Do believe, however, that} many of you want to help someone who has had the emotional shock as well as the physical loss which fire can cause. Foodstuffs, cloth- ing, household goods and cash are urgently needed. Sister Superior at the Convent, Joan, or yours truly will be more than happy to deliv- er your thoughtfulness to Mrs. Fel- lers.

You'll find handsome. place mats made of Philippine hemp, Hongkong tice straw, Japanese reed at a mos' asonable price. A somewhat different idea, but -most welcome as a wedding pres- ent would be the ornamental, but practical MEXICAN CHARCOAL BRAZER. This is fashioned after has a piace for built-in draft. The extra beauty of this in addition to its lovely terra cotta shade is that you may cook indoors or out with it, and the graceful wrought iron stand | is optional ‘i To browse or buy, by all means see this fairly new shop — the Windward House. Ask to see that Honduras glass cocktail set which is a heavenly blue—or the “honey-colored glass pitcher with, gently fluted top—or the large handsome Mexican candie- sticks made of tin with a small Indian design. Soon, too the Windward House will have the COMPLETE LINE OF SPICE ISLAND spices and ely beautiful and andies.

However, can only decide that perhaps Friendly Fauste’s just love to practically give food away. As many of you know, Fausto’s is just naturally generous—so, it makes me real happy to tell you of a few of the terrific buys at this grocery store. TENDERIZED PICNIC HAMS —at merely and only and actual- ly—29 cents PER LB!

And to spin out another Blue Plate— there’s Peanut Butter of the same name for 33 cents! Such prices might beat my be- lieving powers, but they sure help the budget—black side, that . And tomorrow, shall tell you more of the STUPENDOUS SAV- INGS to be found at FAUSTO‘S FOOD PALACE, 522 Fleming Street! ss ees. : Amelia Jenks Bloomer is credit- ed not only with crusading for Wo- man’s Rights but being the first lady to adopt this form of costume to help rally ‘round the causé of freedom for females. A full length picture of Amelia shows the cele- brated bloomers to be actually ankle-length pantaloons — or per- haps she just used a rubber band to hold in a pair of wide, flare- legged pajamas. ‘In any event, she has sweet and-angelic face and doesn’t: look as if she could hold her own in a taffy-pulling contest. cae eed A reminder that gifts overseas should be mailed by November 15INA PICTURE BY. PORAY (404 Southard) is a perfect way to let him or her know you‘re thinking of them. Pictures are a personal gift, and they tend to span a jon.

Her a-| doption of the costume she is pic- tured wearing brought thousands of women adherents to the “cause.” It was the start of a dress reform that made a modified version of “bloomers” a standard part of wo- men’s attire for generations—and added a new word to our language. Years ahead of her time, Mrs. Bloomer was a champion of the under-dog in the decade before the Civil War crusading for woman’s rights, temperance and against slavery.” ’ =z bod = 5 Always beautiful surroundings enhanée a meal and the A and B.
