NEW FURNITURE CAN TURN SINGLE ROOM INTO A HOME
‘Disguise’ Is Perfected in Many Pieces BY HELEN WEL6HIMER NEA Service Writer NEW YORK, Aug. 18.—If you are a business girl who has been living in the third floor back and wishing you had money enough to have a whole apartment of your own, cheer up! You needn’t entertain your friends in the general reception room any longer. You can stop wasting your energy on a chest of drawers that stick the minute a cloud comes into the sky. You may have a whole apartment—living room, bedroom, dining room and kitchen—all within the space of one room, lurnished with exactly the things you like. And you can do it for $325! The new pieces of furniture are designed in such a way that they will completely disguise the fact that your living room is a sleeping place by night, and a quickbreakfast room in the morning. Studio Couch Is Essential The first thing to do in furnishing your room is to buy a studio couch. This couch comes equipped with pillows to match. There is one type that also has three very large cushions for the top. If you are wise you won't leave the couch as it is, though. You will get some of the old twill that us as attractive as it is inexpensive and make a couch cover and pillow covers. One pattern, called the seasons, is unusually charming. It comes in green, plum or cherry, all combined with white. This couch is a bed by night and a couch by day. Draperies for the window should be of the same material as the couch cover. If you prefer you may use glazed chintz, which comes in gay green, orange, yellow or plum, as bright as a color from a brand new rainbow. It will give a carnival dash to your room. Let the Sunshine In Swinging rods for your draperies have a way of making a room more pretentions as well as keeping the sun from fading your colors, for you can sweep the draperies away and let the sunshine in when you want to. The next essential purchase is a secretary. One with plenty of drawers in the lower part, and glass doors for the shelves at the top. A breakfast service for six, consisting of thirty-two pieces, in colors that match your room, should be placed on the shelves. It will add a debonair touch to the room as well as solve the cupboard problem. One large, comfortable chair, upholstered, is essential. A gatewing chair with arms is, too. The secretary calls for a straight backed chair. A later purchase should be a chest of drawers and a mirror. Three Lamps Are Needed Don’t try carpeting your room, for remember that you are a transient and may change apartments. A rug is a much better purchase. A reversible rug, with a heather mixture, which is really a hit-or-miss pattern in red and brown, lends warm tones without intruding on your general color scheme Three lamps are needed for such a room: a floor lamp, a rough pottery lamp with a parchmeht shade for the table, and a fat brass one with a handle on it, and a plaid shade for the secretary. These shades, whose checkered light is the very latest thing, take their challenge from the shawls and blankets that long ago learned how interesting a criss-cross pattern can be. Dickens’ silhouettes make interesting adornment for the walls. Avoid crowding too many pictures together. Remember that, you aren’t trying to conduct an art gallery. Scatter Books Around If you want to add an especially swanky note to your room have a gay tray with a fat pitcher and matching glasses on your table. One new set is splashed with audacious polka dots, red and yellow and blue, that remind you of circus day and toy balloons. A desk set and a matching waste paper basket, made from one of the new papers, is inexpensive and interesting. A hanging bracket, of green, with a piece of Italian pottery that holds some foliage, is an attractive note. Or a witch ball holding a fern is just as good. You may be able to have a radio and a table to hold it. too. without exceeding your allowance. Don’t forget the electric grill for the occasional Sunday night supper and the every-morning breakfast is very important. Scatter your favorite books and odds and ends around and you are ready to fasten your knocker on the door and hope someboy will pull your latchstring. MRS. STOOPS TO MARRY CHICAGOAN Mrs. Ann Katherine Stoops and Francis A. Pattison, Chicago, will be married at 8 tonight at the home of the bridegroom’s nephew, Howard Webb Pattison. and Mrs. Pattison, 152 West Fifty-second street. The Rev. J. G.

—Your Child--Don’t Overdress Your Baby in Hot Weather Spells
BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON Do not overdress the baby in hot weather. Babies always should be dressed according to climate, season an dthe particular condition of the moment. It is appalling to think of the way we used to swathe babies in wool in summer time. Bands, shirts, flannel petticoats and half the time a blanket to boot, around their miserable little perspiring bodies, killed more than one otherwise healthy child. When they caught cold, due to overheating, we decided they were insufficiently clad and piled on more things. On a hot summer day a baby doesn't need anything more than his diaper and the partly woolen band that straps over his shoulders. Anew baby must wear his flannel winder until the navel scar is healed. It is just as well to ask the doctor about dressing the new baby. Soft and Loose A baby’s dress should be soft and loose around neck and arms, with no gathers to irritate or chafe. He won't need shoes or stockings on a hot day, but on cool ones his legs should be covered. It depends, however, on his age. Cf he is trained to bare legs, and is old enough, his socks can stay in the drawer a good part of the time. Much depends on the mother’s judgment. She will know the way to suit the clothing to overnight changes, or the sudden drops in temperature after a storm. Need Constant Warmth One thing to be guarded against is a draft. A nice summer breeze blowing gently all around is a different thing from a direct wind in a room on a cool, damp morning, particularly if the baby plays on the floor. Porches are tricky things, too, and the baby should be placed

where no strong wind can blow on him. No one ever has fathomed the secrets of a draft, but even a wisp of air of different temperature blowing upon one part of the body usually causes trouble. It is change of temperature in summer that needs to be watched more closely than the heat itself. Warm rooms cool off at night, and that is when the mother needs to be alert and ready to put another blanket over the small form. The partially woolen abdominal band should be in place night and day, for the same reason. The bowels need to be protected and the band keeps the abdomen at an even temperature. 1 Linen or silk shirts, or shirts of wool and linen of light weight are better for summer weather than woolen ones. Little knitted coats are convenient to make up the extra w r armth when needed. Never set a baby on grass or ground that is shady arid damp. Warm dry ground is all right for a little while! but it is better to be on the safe side and keep a comfort or blanket under him if he is very young. C. D. A. TO HEAR PRIEST'S ADDRESS The Rev.

What’s in Fashion?
A Changed Silhouette Directed By AMOS PARRISH
T\JEW YORK, Aug. 18.—You’re going to look taller this fall —if you want to. Which is certainly good news for lots of short and stout women. Not bad news, either, for the already tall—because there are many tricks of dress to minimize height if you don't want to look taller. But most women like to look a little taller and slimmer, so we're sure most of you are going to like the new fall silhouette, which makes you look this way. The sketch shows the way welldressed women are going to look this fall. The way new fall dresses and coats are made causes certain parts of the figures to look longer, certain parts to look slimmer and certain parts to look wider. Which, when put together, gives an effect of added height and slimness. Neckline Is Higher The new fall costume—to start at the top—has a higher neckline. Now all dresses w-on’t have as high a ncekline as the one illustrated. But the fashion-right ones will have necklines higher than the neckline of last fall. One reason why the neckline has become higher is that the waitline has done the same thing. As you can see in the sketch, the waistline has come up about one inch. And a slightly higher neckline makes a better proportion with this higher waistline. Shoulders are going to look wider and more sloping this fall. That’s because of the way fashionable sleeves ai’e made. Many sleeves are raglan or cut in one with the bodice and many set-in sleeves have deeper armholes. And this all slants and widens the shoulder line. Bodice Close Fitting When the waistline stepped up, it rested at a narrower spot in the body. This makes the waistline look smaller. And this is accentuated by the closer fitting bodice that fashionable fall dresses have. Last fall, you remember, the bodice bloused down over the waistline or had a bolero jacket swinging out just at the waistline. And these details made the waistline look wider. Hips look narrower, smoother and more rounded this fall. Last year the fashionable dress usually had a peplum that widened the body at this point. This year the dress is smooth fitting through the hips. Skirts Less Flared Much of the flare has disappeared from skirts. When there is a flare it’s way down low. This straighter line makes the body longer-limbed and taller. The w-ider shoulders make the waistline and hips look narrower by comparison, too. The higher waistline makes the top of the body look shorter—another aid in making a longer-limbed figure. You’ll find these differences of silhouette not only in dresses but in coats, too. Waistlines are higher, bodice sections more fitted, shoulders are wider and fur is put on in ways to enhance this effect. There’s another way you’re going to look different, too. In the way you wear your hat. Last fall it was smart to wear it pushed back

Get Rid of Dandruff in Quick Order BY ALICIA HART Dandruff is a nuisance, besides being a signal that your scalp is not i.i good condition. No well-groomed woman can stand the thought of dandruff dropping like a fine film across her shoulder to malign her meticulous character. Nor does any woman want the bother of-itching that dandruff has a way of bringing in its wake. If you have dandruff and keep on having it. don't complain about how mean nature is, or the summer or anything else. You can get rid of it, if you will. But it takes a strenuous regime of hair care. Make up your mind to go in for this and you'll have a scalp clear as a baby’s. Need Different Tonics There are two kinds of dandruff, one the light, powdery scales, the other the yellowish type. The former usually comes with dry scalps, the latter with oily hair. Both require about the same kind of treatment, only you use different kinds of tonic. For the first type, get a tonic for dry scalps, the latter one for oily scalps. Invest in a fine tooth comb and gently go over your whole scalp, scraping the dandruff loose. Don't scratch it so had you hurt your head. All you need do is to loosen it slightly. Putting on your tonic and massaging does the rest. Use the tonics every night for a week, then give yourself or have somebody else give you a herb shampoo. These come especially prepared for dandruff and are very refreshing in addition. May Cure in Week After you shampoo, use a medicated ointment by applying it to your scalp after parting all the hair out of the way. Then massage your head firmly until it sinks into the scalp. A week’s daily brushing and massage and application of tonic and one shampoo and medicated ointment treatment should see the skids put under your dandruff. It may take much longer to really free the scalp. But keep right on. It can be done. One precaution: Be sure that everything that touches your head during this treatment is absolutely clean, and disinfected. That means your fine comb, your brushes, your finger tips and any bits of cotton you may need to apply the tonic.
