WOMAN’S PAG E. Wash Crepe of Check Type Popular BY LYDIA LE BARON WALKER. Wash crepe well deserves its popu- larity. It provides a material that is good-looking, casy to make up into gaiments, does not have to be ironed, and washes with the minimum of labor. So high in favor has crepe become that it appears each season in some novelty to add to its interest.

As for ‘ironing, crepe does not require any, so that part of laundry work is eliminated. One reason for the vogue of crepe, especially for lingerie, is that very item of no ironing. Boon to Travelers. Crepe lingerie is a boon to the traveler and a comfort to the busy housewife. Any woman who has used crepe, especially silk crepe lingerle, when taking an extended tour, real- izes its value. There are many times during such travels when fresh garments are badly needed, and there is no t{me to send them to be laundered. Ironing would be decidedly inconvenient, but washing the pleces may be easily managed. The dirt comes out of this fabric as if by magic, with water and a little soap. Lukewarm water is just as good and cold water will suf- fice—if it must. Shake and Dry. The light-weight crepes, whether the silk, the checked novelties or the usual fine-thread grades, are shoer enough to dry quickly. Garments may be washed at night, bung in a draught and left until morning, when they will be dry enough to wear or to pack in the suit case or trunk. For this emergency laundering be sure to squeeze and wring the articles free from all the water possible. Then shake vigorously and hang up to dry. 1f vou are at home, the samo Tule holds good about shaking, for mno added wrinkles are needed; crepe has cnough of its own! Pack in Small Space. Another advantage that light- weight crepes have is that they can be packed in so very small a compass and come out just as mnice looking as if they hadn't been crushed at all. This means a tremendous lot to trav- elers, for space is at a premium. When the time comes for that lons- anticipated vacation trip, crepe lin- gerie will save you much Inconven jenco as well as “mony a mickl By the way, the crepe is soft, pleas or machine. Tub Frocks of Crepe. The housewife will do well to have her apron dresses and simple house frocks made of crepe if she wants to continue to cut down the ironing proc- ess of wash d The crinkly crepes on in su ble colors for dresses, and there are plenty of dark { colored crepes for afternoon frocks.

The nurse was required to report to the inte that the patient had ceased breathing.

(Copyright.) WHEN WE GO SHOPPING BY MRS. HARL @ifts for Needleworker. Every woman who has mending or sewing to do will appreciate gifts in the way of sewing cquipment that will save her time, strength and nerves. When the homemaker must be cook, nurse, seamstress, janitress and a dozen other persons combined she will appreciate all the more the thoughtfulness that prompts the se- laction of gifts which help toward fitting out a well ordered workshop where her implementg can be kept in some sort of system “and thus keep the rest of the house free from the confusion of sewing and mending. Among the things necded to make a sewing room ideal are a lapboard, a skirt marker, shears, scissors, but- tonhole scissors, emerles, plenty of machine needles, sewing needles, a eupply of pins, a yardstick, a tape measure, tracing wheel, tailor's chalk, black and white hook and eyes and snap fasteners of every size. \ Many of these handy or essential little contrivances that help save time, etrength and money in sewing ene can pick up at the notions coun- ®r, and esst so little as to he a positive inesiration to the Christmas shopper, bui the cconomical woman often feels taat she must not buy ghem for hersalf. The sewing basket is very essen- tial to the scamstress, since it is a receptacle for the tools necessary in her work. Thero arec many styles 10 choose from, all the way from the big, roomy catch-alls, to hold in one’s lap, to the wicker stands to be car- rled about, and this gift can be as simple or as elaborate and expensive as one wishes. Pincushions are one thing of which the sewer never has enough. A small whetstone to be kept in the machine drawer, and that will enable one to repoint blum$ achine needles and AND H. ALLEN. hand needles immediately the damage is done, is a gift that will save many a penny and much annoyance. Ordi- nary scissors in three or four sizes are cssential to good work. A dress figure is a somewhat more pretentious gift, but would be a boon to any onc who scws, and enable one to it her own clothes without inde- pendent help. Probably few people would remember to give pressing boards and cloths, and yet they are very necessary in tho businese, and are exactly what one scamstress says she would like to recelve. White galatea or duck is used for hard pressing by professional tailors; for light pressing, cheesecloth is satis- factory. Covers of cambric, percale or some dust-resisting material are useful for covering finished garments or the one still on the dress form. Every seamstress needs half a dozen bags made of mosquito netting to hold left-over bits of like materials. A dust sheet to spread down on the {floor when working prevents the gar. ment in process from getting: solled, and makes it easy to keep the room clean. A large plece of denim with brass rings at intervals and a stout cord run through them enables one simply to pull the cord when she wants to clean up after her work, and all the rippings and snippings are®in a scrap heap in the middle of the cloth, ready to be transferred to ihe waste basket. i Deviled Almonds. Fry two ounces of blanched shred- ded almonds until well browned. Mix together two tablespoonfuls of chop- ped pickles, one tablespoonful of Worcestershire sauce, one-fourth tea- spoonful of salt, and a few grains of cayenne pepper. Pour over the nuts and serve as soon as thoroughly heated.

EAR MISS DIX. My husband is 24 and I am We have been married nearly two years and have a darling baby boy. My husband is good and kind and generous to me and the only disagreement we have is this: He is a fine dancer, and he thinks that I ghould be wlilling for him to go to dances occasionally. He has wanted to teach me to dance cver since I first knew him, but I have refused. He hasn't been to a dance for several months now, but he s getting restless and wants to go. He wants me to go with him, but I don't dance well and don’t enjoy it, and feel that it is a mother's place to stay with her baby. The upshot of it all is that I won't dance and won't go with him, and I don’t want him to go without me and we guarrel over it. What is your opinion? BLU Answer: In matrimony. it is a condition and not a theory that confronts Mr. Cleveland said about something else. and the woman who wishes to make her marriage a success has to deal with her husband as he fis, and not according to some fantastic ideal that she has set up. Evidently your conception of the perfect husband is a good, staid old work horse, who will jog along in double harness without ever a thought of kicking up his heels and prancing around a bit. But you have marrled a skittish colt, who chafes on the bit, and if you don’t want him to bolt you have to drive with a light hand on the reins. Every woman who marries a ga. d pleasure-loving man had as well | make up her mind at the beginning that she has to play around with him | nd keep him amused or lese him. So you can take your cholce of learning hotwv to dance and going to dances with him, or have him go.alonec and spend his even two-stepping | with pretty little flappers. There is un known method of nailing & man to his own fireside if he | wants to go out and amuse himself, and he very soon gets mighty tired | of a wite who is forever preaching to him and reproaching him, and who | is a perpetual wet blanket on every cecasion | A lot of neglected wives have only themselves n condition, to blame for their forle When they were first married their husbands asked them to step out With them as thev did betere marriage. but the foolish women refused. It was too much trouble to dress and fix their hair over. They didn't care for They didn’t enjoy the kind of piavs their husbands preferred spoiled a restaurant dinner by complaining of its price. They were, dull, peevish, bored companions. And so, very soon, their husbands quit asking them to go anywhere with them and found more adaptable lady companions. Of course, it is a mother's duty to look after her ba it except in competent hands, but it is equally her duty to look after her husband, and there are no safe hands in which she can leave him. You can't| get a perfectly rel oman to look after him of an evening. So my| advice to ¥ is to take a few private dancing lessons, and when | husband say Let's go to a dan. grab your hat and go along with him. The woman who doeswt keep up with her husband invariably gets left. DOROTHY DIX. nd not to leave ) D DOROTHY DIX: A young man wants to marry me. He is a very nice chap and T like him very much: but he i$ an only child, and his mother worshipe him and has spoiled him to death. What kind of a husband would he be likely to make? T do not like petting very much myself, and I don’t think I could pet him as his mother does. MILDRED. Answer: Of all undesirable husbands in the world, pet about heads the Nincty-nine times out of a hundred he never amounts to a hill of beans, because he has been coddled. and babied, and thielded from every unpleasantness until he hasn’t as much backbone as an angleworm, and when the stress of life comes upon him he just curls up and quits. Mildred, mother's Selfishness has been bred into his very bones. His mother has pampered him in every way. His wish has becn law. He has had the best of every- thing as his right. Mother has waited on him hand and foot. She has seen that he had exactly what he liked to eat. She has brushed his clothes, and pressed them, and put them away. She has picked up after him and never even expected him to ray “Thank you" or appreciate anything she has done for him. S0 if vou marry mamma’s pet vou are in for a lifetime of slavery, and of being a human doormat, and your husband won't even know that he is offering you up as a sacrifice to his own egotiem. IIis mother has taught him that women are merely a household convenience for the comfort of man | and he.will put ler teachings into practice on you. If you want 2 considerate husband, never marry an only son or an only brother in a family of girls. He has been spoiled. Pick out a man who be- longs to a big family; one wherc the mother was too busy with a houseful of voungsters to do more than bring them up on the kiss-'em-when-they-are- good and cpank-'em-when-they-are-bad platform. and who has had the di cipline that a lot of brothers and xisters give cach other. That sort of man knows how to give and take, and expects to put his own buttons in his shirt and hang up his own clothes instead of having a slave wife do it. DOROTHY DIX. “ e v e EAR MISS DIX: TIs the old-fashioned girl considered passe and not worth notice, or do people respect her for holding to her ideals? -T like fun and enjoy dancing and cards as much as any one, but when I am in- vited out in the evening and they serve drinks I always refuse. My fricnds tell me it is very impolite, and that people dub me a prude. Do you think it is a breach of etiquette, and that I am offending my hostess by So doing, or should I turn a deaf ear to my consclence for the sake of “What will people say?” OLD-FASHIONED. Answer: If you call being modest and ladylike old-fashioned, you may rest assured that all worth-while people admire that type of girl far more than they do the bold, cigarette-smoking, cocktail-drinking, roughneck sort of girl. The girl who looks and acts like a hoodlum is getting on ever: body's nerves; and if I am any prophet, tho flapper's day is about over and the modest violet is about to have her turn. i been considered | d no hostess in So far as refusing to drink is concerned, it has alwa; the right and proper thing for a girl to refuse to drink, the world would be offended at her turning down her glass. A young girl's high spirits need no artificlal stimulant. The ecxcitement of any pleasure brings a flush to her cheek and a sparkle to her eyes. and sets her tongue wagging without liquor. Therefore, even in the pre-Volstead days, nice girls were not permitted to drink. Now bootlegger liquor opens the gates of per- dition to them, and the girl who drinks runs the greatest possible danger in every way. Don’t be afraid that people will criticize you for not drinking. They honor and respect you for it. DOROTHY DIX. (Copyright, 1024.) Ring Found After 50 Years. Fifty years ago Mrs. J. A. Dotter visited a home in Sullivan, 3o. Re- cently C. C.

In making bibs for my small baby, T cut a plece of absorbent cotton the shape of a bib and cover both sides with gauze. 1 then quilt it on the machine in squares or diam6nds and bind the edges with tape, allowing a few inches to extend over each side of the neck for tying. This makes an ideal bib for the baby, as it is more easily laundered and absorbs the moisture much more. satisfactorlly than the ordinary bib. BAKING POWDER D.
