How to Protect the Party Gown.

Nearly every girl realizes that the
average party gown gets more hard
usage when hanging in the crowded
wardrobe than while it is being actual
ly worn. AS most girls have far less
wardrobe space than they need. the
best means Of protecting the party
frock from contact with the workaday
garments is to make special cover for
it Of lawn. dimity. muslin or a similar
dainty and sheer material.
Having measured the length Of the
gown from shoulders to skirt hem.
take two full widths Of the chosen COW
ering material and shape an end Of
each one Of them into shoulders and
the half Of a neck.
These shoulders and the long straight
sides of the cover are then scanned
together. the bottom Is hemmed. the
neck Is neatly bound with ribbon bow
ed in front at the top Of two short
silken cords from which depend two
small square or oval sachets. When
the gown Is adjusted to its individual
hanger and the muslin covers drawn
smoothly over its folds and draperies it
is in condition to be as nicely kept as
it is possible to keep any unlocked
garment

How to Utilize Space.

A remarkable idea has just been
patented. 1t is a very simple one. but
one about which every one Is asking.
"Why did we not think of it beforeY

there is a lack of cupboard accOmmO-

cupboards seem to have been alto

The Cricket's Chirp.

The variation Of speed in the chirp-
ing Of crickets depends so closely on
temperature that the height Of the
thermometer may be calculated by OBJ
serving the number Of chirps in a min
ute. At GO degrees f. the rate Is
eighty chirps minute. at 70 degrees
F. 120 per minute. and the rate in
creases four chirps to the minute with
. change of one degree. Below a tenn
perature of so degrees F. the cricket is
not likely to make any sound.-Ex-

How We Fall Asleep.

1t Is not generally known that the
body falls asleep in sections. The mus
cles of the legs and arms lose their
power long before those which support
the head and these last sooner than the
sense Of sight sleeps first. then the
sense Of taste, next the sense of smell,
next that Of hearing and lastly that of
touch. These are the results Of care

the right foot over till it touches the
left heel. Raise the left foot at mo-
ment OF contact and step back on it.
Take another step back on right foot
and bring left over till feet touch
From this position raise the right foot
and continue with original step. This
Is the full corde. After learning the
rotation Of the foot positions try and
get little snap into the last step.
That is when you bring the feet to-
gether at the end Of the forward and
backward steps. The two long steps
should be done slowly. and the drag
should take the form Of slight stamp
such as the Spaniards do in their folk
dances. The girl is going in the op-
pc ite direction all Of the time.

OF GREAT Use IN
BREAKING UP COLDS
Kellogg's Tasteless Castor Oil Is
a Thing Long Desired

Everyone knows the value of castor
oil in breaking up fall and winter colds
but most people have found it too hard
to take.
Kellogg's Tasteless Castor Oil does
away with this only objection. 1t is
pure, simple castor oil without taste OF
odor. Nothing is added; nothing good
taken out.
In making castor oil tasteess, Spencer
Kellogg & Sons of Buffalo have discov-
cred secret that had evaded chemists
for 5000 years.
kellogg's TSsteless Castor Oil works
better than the old, evil-tasting, evil
smelling kind. 1t operates pleasantly
without gripping, and does not upset the
stomach. Children take It easily.
Do not confuse Kellogg's Tasteless
Castor Oil with prepared, mixed or ia
vored castor oils. 1t is the only true
pure, tasteless kind. Sold in all drug
stores, not in bulk, but in 25e and SOC
sizes. The public is protected by the
trade mark-a green castor leaf, bearing
the signature ellogg's.
