THE HOUSEHOLD
Docs a Good Appetite Help?

Indirectly. word came over the
ocean not long ago that in Berlin
there is quite sale for a certain drug
preparation that if taken between
meals successfully allays the cravings
of hunger. The directions on the bot
tie clearly state that the drug is in no
way substitute for food, but merely
pacifier for the robust man or
woman Who, perforce living on short
rations, would feel the cravings of
hunger were not something of the sort
taken artificially to satisfy the appe-
tite.
Well, that is one way to help the
food situation. Somehow the way re-
Gently re- commended by one of the
leading government physicians of
France appeals to us more. This die
tary expert urges people to abstain
vigorously from all between meals
Many French people have habitually
taken a light snack between luncheon
ana dinner. But, says the French doc
tor, this should be abandoned for the
duration of the war. 1t is not SO much
that this between meal consumes food.

petite Ones appetite should be made
as keen as possible. Apparently it
would be better to take somethine TO
sharpen it than to take something to
deaden as the Germans have been
uoIng- Inc reason is quite clear If
you are really hungry you are less

are only little hungry you will de-

You know yourself how it is when
you are camping, off on a hunting
party or on fishing expedition The
none too tender steak broiled by your
camp cook or guide over smoky
wood fire tastes better than fillet
m1gnon and you eat it with the sort
of relish that in itself renders per-
feet your digestion.
Let's remember this. 1t may sound
IKE sophistry-the idea of saving
food in the long run by making our
appetites keen. But when you come
to think of it the idea is right. So
give up between meals and if a half
hour before meal time you are not
keen enough for that meal to relish
war bread then take a stiff walk out
in the open and work up the neces-
Sary enthusiasm for food.

a colorful part in her costume.
EmbroidcrS White Gowns With Jet.
Another touch that she gives white
gown, which is lack ing on an Ameri-
can summer costume, is a bit of jet
embroidery that gives her a chance to
put black velvet streamers on her pic
ture hat and add black shoes and
ockings.
This jet embroidery is not exploited
to a large degree. 1t merely touches
the gown in order to lift it out of the
commonplace, and it is not put on
muslin, but on Georgette crepe and
wolfe. The big picture hat, however,
with its neck-enveloping streamers, is
the millinery touch that We are adopt
ing in our summer resorts, which are
filled to the brim, despite the early
submarine menace. These hats are
of colored felt over here, and the
streamers are of black, green, violet or
Chinese blue velvet ribbon.
The white gown in the sketch was
worn at Deauville. 1t is made of voile
slightly embroidered with jet beads,
and with it goes a picture hat with
black velvet steamers that float
downward to the knees.

1t is not usual for France to wear
white gowns in her city streets, but
she has developed a good deal of in
genuity in making them smart and
attractive at the resorts, to which
thousands of French women went
earlier than usual this year because of
the German guns and the fact that
Paris was proclaimed IN the army
zone in June.
Those in America who have not
been abroad since the war, have no
idea of the iron restraints that are put
upon civilians of towns in the war
zone. To get in or to get out is no
easy matter. 1t was difficult enough
to enter or to leave Paris when 1 was
there, the first year of the war, but the
tension has increased as the years sue
ceeded each other, and now that the
authorities have put the city in the
army zone, one is under strict mill
tary law.
The French women themselves are
amused at the fact that they are con-
sidered to have taken quite a journey
when they go to the outer walls and
backi 1t is only natural therefore,
that they should go to that unmolested
part of France which is not under
military regulations and in which they
can live their lives in healthy way.
Adopting American White Costume.
IL Is at tIleSV PidSCo, tIiClC lolC, Tia l
the American buyers are looking for
the real French gowns, and 1t is here
that they see the French women
adopting the American idea of wear
ing thin white gowns during the heat
of the day.
Yet, somehow, the gowns do not
look as much a part of summer as
they do in America. They have adj
ditions that we omit, such as the big
picture hats with colored streamers
and the co1ored shoes and stockings.
The French woman has also learned
to carry an umbrella and parasol in
the American way, and she is meeting,
in a sensible manner, the fact that she
must walk and cannot ride. Now she
likes her sunshade very much and
