The idea. expressed with slight va.

replete with ruff1es. ribbons and laces.
We may like to see them brought out
for fancy dress parties. but to the
women of today no doubt they look
somewhat "tiXy." Whether express
ed in under or outer garments. the
desire for the exquisite remains much
the same.
Ma material seems too sheer, dainty
or costly to enter into the making of
lingerie now. To some women the
Softness of silk is most welcome, and
others prefer the laundering virtues
of fine cotton linen or voile. style
of decora ton suited to any and all Is
spoken of today and recommended to
those who have an ability at plying
needle, be ii ever SO slight. The ap-
plique for lingerie. popular in Paris.
and among the newest of the styles
here, can be ingeniously devised with
small outlay.
Distinctive Feature.
Most appliques are put on the out
side of the thing they adorn. The
novel feature of this applique is that
ii Is put beneath ii. Thus delicate
and illusiye effect is obtained when,
for instance. pink Is placed beneath
sheer white goods in pattern that
is graceful and pleasing.
How to Make.
The effect is not unlike that of the
shadow embroidery which was
popular for Summer dresses at one
time. But that was apt to be only in
white. 1t is the contrast which gives
the new applique its distinction.
To make applique embroidery for
underwear first select or copy sim
Pile design. Perhaps it is nothing
more than five -petalled flower which
almost any one can cut from paper.
Patterns for leaves can be made very
easily by cutting an oval and making
the ends of it pointed.
Very likely your bag of silk or cloth
pieces will yield some scraps which
will be well adapted to this kind of
work. II is not even necessary that
they match. They should, of course,
harmonic. Draw or stamp the pat
tern on the colored goods and cut out
leaving a margin OF about Il of An
inch. This is to allow for turning in
the edges. Turn and haste so that
the line Of pattern comes on every
edge. Lay on the wrong side of your
piece of underwear. haste into posi-
ton. or pin. Next blind stitch the
edges or hem the edges. or run. Or
YOU may run them with fine stitch
if you prefer. Let the raw edges
come between the goods and the annli-
que. Then each side has finished
appearance.

Many are the stories the French
tell of their own special patron
saint. Joan of Arc, who by her bray
cry and courage restored the king
dom of France when it was crumbling
to pieces.
Now Joan of Arc was just an or
dinary little peasant girl. She was
born in Domremv. a small village
on the left bank of the Meuse, on
the sith day of January. 1872. The
valley in which Joan lived was fair
and fertile, full of beautiful flowers.
birds and trees. In her early years
Joan used to run and play over the
hills with the other little boys and
girls. but AS she became older she
was pointed out as different from the
others. She was more sober and
thoughtful.
Here is Joan At the age Of II,
when she heard her countrys call.

her cheeks a very, very faint pink.
Her peasants dress should be navy

the waist. Tomorrow strange cos

treat them gently. A few careless

The sleeves should be made fairly

can be let down if need be. A small

Sometimes there are little scarf ends
at the neck. so that the collar can be
tied securely. If you like. you may
combine two colors or two designs in A

might have the trousers made of pink

A Scalp Treatment,

We are apt to forget the simplest
and most effective scalp treatment
there is-giVing the head a good
brushing every day. Some hair-dress-
ing shops say that the only thing
they have against bobbed and shingled
.hair Is that women have taken to
using combs and never touch A hair
brush from one month to another.
Now. the advanta ges of brushing
the hair are: First, that brushing
stimulates the scalp, bringing new
blood up TO feed the roots. and send
ins fresh supply of oil to make the
hair glossy: secondly. that the bristles
clean the hair. Properly brushed hair
need be shampooed but half as often.
One reason why bobbed hair needs
frequent washing is that 1T is rarely
thoroughly brushed; another. that it
flies about more and picks up more
dust.
Buy either good military brushes or
long bristled brush very stiff one.
and do not economize any more than
necessary. Many brushes come with
the bristles set in rubber pads, which
gives them greater f1exibility. Use
them, or the ordinary bristle Kind,

set and fairly long. Don't buy cheap
