Plan jumpers and cardigans, Į either old or new, may be much Improved by simple touches of embroidery in brightly coloured wool.
An effective trimming for a plain cardigan is made by several rows of darning stitches running close together, giving the appear- ance of a narrow stole, round the neck and down each side of the front. For a V-necked jumper a single or double row of chain- stitch, about one inch from the inside edge, all round the neck, is sufficient to relieve the plainness.
A conventional flower or two may be embroidered on the front. The little touch of colour gives distinction to things which Took dull and ordinary without it.
THE "ROOFLESS" HAT
Paris.
A "roofless" hat, consisting sim- ply of a band of loosely-knitted wool slipped over the head to keep the hair in place is a new fashion for country wear in France.
The hats are in dark colours, with, sometimes, a strip of bright- ly-coloured wool running through the centre.-Reuter.

Back Exercises A Great Help.
The secret of being able to re- lax and rest thoroughly lies in pliability of the backbone.
The greatest area of, congestion often lies in that section of your back from the shoulder blades down to the waistline. When you have settled down onto your spine, this section of it becomes rigid and affects the nerves of your stomach and whole digestive track. Moreover, circulation is affected and your whole body feels the re- sult.
Here are some good exercises for this part of the back:
