MATERIAL FOR RACE COATS Waterproof Satin One of the Novelties of the Morment; Dominating Cape Mantle. - A novelty of the moment fs black waterproofed satin, which- 1s preparéd especlally for race coats. To accom- pauy such a coat there might be™a draped toque or tam-o™-shanter of the satin, and then the wearer could take her pleasure regardless of the warn- ings of the weather glass. As the season advances oné real- 1zes, more and more clearly how great is the attraction of the cape maitle; how firm a hold it has taken upon our affections. There are several things to be sald in favor of the garment, which takes so many different forms while always remaining pictnreiqi:e. but ity most potent ‘¢charm 11és “half hidden in the fact that it 1s suitable fol" éveryone. It can be and is worn by women of all ages and sizes; it I8 not—as are so many of ‘the présent- day fashions—obviously intenided for youthful, slender figures. Simple chemise robes, made of jJer- sey cloth, are still fashionablé. Fine hand enibrotderies are almost alweys introduced on the front of the corsage ahd, more oftén than mnot, on the sash ends and short sleeves. Rat’s-tail braiding i3 the rage of the moment. This work is easily achiev- ed, and on navy-blue serge it gives superb results, with touches of black silk embroidery in the interstices. Eyes of approval are once more turning on the demure chemisette of ofgandié muslin or tulle. Somo of these “modesties” are fascinating be- youd words; so dainty and yet—"so French!” PEARLS STRUNG WITH CORAL Clever Combination Matde Possible by Bringing Out the Stowéd-Away Netkinces. A resourceful young woman who wanted a very smart, rather long string of beads to wear with a spe- ¢lil frock, 1ooked over heér assortment of neckiaces before faring forth to Day any meuey on an expensive neck ornanient. Put away in one of her traasire boxes she found two old neck- laces of previous years. One was a short but very good string of small péarl béads, laid aside bécause a short string of beads just encircling the thl:ont,was nelther very smart nor very becoming with present-style cos- tume. The other necklace was a short string of real coral beads, a left- She dis- covered that the small pearl beads and the coral beads were exqetly the same size and she hit upon the Idea of stringing them, together, a pear! bead alternatifig with a coral bead.

This has been found in tests just completed at the experiment farm of the United States department of agriculture at Beltsville, Md. - Twenty-four lousy hogs were secured and divided into two lots as nearly equal as to quality of animals as possible. The two lots were managed and fed the same way with the exception that one lot was treat- ed to prevent lice. The animals were weighed at regular inter- vals and at the end of the fat- tening period it was found that the hogs infested with lice cost a cent a pound more to fatten than those which were free of the troublesome pest. The officlals of the depart- ment who had charge of this ex-. periment give an Intercsting side light in connection with securing the lousy animals. They communicated with some of the department's field men, asking them to locate lousy hogs. It was some time before a reply was received to this surprising order. After the lousy hogs were purchased the owner learned why, and he fwn- mediately buflt a dipping vat and began to treat the animals to prevent lice.

The demand for fabrics that can be easily couverted into walstcoats con- ilnues, One fabric that meets the de- mard 18 the wide black silk trimming band, embroidered with gold and sil- ver threads. This trimming comes in two widths, one wide enough to make the walst. coat without piecing, the other only wide enough for half the waistcoat. This narrower silk must be pleced down the front, but this plécing is efféected with smartness, under a pleat. Some of the new silk sweaters have wide turn-back collars of contrasting color, that extend to form revers down the sides of the front. They are held back by the wide belt. The belt and revers collar on a cerise sweater are of gray, aiid on a purple sweater they are of soft old gold. IR TIITEEY Y KRR KEA KK R ® XXX Mrs. W.
