HOUSEHOLD HELPS.

Among the household helps found in
a hOme-making magazine Is an idea for
using radiator heat that is worth passing
along.
1t says: Have the tinsmith make Ii
tray of heavy galvanized iron, size about
six inches longer and five inches wider
than your radiator. Turn up one side
two inches and the other sides one inch
to prevent dishes from slipping off. Have
hah-inch holes drilled in the two-inch
side, and set hooks in the wall to pass
through the holes.
Those persons who have grapes In the
garden may like to know they can be
kept till we'll into the new year if the
end of the stems are dipped in paraffin
wax, and each bunch is wrapped sep
arately in tissue paper, twisting 1t firmly
to keep out the air The punches should
be packed in a basket in layers with
sheet wadding between.
1t goes without saying only perfect
grapes should be SO preserved.

large, curly stalks Of the parsley and
plunge into boiling water, dipping one

hang in the sun to dry or put into a

boxes between layers Of waxed paper and
keep in a dry place. When wanted for

Latest American Fashions

How will you have your evening gown
made? "Oh, draped, of course you'll
probably answer, and then you get your
lovely, shimmering. silken material, and
wonder if you'll ever dare to run your
scissors through it and cut 1t in all
those strange pieces which draped mod

feel doubtful of the result will forego a
draped design and turn back to the same
old straight lines. rather than risk the
ruin of your new material involved in
its cutting.
1t is for you uncertain ones that
have designed the model in the sketch.
The desired effect of draping is secured
by using two separate lengths of ma

and back and caught in a knot on either
side of the waist. This little frock would

of the skirt are garlands of small pink

fon corsage and the short sleeves, and a
larger knot of the blue ribbon is arranged

see that the skirt is very simple, with
scant, evenly distributed gathers at the
belt. This same dress developed in pale
azure blue charmeuse with pink roses
and silver gauge ribbon bowknots, would
be beautiful.

In the Land of Fashion.
By Anne Rittenhouse.

1t would be Interesting to know who
started the fashion for crepe de chine
underwear. At first it amused every
one and was regarded a caprice in
an era of sartorial caprices. Those who
applied philosophy to clothes said that
the withdrawal of muslin for under
wear was in keeping with the spirit of
the times in which every tradition was
challenged. None but philosophers or
those who live by tradition saw any
reason to grieve over the appearance of
this fascinating fabric in it's new field.
In truth, the majority of women saw
economy in it. 1t washes admirably
and does not need starch; it wears well
and needs very little trimming. 1t is
soft and clinging, and therefore does
not interfere with the scanty draperies
with which women wrap themselves in
the name of fashion.
There is no reason that women
should not wear crepe de chine instead
of muslin, and therefore why should it
be looked upon askance? 1t is consid-
cred positively immodest by many types
| of women, and yet 1t is more Opaque
than muslin, and therefore covers one
| in a more modest fashion. 1t is prob
able that it will win it's way. for the
shops insist upon it and the women who
| have tried it like it immensely. 1t Is
the novelty of the day. and therefore
under discussion. Each window that
shows a mass of this crepe de chine
| lingerie is sure to attract a thrOng of
people.
| In flesh pink. trimmed with shadow
lace and further Ornamented with pink
rosebuds, 1T does look pretentious.
The average woman sees it in this light
and instantly exclaims that she would
not think of owning a single garment
| of it, but when the crepe de chine Is
white and cluny lace is used and the
pink rosebuds are omitted then the
garments become quite commonplace.
They should appeal to every one who
| is not. joined to tradition. 1t will be
some months before its extreme novelty
will wear off. and there are some
women who will never adopt it, but as
a fashion and a novelty it must be
| chrOnicled.
] One descending to this planet would
| think that the laundries had disap-
peared and that the profession OF
| washing and ironing had been given
| up by all those who once INDUCED in

A Pretty Waist Belt.

one of white crepe de chine for less.
Combinations with attractive lace tops
and shoulder straps in white sell for
$50 and the nightgowns run from IS
up. 1t is not possible to get muslin
ones for less than this, and If one IN
dulges in French underwear the prices
would be double. Therein lies the f1rst
economy of buying crepe de chine. and
the second one is in the wearing qualities
of the fabric against those of muslin
Also the fact that they can be Numbered
very easily. as they do not need starch
nor extra ironing.
