delightful creations. In the double

matron as the foremost figure. The
lines OF this black velvet costume
are simply ideal for the woman

Safe Hints

When washing blue calico rinse in
water in which few cents worth of
alum has been dissolved. then rinse in
clear water and dry. A hot iron will
impair the color Of blue goods, but the
color will sometimes return.
When there is no shoe polish to be
had, lemon juice makes an excellent
substitute. A few drops sprinkled on
black or tan shoes and rubbed brisIlly
with a soft buster will give a brilliant
polish.
To prevent the dust from rising when
sweeping a carpet, sprinkle over tba
floor leaves that have been washed and
squeezed nearly dry, and be careful not
to tread on them.
Olives and radishes are eaten with
the fingers Oranges, peaches and ap-
pies are pared, quartered and then
eaten with the fingers.
If a little lemon Juice is added to tha
water in which peaches are dropped
before cooking, the fruit is not SO APT
to discolor.
