There's Money inMaking Sandwiches

White Shoes.
White shoes for ladies, misses and

made of white buck side leather white
duck and other fabrics in high-Sradc
welts. turns and McItays, says the
Hide and Leather Magazine. One Of
the greatest problems in tho manu-
facturc of white shoes is to find some
way to get the work through the
factory without being damaged by
stains or dirt Some manufacturers
use a covering of paper, while others
use cloth covering. In tho use of
cloth coverings, by carefully taking
them off they can be used several
times, whereas the paper cover Is used
only once and thrown away. Some
manufacturers are painting tho racks,
tables and benches all white. and do
not use any covering at ALL while
other shops have their workmen use
white canvas gloves and plenty OF
French chalk on them when handling
white work.
Taking into considera ton the fact
that II is only the tops or upDers that
arc soiled in the work, which Ia donc
by 1.-THE workmans hands. the idea of
the canvas gloves well chnlked seems
tosbe n good one. 1t is almost impos-
siblc for the workman to keep his
hands clean running the various ma
chimes. which are bound TO he oily
and dirty. and the operator would
waste much time If ho stopped to
wash his hands each time after uaing
the, machine. If white gloves were
used and the shoes set on the sole
each time instead of being laid on
tn" side or upper IL would seem to
be the most economical way of hanl-
ling white goods through the shop.

1t cannot be denied that there is

fancy the emotions of an epicure If
piece de resistance. And yet why
shouldn't they be? What is the reason
of the slurs we hear on beans, such as
calling cheap restaurants "beaneries,"
and jokes like that? Ii must be just
because they don't cost much. Let
some willy trust magnate create a cor

on them upward a few dozen points
and women would probably be doing
without hats to buy beans for their
husbands dinners And then the coun-

There are many varieties OF beans.
All are nourishing. All legumes, even
In an immature state. as green beans
and peas. have more nutritive value
than other vegetables. and in the dried
forms they approach beef. According
TO a bulletin issued by the United
States department Of agriculture In
1911. the comparative percentage of
protein In lean beef, navy beans and
lentils is, respectively. 2l.3. 22,5 and
25.7.

A FEW RULES.
Worth While Health and Beauty sus-
qestions.


ANY digestive arrangement should be
put right at once. as dyspepsia is the
commonest cause OF poor complexion,
early wrinkles, red noses and pinched
expressions. Careful chewing Of the
food is very important factor with
regard to this. The teeth must be put
into good condition first Of all. Meals
must be regular, well cooked, nourlsh-
ing and easily digested. Plenty of
fresh milk and stewed and fresh fruits
are excellent for the complexion. Tea
and coffee should be given up for
month, or perhaps one cup Of weak
China tea might be allowed daily.
Exercise out OF doors should be regu-
lated and sufficient rest secured as
well, as fatigue handicaps digestion
and impairs the whole vitality.
Worry must be kept at bay and re-
garded as the great foe Of health and
beauty for womankind. The woman
who worries at meals is sowing the
seeds OF dyspepsia and ruined COM
plexion in the near future
Cleanse the skin every night with
warm water vigorously IL there is any
greasiness) and dry briskly with soft
towel Apply a little good cream and
let II lie on all night
Take daily bath or cold sponge.
which is the best hygienic measure 10
keep the whole skin Of the body
healthy and resistant to cold. 1t brings
more blood to the surface and lmparts
glow and vitality which have such an
important bearing on good complex
lon.
Lastly go in for fresh air and deep
breathing.
The result will be not only improve
ment of the complexion out OF all rec
ognition, but the whole appearance is
affected beneficially.
