Instead OF buying a large quantity

cook may select a small quantity of
two or three kinds and. by skillful

out OF quite simple items.
Salads especially lend themselves
70 this sort OF handling. and many
who will nihble only n lettuce leaf

Once more the only remedy IL 70

Among the preparations we have
for bleaching freckles. are found
lemon juice. buttermilk. peroxide.

already prepared beaches offered by
manufacturers OF cosmetics.
Pure lemon Juice is the mildest OF
these bleaching agents and II used
consistently win work. However. it's
a matter OF applying the lemon juice
several times each day. at least night
and morning. and this should be
done for a week or 50 before ex-
pecting results. The anne Is true
with buttermilk. although either Of
these two mild preparations are the
safest and best 70 use. for. although
their action is mild and so slow
there need be no fear OF injuring the
skin.
Peroxide frequently hleaches the
freckles more quickly than lemon
juice and buttermilk and It may be

bleaching action Is stronger and
quicker than lemon Juice and butter.
milk and for this reason care should
be exercised in using II. Not that
II Is harmful in the least but because
il ma leave tiny spots. which are
whittier than the general coioring OF
the skin. necessitating the entire
bleaching OF the face and throat.
Other than that Il Is safe and sane.
Peroxide and ammonia. sometimes
used I'm cases where the freckles are
OF long standing and are unusually
stubborn. Is reliable as a bleach. but
extreme caution should be used in
applying this preparation 10 the

three drops or household ammonia.

comment as she looked over our new
stock OF footwear this morning.
There seems 70 be no doubt that
she was right. While last season
we were more or less content 20 vent

early Spring models show that the
leather market has taken 20 new and
interesting tints. or those that we
are seeing now navy Is probably the
most dominant This is quite logical
In view OF the numbers or navy-blue
costumes that are appearing. The
most favored method for introduce
ing color TO q dainty foot. however.
seems to be by imposing a color. say
green. and white on a black patent
leather model. The color works out
a pattern or decorative motif on the
glossy surface. The two and three
color effects that are being used 50
consistently and successfully for
frocks and gowns OF the new mode
are repeated In the shoe. Eyelets
Of oxfords are for instance. bound
In white and perhaps brown will be
used on beige or beige on brown.
There seems TO be no doubt though
that the much loved patent leather
shoe in black Is going 20 shine forth
from many a well-planned wardrobe.
We also had several pairs or navy
blue patent leather slippers which
were extremely good-iooking.
Most decorative was u ralr az
black crepe mules with gold kid trim
ming and heels. A ruffIe OF the
crepe circled the lnstep and added
a distinctive quality 70 the slippers.
For Southern wear there was m

Temporary Loan
 Of $500, ,O0O Is
 Absorbed Here
lions Have Carried City = Credit of City Good and Sound Condition of Banks Evident

Waterbury's floating indebted ness is now being financed by the banks of Waterbury, the first time that such a situation has existed in many, many years. This fact was disclosed to-day when 1t was learn ed that in renewing the $600,000 temporary loan on Monday, Con- troller Daniel J. Leary and Execu- tive Secretary Thomas P. Kelly raised the funds in local banking institutions, thereby taking the municipal business along this line away from New York and Boston houses.
 At the present time the city's floating Indebtedness is $600,0O0 On Monday $400, 900 was paid off Q of the outstanding debt of $1,000,- 900, leaving the present $600,000 figure. Rather than go to New York or Boston houses for the $600,0 900 on renewal, though, Controller Leary and Secretary Kelly negotiated with local banks and were accom- modated,
 This action on the part of the Watergury banks points to two things, it was remarked to-day. First it shows that the credit of the municipality is very good and second it indicates a very sound condition in the local banks when they can meet such heavy de- maiid for funds.
 When Mayor Frank Hayes first took office, he entered into an agreement with the banks where by the latter agreed to give the city credit up to s1,000,000. This, though, is the first time that the
