The best way to sleep is on the
right side. the head only slightly
turned on the pillow. II one sleeps
on the left side, heart strain is apt
to be produced, but on the right
side there is no important organ to
be disturbed
The position one sleeps in is only
after all, a matter Of habit. and if
you have contracted bad habits in
this respect, correct them at once
if you would desire the full benefit
Of your sleep.
The face during ones sleep should
be free to the air. not covered al
most entirely by the linen of the
pillow. Give the face a chance to
breathe in the air
If you belong to the class of poor
sleepers-as a great many women
do-there is something the matter
and it is up to you to discover what
the matter is. To sleep in the right
way means that your nights res'
should be passed in state of
pleasant Inconsistencies, from
which you awake completely rested
and ready to get up. There is no
such thing As that tired feeling to
the woman who rests as she should.
And there is no reason why all
women should not rest comfortably
during the entire night. It all de
ponds on the way she sleeps wheth-
er or not she will be rested.
II you want 1.-the, straight fig
ure, with head we'll poised learn to
sleep without pillow Never throw
your arms above your head, for that
tends to weaken the heart. Anoth
er position equally harmful to rest
and beauty is the bad habit con-
tracted by many women of sleeping
flat on the back. No doubt this is
comfortable, but it is ruin to ones
digestion. Also bad dreams are pro
duced by sleeping in this position,
for once ones digestion is disturbed
then come a host of bad dreams.

STYLES FOR YOUNGER GIRLS.

The debutante's clothes are es-
pecially lovely this year because of
the lace used, and the flounces and
flowers. The broad girdles too,
give pretty look to the girl whose
figure is immature and sirlish.
Sleeveless evening gowns are quite
fashionable for the younger girls
but there is often a little trsnspar
ent cap sleeve, or wide lace, that
falls over the shoulder and down
over the arms bit.
The pale blues. green's and pinks
are used TO make party dresses.
There are not so many bright colors
and though some shades OF green
are seen, they are not the bright
emerald sort; those We're reserved
for the older ball dresses. The tat
fetas or satin often makes the centre
part of the gown. while a lace ruff
file peeps below and the shoulders
are softly draped with it.

cANOY.LikE BUTTONS.

the bonbon counters, for most Of
them resemble the hard candies one
sees there. Buttons seem to be
round only occasionally.
Square buttons are quite the fash

with a gouge cut out Of them and

A MATTRESS COVER.

A mattress cover which buttons
on the mattress and can be easily
removed for washing is a great
saving to the mattress, keeping it
clean an indefinite length Of time.
To make the cover take two
pieces calico or holland three inches
larger in every direction than the
mattress.
This extra size is to allow fo-
space that viii be taken up by the
thickness OF the mattress. Seam
the two pieces together along the
sides and one end, and finish off
the other end with a hem and but
tons and buttonholes.
The buttons and buttonnoles may,
however, be omitted, and the mat
tress sewn into The case if pre-
ferred. In that case the making
OF the work will take less time, but
the result will be equally neat.
