red fully into the shoulder. Take sur

gowns and blouses. and you will find
sleeves that are mere puffs. as they
were last summer; sleeves that cover
the elbow; sleeves Of the three quarter
length: sleeves that reach exactly to
tn wrist. and sleeves that droop
far over the hand with all-concealing
ruffles.
So much for length. As for size the
sleeves are certainly abandoning In all
but the tailored effects the very skim
py, clinging style that has been In
vogue. Little puffs and frills appear.

elbow and bell-like outer portion.

sleeves that make visible shtrring OF

and they are shown side by side with
the mousQuetaire sleeve, shirred and
pulled from ahoulder to wrist and yet
remaining narrow.

Comforts for InvaIids.
By Elizabeth Lee.

Quite often the exertion Of Just put
ting on q bed Jacket is exhausting to an
invalid, but much may be spared II the
negI1ge Is made to close In the back.
The front can be as pretty as one pleases
with lace and ribbons falling in cas-
cades, because there will be no closing to
interfere with the proper setting OF the
trimming.
To try the front hooking ones self. or
even to have it done. is firing, while the
back closing, consisting Of two or three
buttons and buttonholes, will take less
than q minute to adjust When pretty
pillow Is propped up at the back the IN
valid will look very attractive. especially
IL she dons q dainty cap to match her
jacket-and this with practically no ex-
ertion whatever.
Among other comforts for shut-ins are
the little hand warmers. These are small
at the ends after tiny vial filled with
warm water has been slipped In. When
suffering only slightly from cold hands
the wrtstlets Of rabbit yarn knitted will
be found very comfortable.
There are quite q variety OF bed socks
upon the market to choose from, but
among the best Is the model following
the lines Of mans sock; that is, knit
ted tightly for some inches at the top.
There is then less danger OF the sock
slipping on in bed.
Shetland wells, by reason of their light
weight and warmth. can be used in a
number Of ways by an invalid. A couple
sewn together will make very dainty

low with outer covering OF the Shetland
will prove very grateful.
BY way of an extra spread over the
bed q sheet Of lambs wool incased in
silk or thin cotton will be very good in
deed when the eiderdown is felt to be
too warm. Neck pillows are quite as
essential to the comfort Of the invalid
as the larger sizes, and any scraps that
are pretty and sheer can be used for

small diamond shapes. These can he

Another comfort apt to be appreciated
by the invalid 10 q cover for keeping

ton. II 10 covered outside with q piece
Of cfetonne or brocade and inside with q

add to the beauty OF the cover in either
case.
