The little lady nowa- days wears chic one-piece suit of jade or blue or crimson, rakishly banded with braid in black white or pale blue. Not infreQuently she wears a suit embroidered in white, after a quaint French pattern, and often the background for the pattern is a jer- sey suit of brilliant rose. Her hat is a jersey suit of brilliant rose. Her hat is a twist of gay bandanna or a fIoppy creation.

REMOVING PAINT

Turpentine or gasoline is usually ef- fectiye in removing paints or varnish. If the color is delicate soften with oil and apply chloroform.
 Bleaching agents should be used with care. Javelle water is useful in bleaching but it is injurious to fab rics unless it is carefully used and thoroughly removed by rinsing in water in which ammonia has been added.
