WOMA Bag Harmonizes N’S PAGE. With Ensemble BY MARY MARSHALL. If you choose a leather bag it should be of the same sort of leather as the shoes worn at, the same time. This is a rule that niany women follow, and it is usually a good one. If, you wear snakeskin shoes or shoes trimmed with BAG OF BROWN SUEDE HAS MIR- ROR ON OUTSIDE.

There are new bags of beige shoe calf that are at their best with shoes of the same leather. and possibly some looking apout. It is silly to snatch up any bag yBu see that appeals to you just because it seems to be a bargain, unless you take the bag as a starting point for an entire en- semble. If you must manage on a rather small dress allowance you probably feel that three bags are all that you can afford at a time, and in that case it is best to have three different sorts—one for street wear, one for afternoon in silk or embroidery and one for evening. For Autumn the street bag is best of leather and should, as I say, match the shoes. Whether it is black or brown or gray or beige will then depend on the sort of shoes you intend to wear with your Autumn street ensemble, and that will depend on the suit or coat you intend to_wear. For afternoon there are some very attractive silk bags—flat envelopes usu- ally. Then there are embroidered bags, usually of soft blended tones that will £0 with a variety of dresses. A charming little sleeveless apron or pinafore was taken for the model of this week’s circular—just the thing for little daughter to wear over her school dress during play time or to wear in- stead of & dress qn warm days.

CRAIG. August 16, 1861.—Cannonading was heard on the Potomac River below Washington early this morning. It seemed to be taking, place at or near Aquia_Creek, where the disupionists have batteries.- Rumors reached this city during the day from Fort Washington and Alex- andria that the firing was caused by an engagement between the Pawnee of the Potomac Flotilla and the disunion vessel George Page, but this is doubted hére, because at last reports the Page was lying up a creek, 4 miles from a bar that is impassable for the Pawnee. The Page also is heavily armed and has long been surrounded by a force of | about 2,000 secession troops. Before the smaller vessels of the Fed- eral flotilla could reach the Page with their guns the batteries at Aquia Creek would have to be demolished and the disunion troops driven away. Capt. William Budd of the Federal progeller gunboat Resolute sent in a re- port_today of an action yesterday on the Potomac in which three of his men were killed and one wounded. He went down the river to make an examination of Matthias Point and vicinity. Seeing a boat on the Virginia shore a short distance above Persimmon Point, he sent an officer and five men in a boat to capture her. They were in the act of making fast to her when a volley of musketry was fired from the bushes on the shore not more than five or six yards away, killing three men and wounding another. “I immediately opened fire,” reports Capt. Budd, “throwing a shell into the cover that sheltered the enemy. After four or fiye rounds they were driven out, running in parties of three or four in different directions, some of them run- ning out into dwelling houses on the right. The survivors of the boat's crew succeeded in getting her off the shore while I was firing. “The Reliance, coming up at this mo- ment, commenced throwing shells at the flying enemy and also sent a boat to assist in getting my boat off. Noth- ing was left behind. “My boat was completely riddled, par- ticularly in the after part. * * * Th men who escaped state that the boat on the shore had two casks in her, We were unable to secure her.” s S, [ Tholeeh. . | & — A man who holds a hefty job in some great seat of learning, advises youth to be a snob, old-fashioned virtues spurn- ing. He may have for that ugly word a meaning new and pleasant, but with disgust it’s always heard by all the gray-beards present. The snob's a crit- ter who admires the station much above him, who as a climber never tires—and so few people love him. He's no respect for sterling worth, which makes life good and sunny, but measures all things on the earth in sordid terms of money. He'll bend the knee to belted earls, cheap adulation showing, but has con- tempt for honest churls who keep the world’s wheels going. He always regu- lates himself, when mingling with the voters, according to their stack of pelf, their station and their motors. Old Noah Webster doesn't grant the word a better meaning; the snob’s a tinhorn sychopant, on beastly standards lean- ing. And so I feel my being throb with wrath when some professor advises youth to be & snob—he is & careless guesser. ‘The youth who follows that advice will have few friends to cheer him when he’'d put up his share of ice—he’ll find detractors near him. Old-fashioned modesty is best, the youth who has that merit is everywhere a welcome guest— may all the laddies share it. I'd say to Student, “Go and rob a hen roost if you care to, but never, never be a snob, I i trust you will not dare to. Go forth and labor to the end, some useful station filling: the snob will never have a friend who's worth a phoney shilling.” WALT MASON. (Copyright, 1929.) MOTHERS AND THEIR CHILDREN. Bath Mitts.

'hese mitts are made from Turkish oweling doubled and cut about three- fourths of an inch larger than the child's hand, with thumb properly extended. It only takes a few minutes to stitch these up on the machine and the chil- dren like them so much better than the square washcloths and get much better results when “washing up.” Stuffing for Chicken. ‘To make stuffing for a three-pound chicken, peel four potatoes and boil them, cut in the food chopper half a pound of salt pork, turn into & heavy frving pan and fry slowly. Put the giblets through the chopper and add them to the salt pork. Stir it until cooked, but do not take from the fire. Peel three onions and cut them in the chopper, adding them to the meat. Peel and core three apples and do the same as with the onions. When the potatoes are cooked, drain them, saving the water, mash them, and add them to the contents of the frying pan.

Credit for the discovery of this new allment is due Mr. I. F. B,, who, natur- ally desiring to inform the most repre- sentative audience, sagaciously contrib- uted his original report to this column. Mr. B. gave his disease no name in his original article. Of course, it is neces- sary that a new disease have & name. Indeed, that is important if the affic- tion is to attain popularity. Look how unpopular bad breath was until it achieved morbid distinction as halitosis. In choosing names for diseases we should strive for simplicity so far as may be consistent with descriptive ac- curacy. It is a grievous mistake, I think, to name diseases after their dis- coverers. Already we are burdened with Bright's disease, Rigg's dise: ton's disease, Addison’s, Basedow’s, Grave's, (the last four gentlemen claim _the same disease), Parkinson’s, Pott’s, Ray- naud’s and scores of other less familiar to laymen. So I propose that we christen 1. S. B.'s. disease hyperorexia, a plain and unassuming word which ny schoolboy who has a term of Greek can readily understand. For the bene- fit of the reader who has not mastered Greek, hyperorexia means too much appetite. “Heretofore doctors have been so busy caring for patients whose chief complaint was anorexia (too little ap- petite) that no one ever thought of the dire straits a victim of the opposite state would find himself in, until I. F. B. introduced the new disease. T do not seem to have anything wrong with me,” apologized Mr. throne of England, making sure there would be no return of the Stuarts. PERSONAL HEALTH SERVICE BY WILLIAM BRADY, M. D. “unless it is too much appetite. I think this is the matter with a good many people. I think I could always eat twice as much as I do, but I don't. Luigl Cornaro must have had some vague conception of hyperorexia when he wrote his “Art of Living Long” in the time of Christopher Columbus. But it remained for I. F. B. to give the world his classic description of the malady, also the best known remedy for it. Read it again: eat twice as much as I do, but I don’ Who was it that advised the young man contemplating engaging in some occupation, profession or way of life the other had followed with success? Anyway, I. F. B. gives us the healthful answer to that great modern problem, “Shall I take another section of pie?” Strange how our ideas have changed in a short generation. Formerly the cilef concern of doctor and patient was how to crowd more nourishment in. Now it appears to be nearly every- body's object to select food that is “strengthening” yet not “fattening” and nearly any smart one but a doctor can and will tell you which foods meet this requirement. Seriously, I. F. B. really has dis- covered a new disease, I think. Eating is great sport, and in many cases it is a soclal accomplishment; lunching is an important factor in business circles; dining is a recognized way of bridging business and social relations; superflu- ous late suppers mark advanced stages of the disease; everything in modern life conspires to keep appetite far ahead of metabolic capacity. Maybe, after all, hyperorexia is just another indication that we can't stand prosperity. (Copyright. 1929. “I think I could [ LITTLE BENNY —_— BY LEE PAPE.

Healthy Skin. ‘The skin is not merely a protective covering for the body, as some people suppose, but an organ, just as truly as are the heart, the kidneys or the lungs. And it is the most hard-working organ in the body. for it produces oil, sweat, hair and nails; absorbs, throws off wastes, breathes and regulates the tem- perature of the body. ‘The sweat glands, located in the true skin, under the epidermis, do the im- portant work of throwing off waste and water through perspiration. Of course, individuals differ as much in the char- lfit;em'.lol of these glands as in every other. Some people perspire freely in Sum- mer, others in Winter. With some ex- cessive perspiration is confined to cer- tain regions; with others the whole skin is affected. But a certain amount of perspiration is absolutely necessary at all seasons for a healthy body. As much as two pounds of perspira- tion may be lost in a day. fortable. Then, too, aside from this normal sweating, which may easily be regulated by a change in dress, cleans- ing baths, refreshing toilet waters and powders, there is a type resulting from nervousness or general poor health where profuse sweating occurs on the surface of the skin, like the palms of the hands, under arms, soles of the feet, scalp, forehead, chest and upper lip. Sometimes the perspiration has an unpleasant odor, which, when detected, handicaps a woman's charm and a man’s social acceptability. the application of astringent lotions and powders, which give temporary relief, but for a real cure it is necessary to build up general health and mental poise. Sometimes a change from rich, spicy foods to a simpler diet will help. Usually, if not always, marked nervous- ness accompanies this trouble. The nervousness may be a symptom of some internal condition that needs adjusting. A thorough physical examination should be had to ascertain the underlying cause, and when this is found and remedied both nervousness and ex- cessive perspiration will gradually dis- appear. | "When, however, a physical cause can- |not be discovered, one must look for Helen and Thomas are 11 and 13 years old respectively.

Helen and Thomas keep busy every moment but they do nothing. That is because they have carried their childish activity along into the years when it should have been changed into purposeful activity. There is a time when a child has little continuity of thought or effort. All he is required to do is keep touching, pulling, inves- | tigating. But that time passes.

The last | lingering misconceptions of this sor: were swept away with the food con- gervation campaign so valiantly waged during the last war. At that time we were made to feel that it was a real act of patriotism to conserve food, to use up leftovers and to make the most of the foods that had once been consid- ered commonplace if not actually vulgar.

Al foods have a definite num- | ber of calories per pound. When you take into your body more calories than you need for daily use, more than your body burns up, then they may be stored away in the form of excess fat. It all sounds very complicated, as indeed it is. | Almost all cases of overweight are due | to taking more calories—that is food ! containing more calories—than the | body requires. Some foods are very rich in calories, while others are not. A cer- | tain amount of calories is needed by the ; average person, of given height, doing a like amount of work. To keep down i one’s weight one should at first take somewhat under this allowange, in order to make use of some of the calories | stored away in the form of fat. After this one should limit oneseif to the npr- mal allowance so as not to start storing away calories in fat again. In order to find out about how many calories are contained in the diet it is necessary to get a list giving the calorie counts of usual portions of various sorts of foods, then by making a list of foods of any meal with the calorie counts beside them one simply has to add up to get the total count. The total count! of the three meals a day should come telow the usual allowance if one wishes to lose weight. -Such lists may be found in any up-to-date book on diet, (Copyright, 1929.) “How to rid your home . of insect pests” TaE best way to kil flies, mosquitoes, ants, roaches, bedbugs, etc., is to spray with Black Flag Liquid, the deadliest liquid insect-killer known.
