While inspecting all of these items milady cannot but tweed as a medium for their develop- ment.

A touch of color con- trast, however, is a relief to the eve, and the really well dressed may choose a hat, scarf and pumps of one shade, but she will wear them with a suit or frock of a harmonizing but quite different tone. The very newest thing in gowns for i | front and b: SEEN IN THE WASHINGTON SHOPS BY ELENORE DE WITT EB holiday wear is silk moire. One shop is displaying a window full of moire frocks which, although they are not as soft and graceful as those of crepe, offer a welcome substitute for the ever-popular taffeta. The afternoon model sketched is of moire n a shade of Harding blue, and its lines make it really suitable only for the youthful figure. The dice has short set-in sleeves, finished with points, and is opened at the front to disclose a dainty gilet of cream-col- ored lace alternated with gathered bands of georgette. The skirt, which i pointed at the hem, flares decided- ly and the stiffness of the material renders wiring or a hoop ingertion unnecessary. The wide girdle, which is crushed in set folds, circles the waist just above the hips and ties in a large butterfly bow at the back. The hat pictured is an unsually { attractive model in black lisere straw an effective contrasted trim ming added in the form of delicate white camelias. The shape is small and it fits snugly around the coiffure, but its turban lines are varied by Grooping points at each side. The flower garlands outline the narrow turned-up brim and trace their way around the points, 8o that there is unbroken flower trail circling the hapeau. A lacing of white ribbons ppears between each point to add a further touch of white contrast to the solid black surface of the crown. STREET FROCK OF BRILLIANT RED FLANNEL EMBROIDERED IN WHITE. The street frock sketched is a stun- ning creation of brilliant red flannel enhanced with white wool embroid- 1t is made from one straight piece of material, with the waistline defined only by a slender belt of soft red kid. The neck. which s square. has a collar of white flannel embroid- ered in red. reversing the effect of the frock itself, and at the front it is slashed down to reveal a vestee of white. The sleeves are elbow-length and bell-shaped, and a border of white stitching forms their only orna- mentation. The skirt falis so that there are two deep folds. one at each side. which almost give the appearance of separate panels, since they extend slightly below the hemline at the Embroidery in the form of large squares joined b straight lines of wool stitching giv the effective finishing touch to this really unusual frock. A tailored sport hat might be worn with it. if one desired to accentuate its severe lines. but a softer model tipped with ostrich or aigrette would give a touch of contrast which might be more pleasing. Red and white sport pumps would of course be the thing in footwear, with red hose clocked in white as a complement. PERSONAL HEALTH By WILLIAM BRADY, M. D. Noted Physician and Author. SERVICE = Don’t Aggravate Germs. | A few who believe all they read still speak of ‘“the germ theory” in a facetious way as though to imply that the causation of disease by | germs were still debatable. One gen- erally finds these persons dabbling {with some kind of plausible treat- | ment for something or other, the ap- | peal of the treatment being based ! upon pseudo-scientific flapdoodle which serv 1o conceal the absurdity of the thing. Thus many tons of pleasantly scented mud are sold to the public annually on the strength of 2 bitf of near- ¢ “osmosis, which from i K makes im- pression on the mind of the poor ted physician and the -prescrib- ing nurs Be it a boil or a carbuncle, or an infected wound or any threatened “gathering,” the most grateful as- sistance one can render the germs consists of the application of a nice warm flaxseed meal poultice, or any other meal poultice. If the aim is to encourage rapid multiplication of the germs responsible for the trouble and aid_their spread to nearby fresh fields where they can start new boils, carbuncles or festers, then the thing to do is apply a big warm, moist poultice of flaxseed meal,” bread crumbs, corn meal, or whatever other feed you have in the house. The germs will rise up and call you blessed. If the aim is to refieve pain or dis- comfort from boil, carbuncle, infect- ed wound or threatened gathering, apply a large hot, moist dressing which is at least aseptic (free from germs), or not a favorable cultiure medium for the growth and multipl cation of germs, or even has anti- septic ' (opposing the multiplication of germs) properties. This consists of many layers or folds of gauze or cheese cloth which has been steri- lized by boiling, steam or heat, in a bulky mass upon the infected area, kept moist with water or some solu- tion applied as hot as endurable. Such a dressing serves every good purpose that can be served by any- thing in the poultice line, yet does not lend any encouragement to the activities of the germs responsible for all the trouble. One good solution with which to keep such a dressing moistened is a solution of a heaping tablespoonful of common salt in each pint of boiled water. Perhaps still better as favo ! ing drainage from the wound or boil or whatnot and at the same time aid- ing the natural germicidal activities of the blood itself, is a solution of al heaping tablespoonful of sodium ci -| trate with a heaping tablespoonful of common salt in each pint of hot boil- ed water. When there is already, or likely soon will be a discharge from the wound. the solution may be given sufficient antiseptic property to disin- fect the dressings by adding a heap- ing tablespoonful of boric acid along with one or both of the other harm- less remedies named. Some such dressing, always bulky and not a trial size affair, may well be applied at the first indication of any infection resembling . cai buncle or puisoned wound. This wet dressing constitutes a sanitary poul- tice and is the best kind of surgical first aid for the conditions mentioned. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS. The Doctor’s Lowbrow. I know a doctor who has a large family of children and all of them have low foreheads, yet they are ex- ceptionally bright and smart in school. I also know other persons with low brows who are quite intel- ligent. I would thank you for en- nghBu)nment in regard to this.—(Mrs. Answer.—The “low- brow” is rather a figurative epithet. Of course. the height or breadth of the forehead has practically no rela- tion to mental capacity. Serofula and Tuberculosis. What causes scrofula. and is it I|k|el to rl'llnllnln tuberculosis? Will cod liver oil in time cure it?—Mrs. C. J. M) & Answer.—Scrofula is an old-fash- ioned name for tuberculosis of the lymph nodes or “kernels” of the neck and sometimes of the skin. Cod liver oil is very useful as a remedy in many cases of tuberculosis in chil- dren. expression Here's a Rum Onet I am troubled with a red nos which shows up when I take a bottle or two of beer or smoke several cigars. In anti-prohibition days I drank a great deal of pure beer and smoked heavily, but had no red nose. If I smoke or drink nothing for a week or more this condition scams to leave me, but it comes right back after 1 indulge in a few cigars or a few drinks. Is it my stomach? Smoking makes me nervous, but I smoke anyway, as a fellow has got to do somethin, I also drink four »ups of coffe and two or three cups of tea every day.—(F. W. M.) Answer—Some fellows are great Jfuneral attendants, and in a pinch they arrange one of their own rather than have no pl to g0 or no amuse- ment. I print your query merely to prove that now and then a red nose really does depend on intemperance. ‘When a man arrives at a point where smokes merely because he anything to occupy his mind he is in grave danger. It is wrong to abuse the blessed weed that way. Frosted Marble Cake. This cake requires neither butter nor eggs. Sift together one and one- half cups of sugar, two cups of flour. two teaspoons of baking powder, one tablespoon of cofnstarch and one- fourth tgaspoon of salt. Rub one and one-half cups of lard finely into the mixture and add two tablespoons of cocoa and three-fourths cup of cold coffee to half of the mixture; then add three-fourths of a cup of milk and one teaspoon of vanilla extract to the second half of the mixture. Mix each part well, put in alternate layers in a buttered and floured cake tin and bake for three-fourths of an hour in a moderate oven. Frost with any preferred flavor, WOMAN'S PAGE D. C.

MORRIS & COMPANY Packers and Provisioners Miss Gladys is back from college with an A. B. tacked on her name and the wisdom of the ages tucked in her beauty case. And Gladys 1s working overtime telling folks where they can head in. There's maw, for instance. aw's a sort of human parsnip. Grubby and ordinary, filled with help- fulness and kindliness to the human race, but getting no more social recognition than the aforementioned vegetable. Maw did wonders to send Gladys through college. Went around almost in rags, did without her pititul little pleasures, so “her girl” could have a chance. And now Gladys is analyzing mother love for maw. “There’s really no such thing as un- selfishness,” says Gladys. “Mothers don’t really sacrifice for their chil- dren. They act that way because it gives them pleasure. There's selfish ness and self-interest back of all hu- man love. Love itself is a selfish in- stinc Maw listens and the tears blur her faded old eyes. She's no hand for arguing, is maw. but somehow she thinks that Glad under- Gladys doesn't. She knows raps of things out of books. but vhe has learned nothing from human hearts where the real wisdom of the world is kept. It's quite easy to take human motives apart and find the ecarthiness within them, but while vou are doing it the essential truth will e pe. What if maw’'s devotion and sacri fice do spring from the same racial instinct that makes a tigress protect her young? Suppose it is born in her and functions with every pulse of her heart? Does that make that instinct and its demonstration any less beau tiful or miraculous? You can put your finger on it—perhaps—but can "You explain it? And since you can't ex- plain it. hadn't you better hold your breath with awe? There is self-interest behind every human act—just as there is dirt be- neath every lily. Does that make the lily's bloom less beautiful or the dirt less valuable? Poets have stomach- aches and colds in their heads. Will you for that reason refuse to read Paradise Lost” or “Gunga Din?" Of course we do heroic and lovely things because something within us wants to do them. But isn't it a flaming wonder that we're made so we want to do them? Strawberry Jam in Cake.
