NATURES BEAUTY PARLOR

Beauty parlors are numerous these days. Many, many
are the women who spend hours and hours in them each day.
Care of the person is a splendid thing. To be wellgroomed
is a mark of good breeding. Women should devote time to
body and it is ones duty to take the best Of care of it. But
taking good care of ones person and constantly frequenting
beauty parlors are different things. Good soap and water and
plenty of fresh air give a more beautiful glow to the skin than
all the rouge that all the beauty parlors of the universe can
produce.
Would you have your hair healthy and glossy in appear
ance? Better than all the hair tonics and brilliantine in the
combined beauty parlors Of the world is the wind and the
sunshine. AS for hair dyes-the woman who starts to use
them to camouflage her age might as well advertise it broad
cast. Variegated in color, dry and lfeless in texture is dyed
hair. And what a chance she takes of poisoning her scalp,
the woman who constantly uses hair dye. For, of course,
if she once begins its use she has to use it constantly.
Women, why not be natural! Old Dame Nature runs the
most dependable, the most reasonable, the most helpful and
the most reputable beauty parlor in the universe. The COM
plexion and coloring she has given you, because it is natural,
can't be improved upon. If you would possess an indefnable
charm patronize Dame Natures Beauty Parlor.

YOUR BABY AND MINE

BY MYR1LE MEYER ELpREr

The Baby Fed ON 2 Too Fat Breast
Milk
Too rich a breast milk is not
at all an uncommon fault. This
is true especially among those
mothers who eat abundantly OF
good foods, high in butter and
fat content, fatty meats and
rich desserts, and whose chief
exercise is getting in and out Of
a motor car. Their milk may be so
rich in fat as to be highly indiges-
tible to their babies.
The babies show it by prodigious
gains in weight at first and then sta
tionary weight. They spit up q lit
tie bit frequently. too much, just a
mouthful of clear. sour, fluid
vomit. They may have many
bowel movements which are inclin-
ed to be thin and yellow and stain
the diaper or they may be very con-
stipated and have gray, cl7y-coi-
ored stools, very hard to pass. They
are usually fat babies and they cry
without much reason so it would
seem. The mother is usually ready
to assure you that the babies take
very little food, being satisfied with
an extremely short nursing period.
The help for these babies is
through the mother. She should

PEASANT GARB
IS IN STYLE THESE DAYS

To look like a Russian peasant is
the last word in smartness these
days.
The Chauve Souris and the Rus
sian Revues had a good deal to do
in setting the new style. Fashionable
women went, saw a lot of clothes
they'd never even thought of before,
and were conquered.
Straightway they quit trying to
look like Cleopatras and eastern n
chantresses and went in for crude
color-lots of it.
But it might not have been so
had taken such a fancy to if it
hadn't been for the Ukrainian Nee
dlework Guild Of New York.
The guild has been working for
three years to popularize that par
ticular type of patterns and en-
%broideries. 1t saw it's %opportun-
ity and made the most of it.
Russia's troubles landed some 10,
900 Ukrainians on the New York
East Side and most of them arrived
still dressed in their old world ma
| tional costumes. These they prompt-
ly proceeded to discard in favor OF
cheap %georgette blouses and tailor
mades. 1t was all very we'll from a
practical standpoint but involves
/ the sacrifices of priceless treasures
in the form Of really high art needle
work. Worse, the younger women,
instead of learning to sew, as their
mothers had a1v'e~~ dome. began go
ing into stores and factories so that
the oud art vas in grave danger Of
p%erishing forever.
It was to prevent this. as well as
to help these refugees that the guild
was founded.
A depot was established where
the mos beautiful patterns were
| collected and copied and where Uk-
| rainian wives and mothers were
gathered, to adapt their work 20

linens, and to sell it.

Have z Speakers

Attorney Klemner Kalteissen OF
New Brunswick, gave a most inter-
esting talk before the Women's City
Democratic Club, at their regular
meeting held in their club rooms
over the Strand theatre, last night
Mr.. Kalteissen brought out the Won
derful work that was accomplished
by the women in the last election.
The speaker said:
1.-THE work being done by Perth
Amboy Democratic women in con-
tinuing their organization after cleo
ton is n of the finest moves that
could have been made"
In conclusion, the speaker said
that this work was rapidly spreading
to other cities throughout the coun-
~.
Assistant Prosecutor John E.
Toolan, the next speaker of the eve
ming, gave a most inspiring and IN
structive talk on principles of the
Democratic Party" He urged that
the women stick together as a lead

unless he or she has the followers.
At the business session which fol-
lowed the program, plans were COM
pleted for the card party and dance

Miss Cleafy Made
Auxiliary Head

SOUTH AMBOY, Jan. 9. - Miss
Catherine A. Cleary, one of the local
school teachers and an ardent fol-
lower of American Legion activities
has been elected president of the
Auxiliary to Luke A. Lovely Post,
No. 81, American Legion.
Miss Cleary has outlined a pro-
gram of events dealing with the aux
iliary that she expects with the help
of the woman organization to put
across this year. Chief among her
plans are get together meetings,
which were so popular in the past.
One Of her pet ideas seems to lie in
joint meetings with the officers and
trustees Of both organizations. She
claims by closer Cooperation, much
can be accomplished this year.
The other officers of the auxiliary,
are as follows: Senior vice president,
Mrs. James Mcdonnell, ST.; Junior
vice president. Mrs. J. K. Suits; SEQ
rotary. Miss Edna Agan; treasurer,
Mrs. J. frank Disbrow: historian,
Miss Katherine Sullivan; chaplain,
Miss Helen Wortley; entertainment
officer. Mrs. Anna Behn; trustees,
Mrs. James E. Apologize, Mrs.
Frank Hoffman and Mrs. G. Allen.
The auxiliary has completed a
very successful year, and the out
look for a similar one is very good.

Art Dept. Hears
Mrs. Danenhower

IRE art department of the Wo-
mans Club held its regular meeting
at the home Of Mrs. Max Wurtzel
in Gordon street last night, with
the chairman. Mrs. c. A. Emmons,
presiding. 1t was the first open
meeting Of the department and was
largely attended.
Mrs. Mary S. Danenhower "a Js
in a most interesting and delightful
manner her third talk in the series
on Interior Decoration" taking rs
her subject Rugs and Floor Cow
erings," pointing out that a success
full room owe much to the har-
mony between the floor and its COW
erings. Never let the floor cover
ing rival in interest anything else in
its surroundings, she said. Oriental
rugs of good quality, color and de-
sign are unquestionably the best,
but they must be used with dis
elimination, declared the speaker.
Do not place too many in a room
and try to have some similarity of
color pattern and texture.
Mrs Danenhower also spoke of the
beauty of the domestic reproduce
tons of oriental rugs, which have
reached a high standard and of the
old fashioned braided or woven
rugs, SO lovely in some rooms. In
choosing a carpet or rug remember
there should be nothing in it's de-
sign that detracts from the idea Of
service. 1t is to be walked on and
a realistic treatment of flowers, AMI
mails or landscapes is manifestly out
of place, she continued.
Always take into consideration
tn e1ighting Of a room wheH
| snD fT1rrIGhT n gG zafI tho 1naHKnFs
You can make small poorly lighted
room appear larger and SUMMER by
papering it with soft light yellow
and using a rug OF different tones Of
tan and light wood work whereas,
if we have a room with much SUM-
shine it is best to choose from the
greyed greens, ivory woodwork and
a plain two-tone gray green rug.
In conclusion Mrs. Danenhower
| gave several other schemes for diff
ferent rooms offering many new
ideas to aid in the simplicity and
effectiveness of home furnishings.
At the short business session
which preceded the program it was
| decided to present Famous Pictures
in Tableau" at the regular meeting
/ Of the Woman's Club on March 10.
Mrs. T.. G. Stark was appointed
chairman assisted by Mrs. Marshall
Stewart and Mrs. Mary Danenhower
to select the pictures. Plans were
| also discussed for the art exhibit 10
be held some time in April. The
department also arranged to have
readings from the art magazine en-
| ~ternational Studio at each regular
meeting. Mrs Charles H.. Seguine
will give the first reading at the
next regular meeting of the club.

PIES AND PIE CRUSTS
BY BERTHA e. SHAPLEIGH
OF Columbia University

America is the pie-eating country
Of the world.
BY pie l mean two pieces of crust,
baked round, with a filing of fruit
or custard mixture between them.
The only one-crust pies are those
flied with squash, custard, pumpkin
or lemon, and, occasionally, stewed
fruit, with strips of paste across the
top-"cross-barred," as it is called
sometimes.
Cooks differ as to the best raw
material for shortening pie crust.
FIaky and Puffy
Lard and butter make for an ex-
ceIIent and misunderstanding crust.
Oils may be used, but they do not
result in f1aky or puffy pastry.
Soma cooks keep every ingredient
very cold; some make delicious
paste with boiling water.
There are three kinds of paste
which the housekeeper may make
plain. puff and chou.
Pfain paste is used for pies and
,simpfe tarts; puff for patties and
small pastries; chou paste is better
Known IN the form of cream puffs
Apr eciairs.
MaiK and chou paste are made
Ieasiay; puff is more difficult.
The English favor the open pie,
called q tart, and it Is advisable to
serve this kind oftener in the family.
IT ID an excellent way to use canned
and preserved fruits.
