Linen Tablecloths.
A good many people are going] back to linen tablecloths, but here comes the question of pads to pre- vent the heat of plates Trum reach- ing the Labic.
If separate pads are used, they usually slip out of position and de- feat their own object. But there is now a folding table-pad, made to fit the table top or any part of it, which can be used with or without a cloth.
The beat-proof board is covered with washable leather cloth that is pleasant to the eye; and an ingenti ous device enables it to be folded y quite small when not in use.
Trolley. Service.
You can have the service trolley fitted with a similar pad so that the surface may not be marked by the hot tea-pot and water-jug.
Talking of trolleys, there is a zew. type that not only has side flaps to turn it into a tea-table, but also flanges which, when the flaps are down, prevent the china and glass from slipping off.
The flanges disappear when the trolley is converted into a tea-table, fitting into grooves and leaving the
table quite smooth.

use of only good powders. ́As with
all cosmetics, cheap, highly-scented preparations not only gives unsatis- factory results, but they are de- finitely harmful to the skin.
Make-up must suit the colouring of the wearer and as the best pow- (ders are usually made in five or six shades there should be no difficulty in finding the right one. You must study your type and when you find the powder that soothes your skin and makes it look its bast, keep to it. As a general rule the blonda with a very fair skin needa a na- |tural tint, while the owner of dark- er colouring will find a warmer tone more suitable. For the older women I recommend a creamy pink shade.
Powder must never be applied. unless the skin is perfectly clean Foundation cream is the best for powder. After cleansing the face. and neck, pat the cream in, then powder lightly. To apply if evenly, always use a puff made of lamb's wool or velour. Powder under the eyes is unbecoming, and all traces of it should be removed from the dva- brows, and the brows brushed into
