No one who did not have to buy window screens last summer did so, because screens were among the houschold comforts that were high- est in price. They are still pretty expensive, and many householders are holding off trying to get along without having their houses screened wntil there is a still greater fall in prices of this sort. The worst way to manage this is to plan to have your windows open but Tittle. - However, it is quite pos- sible to put up black or dark green mosquito netting so that you can manage for one summer at- least without the screens. To be sure this keeps out rather more air then does fine screening, but it is not a bad substitute. There are folding screens that prove quite a godsend. It is possible to get a few of these, using them in the sleeping room windows at night and ‘in the living room win- dows in the daytime. Of course care should be taken . in removing and putting in these scréens. The out- side window should be closed tight before - the screen is removed and not opened until it 1s securely in place. Be very sure that the screen fits the window It is quite pol free enough from your verandas, so that you may sit there without being annoyed by them. If there are mosquitoes jn the mneighborho however, no veranda will be com- fortable in the evening. Some per- sons have half of their veranda screened in 80 that there will be place to sit in the open on summer evenings yet, so that in daytim there would be an uninclosed sec- tion which would be comfortable in the daytime. " For Evening Wear. A strikingly handsome evening dress is made of sapphire blue taffeta, bro- caded in gold geranium leaves, the full skirt gathered on a pointed bodice. The neck is low and round and the sieeves very, short and tightly fitted. Matching hose and slippers are worn with this costume, and for a head dress a bandeau of emerald beads holds a flat emerald cabochon at the center of the forehead. An evening dress of flamingo velvet is made with a narrow train extending from the low back. Strings of gradu- ated pearls form the sleeves, fitting the arms at the shoulders and hanging wide at the wrista. S A handsome gown of brown taffe has a fiited bodice and slashed tunic. trimmed with raffia braid and bead em- broidery, while another gown of black taffeta is made with white floss and rafia in Greck design used as a trim ming. —_— | Beauty Glimpses e dm-:n:? $ favorite actress soiss : DEL-A-TONE well-known scientific' prepar- ation for removing hair from eck, faceor- 8. - Davis and Mrs. Lawson.
