WOMAN'’S PAGE. Blouse Which Gives New Touch BY MARY MARSHALL. Here is a new blouse that you fan make in an evening. And if you have @ jacket suit on hand this new blouse will be just the thing to give it a new fouch for the rest of the Summer. The blouse is made from eyelet embroidered bat linen—white batiste with (3 harmonize with the suit. The material: BEDTIME STORIE Antelope Twins See Father. Ive small respect for those who hide Thy that they have family pride. ZMrs. Fleettoot, The long Summer passed and the Antelope kids grew and grew, not alone tn size but in knowledge. The' band remained together, partly for greater safety and partly for company. You see, they are a social people. Mrs. Fleetfoot was the acknowledged leader and the twins took great pride in this. The twins were now half grown and their coats were no longer all gray and brown, for they no longer needed the protection of looking like the ground on which they lay. Their coats were now like their mother's. They were a f""" tan, with white bars across the t, & white patch on each side, white beneath and on the inside of NN gy Ve W Fas R “I HOPE I WILL LOOK JUST LIKE HIM WHEN I GROW UP,” HE CON- FIDED TO HIS SISTER. each leg, and Kid Antelope had & dark brown patch which later would be black under each ear. They were tre- mendously proud of these new coats. One morning in early September the band was joined by quite the hand- somest person the twins ever had seen. His coat was like those of the others save that it was somewhat brighter and there was a black patch under each ear. He was bigger than any of the others, but what the twins admired most was & pair of black horns about twelve inches long, slightly curved, es- pecially et the tips, and with a single short pointed branch, or prong, on each. They were as black as night and grew out from the top of his forehead in & way to give him a very striking | appearance, It was Fleetfoot. “This is your father,” explained Mrs. Fleetfoot, and it was plain to see that she was very proud of him. The twins didn't wonder at that, for they were even more proud. They followed him sround at a respectful distance, admir- Ing_him, especially Kid Antelope. “I hope I will look just like him when I grow up,” he confided to his sister. T want horns like those. Mother's horns don't amount to much. Anyway, they are not much to look at But those horns of father's are of some use, and they make him look so handsome. I have a couple of little lumps under the skin on my head. Perhaps those are my horns starting.” They were, but it would be several years before they were like Fleetfoots. “I hope he is as nice as he looks,” re- plied his sister. “I wonder why he has Bever been with us before.” “Because 1 wanted you all to myself when you were very small,” sald Mrs. Fleetfoot, who had overheard that re- ark. “Your father has been away by imself growing those fine horns, but he will stay with us.” ‘Hasn't he always had those horns?” MEXNU FOR A DAY.

Every day he romped with the twins and often the other young Ante- lope joined in the fun. ‘They would chase” Fleetfoot until they were tired, and he was always ready for a race with them. Sometimes he would race off by himself, and how he could run! He wasn't showing off. He was simply running for sheer love of running, and because he felt so good he had to do | | something. ~ And - always he was on | watch with those keen eyes of his for possible enemies. (Copsright, 1931.) sald Kid Antelope, | SUMMERTIME BY D. C. PEATTIE The end of Summer, the onset of Au- | tumn_are the seasons when, among our | wild flowers, and in the garden, too, one | family of flowering plants emerges as | | the ultimate victor of the year. This— | the composite or aster or daisy or thistle | family—gets away to a very late and | | unpromising start in March with a few | modest species in bloom—the robin’s plaintain and pussytoes and one or two | more. In Spring half a dozen families | look as though they were going to roll up the biggest score for abundance, va- riety and charm. One would bet on the Tose or the heather or the lily families, cr even the buttercup family. Even in June the daisy family is still far be- | hind many others. The mints, the fox- | glove family, the parsley, grass and bean families now seem destined to cer- tain greatness. But in July we begin to rotice the dark horse, still behind, but | gaining, as & few asters, many black- | susans and daisies and thistles and sunflowers burst into bloom. By Au- gust our dark horse is dark no longer, but ablaze with colors and streaming | far out shead. By September every Competitor is winded, spavined or | dropped dead on the course. The speed | of the mighty composite family, in- {stead of slackening, increases till it fin- \ishes in October in a glorious burst. ‘True, & large number of the compos- ites are mere weeds and even, like the thistles, ragweed, the poisonous white | snakeroot, very harmful. But this is| not true of most of them. Goldenrod is | not harmful, despite a superstition to | | that_effect, though it is certainly not beautiful enough to be made the na- tional flower. But asters (which might well be the national flower) are match- lessly lovely. The blazing star, or purple rocket, of which we have three sorts in the District, is one of the most gor- geous wild flowers in_the world and seems to me more infinitely beautiful and refined than such a gaudy thing as the poker plant, which some gardeners seems to me infinitely more beautiful if not in color or botanical relation- ships. Joe Pye weed is one of the love- | liest colors found in_ nature, a sort of | | rose-mauve very rarely seen. | " Again, there is scarcely a single mem- | ber of the family found on the Wild | Flower Preservation Societies’ protected list. You can pick as many as you want to of almost all of them and not | make & dent in their invincible, hardy, | glorious ranks. Nevertheless, we have here in the. District, in bloom right |now, some interesting rarities in this’ family, and -odditles not rare. I am thinking of the climbing hempweed, our only vine species in this family, which has curious flesh- colored flowers and is the one rep- | resentative in this climate of a huge | tropical group. The famous Western gum plant has become naturalized a little way down the Potomac, and so also has the quaint herba impia of Europe and old gardens. Another great tropical group has sent us the groundsel bush, the only bush-sized composite in our climate, which just reaches Cabin | John and is really & plant of the salt | marshes of the Southern States. A close relative also of a clan inhabiting trop- ical salt marshes is the marsh fleabane, | | that appears as far upriver as Mount | | Vernon and smells strongly of camphor, n to its urious purplish fl for THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, SONNYSAYINGS RY FANNY Y.

For this Nancy used fresh lima beans and fresh corn cut from the cob. She had her own technique for cutting the corn off. It sounds complicated, but the finished dish was worth the effort Nancy armed herself with two plates. a silver table knife and a sharp kitchen knife. First she husked the corn and brushed off the silk 3 Then placing a plate in the sink she stood an* ear of corn on it. holding the ear with her lefs hand. With the sharp knife held in her right hand she cut the tops of the kernels from the ear. She did not cut in deeply but took off the merest cap. Then she transferred the shorn ear to the second plate and again holding the ear in her left hand she used the | blunt edge of the table knfe to move up and down the ear and press out t | heart of the corn &nd the milky puip She moved the knife rapidly up and down the ear. The scored tops were cooked in a small amount of water for 15 to 20 minutes. Then the pulpy part was added and cooked for about 5 minutes This took the raw taste from the pulp N SUCCOTASL but did not toughen it as long cook- ing would have done. ’ In the meantime she had cooked the lima beans in boiling, salted water and added them to the cooked corn. Top milk or cream was added, not too much. Salt and pepper, plenty of it, were sprinkled over the succotash. top milk was not rich Nancy added a generous amount of butter. Truly, neither Peter or Nancy knew when to stop passing back their dishes for second, third and even fourth servings of fresh succotash.

The best way @ prevent painful sun+ burn is to acquife tan very slowly. It | is possible, even with the greatest care, for some persons to prevent it. Some skins burn very readily. A good way is to expose the skin to the bright sun for just a few moments at first, each day exposing it a little longer. If the skin is specially sensi- tive to sunburn, don't lie,in the sun after coming from the water. Get dressed directly on eoming out of the water, for the bright sun burns the wet skin very quickly. There are some excellent sunburn creams and lotions on the market, and one of them should be part of the vaca- tion equipment of everybody. This cream or lotion should be smeared gen- erously over the skin that has been ex- posed to the sun.
