Helpful Ideas.

Buy a yard of cambria, cut into
squares and turn tiny hem around
each for the chlldren's handkerchief.
Make neat apron out of enamel
cloth such as we use for table covering.
and sew tape on for strings and bind
with tape These aprons can easily be
wiped off and kept clean, and bit can
be stitched on also Even an apron of
this kind is nice to put on child who
Is continually soiling cotton clothing.
Much washing is saved. Two aprons
could be made from three-quarters of a
yard of oilcloth and the tape cost,
nearly nothing.
Save the colored picture parts Of our
Sunday papers each week, and when n
child is Ill or convalesclng 1t will fur
nish quite an entertainment to II. II
Is also well to put away the "woman's
section" for our own future reference
as we can always find what we want
right there.

AIRPLANE ROUTE TO SWEDEN
Trelleborg and Sassnitz TO Be the Ter
mini of the Proposed Line Con-
Meeting With Germany.

The following bulletin on Trelleborg
and Sassnitz, the termini of the pro-
posed Swedish German airplane route,
which assumes special significance in
the light of recent developments in
the diplomatic relations betwetS Ger
many and Sweden, has been issued by
National Geographic society.
Between Trelleborg, the most south
erly town in the Kingdom of Sweden,
and SasSnitz, summer resort on the
northeastern shore of the German
island of Rugen, express steamers in
times of peace make regular trips
across this arm of the Baltic in four
hours. This is the chief water link In
the 24-hour express service between
Stockholm and Berlin. Neither town
would be of any Importance were it not
for the fact that they are the termini
of this steamer service.
Trelleborg is quaint old town Of
some 10000 inhabitants lying 20 miles
southeast of Malmo capital of Skane,
teh most populous province in all Swe-
den. 1t is only 16 miles from Malmo
to the Danish capital, Copenhagen.
Sassnitz is one Of several popular
seaside resorts on the Island of Rugen.
the largest insular possession of Ger
many, having an area about equal to
that of Cape Cod. Only about $500
people make Sassnitz their permanent
home, but duri>g the bathing season In
times Of peace the village is visited
annually by more than 10000 pleasure
seekers.
The water trip from TrellebOrg to
Sassnitz is 60 miles. Thus the rail-
and-steamer distance between Stock.
holm and Berlin Is Ais miles.

the suggestions already made at the
now historic meeting of dressmakers,
manufacturers, retailers, fashion writ

of the speakers, at that meeting, drew
attention to the fact, that though there

 Don't stay gray! Try it! No one can possible tell that you darkened your hair, as it does it so naturally and evenly You dampen sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at time; by morning the gray hair disappears, and after another ap- plication or two, your hair becomes beautifully dark, glossy and attractive. Wyeths Sage and Sulphur Com pound is delightful toilet requisite for those who desire dark hair and a youthful appearance It is not in- tended for the cure, mitigation or pre- vention of disease.
