The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1916-10-30

INl UTE a comfortable coach cover "U can be made from eiderdown, A9 which is light enough in
 weight not to be cumbersome and yet is warm enough to keep the baby warm when the breezes of sum- mer. become chilly. There are numerous ways in which to or- nament such a cover. One seen recently was trimmed solely with pink ribbon one inch in width. The ribbon was slightly gathered at both edges and then stitched on. It formed a bow and the middle of the cover proper. N1] HIFFON, Georgette crepe and K all other diaphanous materi- A als, whether they are used for
 gowns or part of costumes of silk or cloth, are usually trimmed with embroideries. There is something pleasingly piquant about bit of em- broidery applied to a delicate, dfa- phanous material. Often when used on these airy fabrics the embroidery is quite heavy, but is confined to a small space. A. great quantity of it would naturally be apt to pull the material out of shape. Gold and black embroid- cry motifs were used on a putty col ored chiffon afternoon gown seen re- gently, and on pale gray crepe gown there were embroideries of silver, gray and blue. A white net evening gown was trimmed with embroideries placed on the skirt to catch up the draperies at the side and on the tiny sleeves.
 
 G7l GU would be surprised to hear
 how often I'm asked what is @ the cause of so-and-so's suc-
 cess," said the assistant editor of a trade monthly. Letters come with that question oftener than with any other. What was the reason for Blanks success in that line of his How was it that Smith pulled ahead And my answer Is usually that it's be- cause Blank is Blank and Smith is Smith. That is to say. the reason for success is you. That's the big, the main reason. Other things contribute, but they can't bring it. It is the kind of man you are, the method you feel i'm pelled to use, the use to which you put your energy and your brain that make you succeed, and all these are just you" This is point of view that has possibilities. You don't need to sit around waiting for opportunitity to knock at the door if the real road to success is yourself You can get right to work. It is entirely up to you.
 l"l ONE men and women are so IhlI blessed that if they close A their eyes they can go to sleep
 at'any moment. Others, how ever, find it difficult. Taking a siesta is an old-fashioned custom, which might be revived with great benefit to number of men and women who rise early in the morning, work hard dur ing the forenoon and by the time two o'clock has arrived feel exhausted. Forty winks" would refresh them wonderfully. Office workers. unfor- tunately, cannot take the needed rest at just this time, but after the days work is over and they have returned home, say.at half-past five, a half hours rest before dinner will do them worldsof good. ID darken the room Is the first aid to slumber in daytime. One woman who is preserving her youth and beauty by indulging in an afternoon siesta each day ties dark blue scarf lightly round her head and over her eyes. She finds it an excel lent method of inducing sleep.
 j% ATCH pockets appear not only
 & on coat suits, but they have forced their way to dainty
 sewing aprons. A very attrac- tive apron can be fashioned of dotted swiss, fine linen or fine lawn. Near the bottom at either side attach oblong pieces of the material to form pockets. Then fill in the space between these upright pockets with one long pocket. Bead the three pieces with valencien- nes. If you have the time, you might embroider a dainty daisy pattern on
