FROM DAYS OF GRANDMOTHER
OId-F ashioned Vlnaigrette Has Beer
Revived, But Merely AS
Decorative Accessory.

Comparatively few of us but re-
member the old-fashioned vinaigrette
which grandmother" kept in her
beaded handbag in readiness for the
occasion when someone among her
unruly descendants should reduce her
to Mysteries. The modern middle
aged woman does not tolerate hyster-
les in herself or in anybody else;
but she has discovered that the vinai.
grette is a charming accessory for
the bridge bag or the Chatelaine, and
so she has added one of them to her
collection of ornamental Junk" of a
costly sort Some of the vinaigrettes
carried are modern replicas of the
old-fashioned types in white opaque
glass striped with dark blue or purple,
green or wine crystal, and others are
Dalpably fifty-year-old scent bottles re-
juvenated with new shoppers, hinges
and, in some instances. entire tops.
Really modern are the vinaigrettes of
filigree in silver or gold as we'll as
the specimens in solid precious
metals; but in beauty these are not
comparable with the ones of colored
enamel, exquisitely decorated with de
signs showing tiny flowers in natural
tints.
No combination Of metals, enamel
and jewels is, apparently, too costly
to be used in the development of the
modern vinaigrette, and yet it il
merely toy for holding a few drops
of expensive perfumery. The woman
who feels herself growing faint should
not expect relief from the salts" bot
tie lying on her neighbours lap, for II
is not the really useful, yet ornamen
tai, trifle of grandmother's day.

Result Of Good Care.

no difference if she is good or bad,
these qualities are due to some ex-

If you have calf from a good COW

| wish you would write Mrs Boyle,

would ask her whether she has been
hired to write such a testimonial,
whether her testimonial represents

hope you will remember that she
is a housewife, like yourself, that she
