RELIEF FOR TIRED EYES

If there is much sewing to do-and
at this season of the year there is
generally piles of 1.-THE seamstress
dressmaker or mother of a large
family. as the case may be, should
take care that her eyes are not
strained or allowed to become over
tired by close application to the
stitching Of seams. working of put
tonholes and the thousand other tasks
that are necessary when dressmaking
is being done.
For that reason, always be careful.
when working on dark materials. to
wear a light-colored apron and spread
a white cloth on the work table. If
you are working by an artificial light.
a white cloth on the table will be
found to increase the light to an APP
preciable extent: thus the strain on
the eyes will not be so great.
On the other hand, If you are work
ing on white or very light-colored
materials, a dark cloth thrown over
the lap will reduce the strain on the
eyes.
If needles having elongated eyes are
used, they will be easier to thread
than those with round eyes. When
the eyes become very tired you will
find relief in looking out the window
at a distant view or at a picture of q
landscape that has distance in it
down a long road shaded with over
hanging trees or over the hills to dis
tant mountains.
Leaning the head back against the
chair and covering the eyes with a
cold compress will often relieve eye
strain and eye headache. which is the
result of sewing on fine materials or
intricate stitching in fine lace making
where the crochet hook is used.
Take care of your eyes; they are
your best friend. for what would you
do if you should lose your sight?

SMART AND USEFUL GOWN
81
-
BY MAY MANTON

Here is a gown that is absolutely
up-to-date. 1t includes sleeves that
are joined to it at the long shoulder
line, it is closed at the left of the
front and the skirt is made with
o~verlapped portions at front and
back, yet it is m of the most prac-
teal and useful that the wardrobe
can contain. In the illustration, it
is made of serge and is trimmed
with an embroidered jabot, collar and
cuffs, and this finish is exceedingly
dainty; but the model is a good one
for prunella cloth, ~broadcloth, char
are made in tailored style and the
collar and cuffs can be of any pre-
ferred material. If the round neck
is not becoming, a little ehemisette
that is finished with a stock coll
lar can be worn and the skirt can
be made either to the high or the
natural waist line so that the de-
sign provides for all figures. Char
meuse satin in such colors as taupe
and dark blue is much worn for sim
pie occasions and collars and cuffs
of contrasting material always make
a good effect. Amber is beautiful
with taupe and is exceedingly smart
and there are almost numberless
combinations that can be made. This
collar and these cuffs can be made
of the material with the jabot only of
muslin quite as we'll as in the man
ner illustrated.
For the medium size, the blouse
will require 3k yards of ma
terial %, 2h yards So or
IL yards A inches wide with q
yard 27 for the collar, cuffs and
jabot; and the skirt 5 yards q or So
or 3A yards A if the material has
figure or nap. AZ yards % Or "a
yards &c or A inches wide If not. For
making the collar, cuffs and jabot.
as illustrated, use the embroidery
design $50.
The May Manton pattern of the
blouse 1882 is cut in sizes from "a to
40 inches bust measure; of the skirt
1907 from % to 80 inches waist mea
ure. They will be mailed to any
address by the fashion department of
this paper on receipt of ten cents
for each.

Christmas Gift for Friend

MY utdi AlleS DOChs
Which would make the most desir-
able Christmas gift to a girl of Is,
writing paper, candy Or perfumery?
Or could you suggest something bet
ter? WAITING.
p. S.-We have been friends a couple
of years and l am well acquainted with
the girls family.
Either the writing paper Or the
candy will, l am sure, be very ac-
ceptable. Don't, however, start your
friend II the perfume habit? 1t is a
very disagreeable one, for it is thrice
cursed; it curses her that uses. her
associates and everyone else within
a smelling radius.
If you decide on stationery have a
die made of your friends monogram,
She will be able to use it for several
years, and it will be a gift that she
will surely appreciate.
