(PrEVENTOL) CLEAN MGME THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. (. MONDAY, MAY HATS OF FELT AND FABRIC. BY ANNE RITTENHOUSE.

Tt is their on to keep women from wear- what they own. Once upon a | mis ing time when hats were cheap the world of women was with the milliner. It made a pleasant afternoon to pur- chase hats, say three for $15, and th by feel that one's old frock was brightly enhanced for the next three months, When a milliner, without shame, asks $30 for sport hat and $50 for an aftermon hat in @oing S0 reminds the patre pix other milliners ask 370 «nd then the agreeable indoor sport of buying hats turns to bitte The average age purse for: N milliner and buys her counters of department times she goes further. her flowers at the ten-cent paints her ald straw hats. Rot a theory. warfare amun t hats This This has been done, and the result justified the means. is In_keeping with their usual con- trariness, which has busine and charm behind it, the milliners ad- vanee the felt hat in brizht colors and in that graceful shape which the Fronch call cloche. It feels lisht in the hand, it wears better than straw, it stands the stress of wind and ther, buf, oh. the heat of it. Possibly a permanent wave might withstand it, but no other curl will.

They must expect me to die. They never- talk out loud. I want to cry. 1 want to laugh. I want to scream.” And as the hysteria, against which she was .really struggling, grew, the girl did actually scream, burst into a [ storm of tear-shattered laughter, and threshed about the bed in a very tempest of tears. Her mother, alarmed, rushed into the room, and kneeling by the bed. | implored the girl, with tears stream- ing down her own face, to try to be | calm. The girl's father, hurrying in from the dinner table, crumpling the evening paper as he came, strode up and down the room, saying. “A nice state of affairs. Poor child! Poor vhy don’t you do something, mother ™ And “mother,” telephoning for the doctor and attempting dismally to re- store order, tearfully admitted that she was through. That she just { couldn’t manage alone another min- !ute. That the sick girl was “too much,” for her, and that she would | give in at last! Some one would Just have to come in and take care of ‘Anna. “I don't want a nurse! T won’t have a nurse! I want mother! I want mother! Oh. I know I'm going out of my mind! Where is mother?’ And the girl who had come home from school in a faraway town with a nervous breakdown, according to the 00l doctor’s dlagnosis, wept more tempestuously than ever. { There were no available nurses. But a middle-aged womean. who wore com- | Ton-sense shoes. and had done a | great deal of “caring for the sick” in the neighborhood, was prevailed upon to come in for the night. And she remained a wesk. The miracle she wrought was matvelous. But her first evening in the house was most distressing. Doctor’s Advice Unheeded. The girl was hysterical. The mother and father hung ower the bed and refused to leave the room. The fam- ily doctor, who was a kindly soul. paced up and down in the hall, paus- ing at the sickroom door every now 2nd again to say: “Come, now. Come, now._ Betfer leave Anna to the nurse. She knows how to take care of her. But no one came. ever, the nurse was doing some rec- onnoitering. The sick girl had had her bed made up in “the parior” to save her mother steps. That in it- self was a bad thing, because the girl Wwas never away from the attentions of her family for a moment The door-bell, the telephone, passing neighbors, who stood at the gate to call to her mother, ell these little annoyances had tended to increase her tendency to hysteria. So, in the big spare bedroom that was all done up in yellow and white, with its atarched pillow-shamsa and coin-spotted muslin curtains, all neatly ruffed and primly hung, the nurse stood and made up her mind. It was an ideal room for a nervous patient. Big and airy, opening Into a bathroom on one side and a sleep- ing porch on the other. The wall- paper was delightfully piain.

Crepe de Chine. Naturally crepe de chine often serves for overblouses. The mills must have been running overtime to supply the world with this fabric. There is no single garment a Woman wears that cannot be made of one of the weaves of crepe. There are many, as you know—all alike, except for certain roughness of the surface and thickness of the weave. All are borrowed from the Chinese, except the kind that comes from Morocco. Tihere are new blouses of thin crepe de chine which are chosen in neutral colors in order that they may be embroidered gayly and brightly. These have square sleeves, a collar- less round neck and loops of crepe de chine that fall over the hips to the hem of the skirt In a cascade effect.

The average woman thinks of mus- lin, white and washable, when she thinks of a shirt waist. Tradition has taught her the connecting link. She will have to revise her thoughts this season. Shirt waists do not mean muslin. They mean it very seldom. The word stands for blouses in every kind of fabric, except cloth. It includes woolen jersey and woolen mufflers. These neckscarfs in silk. in wool jersey, and even in brushed wool are used for the front panels of blouses. They are commonly used for the crowns of hats, for the bor- ders of jersey sweaters and for high collars on coat suits. Bacon as Garnish. Bacon is a very picturesque as wall as a delicious garnish.

This is to offer a pleasant test. To bring you the results for awhile. Then to let you decide if you want them every day. Film mars your looks Film is that viscous coat you feel, ever-present, ever-forming. It clings to teeth, gets between the teeth and stays. ‘This film absorbs stains, so it clouds the teeth’s beauty. It often forms the basis of thin, dingy coats. And coated teeth don’t glisten. So beauty alone demands its daily removal. Those who leave it do not realize how attractive teeth can be. The great tooth wrecker But film does more. Itis the basis of tartar. It holds food substance which ferments and forms acid. It holds the acid in contact with the teeth to canse decay. Germs breed by millions in it. And they, with tartar, are the chief cause of pyorrhea, Pepsad REG.V.
