Myriad Uses FOR the Nook

A HOOK placed outside OF the bath
room window is very convenient
for the suspension of articles and
brushes used in the bathroom.
A little hook placed in the frame
work of the front door affords a con-
venient resting place for the mail box
and door keys AS one leaves the
house or apartment the key can be
slipped into glove or purse. and when
one returns it can be rehung.
The telephone book and pad for
writing memorandums of numbers are
in reader access If suspended near
the telephone,
II any article Is always in the way
or never seems to have place the
hest way to solve the problem is to
hang II up For instance. even those
patterns that persist in littering up the
sewing room would be much less trou-
BILE if slipped into a bag and hung on
hook.
Only as you study your own needs
can you realize what service hook
will render you.
The mop handle can be suspended
without any trouble by inserting a lit
tie looped screw at the top or by tying
a piece of string in the groove made
in the handle for this special purpose.
When the kitchen is very crowded
cup hooks screwed along the side or
the ends OF tho kitchen table afford
handy places on which to hang the

One particularly attractive flChu
was of white net in surplice style, with
the edges showing a fiat box plating.
There was n wired collar Of black tulle.
with one thickness of white next the
neck. This collar was in medici style,
and there was a strap of black velvet
around tho front, which made it de-
sirable for the person who does not al
ways care for the open throat in her
collars.
For wear with the severe morning
blouse of heavy silk or Grape there is
a folded Cravat of satin ribbon, in
black or any Of the modish colors,
which ends in front in a fourin- hand
knot and supports a thick outstanding
ruChe. This does not quite meet in
front and is higher in the back.
II you have a blouse that seems to
have lost all its usefulness look it
over, mend any rips, cleanse it and
wear it over a guimpe of net with a
pretty collar or frill and you will find
IL giving good service under the tai
lored suit or heavy coat.
Net fiouncing makes n gulmpe which
is easy to fashion and attractive, a bit
of the edge being used for the modified
sailor collar. The guimpe has the
edges crossed in surplice style. The
back of the guimpe may be of net in a
heavier mesh. Some seamstresses find
that binding ribbon makes a better
finish at the arm sizes than the bias
band of net.

becoming that it is destined to re-
main in favor during the spring and

Women are keenly appreciative OF
its possibilities. 1t has the power to
transform a plain frock into cos
tune quite suitable for the home din

It is offered in countless styles with
frills that soften and fluff the person
who needs such establishment or Sc
verely plain and fiat and neat to suit
the wearer who clings consistently to
the tailor made effect in all her clothes.
Most exacting prices are asked in the
exclusive shops for these alluring neck
nxings, and those who have the gener-
Gus dress allowance TO allow them to
buy without much thinking never
count the cost of the articles which
mean so much in the ensemble.
But very many of us have to think
about everything We buy and plan for
the present and the future at the same
time. 1t is for us to prove ourselves
capable of reproducing the daintness,
which is so desirable at minimum of
expense. One can buy fundamental
patterns which make it possible to add
all manner of embellishments to suit
ones fancy
There is the necessity for nicely Of
fit in the guimpes and fchus or the
allurement is greatly discounted.

DARIS has been turning attention to
- the making of dainty little watch
es in various ingenious ways, and the
smart woman can now be studded with
little timepieces if she wishes. An ex-
uuisite example of what can be done is
a square pendant set in single line OF
sapphires, with an outer rim or small
brilliants. The pendant itself is OF

The most serious drawback TO this

that by no possible means could the
wearer ever see the time, and any one
else would have to approach within
about four inches of her chin before
Il could be seen, either. Another

USEFUL FLOWER HOLDERS.

'NHE flower holders that have tho
most beauty are not necessarily
the most expensive. Fish bowls make
admirable flower holders. SO do the
big pressed glass baskets. Sometimes
their handles are wound with velvet
ribbon, in some pale shade, which is
tied in a loose, foppy bow at the top
Of the handle.
The Japanese metal flower holders
need no covering. They are delight
full and add to the appearance of the
flowers. The big frogs. with half a
dozen holes in their backs, are es-
pecially interesting. These are best
used with the spring bulb fowers-ths
n a rcissus and the daffodii
