no more pleasing in effect than the
dainty sash ties on each sidel The
price is one to bewitch, but $14.50!

organdies in high shades, persimmon,
cinnamon, tomato, Neptune green,
Royal Blue, many of them with cor

Dress Becomingly in the Kitchen
When I had been married a year or so all my impracticable working
clothes, the pretty little frilly aprons and dresses of my trousseau, were
worn out, stained or faded, and I found myself quite in the same box with
the famous Miss Flora .McFlimsy as far as kitchen things went I had
"nothing to wear." ' '
So profiting by experience I-made out a list of things I knew I needed,
went into town and bought the cloth and engaged a little seamstress who
went out by the day to do plain sewing to come to the house for a week
and fit me out. . ,. , . ,
The things were so satisfactory that I -want to pass on the ideas to the
spring brides who are making their trousseaux and haven't had the experi
ences I have had. One of the problems of the young housewife, who
usually does her own work for the first few years, at least these days, is
dressing in the morning so she is perfectly presentable when she goes to
the door. And the problem is as great in the afternoon, still be able to
get dinner without spoiling one's pretty afternoon dress. Really one
shouldn't cook in a taffeta or serge even covered with an aprop; it gets
saturated with that kitchen smell that every housewife wants to leave be
hind her in the kitchen. k
The famous bungalow aprons are all right for some things, but they
are not awfully pretty, and one doesn't feel (ike running out to the store
with them on. My morning dresses are as easily washed and ironed as
these aprons, just as easy to get into, but are much prettier. I found a very
pretty pattern of a straight dress with kimono sleeves, but it had a narrow
white front in it that extended to the belt .in front, with long narrow revers
and cuffs. I got enough pink and white checked gingham, plain Nile green
chambray and dark blue percale for three, .The fronts and the collars
were made up separate a 115! snapped into the dresses with snaps. I used
a fine ribbed pique for them and had two extra ones made so they could
be washed whenever necessary.' The cuffs 1 baste in. They go on over
the head like an apron, but when the collar and front are snapped in and
the belf on they really look like little afternoon dresses. Then I had
aprons made of the same materials to match. Such a pretty pattern I
found for them, too, a nice big bib, with a full skirt and sash. I had them
made with two big pockets and long enough so they covered the hem of
the skirts. So often aprons are not long enough. I trimmed them with
white rickrack braid. Then I made pretty little sweeping caps to match.
I know now that lacy boudoir'caps are not the thing to wear around the
kitchen. Now when I go to the door I can take off the cap and apron and
look as well as I used to when I started for the courts for a game of morn
ing tennis. And somehow, work seems so much pleasanter when you
know you look well dressed.
For my afternoon dresses I used wash goods, too. You can get such,
pretty mercerized things nowadays that they look quite like silk. I had
them made with straight skirts and slipon waists that come on the out
side. They look dressier than smocks and are just as easy to get into
Hanging on a hook by the sink I have an apron made of white oilcloth
bound with pink tape, and there is another in the laundry, so when I have
to wash out some things down there, I can tie it over my dress and not
get it wet. I have made such pretty aprons for the garden, too; black
cretonne with bright flowers scattered over it, bound with plain colored
tapes. And I have a long, narrow apron made of black oilcloth for the
garden, too; long enough so I can kneel on it and won't get my knees
grubby and stained. '
There is really no excuse these days for a woman to wear her old
street clothes around the house; they never look right, and they ate never
comfortable. But if yoil are becomingly and neatly dressed you will find
that you feel better and work better. Many a task that was, a bugbear
etoma a real joy. Try it and sec
They pass the garden's weedy aisles,
Where roses long have died,
And see the bitter herb-of -grace

And have contentment, too.
