There is nothing new about
the idea of using Sage for re-

Our grandmothers kept their
hair dark. glossy and abundant
by the use of simple Sage
Tea" Whenever their hair fell
out or took on a dull. faded or
streaked appearance, they made
a brew of Sage leaves. and ap-
piled it to their hair with won
derfully beneficial effect.
Nowadays we don't have to
resort to the old-time tiresome
method OF gathering the herbs
and making the tea. This is
done by skillful chemists better
than we could do it ourselves;
and all we have to do is to call
for the ready-made product.

Scarf Pins and Boots.
For the afternoon ascot, pins with a

ferred to clusters OF small pearls. Single
pearls. white or black, fetch q stin

watch chain is worn straight across
from upper pocket to upper pocket, so

Patent leather boots, Of course, should
not attend any but the most formal
dress. Worn to business with sack
suits, they are as out Of place az q silk

creditable. to mix the accessories Of for
NAL dress with those OF informal dress,
whereas they should be kept scrupu-
lousy apart.
Gloves and Knitted Cravats.
Gloves embroidered with black silk
backs are a caprice Of the mode, not
a fixed fashion. While they lend an or
nate touch, they also detract from the
severely mannish air that all walking
gloves should have.
An innovation in knitted scarfs from
one Of the gala" shops is a four-in-

PROPER CARE OF OLD FRIEND
Sewing Machine All Too Frequently
Misused by Those Who Give
1t Little Thought.

Don't, every time the machine slips
stitch or breaks the cotton, send it to
be repaired and incur a bill. Instead,
change the needle. Invariably it is in
fault, wrongly set. blunt pointed, or
too fine or too coarse for the cotton.
Don't add more oil when the ma
chine runs stiffly. Instead, turn the
machine back and leave the under
meath parts exposed to the fire for a
little while, then wipe with buster.
Don't oil the machine with parafin.
1t spoils the bearings. Instead before
putting the machine away, oil with
best machine oil, and before using
again wipe carefully with paraffin
rag.
Don't grudge few cents for book
of instructions and time necessary to
master the same. Both time and
money will be we'll spent
These ''don'ts" are based on practi-
cal experience.
