Springtime Perfumes
Varied Fragrances Make Delightful Easter Offerings;
Many Are Distinctively and Appealingly Packaged

To get back to perfumes, however,
here are some Of the newest and
most spring-ike versions for Easter
giving. A Russian from the Imperial
Court, now turned perfumer, has
created some fragrances which are
particularly light and sensitive"
These are designed for the woman
who likes very feminine clothes and
not-too-heavy perfumes, and are
presented this season in a sky blue
Easter bonnet box decked with
rambler roses and an appealing bow.
The packaging is most attractive and
appropriate; the perfumes distinc-
tive and refreshing.
Equally delightful is the perfume
creation Of a well known fashion
designer who believes in the value
Of laughter when the going is tough
est and who has titled her perfume
with that thought. It has been a
favorite with chic women, and there
now Is an eau de toilette in the same
flavor" The latter, just in time
for spring, has the same aroma as
the perfume, but is more subdued
and subtle. This, incidentally, Is
one Of the smartest tricks of groom
ing-to keep your perfume, eau de
toilette and other beauty aids all in
the same fragrance In many cases
there are lipsticks, face powder, bath
powder and other necessities in one
distinctive aroma.
II you really want to carry this
co-ordinated grooming idea along,
It's now possible to wear a straw hat
for summer and have perfume to
match it! One of our enterprising
perfumers has bit of liquid sun
shine that is "a natural" for sum-
mer wear, light, feminine and
slightly coquettish. In fact, so out
standing is the perfume that
famous millinery firm has created
a special hat named in honor of it,
hence the tie-up between hat and
perfume. However, you don't have
to have a certain hat to enjoy this
lifting fragrance. Packaged in nat
ural straw and red linen, it will
make an attractive Easter gift, par
ticularly for the younger set.
No need to tell you, in this
roundup of springlike perfumes,
how popular the flower fragrances
are. Almost every good perfumer
has an array of them-some so
lifelike that you expect to find
crushed posies in the bottle; others
SO remote that were it not for the
name on the label you'd never guess
which flower bed they came out of.
Really true to their inspiration,
however, are the floral perfumes
which have become established
Easter offerings from one we'll
known house. There's a rain
washed lilac, heady gardenia,
Winsome violet, luxurious camellia,
perky petunia and dainty honey
suckle, marguerite and mignonette!
And you can count on these per-
fumes really carrying out the true
fragrance Of the posies they repre-
sent. One of our favorites is the
violet scent which Is not as win
some as the manufacturer would
have you believe. AS a matter Of
fact, it's downright headyl

Why Grow Old?
Bv Josebhine Lowman

In England women are feeling
the pinch OF cosmetic scarcity.
Although the British government
has recognized the importance of
makeup as morale builder, ration
ing has appeared on the horizon
and Englishwomen are now faced
with something like one npstick a
year.
On our own continent we still
have an abundance of lovely beauty
aids of every sort. It is true that
some former items are unobtainable
and that the cosmetic world has
been clever with substitutes, but we
are moving along in beauty and
sweet-smelling luxury so far as
makeup is concerned. Let us not
take this for granted.
We can conserve our supply and
stop wasteful habits. Have you
ever noticed how much powder we
waste through spilling when the top
is taken off too suddenly? Tap the
powder down first. Then, too, we
all leave plenty Of 1ipstick in the
container when we discard 1t. The
prescribed way to apply lipstick is
with a brush anyway and the re-
mainder Of your stick can be used
In this way.
Most women use far more cold
cream at each application than is
essential. They seem to feel that
the more they put on the better
it will be for the skin. Actually the
skin can use only a small amount.
Employ just enough to lubricate it
well.
Remember this beauty hint also.
Ice makes one of the best astrin-
gents you can possibly use. Always
wrap it In a soft cloth first. Do not
apply it directly to the skin.

Africans Prize
Tin Cans

The millions OF steel cans brought
into Africa by American forces on
that front are proving bonanza
to natives, who use them as cooking
and drinking utensils and for a
variety of other purposes, the Can
Manufacturers Institute reports.
In many native homes the lid Of
the empty can is cut and shaped
into a fairly comfortable handle
and the edge pounded into smooth
rim. In many cases the labels are
left on the can to help each men,
Der of the family identify his exclu-
sive drinking cup.
Larger cans are fashioned, often
with considerable ingenuity, into
pans, kettles or ornamental objects.
Tops and bottoms are turned into
the wheels OF toy wagons. Jagged
edges make cutting tools when tied
to wooden handles or shaped into
forks or hand rakes. What we
throw away is a prize to these
natives.

'Soapless Soap for Laundering
Is Now in Use on War Fronts

gents are used for washing woolens
there is less shrinking due to the
shorter laundering period.
In view of the highly satisfactory
results obtained from the use of
this type of soap for laundering
purposes, work was begun on a
toilet soap of the same general ma
ture so that soldiers overseas could
use it regardless of the type of water
in which they bathe. The chemists
of the Army Quartermaster Corps,
in cooperation with industry, have
recently developed toilet soap
which will do the job whether the
water is rain water, ocean water,
hard or soft, and the soap action is
always effective
Like many other inventions and
discoveries these new "all-water"
soaps will not be available in guam
tity for civilian use for the dura-
ton of the war. Conditions under
which the Army and the Navy must
launder their clothes are so far
different from domestic laundering
circumstances that the armed serv-
ices must have first call on this i'm

EmilyPost Says

Dear Mrs. Post: What kind of
invitations can we send to our we'd
ding reception instead OF the for
NAL third-person one? The circum-
stances are these: 1t is the second
marriage for each of us; we are
having quiet ceremony witnessed
by few friends and relatives. In
the evening we are giving a big
open house in our house and invit-
ing all the friends and relatives to
that. Refreshments will be of the
cold-buffet variety and I don't imag-
inc we'll even be able to have
wedding cake.
Answer-The simplest way, 1t
seems to me, would be to ask peo-
pie, as you see them, to the cere-
mony or to the reception or to both,
and write notes to those whom you
are not likely to see. AS you say
yourself, it is all to be as simple as
possible and that means the best
way to invite people is whatever
way is the simplest for you. One
perhaps important point-carry a
note book and write down those
you've asked. You will surely for
get a few If you don't.

Small Quantity Buying Due
10 Rationing Ups Expenses

this is the ruling as this-is being
written. The small family will have
to depend upon such meats which
can be bought in small quantities.
Chopped meat. chops, liver, kidney,
brains and sweetbreads, sausages
and frankfurters are among the
available choices Once in a while,
extra supplies of beef which are
promised actually come into circu-
lation. Steak may come on the table
again. Perhaps it will have to be
of the minute" variety. When
points accumulate, cheese will, of
course, be bought by the pound
rather than in small units.
Blue stamps are generally best
expended for cans of large rather
than of small size. This means
that the contents will provide more
than one meal. Most of us do not
object to eating the same vegetable
and fruit two days in succession.
At the present time, we are just
glad to be able to put them on the
menus.
When frozen vegetables are
chosen, let me remind you that
the contents of the carton should
all be cooked at one time, unless
the package is cut in half before
it is thawed and one part put into
the freezing compartment of the
refrigerator and in the tray where
the temperature is lowest. Frozen
vegetables should never be allowed
to thaw and refreeze. It is hardly
worth while to suggest how blue
stamps can best be spent, as this
depends so much upon the various
needs of the family.
CREAMED TRIPE.
Cook tripe in salted water to
cover several hours until tender.
Drain. cut in small pieces and re-
heat in medium cream sauce. Sea-
son to taste with minced onion and
curry powder The tripe may be
cut in larger pieces, dipped in milk
and seasoned crumbs, sprinkled
with salad oil or drippings and
placed under the broiler until golden
brown.
BROILED SWEETBREADs.
About / pair sweetbread for each
two persons.
tablespoon vinegar. u
l teaspoon salt.
Wash sweetbreads thoroughly In

membranes and tubes. Dry and
brush with melted fat and sprinkle
with salt and pepper Broil inches
from high heat until golden brown,
about 10 minutes, turning occa-
sionally. Serve with tartar sauce.
SAUTEED BRAINS.
Prepare brains according to recipe
for sweetbreads. Calves, pigs, or
lambs, brains may be used. After
draining, they may be either broiled
or sauteed in small amount of fat.

A new type Of "soapless" soap,
which makes water ''wetter," IS now
used for laundering clothes by
American soldiers and sailors on
fighting fronts all over the world.
Washday in the Army and the
Navy Is vastly different from the
customary domestic Monday wash
day. Time and place are factors
inyolved-factors which are varia-
BILE and uncertain.
Clothing has to be 1aundered at
odd places and at odd moments.
Naval laundries at sea depend
wholly on salt water for washing
clothes. Army mobile laundry units
servicing men at the fighting fronts
must depend on whatever type of
water is available-and that may
turn out to be river water, rain
water, salt water, water that is hard,
soft, alkaline or acid.
AS Is commonly known, most soaps
do not "suds up" in salt or hard
water. Combining with dissolved
minerals in this water they form
greasy curds which leave rings
around bathtubs or CRIME in laun-
dered clothes.
Faced with the problem not only
Of keeping clothes clean but also of
minimizing effects of disease-carry-
ing germs, the specifications branch
Of the War Production Board Con-
servation Division and the chemical
industry, working with the Army
and the Navy, developed a new
cleaning agent which looks like soap
and has been described as "soapless
SOAP" This new product is equally
effective in all types of water.
For hundreds Of years ordinary
soaps of the household variety have
been made by treating fats and oils
with an alkan. After Pearl Harbor
the normal supply of vegetable oils
available for use in the production
of hard-water soaps was cut off. The
problem, therefore, was not alone to
find a more versatile soap, but to
compensate for the reduced supply
of raw materials.
The new type Of "soapless soap" is
made with base Of petroleum or
coal tar. Known in technical terms
as a synthetic detergent" this
"soapless soap combines with what
ever water Is available to form q
penetrating solution which rapidly
and thoroughly reaches all f1bers
In the garments which are being
laundered. This "wetting" action
Gas it Is called in Industry results
in the removal Of all greasy par
ticles in clothing without the
formation of any insoluble curds.
The longer woolen material re-
mains in water the more it will
shrink. The new soapless soap acts
more quickly than other soaps and
consequently when synthetic deter

Small Child Has Startling Ability
To Avoid Actual Truth and Fact

His father had told him all about
Hawaii, he stated, and it would be
better for him to paint because he
would then learn more.
He was allowed to paint and was
much surprised that no one in
sisted upon his presence at the sand
table or even seemed to care that
he was absent from the group.
The Hawaiian model completed,
each child was given a lei of paper
flowers and, joining hands, they
swayed to the dulcet strains of a
simple island melody.
Captivated by this part Of the
fun, Peter ran to join the group,
but then his teacher told him to
return to his painting. Refused his
wish, he roared his rage alone In
the next room.
At home Peter was asked to help
his older sister carry out the
luncheon dishes. He did not want
to work so he said appealingly, "It

1t is more generally economical and
