Making Attractive Handkerchiefs It is such a satisfaction to have a large supply of really attractive hand- kerchiefs, so that you will never have choosing one to Wwith the dress you happen to be wear- ing. The sketch shows three new handkerchiefs that struck us as well worth nothing. The first is made.from BEDTIME STORIE | Spots Gives Flip a Surprise. do we fail to guess | T lems“that our friends possess —Flip the Terrie Plip is of an inquiring turn of mind. When anything interests him he likes to find out all he can about it. His meeting with Spots, the little cousin of Jimmy Skunk, had aroused his inter- est. He wanted to know more about this little member of the Skunk family, #o he asked questions of his friends, the three Dogs at the ranch. But tihese, having known Spots ever since they could remember, took no speciol “HOW W™ULD YOU GET UP IN A TREE?” HE DEMANDED. interest in him and knew compara- tively little about him. “All T know about him,” said one, “is that he minds his own business and is & good fellow to leave alone. When I meet up with him I say ‘Howdy’ and pass along.” “Me too,” said another. It was the one who had admitted having met | Spots Imfore. “The first time I met | him I didn’t do that. It was my mis- take. I was young and inexperienced and enthusiastic. I met Spots early one evening. No one had told me about him and I started in to treat him the way I would a Gopher or a Ground Squirrel.” | One of the other Dogs grinned. “You only started. I believe you never did finish,” he interrupted. The other nodded. “You've said it,” said he. “The start was as far as I got. It was some time before I knew what really happened. Something hit | me in the eyes and blinded me, and | at the same time the air was filled with the most awful odor, and for a few | minutes I thought I would choke to death.” “Just s0,” spoke up Flip. “And after that you had to go off by yourself. No one would let you come anywhere near them, not even your best friends.” The other mnodded. “Since then,” | said he, “I've known all I want to know | about that fellow. He can go where he pleases and do what he pleases when he pleases, so far as I am concerned.” “He seldom comes out in daytime,” four. squares of handkerchief linen— two of one color and two of another. These are usually bright colors which are so generally featured for late Sum- mer and early Autumn this season. Orange and brown, red and black, blue and red, green and brown, for in- stance. The squares are put er with narrow French fells and the hand kerchiefs are finished with a fine rolled hem - on the edges. Another attractive handkerchief is made of white or light pastel-toned linen and trimmed at the corners with three cverhfiplnz squares of contrast- ing colored linen. ‘You may use three pastel tones on a white handkerchief or three bright tones on a pastel-toned handkerchief. Little pleces of linen not more than three quarters of an inch square should be cut from the linen, turned under at the edges and finely hemmed down at the corner as shown in the sketch. The third handkerchief in the group is designed for evening or formal after- noon wear. It is made of a piece of chiffon about nine inches square finish- ed with a border of net two or three inches wide, so that the handkerchief when finished is a little less than fifteen inches square.

Burgess. place I would look up as well as on the ground.” At that Flip did look up, and there, to his astonishment, was Spots himself, sitting in a tree and seemingly quite at home there. “How, how, how did you get up there?” stammered Flip. “How would you get up in a tree?” he demanded. “I wouldn't, because I couldn't,” re- plied Flip promptly. Again Spots chuckled. “You should learn to climb,” said he. “Can you climb?” asked Flip, and | then grinned because that was such a foolish question. “T wouldn't be here if T couldn't,” re- plied Spots. “T don't climb often, but once in a while it comes in handy to get up in a tree.” “Your cousin, Jimmy Skunk, can't climb,” declared Flip, as if that were sufficient reason for believing that Spots couldn’t climb. “Then that is Jimmy's hard luck,” replied Spots pleasantly. == .

OLG A C‘H!EP among the mistakes that wives make are these: Forgetting that they have married men. Some women seem to think that they have married demigods and are terribly upset and disa) that their husbands are just mere, ordinary, human men, with t! assortment of masculine faults and frailties, Other women consider that they have been united in the holy bonds of matrimony to cash registers, and all the use they have for their husbands is to punch them for enough money to pay their bills. Before she married every wife had a good, reliable recipe for working men. Otherwise she would be an old maid. She caught her husband by flattering and cajoling him, by sympathizing with him, by listening with rapt attention while he talked about himself and his plans and hopes and ambitions. He married her in the fond belief that he had, at last, found one person who really appreciated him and that he would find in her an audience that would hang upon his words and always give him the glad hand. PBUT in most cases after marriage the wife disdains to employ the tactics in holding her husband that she used in catching him. From being a yes-yester she turns into a no-noer. Instead of applaud- ing her husband she harps upon his faults. Instead of lending an ear to his stories she tells him she has heard them a thousand times before. Instead of appreciating his generosity she takes all that he gives her as no more than her due and reproaches him because it isn't more. 1t is only once in a hundred times that you see a wife who treats her husband after marriage in the way she treated him before marriage, ‘nvnudy w)l_nl:ndyou do you also behold a husband who is eating out of his 's hand. THE second mistake that wives make is in ceasing to be lady loves. Too many wives regard the marriage license as a license to appear before their husbands in sloppy wrappers and with cold cream on their faces and smelling of onions. Also, they feel that there is no use in wasting any sentiment or romance or soft talk on a mere husband. NO wife makes a greater mistake than she who believes that her husband is going to be satisfied with a placid affection that mani- fests itself in darning his socks. He wants love that says it in words and caresses and if he doesn't find it at home he seeks it abroad. « The third mistake that wives make is in going too domestic. Of course, & man wants his wife to be a good housekeeper and a g mother, but he doesn't want her eternally to smell of bread and butter and to have no interest outside of the children. Yet many women do this. TH.!'RE are plenty of women who get so absorbed in their homes that they have no interest in anything else on earth. They never read, never think, never have an original idea, and their conversational range is from the kitchen tc the nursery and back again. And there are millions of women who never sec their husband as a man again after their first baby is born. Thereafter he exists only as the children's father, not to be considered or thought of except as & purveyor to the needs and wants of the children. THE fourth mistake that wives make is in being poor sports. A lot of them throw up their hands and quit cold when they find out that marriage isn't a perpetual party and that their husbands are not movie heroes but just ordinary human beings and that marriage exacts work and sacrifice from a woman just as it does from a men. AND perhaps the biggest mistake of all that. wives make is in being critics on the hearth. Very many wives consider that it is a wife's sacred duty to do all in her power to break down her husband's morale by continually keeping before him all of his defects and reminding him continually of the mistakes he has made and drawing invidious comparisons between him and some other man. ossibly it may be good for a man's soul to have a wife who criticizes his grammar and pronunciation and table manners, but her hand opens the door for the other woman who tells him how great and wise and wonderful he is. When women lose their husbands they always lay it on age and fat, but it isn't really time nor avoirdupois that is to blame. It is because they make one or the other of these mistakes. DOROTHY DIX.

YOU'WE 4OTTA GO TELLTHEM MILADY BEAUTIFUL BY LOIS LEEDS. . Reducing Large Pores. How to reduce enlarged pores and blackheads is fhe one beauty problem which seems to ‘cause more concern than any other. As it is a beauty blemish which may come to any one who does not wage an eternal fight against it, I am going to outline a treatment for any one so afflicted to follow. Exquisite cleanliness is an absolute essential in the fight against enlarged es. ‘These blemishes are, after all, § which are clogged with nat- ural ofl and grime, and thus have be- come enlarged and will eventually turn into blackheads or pimples. Thus the first step in the treatment is cleansing. Cover the entire face with cleansing cream, using the regular massage move- ments. Next, steam the face and leave | the cleansing cream on during the process, The face may be steamed by holding it over a bowl of very hot water, using & towel over the head to form part of a tent so that the steam will not escape. Be careful not to burn the skin during this process. For those who pre- fer, the face may be steamed by apply- ing towels wrung out in hot water directly to the skin, using five or six towels in all. After the steaming remove every bit of the cleansing cream. Remove it very gently with soft tissues or with ab- sorbent cotton. The cream and the | steaming together will have cleansed Steam one large Summer squash un- til tender, then cut into small cubes. Make an upper and a lower ple crust.

While the Ia; blackheads will not come out with mere removal of the cream, they are softened by this time and most of them can be removed with a comedone extractor. Be careful, however, not to brulse the skin, and if some still prove too stubborn it is best to let them re- main temporarily, as they will eventu- ally succumb to future treatments. The next step is to apply a tissue cream and then gently massage the face for about 15 minutes. This not only helps remove or ward off wrinkles, but it also stimylates the skin so that the pores are more active, and thus more able to throw off impurities rather than become clogged. At the end of the massage period the face should again be steamed for about three minutes, after which all traces of cream should be re- | moved and finally an astringent or skin tonic applied to the face. Conclude the treatment by rubbing a piece of ice, wrapped in a soft cloth, over the entire face, continuing the rubbing for several | minutes. This final step closes the pores | thoroughly. If' any one troubled with a coarse skin will give her face this treatment once a week, she will be more than re- | paid for the time and effort it takes, | for an immaculately clean skin is never | marred by blackheads.

For some time he hunted for Spots without success and was just about to give up, thinking that Spots had not yet come out from his den, when a voice said: “Hello, friend. Are you looking for something?” Flip stared all around, but could see no one. He couldn't tell just where that voice had come from. “I don’t know who you are, or where you are, | but I am looking for my friend, Spots the Spotted Skunk,” said he. “Have you seen him around here?” There was a little chuckle, and a voice over his head replied: ‘“No, I haven’t seen him, but were I in your e MENU FOR A DAY.
