HINTS

Winter. when you aren't swimming
or motoring with skin exposed for
the sun to do its worst, is the time TO
clear up your complexion.
Make it just what you want 1t 10
be. Get rid of every little blemish
which threatens to be a blackhead or
a freckle.
If the blackheads haven't much
of a start you can effectively combat
them by washing your face well eve-
nings with a solution of green soap
and hot water, then r1nslng II
thoroughly and applying cold cream
with a light touch
There are several solutions you
can make at home which are helpful
in this connection.
Mix a dram of powdered sulphur
a dram of ~glycerin, 1-2 pint of rose
water, 2 drains of spirits of camphor'
Put this wash on the face at night
! and let it remain until morning when
it should be washed off with a solu-
ton of green soap and warm water
Another coed lotion for blackhead:
can be made of 2 ounces of alcohol
1 ounce of rose water, 1 teaspoon OF
boracfc acid.
This should be wiped over the face
with a piece Of cotton at night aftei
the green soap bath.
And if during the summer you've
neglected your brows and lashes
use a little vaseline on them ever,
night. Then brush them into shapt
with a clever little brow or lasl
brush. Vaseline is excellent for pro
noting a growth of soft, glossy hair

The Double standardv

Perhaps she will quote for you
this from Edna st. Vincent Millay:
Il would indeed that love were long

And vows were not so brittle as

But so IL is. and Nature has con-
trived
To struggle on without a break

This heresy which shocks an old

ancient foe, the double moral stand

And now consider a statement
made by the statistician of an insur-

"A great racial loss results from
the fact that women with higher ed

And then he urges the college bred

Kitchen Hints
Tempting Menus

The most attractive refreshment
for an evening party IL the buffet

ing room where she may use a de-
finite color scheme in decorating her

The supper may or may not have
a hot dish such as e. timbaie or patty,
1t should have a salad, sandwiches,
salted nuts. little cakes, an ice and
hot chocolate or coffee. The hot dish
adds to the elaborateness but. makes
a lot more work and almost neces-
states a competent cook in the
kitchen. The supper of just salad
may be prepared by the hostess be-
fore the party comes in and requires
no maid in the dining room.
Buffet Supper Menu
Chicken patties, olives, jellied sal
ad. brown bread and butter sand
witches. sailed nuts, fancy cakes,
peach parfaft, candy. coffee.
Jellied chicken salad, tiny pickles.

mushrooms, Y cup butter. 1-3 cup
-four, 4 cups milk. 1 teaspoon salt, *
teaspoon mustard. paprika.

lage from the meat of the chicken.

tween three and four cups. Melt
butter and stir in -four. Scald milk
and add. beating with a wire whisk.
Mix salt and mustard and stir in
sauce. Let boil five minutes. Add
meat and mushrooms and make very
hot. Serve in patty shells and

This amount should serve IL or
II persons.

bage, 8 sweet green peppers, 3
canned pimentoes, / cup diced celery

chicken and a layer of celery. Con-
tinue until all Is used. Pour over
