Cactus hat is of velvet in cactus green.
HANDY FOR THE TRAVELERS! WARDROBE NEEDS MUCH CRE
Probably Most Convenient Pin Cush
ion That Has Yet Been Brought
Into Common Use.
A pin cushion that lcnd3 itself to
the needs of the traveled is a com
bination affair of cushion and jewel
box. The leather framo is green, red
or drak blue, is octagonal lit shape,
with a heavily padded cushion top
covered with velvet.
This top fits so tightly into the
lower part that none but the initiated
giiesseB at the double function of the
box. This mat-OS it a safo hiding
place for trinkets.
An ingenious girl has copied one of
the combination cushions by using a
fancy candy box, six inches in dia
meter and two inches high. Sho pad
ded tho top with wool, covered it with
pink chiffon velvet the tone of tho
flowers In tho gaily stamped border
and finished the edge with a narrow
silver braid.
Instead of using tho bottom for
Jewelry, sho turned It into a collar
box. The dimensions enable her to
carry more than a dozen collars
without crushing.
BLOUSE.
Almost any blouse material might
bo made up in this simple style; pin
tucks in sets of threes aro made
across tho front and in center back,
and one wldo tuck Is carried over tho
shoulder to waist front and back. Tho
collar Is hemstitched at the edge, and
the wrist-bands are finely tucked in
the center. Collar and small yoke of
spotted tmiBlln.
Materials required : 3 yards 27
inches wide, i yard mu3lln.
Begin With a New Hat.
"A new hat I must have," says tho
average woman each season, and a
new hat sho does have, even If sho
has to go without some of the neces
sities to get it. Now this may seem
foolish to bomo, but In reality It Is
very wise. With a becoming hat,
fresh and up-to-dato, even though it
Is accompanied by an old suit, provid
ed it Is neat and trim, a woman passes
as stylish and well dressed. Let her
appear, on the other hand, In a new
suit, with an old hat, dejected and
hopelessly out of fashion, ami she is
Immediately referred to as way be
hind tho times. And so It is that tho
woman who is wise In dress matters
begins each new beason with a new
hat. Woman'B Home Companion.
Good Parisian Idea.
Tho French are using flesh colored
tullo In combination with black gowns.
At a distance this has a startling ef
fect as of nn exaggerated decolletago,
but it 13 decidedly becoming, because
tho faintly flushed tullo Is much softer
against tho neck and arms than tho
white or cream tones.

Amply Repaid, However, on the Score-
of Economy, as Well as Having
Proper Appearance.
People aro not all naturally neat
and tidy, but often "aword to tho
wise is sufficient." Tt n dress Is taken
off and thrown to tho floor, perhaps In
a damp state, or even hung up undried,
when next wanted for wear It will bo
found crushed and draggled; whereas,
if care is taken to shape It well, placo
it on a hanger and hang It where tho
air has a chance to dry It, the garment
will appear fresh and neat whon
wanted again. Tho wardrobo of an
untidy, careless girl or woman will
cost her twice the nnfount of her moro
tidy neighbor, and sho will never look
so fresh and taiin
Hats often suffer most. A hat
comes bright and now from the milli
ner's, is worn day after day, tossed on
a bed or chair when taken off and left
for all dust and dirt to ndhero to it.
After a month's wear it Is hardly fit to
be seen. Tho girl who keeps her now
hat for cleir days, brushes it careful
ly, arranges tho bowa or lloweis, then
puts It awny in a box or covers it with
paper, finds It a pretty hat as long as
sho requires it. ''A stitch in time
saves nine" is a very true saying re
garding all clothes. A garment is sent
to tho laundry with a small hole, re;
turns with a far larger one, and at
last Is thrown asldo only fit for the
rag bag. If the same garment had
been mended In tlmo it would havo
lasted months.
Stockings should havo special no
tice. All thin places should bo neatly
darned before they becomo holes.
A veil rolled each tlmo it Is taken
off will keep neat jnuch longer than
when folded; gloves pulled out ami
smoothed will wear twico as long as
if they were crushed and tossed Into
a drawer.
Dresses should bo folded right Bldo
out and covered with paper or an old
sheet. Keep all drawers, chests and
wardrobes neat and clean and all arti
cles carefully sorted, not all, mixed up
in a state of confusion. Bo neat and
you will be amply repaid for tho little
trouble It causes you.
TOILET TABLE.
Tetter and ringworm aro caused by
imperfect indigestion and should bo
cured by proper diet. Local applica
tions of iodino will glvo temporary
relief.
An excellent tonic for tho hair is
made of one ounco of best castor or
sweet oil, two ounces of bay rum
and two of French brandy. Scent
with rose geranium.
People suffering from Indigestion
should eat a very light breakfast. A
raw egg separated and beaten light
with a little cream or milk ndded is
often sufficient and easily digested.
Tho best kind of exorcise 1b tho
kind that makes you forget that you
aro exercising in other words, play,
says a physician. It's a good schemo
to havo somo moro or less strenuous
game Tor a hobby, golf or bowling or
tennis or archery anything that ap
peals to you and affofds ' oxerciso
with interest. Hut this Is not saying
that systematic exercise is iftit u good
thing, too.
The Dolly Varden Gown.
Each of tho French couturiers has
brought out a Dolly Varden flowered
gown and, though differing in particu
lars, all these gowns aro alike in ono
respedt tho pannier. A Dolly Varden
costumo without a pannier would bo
liko Hamlet with Hamlet left out, or
something equally as disappointing;
and, Indeed, tho pannier, qulto as
much as the flowered material, makes
tho costumo worthy of its name. Pom
padour silks and flowered taffetas in
new and charming patterns havo' ap
peared liko magic in the shops to
make these Dolly Varden gowns, nnd
as a quantity of tho silk is required
for tho draped panniers, tho folk who
havo been crying out against the small
amount of material necessary nowa
days should cheer up.

THE VIRTUES OF MENU MAKING,
In tho arrangement of tho dinner
menu, we would without much thought
upon tho matter, consider tho arrange
luent of tho couiso more a matter of
custom than of good reabons founded
upon tho physiology of digestion.
The canape appeals to tho sense ot
snioll. which Ib of such Importance In
the dlgostlvo operation. Cavlnr, an
chovy or nny combination used for tho
canape appeals especially to tho eenso
of smell, which stimulates a flow o
saliva, tho tasto of oyster, clam, lob
ster, 1b also stimulating to tho flow
of saliva.
Tho next course in an ordinary din
ner is soup, nnd hero wo And n rea
son for its being. Tho broth, which
contains meat extractives, Is ono of
the most powerful stimulants to tho
flow of gastric Juices. Tho entree,
which follows the boup, is merely neg
atively valuable, saving tlmo which
allows tho gastric juices to ho se
ct eted In sufficient quantities to act
on tho heavier foods which follow.
Tho dessert, which follows. Is tibiii
ally of very different food stuff than
that which has. preceded It.
Tho old Idea that foods wero
churned and mixed In tho stomach
and then expelled Is quito correct.
Scientists tell us that only the food
which lies noxt to tho mucuous lining
of tho stomach Ib acted upon by tho
gastric juice, and that tho first food
taken Into tho stomach takes that poi
sitlon nnd remains there until oxi
pelled Into tho small Intestines. Each,
addition of food takes Its position, so
tlirtt tho last eaten lies In the center,
whero it is not reached nt all by the,
stomach juices If It Ib pastry, tho
time Is occupied by tho action upon It,
by tho saliva, which digests starch, so j
that It Is fully prepared to bo ox- j
polled when the time arrives, u mo
center food could bo reached at oncq j
by tho gastric Juices Its digestion,
would at once bo arrested, ns tho gas
tric juice, being acid, destroys tho nl
kallne of the Ballva. The whole proc
ess of dlcestlon is so wonderful and

HOUSEKEEPING HINTS.
A delicious way of preparing egg for
an invalid Is to beat the white until'
