Of DEVELOPMENT, is the suggestion that
the average woman has weakness for

weakness born. not of genuine admira-
tinn. but of pure selhshness, presumably
because that type is more lightly in
riuenced-"
Yet that woman, not a mother her
self believes that she speaks Tor the
whole world Of mothers, the whole
world of women. when she declares that
one of the things that women most de-
sire to see developed in their sons, their
brothers. their fathers, and those not

Odd Uses for Soap.

Before driving nail or screw into
hardwood run it into a piece of soap.

were soft wood, and you win see to
your joy that there will be no danger
Of the wood splitting. as is often the
case.
If your door stick or bureau draw

with dry soap, any kind, and they will
move more easily.

results.

How TO Wear Flowers.

Roses are best for evening wear. Even
IL they are buds. do not wear three or
four of them: that would spoil the artis-
tic effect. Select one full-blown rose and
tuck it into the coil of your hair, letting
it nestle close TO the ear.
The smart way to wear flowers on the
tailored suit is to attach them to the
left lapel of the coat. Violets look best
worn near the waist line. just a little to
the left side and tied with soft. narrow,
shaded violet satin ribbon.
To wear old-time garden flowers with
artistic effect they should be made into
small bouquets and fastened to the chif-
fon scarf or the dainty fichu. or a bunch
of loose flowers may be worn at the
corsage.

GUIDES TO BEAUTY.

Breathe deeply and drink plenty OF

complexion. Ice water is injurious when
taken frequently or in quantities
Cleanse the face thoroughly every
evening before retiring. Dust and CRIME

to become coarse and permanently dis
cOlored.

put a compress of eau de cologne around
the throat and remove it as soon as the
skin threatens to become too red. This
is a powerful tonic to the throat.
II the neck Is firm and no lines show,
then keep 1t so by a good carriage OF the
head and regular massage with good Skin
food. A woman looks older than she

come wrinkled and her chin baggy. The
graceful neck may be long or short, but
II must be nodded in a circular form, and

New Initiu&

An initial worked in filet crochet with
fine thread and a very fine crochet hook
can be inset into a handkerchief with
good effect. This is something new, and
is especially attractive with a fine crochet
edging. The handkerchief should first be
hemstitched with a narrow hem. Draw
only three threads and take four threads

DRAPED LACE COATS
FOR STOUT FIGURES

Although perhaps the lace tunic has a
tendency to age its wearer ii has cOm-
pensating merits which recommend il to
women of medium age and even younger
women who have a tendency to stoutness.
For the close-fitting pointed tunic OF
black lace cut with the upper part in the
form OF a coat tends TO make the figure
look slim in a manner that many, alas,
find eminently desirable as years come
fast upon them.
The favorite lace employed is chan
tilIy, and when one knows how to drape
artisticaIly nothing can be more elegant.
On the contrary, nothing can be dowdier
than a drapery which seeks to be artistic
and fails lamentably in the attempt

About Real Lace.

Never wash real lace, as it is very
bad for it and sometimes ruins 1t, but
clean it in the following manner:
Put the lace between layers of tissue
paper, well sprinkled with powdered
magnesia. and place il between the
leaves of book, keeping heavy weight
on top of the book for three or four days.
Then shake the powder out and the
lace is perfectly clean and looks like
new.
