A Wicker Coat Hanger

The furniture that one may buy in
wicker is increasing in variety every
day. We are used now to dining
room furniture, bedroom furniture
and everything for the living room In
wicker. Now there is a wicker coat
hanger for a hall, says an exchange.
At first glance it looks something
like a big wicker tray, with hooks
around the edge. At a closer glance
the tray turns out to be fitted with a
hook at the side, whereby it is hung
on a peg or hook in the wall, and
the hooks around the edge are hooks
from which to hang coats and hats.

Spotted Crepe de Chine
Dear Miss Doom

Lear MISS OOOA.
In trying to remove a grease spot
with soap and water from green
silk crepe de chine dress l took the
color out, leaving a whitish looking
spot. Can you tell me through the
home page columns how to remedy
this? Gratefully, II. u.
Why didn't you ask my advice
before experimenting? Chloroform
would have removed the spot. You
might try it, anyway. Place clean
blotter underneath, then rub with
the fluid, using a soft cloth for the
purpose. Rubbing with ammonia
water might restore the color, but
| doubt it.

1t is developed in mastic gray velvet,
yards A inches wide being required
for the suit.
AS smart as the design is, its con-
struction is comparatively simple.
The Importance of stitching and
pressing can never be too greatly en-
phasized in attempting a tailored coat
or suit. The lesson deals principally
with the coat illustrated. The skirt
section is cut from an open fold of the
material. The back and sleeve, cut In
one, are carefully arranged on a fold
of the velvet. Other parts of the pat
tern are held on a lengthwise thread.
Now, to make the coat, first pleat
the upper edge of the front, placing
"T'' on small 100" perforations.
Close sleeve seam as notched. Sew
pleated edge of front to back, as
notched. Turn under edge of back on
slot perforation; lap on skirt section
to small 20" perforations, notches
even and sew upper edge of skirt to
front and back as notched. Sew col
lar to neck edge as notched. Close
cuff seam as notched to small %
nerforation, sew to sleeve as notched.
Collar and cuffs of heavy black
corded silk add to the elegance OF
these tailored coats, but the most
fashionable dressmakers are, in the
majority of instances, using buttons
of the dress material to trim their
coats and skirts.
Velveteen is also admirably suited
to the development of this model.

how to keep lima beans for the

them, as otherwise you would be
obliged to put lots of benZoate of

CIVIC ASSOCIATION WORKER
TELLS FRENCH EXPERIENCES

In her charming apartment at the
Gladstone, Eleventh and Pine streets,
Mrs. Imogen B. Oakley cheerfully re-
counted her European experiences, for
she has just returned from France. and
glad she is to be at home again. Accom-
panied by Miss Ella Robb, secretary of
the Civic Club in this city, Mrs. Oakley
sailed for the shores of Brittany early in
July where she spent one happy month,
and then proceeded on to Tours. On her
arrival she was greeted with vague news
of the war, but did not feel unduy
alarmed.
However, the seriousness of the position
for Americans abroad was brought sharp
ly home to her on the following morn
ing. On going out to get some checks
cashed she discovered. ruefully, that not
a soul would cash them. The French
landlady proved a good friend in trouble !;
she Immediately said Madame will stay
as long as she likes and will pay me
next year" Indeed, to stay in Tours was
the only possible thing to do. for all the
trains were used for mobilization pur-
poses, and even had she had the money
Mrs. Oakley could not have left.
The daughter of the late George f. Baer
was in like predicament at Tours, and
was also forced to stay. For two weeks
she had to do without her favorite after

OME-KNITTED COAT
SWEATERS TO MEET
SCARCITY OF TOGS
War May Have Serious
Effect on the Price of Out
of-door Garments for Chill
dren.

| ~ NE of the first considerations for
~ out-of-doors garments for children
is warmth without undue weight
It Is in this particular that the sweater
coat excels, and while 1t is not suitable
for state or festive occasions, 1t is an
admirable garment for play or everyday
wear, and distinctly picturesque into the
bargain.
Today's illustration shows sweater
coat of champagne -colored silk, fastened
with knitted buttons of the same color,
and tied with a sash ending in tassels.
The cap exactly matches the sweater
In color, weave and trimming, as there
is a button on one side and a tassel on
the other.
It is an excellent model, either for pur-
chase or for home manufacture. 1t has
been designed on the most simple lines,
and the sweater was never meant to be
ornate. although 1t sometimes is
1t Is knitted with the regulation stitch,
but the sash prevents It from looking
either plain or severe.
Any one at all skilled in knitting would
find 1t an easy model to copy.
There are several grades of wool that
could be substituted for the silk, and
any color, either light or dark could be
chosen in the place of the champagne
color OF the illustration.
Although 1t is early in the year to
speak of Christmas, the rumor has
started, and keeps on growing, that there
will be a dearth OF toys and paythings
this year.
Some of the toy shops and department
stores that make "a showing of such
things received their supplies from Eu-
rope before the war broke out.
They are probably In the minority. If
the prices go up in proportion to the
scarcity OF the articles 1t will make
rough shedding for many householders.
It Is commonly said that the number
Of children is in reverse ratio to the
worldly goods OF the parents, which may
be the law of compensation manifesting
itself obscurely. But II the prices of toys
are prohibitiye the children must not go
without gifts.
\ gay-colored cap and sweater would
delight the heart of any child, and 1t is
surprising how quickly they reach COM
pletion when they are started and worked
on in the odd moments that otherwise
might pass with nothing to show.
And, Furthermore, knitting Is recon-
mended by physicians as a sedative to
nerves.

The first goldfish, whose name, by

"Of course all that you say is true,

talk about it? Why not forget it?"
Now Dreams partner in the fish
bowl was named Really Truly be-
cause he had such really truly little
short tail! So short it seemed as if it
couldn,t possibly belong to a goldfish.
Dreams tail was large and "spready"
and SO dainty and tilmy that it seemed
at times to have no more substance
