Importance of Handkerchiefs.

The same friend in Paris who has
sent ne so many new suggestions
about hair dressing styles and pocket
books sends me a letter about the
new handkerchiefs. OF course, we all
know that fancy hankerchiefs are
the vogue and talking about them
is really not in my line, except to
this extent, that the new handker-
chief can add much to a woman's at
tractiveness, and anything of that
sort belongs in my special depart
ment.
The new handkerchiefs are general
;Iy real or imitation batik. L can't
imagine how they're Iaundered. This
friend sent me one which I tried TO
launder by all the newest scientific
labor-saving methods, but it streaked
hopelessly in spite of care and deli
use. think I'd advise the conserya-
tive cambric or linen square.
But for other things, Can you do
batik? It's really easy enough. One
process is painting hot dye on silk
stretched over blotter or frame.
the design being previously outlined
with hot melted raraffin which keeps
the color from running. The more
elaborated ways of coating the whole
design with paraf1in and dipping the
silk in hot dye we needn't bother
with. But IL you can't do batik. you
can at least buy silk, that's gayly
patterned. Make squares of it, roll
tho edges and slip stitch them TO hold
them-an oveP-and-over binding
than pieoting.
Wear such Ii gay colored handker-
chief in the pocket of your suit. 1t

day. Or cut one on the bias in halves,

Frostbite.

Every reasonably human being
should know what TO do IL certain
emergencies, such as drowning accl-
dents. suffocation by gas. electric
shock chow TO perform Schafer's easy
method ot artificial respirationl, sun
stroke, fainting and frostbite. Too
often the victim is injured by dra-
matte efforts when something might
be done for him by any bystander
who is prepared. Preparedness IS
fine TO talk about. but it Is a sin and
a. shame that the great majority or
supposedly intelligent adults can 40
nothing but gasp and yell and get IN
the way when an emergency occurs.
1t would be better to faint right
away and make room for some one
who can help-a Boy Scout, for IN

average bystanGer a number OF
things 1t is valuable to know.
~E'rostbite is pathologically uentlcal

in three degrees. The first degree Is
a mere redness and irritation OF the
skin; the second degree is bltsterlnG'

quent effects seen In deep burn.

aching, smaTting, burning. 1t Is a
frequently recurring first degree
frostblte.
If frostoite is severe, the blanching
is followed after an hour or two by
bluenesS or lividity and blistering of
the skin. Healing is even more tedi-
Gus than after Il burn of similar de-
gree. If the frostbite is of the third
degree, the surface becomes "black
and blue" or marblelike, there is no
sensation or pain and blisters cover
the skin. This means gangrene-
local death-and all the concomitants
of that condition-sloughing ulcer
alton, sepsis.
The treatment for frostbite should
be stimulation of the individual with
hot coffee and the application OF gem
eral warmth-hot-water bag. hot foot
baths, etc. But for. ordinary nips Of
sage with snow or cool water is
, sufficient, and this should be care
| fully done to avoid blistering by fric-
, tion. The rubbing and kneading
should cease the instant a nataural
color returns to the bitten skin. This
usually occurs after a few seconds
Of treatment. In ordinary frostbites
excessive rubbing will do more harm
. than the bite itself. for at the worst
there is a mere peeling OF cuticle as

One American designer insisted
that he could make an entire collec-
ton of clothes from ribbon--hats,
wraps, frocks, sport clothes and
blouses, And he did. Every gar

effect was not only sensational, but
successful, to say nothing Of sugges-

1t is rarely that a gown escapes
