That would gets the anniversary of their wed- ding, that he lets her birthday pass, as the dear ones at home never did; that he seldom thinks of giving her a present or suggesting an outing; that he does not even pass the salt at the table, nor open the door for her to go out.

Instead of heaving a sigh ot reg and buying a cheap and unsatist: neckwear, the cle allowance will a tory piece of girl of limited fully study the costly jabots and col lars and will make very pretty duapli- return home cates on her Of course she may not be able 1) indulge in the expensive Irish or Me- )| chin lace, but a good grade of point esprit will wear and launder beau- | titully and handkerchief linen | too expensive for the slim purse A very attractive little jabot can| be fashioned of linen or fine lawn cut in oval tabs. Three of these are used, the under one being an inch and a kalf longer than the upper one The edge is finished with a button- hole stitch and in the center of the upper oval a small medallion of Irisi lace is neatly stitched and the mater- ia] cut out underneath. A fuffier jabot is made of a five-' inch strip of either very pretty em-l broidery or inch-wide Irish lace Around this a frill of valenciennes lace an inch and a half in width is stitched on and at the top is fin- ished with a small flat bow of black velvet. A yard of Irish lace edging an inch wide may be bought for 75 cents, and this will make a very lovely side frill. A strip of linen three-quarters of a vard long is cut three iaches wide at the top and slanting to one inch at the bottom. This is edged with the Irish lace. The strip of linen is then gathered and the quarter of a yard of lace left is stitched to the gathered side, hiding the gathers and forming a dainty and easily laundered piece of neckwear s not Given Appropriate Name. “Seagumite” is the name given to | the new seaweed vulcanite of J. 8. Campbell, London chemist. It is proof against heat, cold, oils and the weath. er, and is recommended as an electric fnsulator, and a material for belting, steam packing, vehicle tires, and even for shoes. ,one can only know the truth of t | simple remedics against these “I have a very thin skin and, alas, | It 18 prematurely wrinkled. Please suggest some simple remedies for my | great misfortune. “A Woman of Thirty.” To be wrinkled at thirty {s indeed & | knows, as she used to live here. What misfortune, and 1f the skin is very thin it must be admitted that it has less promise from beautifving treatments than the thicker ones. Thin-skinned faces are at a disg vantage with every wind that blows, with sunburn, fire heat, indigestion, worry, ete. Thin skins need much more grease than others, for as a rule they are very dry and sensitive to all external futluences, and sometimes it is neces- to cleanse such faces with grease T or with soap and water. This a Wil achieve a very geod pur- it it is carctully made from pure tances: Almond oil . Spermaceti L, White wax .. Cucumber juice Select 1 ounces ..l ounce ....1 ounco 2 ounces cucumbers ripe enough for cut and chop them fine; then extract the juice by squeezing through a jelly bag. Then measure the juice and carry the required two ounces to a drugglst, asking him to | supply the rest of the ingredients and ! make up the formula. When cleansing the face with the | | cream work the grease into the skin | residue with very soft cloths. The | soil from the skin will be very visible on these, and the face can be mas- | saged and worked over with the cloths | until it feels as fresh as it washed in | the ordinary way. If It seems to shino | a little too much sometimes, heat a tablespoonful of some delicate toilet water and go over the face with this | and a fresh soft rag. A lotlon especlally for strengthening relaxed muscles, and which is there- fore extremely good for wrinkles, is made of the following simple things: Fresh rosemary tops.2 pounds Sage (also freshly gathered) .........% pound 1 Rectifled spirit. . 3 quarts Water ..............1 quart Digest for ten days, then throw the whole in a still, add a pound and a half of common salt and draw off six pints. To this distilled portion put one ounce of bruised Jamaica ginger, and after the liquid has stood a few days longer either decant or filter it. This 1s regarded as a fine skin tonic, and it can also be used upon the hair to advantage. Barley water was used in our grand mothers' times for wrinkles, and there is no reason why it should not be em- ployed today and made up in the same old-fashioned manner. Ancient diree tions for this simple beautifier call for three ounces of pearl barley boiled in a pint of rain water until the glu ten is extracted; then the liquid i trained and is applied directly to th face, atter it has been washed, on vo ] ing to bed. Some of the beanty people of the present day make up this wash with the addition of drops of | tincture of benzoin to a quart, The | barley water o prepared s decloed absolutely proof acain wrinkle: bt | 2 statement by testing it St 1| honey and sour buttermilk are other | brle enemies of woman's youth, and these modest medicaments are availabk to all. The thin-skinned face must always be protected against strong winds, grinding dust, deep sunburn and mch burning over the cook stove if i3 owner wishes to avoid the bane of deep-seated wrinkles.

A Junior-Senior Banquet. Please suggest a suitable way of decorating a hall for a banquet given by the juniors in honor of the seniors, and also what refreshments to serve. A JUNIOR. Decorate with the class colors. Flags, pennants and Japanese lanterns are often a pretty addition when placed just right. If you wish a regu- lar banquet start with soup, then fish, then whatever meat course seems de- sirable, with its accompanying vege- table, then salad, followed by dessert, which should be elther a plain or fancy cream, with coffee, salted nuts and bon-bons. Removing Mourning. Through your columns will you kind- ly inform me the best way for a gen- tleman to leave oft mourning? Should he leave 1t all off at once, or gradually start in to wear colored tles while still wearing mourning? Is it proper to wenr the same suits after the mourn- ing band has been removed? C. 1%, In taking off mourning it is perfeet ly coriect to wear colored ties and | color in the linen, as many men wear black suits who are not in mourning Card Etiquette.
