The Neatly Gowned Girl
A clever woman was talk-
ing about clothes at lunch the other
day. Never think that because a wom
an is in business she has lost
in that topic ever dear to the feminine
heart. “You
fact,” she began, “that men just dote
on appearances. Your temper may be
as sunny as a May morning. you may
have all the virtues of angels, the wis
dom of Solomon, your English may
outshine a Princeton professor,
may calculate more quickly than the
lightning's
business
never made a mistake, but all these are
as Dead sea fruit if you wear a trum-
py gown, a hat of last year's vintage
or bair that has not recently made the
acqualntance of shampoo. The girl
with a neat, smart gown, tidy gloves,
who is well coiffed and well shod, will
walk away from you every time, even
if she can't add two and three together,
Since we have to run up against men in
the business world, it Is well to bear
this little idiosyncrasy of theirs in
mind and dress up to your audience.”
The Small Kitehen.
By all means have a small kitchen. A
large kitchen, with a cellar door at one
side, a table at another, a range at an.
other and the sink at still another, re

keeping utensils, one portion of the top
covered with zine and the other half
left plain. Have underneath the top a
baking board which you can easily
pull out. The sink should be pear at

side of the kitchen and be sufficiently
large to hold a barrel of flour, a small
pastry table and a convenient arrange.

hardwood or it may be covered with

Table Damask.
When seletting a cheap or medium

Such a tablecloth will wear better and
