They should make an effective foil for filmy dresses. Nancy had two wraps which she adored. The first one was made of trans- parent velvet, so sheer and fine that it would almost go through a wedding ring. Her wrap was of sapphire blue. It was lined with flesh colored geor- gette. A big, soft bow at one side of the collar and rows of shirring at the bend of the arm at the inner part of the sleeve were the only trimming. Shawls of various sorts still retained their popularity. But the embroidered shawl from Italy, the silken shawl from Spain were much more usual than the rectangle of black chiffon velvet. This pet shawl of Nancy’s had its inspiration from an imported one. Long, heavy black fringe knotted into the edge of the shawl gave it grace and beauty. Worn with a filmy, flowered chiffon dress Nancy felt like a princess in disguise. It gave an air of distinction to any evening frock. (Copyright. 1927.) Bluebird's queer | 3" the little people | K s | what BY THORNTON W. BURGESS enough for us birds.

Desks do not wear out and they represent a substantial enough investment so that they are not changed with every whim of fashion. The Queen Anne lowboy desk is one which we would recommend as being a really worthwhile purchase. It is not too large to fit into the small house or apartment, yet it has dignity and weight enough to harmonize with the larger home, into which it may be moved later. Also it can be used for a bedroom desk when the living room has outgrown it completely. This desk can be purchased in either mahogany or maple for about $100, which is enough to insure good work- manship and flne woods. And one need never apologize for it, because it is a real furniture thoroughbred.

It isn't only the fiyer like Charley Lindbergh or Dickey Byrd, who hops off in his airship to make the flight to Europe, the North Fole or Asia For the girl who hops off into the street, down to the office, or out to the dance has to have almost as much nerve and an equally good pair of wings, so to speak. In days gone by, the fair creature did her littls hoppin the role and costume of the debutante She was introduced to society in the form of a little compary who knew her and didn't try to get her phone number. It's mighty different now, when a girl has to have a short take-off in the form of such education as she has been able to grab and such expericnce as she has been able to put together, These two usually amount to about as much as the quantity of clothing she wears—just enough education and experience’ and clothes to cover the subject. Just to live ani move about these days is a genuine hopoff for a girl who has to go “hout on her own. So really, a fellow like Lindy, who flew up in the air, was in less danger t! is the girl who no idea where she's soing or how she's going to land. It isn't only life, but the act of making a living, which means a job and a boss. A girl goes along, some- how, but the act of looking for a job and then accepting a position, if I may express it that way, is some hop- off, believe me. The boss may be all right and we'll assume that he is, and then you soon become an old story with him. But just the same to get and hold a job with a man attacned to it is to take a flight into the air, Of course, it’s the same with matri- mony, which still pravalls when pirls are self-supporting. Probably that's the big hop, and unless you're more in favor of divorce than I am, you're go- ing to be in the air a long time. Wor it's some flight over the sea of matri- mony, up there with only the cool moon to glve you advice and assist: ance. Human nature doesn’t chanzs much, and women still less, but the world around us have seen changes that have made the angels sit up and take notice of what's going on down here. The whole world seems ‘o0 be taking off tor a flight to some ,lace or other. We're all pretty much in the a'r. Some girls get giddy and go wrong, but I am happy to think that most of ’em keep their heads when they are through the air of the modern world. If a girl has sense she won't lose her head after her hop-off, and if she’s wise, she’ll keep her eyes on the ground for a znm] place to jand. Here's hoping you won't get hurt in the rose ive or loop the toop. (Covyright. 1927.)

T is the first digestive fluid which the food encounters in its jour- ney through the body. The mere eat- ing makes the saliva flow from a great number of very tiny glands which ar set in the membrane lining the mouth. There are three pairs of large glands which also send out saliva. It has been established that the taking of food into the mouth is only one way in which the flow of the salvia is in- creased. When one is very hungry the sight of appetizing food will often cause the salvia to flow, as will also certain emotional conditions, such as pleasurable excitement. The digestion begins as soon as the food is mixed with the sallva.

It. is rarely, if ever, advisable to generalize in answering any question of diet, and this is a typical one. While certain individuals may find that they feel better for eating only a few times a day, with long intervals between, this is not a good rule for the average person. The body uses itselt up at a rather rapid rate, even when the indlvidual follows a seden- tary occupation. There is an inevita- ble exhaustion of tissue between meals. While adults do not face th: as do children, of making up for growth at the same time, even grown-ups should have a reserve of strength upon which to draw.
