Whether to buy a few very good | things or a number of the less expen- |sive sort is a question that has been |hotly debated from the point of view of style as well as economy. It is a& question that you must decide for your- |self. If you are a woman of average proportions, if you can wear inexpen= | sive dresses hout looking badly dressed, if the other women with whom you associate wear clothes and hats of | the less expensive sort, and if you par- ticularly like variety, then by all means take advantage of the wide choice of | inexpensive dresses that can frequently | be had for very little more than the | price you would have to pay for the | material If, on the other hand, you never feel lor look your best in an inexpensive | dress, if you are thrown in contact with women whose expensive clothes would throw those of an inexpensive sort into marked contrast, and if you are per- | sonally well content to wear the same dress frequently, provided it precisely suits you, then by all means let your wardrobe be built up around a few dresses, hats, wraps, etc., of the more expensive sort chosen so carefully that they can be worn for many months. Younger women, as a rule, find the first plan_the best, while the older woman, who has had time to discover the type of thing that best becomes her, very often finds distinct advantage lin the second plan. ing pack lotion or cream. Bathing the face in buttermilk is an old-fashioned | but helpful remedy for this purpose. | The following is a mild bleaching pack { which will not injure the most delicate | skin: Beat the white of an egg to a stiff froth and mix with it an equal amount of oil of sweet almonds. After cleansing the face at bedtime apply the bleaching pack and leave it on overnight. In the morning wash the face and pat on a little of the mild bleaching lotion which may be made as follows: One ounce peroxide, one ounce cologne water, one ounce glycerin, six ounces rosewater. Apply with a clean ‘piece of absorbent cotton and allow it to dry on the skin, then dust with a light suntan face powder.

Dear Miss Leeds: I have a slight growth of hair on my upper lip and, as my hair is dark, it is quite promi- nent. I have been told that if I apply peroxide to bleach these hairs I could also apply ammonia, which will take it out by the roots ahd all. I would like your confirmation te this statement. MISS LOUISE. Answer—I am sorry to say that the removal of superfluous hair is not such a simple process. The only permanent way in which such a growth can be removed is by electrolysis. The purpose of the peroxide and ammonia is merely to bleach the hairs and thus they be- come less noticeable. Merely add six drops of the ammonia to three table- spoonfuls of the peroxide. In addition to bleaching the hairs this method does have a tendency to discourage the growth somewhat and many of my readers have beén quite enthusiastic about the results. So I would advise you to use these bleaching agents, but please don't expect too much. If the gowth is merely the fine down on the ce do not tamper with it, as this is quite natural. However, if the growth is abnormal have your phy- sician remove it or advise you regard- ing its removal. Some women use the cream depilatories and others shave, but the latter method makes the hairs grow in bristly. LEEDS. (Copyright, 1930.)

C—A widow may be addressed Today in Washington History BY DONALD A. CRAIG. June 1865.—The present move- ment of Union troops over the Balti- more & Ohio Railroad from Washing- ton toward Baltimore and points north and west is declared by railroad offi- cials to be “probably the greatest move- ment, of the kind in the history of the ‘world.” These are the men of the Army of the Potomac and Sherman’s two armies, some of whom have been paid off and mustered out of the service here, hav- ing been provided with transportation to their homes, and. others of whom are being sent to other parts of the country to be mustered out. The celerity with which the troops are being sent rejoicing on their way homeward is attracting favorable at- tention from Government officials and others, The great troop movement is going on without retarding any of the regular passenger trains on the road to Baltimore and the West or any of the tonnage trains out of Washington, which are all running on their regular schedules. In order that the troops might be forwarded homeward with as little de- lay as possible, the necessary arrange- ments for cars were made several days before the movement began by Presi- dent Garrett of the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad and Master of Transportation Smith. The plans have been working so well that the general agent of the railroad in this city, George S. Koontz, has had at all times the requisite num- ber of cars at his command to enable him and his aides, Messrs. Collins, Hapsley and Thompson—with W. J. Stephenson, -H. P. Gilbert and Joseph Kingsley at the Government warehouses —to move the troops promptly in all instances. Capt. Benjamin Burton, A. Q. M, and his clerks, who have been making out the necessary official papers au- thorizing the movement of the troops, are nearly worn out with hard work They have been going at top speed since the movement began, May 31. Since May 31, the records show, 79,- 810 men, with 2,430 horses and 1,902.- 500 pounds of baggage, have left this city by railroad. The Soldiers’ Rest, in the charge of Capt. Camp, affords a comfortable place for soldiers who are waiting for trains or who have missed the trains to which they were assigned. Those in need re- ceive rations and otherwise are pro-|. vided for by those in charge of the Soldiers’ Rest. SONNYSAYINGS BY FANNY Y. CORY. Oh, Puppy! Shamey!

She had seemed somewhat frail before they left the hospital and being at home had not improved mat- ters much. Lois kept in constant touch with the doctor. He gave Lois careful directions which were something like this: Give the baby a complete bath in the morning. Sponge her hands and face during the day. On hot days give & complete sponge bath at noon time and also at 5:30 o'clock before she is put to bed for the night. Keep the temperature of the bath water between 95 and 98 degrees during first six months. Do not let baby stay in_water more than 3 minutes. Bathe the baby’s eyes each morning with a 2 per cent boric solution. Have the druggist make this up for you. Use & fresh piece of cotton for bathing each eye. Do not wash the baby's mouth, but give a spoonful of sterile water after each nursing. Use a soft pledget of cotton for cleaning inside of baby’s nose. Do not use a stick to clean either nose or ears. Be sure that Ann’s ear lies flat when she is sleeping while lying on her side. Do not use soap on Ann’s scalp more than three times a week. Since Ann has a few scales on her head—called cradle cap—rub a little olive oil into scalp at night. Do it gently. The scales may be removed in the morning but here again great gentleness is needed, lest the scalp become irritated. Apply unperfumed, good _quality talcum after drying the baby when she has had her morning bath. 5 And do not excite her nor handle her too much in warm weather. Keep the fewest possible clothes on her. (Copyright, 1930.) Layettes are not as large as they used to be.

EAR MISS DIX—I am going to be married very soon and I want to make a happy home for my husband. I want to make a home that he will be glad to come to and where his friends will be sure of a welcome. on his having his bachelor friends in whenever he wants them, and I will not stay snooping around listening to what they say and being a killjoy. I am sorry to say there have been many women in his life, but when I marry him knowing this, I will not run to the nearest police station or tear the girl’s hair out, no matter how much I feel like it. friends nor my mother, nor let him suspect I know, but wi' try to make myself more attractive and his home more pleasant. Am I too easy-going in my plans? J.W. L Answer: Indeed, no. Your plan for making & happy home and making your marriage a success is the very essence of wisdom. All of the matrimonial bureaus | jn maple, mahogany or walnut, or it in the world could not have doped you out a better scheme. The real secret of managing a husband is to drive him with a light Tein. Never let him feel the curb and realize tha you are guiding and controlling him Never flick him with the whip of reproof. Never let him feel that he is in har- ness and has become just a family dray horse and can never kick up his heels again. The thing that makes men bolt oftenest is just the little petty tyrannies their wives put upon them. The eternal “do this” or “don't do that. cessant nagging about little faults and habits. ‘The in- If wives could only manage to make their husbands feel that they are an adjunct to their pleasures instead of & brake upon them, it would make matrimony a grand, sweet song instead of the scrapping match it too often is. . It is the easy-going wives who keep their husbands. I doubt if any amiable woman, one with a sense of humor and a laugh hung on a hair-trigger, ever lost her husband, no matter how fat and middle-aged she got or what a poor cook she was. The one thing 2 man s grateful to his wife for beyond everything else is not picking a fuss with him or making a row over little things or re- minding him of his faults. He gets enough bumps in the outside world. He gets enough bawling out from his boss or his customers or his patients. minute of the day, and when he comes home he wants peace and quiet and to be jollied and somebody to laugh at him feelings hurt and making an issue ofit. He has to watch his step every if he is cross instead of having her And he wants to flop down on the couch and put his head on the best sofa cushion and scatter the newspapers all over the floor without a row being made over it. And you are not only wise but just in starting out to give your husband & square deal in the home. One of the reasons that so many men step out is because their wives have preempted the house and monopolize it, and the hus- band hasn't even the right of a boarder in the home he supports. ‘How wives get this way nobody knows, but the average woman thinks that the home is her sole property and that she has the right to space and to say who shall come in it. every inch of the Hence you make & good move when you make your husband at home in his own home and you bind him to you when you make his ngends welcome. ROTHY DIX. (Copyright, 1930.) Two good examples of historical pottery. Unique Value in Historical Pottery BY LYDIA LE BARON WALKER. The plate shows the State House at Albany, N. Y., while the ships on the pitcher are old whaling vessels in New Bedford, Mass. Historical pottery is one of the most interesting types of ceramics. The name is given to pieces of earthenware, semi- porcelain, china, etc,, on which are de- picted illustrations of historic events, persons or things. Such decorations of actual shapes in the various wares ap- pear to be co-existept with ornamental potteries. The decoration on ancient wares supplics many an ald to histori- cal research dating back to times im- memorial. Some of the earliest Peru- vian pottery is in the form of drink- ing cups shaped to resemble the heads of rulers. Ming china is replete with pictures that supply historical records of that marvelous country. French and English history are written on thelr ceramics, etc. Down through the ages this pottery has been valued until it was desecrated by cheap souvenir pleces, cheap in price and poor in pictorial element. Fortu- nately these unworthy specimens have not decreased the worth or merits of fine specimens which are the delight of collectors. It has now been half & century since the pronounced vogue of historical pottery in America. During this renais- sance enterprising china dealers had copies of famous pictures transferred to plates, pitchers and other articles, thus preserving ceramic records of early American days and of current events. Much of this pictorial work was dohe in England and France, where pieces were sent from this country to be deco- rated, as was the custom in post- Revolutionary times. The English pot- tery had no special relish for portray-| p & O e | ing American statesmen and scenery in the early American period, but it seemed wise to them to earn an honest penny from their recent kinsmen, now ventur- ing on their own on another continent In most homes there are some pieces of pottery or other ceramics that come under the historical classification. The pleces should be prized if they are an- tique American, Spanish-American War pleces or of the earlier rendissance in which there was a genuine and pro- nounced vogue as mentioned before in this article. If the homemaXxer has a single piece of any ware, and in any shape, size or form on which persons, places or events are pictured, she should have sufficient interest to find out the history of the article dnd the story of the picture. One piece in the writer’s collection is & very small cream pitcher showing whalers at an old wharf in New Bed- ford, that ship-building center and whaling port of America® When the pitcher was made some 50 years ago these old whalers were still at & wharf in that city, and the artist made an etching which was pictured on ceramics as well as etched on copper.

Home in Good Taste BY SARA HILAND, Just see what a practical table this is—for one so small. It is high enough to be handy for the armchair, and yet it has a top on which may be placed a lamp and books. A tray fits on to it, too, and there is a drawer in which might be kept cards, tallies, pencils, etc. It looks as if some one fitted several pieces of furniture together and made one very delightful littie plece. The standard is very similar to that of the old horse-screen used in front of the fireplace, the tray top reminds us of a regulation éoffee table and the ton and drawer are fashioned on the style of the typical end table. A table such as this might be finished might be painted in any color or com- bination of colors. If it is used in the living room it should be one of the first three finishes mentioned; but for the sun room or bed room, paint or enamel would give a better and more suitable finish. The tray may be equipped with a plate glass surface beneath which may be placed a piece of lace, chintz or brocade. (Copyright, 1930.) MOTHERS AND THEIR CHILDREN Setting an Example.

It nothing costs to be polite, And furthermore you know it right. —Peter Rabbit. Peter Rabbit sat on the edge of the water watching Starnose the Mole swimming toward him. As Starnose drew near, Redwing flew down to a tussock of grass and began his familiar clucking sound. Instantly Starnose turned his head. “Hello, Redwing!” smc;{ hlz; in a squeaky voice. “Hello, Starnose!” lied Redwing. “I want you to meet a friend of mine.” “Who?” squaked Starnose. “Whom go’ym want me to meet, and where is i as.

How comes it I have never met Peter Rabbit over here before?” “That's what I want to know,” said Redwing. “Peter comes over here of enough, but he says that until today he never has seen you,” “Well, 1 never have seen him,” squeaked Starnose, and then gave a funny little chuckle. Of course, he hadn't seen Peter, because, as I have already told you, he cannot see e ‘beside him.

He likes it where it is dryer. There are not earthworms enough over here to suit him. My, my, my, how that fel- low does like earthworms!

Eat your own and ignore her as far as her neg- lected plate is concerened. When mealtime is over clear the table and send the child on her way. Make sure that she gets no food until the next regular mealtime. Hunger is the best sauce to a jaded appetite. When a child is hungry he will eat. If he isn't hungry there is no need of his eating. Do not allow the child to see your anxiety. Try to be impersonal and polite and careless.
