Comfort Of Bed Depends
on Making Tt Properly

Do you know how to make a bed
so that it looks neat and is comfort
able to sleep in? It is an art worth
learning, says the United States De
partment of Agriculture. First,
straighten the mattress pad so that it
lies smooth and without wrinkles.
over this, spread the under sheet,
right side up, with the wide hem at
the head and the center of the sheet
to the center Of the bed. The comfort
of bed depends in large measure
on tucking in the under sheet so Sc
curely that it remains smooth and
straight. Making inferred corners is
one Of the best ways of doing this,
and any person who has had nurses
training can quickly show you how
to make them. Next, put on the upper
sheet, right side down and allowing
for generous turnover at the head.
tuck it in at the foot, using mitered
corners. Then, put on the blankets so
that their top edge comes about nine
inches below the head of the bed, turn
the upper sheet back and tuck in all
edges. Last of all, put on the spread,
draw it smooth and straight, and ar
range the pillows.

Corded Materials Are
Again Given Approval

The twills of other seasons are be-
ing replaced by wool rep, and ribbed
md corded materials are featured ex-
tensively in all fabrics. In combina-
tion with silk and artificial silk a
surface is effected which adds rich
ness to the simple untrimmed frock Of
today.
Such a tendency toward corded ma
terials recalls the ottoman Of. our
grandmothers best gown: The skill
and technique Of the textile designer
and manufacturer today has made it
possible to revive these rich materials
with all the suppleness that fashion
demands.
In the world Of cottons, organdie
has given way to her unstarched sis
fer. batiste. Soft ecru tones in batiste
and lace alternating around bouffant
skirt fashion a dance freck for the
Youthful, and a rosette Of ribbon flow
ers in pastel tones with streamers of
color dropping to the, hem emphasizes
the low waistline where skirt and
bodice join.
All-over embroideries on a wolfe and
crepe background are prominent and
there is a feeling Of the colonial spirit
in the patterning, although in many
Instances the spirit of 1880 is evil
denced, as in printed silks.

THICK SOUP MAY BE

Novelty Fabrics Used

Novelty fabrics are employed in the
development of youthful coats and

Striped, checked and solid colored

KEEP EGGS PROPERLY
IN GOOD CONTAINERS
Keeping Quality Affected in
Various Ways.

CPrepared by the United States Department

AS soon as eggs are brought fron
the poultry yard or the market, they
should be sorted, and any cracked or
soiled ones removed for immediate
use, advises the United States Depart.
ment of Agriculture in new Farm
ers' Bulletin, 1874, entitled "Care Of
Food in the Home"
The keeping quality Of eggs is seri-
ously affected by rough handling,

in covered container in dry, clean
place where the temperature is not

using, because water removs# the pro-

The department will supply Informs
ton as to how to do this by either
method Fresh, clean, unwashed, in
fertile eggs should be used for this
purpose, and they should not be left
in the preservative for more than a
year. Eggs preserved in water glass
or other solution should be rinsed
with water and wiped dry before be-
ing opened, but eggs should not be
washed before being put into the
preservative. If such eggs are cooked
in the shell, small hole should be
pricked in the large end before put
ting them into the hot water; other
wise the shell is likely to crack, for
the pores have been sealed by the
preserving solution.

Shorter Skirt Favored
by Designers In Paris

From Paris come reports that
skirts are noticeably shorter, but as
vet American women have not taken
up the new length While very long
skirts are not seen, IL is quite appar-
ent that women regulate the length of
their skirts to conform to their type
and lines.
In evening frocks, particularly those
of the period type, skirts barely es-
cape the insteps, but for any other
purpose they are about eight inches
from the floor.
The little cape either as part Of a
frock or as a separate wrap continues
to hold its own, and in a new version
it appears as an integral part Of a
bathing suit TO be worn the coming
summer.
These suits, by the way, are the last
word in beach costumes and are won
derfully attractive. Made of mohair in
shades of madonna blue, of soft gray
green and Of Chinese red, they have
little round collars Of fine white piQue
and fasten with white pearl buttons.
The tunic reaches just above the
knees, allowing several inches of
knickers to be seen. The long sleeves
are finished with cuffs Of piQue and
there is d short circular cape that
fastens onto the sleeves with fat but.
tons.
A cape similar in style is feature
Of the costume. Charming in its
straight lines, it is developed in heavy
white tussor with conventional motifs
embroidered in myrtle green silk. The
dress is beltless and fastens with
loops and self-coyered buttons.
