WOMAN'S PAGE, Attractive Slip-on Pillow Covers BY LYDIA LE BARON WALKER. - ‘The buttons or fastenings of the whers they will ha concealed. Pillow covers that transform ordinary feather plllows used on beds into attractive cushions for couches and chairs are intriguing. They as- sume a place of especial fmportance in the furnishing of collego und those in which girls must make do doubls duty for sleeping cb and Iving rooms. Many young men when they enter business must accommodate themselves siich circumstances, And to number must be added those live in one-room apartments. When the i"all comes, therefore, and the Vica- tion perfod is over this little problem of hating the right sort of pillow covers has to be solved Ly a very large group of women. The subfect {s not without interest to all homemakers who find they do mnot have enongh sofa cushions and who hesitate to spend more money to get the kind they want. rooms ibers wo- lite to this p-on Covers. The ona necessary thing thess =ofa pillow covers is that they must_have one end open. so that the transforming of them night and day from one use to the other is simple. 1f the cover is made a trifle longer than needed, and has each of the ends hemmed and snaps sewed to them, these fastenings will conceal the opening. There should he length enough on the side that comes under the flap to hide all traces of the tick- ing pillowease. Buttons and button holes are liked hest by some home. makers for such fastenings, ‘but to most of us this involves more work than seems necessary. Take Off White Cases. T.et me suggest that it is wise to remove the white case from the pil- lJows before slipping them into the daytime covers In this way the freshness of the white not spoiled, and the case et who | about | l il { i covers should come on the back edge wrinkled, nor does dust get on it as might happen otherwise. Various Cushions. The room for the college girl can be treated as a boudoir and the entire bed be given a dainty touch. A chintz cover for the mattress with a similar cover for the head and foot board if these should he concealed, together with some slip-on covers in the same materfal for the pillows, is all that is necessary. But if the room Is for u business girl, where more of a living | roum effect should be given the place, | then the covers for *couch and cush- ions should be more dignified. They | need cost no more, but they must be of a different character. Denim or | some close woven, plain fabric with sufficient body not to crease and wrinkle easily is good for the couch. The cushions may be of the same ma- terfal or be more decorative without becoming dainty, which idea should be avoided. For Handsome Cushions. 1t the one-room apartment is heing furnished, ‘then the cover and the cushions should he as.handsome as the purse can afford. There are dam- |asks and brocades that are exquisite, and there are velvets and velours that are artistic in color and eminently suitable. And from these down to the denims there is a vast assortment of fabrics that can appropriately be used. Arrangement of Cushions. The arrangement of the pillows is essential. No longer is it right to have | them assembled in piles. They must be arranged with simplicity and pre- cision. They may stand stiff and straight against the wall. Three Jarge ones or four or five smaller cushions may be used, three being the most pleasing. Or there may be merely two end pillows in bolster shape. These are excellent when there are ends to the simulated day-bed. AND BE HEALTHY DinahiDoy's Waily Talks on st The Right Food Ts Is Diet Horrid?

You wouldn't ask a doctor to instruct you about ten- nie. And you wouldn't ask a tennis star whether filet mignon was a fish. Anyway, this social mentor answered the letter. She acknowledged that exercise was unnecessary for 8 mother of four children (eldest five) who did | all her own work.

Mrs. T. Y. B. writes: “What can 1 do to help my 6-vearold boy over- come the habit of stuttering? He has only hegun to do this recently, and though I make him stop when he starts to stammer and start all over again, there are times when he can hardly talk. He has difficulty with are times when he seems to stutter over almost any word. What would you advise me to do? ‘Answer—The principle in helping a child to overcome the habit of stutter- ing lies In trying to discover how the habit began. If a hoy hasn't stuttered until just recently there must be some cause for it just now which dldn’t exist previous to this time. Is he, right now, up to normal welght? Is he up to his grade in "school and does he look forward to school with pleasure? Are you by any chance forcing him to use his right hand when it seems more nat- ural for him to use his left one? This is sometimes the cause of stammering. he had any fright or nerve- ng experience lately? It some- s happens that older children frighten small boys by threatening them with punishments, and so every- thing which reminds the small boy of his tormentors, even the letters of their names, affects him so that he stutters and stammers when he tries to say these letters. Perhaps the child has been frightened by some animal. There is always some nerv- ous origin when stammering begins out of a clear sky, as it were, and the mother should try to find what caused it and remove the cause of the fright, whether it be playmates or animals. There is one other thing which may cause persistent stammering and that is when the small victim is doing it in unconsclous imitation of someone else. It is easy enough to imitate a stammerer, and at first it is great fun. Then the imitator finds himself stuttering over words, and soon, be- cause it attracts so much attention and causes worry, he continues to do it untll the hahit becomes so fixed that it is a real task to break himself of it. The mother needs to have sympathy and understanding and if she feels that the child is imitating some one the best method is entirely to ignore the stuttering, so that it will die from malnutrition. It is so easy for habits to flourish in the limelight, and die qulckly from inattention.

LOUISVILLE ‘Will you be kind enough to explain | the origin of Christian belief in the resurrection of the body? This belief passed over into early Christian doctrine from pre-existent wish sources. But there were also early Christians who regarded the hody as e Iy evil, and to these the idea of its restoration was intoler- able. Al alike believed in the persist- enca of the soul heyond death. St. Paul's eplendid expression of this Christian doctrine is found in the 15th chapter of his first letter to-the church at Corinth. The apostle there shows (1) that Christ’s triumph over death is the assurance of the believ- er's triumph, (2) that the body laid aside in the tomb is laid aside forever, (3) that the soul receives a spiritual- ized and glorifled body in unmistak- able continuity with the body of earth, and (4) that therefore we may antici- pate the life to come as equipped with whatever is necessary for perfect and atisfying fellowship with each other and with our Lord.

NEW YORK, September 13, 1776.— Long Island has now become the en- emy’s country in every sense of the word. The Tories are making it their own. Not only have they taken full possession of the ground since the Americans withdrew their Army from Brooklyn on August 29, but they have made it a recruiting station for the British army. Few of the Tories have ever shown any real eagerness to fight for their wicked cause, but one of them always has, and now he has his chance. This is Gen. Oliver De Lancey, and he is now advertising that he has been au- thorized to raise a brigade of Ameri- cans for the service of the King. He promises that any person of good character who will organize a com- pany of 70 men shall have a com- mission, and these captains and their men be paid like other soldlers of the ng. He offers other indusements besides pay to those who will desert their country's cause. The chief of these Is freedom from robbery by the Brit- Ish and Hessian troops. Gen. De Lan- cey announces that he has_orders from “his excellency the Hon. Willlam Howe, general and commander-in- chief of all his majesty’s forces in North America from Nova Scotia to the Floridas.” and with that impres- sive introduction of himself he makes known his willingness to “accept of the submissions of the inhabisants.” He promises the people that upon lay- ing down their arms, taking the oath of allegiance to Great Britain. totally refusing obedience to Congress, obey- ing the legal authority of the King's officers, and promising to pray for tha King and the royal family in all places of worship, they will he permit- ted to call their possessions their own. One thing that will happen to those who refuse to adopt this program is suggeated in a proclamation which Gen. De Lancey issued two days ago. wherein he says that all the fat cattle and sheep in Suffolk County are to be driven to Jamaica, where the owners will receive certificates of weight and be paid for their animals; but persons who are “in actual rebellion"—mean ing those who will not subscribe to De Lancey’s conditlons—will see their sheep and cattle taken from them by force. Two signers of the Declaration of Independence have residences on Long Island. They are Gen. William Floyd of Mastic and Francis Lewis of White stone. Beyond doubt they will suffer the total loss of their estates. (Covyright. 1926.) SONNYSAYINGS BY FANNY Y. CORY Well, if anybody asked me, “Is they berry pi in the face?"

THE MILLION DOLLAR WIFE By HAZEL DEYO BATCHELOR. g “Did you think T was never moin % to come across with a ring?" Betty Ames nurses James Cor- nell through pnewmonia, and they fall in love. Dr. Amos Craig is in love with Betty and iz hurt when he hears the news, while Alice Grif- fith, a girl Jimmy has once been interested in, is more than sur- prised. Jim is the type of man who is always talking about what he will do 1when he makes his “million.” CHAPTER XII. Fine Feathers. In the days following Jimmy's re- turn, Betty hought some new clothes. Like most girls she was excited over the prospect of new things, but it was not until she started shopping that she realized it was not going to be easy to please Jimmy with her ap- pearance and keep within the con fines of her pockethook at the same time. She remembered only too clearly the effective simplicity of Mrs. Arrow- smith's appearance, the simple felt hat with its marcasite arrow, the buckled patent leather slippers. But when she tried on felt hats. they did not look as Mrs. Arrowsmith's head. They were stiff and did not follow the lines of her head. She wondered why all the smartest women were wearing felt hats when they were so cheap, and then she discovered that several of the Kifth avenue shops were selling imported English felts and the difference in price made the difference in looks. Fifteen, twenty and twenty-five dol- lars for a plain little hat with nothing on it but,a band of grossgrain ribbon and the ‘ornaments were extra! It was really too absurd! She bought one, however, because she wanted to look lovely in Jim's eves, and she also purchased a three- piece suit of navy blue and a new evening frock. The evening dress was a sucess, but in the street things, although she was quietly and appro- priately dressed, she did not have that look of smartness that she craved. Mrs. Arrowsmith's simplicity was challenging to the eve, her own was simplicity and nothing more. Of course if she had been able to consult an expert, she could have dis- covered a great deal about her per- sonality. As it was he did not know that although her suit was in good taste, the lines were not good for her figure. She simply knew that she didn't look as she wanted to, which made her unhappy because she wanted to dazzle Jim. The evening dress, however, was another matter X Its color was daffodil yellow and it was_embroidered heavily in crystal beads. It brought out all her vivid ness, the quality in her that had first | attracted Jim. It gave her a breath. | less, vital look almost as if she were ! poised for flight, and when she showed | it to Jim, his face lizhted up and he exclaimed delightedly: | Chat's the stuff. = With that shawl T bought you, you'll make every one =it up and take notice. By the way, I've asked the Arrowsmith's to dinner tomorrow night. You ecan wear it then."” A feeling of disappointment up in Betty. Tomorrow they planned to dress and make a gala evening of it. She had been looking forward to it for several days. but she had counted on being alone with Jimmy. She said nothing, but her gay mood of a moment before quieted down, and Jim said quickly “Arrowsmith is a good man to know and I thought it would be po itic to include them. Besides it wil do you good to know a woman like Mrs. Arrowsmith. She's up to the minute in everything and can give vou tips on how to dress. You her, don't you?" “T hardly know turned quietly “She's a good sort. I'd like to be nice to her.

Beauty Features Never Let Make-up Remain on your skin over night Do this if powder or rouge ever touches your face—note then the great difference that comes OUNTLESS women make the great mistake of permittmg make-up to remain on their faces over night. Poor complexions thus often come. Yet, used rightly, powders, rouge and make-up will not injure. The rule below is one, according to authorities, every woman who ever touches make-up to her face should follow. Authorities urge it. Most women of the stage (great users of cosmetics) employ it. All one needs to follow it is a 10c cake of Palmolive. Remove this way Powders, rouge and all cosmetics have a tendency to clog the pores . . often to enlarge them. Black- heads and disfigurements often fol- low. Never let make-up siay on over night. This is all-important, a fun- damental in correct skin care. Wash your face gently with Palmolive Soap, massaging it softly into the skin. Rinse thoroughly. Then repeat both washing and rins- ing. Apply a touch of cold cream— that is all. Follow this rule. Your skin will be soft and lovely. As the months roll by, you'll need fewer and fewer CASTLE Do not use ordinary soaps in the treatment above. Do not think any green soap or represented as of palm and olive oils, is the same as Palmolive. Ba sure you get the real Palmolive Remember that before Palmolive came, women were told, “use no soap on your faces.” Soaps then were judged too harsh. Palmolive is a beauty soap made for one pur- pose only; to safeguard your com- plexion. 60 years of soap study stand behind it. Millions of pretty skins prove its gentle safety beyond all doubt. And it costs but 10c the cake.—so little that millions let it do for their bodies what it does for their faces. Obtain Palmolive today. Note what an amazing difference one week makes.
