NEWS OF INTEREST TO WOMEN ITEMS OF INTEREST TO EVERYONE MARGARET FORESMAN, Society Editor SHOP HOPPING WITH This is the beginning of Honey reek, according to the promo- ions calendar. I am very glad} they went on to say that it didn’t | specif; exactly what kind of honey, for ell I know it coulda meant certain females who are} fefinitely in that class in certain litle black books. On the side of anniversaries | our 25th President, Thecdore Roosevelt was born in New York; in 1858, and oh joy! The baby varriage was invented in 1829. So. in honor of Honey week, we will go on to tell you about some “ery sweet buys discover- ed for today’s column in some of ow stores, * . * ok ‘We've been so busy strolling around in that new shoe depart- ment at Globe and admiring all the super supers, we neglected the other side where the old Pic'M idea is still extant. The shoes are low priced because you literally pic'm off the shelves. Latest arrival is a darling bal- let type slipper straight out of a Persian fairy tale. Of black velvet, crocheted with gold thread around the sole and the vamp, it's pretty and comfort- abli, dancing or lounging. All the new shoes are in the low »ri d line and every man, woman and child in this here now town can huve a fine shoe wardrobe, Would like to tell you also that now is the time of the year when the buots, low, Half Wellingtons, and higher are popular with the younge- men. I saw quite a few at Globe and they start at $8.95 for the Wellingtons. x ke *& . Was there ever a cake maker with soul so dead, who never to herself has suid, “Why can’t I make a perfect boiled or seven- minute frosting every time?” Now ‘ais is a plagarism on a we'l-known first. line substituting “cole maxer” for “man”, but it fist I was delighted recently to é ve the perfect foolproof fi ‘ng recipe that you can’t te’. from a boiled or seven-min- ute icing, but it dvesn’t even ol ‘near the stove. This one is for! cl pping, gals! Beat two egg whites with a/ rotary beater until mixture forms | in soft peaks. Add while beat-) ing, one-fourth teaspoon of salt. gradually add one-fourth cup su- gar, one tablespoon at 1 time, beating unti? smooth and glossy. Then slowly add three-fourths | cup white Karo syrup beating thoroughly afte: each addition, unti, firmly peaked. Fold in one and one-h. lf teaspoons vanilla. If desired after that you can tint, er use other flavoring instead of vanilla. Good also sprinkled with | fresh coconut, * x * Find yourself sud-enly inter- ested in skirts ‘n blouses? I saw a darling one in Beldner’s Saturday. This was of dark rayon with a wooly texture, knife pleats all around, topped by a bright red belt. For $3.98 it can't be beat, and can't you just imagine it with a bright red sweater? Another sweetie in the skirt department ,,.. an Antique Tweed .... made of cotton! Pretty as can be, smartly tail- ered with a wide, wide belt, and only a small $5.98, Wrinkle Tesistant too, They go together ..,. skirts, arid the cotton jersey blouses that look and are made just Tike expensive ones of wool. Tweedy things for dull or sparkly days, bright as an au- tumn leaf, Then .... co your skirts will fit and look trim .... “Pint x0" girdles or panty girdles in ice cream white, These are | the pints that held a gal-in! | xr | Now that the grand jury has did you ever start to! makers and dis- the law happened on twelve for jurors? read that there are twelve on a jury because court astrologers who had charge of choosing juries used to select one man for each sign of the zodiac. The idea was that, because w would bring every type of mind} and very type of individual to consider the question, the verdict | would be most fair. eS This may come as quite ®& shock to you. but Christmas IS com) . in exactly 58 days | j | a should go into the Beachcomb- er Jewelers these days you'd really believe it. Saturday was like Christmas there, what with cartons and boxes and tissue flying madly about, and all that go.jeous costume jewelry, glittering watches and wonderful lamps and gifts emerging like butter- flies from a chrysalis. Another thought .... we've said it before, we'll say it again... . although it's 59 days to go. they aren't all shopping days you know, and if you shor early ... a small deposit will hold your selec- tion, ana you can make use of the generous <y-away offer til Christmas. There are a lot of smart folks doing this right now. They know the best se- lection can be made early. Ah, it’s lovely indeed to see these things being unpacked. Gives quite a glow. and it isn’t all the reflected glow of fine gifts and jewelry, although that’s bright enough. x * The following is apt to make you gasp, the price of butter be- ing what it is. Did you know that in Tibet they WASH in butter? First they rub it over their hands and face, then gredually over the whole body, pommeling as they go. Next they scrape off the mass and begin polishing until the skin shires. This process takes about four hours, after which the butter that has been scraped off is stored away for the next bath, and the next and the next, untill it becomes so encrusted with dirt that it can be broken in the hand. At this point the butter- plus is placed in full sun'ight, a jar underneath to catch the drip- pings, and is thus “refined” for further use. The older the butter the better . . . 50, 60 or 100 years old is fine. Oh well, . come to think of it, soap and water isn’t so bad, z * * +++ So I walked into Ideal Togs and sat down on a pint sized chair . . . hanging over all ‘round, but the chair was so cute. New miniature furniture for smail fry at Ideal. Straight sturdy little chairs of birch, made by a furniture house in achusetts. Just for kid- dies. Cunning little rocking cl for little Missie to rock r youngest dollies to sleep . . . and chairs that tinkle out delightful tunes that will soon set both to nodding. There are nice little ta- bles to go with the chairs too. Makes all the tea parties most successful. These lend themselves to playing school and will wash off easily if the crayons slip. Then when Shop Hopping was done at Ideal, | got up off the lit- tle chair and there it stood, sturdy as before which surely ought to prove something . . . and besides, | didn’t hang over «e+ Very much! x ke * You hear a lot about wonder drugs nowadays, but for some peo- ple at least, Penicillin is no pana- cea. One in sixteen is painfully al- lergic to it. The thought comes that maybe Job ate something moldy out of the ground when he got those Biblical agonies, ee 1's one thing to be told about a thing and write blythely about it «++ and another to actually SEE i. That's why I'm telling you again about the Hiawatha Lace yarns at the little Southernmost Flowers and Gifts workshop. Last week | hadn't seen them, but Sat- urday | did. This is the oddest yarn you ever saw. It ranges in thickness in a single twelve in- ches length from the finest thread te a big knotty section and back again. No strain, no pain, and you knit a lovely rayon bleuse. The texture of the yarn | is what makes it lacy! Another item you'll need before you start to work, 2 darling straw workbasket . . . only $2.89. You can combine work and shep- ping; teke it along wherever you ge. As you pess through the flower shop, stop and see the miniature | Art Show at Sevthernmest. These are some of the best known paint- ings of our local Key West Art- ists.
