% ( [ of WOMAN’S PAGE. Plans for the Spring Sewing NE of the most popular and at the same time practical dresses' for spring 1is the simple chemise dress, which can easily be made by the home dressmaker, and which has so many possibilities for change. One pat- tern will serve as a gulde for mak- ing many different dresses of wool, silk or wash material. The founda- tion may be the same cut for all The kind of material used and the style of trimming applied is what will afford the changes. This simple but attractive style of . “dress may be worn with a belt or not, whichever you choose. It may be made with a bodice in a contrasting fabric to the skirt and in a contrast- ing color as well. It may have a £rill or flounce at the knee, but how- ever it is' trimmed it will still be a plain, simple chemise dress when shorn of its flounces, trimmings, tunic or buttons, which give it style. If buttons are used as a trimming they may be placed straight down the front or stralght down the back of » beltless dress. Braid and box, knife or accordion pleatings are also used as trimmings on such a dress. If pleatings are used they must be fine. A dress made in _a long, straight line, with a set-on circular or pleated flounce below the knee, suggesting the: long, separate overtunic, is very stylish and is easy to make: The necks to these simple dresses should be finished in square or in V-shape line. There may be a collar- less neck finish, or o narrow lingerie or linen collar may be worn, or a bertha collar mays he made of the dress materfal in single or in double tier effect. The sleeves should be either very long or very short, made in the leg-o-mutton style, or tho long, tight sleeve with a wrist puif, or with a puff at the elbow, or with & wide, flared dircular frill the wrist. ~The skirts should be made phort for strect wear, and rather scant as well, if made with u rippling ruffle finish. ‘There is only one length for skirts for children's clothes and that s as short as can be. Coatsand dresses just come to the knee. Materials and Trimmingw. There are embroidered linens, gandies and batistes for spring = summer dresses, trimmings and col- lar and cuff sets. Tier hands in white linen, for instance, are scaloped in color ' and with eyelet-work embrofd- ery. / Unbleached linen bands, rang- ing in widths from an ipch and a half to four inches, are used as trimmings for sports costumes, embroidered in brilliant colors in silk or in a com- bination of siik and wool.- Both cotton and silk nets will be used for entire dresses or in full gathered punel effects over heavy satin foundatlon slips. These nets are cmbroldercd in scroil design, with embroldered motifs in colored silk ribbons. Metal Jaces and nets are embroldercd in colored wilks in jew- eled effects. Circular flouncings tn all widths, from the very narrow to the skirt width in black net em- broldered in silk, metal or combina- tions of silk and metal, or silk and cotton, and even silk, weol and cot- ton. Many circular fiouncings of net which are embroidered in silk or cot- ton, are made in_one und two color combinations and in bluck with a color. Organdy flouncings and or- gandy robes with cutwork patterns in all-over designs, in two and three color combinations, are handsome. White organdy collars and cuffs are made with x hand-scalloped edge in color. The old-fashioned white Sw flouncings, embroidered in white solid, floral-filled-in_patterns, are ¢ and attractive. Then there Chinec: embroidered laces. An attractive design ecru batiste cmbroidered in close, over floral desixn, in Chinese style, in silik in soft shides of green, yel- low or blue, relieved by white. ] Individual Touches. A motif of flowers {s one of the most popular dress decorations and very charming ones can be made at home. A little experimenting with some scraps of silk, lace, chiffon or velvet that blend with your dress, and you, wiil be surprised at the garden of gay flowers that will bloom under your hand. One bouquet is made of tiny flow formed of narrow velvet and iy toned satin ribbons. Loops and ends of the satin ribbons stand out lfke rays of radiance against a full, wide strip of silver ribbon. Tt is 'round like a corsage bomquet and is worn at the left hip with streamers. Tiny cnes like it should be made for the slippers. You can muke a tive insertion for children's wash dresses with the novelty picot braid that can be bought at any dry goods store. Into h picot put three double crochet stitches with a single stitch between. You can use either white or colored thread. The col- ored thrcads used for embroldery werk are heavy enough for the crocheting and are most attractive when they are combined with colored embroidery on white linen or lawn. Most women who make their own clothes know the decorative effect of embroidered washable covered but- tons for a wash dre Such buttons are easy to cover and casy to em. brotder. Washable bone button molds have taken the place of wooden molds, So that wash dresses trimmed with embroidered buttons need not be spoiled by the breaking of the buttons. These molds can be ‘bought in_all sizes. ‘Whatever size you buy, cover each one with a circular piece of linen or other material to match your dress and sew on soutache or other fine braid in a _simple design or em- brolder a design with mercerized flows in white or a color, One skein of tloss will ornament a dosen small buttons. A pretty and easy design is in the form of a daisy. an be bought rs mple and effec- In the centér of the button make a ) few French knots, then work out from the center an outline or chain to form the petals. The point of each petal should be held in place by a small stitch. A simple and effective ornamentation is made by working from the center of the but- ton straight lines of different lengths to form a symmetrical pattern. A flower petal design is made by out- lining the petals with very fine braid, using a few stitches of floss in the center to simulate stamens, Uncut eyelets worked in buttonhole stitch are quickly madd and are pretty. Another good design zim of the covered button in a but- tonholo stitch, th fill the center the button with small worked in small French knots.

Nightgowns, chemises, combinations and pantaloons are pro- vided .with one or all of the above mentioned details, The pocket may Dbe smill and the monogram may be large; but the entire garment must be short, except the nightgown, which is sleeveless with a pointed or square neck finish. All pantaloons should be ¢cut wide enough to form short skirts. Net, embroidered and.appliqued, is oxtensively used as a trimming on fine underwear, also pleatings of net: Sheer fabrics, flowing draperies and wing effects are features of the new models in negliges. Two-color effects are used, and sheer Chantilly lace in silk, or In silk and metal, with mara- bout, are an attractive trimming. Marking of Line: The conventional stitches:used for household linen are few in number and not hard to make. For sheets and pillowcases the stitches used are ordinary hand hemming, hemstitching and the buttonhole stitch for em- broidery scallops. Frequently - the upper end of the sheet {s hemstitched and the lower end just hemmed. Monograms of cross-stitch or outline stitch can be used effectively. In the case of using a single letter a slender outlined oval of satin stitch around the letter Is very attractive. For sheets use a large letter or mono- gram and place.it directly in the mid- dle of the upper end, an inch or two from the top hem. The lower part of the letter must be near the hem, 8o that when the sheet is folded back upon itself the letter can be read by a| person standing at the foot of the bed. The upper hem should be about four inches wide, the lower hem one inch to an inch and a half. Pillowcases should be marked either an inch or two above the hem at the middle or at the lower outside corner above the hem. Blankets can he marked with silk on u satin oval, appligued to the blanket with button- hole or uather stitch in the same po- sition as on the sheet, For table linen the most usual finish is plain hemming, French overhand hemming, hemstitching or scalloping. Tablecloths should have two mono- grams, in diagonally opposite corners, =0 that one will cor ut the right of the host and the other at the right of the hoste: On_ napkins the mono- gram should lie dtagonally across the corner that will be on the outside when the napkin is folded. Doilles to work the tadding two should be marked at the edge or in the center. Hund towels may be hemmed, hem- stitched, scalloped or finished with de- signs in cross stitch, satin stitch or Swedish or Mexlean drawn work. A monogram or initial should be placed just above the hem at the middle of one end. Bath towels may be hemmed or hemstitched. A single style of letter or monogram should be used in varying sizes for the entire outfit of household linen: The Weakly News. Weather. Cold in spots sutech as the end of your nose.

Why Women Excel in Small Talk Says It's an Art to Talk Much and Say Little A CORRESPONDENT asks: “Why do women talk so much and say so little?” I don't know, unless it is because women are just human belngs and all of us humans, male and female alike, love the sound of our own volces and few of us of either sex haye any very profound thoughts or deep philosophy to promulgate. Furthérmore, nobody would listen to us if we had. Try to hold a serious conversation with your dinner partner and he or she will turn a cold shoulder on you and beam upon the persdn who s babbling nonsense on .the other side. Attempt to describe to your friends the marvelous things you saw in Tibet, and they weep tears of boredom and remember pressing engagements that take them elsewhere. Let it once become known that your favorite topics are religion, world politics, the new movements in art and literature, and people flee from you as they would a leper. And 1f no one will lend an ear to a man whose disconrse Is highly intelligent ‘and edifying, still less does the general public crave the soelety of the woman whose talk bristles with wit and wisdom, and that forces her auditors to do that highly disagrecable act of thinking. The name of the strong-minded woman has always been anathema and zbout the only ‘dates” that a lady hichbrow ever knows nything about are the dates of the famous events in history. . Therefore, we all chatter. First, because it is easier to talk without thinking than it is to think of something worth talking about, and, lastly, !because our friends and acquaintances would not stand it 12 we tried to present them with real solld eighteen-karat ideas. cesse ESPECIALL\' is this true of women. Women are expected to twitter like canary birds, and the minute they stop this and begin to discourse with owl-like wisdom they are done for. They speak to the empty air, for there is not a listener in earshot. Once upon a_time 1 went with one of the most highly intelligent and cultivated men I have ever known to pay a call upon a famous woman who was a graduate of many colloges, and had half of the uiphabet trailing after her name; who spoke many languages, and who had held many high positions in many lands. She was a brilliant and eloquent speaker and Just to listen to her talk wus a liheral education in itself. Nevertheless as e got homic my compaulon sald to me: “Heavens! Think of the horror of being married to a woman like that! A woman who would talk to you ubout the Efnstein theory at breakfast and ask you while you were shaving what you thought of the situation in the Balkans and the self-determination of some people you never heard of! Why, 2 man who is intcrested in_that sort of thing reads about it. He doesn’t want to talk about it at home. 1 like a woman who babbles on like a brook and that T can listcn 1o with one ear and half a lobe. of my brain. 1 don't want Niagara eternully thundering over my head. \ Perhaps the reason that women talk o much and say 80 little is because thousands of years of eaperience have taught them that that is the kind of conversation that men like to hear. When the tired business man comes home at night he wants to be amused and entertained ant diverted by the itehat of o cheerful woman who can make a good story of her day, and Who has gathered up all the little fas ends of gossip of thelr eircle. So the cléver wife bubbles on about the Joneses having a new baby and the Smith girl boing enguged and the Browns having lost their cook and the cute thing the baby did and the funny experience she had with the butcher's boy. And husband grunts from time to time to show he is listening, pricking up his ears when she relates a juicy bit of scandal of the “They-say” order. Then he probably says something scathing about how much women talk and what an awful thing it is to repeat a slander, and wife smiles because he never stops her until she is through and he has gotten the last word. ! cene | JT is only among themselves that women discuss the great problems, such as husbands and children and points of ethics, life, deuth and the great hereafter, And when they do, they have shrewd and profound thoughts that would astonish their husbands to whom they merely chatter at home, | Of course, men's gibe at women for talking too mugh is as old as the {nils. But no mun s sincere in making it, for no man likes a silent woman. You never hear of the dumbbells ringing wedding bells. Nobody's idea of a happy home is one presided over by z glum, speechless woman, or a woman whose conversation sounds like an oration from a lyceum platform. On the contrary. the ideal wife and mother and home maker 15 a gay and chatty woman who is a good gossip, and who has « thousand intercsts of which she can talk without malice or backbiting.

Long legs may lack something in grace, But give me them to win & race. —Peter Rabbit. How would you feel if ,ust when you were sure that everything was eafe you saw one of yqur worst enemles right in front of you? If you can guess what such a feeling {s lké you will know Just how Peter Rabbit felt when he saw Reddy Fox come around the end of tho dear Old Briar Patch. Reddy saw Peter at the instant Peter saw him. Reddy bounded forward o as to get between the dear Old Briar Patch and Peter. There was joy in those yellow eyes of his, He grinned. There wasn't a doubt in Reddy's shrewd head that at last his chance had come and he would catch Peter Rabbit. He knew that if Peter turned and ran back he could catch him long before he could reach u place of safety. There was only one place thut Peter could eseape from him, and that was the Dear Old Briar Patch, and he was between Peter and the Dear Old Briar Patch. He felt as sure of Peter as If he had already seized Peter in those wicked looking tecth of s Peter Rabbit saw it all just us Reddy Fox did. To turn and run back the way he had come would be useless. He must get into the Dear Old Briar Patch. There was only one way to do it, and that was to somehow outwit Reddy FFox. Reddy was already trotting forward to meet him. Peter stopped. He half turned as if to start back. Reddy be- gan to run a little faster toward him. Suddenly Peter whirled and started straight toward Reddy X as fast as his legs could take him. It wus so sud- den and unexpected that Reddy didn't know just whut to make of it. Peter could see the surprise and uncertainty He'llthink,” thought Peter, I'm going to try to dodge him. This is exuctly what Reddy did think. So Reday prepared to jump cither one way or the other after Peter. He knew that Peter might dodge him once or twice, but hec was sure that Peter wouldn’t be able to do more than that. “that Answers to Food Questions Answers to readers’ quextions regarding diet will be given by Winifred Stuart Gibbs, food apectalist, writer and lecturer on nutrition.

'Evers effort will be made to answer questions promptly, but we bexpeak the ind gence of our readers for any unavoidable delay. The number of letters recelved is largs aud each must take it« turn.— Address: Winl- fred Stuart Gibbs, 37 West 29th strest, New York city. Kindly inform me as to the merits of the following diet. I am the un- fortunate possessor of a badly coated tongue, and at night while sleeping dream incessantly and tall a good bit, besides tossing and rolling about, ete. One hour before breakfast I take a glass of water and an orange. For breakfast, one large bowl of bran cereal, orie-half pint of eream (four days @ week), Tich milk with the cereal the three other days and about two ounces of figs. ‘or lunch, twy raw cggs beaten up and cuten with two thick slices of sraham bread thickly buttered, one pint of milk, about two stalks of cel- ery (thres days u week), @ handful of raisins and one apple. For dinner, three or four vegs bles, such as peas, beans, onions, car- rots, spinuch, asparagus, potutoes about three times a week (then only two vegetables), such as lamb chops, roast beef or steak; one glass of but termilk wbout thres times o week and two slices of graham bread with a piece of butter—R. C. W. As to the dict which vou outline, it ts, in ftself, almost {deal. It occurs to me, howcver, what you say of a coated tongzuc und restiess slecp prob- ably indicates one of several things. Efther you arc not taking enough ex- ercise to help in the digestion of &0 “rich” a diet, or you are perhaps suf- fering from a temporary disarrange- ment of your digestion. 1 e the following suggestions in general, as I do not know anything about your age, occupution, te.: Try ‘omitting cream avith your ce- real temporarily, using whole milk instead. I strongly suggest that the fat digestion portion of vour digestive system may be overworked. It may be well to vary your lunch and post- pone raw eggs temporarily. Put in their place a dish of cream of vege- tab >up, such as pew or bean or celery, alternating with a dish of hot cooked vegetables. Your dinner plan 25 outlined probably needs a change. It may be that the cream and the eggs are at the hottom of the disturb- ance. To digest these, one must be very active. You will understand, T am sure, that T do not advise giving up either of these valuable foods permanent! You will probably find, however, that when you go back to eggs it will be better to have them _shirred or poached, at least for a time. My baby is thirteen months old and has always been constipated. Per- haps you could give me a diet for him that would help—W. E. V. H. It is very important thut you con- tinue to be systematic about the baby's food. Some mothers ara apt to think that when the baby begins to eat solid food he can do pretty much as he likes: but this is not true. ‘Be_very careful about hours of feed- ing und size of portions. You do not say whether the baby has any bottle feedings or not. Usu- ally at this age a baby is just gradu- ating either from the bottie or breust feeding and still has feedings at & and 10 a.m. and 2, § and 10 p.m. For BY THORNTON ‘W. BURGESS FOX. Straight on came Peter. Reddy crouched rexdy to spring. Ilis_eyes were flxed on Peter so as to see which way Peter was going to dodge. Peter didn't dodge. At the point where Reddy { expected him to dodge he seemed to run | faster than ever, and then he made a | fiying leap in the alr. Yes, sir, he | made a flying leap in the air. HQI jumped right over Reddy Fox! You know, those stout hind legs of hia were made for jumping.

By the time Reddy had whirled around Peter was streaking it | straight for the Dear Old Briar Patch. Reddy wasted no time. He was after | Peter in a flush. Peter was already | tired. and he couldn’t run his best. Reddy gained at every jump. Thr. more jumps would take Peter into the § Dear Old Briar Patch and safety. Would H he_make t? One! It secmed to Peter that Reddy was right at his heels. Two! Peter was sure that he felt Reddy’s breath. Three! Peter plunged headlong under a friendly old bramble, und Reddy landed with & crash right in that very bram- ble. He was just too late. (Copyright, 1621, by T. W. Burgess.)
