Scarfs are as much in the picture
es ever. But they are different from
the scarfs that have gone before. They
are not just scarfs, but an integral part
OF ihe costume with which they are
worn. One does not wear a scarf Just
for the sake of wearing one or merely
as a matter of course, but because the
costume with which it Is worn would
be incomplete without ole.
With many of the new sports dresses
and suits there are oblong scarfs of

Pennies for Thoughts.

Mr.. Rockefeller hands out o shiny
dime where another person gives q
mere handshake. He offers you his
hand plus 10 cents. But Just now ne
Is giving out o poem which is worth its
weight in silver ct least. Mr.. Rookie
teller has had 1t printed on handsome
card so that it makes neat and handy
gift.
This poem was written by an English
servant girl who finds inspiration in
pots and pans, in washing dishes and
shining shoes. Poets usually depend
upon stars and flowers, or love and
valor. What this unknown poetesS says
OF herself Is unusually interesting.
Although must have Martha's
hands, have Mary mind" which
shows that the Bible Is being read in
Canada, where this girl lives. Most
girls, If they consider it at all, think
they must have either the Martha or
the Mary personality. But this girl
claims that she has both together. Her
kitchen and her poem prove 1t.
The Martha mind is that which
makes a woman serve and work. Most
women have this sort of brain because
their lives are, or have been, of the
serving, working sort. The Mary mind
Is much rarer. We flnd 1t In Mrs.
Browning or Nine. Curie or some other
talented woman. It Is the mind which
contemplateS true and beautiful things.
If your Martha mind makes you drudge
along over the days work, watch the
clock and count up the hours until the
boy friend appears, you need touch
Of the Mary mind. One should not be
too faithful to duty; that Is, so faithful
cS to make the duty blot on. ones per-
sonality. That sort Of mind cooks up
work without seasoning 1t.
The Mary mind Is supposed naturally
to be Of the nobler sort and this Ca
madam servant girl knows that, all right.
But If the Mary brain is all dreams and
cobwebs, 1t won't get its owner any
where. You have to dream with q pur-
pose to it and put a kick into your
Imagination.
What a girl of today should do is
just what this talented servant Is do
ing-bring the two together so that Mary
and Martha shall kiss each other. You
can do that II you put ideas into your
work and work into your ideas.
Let the boys be the robots II they
want to, since robots were invented by
man. We want to work In such way
that we shall know what we are doing
and why, If we can. Then we want to
make the dreamy Mary mind work out
something worth while.
A worm can weave the finest silk, If
it's that kind Of worm. Woman's
dreams, by the way, are yet to be heard
from except here and there. When
Mary gets the Martha mind, we'll hear
from her.

Rub a raw potato over the alu-

Keep q steel crochet hook

that may accumulate around the

Steamed buildings can be made
prior to serving. They can be
cooled, stored in q cold place and,
when desired for serving, can be
quickly heated in a double boiler.
Colored handkerchiefS require q
little more care in washing than

soaked for 10 minutes in q basin
Of tepid water to which a tea
spoonful of turpentine has been
added. This will insure their re-
tanning their color, and after the
