YWOMAN’S PAGE.’ Stitch in Time for Knit Textiles BY LYDIA LE BARON WALKER. ‘The pe dng “A muh in time saves nine,” was not referring to Mnfln' knit-weave textiles. If she had been she would have said a stitch in tlm! saves a hun- ‘dred and. nine. 8o quickly does this material unravel that unlus the stite 1s taken immediately a long run or an @ctual rent appears. ‘The weave, various] knvwn a8 stock- ing weave, jersey an well as by lrblt.rlry names of tuhlen‘l decrees, ‘AS SOON AS A RUN I8 DISCOV‘!R!'D “IT SHOULD BE MENDED. 45 eminently well suited to. lingerie, hosiery and outer garments and frocks that will not rumple and yet have style. ‘This raveling peculhmy‘ therefore, is one that must be reco in such textiles, just as fraying must in some ‘of the other materials, or the separating of strands in other fabrics. Each tex- tile ‘has its own characteristics, and ‘women learning them know how best to care for specific kinds. ‘The moment & break in & knit goods is discove: mended with the pmverbhl "Gfl!ch > It raveling has not begun all t is neces- m to secure the loop mu:hes as are caught firmly, a run will result however well a hole may be mended otherwise.

It may be well to mention the fact that the runs weaken the textile which, having them in it, wears out far more quickly than mended apparel. (Copyright, 1930, SUB ROSA BY MIML Thinkin‘ c.p-'. he sense of a t millinery, m: whxch looks llke l mwer garden and bird cage, has passed out, it's vl!ll to consider the modern helmef as thinking cap. Bobbed hair has mnde woman's head something of definite size and contour. No longer 18 this head con- cealed under tresses and an awning. Something is going on under that trim toque, all right. Woman ‘used to imagine that all thinking was to be done by man. As for the females of the Apecku—well theirs not to reason why; theirs but to do and die, just like the famous 600 members of the Light Brigade. But the modern hat is a thinking cap. ‘The idea that man monopolizes all the mind stuff has been knocked into a cocked hat with a brick in it. Thought 18 in the air and on the market. Ideas are swimming around for anybody who can get the hook ready to catch them. Thought isn't a hifalutin’ process of which only man is capable. It's some- thing that'll fit any head. Thought- is just a process of sorting out ideas which are found in the rag- bag of the brain. It's a way of smooth- ing out rough impressions which are like wrinkles in a coat that has been out in the rain. It's like packing a suit case with the things you need, each one in its proper place. Can woman work all those tricks? To think about life you don't need to trim your mind with a lot of mental millinery. You can get the gist of life dlrect!i when you see u:n it is tocumd upon d love. The body an the hun must be fed. All else is mly incidental and accidental. To think about man is to consider an honest-to-goodness creature who wants something definite. Man 15 a brass tacksmith, a that's-thater. He wants something cut and dried and tied up with red tape. He can't understand why woman is late with her dates, ucug in her words and perhaps in her promises. Man is of the peacock variety—con siderable pride lnfl a loud voice. is his Acl tendon, so don’t hil there when you get mad. Pride t corn, and if you tread'on it, he'll cick like a Kickapoo Indian. Man is all right, but he likes to feel thlc he is important in our lives, like a ocg"tlmwmu. Every he- man is just such a cop and wants to exercise a protectorate over us. Think him over in your mind and you'll see that this is so. Every man is really & spoiled” child and must be.humored. His mother fixed him that way before any one of us got our hands on him. But he can be trained if he’s handied properly. When Great Folks Turn Petty Beethoven Sent Goat’s Beard to Lady Who Asked a- Lock of His Hair. BY J. P. e often offended them.

May 14, 1861.—At a late hour to- night it was discovered that a number of Government cattle, brought here for the Army, had either wan- dered or been driven by aome one into the City Canal from the Wi Monument Grounds. At last reports they were mmn: a [rut chumnu. lan is heueved that nlre-.ay several fine beeves have been drowne ‘The men are endelmnnc to drive the cattle to the shore of the canal near the point where it enters the Po- tomac River, west of the Washington Monument. . Many private citizens and soldiers of the provost guard are help- The noise can be heard nearly haif a mile away. Frederick W. Seward and Secretary of State Seward, his father, gave a vrilliant entertainment tonight at their new residence, near Lafayette Square. Among the (unu were President Lin- coln and Mrs. icoln, Gen. Winfield Scott and his lufl the ofcers of the Tth and 71st New York Re, .nents, Mh Massachusetts and Rhode nd ments. Many members of the diplomatic corps, in their bright uniforms, were present. Most of the Army officers were accompanied by their ladies in fine attire. Dodsworth’s Band of music, which accompanied the 71st Regiment, was in attendance and added to the enter- tainment. The hospitality lasted until a very late hour. Every day the Pennsyivania volunteer troops, quartered in ~the vicinity of City Hall and the assembly rooms, ap- pear in drill on the fine drill ground contiguous to their quarters. ~Under instructions from West Point grad- uates, assigned to them, the Pennsyl- vanians are making rapid progress. They attract large crowds of spectators whenever they appear for drill. The Pennsylvania soldiers are gen- erally stout and young and stand up well under severe exercise. They go to drill each day as to a regular day's job—officers and men in their shirt sleeves—and seem to enjoy it. ‘The 5th Regiment, New York, today appeared in front of its quarters, on Pennsylvania avenue, fully armed and equipped, as if for a long march. But it was learned it was merely chlnflnl quarters from Woodward's Building to the Capitol. ‘The surest way to get what you ask for is to ask for advice. Baked Roly-Poly.

I hate to have a man come up, and say to me, with deep- drawn sighs, “I hear you've lost your dachshund pup, and deeply do I sym- pathize.

FEATURES., BEAUTY CHATS A New Fashion. Since the styles in dresses have changed so rapidly it is necessary to make an equally revolutionary change in the way the hair is dressed. The very young women are letting theirs grow, but the women who are more than 30 are not so anxious to adopt a style which is bound to make them look much older. There are us com- es, however, by which you may the hair conveniently sl m nvo un effect of hmu it lonf and e 5o you make it sophistica look well in the ntwmno{ es. One of the best ways is to comh the hair back of the ears. You can very easily change your whole manner of hairdressing by letting the ears show whenever you put on an evening dress. During the day, with your simple tai- lored frocks, comb your hair your usual fashion—if it covers the ears and comes well out over the cheeks, it will ,m & softening effect and make the look younger. But there are many ways of hiding wrinkles or making & bad skin look hcd'.hY of making up the eyes and merally changing your face in the ennin: 80 that hairdressing is not so important.

In the evening brush the hair back behind the ears, brush the curls into a mass at the nape of the neck, slide in a fancy comb to hold the hair in place, and you will have a highly so- phmlntefl, easily achieved coiffure be- coming to any dress you wear. Some Ele fake Xm‘t.h by fastening curls in with a comb, but this is never a satisfactory arrangement.
