Tips From a Trained Nurse.

A trained nurse says one should eat
fruit every day. Fresh fruit is the
best, but canned or steamed will an
swer Eat green vegetables, too, as
often as possible, and at least once a
day. Some of the bulky varieties are
valuable, such as carrots, cabbage, tur-
nips, spinach and parsnips: they con-
tain valuable properties and prevent
overnourishment.
They also act as intestinal brooms
And always eat slowly and masticate
thoroughly; it will supply more nour-
ishment, and cause less indigestion.
And never eat when very tired. ex-
hausted or nervous: better miss a meal
and lie down instead; a few minutes
rest and a little bathing is wonderful
restorative and appetizer.
Sitting in chair or reclining on a
lounge is not the most restful position
though it does ease certain portions OF
the anatomy. But why leave others
strained? If person must stand
rluch, the best rest is obtained by lying
for a few minutes on the back, with
the feet higher than the head. This
eases strain on the overtaxed leg mus
cies and those of the feet also.

Dressing the Bed for Winter.

The more old-fashioned the bed looks
NOWADAYS. the more does 1t conform to
modern, fashionable ideas. The bed OF
our srandmothers has returned and four
posters, testers and valances are the
correct things in exclusive bedrooms.
Even patchwork quilts are being re-
vived, though the modern quilt is not
made of rag-bag scraps in a dizzy, in
tricate tumble of color. Instead, the
patches are cut in uniform size and
shape and are appliqued to the ground
material of the quilt to form a graceful
design.
An overhead tester with curtains hang
ing at the bed-head Is rather oppreS-
sive in summer time, when all the air
possible is a first consideration, but
the winter bedroom is very charming
with its four-poster valanced with
dotted swiss or sheer white muslin and
a tester top or canopy overhead. An
attractive bed of this sort has valance
of cream French damask bordered In a
dainty festoon effect in two shades of
pink.
scallops, Is of pink howered cream
damask with narrow pink cotton gimp
trimming around the scallops. The bed
spread matches tester and valance and

across the foot. Another charming old
fashioned effect is achieved with twin
beds of old colonial pattern. with mas

they serve as good idea for the young
woman who wants some especially

We are quite familiar with turbans
of fur, but this new broad hat in sailor

idea brought over from London by a

Such set might easily be contrived
by any woman who does simple en-

ette may be picked UP for a modest
price and the clubs, spades, hearts and
diamonds embroidered at home. On the
serviettes the symbols are about the
size they are printed on playing cards
on the four corners of the tablecloth
they may be little larger-approxi-
mately the size of quarter dollars. One
of these card party sets will make an
excellent bridge prize. or may be an ac-
ceptable Christmas remembrance for
