TO simple, informal frocks, and by the same
token, elaborate jewelry of the court type should
be worn for evening and daytime formal oc-
casions.
For general wear, there Is nothing 50 smart
as a hat of blue bakou, especially since blue
energies as the most important hue for Spring.
The hat sketched for this page is of dark blue
bakou with an inset Of white placed diagonally
across the crown. Such n hat would be ideal
with a blue or gray suit or q silk ensemble.
The necklace is of round crystal beads with
carved crystal ornaments and IL would be ideal
with a frock of black g~eorgette or chiffon. A
trig tailored frock Of tweed would be enhanced
by the belt shown here which is Of reptile with a
brown leather edging, silver buckle and clasps.

This is all wrong. But why is it wrong?'
you ask. Well, teeth were given US for several
very good reasons. They are needed to cut and
grind the food. But the important fact Is that
digestion begins in the mouth.
1t is not properly begun unless the food is
thoroughly chewed and moistened by the saliva.
This secretion Of the mouth glands should be
added before the food is swallowed. The first
stage Of digestion is thus well begun. The saliva
contains a "ferment," a substance which begins
the digestion of starchy foods.
When the food is well-chewed IL Is a soft,
moist mass. Vegetables, cereals, bread and fruits
have their digestion started in this way.
Food cannot be absorbed and assimilated IN
less il is liquifed. For this reason the saliva Of
the mouth IS important. The juices and digestive
ferments of the stomach and intestine NAV be
