Bring Both Good and Bad
Luck.

According to old books and beliefs,
the needlewoman can do a great deal
to bring down good or bad luck on
herself by the way she works. Here
are some points to remember:
If you are handing a needle to a
friend, be sure to hand it with the
eye towards her. If the point is in her
direction your friendship with her will
be severed
Superstition cannot say enough
about the extreme bad luck of having
your clothes mended on you, or mend
ing someone else's while they are be-
ing worn. Some authorities say that
each stitch taken under these condi-
tons means tear; others, that each
stitch means an enemy; but all agree
that misfortune will follow.
The breaking of needle brings no
such dire fate, but indicates that the
person for whom the garment is being

Later In the day they met again,
and the storekeeper informed the

Important to all Women
Readers of this Paper

Thousands upon thousands of women
have kidney or bladder trouble and never
suspect it.
Women's complaints often prove to be-
nothing else but kidney trouble, or the
result of kidney or bladder disease.

to become diseased.
You may suffer pain in the back, head
ache and loss of ambition.
Poor health makes you nervous, irrits.

one so.
But hundreds of women claim that Dir.
kilmer's Swamp-Root, by restoring
health to the kidneys, proved to be Just
the remedy needed to overcome such
conditions.
Many send for sample bottle to see what

IF 1T HADN'T BEEN SUNDAY
Cook Certainly Would Not Have
Overlooked the Use of That
Insulting Pronoun.

The ritual of society, as women
make it, is very exacting the world
over even In almshouses. In this re-
lation there is told story showing the
serious difficulty that arose among a
set of workhouse officials in Western
town.
The infrmary nurses, three in num-
Der, had demanded a separate sitting
room and the delight Of Sunday din
ner therein, and the matron had sought
to humble them by sending the cook
to enjoy her Sunday dinner in their
company. The brawny cook described
what occurred as follows:
."Well, Nurse Jones, she comes down
and gets inside the door, -Four
platesY she says. -Four? Who's the
fourth? Me- says j. Your she
says, and with that she losses her
head and walks away"
Here the cook drew a long breath.
and then continued: IF it hadn't
been Sunday, gentlemen, 1 should have
let her have it for calling me you p"

1t is also fortunate to be a person
whose stockings always need darning
on the ball of the foot.
Don't cross your stitches when sew
ing on button. If you work around
from hole to hole, instead of across.
your luck will be far better.
For some strange reason it is not
considered fortunate for girl to
stitch her trousseau herself; though
a widow remarrying is sure to be hap
by in her choice if she mends a pair
of trousers ON her second wedding
day.

Hanging Gowns Away.

Sometimes it is a good plan to de-
wise a covering that will cover a
whole row of gowns, instead of using
separate bags for each. This can cas-
lily be done by taking two old
sheets and stitching a loop of tape
to each of two adjoining corners on
each sheet. Hang one sheet by these
loops to pegs on the closet wall, then
hang the dresses in front of this, and
its corner loops. This affords good
dust protection and at the same time
keeps the gowns easily accessible.

To Clean Brass Articles.

Do not throw away squeezed lem

rub it in well, using the lemon as

how much dirt you can remove in
very short time and with little trouble.

extent of the dull finish and the creepy
weave in silks.
Lanvin always has been an orig
inator of most interesting embroid-
cries. Recently she has been work
ing out some extraordinary effects
through entirely new means. Fer In
stance. she uses tinsel tinted in lovely
color tones and applies it to the frock
to give the effect of embroidered
panels.
Some New Trimming Effects.
In a charming suit this effect has
been achieved through the use OF the
white braid and blue beads. One
cannot imagine this maker departing
entirely from embroideries or en-
broidered effects, as work of this sort
has been raised to the eminence of
fine art in her work rooms and no
amount of study and effort spared to
produce the best in this line.
Children, too, have their fashions
nowadays and their clothes are re-
ceiving an amount Of study and at
tention which would have astonisaed
makers of -children's clothes few
years ago. Great designers have dis
covered the artistic possibilities that
lie in these little garments. Conse-
material used is a soft black satin.
quently they are infinitely more at
traetive than in the days when they
did not differ from the dresses of their
elders and when little babies dresses
were miniature duplicates of their
mothers frocks, or even within the
last decade, when clothes for little
people were just plain and useful.
OF course, the best children's clothes
are simple. 1t is impossible to overdo
simplicity in them. And no matter
how simple, they may have some
special interest of design or trimming,
as do those Of grownups.
We have in great abundance the
frills, flounces and fichus of a hun
dred years ago in dresses for future
debutantes, but the very smartest
thing is the chemise dress of white
or some delicately colored French
wolfe with a bit of hand needlework
adjoining it.
