Fur in Demand for Wraps

prepared bv the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
American women wear more fur
than those of any other country, eS-
pecially in the northern states, where
the winter climate requires plenty of
protection from the cold. Ii is prac-
tically national characteristic to
like to be comfortable wherever we
are, and so. while we heat our houses
sufficiently warm to go lightly clad
indoors, out-of-doOrs we want to be
warmly dressed. The fur coat has
proved ideal for our winter needs.
If our coats are not made entirely of
fur they are usually trimmed with it.
particularly having fur collars and
cuffs.
The demand for fur garments or
r-trimmed garments has greatly
stimulated the production of fur-bear-
ing animals on farms" as well as
the hunting and trapping of wild fur
bearers in the proper seasons. Pelts
from a great variety of animals are
being marketed. SO that there are fur
garments to be bought within the
means of almost every one. The skins
of rabbits are dressed and prepared
to meet the requirements for less ex-
pensive fur garments that look like
those made from more costly furS. A
vigorous campaign against any mis-
representation as to what a fur really
is has been carried on by reputable
fur dealers. and If a woman who in
tends to buy a fur coat deals only
with q furrier who can be trusted, she
will find that he states plainly what
kind of fur is used in any garment
shown her and and that he will ex-
plain its qualities fully.
There is no objection! for instance,
to buying rabbit that looks like seal,
ermine. leopard. or any other fur if you
know what you are getting. Rabbit

wear like rabbit skin, no better and
no worse A white evening wrap
made of rabbit but appearing like
ermine, will probably answer its pur-
pose very well. The coat in the illus
tratlon is made of rabbit skins dyed
to look like leopard. The red fox
trimming is genuine. Such a coat

male" "Coney-leopard," "Kit-coney"
and "Lapin" are other names for
plain rabbit. "Genet fur" is cat fur;
isabella fox" is an improper name
for domestic dog, dyed and curled.
There are a great many other names
one is likely to encounter when trying
to select a fur garment.
Long experience and a highly spe-
cialized knowledge of all furs are
therefore necessary to a discriminate
ing selection. The average woman

therefore important to store these two
foods in the coolest part of the re-
frigerator, and LET fruits, vegetables,
and other foods take second place.
The coolest place varies in different
types of refrigerator, as shown in
the accompanying diagrams.
You can find out where the coolest
section is in your own refrigerator
by leaving a thermometer for an hour
or two at a time in each part of the
box, and recording the temperatures
for comparison. Keep the refrig-
orator doors closed during this test
and If ii is an ice-cOOled cabinet be
sure that there is the same quantity
of ice in both cases. Also the room
temperature must be about the same,
for all of these things make a differ
ence in the refrigerator temperatures.
much better way would be to use
two thermometers and test two places
at once. for then you would surely
have comparable conditions.
Cold air descends, warm air rises.
Hence, a current of cold air moves
steadily downward from the ice cham
Der or the refrigerating unit. AS the
air passes on its course through the
refrigerator and takes up the heat
leaking into the box and from the
various articles stored, the tempera-
ture is raised. Consequently the cold
est spot is that reached first by the
air as il leaves the refrigeratino com
partment and is usually Immediately
below it. Study the construction of
your own refrigerator, and look for
the cold air duct that guides the circu-
iatiQn in many boxes. This will help
you to find the. coolest place. Other
parts of your refrigerator may have
temperatures sufficiently low for ordi-
nary food storage, but ii is better to
be on the safe side with meat and
milk and put them in the part that
has been proved coolest.

In 1875, an earnest young man
began to practice medicine. AS a
family doctor, he saw the harm III
harsh purgatives for constipation
and began to search for something
harmless to the sensitive bowels.
Out of his experience was born
a famous prescription. He wrote it
thousands Of times. It proved an
ideal laxative for old and young.
AS people saw how marvelously the
most sluggish bowels are started
and bad breath, headaches, fever
ishness, nausea, gas, poor appetite,
and such disorders, are relieved by
the prescription, it became neces-
sary to put it up ready for use.
