Poor Mans Mushrooms.
Radishes have always been considered
good only to eat raw. Try the following
when mushrooms are at premium: Peel
and slice large radiehes, and when you
put your steak in the pan turn in the
sliced radishes and allow them to cook
in the juice of the steak until quite
brown. Before taking them out put in
generous piece of butter. Season with salt

NEW YORK. June 4.-The Amer

Dress Shields.

Up to two or three years ago there was
nothing to do but tack dress shields care
fully in each waist and remove them
whenever it was necessary to wash either
the shields or the waist. Since that time,
however, there have been a number of
improvements, mostly due to the addi
ton of elastic bands and the use of tiny
safety pins. With the kimono waist came
the kimono shield. and up to the present
season this has been the most popular.
This shield. with Its little waist of lawn
or coarse net laced in the back and fast
ened in front and into which the under
part of the shield is fastened. is held in
place by a shirred elastic band over the
shoulders and narrow piece of elastic
over the arm. 1t is this piece over the
arm to which SO much objection has been
made, for aside from its being unattfac-
tive. 1t seems to draw attention to the
shield. and vet without it the shield in
variably slips. This year came the tango

Sport Hat From Panama.

There was never ny doubt in the
minds of those who follow fashions that
the Canal Zone would soon furnish its
quota of names and designs. il not of
fabrics.
The Panama hat has been a part OF our
apparel for decades. but its fashion has
swung to and fro like pendulum. Now
it promises to be strongly revived.
The Panama canal is open and the en-
tire world is discussing II along with the
Mexican imbroglio-the President does not
like his loyal subjects to use the word
war.
The sketch shows the very smart type
of Panama hat that American girls will
wear when they go a-sporting. which in
this case means the taking of healthy
exercise It will be used for riding, for
tennis. for the boat and for mornings in
the country with white shirt waists and
linen skirts.
The crown is quite high, without dent.
ard the brim is lined with black. There
is a black and white band around the
crown finished without a bow at the SIDE.
You will notice that a mans collar and
an old-fashioned black taffeta cravat is
worn in addition to this hat. Each week
there is an increase in the fashion for
the cravat and the high starched collar.

lars of this shape of double muslin with

Caring for Hairbrushes.

Hair cannot be kept in good condition If
the brushes are allowed to become soiled
by dust and the oily substance found in
the hair. Since too frequent washing is
not to be recommended for hairbrushes
1t is a good plan when giving the hair a
thorough bEushing to pass the COMB
through the brush after every three or
four brushings. wiping the comb on
small cloth 1t is astonishing the guam
tity of dust that will be transferred to the
cloth when the grooming is finished.
After an ordinary using, a brush can be
cleaned by combing it with a coarse
comb, striking the bristles downward on
sheet of paper to loosen particles of
dust and dandruff, and finally wipins
with a piece of bath toweling or any
coarse soft bit of cloth. Some people keep
a whiskbroom for dislodging dust and
soil from a hairbrush after each using
This penetrates the bristles better than
cloth, and is to to be recommended
when it is undesirable to wash the brush
often as in the case of silver or an
ivory mounted hairbrush.
The English method is to clean expen-
sive brushes with dry flour. The flour is
put into the brushes, which are then put
together and the bristles worked to and
fro. Then the flour is removed by beat
ing one brush with the back of the other
on to a newspaper. More flour is put in
If thought necessary and shaken out
until the brush is perfectly clean. Then
the bristles are rubbed with a cloth and
the backs cleaned with polish if silver.
and soap and water if ivory.
Some people claim warm water in
jures the bristles of hairbrushes and pre-
fer to use cold, but / am an advocate of
quite warm water, not SO hot as to soften
the bristles or to affect the glue with
which they are often secured, of course.
but hot enough to give thorough clean
ing.
To wash a hairbrush have weak solu-
ton of ammonia, about one tablespoonful
of the fluid to a pint of warm water. l
do not approve of soap. because it is apt
to make the bristles tender The am
monia will cut any greasy substance in
| the brush and be better than soap. Dip
the brush into the ammonia water. or
rather the bristles, and rub them to and
fro in the hand until clean. or OCCASION

and then in cold water. Never turn a
brush on it's back to dry. because the
water will injure the wood mounting.
Wipe the back of the brush and set the
bristles downward to dry on clean cloth.
where it will get sun and air. To disin-
feet a hairbrush put few drops of car
bolic acid in the rinsing water.
