Selecting Flower Jars.

There are so many simple and
attractive flower jars from which to
choose that we wonder at the lack
of taste displayed so often in the
purchase of this type of cOntainer.
They may be purchased at prices to
suit any pocketbook and, to be really
successful, it is important that they
combine the three essential elements,
beauty, utility and an individuality
of their own.
In order to meet these three acid
tests 1t Is necessary that the shopper
bear in mind the uses to which they
are to be put. If for cut flowers, they
should not be too ornately decorated
themselves, as the Jar should be only
a setting for the flowers. and should
not call attention too ostentatiously
to It's own charms.
In selecting such a jar look for a
combination of beauty of coloring and
simplicity of decoration, as well as
attractiveness and utility of form.
Many flower jars are so slender at
| the bottom that they tip over easily
when filled with flowers. Others have
the opening at the top so small that
they hold too few stems to be prac-
! tical. Others are too tall TO be used
to advantage with most blossoms.
There are two kinds of vases, those
which are intended to hold flowers
| and those which are intended to be
admired solely as an ornament them
| selves. These latter are frequently
in the most graceful shapes, but are
entirely unsuited for holding bouquets
! They often are elaborately decorated
with gold or silver, and sometimes
are made of several kinds of glass
Some are in forms resembling flowers
and are even colored in naturalistiC
tints TO make the resemblance more
complete.
The flower holders are shaped ac

New Hats and Wraps of Velvet
BY MARY MARSHALL.

fine pleats. Another thing that she
does is to use velvet facings in con-
traStinS ColOrS. A beige coatt from
Jenny has green velvet facings on the
reverS, and she uses numerous bands
of velvet as trimming for cloth froCkS.
Soft but gay tones, such as old pink,
a Subdued greenish blue, ashes of
roses, are to be found in these velvet
trimmings used on dark colored frockS.
BeChoff, we are told, is lining a num-
Der of his finest fur wraps for Autumn
with velvet. This is not an entirely
new note. The velvet used for this
purpose is usually of the softest panne
variety and so lacks the tendency to
cling that is very often a drawback
with velvet Innings. One of the most
discussed garments of the season is
an evening wrap from Martial ct
Armand of absinthe velvet lined with
gold tissue, on which are worked ap-
pliques of shaded roSe-color velvet,
which take the form of convention
allied petals
And what do you think of the
black chiffon velvet capes that they
wore at the Paris races this Summer
as protection over the light-toned,
lightweight frocks? Many persons
considered them one of the most in
teresting style developments of the
seasons.
Looking forward to cooler evenings
in late Summer and early Autumn, the
dressmakers have made lovely eve
ming wraps of velvet. The sketch
shows one of a rich dark red velvet
with roses at collar and hem made
of the dark red velvet and a brighter
shade.

My Neighbor Says:

Rust may be removed from
knives if they are soaked in
kerosene a little while. The oil
loosens the rust.
Try cleaning spinach or any
greens with hot water instead of
cold, using a long handled skim
mer instead of your hands. You
will find all the grit in the bot
tom of your pan and your spin
aCh clean and also shrunk. 1t
may be cleaned this way in less
than half the time it ordinarily
takes.
Do not grease your cake pans
with butter. 1t is likely TO make
your cake burn on the bottom.
A little shredded cocoanut
sprinkled over any plain pud-
ding or jelly makes it look like
a rich dessert.
Rub the top of your stove
with a piece of newspaper occa-
sionally and it won't have TO be
BACKED so often.
If a watch or small clock is
kept on a table by a sick bed a
good plan is TO cover the watch
with a tumbler. 1t will then be
seen, but not heard.
When butter is hard and you
wish to make sandwiches, thor
oughly heat a bowl and turn it
over the butter. 1t will soften
the butter throughout.
To clean a bread mixer pour
boiling water into 1t, cover with
a towel, put the cover on and
let it stand 10 minutes. 1t
shortens labor.
