Pieced Berets From Abroad

from Austria. I understood from my
enthusiastic young friend that every
one was wearing these caps, too. After
much deliberation she chose an Italian
beret of red and tan felt to add to her
collection, and an Austrian cap OF
black felt with much bright embroidery
upon it. The brim of the cap was
slightly rolled at the front to show a
light lining, and the felt scarf that
went with 1t was also embroidered.
From the same italian source from
which these pieced berets are received
come charming coats for children ma :
of colored cloth pieced in the same
geometrical designs, and with
these little coats there are berets to
match.

The brush end should be short, with a
long handle. The bristles should be of
uneven lengths and not closely set to-
gether.
A new toothbrush should be soaked
in a strong solution Of salt and cold
water for two hours before use, and
any toothbrush should be thoroughly
dried e:eore it is used. For this reason
one should have two. one to use in the
morning and the other for night, BY
the following morning the first brush
will be dry. Hot water should not be
used on the brush since it softens the

The correct way of brushing the
teeth is described by dentist, DR..
Gardner, and I can do no better than
to quote his words: THE bristles of

right angles to the long axis of the
teeth. The brush rests entirely on the
teeth, not on the teeth and the gum
tissue. Pressure is then gently but
firmly applied SO that the bristles will

teeth and penetrate into the spaces be-

as they penetrate will come into con-
tact with the gum tissue and compress
1t. A slight wriggling or vibratory
movement is started, care being taken
to keep the bristles in the spaces where
they have been forced"
Some people believe that the use of
mouth wash obviates the necessity
OF brushing the teeth. This Is a mis-
take; although some of the commercial
lotions OF this kind leave a very cool.

Virtue Is It's Own Reward.

Too often virtue is its own reward,
and the virtuous wants for the neces-
saries of life.
Women were once taught to think
that if cne lived an honest and up
right life, economic success was assured
They learned from bitter experience
that nothing Of the sort is so.
This Is no attempt to disparage vir-
tue, nor to discourage it. It is simply
reminder that virtue alone will not
provide for our material wants.
We know of many hard working
housewives, and you know of them,
too, who never waste a penny. never
squander one, and at the end of end
less years of toll have wracked bodies
and empty purses.
1t would be bitterly ironical to assure
them that virtue is its own reward.
or that their rewards will come later.
These women have earned a substance
for their old age by dint of industry
and thrift. The trouble is they have
failed to collect it.
II one visits the country poor house.
one does not find there selfish, extrava- :
CANT, or dishonest old folks, as a rule.
One finds kindly old people, who have
been too kind to others to be kind to
themselves. One finds there people
whose virtue would never be i'm
pugned.
This is not sad subject. 1t is
rather an educational subject It teach
es us that virtue in itself is laudable.
but one must be self-suf1cient as well.

why not?" persisted the questioner.
The "panner" could give no logical
reason for his dislike of So-and-So's
work, but he carried on with his ar
raignment. knowing nothing of art,
he declared that the artist whom he
was ra2zing was false in his concep-
tions and untrue in his color. The
wiser cnes knew that lack Of appre-
citation and understanding had warped
his judgment. The comments heard
at an art exhibit reveal much Of this
tendency.

scored, can be sliced down with the
meat.
Should you decide to use a canon.
1t may be cooked in the same wav as
the chicken. Capons are larger and
heavier than chicken, and USUALLY have
a little richer flavor. They cost a few
cents more per pound than chickens
but at that are considerably less ex-
pensive than turkey. An average size
capon weighs about seven pounds.
Either domestic or wild duck NAV
be roasted and served with the orange
sauce. Wild ducks are cooked verv
rare and are never stuffed. Seldom
any part of the bird is eaten except
the breast and legs Domestic duck
has more flesh and more fat than the
wild duck. They are always well cook
ed and may be stuffed if desired. An
apple or celery studfng gives excellent
flavor.
For the brown orange sauce which
makes this holiday dish, make the
usual brown gravy and add to it the
grated rind of one orange and one-half
cup of orange Juice. A few slices of
sauted orange may be used to garnish
the dish. For these peel whole firm
oranges, removing every bit of the
white skim cut crosswise In slices one
third inch thick and cook in a little
butter until heated through.

Straight Talks to Women About Money
ELIZABETH ALLEN.

At the end of a lifetime, a life of
virtue may be presented with high
hopes to our Maker. To the material
world in which we live we must pre-
sent material receipts for our labor.
All of US earn them, but they are
easily dissipated in the course of life
time. 1t matters not whether we in
dulge our children, speculate, or spend
prodigally. The result is the same.
There are two sides to life, spirit
ual and physical side We must pro-
vide for both.

MOVIES AND MOVIE PEOPLE
BY MOLLIE MERRICK.

HOLLYWOOD, Calf, November 26.--
The day when a king arrived at the
coronation ceremony without a spare
tire on the back of his car-in the
movies-is passing.
Technical direction is no longer an
empty title in studios, nor is the Office
merely a pleasant way for the producer
or director to hand a salary to friend.
There Is sincere endeavor on the
part of the makers of recent movies to
obtain genuine atmosphere and correct
detail
Greta Garbo's new picture, which has
its locale in Java, is being technically
directed by Capt. Fritz Lyons, former
Heidelberg student, officer in the Ger
man navy and owner of a Javanese
plantation, where he lived for many
years. He contributed the realistic
touches to "Old Heidelberg" under the
direction of Ernst LubitSch, and Las
done some excellent work in submarine
and battleship technical direction.
Mrs. William j. Locke wasn't in Hol-
lywcod week before one of the largest
studios sought out her services for tech
nical direction on a picture which calls
for an English locale.
L. J. O'Connor, warden of San Quen-
tin Prison, has come to Hollywood to
supervise technically the convict life
scenes being made In one of the largest
pictures under way.
Which proves that detail in pictures
Is on the upgrade Audiences are be-
coming more astute and less polite. A
stupid scene wins chuckle that bursts
into a hearty roar. Three or four
hearty roars at the wrong time put a
picture into the second class
Maria Gorda is making another pic
ture, this time opposite Milton Sills.
The blond Maria will show the world
how temperament and sex appeal are
intensified with a Venetian setting
But she will probably keep the tenn
perament in Venice, for her lavish dis
play of 1t on the lot during her last
American engagement nearly cost her
banishment from pictures.

trurn, it had better be one of the Lupe
Velez. vintage. Even that must be done
with fine discrimination. Producers
have way of demoting fiery and un-
tanable ladies until they quench their
erratic natures in the dull medium of
small parts with lots of hard work.
Sue Carol is busy these days making
sound follies picture. Singing and
