TAILORED
TWEEDS
TO-DAY, we will deal with a tailored tweed suit; and a tailored suit that could be made up for town wear.
In the main drawing at the right the designer shows the plain, classical version of this pattern. This is good in stylo for practically any type of day-time wear, though you can tie it up more specifically with certain occasions by the choice of fabric in which you make it up.
It is essentially, however, a pattern that you can keep by you for years, for it is a good basic cut that will never be out- moded. If you use it now for a thick tweed country suit you can use it again too for a broadcloth best town suit; then next spring work on it once more, using grey flannel. Keep it in mind during sale-time when cruising linens and suiting shantungs are often sold at big reductions in order to clear the stock shelves; then make up your summer sult in a leisurely way while the dark evenings are still here. You'll thus be ready with a main item for your holiday wardrobe, made without rush and bother and at a fraction of the cost you would have to pay, later.
But summer, of course, scems an impossibly long way ahead at the moment, and the immediate need is a warm guit. So let's think of this now in terms of tweed.
You can get quite a satisfactory quality wool tweed-and I expect some of my bargain-spotting readers will be able to find
a suitable odd length on some remnant counter.
Or there's a good wool frieze in an excellent range
of new season's colours.
Leather buttons are good on tweeds, or wooden buttons if you can't get leather.
IMPORTANT point to remember is that any material which is going to be exposed to danipnes should be shrunk before it is cut, so for this at you should shrink both the tweed and the interlin- ing hen. This does not apply to the coat lning.
And in a tailored pattern don't be mean with your tackings. If you've inade lots of dresses and feel that by now you can stitch up the seams without first tuck- ing then don't feel the same way about a tailored gar- ment. For preliminary tacking ensures exactitude, and it's exactitude that makes a tailored suit what it is,
Get the tension of your machine-stitching correct too by trying it first on à email piece of the tweed. It should be a firm, clean line with a medium-size stitch.
IMPORTANT point to remember is that any a tailored sult as well or badly made, and the attention paid to the interlining is mainly responsible for the result. If you follow the directions and over- work the interlining with rows of small stitches you will get a collar and revers that set beautifully. You will be well repaid for the extra time that this may take.

IMPORTANT FACTS ABOUT FEVER
The reason why your stomach rejeels solid foods when you have fever is because your wasted body tissues are crying out for moisture. This makes you desperately thirsty. But very often your weakened stomach cannot retain even the ordinary quid foods. Yet you must bave nourishment to rebuild your exhausted body quickly.
