ored ones, so as to form borders or
patterns. It follows that It must be
done along a straight edge and on
fabric which have we'll defined
threads, such as linen. shantung silk
and wolfe. Otherwise there Is no
limit to the dainty things that a

acquired the work is extremely sim

Say you decide to make some hand

handkerchiefs, each 16 inches

Question of Weight
THE WATER WAY TO
HEALTH AND BEAUTY

IF there be one royal road to beau
ty, It is the waterway. Water
- inside and out constitutes an un-
failing remedy to the seeker Of health
and beauty. The dependence of
health on beauty needs no further
emphasis. And water. pure. clean
water. is perhaps the most neglected
OF the elements that produce sound
health. There are people who, like
the camel, can and go for days at
a time without drinking a single
glass OF water. Some of them boast
of their incapacity for this greatest
Of all cleansers. Yet these very
same individuals would never admit
that they went for weeks without a
bath. Well. the necessity for bathing
within" Is quite as imperative as
any other kind of bathing.
The really serious seeker after
health who takes the waterway be-
gins her day with a glass OF warm
water. added TO which are a few

drinks water copiously throughout
the entire day. But there is a right
and a wrong way Of doing every
thing, ever drinking water. To drink
water so hot that 1t really has to
skip oyer your tongue is to injure
the lining OF the stomach. and to
drink hot water exclusively is to in
lure the stomach in some other
equally serious way. Then, again,
hot water must be slipped, not gulped.
The water diet may be varied. Ger
tain fruits and vegetables contain a
very great deal of water. These may
be eaten In quantity, and the system
will be cleansed quite as we'll as by
the actual water drinking. Lime
water is an excellent thing for set

n ATELY there has been quite a
fad for making beautiful
handkerchiefs. Never have 1
seen such lovely. dainty ones as I
have this year-squares Of bright
colored linens, a color for every oc-
casion. Some are appliqued. others
hand-embroidered. while another as
sortment shows the drawn-thread
work.
The reason that the drawn-thread
work appeals to SO many people who
do not care for sewing in the ordi-
nary sense OF the word ia that no
needle is used at all.
Most all the men appreciate a nice
silk handkerchief; but Just think
how expensive they arel The new

A PRETTY WAY TO USE EMBROIDERED SCALLOPS

IF you have a dear little girl tust

a perfectly plain round necked
sleeveless slip with gathered skirt

Jacket is simply a short kimono
sleeved model with hardly anything
more in front than the continuation
Of the shoulder line. That betting
business is interesting. Two belts

conceal themselves in Sits at each
side. Complementary to the belt
treatment is the cutting, and then
that oddly pretty shoulder strapping.
1t is simply tackled along the lines

Silver and Glass Facts

Don't let your table silver stand
about dirty too long; it ruins its
gloss. Even II you stack your dishes
overnight, be sure to wash the silver.
Egg stains can be removed from
spoons by rubbing them with a little
dry salt before washing.
A lump of camphor in the silver
drawer will defer tarnish.
Milky glassware should be rinsed
in cold water before the actual wash
ing.
A little vinegar added to the water
in which glass is washed will add to
the brilliancy OF the ware.
Tea leaves allowed TO stand in
warm soapy water will remove the
stain from the bottom of wine de-
canters.
