WOMAN'S PAGE Ensembles for All Hours of the Day BY MARY MARSHALL. Tt s pussing strange that such Words as “lingerie” and “ensemble”— Fo amazingly difficult for most Amer- fean and English folk to rorrectly or even easily have been se £a words as repe de chine,” while as truly French, present no such tongue-twisting difficulties for the woman who has been brought up to An exclusive use of the English lan- guake.

My goodness, if I weren’t so sleepy 1 could work faster! Good-bye, Peter. I'll see you in the Spring.” When Old Mr. Toad said this only his nose was sticking out of the sround. Hardly had Peter said good- bye when Old Mr. Toad’s nose disap- | peared and the earth fell in and cov ered him up. Peter simply sat there and stared at the place where Old Mr. | Toad had been and where now there | was nothing to be seen but a little | loose earth. Somewhere under it was | Old Mr. Toad and he was still going down. He was still digging a hole and backing into it as he dug. It was hard work for Peter to believe that Old Mr. | Toad was down there and still harder to belleve that he would stay down there until Spring. But 1t w: Peter knew that it w “Won't it be funn to come over and sit down here next Winter and think that he doesn't Delicious Sandwiches. Sandwiches are often more appreci- ated if a small quantity of pickle or sauce is spread over the meat, or if the egg contents are molstened with mayonnaise dressing. A novel ham sandwich filling {s made by putting some cold ham, 2 few pickles, and machine and mixing all well together. An unusual roast beef sandwich has a filling of one part of onion to four parts of roast beef, with a little horse- radish added, and put through the mincing machine. A lamb and mint sandwich is made as follows: Mix together one-half a cupful of finely chopped cooked lamb, and add one teaspoonful of minced fresh mint, one and one-half table- spoonsfuls each of cooked green peas and diced celery, and sufficient mayon- naise dressing to bind the ingredients. Use this as a filling between dinner rolls that have been split open and buttered.

One of the most difficult things in the world to learn is the art of say- ing good-bye gracefully. Don't you know that awful girl who rises to leave a gathering, saying rather flusteredly: “Well I'm afraid I'll have to go now. I've had such a nice time at vour tea.” Then she sidles toward the door and you ac- company her, and she suddenly thinks of something else to say. She stands there chattering, remem- bering more and more things you have to tell here while you hang on to the door for support, wishing she'd get it all over with and leave you free to go back to your other guests. When she finally goes she has defl- nitely left a bud impression with you. going away for some time, friends rush down to see you off on the train. They dush up to where you are leaning out of the window and they shriek enthusiastic messages of fare- well for about & minutes, then, as it dawns on them that the train has no intention of leaving the good old station for another half-hour, their enthusiasr subsides, and they shift from one foot to the other, trying to think of amusing conversation to last until you start. By the time vou do start you're so tired of these people you once called friends that you wish they'd never come down to see you off at all. Also there is usually a lot of em sment about saying good-bye to who has taken vou out and ou a good time all evening. | of hesitate on the doorstep, sayimg: “"Vell, good-bye. Thank you for a _very nice time.” And after he has sald good-bye firmly, vou still linger, wondering whether you should say something to him about his coming to see you again. He's fussed then, walting for you to disappear into the house, o that he can dash home and get some much needed sleep. After several faltering comments and much desultory conversation, you say good-bye again lamely and back awkwardly into the house. And he thinks privately that you might have managed that scene a great deal better. The best way to avoid all these an- noying little scenes is to make it a good-bye and stick to fit. If you're seeing a friend off at a station, say bood-bye to him or her, and then leave, no matter whether the traln shows a disposition to do 50_or not. I vou're at a tea, bidding vour hostess farewell, don't linger for a chat after vou've uttered the final good-bye. Just march off and leave it at that. And when you've made your pretty speech to the escort of the evening, don’t keep him hanging around wish- ing you'd go in, while you giggle over the happenings of the evening.

Tomorrow’s planetary aspects are rather adverse during the early hours ot the morning, but become more set- tled shortly after noen, and, from then on, display a steady improvement. It you have in centemplation any step that may serfously affect your life or your career, it would be well to devote the morning to a careful survey of the “pros and cons.” If, a result of such cogitation, your fixed resolve is still to go ahead, you can do 5o in the afternoon. All the slgns point then to undoubted succ In all probability, the emotions will be strongly stirred during the evening hours, and it is a good occasion for love’s revelation, as any engagement made promises happiness for the en- gaged couple.
