HANDY FOR THE TRAVELLERS
Probably Most Convenient Pin cush-
Ion That Has Yet Been Brought
Into Common Use.

A pin cushion that lends itself to
the needs of the traveller is a COM
binatlon affair of cushion and Jewel
box. The leather frame is green, red
or drak blue, is octagonal In shape,
with a heavily padded cushion top
covered with velvet.
This top fits SO tightly into the
lower part that none but the initiated
guesses at the double function of the
box. This makes 1t safe hiding
place for trinkets.
An ingenious girl has copied one of
the combination cushions by using a
fancy candy box, six inches in dia-
meter and two inches high. She pad
ded the top with wool, covered 1t with
pink chiffon velvet the tone of the
flowers in the gaily stamped border
and finished the edge with narrow
silver braid.
Instead of using the bottom for
1ewelry, she turned 1t into collar
box. The dimensions enable her to
carry more than a dozen collars
without crushing.

RenIn WIN a Ncw Had.

"A new hat must have" says the
average woman each season, and a
new hat she does have. even If she
has to go without some of the neces-
sities to get 1t. Now this may seem
foolish to some, but in reality it is
very wise. With a becoming hat,
fresh and up-to-date, even though it
is accompanied by an old suit, provid-
ed 1t is neat and trim, woman passes
as stylish and well dressed. Let her
appear, on the other hand, in new
suit, with an old hat, detected and
hopelessly out of fashion, and she is
Immediately referred to as way be-

woman who is wise in dress matters
begins each new season with a new
hat.-Woman's Home Companion.

The Dolly Warden Gown.

Each of the French couturiers has
brought out a Dolly Warden fowered
gown and. though differing In particu-
lars, all these gowns are alike in one
respect-the pannier. A Dolly Warden
costume without a pannier would be
like Hamlet with Hamlet left out, or
something equally as Disappointing;
and, indeed. the pannier. quite as
much as the fowered material, makes
the costume worthy Of its name. Pom
padour silks and fowered taffetas in
new and charming patterns have APP
peared like magic in the shops to
make these Dolly Warden gowns. and
as quantity of the silk is required
for the draped panniers, the folk who
have been crying out against the small
amount Of material necessary nova
days should cheer up.

TOILET TABLE.

letter and ringworm are caused by
imperfect Indigestion and should be
cured by proper diet. Local applica-
tions of iodine will give temporary
relief.
An excellent tonic for the hair is
made of one ounce of best castor or
sweet oil, two ounces of bay rum
and two of French brandy. Scent
with rose geranium.
People suffering from indigestion
should eat a very light breakfast. A
raw egg separated and beaten light
with a little cream or milk added is
often sufficient and easily digested.
The best kind of exercise is the
kind that makes you forget that you
are exercising-in other words, play,
says a physician. It's a good scheme
to have some more or less strenuous
game for a hobby, golf or bowling or
tennis or archery-anything that ap-
peals to you and affords exercise
with interest. But this is not saying
that systematic exercise is not a good
thing, too.

WARDROBE NEEDS MUCH CARE
Amply Repaid, However, on the Score
OF Economy, as Well as Having
Proper Appearance.

People are not all naturally neat
and tidy, but often "a word to the
wise is sufficient" If a dress is taken
off and thrown to the floor. perhaps in
damp state, or even hung up undried,
when next wanted for wear it will be
found crushed and draggled Ndereas,
If care Is taken to shape 1t well, place
1t on hanger and hang 1t where the
air has a chance to dry 1t, the garment
will appear fresh and neat when
wanted again. The wardrobe of an
untidy, careless girl or woman will
cost her twice the amount OF her more
tidy neighbor, and she will never look
SO fresh and trim
Hats often suffer most. A hat
comes bright and new from the miIli-
ner's, is worn day after day, tossed ON
a bed or chair when taken off and left
for all dust and dirt to adhere TO it.
After months wear it is hardly fit to
be seen. The girl who keeps her new
hat for clear days, brushes 1t careful
ly, arranges the bows or flowers, then
puts 1t away In box or covers 1t with
paper, finds 1t a pretty hat as long as
she requires it. "A stitch In time
saves nine" is very true saying re-
| garding all clothes. A garment is sent
to the laundry with a small hole, re-
turns with a far larger one, and at
last is thrown aside only fit for the
rag bag. II the same garment had
been mended In time 1t would have
lasted months.
Stockings should have special no
tice. All thin places should be neatly
| darned before they become holes.
A veil rolled each time 1t is taken
off will keep neat much longer than
when folded; gloves pulled out and
| smoothed will wear twice as long as

Dresses should be folded right. side
