THE RING IS OF METAL AND IVORY. hrge colorful ring, you may be quite sure that the same thing is occurring and has already occurred to other women. The very fact that yom Ivel ready for the return of a certain fash- ion ‘shows that the stage is set for the return of precisely that fashion. . Fashionably speaking, rings -haven't bem especially important lately, Chok- necklaces, bracelets and earrings !uvebeeniqpenaeflu nwnm\ndzt-he necessary touch of jewelry, and there have been all sorts of ornaments for hats and frocks besides. But rings have mudredly r-om: :r;lm their own again, and many of them are very striking. The ring shown in the sketch is of metal and ivory, cleverly con- trived to accentuate the graceful curv- ing of the finger. The necklace above bears the unmistakable impress of the house of Lanvin, and the bracglet is of wood, gilt and metal. ‘There is & new way for working out color harmonies between frocks and col- ored gems. It is rather simple when you know how it is done. Consider your frock in terms of primary colors or combinations of primary colors and then choose a gem stone of the color or colors left out in the frock. Thus a frock of violet, composed of red and blue, would best set off the beauties .{ Kel]nw topaz. Emeralds, consisting of fue and yellow mixed into green, call for a background of some of the red shades. Sapphires of pure blue call for a background of orange containing red and yellow. Following this rule, gems should al ways be worn on_contrasting back- grounds or on an off-white background that is tinged with just a suspicion of the contrasting shade. Thus for eve- nlxs)f rubies look best on off-white of lghtly greenish tone, and amethysts on a soft maize. ‘This week'’s help for the home dress- maker ‘gives practichl suggestions for working, with fur. ‘You may have bits of far on hand or an old fur garment with parts still in good conditipn that you might use for trimming on a new frock of wrap. The sketch accompany- ing the circular shows how the fur may be sewn in the right way.

Part of your husband's business suc- cess depends upon the men he meets and forms friendships and acquaint- anceships with. In forming these bene- ficial relationships he ' must spend money. If you begrudge the money needed, it is almost akin to slamming the door that leads to the chamber of opportunity. * Every time your husband takes a cus- tomer to lunch or entertains a buyer at the golf club or has a couple to the house for dinner, he is investing in his future. Each moment spent in personal con- tact in an informal manner may mean an additional outlet for your husband's wares and a new door swung open to him. Wives unfamiliar with business and its customs may be prone to look upon this as simply indulgence. “Why can’t John conduet his business with these men without spoiling my week end of golf or staying downtown to dinner or buying innumerable lunches?” The fact is that the business man must adapt himself to conditions and he can sometimes get a man out to lunch when he can’t reach his desk to broach a business proposition. Extra pocket money for this sort of nse is simply part of a man’s “oper- a expense.” He must be able to meet socially men with whom he does business. More than women may real- ize, a man’s business success is founded on the personal impression he makes. He must appear successful, in funds, and not penurious or just “gemng along.” There is a saying to the effect that nothing succeeds like success. This is true, and a man who appears {0 be 4 NCC?B soon has others sharing in the | We do not recommend lny lavish There’s of Straight Talks to Women About Money BY MARY ELIZABETH ALLEN. l outlay of funds to make the right im- pression and the necessary tontacts for & man. This sort of thin[: is perhaps worse than being “close” on unsociable. No man must appear to b® trying to buy favor or friendship :nor to be patronizing. A far-seeing woman wlth'm under- standing of her husband's problems will not stint him in the funds recessary to promote himself. Rather will she try to guide him to the proper contacts and encourage to cement relations which will prove profitable.- She will not be penny wise and pound rue-ish.

For family of four or five, take one quart warm water, one cup wheat flour, one heaping tea- spoon $alt, one gill yeast (or one-~ half yeast cake). Stir in buck- ‘wheat flour enough to make thin batter. Let rise over night. In morning add one-fourth- tea- spoon saleratus or soda dissolved in lttle warm milk. Do this whether cakes are sour or not. Buckwheat cakes cannot be made n per{ectlon without this addi- tion. But it should never be put in until just before they are baked.

Cut the peeled in ves and with a sharp, point knife remove the core. The heat Ene trates the meat of the pear sufficiently to cause the hard part of the core to pull out easily and smoothly. As fast a8 prepared, drop the halves in cold water to prevent turning dark, then preserve or can in the usudl way. This method does away entirely with the aflcky slippery work of peeling pears, saves half the time usually required, and the finished product is more plen- t of the smooth, even ap- Ance of preserved fruit. ‘'FEATURES. D’IfiT AND HEALTH BY LULU HUNT PETERS, M. D. Disordered Heart Valves. Mrs. L. wants to know if I will write something on the “purring” heart—the cause, chances of recovery, ete. When the heart beats—contracts and relaxes—there is a characteristic sound which is described as lubdub. If for some reason the valves do not fit to- gether, some of the blood flows back, making another sound, which s most frequently called in medical terms a murmur. The layman frequently terms it & “purr.” The heart valves may be disordered from several reasons, among them in- flammations from infectious germs or their poisons, deposited on them during a general Infectious disease, or acquired from some local infections, such as tonsils, running ears, carious teeth, etc. (Infected tonsils are the most frequent offenders.) They may also be put out of alignment through inflammation in the heart, causing it to swell so they won't meet. ‘The prognosis (outcome) of valvular disease depends upon the degree of the injury to the valves and the ability of the heart to carry on even though they are disabled. There are some murmurs that ap- parently mean no disablement or no shortening of life at all, the heart run- ning along just as merrily with them as without them. For instance, there is a heart murmur that is frequently heard in childhood and during adolescence which apparently is of .no significance. And some murmurs in-adults glso. I have told you this story ef Osler before, but I'll repeat it. Osler was a very famous physician who died com- paratively recently. He tells of warning a young woman who had a decided murmur that it would be wise for her to not marry and bear children. Twenty years or so later he was examining a woman and, in the course of exdmina- tion, he commented on the fact that she had a murmur. “Yes” she said, “isn’t that the same murmur I had 20 years ago, when you advised me not to marry and have children? You will bé interested to know that-I did marry, and have six children.” Osler used to tell this to his medical students so that they would not be too severe in their proznosls of certain heart murmurs. Of course, your doctor is the one to tell you if your heart condition is such that it is necessary to cut down phys- fcal activities or if 1t is necessary to take medication. The - degenerative . diseases ' of the heart—not especially the . valvular disease with the murmur, but the de- generative type, in which the heart muscles themselves are affected—and the degenerative diseases. of the blood vessels.and kidneys are very much on the increase. These diseases are very much more prevalent amohg those over- weight. You can think of the reasons. ‘We have an article on reducing and gnlmnz weight which can be obtained )y following column rules.

Brown the sandwiches in butter directly over the flame, toast them in an oven or on an electric grill. Place on plates and when ready to serve pour tomato sauce around each serving. ‘With dried beef: Heat the beef until the edges curl, in a skillet in melted butter. Cut the bread rather thin and toast it on one side. Butter the un- toasted side and add the dried beef, Press the slices together and serve at once.
