SLEEVES OF VARIED DESIGN THIS MBoI REALLY SMART
How Use of HandWork May Be Made to Embellish Desirable Piece
 of NeckWear.

There is very smart stock and ja- bot to be seen in a smart shop that suggests pretty means of using handwork to embellish the piece of neckwear. It is simply fashioned of sheer handkerchief linen, the stock showing a turnover collar and the jabot a straight affair about eight or nine inches deep. A fine net has been appliqued on the back of the linen about the entire edge, making an ir- regular design for a border of two inches. The applique was done by following the irregular line of the de- sign and the edge of the jabot with an cver-and-over stitch with white en- broidery cotton. The linen is then cut away and the net design remains. The same process was followed for the turnover part of the collar. A light colored organdie in blue or pink, both so stylish now for neckwear, would be very effective treated thus with white net.

Variety Is as Wide as Even the Most Fastidious Dresser Might Be
 Pleased With.

Sleeves, in a double sense, loom large on the horizon this season. They offer a wide field for the exercise of originality, taste and discretion, with this single eXception-that in the case of the suit the choice is necessarily somewhat limited. The time when a frock was dated by it's sleeve has passed away. The leg O mutton sleeves of the early sos, the straight sleeves that came after those that heralded the opening of the twentieth century, or the one with many puffs which was a feature of the modes that followed, are one and all used by the dressmaker of today. Here a sleeve starts life with the notion that the straight path is also the preferable one, but, forsaking good intentions changes it's mind halfway and flares to triumphant finish Another re- versed the process, but, finding the way of the chartered line little to it's taste, throws breadth of outlook to the winds and seeks the narrow path as it hears the end of its brief life.
 One sleeve is set into a normal arm hole; another droops languidly from some point above the elbow a third, boasting no independent existence, forms part and parcel of the corsage, of which, indeed, it is merely an ex- tension in one particular direction.

A centerpiece seen recently-it must have measured about twenty-eight to thirty inches in diameter-was effectively filled in with these simple stitches in connec- tion with Kensington stitches.
 rose was the motif of the design There were about eighteen of them in groups of two spread around the linen. The petals of the roses and the leaves of the flowers were filled in with very small cross-stitches. For a space measuring one-eighth of an inch be- tween the edge of the leaf and the be- ginning of the cross-stitches, Kensing- ton stitches were placed.

Children's Colds, They Say, Should Be Treated Externally - Internal
 Medicines Arc Harmful.

In our previous advertisements we have published letters from mothers in Kansas City, St. Jo., Joplin, Spring field and other Missouri cities. These ladies agree that internal medicines injure the delicate stomachs of the little folks, and they recommend the use of the external treatment-Vap-O Rub. From a large number of letters from St. Louis women we will give just a few extracts.

 You cannot have too many waists, for they create that new look in your costume where a skirt is worn for many purposes. Then, too, you feel fresh when you change.
