WOMAN’S PAGE,” Doing Their Own Assembling BY MARY MARSHALL. Some women like to buy their en- gembles ready devised—while others like to assemble their own ensembles. There are certain advantages to either ar- rangement. If you go to & very goor NECK SCARF, HAT SCARF, NAR- ROW BELT AND BAG ALL MADE OF PRINTED SILK GIVE THE EN- | SEMBLE NOTE TO A FROCK OF NATURAL-TONED SILK. dressmaker and have plenty to spend, then the ensemble that she will devise her judgment—based on wide experi- ence—is better than your own. But if you cannot afford such expert ad- vice, or happen to have exceptionally good judgment and taste in matters of dress, then you had better do the assembling yourself. I have been told recently that one reason why separate coats and jackets had been in such great demand this season, in spite of the importance at- dached to ensembles, was not that Amer- ican women had gone back on this idea, but that they had come to prefer doing their own assembling. . One way to proceed is to buy a coa or a hat or a frock and then to go ahead and get the other necessary parts to match or in harmony. Another way is to select coat or wrap, frock and hat in neutral tone and then knit up the parts of the costume by a number of matching accessories. And for these assembling sets there Is much demand. One well dressed woman I know has ordered a number of simply made frocks of natural-col- ored pongee which she intends to vary by means of a number of scarf, belt and bag sets of gaily printed silk. Some of the sets include two scaxfs, one for the neck and one for for the hat, a belt and a bag. There are sets that include shoes—the shoes being covered, at least in part, with the printed silk. For warm-weather wear there are scarf- pamsgl sets—sometimes with belts to match, For the youngest member of the fam- ily we have prepared this week’s circu- lar. it provides a diagram pattern for a little gown and a shirt or tiny jacket and from these two patterns you can make all the little garments that baby will need for his Spring ward- robe—aside from outside wraps and caps.

KEEPING MENTALLY FIT BY JOSEPH JASTROW. Morning Sickness. Will you kindly explain why, after a good night's rest and without having dissipated into the wee hours, I wake up feeling like a sick cat? And my sister, who was out with me at the party, wakes up chirping like the proverbial early bird and calls into my room in the most irritatingly angelic tones to inquire whether I'm not feeling well. and do I know it is quarter to 8% A The oniy reason I don't heave my slippers at her s because it is too much effort. But by noon I am fairly polite and opumistic, and I know so many who are in the same boat. How do you get that way, and suill more portant, how do you get out of it? BROWN TASTE. ‘The simplest answer to this question is-that we don’t know; or, more simply, I don’t know. We can make & guelaul,‘ o’: it. Certainly mcmmommc eel very, very common in persons otherwise verYl m? even robust. Chil- dren don’t have it, not often, nor many them, h don't all wake certainly is a sign of Ao on ing up unrefres! an ulun . Wué'nu?m = of a nervous 3 an even more definite one; for we can place it in the n_of neurasthenia. Neurasthenics, th few exceptions, feel ‘worst the morning, even when the; are fairly well, and when they're no the morning is a spec 1l, as agan their temper- particular he! ament denotes. They always feel best at evening, at times so well that they hope to escape that morning slump— but they rarely do. £.» psychologist who is vigorous, of fine physique and who bears strains well confesses that at times he awakes guiw inert and depressed, but that a rm, 5-minute determination to get up and go through his exercises is enough to dissipate this feeling. That is a mild, a miniature example of it. The more definitely neurasthenic have a longer struggle to get over the bar be- tween sleep and normai wakefulness; but resolution may help; so may a cup of black coffee; so may a resignation to suffer for an hour and await the pass- | ing of the clouds. The guess, then, is this: That. the transition from sleep to wakefulness is difficult for the neurasthenically dis- posed; they sleep and they awake on a pattern deviating from the normal. It may be partly in the circulation, partly in-the accumulation of secretions, part- ly in the mysterious regulation of brain states that gives some persons a tend- ency to trance of somnambulism or de- Jirlum. What is' strikil about the morning feeling is that it is so common and so commonly associated with a con- siderable group of “nervous” signs. The morning doesn’t last, nor does the feel- ing. But misery until 10 a.m. isn't & pleasant companion. (Copyright, 1929 Ham Molds.

From the cities, the villages and the hamlets they come by the thoygands, attracted here by the many jobs to be had with the Government. But there is one striking thing about this cosmopolitan population.

Senators HEp and Government fy clerks are brothers under the skin when they meet in Washington ~ and remind each other of how great it is to be a Georgian, a Virginian or a Pennsylvanian. ‘We were lm‘prmed, for example, by the thought of just how great it must be to be a Georgian after attending a meeting of the natives of this State the other evening. Dr. Malcolm H. Dewey had brought his aggregation of college songhirds of Emory oUniversity all the way from Atlanta to sing Negro spirituals and Sourthetn melodies to some 1,500 or 2,000 natives of\ Georgia. who now are in Washington, And was it a Georgla evening? Why, the ballroom of the hotel 4n which the meeting was held was just as much a part of Georgia as if it had been in the hegrt of Georgia's capital. And when the boys concluded their program with the singing of “Dixie,” the applause must have penetrated even to the Vice President-elect’s apartment on one of the top floors of the hotel. Senator and Mrs. W. J. Harris were seated in & box well up to the front. Senator and Mrs. Walter F. George also occupled & box with a party of friends. Every Representative and his wife from the Cracker State was present. We picked out’in the crowd the faces of Representative and Mrs. Thomas M. Bell, Representative W. W. Larsen, Representative and Mrs. K. E. Cox, Representative and Mrs. M. C. Tarver and Representative and Mrs. Leslie Steel, All occupled boxes and were sur- rounded by Georgia friends. Unless our memory fails it was the request from Senator George's box that prompted the singing of the most popular of all Negro spirituals, “Swing \w, Sweet Chariot.” asions like this are typical of sim- flar ones staged by the numerous other State societies.

Ford has ! been back several times, ! “And, oh, yes,” he reminds, “I have more than made up that $5 he made me come down on the first transaction.” ‘The collector has a framed piece of handwriting, purporting to be that of Abraham Lincoln, but which he says ruefully is not worth the paper it is written on. “One of the cleverest pleces of forgery I ever have seen, and it cost me plenty,” he said. “I was certainly taken in on that one. “It is the one thing we collectors must watch with the greatest care— these forged docu- ments. Stamps and coins also are faked frequently. Even now I have a suit in the courts to recover a large sum of money that I lost by buying a collection of bogus stamps.” s e ey Veal Savory.
