was developed in pale blue ratine
with pink floral motif. Allover eye

and cuffs. Many women are obliged

for all sorts Of occasions. If care
is taken In choosing both model and
material. there Is no reason why mi
lady may not always appear stylish
and well gowned. To be sure, she
will have no variety, but It is better
policy to wear a dress continuously
when in style than to wear II only
occasionally and have it remain in
the wardrobe as memento OF bygone
glories. For the woman who may
have but one frock. as we'll as for
the one who may have many. the
model shown above, developed in the
materials described. is equally pleas

gowns, a few suggestions may not go
amiss.
Judging from the slogan OF the I'M
porter, the number of filmy fabrics
one sees in the shops, and the num-
ber of these already seen made into
most charming frocks. a change in
materials will take place when the
mercury begins to climb. and the
daintiest and most diaphanous fabrics
will be used To be sure, printed silks,
Liberty messaline, foulard and char
meuse will still be popular, especially
where drapery is a feature of the
gown, and in the models for cool days.

silks to drapery, transparency will be

HOUSEHOLD NOTES

To utilize an old -four sitter, boil
eggs in it, simply setting the sitter
in a kettle of boiling water.
Porch chair covers can be knitted Of
heavy crochet covers and will be both
durable and washable.
Nothing as a lining for bureau
drawers is quite as good as pure
white paper frequently changed.
Rugs will not slip on a polished
floor If a strip of rubber is sewed
underneath them at either end.
Boil new earthenware dishes be-
fore using them, and they will lose
a good deal of their brittleness.
Broken molds of lemon or coffee
Jelly can be remade by warming the
jelly and turning It into wet molds
Pictures for the guest room should
be those of general interest. not fam
lily portraits, on any account
Tie a stale bag over the food chop

you would prevent them scattering
In a spring moving the safest way
to transport silver is to scatter il

For the veranda tea service a wick

anese ware are peculiarly pleasant.
When young children grow restless,
let them string things-beads or cut
straws of short lengths Of macaroni
Flower holders OF bronze or cop

insure a graceful arrangement of the
stems.
Delightful combination sets for in

which have the coffee pot on the
ground floor a cream pitcher on the
second and a sugar bowl on top.
If the pantry shelves have no doors,
put a. window shade on a roller in
front of them and pull down the
shade when not in use. It will make
real protection against dust.
A single mint plant set under

AS hot weather approaches the wise
housekeeper plans to make simple
