Kitchen Clothes.

Many women adept in selecting
street. afternoon. or evening clothes
| fall short In the matter OF choosing
suitable garments for wear in the
kitchen. They think torn. soiled. shirt
waists, half worn. greasy skirts and
buttonless. down-at -the-heel boots
good enough for the kitchen or they
wear the cheap. ugly frocks and aprons
that are sold in numberless thousands.
They look like slovens: or like scare
crows. There is no excuse.
y Unless laundry work or scrubbink Is
to be done. there ii no reason why
working clothes should not be as pret-
ty as other clothes. This does not meap n
as expensive. but prettier materials can
be bought for the same money. II
women will search the wash goods
counters they will find a bewildering
array of pretty prints, ginghams, linens
crepes. batistes and lawns. all low in
price, and many. suitable for house
wear.
pale pink. blue or lavender dress
is much more to be desired than an
ugly dark one. Trimmed with bits of
moderately priced lace, II can be made
to look far removed from the tiresome
wrapper or house dress of coarse ma
terial and outlandish fashion. The same
with aprons. Why homely materials
when there are SO many light checks
ard figured cloths that can be made
into bungalow aprons or jaunty break
fast. afternoon, or tea aprons?
Women-young women especially
should see that their house dresses and
aprons are fresh and good to look at
Light-colored clths are just as easy
to launder as dark, and they have the
added advantage of looking pretty aft
er ironing. 1t pays to look fresh. crisp
and clean when engaged in household
duties.-Florence Haines-Reed, in the
November Mothers Magazine.

When Pink Turns GRAY.

Have you little pile of discarded
underwear and blouses in one end Of
a bureau drawer-clothes discarded
because they have lost their once pink
complexion and are now a disconso-
late grayish-yellow heap?
If you have such things take heart.
The blouse that through careless
washing or sun or perspiration has
turned yellow can be made pink again.
The nightgown or petticoat. camisole
or other piece of underlinen, can be
restored to its original pinkness.
More than that: a white garment
that has grown yellow, because Of the
water, perhaps, with which 1t is nee
essarily washed-a surprisingly large
amount of. water has a yellow tinge-
can be dipped and made pink to cover
the yellowness.
Now there are several ways of
coloring white things pink.
One way is to buy a package of red
dye and use a very little of it we'll
diluted with water. Dip the thing
to be pinked into this. and if it is not
dark enough, add more. dye. Vet it
dry and iron it and, It will be ready
to wear. OF course this color easily
applied. easily comes out, so after
few washings the dipping must be re.
the very next wash
ing will take it all out. But it is no
more trouble to use than bluing water.
Then there are special colored pow
ders for the purpose that are dissolved
in water to be used like bluing. These
powders come in most Of the popular
light shades-tan and lavender, blue
and pink.

GIRLS In DEMAND.

Who says that boy babies are more
welcome than girls?
Don't you believe it.
Perhaps there are some proud par
ents who feel thrill of pride at the
thought that their first born was a
son to carry on the name of the fam
lily, but there are just as many par
ents who want little daughters more
than they do little sons. In fact one
might easily believe that girls are
more in demand than boys from the
fact that managers of founding
homes and orphan asylums will al
most always tell you that for pur-
poses of adoption little girls are in
much greater demand than boys.
Only last Wednesday ffty-fve
foundlings, ranging from one to four
years, were sent from New York to
new-found homes in Minnesota and
the Dakotas. OF these forty-four
were girls and only eleven were boys.
That is doing pretty well for world
that is so often said to show favorit-
ism for the boys, isn't it?
If you are one of the brigade who
borrow trouble here is something new
to worry about. Champagne will be
so high priced that it will be
as good as impossible to have it. The
reason, of course, is because the war
now raging is taking the wine max
ing males of Champagne away to the
war, and since champagne is not it
self till it is ten years old we will not
feel the effects of this lean year in
the wine business till 1925. Perhaps
modern invcntivcness will be able to
get around - difficulty some way.

SUDDEN DEATH
Caused by Disease of the Kidneys.

The close connection which exists be-
tween the heart and the kidneys is we'll
known nowadays. AS soon as kidneys
are diseased, arterial tension is in
creased and the heart functions are at
tackled. When the kidneys no longer
pour forth waste, uremic poisoning oc-
ours. and the person dies and the cause
is often given as heart disease, or dis
ease OF brain or lungs.
1t Is good insurance against such a
risk to send 10 cents for a sample

WITH BITS OF FUR.

Have you any odds and ends Of fur
hidden away in trunk or chest? And II
you have, are you planning to use them
to advantage this year?
It is a year when fur trimmings will
be more in evidence than ever before,
perhaps. And so you can use any small
pieces of fur you may be fortunate
enough to possess.
To begin with. remember that q coat
with fur collar and cuffs can be made to
utilize some of your old fur. Perhaps
you have a fur collar that contains
enough good fur for the coat trimmings
or perhaps a collar and mum set pieced
together would give you the needed
amount. Anyway, II you decide to have
such a coat made. take your fur pieces
to tailor and let him give his opinion
on them.
Big pieces of fur in good condition are
needed for a collar and cuff set for a
coat. But all the smaller pieces can be
used, too
Afternoon frocks of many materials
can be charmingly trimmed with fur. In
any shape. Bands of fur at the wrists.
and fur bands edging the collar of
frock are pretty. Bands Of fur on the
skirt. when there is enough fur for this
purpose, can also be used.
Then there are muffs Of velvet that can
be trimmed with fur. 1t is possible to
get a pattern for a mum and make 1t
yourself. You can also buy a mum lining
and padding already made for a small
price, and with this as a foundation and
pattern as guide you can really make
very lovely muff. Remember in cut
ting fur to cut it on the wrong side with
very sharp knife. cutting just through
the skin SO that none of the hairs will
be cut If not necessary.
Then there are little collars Of various
sorts. There is the fur band from three
to five inches wide with lining OF silk
and a ruching of pleated ribbon or folded
silk or satin around the edges. There is
the velvet collar, to match velvet
muff, trimmed with fur bands
Tiny bits Of fur can be used for but
tons and other little trimmings. Buttons
of fur on an afternoon frock of sheer.
soft fabric are charming. and a little
rosette of fur on lace boudoir cap is
also most attractive.

At the opera there is a greater display
of Jewels and greater brilliance and
splendor Of attire. One must be conspicu-
ously dressed indeed to emerge from the
glitter of color that one generally finds
in the boxes.
The gown intended for dancing wear. of
course, is not suitable in design for the
opera gown, for the simple reason that
the dancing gown nowadays focuses the
interest on the skirt. while with the opera
gown the bodice is the important feature.
