Usually this Is the slim, graceful tj ue. But the Dens of any style is always good news, as It means yleiity of variety from which to choose. It ts Interesting to note among the new clothes that the fabric immedi ately suggests the silhouette the drese shall follow. With very few changes of cut, .for Instance, the taffeta frock, which Is as popular as it ever has been, follows the hour-glass lines, nipped waist with tight bodice, and full billowing skirt. It remains for the trim ming. Its combination with organdie, the slashings and puffings of its skirt and sleeves, its color and Its jiattern to give variety. The fundamental lines are the same. Thus, while wholly dif ferent at first sight, a -navy taffeta with paneled overskirt topping another overskirt of tan organdie, generously eyelet-embroidered In brilliant colors, is cut with the same tight bodice that a dark brown taffeta with hairline 13s mSm a stripe of silver gray shows, though the latter Is untrimmed exoept for large cabbage roses of Self-material on the skirt and a fine antique lace bib collar to aid the old-fashioned look of the frock. The very same pattern could be employed for a silver gray taffeta with apron panel, fichu collar and cuffs of eyelet-embroidered sheer or gandie edged with fine aiet lice. The Bkirt in this frock is puffed over the hips. Organdies and dotted Swisses follow the taffeta lead. The same thing concerning material dictating lines might be said of the crepe de chine and canton crepe frocks. Chemise lines with wide saxb Mousing the frock at a low waistline, a deep cut in the front to waistline turning back In revere or tied together at a rounded neck and filled with self-material of a contrasting vestee is tli.e story of the silk crepe! Agaiti,' there are enough variations to deceive one that the silk crepe has many styles. There are floating panels, parts of overskirt that loop under the hem, set in fullness at the hips, embroidery to suggest a two-piece dress, but funda mentally the straight, easy-lined sll- ght ILL ;v.,: ,: ."h,;, '-tf.ML rAotmrmm r"m r wM The frock to toft shows the pottibUltle of Urn ul anil.

Are You One Uf D' fcBPlTE domestic science schools, books and magazines, there are many women who are very igno rant on the subject of feeding' a fam ily. They don't know what or how to buy; they don't know how to cook properly and tastily what they buy. Feeding the family right has been stressed time after time, but still hourfewlvea go their own sweet way. What a family should have Is here set forth according to Farmer's Bui' letln-No. 808: A man who does fairly hard muscu- j . houette holds good here. Much Is done with color and trimming to change the silk crepe frock. Bead embroidery, patterned borders done by hemstitching, th stitching cut into picot-edged petals and" backed with contrasting color, brilliant fkclngs. !slloredbos and cockades of self- tone ribbon applied with the pre vision of a printed fabric, close sll over strlpifig dorfe with alternate' rows Mining brown Balkan trt. conft- tl dlfk rut fro"m matrlA.it or if - ma - ttprlal and mid on clow ilh btd rntirs. plrotM" band nf iwlf-matiTlal phMfJ on th bta npifttl. appMM acrorfiion-platM flounren at t aiflen - lh are but a few of the rharmn wilrh th ("Im-Hnvvl p frork. alostb roil) and batfst and rhiffm, faarfnatM tbi eaaoo. cord. , fbllgtlelph) e e of the Cooks Who Can't Cook?

' K Scum Finish. When stitching a seam It Is very helpful to turn bark when the end of the sekm Is reached and stitch over tha previously made stitches for about on Inch, This t find a very great help, as It relieves the strain on the end of th seam and pravonU ripping. To Mark Stockings. Before wearing new stockings put a mark of some kind with colored em broidery cotton at the top of each and. with another color mark the next pair A vary (mull mark at the tops of stockings will not make much differ ence and then they can easily be matched after washing.
