No Frills Needed

The feminine girl is truly a charm

ruff1es are most enhancing but they
should be cast aside when she goes
in for mems play The true sports
woman asks for no quarter in the
game and she shoots as straight and
tramps as far as her masculine COM
panion.
She should not handicap herself,
therefore. with her clothing; it should
be as comfortable, as sensible and as
practical as a mans. And when she
adopts mems apparel let her do so
consistently.
The riding togs she will require in
the woods are quite different from
the formal habit to be worn in the
park. The most comfortable apparel
will be the knickerbockers or riding
brooches. These may be bought in
flannel. khaki. corduroy or forestry
cloth. They also come in pongee, but
1t is likely to be bit chilly in Octo-
Der, especially in the early morning,
when the sportswoman starts out,
and a good warm pair of cloth or
corduroy breeches is the most salts
factory Even for tramping, knick-
erbockers are a joy, and many women
delight in throwing aside skirts when
they leave the bounds of civilization

when baskets are used so much as a
decoration in embroidery designs
To make a ribbon pin basket, cut
four pieces of cardboard three and
one-half inches high. four inches
across the top and three inches across
the bottom. Cover the cardboard with
Pompadour silk and overland the
sides together.
Cover a three-inch square for the
bottom and overland 1t to the sides.
Fill the basket with lambs wool and
overland piece of plain silk OF satin
to the sides to close the top of the
basket.
Make a handle to match the top by
shirring a narrow strip of silk or
ribbon over q piece of featherbone.
Fasten the handle to the side of the
basket, concealing the fastening I'M
der rose made of ribbon matching

Fill the basket with fancy pins and
you will have a most attractive pin

Drink Water

The human body is constantly I'M
dergoing tissue changes. Water has
the power of increasing these changes
which multiply the waste products,
but at the same time they are re-
newed by its agency, giving rise to
increased appetite which in turn pro-
vides fresh nutriment.
If You do not accustom yourself to
drink water regularly, you are liable
to have the waste products form fast
err than they are removed. Any OBJ
struction to the free working of ma
tural laws at once produces disease.
Great weakness and langour on ris-
ing in the morning are generally due
to a. large secretion of these waste
products and the remedy Is to drink
a tumblerful of water-either hot or
cold-just before retiring. This ma
terially assists in the process during
the night and leaves the tissues fresh
and strong ready for the active work
of the next day.

Brassieres

Brassieres are a necessity and no
material is too elegant to make them
of. The models are more elaborate
than ever. Those of silk and lace are
really sufficiently handsome to form
a handsome lining for the waist and
at the same time are so shaped as to
serve the necessary purpose. They
are both fastened in the back and
front models. Extremely new are the
brassieres with a slightly bloused
portion below and fitted section at
the top Both inexpensive and bet
ter grade brassieres come with Slip
out bones, a brassieres of cluny lace
and strong net cut low back and
front and boned just enough to keep
its shape has net puff1ngs around the
top and over the shoulders through
which wash-ribbons are drawn.
