Delightful-a luncheon set of these lacy, hand-woven doilies! And you'll enjoy weaving them yourself.
 To make your loom, cut 16 notch- .es on a circle of cardboard-a 17th notch between any two.
 Begin warp by pasting an end of cottun thread to center of circle. Now draw thread through a notch and carry 1t around through the adjacent notch. Then draw thread straight across loom and through another two notches. Wind through all notches this way.
 To weave, thread loose end of cotton through needle and, starC- ing at the center. go over and un- der wsrp threads. After a few rows, begin the lacy pattern-weav- ing back and forth for several rows on the same few warp threads. Now skip diagonally across the adjacent threads, as our diagram shows, and begin weaving on the next group of threads. And so on around the circle.
 Fun to weave other lovely things. too-a gay pillow top on a dish cloth base, a cellophane evening bag on a breadboard loom.
 Our S2-page booklet gives com- plete instructions for these and many other attractive articles for home and personal use-among them scarves, belts, afghans, rag rugs, chairback sets.
 Send 10c in coin for your copy of HOW TO WEAVE USEFUL NOVELTIES to the Waterbury Democrat Home Service, 635 Sixth Ave-, New York, N. Y. Be sure to write plainly your NAME, AD- DRESS, and the NAME of booklet

 Few and far between are styles that are universally becoming.
 For the most part, each and every woman has to searot1 for clothes which will dramatize her own best features and minimize less attractive ones.
 The girl with long face should by all means avoid necklaces with drooping pendants at the front. The, pendants only tend to elongate the already too long line from forehead to chin. However, If she wears g pendant necklace Backwards, the re. verse effect Is achieved. Choker beads are better for her than chest- length ones. She should skip long, dangling earrings.
 TRICKS TO
 WIDEN FACE
 She will find also that round cole lars and high, frilly jabots shorten her features, while long, pointed revers do just the opposite. She will be more flattered by brimmed hats or those with fullness low at sides than by halo shapes or turbans with high bows above the forehead.
 Furthermore, the long-faced type will avoid clusters of curls on top of the head. The top of her coiffure should be. flat with fullness at sides. DOLL FACES NEED
 NEAT EFFECTS
 If she has a round, full face, low, pointed necklines, long necklaces, clusters of curls atop the head and long earrings are her forte.
 The tiny, thin face would be over- whelmed by gigantic button earrings, whereas delicate little jeweled drops might be charming.
 The woman with tiny features may build her hair outward a little at the sides, but she must avoid bushy hair-dos.
 Great masses of hair always make a face look smaller than it actually 1c

ACETANILIDE ADDICTION

ACETANILIDE ADDICTION
 Chronic acetanilide poisoning Is a fairly frequent consequence of the indiscriminate use of various nos- trums containing acetanilide Cor phenacetine or antipyrine or amin opyrine, all of which coaltar deri- vatives are virtually the same in effect). The drug is the essential ingredients of a large number of headache powders or tablets, grip or "cold' tablets, migraine and neuralgia remedies, neuritis, rheu- matism, fatigue, exhaustion, sea sickness, and what have you-it is immaterial what ails you, the ef- feet of 8 dose of acetanilide is to lesson your consciousness of dis comfort or distress.

Mama Is just being influenced by feminine fashione when she kicks about the plaid suit Papa
 takes . shine to.
 Another thing Mama should not do is encourage Pop to match up his accessories, as she does. It gives an impression of straining for a sartorial effect.
 Additional clothes command ments for men are, according to MT. Bloc.-:
 The width of the trousers should be about three-fourths the length of the mans feet. Tho trousers should be long enough to break on the instep. The socks shouldn't show.
 "An inch of shirt cuff should show beneath the coat sleeve.
 Light gray felt hats, moire neckties, and shoes with sharp~ ly pointed toes should not be worn lever.
 Best all-around hats for men are dark brown snap brims and dark blue or black honburgs."
 Last, but not least, Mama should have Papa walk, sit and stretch in a new suit-not just admire him. self stiffly in full-length mir. ror-before he buys 1t. A man cannot possibly look well in a suit - unless he is comfortable wearing 1t.

 MAMA'S NOT
 WEARING IT
 MT. Block is by way of being an authority on mems clothes. His tailors run up the clothes of many of Manhatt ttan's best-dressed bus mess men, stage and literary lights and men about t-town. MT. Block thinks it is time women learned something about mems clothes, since they have SO much influence on masculine dress.
 TO begin with" he says, women should stop expecting mems clothes to fit the way their own do.
 "In order for the collar to stay put when a man moves his arms, there must be some drape in the back of the coat. The verticle wrinkles are there for purpose they are not @ misfit," MT. Block wants women to know. As for trousers, they shouldn't fit tight around the hips the way woman wants a dress to fit. Unless they are 8 bit baggy, and sink in lik, riding brooches, they will not hang right - nor will they be comfortable. Mama avoids plaids because they make her look larger. But tEat is no reason for Papa, who wants to look refty, to avoid them. WATCH THOSE
 ACCESSORIES Mama shouldn't let her feminine love for a nipped-in waist persuade her that Papa should have a nip red-in silhouette. He shouldn't. His coat should have straight look.
