Scarfs Are Interesting and Varied
BY MARY MARSHALL.

Scarfs show no signs of passing from
fashion this season. In fact. there
never has been q time when scarfs were
more interesting or more varied. Aad
there Is no time of the day and no oc-
casion when q carefully selected and
cleverly worn scarf Is not appropriate.
81 am thinking of getting q suit Of
silk or some lightweight material to
wear with light blouse for afternoon
and Sunday. Would this be appropriate
to wear under a coat In the winter and
as suitable as a one-piece dress? What
color would you suggeSt?"
Black satin jacket suits with finger
tip length jackets are very smart. The
choice Of color should depend or. the
color of the coat you intend to wear
over it. A costume of this sort is most
useful for afternoon and may be varied
by wearing 1t with different blouses.
This weeks illustrated circular gives
directions for making two of the new
scarfs. One advantage in making them
yourself is that you may use material
to match dress you are making. II
you would like copy, please send your
stamped, self-addressed envelope 10
Mary Marshall, care of this paper, and
1t will be forwarded to you.

At this time the feverish child. the
youngster with bad breath or swollen
throat can be detected without undue
fuss. I think 1t would be fine thing
for mothers to keep as watchful an eye
on their children.
There Is no set program for the
days activities with the exception of
q mid-morning lunch, lunch itself and
a rest period. But these three are as
fixed as can be. The children have to
lie quietly, even though they cannot
sleep all through the rest period.
"They have outdoor activities when
weather permits. They plant bulbs and
wait, oh, so anxiously, for them to
come up. They learn to balance them
selves by walking along broad planks
fixed at varying heights. They set
tables, wait on each other, play hostess,
learn orderliness and courtesy. And,
best Of all, it Is done In such pleasing
way that they never know they are
forming habits which Will make them
better citizens"

that good health and good looks are
closely related. The girl who is starv-
ing herself in order to lose weight, who
omits breakfast and eats an inadequate
lunch Is seriously undermining her con-
Stitution. Her complexion looks dull
and paSty. Growing girls need more
food than mature women of the same
height and weight. The wrong choice
of foods upsets the digestive system and
may bring on beauty's worst enemy,
constipation, and the skin becomes sal
low. coarse and blemished.
This brings us to the question of
makeup for young girls. The girl who
early acquires the habit of loading her
face with powder and rouge will soon
ruin her complexion. It will become
peppered with blackheads, enlarged
pores and often pimples. The dry rouge
and powder settle in the pores. and
when moistened by the natural oil and
sweat on the skin, they expand, stretch
ing the pores open wide. The presence
of blackheads shows that the skin is
not being thoroughly cleansed each day.
AS one grows older the skin on the face
full bloom and delicacy: then is the time
to begin using makeup regularly.
Sleep is an important factor in the
schoolgirls beauty program. Lack OF
sufficient sleep causes ugly shadows
under the eyes. dulls the eyes them
selves and makes one nervous and irri-
table. It has been estimated that girls
from IL to II years of age should sleep
10 or 1917 hours every night; girls from
IA to Is need little less: girls from
Is to Is years Of age need from to
9H hours of restful slumber out Of each
"a hours.
Schoolgirls should not be bothered
with facial wrinkles, but as a matter
Of fact, many of them are. Wrinkles

Confidence.

Text: ''In confidence shall be your
strength. Isaiah, xxx-15.
This applies in worldly Affairs as
well as religious affairs.
In practical life, as in spiritual life.
confidence makes for strength and
victory.
Some one has written: zone law of
success is to have supreme confidence
In your proposition, with the understand
ing, Of course, that your proposition Is
sound. Confidence is born Of faith. AL
great successes. no matter how worldly
or how purely financial, have been built
on faith"
The first thing is to make sure that
your proposition is sound. Do not be-
too quick to jump at a thing. Before
you undertake an enterprise, think the
matter through. Study all the facts
and use your Judgment. Let sound
reason and sound judgment be your
guide and never begin thing until you
can begin it with the assurance that 1t
Is something worth while and feasible.
Having made sure Of the Soundness
mitted yourself to it, then stick to it
and see it through. Never mind dim
culties. Never mind opposition. Never
mind a few set-backS. Hold fast to
your confidence and keep pushing on

strength" II your confidence fails.
your strength will fail. You will lose
your pep and enthusiasm. You will
become hesitant and backward about
pushing your cause. Unless you believe
In your cause you cannot devote your
self to 1t with energy and vigor. Be-
sides, unless you are sold on your enter
prise, you cannot sell it to anybody else.
Many fail, not because they lack
ability or industry, not because they
lack being in the right business or
favorable conditions, but because they
lack confidence. To succeed you must
have, above all, confidence In your
proposition.

fill it with feathers or any preferred
filling. The outside cover can be all in
one color, keeping strictly to the idea
of a silhouette, or each item Of the
costume can be done In the color used
in the pattern which you are copying
If preferred, the fancy frock can be
Sewed directly onto the inner cushion
cover before it is filled. Or the costume
can be put together like patchwork
until separate cover is made. Leave
the hem Of the skirt open and slip the
doll inside. Then seam the two open
edges of front and back portions Of tie
skirt together along the lower edge.
A butterfly cushion is exquisite when
the wings are of colored satin and the
body of black and the markings are
embroidered in silk. Such a pillow
suits a handsomely furnished living
room. A simpler butterfly cushion. well
adapted to use on a porch or in I'm
parlor, is made of plain colored cotton
or linen textiles with the spots licked
out in contrasting colors Of the same
fabric and appliqued to the wings. A
butterfly pattern can be mad. fro n a
picture Of this winged insect, and
gradually enlarged, as described for
the doll cushion.

Silhouette and toy cushions are the

In building house there are often
more large wall spaces than are pleas
ing for one room, and in view Of the
idea that there may be plenty of win
dows there Is always q problem facing
the homemaker.
In the illustration Is shown an at
tractive arrangement which takes care
of a very large wall space at the end
of generous sized alcove. The builder
felt that q row Of three or four win
dows would make the room appear very
ordinary, but the two windows with
rows of book shelves on each side and
all included In an arched recess made
it possible to make the spot not only
decorative but highly practical.
The woodwork has been finished to
match that In the rest of the room
and the interior of the shelves has b.en
tinted in shade contrasting with that
selected for the walls, which are neu-
tral. Green would be pleasing for an
interior against which to place, the
many-colored books. and the curtains
for a window such as this should match
the other glass curtains used In the
room.

Quick Pies.

When you make pastry, make for two
or more pies. Fresh fruit or berry pies
that have stood over night, allowing the
crust to become moist, are never good.
Cut out the pastry for the second or
third pie at the time you make the first,
then place the extra ones between sheets
of waxed paper, roll again, pinching the
ends Of the paper to exclude air, and
put away inSthe ice box. Next day the
second pies can be made with very little
trouble.

extremely important one for every girl,
because 1t is during this period that she
forms the mental and physical habits
that will go through life with her. Dur
ing these busy years she may lay the
foundations for a beautiful, healthy
womanhood or through ignorance or
neglect she may undermine her physical
fitness and cheat herself of her rightful
