Poiret in printed interview urges
upon womankind the necessity for
care and discrimination. He asserts
that to be well dressed. one must be
httingly dressed and that every other
consideration must be made sub
eervient to the personel. Never has
there been greater need that such truth
should be burned into the mind than
at the present moment. for. while
there is much that is sravishinelvb
tiful. there arc many dangers for the
unwary. Fashion always considers
the svelte figure in making her models.
Since by no means all Of US are built
on such lines, il behooves each TO
study herself and to demand such
adaptation as her own needs require.

HINTS FOR HOME SEWERS.

The following requests have come
in from time to time and we are sure
the answers will prove helpful to a
great many of our readers.
To sew in sleeves When the gar
ment seams have been finished and
the arm hole trimmed to the proper
size, fold from the shoulder seam
carefully until the center is reached,
then mark with a thread. If the
waist is for thin person, place seam
of the sleeve one inch forward of this
mark; if for stout, one and one half
inches; if for medium, one and one
quarter inches. Having found the
place for the sleeve, haste one inch
above, plain. then starting at that
point, fold armhole together evenly
and find center; mark it with a
thread; commence at seam and haste
sleeve under arm in plain to thread;
distribute the gathers evenly the rest
of the way around. These rules are
excellent and if followed exactly will
usually bring satisfactory results. II,

FOOD PRINCIPLES.

This question is becoming an in
teresting and important one to all
painstaking housewives. Our grand
mothers served any food they wished,
even to pickles and custard. The fat
men ate food suitable for the lean,
and those having indigestion the
same as those whose digestion was
perfect. Today conditions are differ
ent, and food values are being con-
sidered in the most humble homes
because of the course of domestic
science carried on in the schools.
We older housekeepers, who have
not had the advantage of the course
are alive to it's value and eagerly
make use of each valuable fact.
1t is not hard to classify the differ
ent articles of food, provided one
stops to think just what each means.

however, the figure is not just in pro-
portion, some fitting may be requir-
ed. The sleeve should be gathered
twice at top, even if it is not very
full. The seam should fall in a line
with the thumb. OF course this rule
does not apply to those that are to be
sewn in with the under arm seam.
To hang skirt-Sew on the belt first,
and have packets finished with hooks
and eyes. Then take a yard stick or
any stick three feet long for meas
ure. Put on the skirt. Place end of
the stick on the floor and against the
skirt. Mark top with chalk or pin.
Mark every two or three inches
This Will give the extra for hips and
back. See how far you want your
skirt from the floor and mark your
stick that distance. Lay the skirt on
the table and place top of stick at
marks at hip and straight to bottom.
Then mark skirt all around with a
thread where the mark on the stick
comes. Put on skirt again and see if
you are sure you like the length. If
so, cut off skirt. leaving enough for a
seam, if you are going to face it, or

hem, allowing for the turning under
of the hem also. Turn down the hem
to where the thread is, holding the
RICH side toward you, and haste with
close basting stitches. Lay skirt on
table, hem up. make piece of paste
board the depth you wish the hem,
allowing for the turn over part; lay
over hem and mark with pencil; trim
off carefully; turn down edge and
run gathering thread along. Pull
this thread as you haste hem, just
enough to make hem lay smooth; then

THE COMING MAN.

Show me the boy who has plenty of
grit
And is honest in every way,
And in years to come can show you
man,
A leader among men of his day.
Show me the boy who loves honest
hard work
And has other employment than
teasing,
He will be a man who never will shirk,
And whose manners at all times are
pleasing.
Show me the boy who is brim-full of
fun,
But no lover of practical joking,
And I'll show you man who is good
and is kind,
And has not formed the habit of
croaking.
Show me the boy who is thoughtful
and kind
And respectful to sister and mother;
When to manhood he's grown, the
world will declare
He's an ideal husband and lover.
Show me the boy who's courage
enough
To say no, to all forms of tempta-
ton;
He'll be a man as one of great power,
And an honor to God and his
nation.

press before stitching. If one has
never tried this way of doing, the
result will be pleasant surprise.
There is nothing that will make a
woman look more untidy than a skirt
that hangs in scallops at the bottom,
and puckered hem.
To finish seams of under garments
the felled seam is heater than the
french. To finish, sew the seam as
usual, cut off one side close to the
seam, the other must be left wider.
Put narrow hemmer on machine and
hem down wide part directly on the
garment. II left too wide it will not
turn under smooth. There will be no
tronble in guiding as the under part
and is held steady by it.

The two great divisions, of course,
are the organic, or those built up of
living cells, and the inorganic, with
out them.
The organic is composed of three
divisions-proteids, carbohydrates,
fats and oils.
The proteids build up the tissue
and repair the worn out tissue of the
body. The elements that do it are
the albumen of eggs, meat and fish,
animal caseine of milk and cheese;
vegetable caseine of peas, beans,
peanuts; gluten of cereals; gelatine
of bones and fish, fibrine, muscle Of
meat.
The carbohydrates furnish energy
and maintain heat. They are found
in the starch of cereals and vegetables,
and in the sugar of fruits, vegetables
and sugar cane.
The fats and oils are found in
cream, meat and nuts. Fats and oils
furnish energy and maintain heat the
same as the carbohydrates.
The inorganic class comprises
mineral matter and water. This class
builds up bone and other tissues
aids digestion and purifies the blood.
In it we find sodium, iron, lime,
potash, sulphur. Water regulates the
temperature, aids in carrying off
waste, acts as carrier, aids in diges-
ton and acts as solvent.
If we take time to think about
these things when we are preparing a
meal the work will prove far more in
teresting than we have ever imagined.
By being interested we are less weary.
To cook an egg without thought
makes it tiresome. It is not so when
we know its chief property is albumen
belonging to the proteid class which
builds up and repairs tissue; is or
ganic because it was built up. of living
cells. Then going a little further, it
is still more interesting to know just
how cooking affects this albumen.
Whether it should be slow or rapid
whether boiling, frying, poaching,
scrambling or stirring makes it more
or less digestible; which will nourish
the members of the family the best?
Everyone is acquainted with the
egg which was thrown into the frying
pan and brought to the table white
and leathery. The sight of which
was ruinous to the appetite and diges-
ton.
Housekeepers, let us awaken to the
needs Of the inner man and read up
on these important things even if we
have to neglect our new political
