Young in the Washington Star.
1t is specified that it must be SIM
ply made, with enough material for
the necessary full skirt, but very lit
tie left for the bodice. And so, with
this verbal diagram to go by, we
have evolved the sketch.
1t may readily be seen that very
peasant bodice made with shoulder
straps, corded at high waist line and
finished with a narrow frill The open
front edges are caught together with
little bows, or may be laced in true
peasant style
Since the requirements include
semievening purposes, the guimpe is
long-sleeyed, though their length, of
course, is optional. 1t is made of
white chiffon softly surpliced over
the bust and finished around the neck
with ruffle of itself The sleeves are
shirred at the wrists and trimmed
with ruffies
The gathered skirt is cut out in
deep scallops at the foot and finished
with taffeta, covered cording or mar
row, fat bias folds. The point be-
tween scallops is trimmed with a rose
and the spaces below are filled in
with lace gathered at the top.
l hope the design will prove salts
factory. 1t is one that will work out
prettily in almost any of the delicate
evening shades.

BEST WAY TO REDUCE FLESH
Safety Must Be Considered, as Well
as Most Efficient Way of Renov-
ing Adipose Tissue.

The quickest and safest way to re-
duce flesh is to adopt a we1l-balanced
diet that excludes all carbonaceous
foods. Starch, sugar, oil and alcohol
should be put aside by a fat person.
To set an appetizing table, yet omit
these, is not SO difficult as may appear,
for there remain all kinds of meat ex-
cepting pork, all game, all sea food, all
fruit except bananas. majority of sal
ads and green vegetables-in fact all
vegetables except potatoes, corn, dried
beans and lentils. From this list it is
easy to compose variety of tempting
menus. Eggs also may be eaten in
moderation, and the amount of oil
used in salad dressing is not enough
to be fattening.
Strip, gravy, milk, bread, potatoes,
cereals, sweets and alcohol beverages
are to be avoided. Bar these rigorous
ly from the table and within month
you will begin to lose flesh.
1t is a simple matter to eliminate
from your diet all foods that are ex-
cessively fat-producing. 1t is a treat
ment that cannot fail to reduce your
flesh if you adhere to it, and if you
compose your menus with care and in
telligence you will be surprised to note
how little you will miss these forbid
den foods after brief time.
When you have attained the weight
you desire it is not necessary to follow
the diet quite SO closely. Nevertheless
you should be on your guard against
fat-producing foods, for if it is your
tendency to be corpulent all such food
will be fatal to your figure.

The lace upon the cap and jacket need
not match in design or even in kind
if scraps" are being used, but the
lace upon both articles should be of
the same color. This matching can be
obtained by dipping the too pale lace

sixteenth inning, and consequently
hubby was very late for dinner.
His wife greeted him with a smile,
