Dressmaking Series No. 2 Success of Home-Sewed Gown Depends on Lines

AFTER ail, the rntjsst Imtortani factor aixtut clothes is ihslr lines. These being imiessive--ly'graceful, the garment can hardly fail o£ success, though tii quality of material, color and nicety &i lin? iiih contribute. The idea that the loose, straight gowns or robes have no “Unes - ' is a mistaken one, as you will agree if you note the difference in the aje pe&rarice o£ gowns of this type •worn by the well set up, trimly cor.seted woman and those of careiess figure with unrestrained hips and protruding abdomen. In any case, a lining Is the first consideration, and except-eometimes in washable frocks, a lining, if not always an essential, is an advantage as it assures -correct placing of the shoulder seams and belt line- . Fortunately, linings provided with snaps or hooks and eyes can be purchased ready' made in thin silk or silk and.cotton and in bbtfk or white, so It is not worth while to bother making them. If the size Is correct, it is rarely necessary to alter them at all, as they car© made to measure. *. * The majority of women have slight deformity, one shoulder higher than the other, one hip or one shoulder blade mere pronounced, or "somo other defect. Generally some Tittle trick of dressmaking can be ;turned to concal it. it- Round shoulders .cause the dress £to drag down in front, a difference "in hips, to droop at one -side, eta, etc. But in any case, try first using a lining, and then the outside, e;ut to normal measurements, making what adjustments may be found necessary' at the waistline, lengthening the bodice or hoisting tip the skirt at one point or another till the shoirider. "waist-and hemlines are perfect? The'chance- are that the defects in figure will be entirely concealed. _ The line from the ears -to the shoulders is a woman's best line, so the shoulder line of a bodice should be given particular attention.

Summer Care of Baby Clothing Must Be Light, Airy and Comfortable

EDITOR’S NOTE—This i the fifth of a series of articles on summer care of babies, prepared especially for The Times reader* l>y the United States Pub--lie Health Service. A -LITTLE baby’s skin .is very tender, and if he is handled roughly he will be made very uncomfortable. All clothing should be drawn off and on over—hin feet. Baby’s ‘compiete dress consists of a band, shirt, diaper; skirt, dress and bootees, none of which should be heavy or stiff. Add a little short jacket for cool mornings and evenings. When he is a few months old all his clothing may be taken off for a few minutes in the middle of a hot summer day, and he may be allowed to roll and play on the bed. Fancy garments have no place in a little baby’s wardrobe. For the first few weeks of his life he does little .but eat. sleep and grow. He needs many clean and very simple clothes. Ptarched garments and laces about the neck may irritate his tender skin and cause him much discomfort. The irritations are sometimes hard to heal. Clothing Needs ’ Baby should have three flannel ab dominal Viands of soft, white, unhemmed flannel. 14 to 18 inches wide —wide enough to protect the abdomen and not wide enough to wrinkle. They should go once and a half around, lap across the front and pin at the side. After the cord Is healed the first bands may be replaced by three knitted ones, whose lower part Is made of wool and their upper part of cotton. If made with shoulder straps and a tab to pin to the diaper they will not -slip 1 around"' baby’s chest and make him • uncomfortable. In hot weather all cotton or silk shirts may be worn. They should fit smoothly, and may lap or button in front. Three pairs of bootees, three pairs of merino or cashmere stockings (for cold weather) and three soft woolen blankets are required. Four dozen diapers, half twentyfour and half thirty-inch square, are convenient. For the first few weeks, if the weather is not hot, eighteen-inch diapers will do. _ diapers should be put into a covered pail of cold water to which borax has been added. Later they should be washed with pure soap, boiled, rinsed thoroughly (but not blued); soap and bluing are very irritating to baby's skin. :Io is urine: a soiled or wet diaper should never be reused without being washed. Dry in the' sun "and press with a hot iron. Other Clothes Eight slips are required, six pure white ones and. two “company” ones. The every-day ones should be cut by :t kimono-sleeve pattern, with a tape run through a facing about the neck and sleeves. They may be ( twenty-one to twenty-seven inches long, never more. The “company” ones may have bishop sleeves and some embroidery: ut set-in sleeves are hard to put on a little baby. Four light flannel kirtsjj cut princess style, should be worn under the

At this meeting the Scientich Club smoke abatement ordinance will be presented to the manufacturers for consideration.

For cool mornings, baby needs three short kimono-sleeve jackets made of white flannel and closely knitted or crocheted; loose stitches or scallops catch on baby’s fingers. For sleeping, four nighties or sleep ing bags of white flannel are necessary. Draw tapes through the hem and the sleeves of the nighties will keep baby’s hands warm. Sleeping hags are made thirty-three inches long and twenty-seven wide, opening and buttoning down the front. Baby can be changed without taking him out of the hag. A wrap and hood for outdoor wear may be made like a sleeping bag of eiderdown or flannel. At four months the corners may be opened to let out baby's hands, and when he begins to walk, the hag may lie made into a coat. Touch all garments, particularly woolen ones. eheok to make sure that they are warm and dry before putting them on baby. Useful hints in raring for babies arc given in the final article.

CORNS Lift Off with Fingers \LLy

Doesn't hurt a bit! Drop a little “Freezone” on an aching corn, instantly that corn stops hurting, then shortly you lift it right off with fingers. Truly! Your druggist sells a tiny bottle of "Freezone” for a few cents, sufficient to remove every hard corn, soft corn, oi com between the toes, and the calluses. without soreness or irritation. —Advertisement.

I'pr.-r,

LETTER FROM RETTV STOKLKY TO HER FRIEND, ALICE HAMILTON. Gracious goodness. Alice: Your last letter made mo think you were a ieaj grown-up young lady. Os course I know that both of ua have grown up. but I hope your family Is more aware of the fact than mine is—and me a real live authoress, even If that isn’t a grammatical sentence. I made a grammatical ':p the other day and Vera pi k u , up --ht before a room full of people, “Betty, you'll have to speak more grammatically than that if you want to be a successful writer.” Quick as thought I answered, “Oh, I don't know, I don't have to speak grammatically; I just have to write grammatically'.” Kir Georg” Fortestjue told me he thought that was the smartest thing he had heard in many moons. He didn't sty “many moons" because h- is English you know. That night Vera told me she thought I was very fresh and that little girls should be seen and not heard in the drawing room Between you and me, Alice, 1 think Vera would like to be Lady Fortesque, but she has got as much chance of being it as you have. I think he comes here be cause ] amuse him. Isn't 't -ir ."co th.it sisters are such cats? From what you write me about your sister Ltslie, she seems to think she is still “It'' in your family', and I know that I'll be nothing at all In mine until Vera Is married. By the wav, if your Karl Whitney conies over her'- this summer are you going to tell him that I know about the pearls? Isn't it grand, Alice, to have a perfect! wonderflul secret like that? It makes your life Just one series of thrills. Export Explosion Every morning when I wake up I wonder if the secret wijl be found out today for, of course, you know that some day Leslie’s husband is going to fin l out that thos< pearls are. real and then there is going to be a regular dynamite explosion In your family. I don't blame you for wanting to ne on this side of the ocean when it starts. From what you wrote me in your last letter, I think if you really want to marry Karl Whitney we can get him engaged to you while he Is over here where your slater can’t Inter sere. 1 know my sister won’t, because she Is so engrossed in trying to hook Lord George that sha can’t think of anything else. Speaking of I/Ord George, what, do you think ne asked me the other day? He came up on the terrace where I was sitting in the hammock, seated himself in a ehair and looked at me

You art* nothing like our flappers, don’t you know.” “No,” I answered emphatically, "I am not a flapper, but Sister Vera is Sne is the kind of a girl they call flappers over there.” He looked at me a moment and then began to laugh. "You are spoof ing me," ho said, "but at that you are a bright one, throwing your weight around this way." (That is English slang.) Wouldn't it be nice, Alice, if whn your Karl Whitney comes over here I could borrow Lord George for a Jittle whilo from Vera? I'm not a real live authoress for nothing, you know. 8o glad you are coming and realty hepe that no one will find out about the pearls until after you iiavt left.

or work just part time, and go to school, that certainly would be worth while, even though it meant your clothes could not be quite as expensive. If you could not go to school even if you stopped, I should think it would be better for you to keep on working, rather than let your mother bear all the burden. 2.

I think that might be permitted without hurting you. A girl never is too young to have boy friends. It is “dates” and “beaus’’ to which I object for girls your age.

Now it is up to you to try to mend, your broken marriage as best you can. Or, if you really find it impossible to do that at least stop receiving the at 3 tentions of another man as long as you still are legally a wife. You speak of going with the man you love, but, of course, you could not get a divorce under the circumstances; so I think you had better stop seeing him altogether. a
