Woman Attempts Suicide

Owing to poor aim Mrs. Walter
Davis, 1T Leroy street, escaped in
jury when she fired a 38-calibre re-
volver in the direction of her body
at $3.50 o'clock Sunday night. The
police department was informed
woman had shot herself, but the chief
on arriving at the scene discovered
that the only damage was powder
burns on the woman's night dress.
Mrs. Davis was in a comotose con-
dition and was removed to the city
hospital. Dependency over the de-
sertion of her husband some weeks
ago is the supposed cause of her at
tempted suicide.

Very pretty shades are made of
ecru linen with wool buttonholing at

To make one of these lamp shades
cut a pattern first from newspaper.
The pattern will not be a perfect circle
with a hole in the middle. but q seq

This will give the steeply sloping

lights may always be obtained, how
ever. At any electricians shop you
can get an attachment to screw into
the socket OF your one electric fixture
and separate wires may be run to two
lights.
a pretty way to light the bed room
is to have sconces with tall candles at
either side of the dresser mirror.
These, in addition to the bed side lamp
with its silk shade, will give a soft
and pleasant llumination-and the
candles need be burned only during
the hour of dressing. If your bed
room is in an apartment and has its
window on a court. better give up
the charming bed side lamp with .ts
shaded glow and have a glaring over
head electric bulb than to trust to
dressing for the street in a dim re-
lisious light. 1t is always easy to tell
the wornen who have dressed in semi
dark apartment bed rooms. when one
meets them out-of-doors on brilliant
l. sunny day. They never have the
spic-span, perfectly groomed look of
women who have dressed in a good
light. Hats never show specks of dust:
suits never show ugly little stains and
spots-in a dim lamp-glow. Details
of the costume look perfectly all right
in the semi-dark room. and pitifuliy
all wrong-out in the glaring sunshine.
1t is most unwise to put the least
makeup on the face in a room lighted
artifcially, when one is going out-of-
doors into the broad daylight. Hang
small mirror against the window
frame of a well-lighted room. Pull
the window shade to the top-and
then put on your face powder. You
will not look so charming-to yourself
in that garish light. as you would
in the darker bed room: but you will
look a lot better to your friends out
in the sunshine.
Pink or mauve lampshades are al
ways prettiest in a bed room. II the
furnishings of the room require blue
lampshades, or lavender ones. these
should be of very thin silk. lined with
rosy-toned silk. The mulberry pink is
the most flattering of all the pinks for

Nothing is so cool as linen, and so
grateful to the touch on hot, humid

linen on the back of the chairs used
to be one of the delightful things
about travelling in Pullmans-before
the war. During the last two years
one has missed these cool head-rests
or deplored the substitution Of
starched cotton squares. But no one
was to blame-linen simply could not
be had except for naval uniforms and
Red Cross nurses aprons and wings of

purposes. Now everybody can buy
