Window Shades Should
Be Given Consideration

Lace on shades is not usually desira-
BILE. There are very few houses indeed
which, from the exterior view, are not
positively marred by the use of lace on
shades. 1t makes great incongrulty
that a trained eye finds very disagree
able. This is particularly true of lace
edgings; it is also true, although in
lesser degree, of lace Insertion. Once
In lifes journey we see "a house that
has all the appearance Of Lavender
and old lace" Here lace on shades
might be acceptable.
Holland striped cloth is one of the
newest introductions among materials
used for shades. They are very pleas
ing in appearance and are also pre-
pared in such a manner as to withstand
the effects Of weathering. They are,
therefore, safe to use at windows that
are left open with the shade pulled
down. Except in white houses, white
shades are usually an eyesore from the
outside.
On neither shades nor Grapes should
large figures be used unless the size of
the room warrants it. Another general
rule to, keep in mind when dressing
windows is that the windows should be
so arranged that they may take on
double character. They are. relatively
bright during the day; at night they
should be in accord with the feeling
that the outside world has gone to
sleep. They should give one the feel
inc of protection, of homeyness. These
effects may be most easily attained by
the use of double curtain rods. On the
inside one is hung the materials that
are light in weight and color; on the
outside-the one next to the room
he heavier and darker colored Grapes

Use Warm Water and
Ammonia for Windows

Windows are best cleaned with
warm water containing ammonia. But
if the glass has become very dirty
paste made of whiting and water,
rubbed on and allowed to dry before
being removed with soft cloth, will
be found effective. Windows should
never be cleaned when the sun shines
upon them, or they will dry streaky.
A cloth fixed upon a stick is some
times useful when cleaning windows
There are several preparations made to
prevent the steaming of windows, but
few of them are successful. The real
remedy is better ventilation.
Window glass is either sheet or
plate, the latter being the more ex-
pensive. Plate glass is much thicker
than sheet glass, and consequently
heavier. Heavy windows are some
what troublesome but the great adj
vantage of plate glass is, apart from
the better appearance, that it deadens
sound from outside. A room fitted
with plate glass windows is always
much quieter than one In which the
windows are Of sheet glass.

ing moist foods and the sandwiches
within them should be well wrapped in
waxed or parchment paper to prevent
drying out.
Every precaution should be taken to
keep the foods in the school lunch
clean and in good condition. In dusty
seasons they should be wrapped partic-
ularly well. In hot weather the use
of soft, moist foods in which molds
and bacteria are most likely to grow
rapidly should be avoided. Although
chopped meat moistened with dress
ing of some kind makes a. good sand
wich filing, such food is less desir-
able in hot weather than slices OF
meat, peanut butter, or other foods,
less likely to spoil.
Useful for Packing.
Paper napkins or the somewhat
heavier paper towels of much the same
size, and paraffin and parchment pa
pers, are very useful for packing
lunches, and may now be obtained
at low price, particularly if bought
in rather large quantities. If no pro-
vision is made in the school for serv-
ing lunches, an extra napkin, either
of paper or cloth, should be put in the
basket, to be spread over the school
desk when the lunch is eaten. Nap
kins that are easy to wash and re-
quire no ironing can be made of cotton
crepe at a cost Of a very few cents
each. The crepe may be bought by
the ward, and should be cut into
squares and fringed.
In packing the lunch, sandwiches,
cookies, and other foods should be
wrapped in neat separate parcels, and
the things less likely to crush should
be put at the bottom. Paper cups and
cartons, jelly tumblers with covers,
and bottles and jars with screw tops,
such as those in which candy ard 9TH
er foods are sold, can all be used for
packing jellies, jams, honey, sliced raw
fruits, custards, cottage cheese, and
other half-solid foods.

Quaint Party Frocks
Chic for Little Girls

Quaint charm is the keynote of party
frocks designed for the very small per-
son and in the varied modes one finds
that every age and every type of child
hood has been studied and frocks Gre
ated that, while adorably simple, never
theless emphasize the individuality Of
each tiny wearer.
There are straight, slim frocks for
the child just outgrowing the chubbi-
ness of babyhood and friIly little gowns
to adorn the plump little person of
three years and between these two a
wide range adapted to all ages and all
types.
Never have youthful clothes been
more delightful, from the most practi-
cal of jersey play frocks with collars
and cuffs of plaid or Roman striped
ribbon, to those brief little affairs of
taffeta or crepe de chine which appear
on the momentous occasion of a birth
day party.
Pastel colored taffeta and crepe are
used for these little frocks, with many
frills of the material itself or lace as
trimming.

BUTTER BEST FOR CHILDREN
Like Milk 1t Is Rich in Growth-Pro-
noting Vitamins-Hard to Estl-
mate Quantity.

Among the fats butter is generally
considered the best for children be-
cause, like milk, it is. rich in the
growth-promoting vitamin A. It is no
easier to make an exact estimate of
the quantity of butter than IF milk
needed in a child's diet. Speaking
roughly, however, an ounce, Or two
cubic inches, or two level tablespoon
fuls of butter is probably enough for
day when at least one and a half
pints Of whole milk are used, accord
ing to the United States Department
Of Agriculture.

Wooden Spoon Mirror
for Dressing Table

The foundation for a dressing table
set is made of large wooden spoons
having long handle. This spoon is
placed on the back of a rectangular
mirror and held in place with glue,
then carefully covered with interlaced
orchid shaded ribbon, while the spoon
handle is carefully wrapped with the
same ribbon which is tied in an Orna-
mental bow and glued near the handle.
A number of ribbon roses decorate
the mirror in conspicuous places. A
tube of the best liquid glue should be
used in making these articles so there
will be no cause to fear discoloration
of the fabrics. The glue is applied
sparingly and allowed to set before at
taching the materials.

ceal her acute angles, dress her pref
ty hair, bring out her naive charm
and, above all, to conceal the art that
turns her out apparently so simply
clad.
Therefore every mother, who un-
dertakes to make her daughters ward
robe at home, will do well to be a
cOpyist and follow the styles present
ed for girls Of all ages rather thar to
design independently. The miss of
fourteen and upward wants to dress
beyond her years, about nine times out
of ten, and when allowed to do 81
loses the sweet charm that belongs
TO her.
For a slender girl the pretty, dark
cloth frock, shown in the picture, re-
veals the fine hand of an expert. 1t
is trim but full enough to soften her
sharp angles; it boasts a clever en-
broidered decoration on the blouse, a
smart waistline and graceful length.
These work-a-day dresses, in which
the young miss wends her way to
school, or wherever the everyday BUSH
ness of life takes her, are varied by
removable cuffs and collars in many
styles that keep them dainty and in
teresting. Two of these are illus.
trated and the sets may be bought
ready made, or the embroidered
batiste by the yard and made up
into sets at home. They launder
easily and successfully.
Mankind looked first to fur for his
protection from the wind and cold.

FlaEing Lines in
Knee-Length Coat
Fashionable Garment Takes
Place of Long Type and
Short Jacket.

Significant changes have taken place
In the lines of coats and dresses and,
while cursory examination of the
new styles might lead one to believe
that last seasons frock could be cam
ouf1aged by slight changes into a new
model, this is simply a deceptive Wis
ion, asserts a fashion authority in the
New York Tribune. There is subtle
widening of the line from the knees,
and it is like the proverbial inch in
mans stature when one attempts to
reconcile it to last years clothes.
The waistline, too, has moved to a
new salient, and, since waistlines are
one of fashions significant marks, this
makes striking difference. The line
of spring was somewhere in the vicin-
ity of the hips, while this season the
waistline occupies a much lower posi-
ton and really becomes hobble
around the legs or is absent alto
gether.
Another type Of suit that is popular
among the new fashions is the three
quarter length coat and dress. The
three-quarter length coat returns to
favor after so long a time that the
fiappers will not remember them at all
in any measure of popularity. The
knee-length coat lends itself admirably
to the new flaring lines and is re-
freshing change from the long coat
and the eternal short jacket of other
seasons. Coats of this type are usually
cut flaring and are trimmed with fur
as is almost every garment in Paris.
These suits are often embroidered in
the fashionable Chinese and Persian
motifs. The dress in the comhina-

this late day the demand for fur is
so great as to threaten the extinction
of many fur-bearing animals, The
love of fine furs has been character
istic of the human race SO long that
It NAV be said to be an instinct.
Such furs as ermine and sable have
reached such high prices that furriers
are developing other more common,
and far less expensive furs, to take
their places. The last decade has seen
he introduction of many processes of
dyeing and manufacture which have
piaced beautiful and practical furs
within the reach of persons of mod
crate means.
