WOMAN’S PAGE. Blouses in New Velvet Ensembles BY MARY ‘The separate blouse is trying ver: bard to retain a role on the stage of fashion, and so far it seems to have succeeded.

Sometimes, of course, & | blouse is part of a jumper frock, some- times it is part of a three-piece en- semble, and sometimes it is just & blouse. A very few years ago the feeling prevailed that a separate blouse was most appropriate for morning wear and sport wear generally, but that it wouldn't do at all for afterncon—and, of course, not for evening. Now. how- ever, a good many women cling te- naciously to the one-piece frock for morning and sport, but consent to the blouse or cassequin idea for afternoon. And there actually have been evening frocks consisting of slip and over- blouse. a*ihe. collections of new French clothes there are numerous afternoon blouses. One of the French dressmak- ers showed a white cassequin heavily embellished with rhinestones to g0 Wwith a black velvet suit. The old prejudice against blouse of different color from the skirt seems to be pass- ing. Sometimes the cassequin or casaque is of silver or gold lace—long- sieeved and sometimes high-necked— and giving the appearance somewhat of a coat of fine chain armor. Drecoll of Parls plays a_new tune when he offers long-sleeved blouses en- tirely of suede, which are worn over skirts of pleated kash: Long-sleeved, high-necked blouses of satin have a rather medieval appear- ance. The sketch shows an interest- ing model of this sort, made of copper- colored satin with green and metal em- broidery, giving the effect of chain and pendant. (Copyright. 1925.) My Neighbor Says: When cutting cake which is iced, put your knife in boiling water for a few seconds. You will then be able to cut without the icing breaking. Brooms will last twice the usual time if treated in the fol- lowing manner: Dip in soap- suds to toughen the fiber, then rinse well and shake ail the water out and hang up to dry. This treatment should be re- peated about every week or ten days. it is quite easy to make household ammonia at_home in the following way: Mix one ounce of rock ammonia with half a gallon of cold water. When this is dissolved the ad- dition of a little vellow soap will make it quite cloudy. Linseed ofl is excellent for cleaning varnished _grained paint. It should be applied with a plece of clean soft flannel, rubbed well in and polished with a soft duster. And only the very tiniest drop of oil should be used.

The Golden Sandals. Jason wore a handsome leopard's skin which Chiron had given him. But the part of his costume of which he was proudest was a pair of sandals which had been his father’s. They were of pure gold thread and hand- somely designed for the feet of a king. In this costume Jason looked so strong and handsome that every one whom he passed stopped to admire and won- der, Now Jason had traveled for some time when he came to a turbulent river which ran directly across his path. The river was so badly swollen by heavy rains and it looked so wild and dangerous that Jason, bold as he was, paused upon the bank wondering if it were safe to venture in. Color the leopard's skin tan dark brown spots. The sandals and the headdress should be golden. (Copyrixht. with Apples and Rice. Wash six ounces of rice, then put it into boiling water with a little salt, and boil fast for 15 minutes. Strain off the water and well cover the rice with milk; stand it on a very low heat to cook gently until all the milk is absorbed; be very careful it does not burn. Pare five or six medium-sized cook- ing apples and remove the cores—but leave the apples whole. Put a little raspberry jam into the center of each. Place these in a large pudding dish, and when the rice is well swollen, | pleasure out THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. ©. Libra. Tomorrow's planetary aspects, al- though favorable, do not indicate any marked degree of success for either professional or business ventures. They do, however, denote that the bet- ter emotions will be stimulated. Hatred will be forgotten, worry will be dismissed and things that hitherto looked daerk and foreboding, will, un- der the prevailing influences, bear quite another appearance. The signs reveal that optimism will replace doubt or despair, especially in those all-important matters that affect your life and its hap\iess. If you have differences with your mate remember that we cannot all think allke. If yvou are ‘' outs” with your sweetheart remember that love should rise su- perior to all jarring trifles. Children horn tomorrow will, with careful nutrition and good environ- ment, enjoy excellent health during the infantile period, and there is noth- ing except lack of proper attention or their own foolhardiness to prevent their attaining a robust majority. Temperamentally they will be rather moody. and, although lacking quick- ness of intellect, they will, by plod- ding, acquire a great fund of valuable information. They may disappoint a schoolmaster. Like many of those that have become great they will never advertise well any school. Later on in lite they will prove that what they devoured of learning they digested and assimilated properly. 1 tomorrow is your birthday you are reticent and excessively cautious. You never yield to an impulse, nor give way to any emotion. You are self-contained and self-contented. As a natural result you get very little real of life, and give very little of {t to othe who, in the vernacular, consider you “hard boiled.”" Owing to vour conservatism and your watchful vigilance of your own interests you have probably achieved a moderate success. You could have done more if vour thoughts and ac tions had been more liberal, and if you had not endeavored, at so much effort, to suppress natural emotions. You are very persistent, but often miss a good opportunity by discussing for too long a time in your mind the “pros” and ons.” Impetuosity and too much eagerness to take a chance cannot be too severely critici the other hand, it may be better to have tried and never to have tried at all.” ‘Well known persons born this date | are: James Lawrence, naval officer Rufus Choate, lawyer; Kate Field, ac tress, author and journalist; Lewis, comedian.

Ibismry of Pour Name: BY PHILIP FRANCIS NOWLAN. GURNEY. RACIAL ORIGIN—French. SOURCE—A locality. Here is a family name whose origin you would probably have to wander over the map of Europe to find if you did not first hunt for clues among the historical records of me- dieval England or France. And at that you would be likely to miss it on account of the difference in spelling, even though the pronun- ciation of today is not so very far from that of the French in the Mid- dle Ages. It is one of those family names which were originally descriptive of the locality or community from which the first bearers came, and also one of those which were brought into Eng- land first by the Normans. The locality In question is that of Gournal, in Normandy. The Normans, by their very pres- ence in England, contributed largely to the rise of the family name. The invading army, made up of soldiers gathered from many localities, and, many of them bearing the same given name, cutting their old ties behind them, and setting helter-skelter in a new country, found frequent use for surnames which would _distinguish one Geoffrey from another or one John from another. And in the ma- jority of cases it was customary among them to refer to the place from which a man had come, where- as within the Anglo-Saxon community the tendency would have been to refer to some physical peculiarity or to a man’s parentage.

He was FEATU BY WILLIAM Jollied Himself Along. He had an excellent family history and generally the best of health. lle had a good practice. But of late he was troubled considerably by dyspep. sia, for which, being a lawyer and therefore competent to treat himself- though he wouldn't defend himself if he were sued for conspiracy—he tried one remedy after another and sam- pled various impressive styles of treat ment. In fact, he did about every- thing but consult a doctor. He was 48 years of age, and had lost flesh and had grown rather pale the last few months. Then, too, there were frequ headaches, come to think of it. Yes, he was kind of short winded recently—now that he was re- minded of it. Also his eyesight wasn't #0 good as formerly, and glasses fitted by the jeweler hadn’t improved it. The heart sounds were louder than normal. The apex of the heart was lower and farther to the left than normal. The snap of the closing aortic valve was altogether 100 &nappy. Then, round behind, there were fine rales or cracking sounds heard when the lawyer breathed—of course, he had | his shirt off by this time, not just pulled open at the neck, movie fash- ion.
