WOMAN Slippers for Spring and Summer BY MARY Bome women choose evening slippers for warm weather a half size or & full size larger than those they wear in cooler weather, in order to secure per- fect comfort. But unless Winter shoes are worn too small this is not usually a - §0od jdea. It is important, however, to #select slippers that are light of weight and of a material that is at the same time firm and fairly cool. No material has ever proved more generally satisfactory than leather for PERS ‘TOE PIPED WITH KID. SLIPPERS OF SILVER LAME DYED GREEN ‘TO MATCH GOWN. shoes, but for Summer evening slippers various woven materials, silk, linen or cotton, have much to be sald in their favor. Our artist has shown three slippers recently chosen by a well dressed woman for Spring and Summer evenings. The brown crepe de chine may be worn ef- fectively with beige dresses or with nted materials showing beige or wn. The dark tone makes them practical for repeated wearings. The white moire slippers may be worn with MARSHALL. any light-toned evening dress and the slits at heel and toe recommend them for warm evenings. The third slippers of silver lame were specially dyed green to harmonize with a green chiffon dress for which they were selected. Simple white sewing is the best for warm days when complicated dressmak- ing seems out of place. This week's il- lustrated circular shows how to make a very easy sort of nightgown that can be completed in an hour or two.

Making Faults of Virtues: “Cleanse thou me from secret faults.” —Ps,, xix.12. Secret faults! What faults are these? Not necessarily faults that I am lceg; ing hidden from others. They may faults that are hidden from my own eyes. And they are apt to be faults which come from my virtues. We frequently hear it said of a man “He is generous to a fault.” The say- ing suggests the idea that it is possible to make a fault of a virtue. There are vices which originate in the very goodness of the soul. We often see a man possessed of some vice which comes from something really good In him. But often young men are led astray by their generous impulses. They take to the winecup, not from any love of the wine, but from sheer love of fellow= ship. Love of companionship is a virtue, but unless one keeps a close watch on himself it may lead him into perilous depths. It is noble to be generous. But the man of generous impulse is often apt to give promises beyond his ability; not because he wants to make a favor- able impression, but because he wants to make people happy. Self-respect is a needful virtue. We need to be self-respecting enough to guard our character and good name. But there is the ever-present danger of our self-respect degenerating into pride of heart. How beautiful is love! And yet how easily it may sink to the level of mere animalism. Into what gross wrongs men and women are often led by false love! And 5o all along the line our constant rayer should be that we may not fall &w this error of making faults of shall, care of The Star, and it will be | ‘'THE EVENING Today in Washington History BY DONALD A. CRAIG. April 23, 1811.—The third census of the United States has been taken, in accordance with the provisions of the Constitution. The enumerators did their work last year, and the results, as tabulated partially, are being gradually made available to the public. In the National Intelligencer of to- day the population returns for this sec- tion for 1810 are given as follows: Washington City, 8208; Georgetown, 4,048; Washington County, 2,315; Alex- andria County, 1,325. ‘These figures are not complete. It is understood that they include white per- sons, but exclude slaves. However, the National Intelligencer does not give any detailed explanation of the returns. The second census of the United States, taken during 1800, gives the population of the District in Maryland as 8,144. Within the entire area of the pro- posed new city, as laid out by Maj. L'Enfant on his map and comprising more than 6,000 acres, the three Com- missioners of the Federal District, ap- pointed by President Washington, found on the first of May, 1800, the following buildings: Brick, 109; wood, 263. In addition to the population of the District of Columbia in what was for- merly Maryland, the census returns for 1800 gave the population of Alexandria City as 5,171, and that part of Fairfax County, Va., within the bounds of the District as 973. The separate population of the new Federal City, except the number of heads of families, was not given in the second census. Whether it will be made available in the third census, taken last year, is not yet known. The estimated population of Washington City in 1800 was 3,210, while Washington County that year was estimated to have 1941 and Georgetown 2,993. The same esti- mate gives the total population of both Alexandria and Alexandria County in 1800 as 5.949. These figures have been recently re- published by the press so that compari- sons may be made when the figures for the census of 1810 are made available this year. Less than 700 were slaves in the 1800 census. — Grapefruit Mayonnaise.

I was wawking home from the store with ma and Leroy Shoosters mother was standing on her frunt steps, ma saying, Good afternoon, Mrs. Shooster, how is your grandchild? Meening Leroys sisters new baby, and Mrs. Shooster sed, She's the werlds most perfeck baby, thats how she is. Well, I mite find that less doubtful to believe if I dident have a grandchild of my own, bless his little hart, he's the finest baby that ever drew mortel breth, ma sad. Meening my sister Gladdis baby, and Mrs. Shooster sed, Well of corse opin- ions differ. And s0 do babies, ma sed. My grand- son certenly differs from any other baby I ever saw of all sexes, and the advan- tage is all on his side of the family, and Id say the same thing rite in the teeth of the chief judge of a baby show, she sed, and Mrs. Shooster sed, Well Im sure I have no wish to run down your grandchild, Ive seen him out in his car- riage several times and Im sure he'll get over his little habit of twisting up his face for no apparent reason. Well my lands, Mrs. Shooster, your own face would proberly twist up like a corkscrew with the itch if you were Iying out with the sun in your eyes; so considering all the circumstances I think my grandchild shows remarkable self control, ma sed. In a way, perhaps, but my little granddawter has so much natural god sents that when she feels the sun in her eyes she lets out such an uproar that somebody changes her posi- tion immediately, in other werds she knows how to take care of herself even at that age. My grandson has a much more deter- mined spirit than that, ma sed. He'd rather fite the sun by screwing up his little face at it, and though I admit the battle is rather one sided in the suns favor, yet its a wonderful thing for the child to be so idealistic and fite agenst terrific odds, because Im sure in later life no ebstacle will be too grate for him. Well good by, ma sed. And she quick kep& on going while Mrs. Shooster was still trying to thing up something elts. Drawn-Butter Sauce. Put two ounces of butter in a sauce- pan, and when melted sprinkle in one Stir well with an_egg beater until the flour is well cooked, but not brown; then mix in half a pint of water. When cooked, take from the fire and strain; then stir in an_ounce of butter cut in small pieces. If this sauce is used on fish, a few drops of lemon juice should be added. FEATURES BEAUTY CHATS Making Up Your Face. Lots of girls ask me how much make- up they really can use without being in bad taste, and without looking as though they were trying to call atten- tion to themselves. It is surprising how much artificial coloring really can be used on a face without the face be- coming conspicuous. We are probably 50 used to face powder and rouge that we no longer see it unless there is an awful lot of it. Everyone can, during the day, use a foundation cream. A very, very fine vanishing cream is erdinarily the best sort, though a dry skin may look better if cleansing cream is rubbed into it and then wiped off, leaving just the least bit for the powder to cling to. Powder, of course, is & modern neces sity, and the fine powders made today cannot possibly harm the skin. The great problem really is whether to use rouge, and what kind. The only pos- sible way to make a rouge look as though the colér actually came from the skin itself is to use a cream rouge which-is put on before the powder. To use this you must first rub the skin with very fine cleansing cream, or an oil, leaving just enough in the skin 50 you can spread a cream rouge even- ly. You put it on a shade too bright, because afterward you powder the whole face very thickly, leaving the pflwder a minute to be taken up by the oil. After that rub the powder smoothly over the skin and powder lightly a sec- ond time. Then at your discretion use a lipstick. This is an excellent way to make up the face for the day time, the make-up is easily removed with cream or oil, and during the day it will stand any number of powderings, while the color of the rouge will stay. A dry rouge is more easily put on, of course, but a dry rouge comes off when you rub powder over your face, and never stands a very close inspection. You can go in for as elaborate a make-up as you want for evening. You can use shadowing powder around the eyes then, but not during the day. Sally and Jean—You should shampoo your hair every week.

They are “just like grandmother used to have” and in just as good taste to« day as then—the old-time woven covers let and the rocking chair with a ladder back. g There is & quaintness about botly of these articles which makes them delightful for early American rooms. Certainly, for the spread of a four- poster or spool bed, nothing could be more appropriate than one of these coverlets. Made in several color selections is this coverlet, such names as indigo blue, old blue and. whig rose suggest~ ing how beautifully théy might be worked into an attractive bed room scheme.

The chair has an interesting cover- ing of quilted chintz, the quilting being done in lattice pattern with the rose buds of the design used as & guide and made to come at the intersections. The frame of the chair could be most at- tractive if of maple in the honey color, and the covering could have a ground of red, green, peach or blue, depending upon the room in which the chair was to be used.
