1t In the first place-work,

Such a man must begin all over

Surprise for Club Boys
Dear Miss Margery Doom:

Dear Miss Margery Doom:
Will you kindly suggest some appro-
pirate way in which the girls of a club
can surprise the boys of the same club
We would like something not too ex-
p~ensiye. You will thus oblige a
CONSTANT READER.
l would suggest that on the regular
meeting night of the club you and
the other girls provide a surprise
spread If each girl furnishes a
part of the refreshments the expense
will not be heavy for anyone. 1t need
not be elaborate, but should be dainty.
Have sandwiches, salad, olives, home
made candy, sailed nuts, punch, cof-
fee and Ice 1t may be that
some of your members are good cooks
and will provide homemade cake.
You will find that the boys will enjoy
1t immensely.
If this plan does not meet with
your approval. you might give a pic
mic some Saturday afternoon when
the boys have a half holiday. Have
the party start from the home Of
one of the girls and make your desti-
nation some place within walking
distance. After a good, brisk walk
every member of the company will
be ready to enjoy the dainty lunch,
which will, of course, be provided
entirely by the girls.

Wishes to Increase Her Weight
Dear Miss Doom

Dear MISS doom.
1 would like to be fat. Can you tell
me how? ] am just 16 years of age,
and people say that II l were a little
stouter l would make a very nice ap-
pearance. How can I fix my hnger-nails
upf Kindly publish Just the answer to
these questions, and oblige
MISS SLIM.
I Some are born fat, some achieve
fat, others have fat thrust upon them,
and still others are doomed never to
reach hat state. However, most peo-
pie can by proper food and proper
habits of living add a few pounds to
their weight
Eat, sleep and exercise, not strenu-
ously, but enough to turn the added
pounds into good firm muscle instead
of letting them remain 1abby flesh.
Drink a quart of milk every day and
in each glass beat a raw egg. Be-
fore meals take a tablespoon of pure
olive oil. Eat plenty of beef. as raw
as possible; rich soups, fresh veg
! etables and fruit. Between meals. not
with them, drink plenty Of cold water.
Sleep al least eight hours a day
and If possible take a nap every aft
ernoon. Remember to have plenty of
fresh air in your bedroom and to live
in the open as much as possible.
Above all things avoid worry.
There is nothing that takes off the
flesh so rapidly ass do troubled
thoughts. AS you grow older the nat
ural tendency will be. alas, to grow
stouter, sc keep up hope. In most
! cases it Is easier to put it on than
to take 1t off.
Besides a thorough weekly treat
ment the nails require attention every
time the hands are put in water.
After washing the hands and clean
