SISTER JULIE.

Of the many heroines who have won fame by their bravery and devo- tion in this war not the least is Sis ter Julie, the French nun whose name is now a household word in every part of France. Sister Julie lived at Gerbervillier, a town in the Vosges, where the tide of war has ebbed back and forth and has left the village a wreck. Sister Julie wears the cross of the Legion of Honor, conferred upon her by dele gation of distinguished Frenchmen who visited Gerbervillier for that purpose, and among them were Pres ident Poincare and the presidents of the senate and chamber of deputies. When the Germans invaded Gerber villier and fired a large part of the town Sister Julie, alone and unarmed. faced the invaders, and by the power of her personality forced them to leave untouched the hospital contain ing a number of wounded soldiers and civilians. When they attempted
 to seize the food destined for the pa tients, Sister Julie, armed with a carving knife, drove away battalion of Teutons. Her valor so impressed the Germans that they abandoned their purpose.

NUTRITIOUS LUNCH.

s'You must make up your mind to give upe starchy foods, sugar, rich sauces, gravies, and of course all al- coholic liquor. Eat plenty of green vegetables without butter, oil, cream, or milk-and fresh fruit, :" says Farm and Preside.
 Start the day with a glass of lem onade without sugar. For breakfast eat one strip of bacon or a little ham with dry toast or dry roll without butter, and tea or coffee without sug- ar or cream.
 For lunch eat a little fruit-ap- pie, orange, peach or pear. If you have been accustomed to hearty lunch, taper off gradually to the fruit lunch by having a cupful of clear broth without fat Bread must be dry or stale.
 ''For dinner eat lightly of beef, mutton, or fish (no pork); but satisfy your appetite with vegetables and a slice of bran bread. If you must drink coffee, drink it without cream or sugar.
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1918-05-04
PUT SUITS AWAY CLEAN IN
 BOXES

A good way to protect suits from the moths is to secure them in paste board boxes such as you can buy from the tailor or the tailor's supply store. The suits should be packed away in these boxes before the moths begin to fly and then every open crack should be pasted together by means of strips of gummed paper, such as can be bought in rolls for a very small price. The tailor boxes may be kept on hand from year to year for this purpose.
 This is, of course the time of the year when it is necessary to take pre- cautions against moths. And perhaps the greatest precaution that we should take is the precaution of being on time. If we would really keep moths from doing their destructive work, we must begin before they get a chance to begin. That is, we must put the clothes they like away before they can lay the eggs that hatch out into the destructive little worms that eat our clothes,
 And the clothes, when we put them away, must be clean. If they are really clean, that means there are no moth eggs in them, and it also means that there is likelihood of moth eggs for moths seem to prefer soiled clothes to clean ones.
 So have furs and suits cleaned be- fore packing them away for the sum- mer. And have such things as may be thus treated sent to the laundry Winter underwear, if there is any ir your family, skating stockings, wooler bath robes and sweaters should be washed, dried and wrapped securely in paper before putting them away If you pack your things in tar or ced- ar bags, put them in the bags directly after cleaning.
 | It is not a difficult matter to wasf woolen articles. Make a warm soap suds. A good way is to place half 2 cake of white soap in a strong jelly tumbler or tin cup under the hot fau- cet while filling the tub. There vii surely be a good suds. Then wasf the warment thoroughly, being surt not to rub the soap directly on it more than is absolute necessary. Rinse il water in which there is a little soap Dry thoroughly, not too slowly, bu not in hot sun or by hot fire. Sweat CTS should be dried by laying then on a folded sheet or big bath towel
 on a bed, so that the sweaters are no pulled out of shape in the drying. Oc casionally change their position t help all parts to dry evenly.
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1918-05-04

Come here, Claire, I've something to show you," Madame called to me as I passed through the studio on my way to join Julie, who had gone up- stairs for tea.
 I crossed to the other end of the room, and there, lying in state across the long refectory table, were four of the dearest httle-girl frocks imagina- ble!
 T just had to rave about these to some one! Aren't they lovely? I de- signed them for Frances Philips, my little me-child-you remember her, don't you? Examine them and see how beautifully they are made. Miss Wesley has certainly taken great pains with the sewing.''
 Having a decided weakness for blue, I picked up the charming frock of French blue crepe de chine. It was cut in one piece, sleeves and all, and buttoned at the back. Of course, it was entirely hand made, and was effectively trimmed with red worsted embroidery
 The rounded neckline was scalloped and buttonhole-stitched, and the sleeves were trimmed to correspond. The front and black, about the neck, were hand tucked, and an embroider- ed motif ornamented the frock slight ly above the normal waistline. That little model will be nice for Frances when she wants to change her play frock for something more | dressy," was Madame's answer when remarked that the blue frock was very elegant looking.
 "A crepe de chine frock of this type | is very practical. The silk is of an unusually heavy quality, and will wash as successfully as linen or cot l ton. The wool embroidery will also stand 'tubbing,' What do you think of her party dress?"
 i It was a dainty, frilly affair of white French organdie of the finest quality. The little, short-wasted bodice was a mass of tiny tucks and real Val. in- sertion. The square neckline was out lined with lace edging, and the short sleeves had cuffs of tucks and lace.
 The full skirt was shirred several times at the top. and row upon row of tucks, insertion and lace frills trimmed the skirt. The sash was formed of three rows of narrow gross grain ribbon in pale blue, placed about an inch apart. The ends were tied in small bows at the centre back.
 The frock was so exquisitely dainty that I wondered if it would really stand laundering, but Madame assur- ed me that there wasn't a thing on it that would be any the worse for a Wetting.
 Frances Phillips has yellow curls and peach blow complexion, and so, ! of course, had to have a frock of pale pink linen. It was an adorable little dress-not too fussy for morning wear, yet quite elaborate enough for afternoon.

CATCHING COLD.

If you find that you catch cold very easily when you are tired or a bit run down, you should take extra care of yourself at such times. Do not recklessly expose yourself when you are fatigued. It is far wiser to relinquish any engagements you may have made for the evening if you come home all tired out. It is bet ter to give up everything, take a hot bath, and go to bed early for a long nights sleep when you are feeling physically exhausted. Going out for a good time when you are in this con- dition only leaves you open to in- lection or to. chill.

CHILD'S COUGH.

There is danger if child continues to cough after the whooping cough The lungs should be examined by a competent physician and remedies prescribed and such local treatment be administered as will clear up the condition. Chronic bronchitis some times develops, and in connection with undue exposure the foundation for later tuberculosis may be laid.

MADONNA CAPE.

Capes have evidently made good, for they are shown now in all the better shops and not a few are seen worn by we'll dressed women. It is a draped style with arm hole or wide sleeve in one side only. The other side falls loosely or can be caught up with a snap fastener to form an opening for the hand. The straight hanging styles are perhaps best either with or without body part or vestee. Some have merely extended collar ends or tabls that cross and fasten around the waist

We all want to do our "bit, hence, husband your strength for all the patriotic duties. from food con- servation to Red Cross work. Don't lift a gallon of molasses, but keep the syrup pitcher filled and use from that. Don't cross the floor unneces- sarily, but keep spoon in everything salt, soda, washing powder. Keep a measuring cup in different kinds of flour, meal and cereals. Keep your utensils for working near your place for cooking, also some near the sink, and also the stove. Try to plan your work to save strength, time and steps. steps.

HEADACHES.

Headaches caused by worry or ex- haustion may be relieved by very simple means. If possible, put on loose clothing, loosen your hair and supply yourself with a bowl of hot water and several towels. Wet the towels in the hot water and apply back of the ears and to the base of the brain. Change these often and you will soon find relief. A hot foot bath hastens the process.
