FoR THE LINEN cLosEF.

4. White table linen is. the order of the day for, dinner, but there is a decided fancy. for colored. .cottons and linen damasks for Breakfast, luncheon and supper. Sometimes the color. is an all over treatment while at other times 1t merely consists of a. border. =
 In doilies the large, oblong type is the newest and best as it gives a less spotty appearance to the table. It holds the plate, glass and Silver all in one.
 Cross-stitct has made rapid strides as a decorative motif for these dotiies Cress-stitch originated in China a thous- and years ago and, Interestingly enough Is not done by women but by men. This particular type of linen wears and wash es extremely well. i, Grass cloth Chin. ese sets, hand embroidered in color have been commercialized for the ,frsi time to an extensive degree. Domestic cross-stiteh at low prices has achieved remarkable progress also. The scalIor edges of certain makes are guaranteed not to ravel and the, cross stitching
 done by a patented machine, shows [ front and back alike.

 Stew and strain apples and use as you would pumpkins for custard.
 An excellent dish for ligtA luncheon is milk toast served with grated cheese. Whipped cream gives a very festive air to clam bouillon and doubles its savor- ness.

 When you make plum pudding. grease the cover Of the mold as well as the mold Itself.
 To clean a zinc bath scrub it thorough ly with coarse salt, moistened with paraf- tin.
 The life of baskets can be prolonged by scrubbing them occasionally with hot soapsuds.
 White shoes keep clean longer and loof better the more quickly they are dried so try to clean them on sunny day.

COATS REvEEL IN coLoR

The Bible historians were not explicit in stating the length of Joseph,s coat-all we know is that it was of many colors. Whether it was short or full length is not clearly stated. otherwise the most popular and modish coat of the moment could be entirely hkened to the most eel ebrated coat of color. .--.-
 Just now, nothing appears quite so rnodish at fashionable gatherings, as the jacquette made of Paisley shawl, which is the personiication of color. The Per. sian reds and greens are seen repeatedly 50 that the aspect of the bizarre that gen erally attended the rare appearance ot such a garment, is wholly removed.
 Nor is the, mode confined to the .Pais- ley jacquette. Rug and other orienta. embroidered effects are developed, witt little modification in entire short, jacket: which are offered either as separate gar. ment CT is part of costume.

HEALrH AND REArn.

Exercise is very important. Just after the morning bath is a splendid time to run through a few simple but not strenu- ous exercises. Baths ought not. to be taken too hot, and should be followed by a brisk rub-down afterwards
 It is a mistake for women to suppose that the housework they do provides them H.ch sufficient exercise to keep them in good health without any further strenuous action,
 Cut out a piece of pasteboard to cover the medicine tunhler, and use strip of adhesive for a hinge. thus having very convenient cover fastened to tunbler.
 Well-marked eyebrows and good lashes are invaluable aids to beauty, but very few girls realize their value from d beauty point of view. and often treat them with scant consideration.
 A beautiful face is often naafred 6y neglected eyebrows and since the beauty of eyebrows and lashes depends upon the thickness and the glossiness of the haiir, the aim must be to produce these two qualities. A little pure vaseline well rubbed into them at night will promote the growth; but the treatment must be persisted in regularly to produce good results.

SHORT TERM BUSINESS,

At the short session of congress the holidays are always responsible for the loss of much time. By the action of congress in cutting the vacation short this year there is indicated a willing ness to utilize. the. time in an endeavor to dispose of the business before it.
 President Harding called the special session of congress for the purpose of relieving the demands upon congress at this time, and as the result of it the house completed it's consideration of the subsidy matter. Efforts to obstruct have been encountered, but they have not been carried to the extent of suc- cessfully demanding the usual recess.
 Progress has been made fn moving along the appropriation bills and other legislative matters have been advanced because of the extra session. Much further assistance should be given to the business in hand by the recess cur tailment provided there is displayed the disposition that the country has a rigat to expect from those sent to Washing ton to. do their law making.
 Congress can, if it will, give Its care. ful consideration to the bills awaiting  fourth of March, and it can do so with out delaying the bulk of 1t until the last day, to be played with There is l no reason why matters should be left for the next congress to deal with an6 they will not be, if the proper attitude is taken toward those who are manipH lating matters to such result.
 Perhaps it is too much to expect that political leaders will give their clost attention to the work at hand. and nc pay attention to expediency ana futur, elections, but it comes far from creat ing good impression upon the countr, when there is intentional blocking o progress. It is to be hoped the cnrtai; ed recess can be interpreted as meanins that such a policy is not going to 5, tolerated or followed but that the tim I is going to be well employed.

KEEP HEELS tN oRDER,


 An authority on the hygiene of the feet insists strongly that the one thing Worn- en should never neglect Is So Keep the heels of their shoes in perfect condition, yet the failure to, do this is, responsible for many hours Of weariness and for many misshapen feet and ankles.
 Changes in heels that wear ,oEf at the outer edges come about 50 gradually that the throwing of the foot out of position is not noticeable while it is taking place, but there goes right along with the process physical tension and nervous irritation that become pronounced after the heels have become so uneven that walking becomes difficult. Physicians who specialize in nervous ailments scan the shoes carefully to see that the re covery of their patients is not retarded by crooked heels that give a shock to the spinal cord with every step taken.

LAUNDRY HINTS.

Poorly rinsed clothes are more apt to scorch when ironed.
 A good pure soap is economy, even if 1t costs a few pennies more.
 Iron padded embroideries and waists having buttons on thick Turkish towel and they will iron as smoothly as a handkerchief
 In freezing weather wash ciotheslffes and pine with strong salt water to pre- vent the clothes from freezing to the line.
 The most suitable, padding for ironing boards is pure wooden blsnketing. The advantage of woolen oyer cotton ma terial for your press board is that wool en will not absorb any moisture, ,.b but keeps it's. elasticity. A soft pad is most suitable for pressing ernbroideries or any fabric having raised figures
 Every one knows how quickly white silk stockings turn yellow, even when washed most carefully. It is a question whether to put them away for another season or not Why not dye them gray i or sand color to wear with your sport oxfords or pumpe?
