WAISTS FROM WORN FRocks

As long as there is a piece of a fine old dress it can be used on an- other garment, probably only as a col lar and cuff set. When there Is plenty of goods, the whole waist can be made. Sometimes there is just enough to make a waist without much to come and go on in the way of col have the coliarless waist, which can be fixed up very fetching with bead ing at the low round neck; or a ba tiste collar can be added.
 You should look over your stock of old dresses that no longer are useful for whole dress purposes. Select the best parts of three -colors; but one must be quite clever to rningIe sev- eral co1ors to get pleasing results in this manner.
 Notice the collar with it's fide bands and little touches of embroidery The bands are bias folds of crepe, sadded to batiste. Remember always that bias folds give best results at all times Only straight goods can be used in primest effect
 Notice the sleeves, snug yet not too close, prettily fulled at the wrist with closely fitted cuffs. Do make your cuffs with snap fasteners and if they do not fit primly to your wrists, then bone them on the opening with very narrow zigzag collar wire. It is silk covered and invisible.
 A blouse must be blousy, but it must at the waist, insured with gum rib bon run through waists hems, will hold most waists in place. A blouse that fits well around the waist and at the sleeves, can be ever so fluffy on other parts.

THE INDUSTRIAL CONFERENCE

Naturally the whole country is in rerested in the industrial conference between representatives of labor. cap- icA and the public which will open today ar Washington. Ordinarily there would be . widespread concern rela- tive to the deliberations Of such a gathering of delegates. but this is greatly increased at the present time because of the many strikes and the large amount of unrest not only in this but other countries
 Certain threatened trouble has heen held up to await the outcome of this conference Efforts were made to have other strikes delayed but with out avail. but all of these matters will unquestionably get consideration dur ing the session of the conference which will formulate it's own programme of procedure
 What the outcome will be no one can tell That there are ambitious hopes does not mean that they will be re- alized and vet there is every reason why there should result better un- derstanding between capital and la bor- There is at least going to be af- ferded an opportunity for an inter change Of ideas. there is going to be a chance to consider many of the plans which have been presented for dezaing with existing problems and the delegates are going to be able to get first hand information regarding the attitude of the prominent leaders of all interests who will be in attend znce
 IL is certainly to be hoped that the conference will be the means of bringing about the needed relief in the present industrial situation through ou- the country. that it will be a sue c@~s rather than 8 failure

YOUNG GIRLS SUIT.

It takes considerable discrimina tion to choose suits for girls who arc not quite grown up, or for those who are grown, but are still in their teens. It is not half so simple a matter as it seems to express youth by varying the cut and finish of garments enough to take them out of the young woman class and place them in young girl company. Generally in suits this is accomplished by making coats vague as to fit and simple as to line and by following current fashions, as be- comes youth, at a distance. Jersey cloth, serge and duvetyn are the most popular choice for girls suits. Skirts for these suits are noticeably wider than those in vogue for older women and are generally gathered at the waist line. The small turnover collars are effective and youthful.

ELECTION DAY

This is election day which means of course that each and every voter who can Eet to the polls should make it q point to do so in order to insure me best possible town government for the next two years.
 Sight should not be lost of the fa ct that -nasmuch as the present incum- berrs- from selectmen right down through the list, have given the town the high grade service that is so de- st7ole ir administering town affairs, have handled the business before them m such a way as 10 accomplish need cd Improvements through economical operation of the various departments without calling for more taxes and by so doing paved the way for the much desired reduction in taxation. it is the plain duty Of the voters of the town, irrespective of party, to insist by their votes upon their return to office.
 Having secured the businesslike government that is always so much desired in town affairs. don't let il be ~szid that those who have benefited thereby are so lacking in appreciation as to fail 10 retain it. As matter of fact so commendable has been the work Of our town government head ed by Selectmen Bailey and Bushnell that not only every republican but every voter who desires economical and efficient government should be eager 10 register his approval by sup porting their reelection together with the rest Of the ticket
 Every effort should thus be made to =et out the party vote but in addition thereto every voter should recognize the responsibility that rests upon him co look after his own interests. Vote early and vote right Pull the repub- Iczu lever

STORIES OF THE WAR


 (Correspondence of The Associated Press) ).-An entirely new scheme for establishing a reserve army in Ger many in anticipation of some future opportunity to establish German mili- tary power is seen by some German newspapers in a plan they have just discovered and exposed.
 While the scheme is confined to only one regiment and so probably has no sanction from the War Ministry it is an indication, in the opinion of Am erican army officers who for eight months have been studying dem obili- zation of the German forces, of how hard Prussian militarism dies.
 The Lightschiag corps in Westpha- Iia, now the Sixty second Reichswehr (Nationa1 Arn1y) regiment of the Thirty First Reichswehr brigade, has sent out circulars to all men who have served in this volunteer unit since the armistice, urging them to sign a pledge to answer to a call to the colors in the event of general disorder or a new revolution. The Freiheit, the Inde- pendent Socialist organ in Berlin, sug- gests that the men responsible for the scheme really have in mind something more than suppression of disorders, the per then quoting from the circular

 Keeping the baby cool and quiet is one preventive of digestive troubles.
 To remove callous from the palms rub with piece of pumice dipped in a little warm water. Do not rub hard enough to make sore, and after the Urea tment apply office oil.
 A good remedy for corns is to take equal quantities of castor oil and vase line lay it on the corn and tie a piece of soft rag round it every night for a week, then the corn can be picked out by the hand.
 There is something wonderfully beneficial to the skin in the warm bath, andsno one will dispute the fact that it is far more cleansing than a cold one can possibly be. So it is a great beautifier as well, for it opens the pores of the skin and keeps it healthy and clear.

 Chopped celery or finely cut olives mixed with dressing make nice sand wiches for school children.

SUGGESTIONS FOR

TIE HOUSEWIFE
 If a foul is very tough put it into plenty of cold water and cook five or six hours.
 A little red ink put in the rinsins water for pink cotton materials, pre- vents a faded look.
 Scratching matches on the woodwork leaves marks. Remove these with a cut lemon. housewife should never let herself get too tired or a rest will do her no good
 Put a few marbles into the kettle when cooking catsup. They prevent burning.
 Olive oil, or a substitute, applied with a flannel, will preserve black leather shoes.
 Place small piece of gum arabic in the water used to dampen pleats, when pressing.
 Whole wheat bread and butter and a good salad, forms a most wholesome luncheon.
 Use cheese cloth for the pantry win dows. It is more desirable than wire screening.
 Use young carrots, grated raw, oc- casionaily in a simple salad. Nothing is more wholesome.
 Rub curtain poles with hard soap before putting them up. The draperies will slip easily.
 A pin stuck through the cork of a bottle containing poison will prevent a tragic mistake.
 Prunes get a new flavor if a few whole cloves are put into the pan in which they are cooking.
 When oiling the meat grinder or egg beater put a few drops of glycerine in the crevices. This leaves taste in food.
 Bottle blueing sometimes flows too fast from the bottle. Tie four thick nesses of old muslin or cheeseoloth over the neck of the bottle to avoid this.
 Keep your fireless cooker free from odor by putting in piece of charcoal when you put in a dish to be cooked. Leave the charcoal in when cooked dish is removed

PRACTICAL ECONOMY.

Don't throw away your husband's s expensive shirts just because they are worn through by his collar just below the neckband. Mend them this way: Rip off neckhand just back to shoulder seam, then rip shoulder seam a little more than half way and cut the front straight down its entire length
 Raise this front up far>enough to cut orr all worn places, cutting it the exact shape it was before at neck (take off at least one button and buttonhole) and sew it back in place, overcast the long seam neatly, even off the flap tt the bottom, you have new CD shirt with a change in nts looks as the seam is too far back to show when worn

The kitchen should never be without concentrated lye and washing soda. The lye ought to be used once a week to clear away the grease collected on the inside of the waste pipe of the sink.
