organdy cordinG which has rows Of
petals added as trimming. so that the
effect Is quite elaborate. A 9irdle of
French blue offers bit Of color re-
lief. and spray Of white lilacs at
one side OF 1t forms charming
corsage.
Something new in the way of sum-
mer wraps Is illustrated. Ratine Of q
very fine French quality forms the
medium, and black silk fringe the
trimming. and the effect i'd smart and
quite original. The color Is navy
blue. but its somberness Is lightened
by the gay embroidery which appears
just above the fringed edge. This is
worked out In tones Of red, peacock
blue and gold, interspersed with
touches of black and 1t gives the
wrap an air of elegance quite incom-
patible with its humble material. The
collar Is plain and wide, and falls
over the shoulders like a shawl, while
row of gathers just below 1t gives
graceful swing to the garment
Black picture hats are coming into
such great favor in fashion circles
that they threaten the popularity of
leghorn and panamas for the sultry
summer months. The model sketched
has crown and softly dropping brim
of lustrous satin crepe and black lace
trails carelessly over 1T, falling al
most to the shoulders at the sides,
but just yelling the eyes in the front
Large squares of jet, strung with
smaller black beads, circle the crown
to add the only trimming.

HOME ECONOMICS.
by MRS. ELIZABETH KENT.
Convenient DoHies.

Look" said my neighbor. II found a
remnant of good linen the other day,
and my trousseau doiiies were all worn
out, so I've been replacing them with
these" She had cut the linen into
pieces having four large seallops. by
laying a plate on each of the four cor
ners, in turn marking the arc Of its cir
Gle. Then she had had the edge hem
stitched by machine at very trifing ex-
pense, and now she was working q
dainty crocheted border through the
hemsitching. The result was . dolly
of the quaintest, prettiest shape and
effect, the sort OF thing you cannot buy.

is excellent quality. knew that the
probably outwear the linen. and they
are exactly the shape and size 1 want
for my cake plates. My others were
either too large or too small"
"You could even use these for fruit
serviettes," 1 remarked. They are
small. but the new ones are small now. :"
isn't the linen too coarse?" she OBJ
jected
"Why, no." l declared, feeling of one
she had already washed. sLook. this is
as fine and soft as YOU could wish: now
find such good linen. I declare now
adays I'm never certain. until 1t Is
washed, whether the linen Is any good
or not the old superficial tests with
threads and wetting your finger seem to
prove nothing"

Making 1t Easier
When You Cook

When recipe calls for chocolate
and you wish to substitute cocoa, use
two level tablespoons of cocoa for
each square of chocolate called for.
Increase the amount OF fat little,
as cocoa has less fat than cake
chocolate.
Mix cocoa and sugar together
| thoroughly--an easy way is to shake
them, together In a. glass tar-to
make them easier to add to the other
ingredients called for in a recipe for
| cooked chocolate dessert.
When preparing a yeast cake for
mixing with the liquids when max
ing bread add a tablespoon of sugar
to 1t and mix it with a spoon. In a
rev minutes paste almost liquid
will result. and this mixes readily
with the liquids and loses none of the
yeast. as the other method of mixing
the yeast with a little milk some
times does.
Pineapple juice cuts marshmallow,
SO when a recipe calls for cut up
marshmallows have by you a cup
with some canned pineapple Juice in
it and dip the silver knife with
which you are cutting the marsh
| mallows in the juice from time to
time.
When making cookies don't put
tH0 trimmings eacn time back into
the main batch of dough. Instead
put them aside and when there are
enough trimmings roll them out and
cut them. Some cookie makers keep
putting the trimmings back into the
main batch and find that their last
cookies are always much less crisp
and tender than their first. This
method of using the trimmings up
separately does away with thia de-
creasingly tender state of affairs,
and although the trimming cookies
may be a little less tender, because
they have more -four from the ad-
ditional rolling, than the rest, still
your whole batch of cookies will
average better.
When a recipe calls for part of a
cup Of butter. hll a cup with cold
water and pour out as much as the
| amount of butter called for. Then
add butter to the part-full cup OF
water until the water reaches the
| top. This is a much easier way than
| to pack butter into a cup and then
| dig it out again.
| The easiest way to bake sponge
| cake is to pour it straight into un-
| creased pans Usually the recipe fol
sponge cake calls for pans CREASED
and then Toured. The effect of un.
| creased pans seem to be the same al
| that of CREASED and Toured pans ano
the sponge cake comes out withou
sticking.
When you are using a liquid fat IL
place Of butter in a recipe add a lit
tie salt, as the oil has none. Other.
wise, as in cake. you may notice 9
rather fiat and tasteless effect.

as little soul uplift as any job you
ight. mention; There's little OF
beauty about the tools with which a
barber works, and still less In the
faces on which he works. If any
craftsman has good reason for
notony Of his Job, surely it's Andy.
But instead. of housing a kick, Andys
barber shop houses dream come
true. u
Andy loves beauty. He longed to be
an artist and studied for the job. But
the only brush his hands could learn
to manipulate was the one with lath-
err on the end. So Andy gave up his
palette. But he didn't give up his
dream. He didn't mix his lather with
bile just because he hadn't made the
grade. as SO many of us do. Since he
couldn't go to art. he decided that art
should come to him. And come 1t has.
Today his little shop Is lined with
more than twenty canvases by tne
leading Hungarian artists. Above the
prosaic bowls and bottles they hang,

who. shall say that his skill does not
partly come from those living colors
which speak from wall to wall?
Andrew Macy has done, more than
satisfy, his Individual hunger for
beauty. He has solved a little seq
ment of the puzzle of life. He's let

WHO WEARS OUT
YOUR HUSBANDS
CUFF EDGES?

1t is not your husbands fault
that his cuffs get frayed and
have to be turned while the
shirt is still good. To be sure.
he gets the cuffs dirtier than
any other part of the shirt, but
It is the rubbing you do get
ting the dirt out that wears
the material.
Most. of that rubbing Is not
necessary. Soaking IN Rinse
will get the cuffs just as clean
without weakening q single
thread. The rich, cleansing
Rinse suds gently loosen all
the dirt, 50 that q thorough
rinsing carries 1t of. II there
is sometimes q fine line that
is not entirely soaked out, rub
lightly with dry Rinse, and
that, too, will disappear At
once.
Make your husbands shirts
last twice as long. Save the
wear and tear of rubbing, 30
disastrous to clothes, such .
drain on your own strength.

you make the beds? Why not hang

Why not throw out three-quarters OF

Why not go fishing oftener? Why
not take that little camping trip
