TAKE TIME FOR SHORT NAP
Woman viii Find Her Health and
Beauty Much Improved by
Sensible Course.

If you are easily tired and apt to
grow fretful and nervous as afternoon
turns into night, did you ever stop
to consider that very possibly you
feel so just because you have not
given yourself a minutes rest from
the time you arose in the morning
until you retired for the night?
Many women act this way day in
and year out Yet If a well-inten-
toned friend should suggest a nap in
the afternoon, or even few minutes
rest In ones favorite chair, the idea
would be fatty turned down with the
remark that Il never sleep in day
time" These women doubtless do not
realize that they will never become
rested until they give up what to them
seems the correct way of living.
There is nothing which so refreshes
tired body and mind as half hours,
or, better still, an hours, rest every
afternoon. The mother who is busy

SuhtietX of Shoes.

The question of footwear is ever a
fascinating one; no one ever thinks
of ordering a new pair of shoes with
out seriously considering the toilette
they are to complete, and so engaging
is the appearance of the latest models
that it is easy to conceive the possi-
bility of ordering gown to match the
shoes if necessary.
The newest are the "cothurne' slip
pers. They in no way differ from
the open shoes, except for two little
slides in each side, through which
run soft silk ribbons that cross over
the instep and lace up to about the
height of an ordinary boot. The CO.

Homemade Hair DRYER

A practical home dryer can be made
in the following simple manner: Take

attach an elbow. By placing this little
contrivance over very small blaze of
the gas range, the heaviest hair will dry

This is a most useful and delightful
little workbag, which would make a
capital present. 1t takes next to no
time to make. You will need ss of
yard of silk or satin, 1S inches wide,
and the same amount of white wash
silk to line it, two yards of fine cord
(for the drawstrings), and q of a
yard of 21a-inch-wide brightly y-fowered
ribbon, the ground of which should
match the color of the bag; also a
piece of cardboard from which dou-
BILE circle, 21a inches in diameter, can
be cut. An extra scrap of silk will be
needed to cover this.
For really useful bag, black glazed
silk and a black ribbon, adorned with
vivid silk flowers, are nice.

Monday Evening, January 4.

You can stimulate interest in the
heather wonderfully by inviting them
to come, with all their bag and bag
gage, and pay your society a visit.
Have booths in the room representing
the countries in which the church is
doing missionary work. Let the at
tendants be costumed like the natives,
and all the appointments of the booths
suggest the life of the countries rep
resented. When curiosity is thus
piqued, information about these mis-
sion lands may be circulated by the
help of questions on cards to be passed
around. Write the questions in black
ink, and underneath, in red ink, the
answer to one of the other questions.
1t. will require pretty lively inter
change of cards for each one to find
the answer to his question.
The committee should try to make
this evening as attractive as possible,
and if it can be arranged all the mem
bers should appear in Chinese cos
tune. In the center of the church
| room, fit up booth, covered with a
large Chinese umbrella, and around it
place small tables on which to serve
refreshments. This can be made to
look like Chinese garden. Rice and
rats can be served as follows: Boil
rice until rather stiff and turn it into
cups to cool. After ready to serve
turn upside down in dishes and serve
each dish with candy rat on top. The
rice should be served with cream and
sugar. Also have tea and waters. A
small fee can be charged for refresh
ments to go to missionary purposes
OF course no one but the committee
should know what the rice and rats
is to be, as It would spoil the fun.
nice idea would be to give chopsticks
as souvenirs.
