Blouse Suits.

The high place that has been ac-
corded Russian blouses has brought
the attention and cleVerness Of de-
signers in Paris to the fact that this
popular line can be modified. Con-
sequently variations of the Russian
suits have resulted and blouse suits
are here to stay.
There is a long wasted blouse suit
with a belt several inches below the
waist line that is very new. 1t is es-
pecially effective on slender figures.
Paul Poiret Is featuring this.
Fullness in the bodice and in the
long peplums is quite evident. The
belt is sometimes very broad and
sometimes merely a cord
side fastenings are the most decid-
ed for blouse suits. This gives oppor-
tunity for braid. embroidery and pan
e effects down the front. 1t also
shows the lines of coat to great ad-
vantage.

A DEMAND FOR ERMINE.

Ermine, tailed or tailless, is much in
demand Combined with black fox IL is
luxurious, a long coat having an all
round border at the level OF the knees,
suggesting n flounced effect. Blue fox
and chinchilla squirrel are also being
used by the most exclusive furriers, and
you have already heard of leopard's S
skin, though this still seems to be more
a freak than a fashion.
Apropos of expensive furs, 1t may be
added that the prices are not necessarily
fancy ones, the fur manufacturers hav-
ing had to pay very heavily for their pur-
chase. So great Is the fur demand now
adays that prices continue to mount so
far as the best furs are concerned, while
at the same time the methods OF dress
ing are so beautiful and sKIIIruI that
furs are well worth buying.

FASCINATING ARTICLES
EASILY DUPLICATED

There are plenty of fascinating little
articles In the art needlework shops
which the clover embroiderer can dupli-
cate at home. When purchased, these
small bits Of lace, linen, and handwork
cannot be had for u song.
A slipped bag to hold slippers. fan,

cessories which girl would carry to a

shape and embrOider a conventional de-
sign on the pongeo in shades of green,
light blue, and pink. Outline the design
with black French knots or beads
Sew the lining TO this with neat over
and-over stitches, and through the top
run cord. Any color combination may
be used for this bag.
An opera bag OF white satin is embroid-
cred with a wreath of yellow daisies with
brown centers green leaves, and a brown
bowknot. The top is buttonhoIe-stitched
in brown as are the eyelets, through
which is run brown ribbon.
A dainty clothes hanger for 4 child is
made of a strip of ecru linen embroidered
n ramber-Tose design in pinks and
greens.
The roses are made with six strands

Topics of Interest to Every Woman
EDITED BY JULIA CHANDLER MANI
Needed in
Matter of Compensation
ny FRANCES sHAFFER.

Some folk seem to be worrying great
deal about what may hapen in the years
to come through the advent Of eqHal
rights to men and women. They. say
that what women are asking for amounts
in reality TO more than equal rights and
less than equal burdens
And they point to certain laws which
protect the property rights Of married
women, while ignoring similar rights Of
men.
There's the New York State Jaw which
provides that married man cannot sell
any property without the consent of his
wife, while she can sell any of hers
whenever she feels disposed, and he is
allowed no equity in Ii.
On its face, there seems a bit OF hard
ship in the discrimination, but one must
reckon a bit with life as 1t runs and
with certain other laws before growing
excited over possible inequalities in the
final analysis

kind ever put before the public. Mrs.
Ruggles, who is known to the Washing
ten people as Mrs. Armstrong, the fore
most authority on domestic science in
the United States, has given particular
attention to the lectures she will give in
the National Capital. and the series to be
given every afternoon of next week. be-
ginning Monday, will be a most memora-
blc one
The prizes are very valuable. and Will
be displayed In booths at the hall. The

Young Wives Expected.

All the housewives and young women
contemplating matrimony are asked to
be present next Monday. At this ses-
sion she will explain I'm detail particu-
lars IN regard to the Prize Contest, as
well as outline the various cookery sub
iects on which she will lecture and
demonstrate during the balance Of the
week. This first session is planned to
prove an enjoyable social time for all
present 1t is going to be a big event,
and you should by all means arrange
your affairs SO you can attend
Mrs. Ruggles says II is surprising how
the average housewife gets in a rut'
in her ways of cooking. She does the
same things over and over in the same
old way, which may be the best way
and may not: ordinarily it is not. And
in nearly every case even the most
ordinary dishes are prepared differently
by different cooks.
Doubtless all of US have observed this
ourselves. Did you ever find any one
who could cook quite like your mother?
Haven't you observed. when guest
at different homes, how the fiavors OF
the foods differ? Each is IN n rut all
her own and the fact that this is so
generally true is evidence that few
cooks follow scientific methods. but that
each has developed a system and
style" all her own.
Preparing Meals No Snap.
Every woman realizes, doubtless far
better than the men can realize. that the
task of preparing three meals day for
So DAYS in the year and getting sufficient
varieties and maintaining the desired de-
gree OF quality in cooking is no snap.
We know that ii is mighty difficult
job. and doubtless % men out OF 100 who
give little Thought I" the work the house
wife must alperintend would find il too
much of a job for themselves. The
Washington Herald decided II would be
doing a mighty good thing fer the women
of this city and vicinity, Cs well as for
the men and boys and girls. IL it could
arrange for a hiGh-grade cooking session
under high-Eradc instructor, and is
delighted to invite the public to the treat
for which Il is arranged.
This Is a most excellent opportunity
for all ;rown-up girls and young ladies
to get started right in the matter of
cooking by an expert of exceptional
ability
This is something that should interest
every riSht-thinking woman. for after
all wcman's greatest charm Is TO he
way, and in no way is she put to so
certain, constant. or severe a test Us in
with the cooking.
Both Mrs RuCgles and The Washing.
ton Herald extend a special invitation to
al young women TO attend all the ses-
sions OF the cooking school next week.

SAVING OIL AND NATURAL GAS.

(From Uncle Sam's Workshop
 When an oil we'll is shot" that is, when a heavy charge Of dyna- mite exploded ia beneath the sur face of the earth the explosion not only sends a mighty column or OH and gas gushing high into the ar at the time. but this heavy flow may continue by underground pres sure and waste thousands of barrels Of oil.
 For months the government bur eau of mines has been working along lines of gas and oil and in a recent publication. the bureau has brought to the attention of oil men the tre- mendous commercial importance Of checking this unrestrained flow of natural wealth.
 It has been found that oil and gas wells produce better if not allowed 70 yield their full daily capacity and of placing the industry on more economical basis An example IS quoted in the case of a Mexican oil well which yields 23,000 barrels a day under restrained flow. which would. it is believed, have long since been exhausted had not the flow been checked.

Epidemfcs often start and grow where the schools have been prompt fy closed, or where there are no schools A well kept school might be a haven of refuge from any wan dering germ. But American cities are hardly ready to try that method, as our schools are too many and too crowded to be so treated. And besides, we are making good prog ress against epidemics, without att tempting such bold means of pro- lection. It is the prevention, not the checking, of epidemics that demands most of the attention of the modern health boards and sanitary officers. And the schools, with their thou sands of children menaced by every wave of disease, have been one of the strongest influences driving the health authorities and lawmakers toward stamping out disease.
