Each woman asks the other whether it is wise to get a coat and skirt when the fashion is all for capes and frocks. The tailor awaits the whim of the public. No one knows which “Just How” to Make Popcorn Balls “How do you make popcorn balls— Just pop some comgand stir it up with 2 little molasses?” a reader of this col- umn has written to ask me.

Various Kinds of Baths. s Through an illness there are the baths for cleanliness to be given the patient daily. And frequently the doctor orders baths to reduce tem- perature, to cause perspiration, to stimulate the circulation or to soothe the nerves. Sometimes the bath is for purposes of counter-irritation, as the hot mustard foot bath. There are, too, the vapor baths, the electric baths and light baths used in thera- peutic treatments, but thess do not concern the home nurse, when her pa- tient is perbaps in a home where there is no electricity. - Eff cient.

The best houses in New York offer coat suits that savor of the direc- toire. whether the jackets are short or long. The redingote aad the hip- length jacket run side by at any smart gathering. Congpicuus reveres prevail. But the directoire vogue for slim, snug lines and frocks., while | sponsoring this type of tailored suit, | has produced another kind which con- sists of a coat that is copied from 3 cape. One might say that-the wide box coat was the insistent feature in French street suits. The sketch shows one made by Linker & Co., who are reckoned among the best of the French suitmakers. This coat is of navy blue cloth, with a high-waisted skirt to match, It has vague shoulder lines, wide loose sleeves, a hi wrinkled collar. The buttons are cot ered with white silk to matoh t pipings used on the edges. There are pockets in the pkirt and in the coat of this suit, viving that touch of masculinity which the French women to contrast with their entire ty of face and figure. t is an exaggerated form of the box coat and has much originality. It can be worn by the woman who has narrow or broad shoulders, and in its exaggeration it strengthens the fashion of the square coat for street usage. It was undoubtedly begotten through the influence of the cape, but in its swag- gering fullness it gives one the impres- sion of an English sport coat worn by women rather than a feminine coat ‘worn by Frenchwomen. 1t should be quite popular in America because of the width of our shoulders and the flatness of our hips. The minor touch of piping a garment with white and covering buttons with it should not be neglected by those who watch the straws of fashion. The covéred button is quite smart.

A beginning of the spring house- cleaning should be made by setting in order all the bureau drawers. They should be carefully gone over. completely emptied, brushed out, the cloth or pad in the bottom washed or renewed and all the odds and as ends that sccummlate during the winter properly disposed of, thrown away if useless, shipped to the attic if necessary. ‘Winter underwear should be mend- ed and made ready for storage, pro- tected from meths, and much that cannot be used again should b frankly discarded now, not allowed to litter the house and the house- kecper's mind until autumn, only to | be discarded then.
