«ron Across Length When ironing, press with the length rather than across the width of fabric wherever possible. But if i« skirt, slip or nightgown is cut on the bias, then iron on a slant, along the grain or straight of the materi al. This will prevent the stretching and sagging which makes hems un even. • Keeps Mouth Shut The reason a dog has so many friends is that his tail wags instead of his tongue MRS. ALLEN’S HUSBAND GIVES HER A SURPRISE WEST MONROE, LA.—Mrs. Carl C. Allen of West Monroe, Louisi ana, has an interesting story to tell about how she discovered Fault less Starch. Here is what she wrote: "Last week ,my husband brought home a box of Fault less Starch. I decided to use it, thinking that all starches were about the same. You can imagine my surprise when I began ironing. My iron fairly flew and I was finished in no time. Mv clothes were so bright, with no rough starch blotches to mar their sleek ness. I felt I just had to tell you how wonderful your starch is. My husband was just as proud as 1 when he saw his shirts. I wish all women could just try your product,” Now there is a thoughtful hus band. That box / of Faultless Starch really meant more to Mrs. Allen than a box of candy—and here is why: SAVE 468 MINUTES A YEAR Let's say it takes ten minutes to make hot starch when you have to cook it and stir it over a hot stove. But you can make hot Faultless Starch in a minute. That means you save nine minutes each time ,you make it. If you wash only once a week, in one year you would save 4C8 minutes, or seven hours and forty minutes. Would you rather have a box of candy or a box of starch that saved you bet ter than seven hours a year? SAVE 26 HOURS A YEAR And that isn't all! Many people tell us that Faultless Starch makes It possible to save half their lron tng time. Let's be conservative ind say that Faultless Starch anight save you half an hour each 5romng day. In a year you would save twenty-six hours of hard iron ing time! Which is best—a box of candy or a box of Faultless Starch? Why go on starching and ironing the hard way when you can do it the easy way with Faultless Starch. Or, better still, ask your grocer for a box today. You deserve Faultless Starch, too.—Adv. - - ... ■iMi ill ... And Your Strength and Energy la Below Far It may ba caused by disorder of kid ney function that perinita polaonoua U waste to accumulate.

Softly Draped Handbags Tuned to Stunning Fall, Winter Costumes By CHERIE NICHOLAS DESIGNERS are on the qui vive this season to create handsome handbags that shall measure up to the fashion glory and the new ele gance of the stunning costumes which go to make up the fall and winter style picture. In assembling your fall-winter wardrobe, keep in mind that this year your costume will be only as smart as the handbag you carry with it. That's how important hand bags really are. You will have no trouble in finding as handsome hand bags and as versatile as ever fancy might picture. Be sure to make your selection with meticulous care, for this year’s handbags make a de cided departure from the stereo typed styles of yort. The three voguish Jenny handbags shown in the illustration are typical of the new movement toward the feminine look, achieved through soft draping. These bags are styled as American women prefer them, with elegance and stark clean lines, and in fabrics that mean fashion and wearability. With your perfect dawn-to-dusk trotteur, the bag to the left will be ideal. It is spiced with the new soft look via uniquely quilted and gath ered supple goatskin. You’ll take real pleasure in this bag because it is so roomily built to take care of your feminine possessions, and it sure is a winner in "looks.’’ Simple enough for tailored cas uals, feminine enough for all your frills is the handbag centered above. It tells you that the under arm bag has lost its strictly tailored look, has been lifted out of it this season with soft pleats and deft draping, as you see. The supple goatskin that fashions this bag is most attractive not only to the eye but to the touch. The mock tor toise that makes such a good-look ing trim is outstanding in the news when it comes to adding the touch that tells to this season’s smartest handbags. Sleek, smooth, quality-kind broad cloth, the fabric that fraternizes with most every costume makes the good-looking bag to the right. In this instance, the designer takes the ever-popular underarm handle bag and artfully drapes a pleated flange through a graceful span of mock tor toise. Speaking in general of what’s what in new handbag fashions, the most exciting innovation in many a season is the advent of little bulb ous pouch bags done in eye-catch ing silhouettes. These pouch bags certainly have cunning ways and they are staging a display of breath taking novelty. Made of practical broadcloth, faille and various wear able media, they carry on in a modest way by day. When it comes to the dressy cocktail party and gala after-five occasion, however, the lit tle pouch bag puts on a spectacu lar display that fairly bubbles over with all the glitter and intriguing fussiness imagination can devise. Just now it’s the whimsical pouch bag of black satin that holds forth in the fashion spotlight. Women are buying these bags to go with the satin hat and with the all-satin gown that is so style-important this fall. These black satin bags are perfect with afternoon and evening clothes. The party bags fairly scintillate with the glitter of sequins or tiny steel or jet beads. Most of the box bags have straps to sling over the arm. The newsiest news of all is the little shoulder strap bags that become a decorative part of the frock when dancing. Released by Western Newspaper Union. Blouse Favorites Sheer lingerie blouses of loveliest texture, and exquisitely detailed with lace register as topflight fash ion with the young set this fall to wear with the dress-up suit. Shown at the top is a charming “come hith er” blouse In batiste by Judy Bond, a young college girl and stylist who is combining a career and school j ing with high success. The other 1 blouse in judiana rayon crepe is the wanted kind for college wear. Its highspot style details are the tripie stitched convertible V-neck, closely set pearl buttons and french cuffs. Comes in white and voguish colors. Furred Cloth Coats Make Fashion News The short cloth coat with in triguing fur trim is taking over in a tremendous way for fall. The top news is luxurious wool coats with gorgeous borders that either trim the flare hemline or are applied in a tuxedo manner down the front. Im portant is the style message of fur sleeves in cloth coats, such as the belted wool shorties in neutral shades that are fashioned with waist deep sleeves of black Persian. In teresting also is the cloth coat with a fur yoke. Contrasting the voluptu ous fur trims is the use of fur in discreet ways, as for instance, the cloth coat that is bound all around the edges with Persian or beaver or other smooth peltry. There is also indication that one type fur will trim another. Designers are doing won derful things with fur, not only in trimming but in accessories, arid fur hats are being turned out in end less versions. Color Contrast Extended To New Evening Dresses The idea of color contrast is associated in our minds for the most ' part in connection with sports clothes and daytime dresses. It's in teresting to note that this color technique is carrying on in the realm of formal evening gowns. In one instance a noted designer intro duces a panel that extends from the right shoulder to the floor hemline of the dress. The panel is made up of lime and red, flashed against a black background. Sequin Ornaments on Combs Sequin flower motifs on combs are among the hair ornaments that are best sellers. Some are designed especially for top hairdress and oth ers for top-knot hair-do.
