FEATURES THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. O, WEDNESDAY, JULY 9, 1924 WOMAN’S PAGE Circular Skirt for Sportswoman BY MARY MARSHALL. Certainly no one could say that the circular skirt idea had met with any very enthusiastic reception. There are at most only “circular tenden- cies” and “circular effects” that do little to detract from ‘the perfect parallel of our pencil silhouette. For we still all aspire to be pencils ap- parently. To be sure we caunot all be slender, but what bulk we have inust be fiattened out into the perfect parallel of a pencil—a stout, chunky carpenter's pencil perhaps, but still a peneil. No, there really has been little room for the circular skirt in most of our clothes. There is just one exception It is a fashion that has come in by the country club door. We may have none of the cireular skirt for dance frocks, for suits, for afternoon frocks—but the skirt that is uncompromisingly cir- cular is the choice of the best-dressed Young woman for sports at the pres- ent time. Perhaps it is a frank admis- sion that the wrap-around skirt was not quite suitable. The circular sport skirt shown in the sketch is of yellow flannel, fitting tightly around the hips. The circular effect’ which gives considerable full- ness about the hem is due to triangu- lar godets at the sides. It is worn with a yellow flannel vest bound with black—this vest striking a new note in its tendency to fit snugly around the waist. Quite the latest trick among the makers of smart sport skirts is to finish th flannel sport skirts around the walist for all the world as if they were trousers—narrow strapped belt at the back anl all, Interestingly enough ' tasre is lit- tle inclination now to wear the sepa- rate sport skirt dropped to iie hips. Undoubtedly this is oecaus: such an arrangement was practically im- possible to any but a very few sl der women. Now the skirt is frankly worn as low as possible a2t the “nor- mal” waistline and when the tuck-in blouse is worn—as it irequently js— the line between blouse and sKir. is spanned or covered by a wide b sometimes of bright colored striped ribbon.

In talks about chronic bronchitis I have told rather more than I really pretend to know about recurring win- ter cough, bronchiectasis and bron- chorrhea, and 1 have described in de- tail the home use of various remedial agencies. Having discussed the rem- edies 1 now approach the old stone wall where 1 seem to delight in but- ting my head. The special hygiene of bronchitis—a tender subject, for ade- guately dealing with which word fail me. Clothing. The bronchitic, child or adult, should have justas much cloth- ing as a normal person, but not more. For most bronchitics light or medium weight underwear is best for all but the two or three hot months of the year, and the material should be wool or mostly wool with stockings of sim- ilar weight and material. No extra layers should be worn over the chest or any other portion of the body. For outdoor life in very cold weather it is better to put on two light suits of underwear or to depend on such ad- ditional warmth as extra outer cloth- ing gives. Instead of being a protec- tion indoors, excessively heavy under- wear or extra layers of clothing over the chest are injurious—they keep the victim uncomfortable.ahd.they lower his natural resistance to infections of the respiratory tract. 1n the case of a woman who would follow the fashion and wear little or no clothing over the chest, I regret to say Y think that is perfectly hygienic if the wom- an finds it comfortable to go dressed, or rather undressed, in that fashion. Many women do. Normally a woman ears a layer of subcutaneous fat, which is a very slow heat conductor, and that explains why she is com- fortable under conditions which would make the average man shiver. Footwear. The stockings should match the underwear in weight and texture. That seems to insure the greatest physical comfort under vary- ing conditions indoors and out. 1 am going to refrain from saying that no harm is done by getting the feet wet occasionally, or by sitting around with wet feet when it happens to be inconvenient to change to dry foot- wear. I don't want to arouse too much oppugnance—as 1 said, my head wet. A cat dislikes to get her feet his feet now and then should know is too sore. But it does seem to me that anybody who ventures to wash there is no_danger in getting them wet. Some folks are very catty about this question. I'm rather dogged in my conviction. And so we have it back and forth like cats and dogs Suit yourself about it—get ‘em wet or keep 'em dry, they're your feet and it is your health that is con- cerned, but if you are a bronchitic and have any ambition to get better 1 advise you never to be robbed of your daily airing and exercise by fear of getting vour feet wet. OXygen on the wet hoof is just as healthful as any other brand. f Bathing. Persons subjezt to bron- chitis should cultivate the morning shower bath habit. Make it short but cold. A mere sprinkle at first, then a quick rub with a rough towel. If there is a pleasant reaction it is fine medicine. 1If there is depression or chilliness after the bath, better g0 dirty. If you have no shower, then try the cold bath over neck*and chest every morning—kind of a bird bath, a mere splash just for the fun of it MOTHERS AND THEIR CHILDREN. A Bargain in Books. ©One Mother Says: What To::lay Means to You BY MARY BLAKE. Caucer. Today's planetary aspects are nega- tive rather than positive, although toward the latter part of the eve- ning they become decidedly adverse. The day is favorable for performing minor tasks which have been in contemplation for some time past, but either neglected or unfinished. No new undertaking should be attempt- ed, unless it is in connection with your ordinary routine work. In the evening all argument, so far as pos- sible, should be avoided, as conditions indicate a predisposition to quarrel- someness and acriminous sentiment.

T chose my books with extreme care, selecting from the best literature, yet taking care that the stories were interest- ing. In a short time he was asking me to choose more books, and now is quite content for me to do all the selecting, because my books ‘were more interesting than his.

The child’s disposition will be bois- terous, and its character “happy-go- lucky.” It will not shine at school studies, but will show a decided preference for outdoor sports and recreations. It will be fearless of consequences. Is today your birthday? You have much -in your character that com- mands respect and invites affection. Your disposition is affable, and your Ppersonality attractive. You could go a long way on these assets, if it were not for an inclination to be exaggera- tive, which is an ever-present liability. Your exaggeration assumes many forms, such as diplomacy, expediency and moral reservation. Sometimes it assumes the form of equivocation or moral dodging—twisting and so stating the things said as to convey a false impression—a kind of lying which a Frenchman once described as_“walking round about the truth.” Sometimes it exhibits itselt in reticency on the one hand, or exag- geration on the other; in disguise or concealment in pretended concurrence in others' opinions; in assuming an attitude. of conformity which is de- ceptive in making promises, or allow- ing them to be implied, which are never intended to be performed, or even in refraining from speaking the truth when to do 5o is a duty. The persons most admired are those: “Whose armour is their honest thought And simple truth their utmost skill.” Well known persons born ‘on this date are: Oliver W. B. Peabody, law- yer, and Willlam B. O. Peabody, clergyman, twins; Thomas Daven- port, electrical inventor; Elias Howe, inventor; Philip P. Bliss, composer of “Hold the Fort” and “Pull for the Shore™; James M..Beck, lawyer; John C. Calhoun, financier. (Copyright, 1924.) Cucumber Fritters.

YOUR HOME AND YOU BY HELEN KENDALL. Sightseeing Made Easier. To city dwellers the influx of sum- mer visitors brings a groan of dis- may at thought of the wearying pound of sightseeing to be gone through, Naturally the relative from the far west wants to see the attrac- | tions of the eastern coast or inland cities, and the easterner is eager to see the far-famed attractions of the sunset country. Southerners find New England fascinating, and dwellers along the Canadian border are in- terested to sce the tropical beauty of the far south. The relative from the remote village is awed by the great museums and the city to wander along country roads. To the hostess whose task it is to do the honors of her community this person likes means not only a serious interrup- tion of her customary routine, but the fatiguing cxperience of walking or riding miles a day to look at things she has seen a thousand times before. Her heart may be gladdened by a visit with her friends or rela- tives, but her exhausted body is apt to collapse after the last of them has said good-bye. Yet she has to \keep going, hospitably and cheer- fully. 1t is up to vistiors, therefore, to make sightsecing as little of a tax on the hostess as can be managed. If a trip is planned for one day, the guests should tactfully go off by themselves the next day. shopping or making a side trip, while the hostess rests and devotes her time to her household. If a dinner and theater party are arranged for one evening, visitors should insist upon not at- tempting anything energetic for the next day. We are all as busy as we can pos- sibly be, most of the time. Even one additional jaunt takes just so much out of our program of daily duties; and when this is multiplied by inces- sant sightseeing for several days, the home routine gets sadly behind and the homemaker desperately weary. The thoughtful guest can easily plead special errands which can be done without the hostess' accompanying her, and this gives the latter a chance to catch up with many little respon- sibilities to family and neighbors. A great mistake generally is to take a child on a sightseeing tour. Khildren invariably get tired and cross, and beg to go home before the party has fairly started. Leave the fittle folks behind when visiting art galleries, climbing towers, wandering through department stores, or other- wise seeing the sights. Favorite Recipes of Prominent Women BY EDNA M. COLMAN. Candied Squash. Mrs. Bertha Woodward Underwood, Wife of Senator Underwood. In Mrs. Oscar Upderwood the wom- en of the south are most ably repre- sented and their traditions faithfully upheld. While she has taken no ac- tive part in political matters and no one could accuse her of campaigning for her distinguished husband, yet her friends claim that she draws votes for him as a magnet draws steel, among the people who come under the spell of her personality. Every- body who knows Mrs. Underwood is just bound to vote for the senator. Early a suffragist, and always con- versant with the big public questions, she is unusually well lnfnrhd upon ‘world problems. A native of West Vir- ginia, she was educated at Mount Auburn, Ohio and in Paris. She has an operatic voice which delights her friends, and has made her music her lifelong hobby. Mrs. Underwood clings to the old favorites of the south in choice of her menus and recommends a candied delightful way to serve a little appre. clated and much neglected vegetable. Candied Squash.—Peel and slice the squash. Put pleces in the pot with enough water to cover them and cook until very tender. Then add & cup of sugar and one-quarter pound of but- ter.

By ‘managing’ I do not mean ruling. I have no desire to boss my husband, and no ambition to be a henpecking wife. I simply ute the word ‘manage’ in the feminine sense, which means handling your husband with gloves, and possessing the gentle art of sidestepping his pecullarities, and getting what you are entitled to without fighting for it, and living with him in peace and harmony instead of strife.” Well, my dear, there are just as many ways of managing a husband as there are different varietics of husbands, and all of them work if applied to the proper cases. It is a matter of technique, and that has to be adapted to the Individual idiosyncrasies of the particular man you have drawn in the matrimonial lottery. The method which is a sure-fire hit with one husband is a flivver with another, for some husbands have to be bluffed, while others have to be jollied. ' Some wives have to use strong-arm methods, while the patient Griselda stuff wins out for others. Some husbands can be worked by tears, \while the key to others has to be greased with salve. It all depends on the man. Let us consider some of the common or garden variety types of husbands: First, the sensitive husband who is always getting his feelings hurt and who pouts and glooms around the house, and when asked what is the matter, replies, “Oh, nothing.” and wears the general look of an early Christian martyr. He is easy. He just wants to be babied, and petted, and kissed, and told he is the most boofulest sing in the world, mudders fair-haired, pre- cious boy. The wife with this sort of a husband should be her own press agent, and call his attention to every single, solitary thing she does for him, and tell him how she considers his taste in every bit of the food she buys for dinner, and how she runs the house to please him, and what a precious privilege it is to put the studs in his shirt. This will soothe his ingrowing sense of importance, and make him eat out of her hand. PR 'HEN there is the bossy man. The man with the head-of-the-house com- plex. It is mere child’s play to manage him, if his wife will only take the trouble to seek his advice on every subject from buying her lingerie to asking him what she thinks she thinks. No woman can come nearer to doing as she pleases than the wife of the bossy man, because he is so swelled up over her asking his advice that he never notices whether she takes it or not. Then there is the self-conceited man. Any girl baby can manage him -if she has the industry to fan him with hot air. All that his wife has to do is to tell him how great and how wise and how handsome he is to con- vince him that she is the Only Woman in the world. AIL that she needs to do to get whatever she wants is to make him believe that he originated the idea of buying a new car, or moving into a better neighborhood, and the trick is done. There's the high-tempered man, who flies into mad rages and swears and curses. The way for a wife to handle a man of this sort is to beat him to it, and get so much angrier than.he does, and make so much more of a scene, and say so many shrewish things that she terrorizes him. And a woman can do this if she will. When it comes to the use of the tongue no man can hold his own with a woman. He lacks swiftness and staying owers. ® There are three ways to deal with a grouch. One is by his wife call- ing his bluff, and telling him that she will not stand for his acting like a spolled child, and that he has either to cheer up or get out, until he can be human once more. The second is by ridicule, and by holding him up as a figure of fun for the household to laugh af. The third is for the wife simply to ignore that hubby has gone into a state of frozen silence, and that every one is being punished for something having gone wrong by baving the sunlight of his presence withdrawn. HERE isn't a bit of fun in grouching if nobody notices that you are doing it, and it apparently dosen’'t incommode any one, or interfere with their pieasure. To try to placate a grouchy husband., and win him out of his black mioods is a fatal mistake. It encourages him in them, and furnishes him with a weapon to hold over the heads of the family The best way to manage a tightwad husband is by appealing to his vanity. He will generally come across with an allowance rather than let his wife carry out her threat to get a job as a dress model in order to get the clothes she needs. Also the combination to the safety lock on his pocket- book is the suggestion that he isn't as good a business man as Mr. Jones, and can't afford to give his family what the Joneses have. But when a man is really miserly nothing but chloroform will do the work, and the only way his wife can get money out of him is to arise in the night and go through his pockets. And so it goes. To each man his own method, and wise is the wife who studies her husband and ascertains to which mode of treatment he DOROTHY DIX. yields. (Copyright, 1924.) BEDTIME STORIE! wide awake in an instant. Peter had made no more than two frightened jumps before Reddy was on his feet and after him. My, my, my, you should have seen Peter go then! If ever there was a frightened rabbit, that one was Peter. He had though: to play a joke on Jimmy Skunk, and instead the joke was on him. He had wakened the very last one in the Great World whom he wanted to waken. Yes, sir; the joke was on Peter. But Peter didn't sce any joke about it. He was in a tight place, was Peter. He hadn’t very much of a start, and, you know, Reddy Fox is a fast runner. Glancing 'behind him, Peter could see that Reddy Fox was grinning. That grin made Peter feel more uncomforta- ble than ever, if that were possible. Peter knew that if he kept straight on down the Lone Little Path Reddy Fox would soon catch him. So at the first opportunity Peter dodged. He gained a little, but not much. Reddy had been watching for Peter to do just that thing and was ready for it. How Peter did wish he hadn't been tempted to play that jok How he did wish he had been satisfied to re- main in that bramble tangle for the rest of the afternoon! But wishes wouldn’t help him now. In and out among the trees he twisted and dodged. He was too frightened to even think where the nearest place of safety was. Several times the teeth of Reddy Fox came together with a snap at Peter’s rery heels. Fach time he had dodged fust in the nick of time. Peter was growing tired. It was be- coming more and more difficult to dodge quickly enough. Reddy Fox didn’t seem to be growing tired at all In fact, Reddy seemed to be enjoying that chase. He was. He felt sure of catching Peter. He knew that there was no bramble tangle near. He knew that there was no brush heap near un- der which Peter could crawl. He knew that nowhere around was a_hollow log or a hole in the ground into which Peter could dodge. Never had he felt Qquite so sure of catching Peter Rabbit as he did now. (Copyright, 1524, by T. W.

But the words were hardly out of his mouth before his heart reemed to jump right up in his throat. Right in the middle of that jump he discovered that he had made a mistake, a dreadful mistake. You sce, Peter had been sure that Jimmy Skunk was taking a nap behind that old log. He had seen a little tuft of white hair just behind the end of that old log and had thought at once that it was the tip of Jimmy Skunk's tail. He had thought it would be a great joke to “startle Jimmy Skunk, and he had felt quite safe in doing it. MY, MY, MY, YOU SHOULD HAVE SEEN PETER GO THEN! He knew that Jimmy couldn’t possibly catch him, and wouldn’t even try to. But as he bounded over that old log and looked down- he saw not Jimmy Skunk, but the very one he least wanted to see. It was eddy Fox, who was taking a nap there! ~Peter had forgotten that the tip of Reddy's tail is_also white. Reddy Fox did wake up.

Now, a kitchen table has a sreat deal to do With your tuccess is & cook. If it is your “pet abomination,” instead of the godsend to your work it should be, it may so distract you that your dinners often fall far short of perfection. When you select a kitchen table, then, comsider it first for solidity, its helght In comparison to yours, its drawer space and, above all, the ma- terial out of which its top is con- structed. The tops you will most frequently see are of wood, zinc, porcelain, glass, enamel, marble or galvanized iron. The kind you will want will depend somewhat on the use for which you intend the table. If you want it only for serving pur- poses, your main consideration should be a top that will be unhurt by heat. But if you intend it for a preparing table, you must get a top that will clean easily, will not absorb moisture or be stained by grease. And if you When We Go Shopping BY MRS. HARLAND H. ALLEN. for a table tope-is enamel, provided you can get it guarantecd not to chip and not to blister in the heat These have been, in ‘he past, the faults of the enamel table top; but it has been much improved of late. Glass tops are easily rleaned and have a spic-and-span appearance that is attractive, but they are, of course, easily cracked by hot dishes. You can’t use your meat grinder clamped to_the edge of such a top, either. ‘Wooden-topped tables have to be scrubbed constantly unless they are stained with oil, varnished, or, best of all, covered with oflclotn. Oilcloth covered tops are clean, weli-wearing and easily cleaned. But oilcloth, does not stand heat at all, and knives cut it easily. Zinc makes a durable anl inexpen- sive cover for a wooden table top, but, since acids and alkalis tarnish it, food may be harmed by coming in contact with it. Porcelain tops are stroag and weli- wearing. Marble tops are good for candy and pastry making. Galvanized irom, though not easy to clean, is not harmed by heat or stained by grease. There 1s practi- cally no “wear-out” to it. After the stage coach had passed across the stage at the Color Cut- outs’ Wild West Show and gone out again, Jack came out, dressed as a sheriff. He looked all around. *“I heard there's a plot on to rob the stage coach on its return trip,” he said. “A strange Mexican bandit has been seen hanging around, and maybe he’'s mixed up in it. 1 guess TNl just tak a look around and head off any trouble before it gets a good start.” The sheriff then took his trusty water gun out of his pocket and sneaked carefully out of the ring, as though he were looking for some one. The boys and girls waited breathless- ly for what would happen next. Color the sheriffs shirt and trousers tan and his hat and shoes brown. (Copyright, 1924.)
