Knitting needles are used to make
charming trimming on some Of the
little Spring hats. This consists of
rather short, stout knitting needles
with large top of silver or rhine
stones, The needle is then thrust
through the folds of the felt or straw
hat at any jaunty angle. For the
side or front of hat there are IN
teresting pendants that may be
sewed in place or attached by means
of pin at the end. Some of these
pendants consist of onyx and rhine
stones. A new one is of painted
galalith with a long black silk
tassel.
Ornaments in the shape of small
horseshoes are made of galalith or
metal. They are very easily thrust
into the front of a hat by means OF
the pin to which they are attached.
Small pieces of colored glass are put
together in a small design in some

crystal drop.
Silver cut-outs consisting of rather
elaborate designs or Chinese or Japa-

or silk, which is then wrapped

do not cut the live skin OF your foot.
If you do by any chance, treat the
cut as a real wound, make 1t anti

so the stocking does not touch II.
Having pared down the corns and
scraped off the callouses, touch the
places with a little collodion, which
heals and takes out soreness. Keep
little cotton strapped over the corns
with a bit of adhesive tape for day
or so, having first put a little cold
cream or some oily stun over the

Fish Is not used enough in most

view of providing g. substitute for
meat, and from che point OF view Of
economy, It is q good thing. To be
sure, some women dislike cooking
fish very strongly-that is, they dis
like washing up tho cooking utensils
after cooking it. But plenty of good
soap and hot water ought to make
this consideration unimportant.
The thing to do is TO watch the
