THE DINING TABLE
BETWEEN MEALS

WV table cloth on or not be-
tween meals is q point de-
batod in many homes where the
housewife wishes her home to be
pretty and up to date The saving of
labor may be an argument to keep
the cloth on, but 16-year-old daugh-
ter. especially II she is taking a
homo economics course in high
school, may plead to have 1t taken
of to give the dining room the ele-
gance of a polished table. embroid-
cred mat and vase Of flowers. Isn't
there something to be said on both

Something contrary to The frequent
modern plea ito be independent" is
to be said about the place one re-
sides in. The custom of the neigh
borhood might be such that a marked
departure from It would mark

overfastidious. On tho other hand,

The Irresistible Gharn

TN Paris and London they are still
mad over the short coat of fur.
1t is practically supreme for
daytime wear. Topping the pleated
skirt of p~anvelaine or the draped one
Of velvet, it achieves a costume whose
chic is difficult to equal. Fashionable
furriers declare that its popularity
will hold for at least another sea
son. So that we on this side of the
Atlantic may feel perfectly safe in
continuing to indulge our penchant
for this smart little garment.
1t is undeniably the dernier cri in
insouciant charm. and the fact that
the streets are flooded with a host
OF cheap, shabby, ill-htting limitations
does not detract in the least from
the smartness of the really handsome
garment
When Buying Fur.
Why is 1t that some women never
learn the lesson that there is moth
ing more unsatisfactory or more
cheapening than a poor fur? Over and
over we hear Of their troubles when
they buy a fur wrap or cape at some
unknown and unreliable dealer.
They wear 1t a few times and then 1t
becomes so disreputable that they are
actually ashamed to go out in 1t. Yet
their money has been spent and they
feel that they can only go on wear

MILLIONS NOW CONE
FROM COTTON SEED
One-Time Nuisance Has Become
Veritahle Gold Mine AS
Shown In Man. Products

ATLANTA, Nov 5.-At present
the value of products obtained from
cot.onseed in this country is in ex-
cess Of $150,0O0,000 annually, ac-
cording to officials of the Georgia
department of agriculture. The
one-time nuisance has become a
verittble gold mine of enorous i'm
portance in the prosperity of the
cotton states and of wide diversity
in its uses.
The manufactured articles that
trace their source back to cotton
seed include many of the necessities
and comforts of modern life. Mat
tresses are stuffed with cottonseed
linters. Eggs are fried in hydro
genated cotton seed oil or other sub
stitutes derived from the seed.
Dishes and soiled napkins are
cleaned with soap probably contain
ing cottonseed oil as an ingredient,
end the sink and kitchen floor are
frightened and rubbed up with
washing compound, a cotton seed
derivative. The monday luncheon
may include canned tuna-fish or
sardines which hav ebeen packed in
colt onseed oil.
The lady of the house used 2 cell
luloid comb made of combination
of nitrated cotton linters and
camphor. She may garb herself
completely in garments of artificial
silk made from nitrated cotton lint
ers. If it is housepainting time she
may write note the painter on
paper made from cottonseed linters.
The chances are the roof will be
painted with al residue derived, aft
er many intermediate steps, from
cottonseed.
Automobiles are cushioned with
artificial leather made by coating
cotton fabric with mixture Of
castor oil and nitrated cotton lint
crs. A detour in the road may mean
that the highway is being repaired
through the aid of dynamite, made
through nitrated glycerin which in
turn is a by-produt obtained when
soap is made from such vegetable
oils as ottonseed oil.
The roast beef or the juicy steak
of the evening meal may come from
an animal fattened on cotton seed
hulls and meal The French fried
potatoes may have been friend in
cotton seed coking oil and the salad
may be g&rnished with dressing
made from cotton seed salad oil.
In fact, thanks to chemistry, the
entire day may be linked with ac-
Invites in which cotton or cotton
seed derivatives play a part,
