SLIM STYLES

THE fact that you are obliged to

discriminate

In your choice of styles if you are not-so-slim" in to some extent an advantage, for this! necessity for careful consideration is

a very great help in sequiring the: clothen-sense, that puts you in the ranks of the well-dressed,

If you have so ample n figure that you wirely refrain from certain ex- treme fashions, do nat. allow your- self to be unduly timid or conserva- live, There are many good styles that can be so cleverly modified that they are quite as well suited to the: stout woman as to her slender sister.

Notling Shiny

Never buy shiny materials for your frocks or suits, if you are aiming at 11 slimmer eflect. Dull-surfaced fabric, in black or neutral shade, will prevent your figure being too clearly outlined. For the same object of camouflage, give your proferensa to plain materials rather than to those bearing large patterns.

Stripes. however, are a good choice, especially it you we that they ate narrow, and that their direction is up and down, or diagonal. The effect of stripes strategieally wed is so definitely slim- ming that you will wear your striped spring ult or summer frock with a confidence hitherto unktown,

Skirt-hems, we are warned, are to be worn higher. but use your_di;- criminallon, and, ignoring the decree of shoriness, wear your skirt at the length that seems to look right for and that will not be extremely

If you are decidedly round in lace. be wise and pass by the very tiny, brimious hot. If you are tall in pro- portion to your inches, choose a mo- del that is wide rather than high. and, should you be both plump and shart you will find Unt à hat with some height puts, you in love with your looks.

is an important item in or gloves, far from disguising plump- every hurne and deserves the most creful treatment if it is to have a. tong and useful life. This is speculty true just now owlag to the rislon cost of new material.

When buying new linen hold up to the light so that any desible knots or broken threads will be rendily seen.

Note also that the threads in rst quality linen criss-cross evenly and run straight across from one side to the other.

Another test for good linen is to give it a sharp tug in alternate direc- tions without tearing it.

Good union cloth which is len mixed with hemp is splendid for sheets owing to its wearing qualities. To test its quality, fold it over and then run the finger-nail along the ecease which will appear quite faint when the fabric is again opened out

the material is a good one. Although linen ran be guaranteed not to shrink it is advisable to allow two inches in the yard should there be no guarantee. Even a good quali- ty fabric will not give the best service unless treated carefully afterwards, and this especially applies to washing and Ironing.

When washing Inen, choose pure mild soap and wash in a heavy Jather. Squeeze the soap through the linen instead of rubbing it as this treatment is llable to roughen the de. Heate fibre. Do not-aze. too much blue and certainly no starch, and f the weather permits, bleach the linen afterwards on the lawa, Removing Stains

If table linen is always to appear spotless and

equal to new it will naturally require occasional attention ...to remove any unsightly staing.

Tea stalas should first be smeared with glycerine and after the affected, port has been spread over a basin, pour boiling water through 10 from a height. Coffee stains will also res pond to the same treatment--but glycerine need not be used.

Fruit marks should, however, be aouked for an hour or two in milk before bolling wuter ไป pquired through them while stains caused by chocolate should be sprinkled with powdered

boraz and zooked.. for twenty minutes before being treated in a similar manner to coffee stains- Remember that stains will be re- moved more eusly if they are treated immediately they occur.

Try Simmered Sausages

Most women connect sausages with breakfast or supper, allied to the fry- ing pan or grit. It is interesting to note the different method-almaner- ing-employed by vur American cousins, and from which they con- coct the following appellsing lun- chéon dishes!

Place required number of catonpes la pan of bolling water and simmer for about 10 minutes. Remove to ashet and arrange around a petal- shaped flower made of halved poors filled with cranberry, red-currant, or other such sweet relish und decorato with parsley,

In the use of, evening frocks, you may score ever your slender, sisters by having neek and arms just nicely rounded. B3ul, supposing that you have exceeded this degree of plump- ness, be discreet and have long sleeves to your frock, or wear-ons of those becoming sleeved coatees,

Choose your clothes cleverly, and you need never suffer from the over- stout complex. Let the dress and style help you to be slim.
