Sleeping Rooms of Outdoor Temperature
No person need be afraid to sleep in a
room aa cold as tutdoors 1f sufficient pro
vision has been made to keep the body
warnv. It cannot be stated too emphat
ically, however, that cold Is exhausting to
the vitality, and so the pores must be pro

enthusiasts lies In the fact that they rarely

la not in robust health Is likely to feel
the cold Intensely, and for such fjannel
next to the spine Is imperative. Either the
sleeping garment may be mad from it, or
there may be a sleeping bag of flannel.
Baga arc made especially for sleeping and
are fashioned from the warmest and softest
wool. They are expensive, so unless a per
son Is literally sleeping out of doors suf-
ficient warmth will be obtained by using
bag made from a good quality of flannel,
preferably blanketing.

There wasn't any reason for it, a cer

specialist.
He listened to her recital of trouble and
shook his head gravely and then began to
as): questions. "Do you wear high boots
when you walk 'in the street?" Sh said
she did not. "Do you wear ailk stock
ings, or warmer ones?" She said silk.
"Do ou wear few underclothes, to ap
pear sylphlike, or do you ue flannel?"
No flannel was her answer and she volun
teered thst most of her gowns had half
sleeves. Then the nere specialist delivered
himself of an opinion like this: ,
"You are like most women nowadays:
your are not warmly enough dressed In
cold weather. Cold saps vitality, which Is
strength. You are not sufficiently pro
tected from cold, so your phical strength
goes below par. and then u proceed to
live the atrenuoua life demanded of women,
and go on your nerves.
"It ia uaeless to tell me you are warm
enough when you are out of doors. If
I you are warm enough when wearing
pumps In the street In winter It Is because
you ar making an undue demand upon
' ourself to b so. and ou are bound to
pav later by lack of strength. It la as
1 logical as that two and two make four

It Is rot unoommon for -the "fresh" air"
followers to need something warm over
their heads, and for such covering a close,

There should be no hesitation in wear

your body thoroughly warm at all times,
unless you wish to grow old ..before your
time. For premature age will be the price
that women will pay soon for the fashion
now of wearing insufficient clothing ln
cold weather.
"Don't for one moment fancy I think you
should swath yourself in flannels, or that
I would have you wear hosiery made of
yarn. You should select auch garments as
will prevent your own natural warmth
from being dissipated during tha first five
minutes you arc exposed to a cold wind.
"Wear pump Indoor by all means, but
it Is not logical that they shall be equally
comfortable for you when aa icy tem

to walk.
"To almost every woman nowadays it
would be safe to say: 'You do not con
serve your natural strength. Keep warm,
and your nerves will be less strained.
You won't be so fussy, and wrinkles will
not so soon appear. But If you don't wear
such clothing as will protect you. then
you will be profitable patients for nerve

f Novel Row in Clubdom
J
The Beethoven club, composed of the
leading society women of Canton, O., has
been thrown Into wild dlsaord by the an
nouncement that fourteen of It popular
members, maids and matrons, have been
made defendants In a damage suit for
$100,000 brought by Mr. and Mrs. ti A.
Sawyer.
Mrs. Sawyer, one of the plaintiffs, ha
been the critic of the Beethoven club, and
her daughter U the secretary. A paper
read by Mrs. Sawyer at a recent meeting,
criticising the program of th year, was
the beginning of the trouble. Among other
things, she said:
"We began the year's work with Bee uo
ven and ended with 'The Chatter..ig
Squaw.' I consider that there waa an un
equal division of the work. One member,
who has a fine, natural voice, under good
control, waa Ignored as a vocalist, but
seemed to have many 'papers' on current
events, and on number fur th piano.
Waa It to spar the member s voice?
"I chanced hear Beethoven fifth sym
phony, 'Allegro," on the program. It was
a solo, but given as a duet. The motif
was suggested to Beethoven by the clear,
sweet notes of th yellow hammer. While
listening It suggested to me the carpenter's
little yellow hammer nailing the notes
down hard."
A few days later the women who have
been made defendants In the damage suit
signed a paper calling upon Mr. Sawyer
to resign from th club, declaring- that her
report as a critic had been a personal in
sult to every member. The paper was de
livered by special messenger, and Mr.
Sawyer saya that when hla wife opened
the envelope and read the content sh was
"horribly shocked."

Veils edged with marlbou are no longer

Of course only the narrowest fur edging

a combination of Russian net with a hair

These veils are. of course, expensive, but
If a woman possesses a narrow fur edging
the net sold by the yard will not be costly,
and by combining the two a new style
veil ran be made for comparatively small
cost.

fBirds on Miniature Trees Novel Decoration J
An engagement luncheon to be given next
week for a fashionable girl offers sugges
tions In table decoration which may be fol
lowed to advantage by others. The general
scheme of ornamentation is that of a con
servatory and aviary combined.
The blrda used ln the decorations are
about three Inches long, so built that they
I balance when the tiny hock, which la an
' excellent substitute for claws. Is placed on
j a slender twig or wire. The birds look
like paroquets. They are probably made of
papier mache, and come In different colore,
buti for the young girl' luncheon those of
white, shading to a pink tone In th neck
and had, wer chosen. The small toy
shop sell them and they cost, aa a rule 10
cent each.
In the center of the tab!e"for the en
gagement luncheon are to be sprays of
orange blossoms, growing aparently from
a mossy bank. The birds are perched
among the flowers, on the natural stems.
Such an Idea could be modified, using
only a natural bare branch, for th birds
mak quite enough ornamentation. Tiny
little swings, such as are used In cages,
are plaoed, on at either corner of the
centerpiece, and a bird Is perched In each.
