ONE REMAINING HOUR

SONDRA put on her hat, and me-
c~hanically arranged a little curl
of hair over each ear beneath the
narrow brim, before she turned
away from the mirror.
Marks wrist-watch, lying on
the dressing-table, together with
his cigarette case and other odds
and ends, showed that it was near
ly ten o'clock, and the boat went
in an hour.
In the little dressing room ad-
joining she could hear Mark
moving about, ramming forgotten
things into his suitcase.
Only one hour left-one little
hour that might be all they would
spend together for the rest of
their lives.
Sondra looked round the room
with blank eyes.
Yesterday morning she and
Mark had been married, and this
morning they were to part-per-
haps for ever.
The last "a hours seemed like a
dream-the hurried arrangements,
the casual excuse to Flora about
going to spend the night with
some friends out Of town--the un-
romantic ceremony at City Hail.

Rugs Cleaned Well
Give Better Wear

XOUR Spring housekeeping will not
be complete unless you have made
plans TO have your floor coverings thor
oughly cleaned. Some housewives seem
to feel that to have rugs thoroughly
cleaned tends to wear them out. On
the contrary, the gritty dust that set
ties on rugs and becomes inbedded in
them cuts the fiber and makes what
ever wear they receive doubly injurious.
II you can afford it all floor cover

cleaning II you cannot do this they

New Five-Toed Stockings
Are Smart With Sandals

CHOES for all occasions show the in
- fuence of sandals Even oxfords
chosen for street wear are cut quite
low and are made with slashes and
perforations; and for afternoon and
evening the leather is usually cut out
entirely at the sides with the portion
of the sole under the instep decidedly
narrow Often the vamp of evening
slippers consists merely of straps Of
fabric or kid.
To follow the sandal idea to its log
ical conclusion a few women at the
resorts have dispensed with stockings,
and some have adopted the new very
sheer f1ve-toed stockings that give q
bare foot effect beneath the straps. The
ma jority of women will of course wear
stockings of the conventional sort, but
they are showing interest in the new
sheer stockings with the usual REIN
forcement at heels and soles consider
ably diminished in area.
Smart new lacing oxfords and pumps
are made without Innings and with box
less toes, giving a new soft appearance
over the toe that is considered very
smart this Spring.
There are some lovely kid sandals,
with perforated toes and scalloped heel
sections at the back OF the foot. that
are held on with long silk strings that
lace through the fronts and backs of
the shoes and tie around the ankles 10
hold them N place.

Lay one rug down at a time. Warm
water, ammonia and a pure soap with
clean cloths and strong but not toe
coarse brush will be needed.
To basin or pan of clear water add
a teaspoonful Of ammonia. A cake OF
soap should be conveniently at hand in
q small plate or saucer A second basin
of warm water should be kept at hand
also.
Now dip the brush in the ammonia
water and then soap it thoroughly and
rub a small space of the rug-two feet
square is large enough. Allow the soap
suds to flow freely Then with clean
cloth dipped in the clear water rinse
off the soap suds before going on with
another patch OF the rug.
Excellent results may be gained by
using a soft soap jelly made by boiling
pure soap chips with water and little
ammonia and allowing to cool.
Care should be taken in drying the
rugs cleaned in this way to make sure
that they dry without puckering. II
you have a good sized outside verafda
or porch, the rugs may be spread fat
there. Heavy weights such as fiat irons
may be placed at the corners to keep
them from drawing up.

There are some equally interesting
sandals, with high spike heels, that de-
pend on a buckle strap about the ankle.
These are cut out in most attractive
designs over toes and around the heel
section.
For the woman who likes a regula-
ton oxford for city wear there are very
smart designs with high heels, rounded
toes, silk tie strings. These shoes are
stitched In darker or lighter shade
tnan that OF the kid, which comes in
blue, black or brown. This model aives
support to the foot and is SO thin, Sd
comfortable. SO easy to wear, that MANY
women prefer it to the more open
sandal. =
For country wear the clodhopper type
OF shoe may be chosen. These heavy
country-wear shoes are cut SO that they
give good arch support to the foot that
prefers a heel not too low. For they
are made with fairly high heels. The
neeIs, OF course, are of leather, layer on
layer-not kid covered. The shoes, too,
are OF leather-not of kid. For hard
wear In country tramping or for golf
they are admirable shoes.

Of metal brocade In vari-coIor trimmed

A MEXICAN women are. according to
critics, fairly we'll dressed. They
are neat and smart and have certain
faculty for wearing clothes to good ad-
vantage. American women are more
and more interested in dress and ap-
preciate as much as any women in the
world the Importance of being well
dressed. I was talking to the buyer of
an important dress shop who had just
come home from Paris and so far we
agreed perfectly.
But" she said. American women
are still little lazy. 1 don't mean lazy
about seeing that their clothes are kept
in good condition or about buying new
things when they need them. But,
compared to French women, they are
little lazy In the matter Of flt and
adjustment So many of the dresses
nowadays have a closing under the left
arm, fitted with hooks and eyes. This
makes it possible to wear a dress of the
easy slip-On sort and still have 1t fit
closely over hips and waist. Well, in
France when a woman buys dress
ready made, she makes sure that this
closing is properly adjusted. With the
majority of women in this country
at least the slender ones-that left side
opening might just as well be omitted.
Seven women out of ten actually prefer
to have it seWed up-even in stores

to be settled for the time being. Fashion
has other things to focus attention on
at the present time. sleeves, wider
shoulders, snugger waiStlines and the
questions of fabrics and color. True
enough there have been no recent
changes in skirt lengths. The impor-
tant dressmakers in Paris have left
them pretty much where they were last
year. But it is still a question that de-
serves the close attention of well
dressed women because the whole for
tune OF dress may be made or marred
by an inch too much or too little in the
length of the skirt.
Standing directly before a pier glass
in fitting room, you really cannot get
precisely the right idea Of the length
OF the dress you are wearing. If YOU
wish to be the judge of the right length
you should stand at least 10 or IL feet
from the mirror.
Ihere are as many women this wear
who are wearing their daytime skirts
100 long as those who are wearing them
TOO short. If you are exceptionally tall
and at the same time slender YOU NAV

OF your size that is quite as long as it
snould be. Then, rather than buy a
oresS that is too short, 1t Is q good plan

Vldes the needed length, having the
necessary alterations done to make the
dress suit your figure
