Sleeveless Frocks; FreckIes.

Sleeveless gowns, now so stylish and
popular during the heat waves, repre-
sent the well-known swing of the pen
dulum in women's styles, according to
a masculine dress expert, says the New
York Sun and Globe. At the other
end of the arc of changes are the sum-
mer furs. The main inconsistency the
fair sex Is guilty of IS that they retain
their fox and wolf skins during the
warm spells.
While the furs naturally add to the
heat they afford little protection from
"Old Sol' and there will be more sun
burned arms this year than ever be-
before In the history of the country.
But sun-burned arms do not concern
their fair owners. In fact they're
proud of them. It's the freckles that
appear with most sunburns that worry
the modern sleeveless frock wearer.
Few women point with pride to their
freckleS.

FIGHTING THE BOIL WEEvIL
Department Of Agriculture Has Elab-
crate Plans for Further Effective
War Against the Pest.

The work of the Department of
Agriculture at Tallulah, La, in devel-
oping methods and apparatus for dust
ing cotton to kill the boil weevil, is be-
Ing continued this summer and heavier
planes are being used. In the spring
three De Haviland Alb planes were de-
tailed by the War department for use
1n these tests, and competent engineers
and pilots were also provided.
Previously, considerable work on
this problem had been lone with light
machines, and the use of the larger
ones has made it necessary to modify
the distributing mechanism. Several
types of dust hoppers have been made
for meeting the new conditions, but 1t
will probably require some time to de-
velop a design which will be satisfac-
tory. Mr.. Coad, who has charge of the
boil weevil laboratory for the Depart
ment of Agriculture, expects to have a
fairly satisfactory permanent hopper
installed in one of the planes for use
in actual control work during the sum
mer.
Several plantations near the landing
field have been mapped and all ar
engagements have been made for dust
Ing the cotton with the planes. The
of the new tests will be await
ed with interest by all those connected
the cotton industry.

HI RIGHT THING

XXI

And to breakfast with VIA appetite
you Acknowledgements.
GONE of the men back from France
- are full of enthusiasm over the
French way Of solving the breakfast
problem. They like the habit of taking
on rising and not assembling for a
hearty breakfast until the middle of
the day. That second breakfast, which
is more like our luncheon, is a leisure
ly meal and quite often it is the first
occasion Of the day when the entire
family gathers together.
There is not much likelihood that we
will adopt the continental breakfast,
but it is easy to see that we Americans
are finding the convenience of having
a breakfast that is a movable feast.
hat is, we no longer regard it as es-
sential for every one to appear around
the breakfast board at once. The time
for breakfast should be arranged to
suit the convenience of the one who
breakfasts and this Is quite possible
to manage, whether you have many
servants or none. If there are guests
in your house they will quite likely
ask you before retiring for the first
night what time you have breakfast in
the morning. If they do not ask, you
should tell them your breakfast ar
engagements. A very good thing to do
is to tell them that breakfast is served
up to a certain time in the morning.
If there are some members of your
household who arise from necessity or
choice at a very early hour, that is
40 reason why a guest within your
walls, who may not be used to so early
a rising hour or who perhaps needs
more sleep after a journey, should
rise at the same time. Moreover, we
no longer eat the kind of breakfasts
that must be served promptly, as soon
as they are ready. Fruit will keep all
the morning and cereal, if left In a dou-
BILE boiler and covered on the stove,
does not deteriorate. Eggs can be
boiled as they are needed and coffee
be left in the percolator for an
hour or so without becoming unpala-
table, or it is an easy matter to make
a fresh brew when the late break
need 1t.
There is not the slightest discour-
tesy, then, in taking your breakfast
you find it most convenient,
without waiting for others in your

Now, here is another question:
what is considered the fashionable
ime to have breakfasts"
Well, whether it is fashionable" or
lot to get to ones work on time in the

very one strives to do. If there are
hildren in your family who 60 to

Good Idea for Radiators.

BY means of a new device, shown
In Popular Mechanics Magazine, the
bothersome legs of radiators, from
around which dirt is removed with
difficulty, are done away with and the
radiator supported from the pipe con-
nections at the floor. Inconspicuous
wall braces prevent the radiator from
tipping, and adjustable center rests
are provided for long radiators. The
attachments are adaptable to any size
or make of radiator.

Uncommon
Sense s sS3aaza1E
YOUR TIME AND MONEY

TN a very little book, Arnold Bennett
the novelist, points out that money
spent can be replaced, but time spent
is gone forever.
Mr.. Bennett, we believe, is a little
too liberal in his ideas about money
spending. He, of course, being highly
talented can get more money easily
enough. Most of us can't.
Money, once we have got it, should
be spent wisely and carefully. indie
pendence is the goal of us all, and
without money we can never have in
dependence. Thrift in money matters
Is highly important.
But thrift in time is still more i'm
portant. An hour wasted is an hour
lost.
Decide as early in life as you can
just how much time you can afford to
waste, and never waste another hour
beyond that limit.
Do not count time spent in play or
in recreation or in a few weeks of
absolute idleness as waste.
Rest is necessary, and play is the
best form of rest. A little idleness is
necessary when the machine gets run
down.
But let not an hour be altogether
wasted. The time you spend riding
from the house to the office or shop
can be spent in reading the news, or in
profitable conversation with somebody
who can give you information or ideas.
The time you sit about waiting for
meals can be spent with a good book,
and you ought always to keep one on
hand for that purpose.
If you find you cannot go to sleep i'm
mediately on going to bed, keep a
book handy n read it till you get
sleepy.
Allot a certain part of your leisure
hours to thinking about the work of
the next day or in going over the day
that is past to find why you made mis-
takes, and how to avoid them tomor-
low.
Put in part of your time remember
Ing books and conversations and things
you have seen. That Is the best mem
DRY exercise, and memory will wither
without use as a muscle will.
Divide your time Systematically.
Spend it wisely. You have only a GER
tain amount of it, which comprises your
whole life.
A waste of time is a waste of part
Of your life, and nobody can afford
hat.

THE ROMANCE OF WORDS
"BANTINe"

w HEN in 1868, William
Banting, a distinctly cor
pulent upholsterer of London,
decided that he was getting too
much fat and made a resolution
to refrain from sweets, pota-
toes, bread and meat, except in
small quantities, he probably
had no idea that he was going
to introduce an entirely new
word into the English language.
Banting's system of diet was
nothing new. 1t was based
merely upon the recommended
lions of various physicians that
an elimination of starchy foods
would tend to reduce his weight
by preventing the addition of
o fat and by wasting away
the fatty tissues already pres
ent. But it a not long be-
fore he found that he had lost
twenty pounds, then forty, and
finally more than eighty. So
amazed were his acquaintance
by the change which had come
over the merchants change
which was mental as well as
physical, because the reduction
of his weight made him more
alert and vigorous-that they in
sisted that he tell them the
secret" Soon it became noised
all owe London that, if one were
to follow the "Banting system"
which, in the course of time,
vas shortened to "Banting"
and, finally, the capital letter
was dropped and the word ad-
mitted to the English language
though the majority of die
t~ionaries insist upon referring +,
to it as "Bantingism,' and in /,
sist that the verb ito bant," :
though commonly used, has no
foundation whatever.

Smoke Screen From seapIane.

The use of dense smoke clouds by
naval vessels for the purpose of
screening battleships from the enemy,
has been practiced for a long time.
Fast destroyers are usually employed
to lay the cloud of heavy smoke,
which is produced by regulating fuel
and draft in the main boilers. Recent
tests, however, have proved the
efficacy of seaplanes in this respect.
In fact, the seaplane has at least two
advantages over the destroyer: 1t can
lay a screen much more rapidly it
can regulate the height of the screen
above water, and may make it com
pletely envelop IN object by flying
oyer and around the latter. When a
seaplane is used for laying the screen,
the smoke results from the introduc-
ton into the exhaust pipe of chemi-
Gals that increase the volume as well
as the density of the exhaust gases.

who is given to late hours, either in
the pursuit of pleasure or because his
business begins and ends late in the

only thing that al be said is that
farmers and farmers families always
have TO rise earlier han most city folk,
and the latter are regarded as being
