Comes a letter from Paris: The
bedrooms in our small apartments
are being furnished 6ore like bou-
doirs than like sleeping rooms

The plan of using the bedroom as
a proper place in which to receive
chosen friends. both men and wom-
en-, is gaining in favor, particularly
in families who have but one living
room and who wish to entertain
groups of older and younger peo-
pie at the same time. Mother may
have a little dinner party which may
adjourn into her room after dinner
while the table is being cleared.
and daughter may receive a little
crowd OF dancers who will not be
sorry to have the living room to
themselves.
The living bedroom must
not have the discomfort of seeming
so intimate that guests will feel in
trusiyely out of place in it. The
secret Of successfully equipping il

B. E. S.-When the face perspires
excessively, it shows the sweat glands
need to be toned. You can do this
by dashing cold water over the face
until you get the same reaction that
follows a Geld plunge. Dry with fric-

by rubbing the face with the palm
of the hand until it glows. A good
toilette water or a. mild astringent
used on the face very day during the
time you are annoyed with this con-
dition, will do much toward relieving
it.

BABY'S SWIM. G.
Use strong canvas. cutting it in a
circle measuring twenty-seven inches
| in diameter. In this cut two round
holes for baDy's legs. measuring
about five inches apart and six inches
from the edge of the canvas. Then
bind the 1eg-h oles.
Before making the holes through
which the rope Is slipped and tied.
stitch on three patches of the can
vas to strengthen it for the pull of
the rope. These holes are too small
in such heavy goods for binding. SO
it is best to button-ho1e the edges
with very coarse thread. Make one
hole or rope directly opposite each
leg hole. Then sew the edge of can
vas over piece of heavy wire, slip
ping the canvas back on the wire as
you work.
Fasten strong hooks in different
places you can use the swing fer
him wherever you are working. AL
ways hang the swing so that his lit
tie feet can push hard on the floor.
Sometimes tie a toy within easy
reach of baby's hands and he VIII
love to play with it that way.
