Beauty In
The Home

TT Is a mere commonplace to say that
1t is the duty of every woman to
make herself at all times as attractive
as she can.
This does not mean that she must
make the best OF herself on occasions,
but every day as well. The woman
who values the opinion and affection
of her family and intirnates will re-
member that even IL beauty is but
skin deep" (rather an old fashioned
idea) the skin is quite an important
part of her anatomy.
She will then reflect that II is I'M
kindness to her nearest and dearest to
let them continually see her at her
worst Especially where q man is con-
cerned, she will know that. perhaps
unconsciously. 1t is bound to affect
his treatment OF wife or sister If the
conviction is continually forced upon
him that she is not charming or
dainty as the other girls and women
he meets.
Remember. dear girls II you are feel
ing sore about your brothers neglect,
does he ever see you at your best as he
does other girls?
Does he see you with your hair dress
ed prettily and neatly every day or just
twisted up anyhow for breakfast and
rough and untidy for dinner. as it was
when you threw off your hat?
Does he see you in a dainty, spotless
blouse in the morning. or wearing out
some old rag. that makes you look
your worst?
1t may seem an unkind thing to tell
you, but these sins of omission and
commission do make a great deal of
difference in the estimation in which
the average man holds his women folk
II you think IL does not matter to
look we'll in your brothers eyes you
are making a great mistake. Later on
you will make a greater mistake as re-
CARDS your husband, with more seri-
Gus consequences.
You blame certain member of your
family for that expression OF distaste
when you allow him to see you looking
perfect fright" that term of oppro-
brium being, in your case, quite I'M
necessary. But think. is it not fail
ure of affection. a lapse of loving
thought. on your own part?
II you let your sister, brother, moth
er and husband know that you do not
consider them worth the trouble of
dressing up" for. can YOU wonder If
they-unconsciously again-resent 1t?
Have you quite much regard for
your dearest friend when she betrays
some lamentable carelessness in dress
holes in her stockings and unlSempt
hair? You may recover in an instant
but certainly your friendship suffers g
severe shock.
Would you be quite as willing to &C
out walking with your brother were he
careless1y shaved and wearing a not
quite clean collar? Perish the thought.
But having duly shuddered at the
impossible idea be very careful in the
future not to sin correspondingly.

PENCIL LEASHING

WE have grown used to having pad
for the telephone to which a pen
Gil is fastened by flexible chain. Now
appears an invention that will appeal
to the distracted hostess-a bridge
score with pencil leashed to it
This consists of leather pad with
corners like those used on a blotter,
under which the bridge tablet is easily
slipped for frequent removal At the
top of the pad is a brass or nickel
standard, with chain attachment for
the pencil 1t is SO flexible that the
pencil can be used at any angle, yet
springs into place when not needed.
Any one who knows the trick pencils
have of getting lost at critical mo-
ments will appreciate this convenience
Another useful novelty for hostess
who entertains much at cards is a
small silver pencil 'sharpener. This.
having a ring at one end, can be at
'tached to the pencil standard on the
pad, to save scurrying for a knife or
new pencil when points break or be-
come blunted.

What Is New
I'm Tub FrockS

WHAT is new in tub frocks this sea-
son? Nothing, madame-that is,
nothing new in line. but there are many
novel trimming touches on the simpler
sorts Of wash frocks. The skirts have
a tribe more fullness. but the skirt of
the sheer summer frock always Is fulIc-
than winter skirt Of cloth or silk On
some of the new tub models there ap-
pears slightly godet seam. an invert-
ed plat or a scant fiounce joined to a
severely straight and plain upper skirt
of linen or some other Arm washing
fabric
Long lines Of trimming are much in
evidence on linen, Bingham and sheer
cotton frocks. and buttons are set down
the middle front or side of the skirt.
and there are innumerable panel ar
rangements that add to the attraction
of morning gown.
| The waist line on most OF the new
models is a natural one. but there are
many charming frocks with slightly
raised waists. The former line is newer.
| Sleeves are usually short, with some
| kind of turned back cuff. although an
occasional tub gown shows long
!. sleeve and wrist band. Round neck or
square neck finished Just below the
throat base or a slight v shaped cut
| with collar or fichu finish is customary.
Many of the little tub froclks are made
up devoid of trimming other than the
transverse use of the striped material
or the hair line checked fabrics COM
bined with sheer white hemstitched
lawn.
Seams put together with beading add
very much to the daintiness Of these
>1Irc NJ v,fx> Of f,r1l Ia
though difficult to launder, are most ef-
fectiye upon colored wash materials.
The shoulder yoke with trimming ex-
tending down the center of the sleeve
is again a favorite waist arrangement
and lines of tiny white pearl buttons
put on with colored thread are one OF
the newest touches seen on tub frocks.

in delicate, natural colors. A flight of
yellow and brown butterflies on
straw colored or pongee parasol would
be most artistic.
Perhaps the most costly parasols of
the season are trimmed with old fash
Toned shirred puffings. AS all this work
must be done by hand you can easily
see how the expense of such sun
shade mounts up. One of the cuts dis
plays a parasol trimmed with this re-
vived puffed trimming. The net which
forms the border is shirred in innu-
merable rows and then arranged in a
star design on the parasol and drawn
down to form the plated border.
But these elaborate lace trimmed
sunshades are only for ceremonious
use. With little morning frocks of linen
or mohair milady carries a plain coach
| ing parasol of taffeta, which perhaps
disports a border in a contrasting effect
as finish CATHERINE TALBOT.

A Health Hint

FAT three simple meals day and
masticate each bite of food thor
oughly. Give up snacks between meals
and late suppers. Seventy per cent Of
the I'll health people suffer from is due
to neglect of this hygienic principle.
Take exercise every day equivalent
to three or four miles walking, what
ever the weather may be like. When
outdoor exercise cannot for some good
reason be obtained practice physical
exercises twice a day.
Breathe fresh air day and night. No
one can keep well who sleeps with
closed windows, lives in stuffy rooms
and goes in fear of drafts.
If you have got into the habit of ir-
regular hours of sleep try the 10: 80
bedtime plan as a routine measure. 1t
cannot be invariably followed perhaps,
but one late night could be made up
for by an earlier bedtime the evening
after. People who work hard and live
strenuously need especially to make a
good health resolution regarding their
Sleep Even though you feel no Ill eff
fects for the time being from curtail-
ing your sleep two or three hours a
night you will have to pay in the end.
The human organism can do without
sleep for time, but it is like a man
drawing on his capital Nervous en-
ergy has its limits like everything else
Practice moderation in all things
Regulate your amusements after a ra-
tional plan and stick to any resolu-
lions you make.
The last health resolution is psychical

fand happier. whatever your prospects
may be. Happiness is as much a mat
ter of habit as Of temperament, and il
has very little to do with material sue

tons enumerated you will be happier
because you will be healthier. Make
up your mind to be cheerful. to look or

A Sample Party

THIS is certainly a most amusing
affair and will repay hostess for
the trouble of arranging for it. But
then to be a successful hostess the la
Dor that precedes an event should new
er enter into the calculations. There
must be an equal number of men and
women-eight couples make a party
easily provided for.
In the invitations to the girls the
hostess requests sample of the gown
which they will wear, and to the men
the missives request a sample of the
necktie, these to be sent in advance to
the hostess. The samples are neatly
mounted on Sample" cards and the
neckties passed to the girls. the dress
materials to the men. In this way
partners are found for the progressive
conversation which will be passed, and
the men are to write descriptions OF
the gown the samples of which fell to
their lot, and the girls are to write
about the ties, material. style. etc. Five
minutes viii be given to these descrip-
tions, and then the papers will be read
aloud. The prizes are to be sample
packages of any product the hostess
may select.
The refreshments are to be novel, in
asmuch as the hostess will have the tea
and coffee made by Demonstration"
Gone of the party who has been pre-
viously asked to do IT., and the other
things are to be served IN boxes mark

boxes wiz be spread upon the table.
which is to be supplied with all the
requisites In the way of dishes.
While at the table the room Is to be
suddenly darkened and little saucers
containing a mixture OF chopped nuts,
candies and crackers are TO be passed
and eaten. When the lights are turned
on each one is to write down what he
has had, the one nearest correct being
given Sample" cake of chocolate.

USES OF OLD BUTTONS

A DELIGHTFUL old set of paste
buttons. wheel pattern. have been
used by their owner as a neckIet, hung
from slender line of paste. also old,
but this idea need be by no means con-
fined to antique diamond work. II can
be used for earrings. and, indeed. it is
something out of the common to see a
pair of large earrings hung thus to-
gether with a space of a couple of
inches between them, we are so used to
single pendants or groups of three.
The old buttons that were formed of a
single colored paste stone. similar to
a set belonging to Prince Charles Ed
ward, were enhanced in effect by be-
ing placed, each in the center of a rose
of silver gauze, small and well made, OF
the dattish Tudor order.

4 VERY USEFUL
EMBROIDERY STITCH

VENETIAN ladder work is the new
embroidery stitch that is quite in
valuable on linen and dresses and un-
derwear. 1t is nothing but the but
tonhole stitch, differently applied TO
any soft satins and voiles for joining
seams. to produce an openwork effect,
the two rows of buttonholing joined by
worked bars, cutting away the material
beneath. 1t is often used as a. frame to
a monogram. and it is frequently COM
bined with madeira work, and for linen
dinner centers can be employed with
great effect Small pieces of material
for Jokes can be united in a most eff
fective way with this ladder work, as
well as for other purposes, and sleeves
are often joined with it.

A NEW MATERIAL

EPONGE is the material catchword
of the moment In its best and
most superfine wooden qualities this
fabric is wholly irresistible and fulfills,
moreover. it's most descriptive name, of
course, in a very refined, tempered
fashion.
But already the term is being more
or less loosely applied. and there is no
sort of resemblance between this fine
quality of wooden eponge and the cot
ton varieties. Frankly, the latter are
not particularly attractive, though a
good deal is already being made of
them for trimming purposes.

Attractions of the Spring and Summer SunshadesI

models are among the Illustrations
One of white taffeta is OVERLAND with
embroidered cream net. A ruffie of

Grafton. The second sunshade is of hand
embroidered linen. Apropos of linen
sunshades, there Is very new model
which any girl clever with her needle
may copy. In each panel of the parasol
is worked flight of butterflies in white
mercerized cotton. These are embroid-
cred in a raised satin stitch for the
bodies of the insect, and a narrow
thread outlines the wings. The mark
ings are simulated by lines of eyelets
such as are used in madeira work. 1t
would probably be more effective to
have the whole butterfly done in vene-
tian ladder work.

TO AVOID sCORCHING

MANY housekeepers do not know that
there is a simple way to prevent
potatoes from burning and sticking to
the bottom of the pot. An inverted
pie pan placed in the bottom of the pot
avoids scorching potatoes. The water
and empty space betneath the pan save
the potatoes. This also makes the
work of cleaning the pot easier, as no
adhering parts of potatoes are left to
be secured out
