BLACK LAME sHAnEs-

WE are still enamored of that touch
of black for giving distinction to
the decoration of our rooms, and the
latest idea is the black lamp shade.
This is oblong in shape and is made Of
black satin or chiffon velvet very
closely. plated. IF placed in a ra1ner
secluded corner of the room it gives a
gloomy. almost eerie, note that is most
effective, but the rest of the room must
be lighted in the usual way. Another
mournful lamp shade is made of plated
black 1airaon finished with a fringe OF
black beads, and yet another is COM
posed OF a close trelIiswork of black
jet beads lined with a single fold of
black chiffon and having d long fringe
of delicate cut Jet beads.

HOW DO YOU SLEEP?

MANY people have bad nights. be-
cause they find great difficulty in
dropping off, They lie awake and
toss for hours and make themselves so
uncomfortable that they are thorough
ly worn out before sleep comes to their
rescue.
If this is one of your little habits
you should not try to conquer it by
going to bed at certain hour with
the intention Of making yourself sleep.
Sleep is a thing that won't be forced
It needs coaXing if it is to come at all.
If you have an early supper it is a
very good plan to drink a glass of hot
milk and eat a few biscuits the last
thing before you get into bed. Though
you don't know it, hunger may be the
trouble that is making you restless. A
light little meal will not give you in
digestion, particularly if you sip the
milk slowly, reading a book at the
same time.
Another excellent way OF coaxfng
sleep is rather queer one. Just be-
fore getting into bed you should wash
your feet in very cold water and dry
them brisk1y with a rough towel. This
causes the blood to rush into them
with such force that it is drawn away
from your head, and your overactive
brain has a chance of keeping quiet for
a. little while.
Reading in bed is often very sooth-
you must have a book rest which will
hold the book up before your face. 1t
is very bad for your eyesight to read
when you are lying on your side with
a book propped up against the bed rail
or the wall.
An apple eaten the last thing at night
is very good thing for insomnia.
Take it to bed with you and eat it after
the light is out
If you are so tired that you become
restless and the bed feels uncomfort-
able try what you can do by relaxing
all your muscles.
2 Do not be in a hurry about this 'let-
ting co. of yourself but try to relax
by degrees-first your head and then
your neck, and SO on until you reach
your toes. It is not very easy to fall
limp at first because it is a business
which needs a great deal Of concentra-
ton, but it completely takes your mind
off other things
When you are thoroughly relaxed all
over you will find that you are lying
perfectly at ease on the bed, with a
sense Of bIissful comfort which soon
fades off into the even greater comfort
of sleep.
The Bridgeport evening farmer. [volume] (Bridgeport, Conn.) 1866-1917, 1913-09-30

The red shades vary widely. There
is very vivid red that is being used
sparing1y for accessories on costumes,
but the majority of the reds are on
the dregs of wine order and soft brick
tones.
For evening wraps the eeraniun red
is in great demand. There is also a
purple with lots of red in it. a shade
resembling the fuchsia.
Browns should not be overlooked in
this list OF new colors. for all of the
couturieres have made much of them
this season, the tobacco and Havana
browns being the favorites. A soft,
pretty rose tint is often combined with
these brown tones.
For street wear the dark rich shades,
the tete de negre. deep taupe and g.
blue that is almost black are the fash
ionabIe coIors. Another new color is
called heather, a lovely grayish laven-
der that is particularly pretty in silky
textiles And everywhere there are to
be found quantities of silver used for
trimmings, and all silver lace is
thought to be more chic than gold
lace.
The Bridgeport evening farmer. [volume] (Bridgeport, Conn.) 1866-1917, 1913-09-30

lines should be the leading features of
the small girls wardrobe. In this age
of sanitary ideas the tub frocks play
an important part; consequently there
are delightful materials c1assed as
washable that are new and smart for
schoolgirls dresses.
Among the list of fabrics are the tub
Examines, eponges and ratines. These
are added to the long list containing
such well known favorites as Devon
shire cloth, kindergarten CLOTH denim,
tea.
The heavier materials lend them
selves best to tailored effects, and the
darker colors in the fabrics mentioned
stand a great deal of wear before it is
necessary to wash them.
Among the best liked trimmings for
these tub dresses are hand and ma
chine embroideries. Sharing favor
with these, however, are handsome

BUSINESS GIRLS CLOTHES

IF there is any one with preordain-
ed right to be careless with he1
clothes it is the woman OF wealth, but
it's dollars to doughnuts if a census OF
the case were taken that the girl who
has nothing would be found guilty OF
much greater sartoria1 carelessness.
Order should be the slogan of the
working girl who desires to present 3
well groomed appearance, and "a place
for everything and everything in its
place" is a motto that applies equally
as well to the wardrobe as it does to
the kitchen
When the working girl comes home
at night tired and probably Disguised
with the happenings of the day it is
natural that she should feel like
throwing her hat and coat down in any
old place. but it is only the work of a
minute to place the hat carefully in a
box and put the coat neatly on a hang
er. In the morning both these articles
of wearing apparel will be fresh and
ready to don with credit.
A hat that has been exposed to wet
and dampness, however, should be
thoroughly dried before being put
away. and plenty of tissue paper
should be stuffed in the crown to pre-
vent it from losing its shape.
Gloves are another dress accessory
that are apt to be carelessly treated.
The manner of keeping them when not
in use has more to do with lengthening
or shortening their lives than any num-
Der of wearings. They should never
be flung into a drawer, but laid quite
fiat and smooth in a box kept espe-
cially for the purpose. Light colored
gloves should be put away between
layers of white tissue paper. Wells,
too. are another expensive item of the
wardrobe that are often treated with
slight consideration. If your veil has
become damp it should be laid quite
fiat across a table and allowed to dry
IN that position so that it does not
wrinkle as it dries
There is divided opinion about the
care of furS-that is, furs that are con-
s.anely in use. Some experts say that
they should always be placed in the
boxes in which they were sent home
from the shop. Other authorities ad-
vocate the method of hanging them on
hangers Either way is better than
throwing them down in a heap on a
chair.
Now about your street costume. It
SHOULD never be worn in the home aft
er you come in from the Office, and
the skirt should never be worn with
cut the coat, as it becomes soiIed and
spotted in this way long before the
coat has begun to show signs of wear.
It IS wise, therefore, to keep an old
skirt to slip on at home So the Office
suit may be brushed and any soiled
sEo.s removed at once. Every month
or so it pays to have the skirt sent to
a tailor to be pressed and cleaned
Then. girls, do keep your lingerie in.

Where Pins 60

FOR many years the world has been
baff1ed by the problem of where the
pins go that are turned out in millions
and millions by the pin factories.
But the problem seems to have been
solved at last. A Paris scientist, DR..
Xavier, has been experimenting on
pins. hairpins and needles by the SIM
pie process OF watching few. He
states that they practically disappear
into thin air by changing into ferrous
=xsde a brownish rust that soon blows
away in dust
An ordinary hairpin~ took only 154
days to blow away A steel nib lasted
lust under fifteen months. A common
pin took eighteen months to vanish A
polished steel needle def1ed the ravages
of the atmosphere longest, taking two
and half years to disappear.
So the reason why the world is not

seems, exactly the same which makes

ec a Word to Mothers IL

NOW that the school term has begun
the question of the growing child's
diet looms up again. The school years
form one of the most important epochs
in the lives of children as regards ade-
quate nutrition. Parents are apt to
overlook this fact more from ignorance
than from wt11ful neglect.
Food during the school days should
be abundant and should contain sum-
ctent proteids, starches, sugars and in
organic salts to meet the demands of
rapid growth-for all the constituents
of a perfect food.
It is common joke for parents to
laugh at the enormous appetttes of
their growing girls and boys and to
limit the supply of certain foods needed
at this time Children are often allow
ed to go to school with only light
breakfasts, sometimes with none at all.
Then come cold luncheons at noon. All
this is extremely harmful.
A child should never be set at any

task before breakfast. II it rises
early and the meal hour is late it
should have bowl of hot milk, a. cup
of cocoa and roll before beginning
any work.
OF course the ideal dinner hour for
the child is noon, but when this is i'm
possible a hot luncheon should be ar
ranged for. Supper should comprise
very easily digested foods, and pastry.
cheese and meats are better omitted.
Meat soups are good. Baked potatoes,
stewed fruits and eggs in various ways
are excellent for the evening meal
Growing children should have plenty
Of milk, and they should be given to
understand that when hungry they can
always have glasses of milk. for the
asking.
Fresh fish, eggs and bacon are all
wholesome foods for children. and
meat, as a rule, may be given them
twice day. Large, healthy boys re-
quire a good proportion of meat in
their dietarieS.
