One Woman to Another
BY Frances Moore

When / went home for Christmas
last year, / found the biggest sur
prise of my life. Instead of fasci-
mating everybody, as I thought to
do, people left me unnoticed. And I
just couldn't understand, until
mother explained 1t.
Frances" she said, the day after
the dance, Il don't know whether
you're aware of the fact, but you
noticed folks avoid you. Now. don't
fuss Use the Amolin you'll find on
your dressing table. 1t will destroy
the odors almost instantly"
If 1 hadn't had proof that some
thing was the matter with me that
evening, L wouldn't have believed
mother. But 1 thought. And j re-
membered similar cases when men
didn't seem eager for my company.
/ hesitated no longer. l used Amo-
lin.
Did it help? Why, it just made
a different girl of me. l felt better.
more confident of myself. The
odors vanished. And now at parties
and dances-well, my program is
always too full.
Amolin is called the personal de-
odorant powder. It's unscented,
contains no talcum and is abSo-
lutely harmless. 1t has many inti-
mate uses and is antiseptic with

qualities. All drug and department

OflnfpreSt TO Women
SPRING FROCKS OF FINE MUSLIN.
BY ANNE RITTENHOUSE.
i Cnrresnondence of The Star.

Special Correspondence of The Star.
NEW YORK, February 22.-When
cotton becomes difficult to get and
expensive to purchase the world
makes fine muslin a precious fabric.
We never do without things because
they are costly. We desire them more
and more.
Unbleached muslin, for instance, has
been used by the foremost French de-
signers as lining for Jackets and by
American designers for frocks for
children; probably this never would
have happened if unbleached muslin
had remained at it's low price, but 1t
became costly, and therefore, desira-
BILE.
This truth is not put down to the
fact that the world is SO capricious
in its eXtravagances that it cares only
for materials that are held high. 1t
really means that whatever becomes
than that which is common.
When q raw material becomes cost
ly it's price has been fixed by its
rarity, and if the world did not desire
that which was out of a rut II would
be a very dull and deadly world IN
which to live. we would all exist on
the same scale as the common garden
vegetable. 1t is the f1uctuating scale
that makes life spicy. If everything
had it's limitations and all our de-
sires and actions and activities were
set by a time clock and lived accord :
ing to schedule, death really would
lose its sting.

The Incoming of Muslin.

Those who stand on the watch tow
ers or those who have such sensitive
feelings that they can catch the ap-
proach of new thing were quite
sure that several weaves of muslin
would come into fashion as soon as
cotton became most desira Bile article
of commerce. One knew, you see, that
cotton was getting expensive before
America went into the war If the
prices of bed linen and towels were
indicators.
The civilized world clothed itself in
silk with such rapidity two years ago
that the onlookers realized that GER
tain social situations were reversed in
the world of raw materials, The ladies
of Crawford could not have understood
the silk stockings, underciothing and
frocks of the average working girl,
because these ladies lived in a time
when silk was in the possession of the
rich and socially well placed, who as
pired to the high dignity of dressing.
There were no social qualifications
behind silk during the last few years
1t was worn by all because ii could be
bought plentifulIy. 1t was cheaper
than cotton. 1t was urged upon US
bytthose who preached conservation.
Once upon a time white muslin was
the traditional fabric for youth. Mid
die age also wore 1t with more or less
happy result. But the years have
done away with this tradition, and
only now and then, here and there, do
we see the white muslin gown with
its colored sash.
It was worn by the most fashionable
women of New York during the first
year of the war. and such ultra res
taurants as the Ritz Palm Court were
filed at the noon hour on hot days
with rich and well dressed war work
ers in white muslin and dotted swiss
frocks, with a blue. pink or black sash

Farmer Browns Boy Has a
Glad Surprise.

Farmer Browns Boy had an errand
which took him far from home. He
harnessed the horse to a sleigh and
1t happened that his errand took him
in tho direction of tao farm where
Bowser the Hound had been taken
such good care of and where Reddy
Fox had that very day caught the fat
hen. Farmer Browns Boy was not
thinking of Bowser. You see he had
visited most of the farms in that d.
rection looking for Bowser and had
found no trace of him.
1t was beautiful day to be sleigh
ing and Farmer Browns Boy was
whistling merrily, for there is moth
ing he enjoys more than sleigh ride
He had almost reached the place he
had started for when way off across
the fields to his right he heard dog.
Now Farmer Browns Boy enjoys
listening to the sound of hound
chasing a fox. There is something
about it which stirs the blood. He
stopped whistling and he stopped the
horse in order that he might listen
better.
At first that sound was very, very
faint, but as Farmer Browns Boy
listened ii grew clearer and clearer
Suddenly Farmer Browns Boy ieaped
cried. las sure as I live that's good
old Bowser! I would know that voice
among a Million
He leaped from the sleigh and tied
the horse. Then he climbed over the
fence and began to run across the
snow-covered fields. He could tell
from the sound in what direction
Bowser was running. He could tell
from the appearance of the country
where Reddy Fox would be likely to
lead Bowser, and he ran for a place
which he felt sure Reddy would be
likely to pass.
Louder and louder sounded the great
er ran Farmer Browns Boy to reach
that place before Bowser should
pass. The louder that great voice
sounded the more absolutely certain
Farmer Browns Boy became that 1t
was the voice of Bowser. and a great
joy filled his heart. AT last he reach
ed an old road. He felt certain that
Reddy would follow that road. So he
hid behind an old stone wall on the
edge of it.
