Not only did the Madeleines make use of Chinese embroideries, but they showed their mannequins, with hailr done sleek and smooth fn Chinese fashion and with Chinese pins thrust through it. Moreoven, in thelr version of the bolero, much talked about as a re- vival in many of the collections, they inclined to the lines of the Chinese coat. There is nothing symbolic or sig- nificant in this Chinese spurt by the Madeleines, nor in any other sugges- tion of Chinese lines or_ decorations clsewhere. It is simply done by way of necessary variety. In a season pledged so early to soft drapery of the Greek, or the close swathing of the Moyen-age period, any decided or general trend towards the stiff of the Chinese silhouette would be out of the question. Still, just by way of varlety, the! bolero of Chinése suggestion is de- | lightful. / It is a straight, lined stiff! affair that extends from an upatnnd-i ing collar line to a line a little be-| low the hips. In the sketch you may see how this type of bolero has been interpreted with short sleeves. It is bound with plaited white brald—a trimming that, of course, lacks Chinese precedence. The material is navy blue crepe. It is worn over a frock of white linen Mawn embroidered in blue and trimmed with white flounces. There is no.reason to be surprised at the extremly sjhort sleeves of this little jacket. Nor & it surprising that it is worn over a sleeveless frock. You may have imagined that—just because the leading dressmakers in Paris have shpwn numbers of very long sleeves, long and flowing, long and clinging, long and bell-shaped— the very short sleeve is entirely passe. This i certainly not the case, and the won with an arm that is slender but still gracefully rounded.l can find excuse enough to reveal it by day as well as by night. And, of course, gloves are as unnecessary now with the short-sleeved frock as ever. However, the M: the fashion for v adeleines have set tts of net or lace, and most of their very short-sleeved afternoon frocks have mitts of this sort to go with th A NAVY BLUE CREPE JACKET, EDGED WITH PLEATED WHITE BRAID, AND WORN OVER A FROCK OF WHITE LINEN EM- BROIDERED IN BLUE AND TRIMMED WITH WHITE FLOUNCES.

The student stands between two upright parallel ar enough apart so that extended at right angles to his body. He grasps the bars with both hands and pulls alternately first with the ‘right, then with the left hand. This exercise strengthens laterally the muscles of the shoulders. It you cannot take the exercise this way you can get an almost identi- cal action by means of a stretching board. This is nothing but a piece of board, which need not be more than four inches wide, but which should be a8 long as the distance from palm to palm of each hand when your arms are stretched out on either side el with your shoulders.

And prob’ly only found moth balls? Well, that's exactly what has happened to the human race—and if we had sense enough fo let the fever run its course, it would work out just as it did when we were children. For tantalizing centuries we've been forbidden to “look,” and our women have gone about swathed in crinoline, halir cloth, alpaca and other insulation so that no one could get 2 peek.

And it is rather & waste of time to spend many minutes over the making of the luncheon des- sert. Here are some that are not too con- suming of time and that are also delicious: Apple Tarts—Butter slices of bread thickly and- either brown them a little on both sides in the gas stove toaster, or else brown them in a skillet. Then place them in a drip- ping pan, and on each pile some &p- ples, peeled, cored and cut in quart- ers and stewed until tender but not shapless. Over all sprinkle plenty of brown Bugar and cinnamon and cook in the oven for ten or fifteen minutes. I Tart shells of any kind are an ex- cellent foundation for luncheon des- sert. Make them in a batch when you . make ple and have them on hand. Filled with jam or jelly they are ways a good dgssert. Or you may' fill " them “with ‘half a canned mchl or with fresh strawberries. Top them with whipped cream or soft custard lmll serve them for a delicious des- sert. Boliled rice sérved with sauce made of butter and brown sugar or with nutmeg cream—cream sweetened and sprinkled generously with grated nut- meg—this is a dessert worth eating. Homemade charlotte russe, made of whipped cream and lady fingers. Or a dessert of canned fruit poured over lady fingers and macaroons crumbled together and topped with a meringue or whipped cream.
