HOME JOURNAL ‘Wear silk economically ? Yes: SHETLAND WOOL cAs difficult to wash safely as chiffon This delicate sweater of gray Shetland with its stripes of old blue and rose, has been ' washed 11 times with Ivory Flakes and luke warm water. “It is still as soft and fluffy, its delicate colors as fresh, and its shape as true as when I bought it,” says its wearer’s letter. “Hard rubbing or washing with harsh soap would have ruined it.” MANY WOMEN eesist the temptation to own the garments of their hearts’ desire, not be- cause they cannot afford the first cost, but because they are afraid of what may happen to such gar- ments in the washing process. But the problem of washing del- icate georgette, crépe de chine, chiffon—yes, and the finer wool- ens, too, like the sweater in the picture difficult as it is, has been solved for countless women by a simple test. This test may be applied to all soaps oftered for this purpose, whatever their form. Though easy as adding one plus one, this test has provided a real- ly sound basis for the selection of sate soap. Here is the test: Ask yourself: Would I be milling to use this Ce 7 soap on my Jace: I \/ , OR y j ev N & & AZ AL & soar FLA But first consider this safety test Those who apply this thought to Ivory Flakes need seek no further. Why? Because Ivory Flakes is sim- ply Ivory Soap—the same fine white soap which for two generations has befriended the faces of millions of women—-now prepared in petal-thin flakes for the wash-bowl laundering of the most delicate fabrics. The same gentle cleansing proper- ties, purity and mildness of Ivory Soap are found in Ivory Flakes without change. A teaspoonful of Ivory Flakes, in- stant suds; a few moments of dip- ping and squeezing, and this gentle cleansing agent has done its work safely and surely. Economical enough for any kind of laundering, Ivory Flakes has a real margin of safety for the most pre- cious garments you own.

What if he was a prince? What if we had said things about his job in the after-war flush of big talk in general?) We take no pride in consistency, we strange Americans. Besides, it’s a great deal more fun to love a boy than to scoff at a king. So we proceeded whole-heartedly to love the boy and had a fine time doing it. But if this change of heart was characteristic of us as Americans it was still more characteristic of that young man himself, Edward, Prince of Wales, who came to visit us. For it was all his fault, of course. We wouldn't have liked him if he hadn't been likabl. We wouldn't have bellowed and roared at him in public meetings if there hadn’t been something to bellow and roar about: we wouldn't have lined up twenty deep to watch him ride by if the sight of him had not been somehow satisfying and worth the trouble; we wouldn't have devoured every line in the newspapers that recorded his presence among us if the record had not been to our liking.

April, 1923 who is to live life finely must have the ability to see in it something more than its prosaic elements. Riding on a New York bus recently | watched a girl with a brand-new diamond ring on the third finger ol her left hand. Alto- gether unconscious of anybody or any- thing except her own happiness, she sat looking at it. Now, I know what a diamond is prosaic, scientific terms, because I went home and ked it up. A diamond isa form of crystallized carbon which every carbon is ‘‘symmetrically led by four other carbon atoms, arranged at the atom sur- rs of a tetrahedron in such manner that the whole crys ne continuous molecule.’’ That is adiamond. But | ld not consider it particularly worth while to disturb tl gy i thoughts by tel ing het that She w iS Se¢ re liamond something that all the scientists who ever drew of carbon atoms well might er She was set re visible The diamond was to her a sact ent and s\ nseen reality.

His life had made him profoundly distrustful of all im- pulses; he could remember too well how, five years before, other impulses had tossed him about, their helpless victim. Suppose Miss Burton had been in het place that morning, instead of at home, nursing a summer cold. Wouldn't that have changed everything? He was dis- posed to think so. He would never have seen the letter itself then. It would have come to him through the medium of Miss Burton’s voice, low, even, giving him one of her matchlessly concise summaries. He could imagine just about what he would have heard From Mr. Hamby, in Blessington He incloses the tax bill, and I am send- ing a check, as usual He has had an inquiry about your house there, and hopes to be able to submit a definite fh offer next week.

His eyes clung to the road ahead. It swept on before him in a long, graceful curve. He knew what lay beyond that turn. And suddenly what he was so soon to see was trans formed in the eves of mind and heart, that had for so long looked upon it as upon a place of bitter memories, into a shrine. “Stop here!"’ he cried so ibruptly, in a tone so vibrant with contmand, that the driver threw on his brakes and ro t the car to a shrieking Yy re of feet fre t| ‘Hunh?”’ he said, staring ‘Just wait for me here,” said Ramsay. “I'll leave my bag. I don’t know how long I'll be.” Sure. Suit yourself. Ramsay walked on around the turn alone. The road he had been following bore sharply to the left, but from it a narrow lane, all soft and dusty underfoot, invaded on either side by creeping bush and vine, went on and out along a point of high land that, dividing just here a wide and sandy beach, carried the young woods out into the sea itself. } I He had reason to know this lane. He had helped to make widening an old path that the feet of children and of | lovers, seeking the quiet béauty of the Point's far end, had trodden through long years He knew whither it would lead him ilready his eyes were searchi y, through trec trunks and thinning leaves, for the first white gleam of the house that he and M irgaret had built He saw his house at last and, seeing, caught his breath.

N A TORRID 1 Jerusalem a woman stood looking through the nar row window slit which ad- mitted a dole of air and a wan ghost of light into her prison cell. Her eyes searched the prison court and wandered about the spaces around the council houses that reared themselves close under the towered city wall. Then at last they turned upon the Temple. Her search was fruitless; not one token of life had she seen, unless one might except the little whirlwinds of dust that now and then from the highway and went spinning like dervishes, to be lost among the indigo shad- ows. The woman drew a deep breath and covered her face with her hands. rose But in another instant she was listening intently. Her sensitive ears had caught the sound of feet pad-padding through the dust. Eagerly she looked again. And this time life had appeared. Through the Water Gate in the city wall a boy had passed, to follow the road that ran beside the prison He came step- ping ludicrously high as the road dust scorched the soles of his bare feet and rose from their mpacts to powder hi very sloshing of water in tatters She ind cling to his could hear the the pots hang- eyelashes ing from his shoulders.

Breathlessly the woman watched him turn it over and over in his fingers, watched his face, seared with a great scar from eye to chin, break into a grotesque smile. Without a word or a single glance through the embrasure the fellow turned the beast’s head and urged it back into line. ‘“Water!”’ she called after him. ‘‘Water!” But now the caravan had passed. Its clamor grew fainter; its dust hung thick. ‘Water!’ she cried chokingly. her head drooped hopelessly. thrust out in mute appeal. “Who calleth?’’ It was like a silver note after that clamoring discord, this answering call in her own tongue. The woman’s eyes opened in glad amazement. She was looking straight into the coal-black eyes of a girl whose travel-stained robe flowed carelessly open to reveal a supple nudity in golden brown. The rounded cheeks were marked with tiny beauty scars and golden pendants hung from the lobes of her ears. Upon her head was pressed a silver band, from under which ebony hair fell about her shoul- ders. A single jasmine blossom had been thrust into her hair and now wilted in the heat. Her eyes « losed, Her bare arm was still LOSE beside the girl knelt a heaving dromedary, its hump seat spread with purple, fringed with silver bells that tinkled softly as the beast’s heavy breatl At the dromedary’s 1ead towered a bearded young Arabian, ac ross his bac k | oth.

That roundish there against the first window was Humpty Dumpty’s; the turned-up one was Jill's, of course; the straight little pretty one was Miss Muf- fett’s; and all those pert affairs sticking out of the buttonholes of the shoe were no others than the noses of the children of the Old Woman Who Lived in a Shoe. The only nose that was not plastered right against a window was Simple Simon’s, and the only reason that Simple Simon’s nose was not there was because Simple Simon hin nose

were the sun, and not the rain, that was beating down on his head. But why was he holding that long thick rope so carefully in his right hand? And what was that tiny object on the walk to which his eyes were directed so intently? Why, that object seemed to be a purse, a very, very small pul ( ()} , now we | now wh it poo!

To be accepted in the inner circles of the idle rich was until very recently the w/tima Thule of all our social strivers. We have given our readers a wonderfully graphic picture of this phase of development in Mrs. Van Rensselaer’s series of articles entitled Our Social Ladder. Mhere will be more articles in this series based on researches beyond Mrs. Van Rensselaer’s experiences and immediate associations. These articles provide a detailed record of the rise and fall of the \merican aristocracy so called. They reveal how women of extraor dinary intelligence and ingenuity strove with all their powers and their wealth toward that coveted place where they could be infinitely graceful or spectacular in their idleness, where their every gesture would arouse the jealousy of their less fortunate sisters. Butterflies ! Lilies of the field! American Beau ties! Orchids! The glamour of being expensive and useless! Ex quisitely polite culture ! Birds of paradise Ornamental vapidity ! Snobbery for its own A gospel of waste! These were the coveted hall marks—to be patronizing and condescending to the great unwashed; to give alms vicariously through fashionable organized charities: sake ! to deplore the spread of education and refinement; to g that the way t ild and cushion religion so a shining hereafter led only along a primrose path Phere are still a multitude of this sort cluttering up the premises, but prestige and importance are swiftly slipping from their grasp rhe heights that they climbed to have crumbled beneath their feet. Elegant sloth has become fassé as an attribute of distinction. The worker and not the drone is finding her name and activities recorded in the society columns and on the front pages of our newspapers. \s this is being written there has just been concluded in Washing ton a meeting in behalf of women in industry that was called by the United States Department of Labor The welfare of the working mi } } eetin st] fferent el n the le é t of 1) | Nir Medil lof 0 , kee et g enti women f ea 1 end—that job.

C. T. Women of great wealth and social position and women of no means at all were delegates. There were a score of women of the type of Mrs. McCormick and Mrs Gifford Pinchot, just as there were full delegations of factory women had yu come trom nine-hour-a-day work on some JOD. But the purpose of this meeting was not to glorify the prerogative of free and enfranchised American women to labor side by side with and pull in the same industrial harness with men. Practically every peaker at that meeting recognized that women’s interest in industry was at best only temporary, a stop-gap between whatever girlhood Marriage, the home and the future generation were the supreme essentials to focus on for the welfare of the race and the nation behind her and marriage There was practical unanimity of conviction that married women should not be drafted from their home-keeping and their child-rearing Chere seemed almost no speakers who did not feel that the woman in She Ladies’ HOME JOU RNAL BARTON W.CURRIE, Sditfor American Women of Today and Yesterday * nw ey Qo? 9 PS oan cs ctcscecccncsccecacccscceceases POP = PENG industry was an evil, although probably for the present a necessary evil. One speaker stated that out of a canvass of working women who had families, three-fifths of their children were under five years of age. Could these women give any greater service to the nation than caring for their children? Can we have a wholesome society without maintaining the family unit intact? Maternity must no longer be regarded as a function, but as a profession. The family is preserved primarily by the wife. There was not an utterance at this meeting that bore on the subject of ‘‘coddling’’ the weaker sex. It was a discussion of woman's job, whether that job was motherhood, the manual labor of the scrubwoman or the leadership in a great organization of women. Mrs. Alice Ames Winter, president of the General Federation ot Women’s Clubs, presided. A speaker who had worked since she was nine years old told how the light of education had come to her from a clubwoman.

HEN my father died there were only three symphony orchi tras in America—the New York Symphony, the New York Philharmonik fron which Tho forme | } Bo Or Q " hy | } named was supported by Colonel Higginson and was the only one whose members received weekly salaries for a season of thirty weeks, meeting every morning for rehearsal and de- voting themselves exclusively to the playing of symphonic music. It was the first so-called permanent orchestra founded in America. The New York orchestras at that time played only a very small number of symphony concerts, for each of which they had about three re- hearsals. Their members added to their earn- ings by playing in odd concerts, opera, the theater — in fact, in almost anything that they could find Poday the New York Symphony is splen- lidly maintained as a permanent orchestra through the generosity of its president, Mr Flagler; the Philharmonic is similarly sup- ported by liberal contributions from various sources; and orchestras in Philadelphia, Chi- cago, Detroit, Minneapolis, Cincinnati, St Louis, San Francisco and Los Angeles each use from a hundred thousand dollars a year upward, donated by citizens, over and above the receipts from the sale of tickets. Without uch subsidies these ore hestras could not exist for even though the concerts are crowded the expenditures are uch greater than any pos- sibl receipts AINS NEWS 5 I wonder how many of the conductors o these orchestras, who all receive generous sal ri ind | tions on which they are now so solidly built \fter my father’s death I was elected at the ie of twenty-three conductor of the New York Symphony Socicty.

The right way is so simple and easy that even a novice can master it at the first attempt. Thousands have adopted it. And more and more women are coming to its use each day, and dropping the old method of mani- curing—a method which they now know to be not only tedious and time-wasting, but to be actually s7sky, as well. When you manicure the right way, there is no probing around the delicate nail root with sharp instruments of any kind—no dangerous and disfiguring cutting of the cuticle. You just dip an orange wood stick W rapped with cotton in Cutex Cuticle Remover (a cleansing, antiseptic liquid developed by Science for the proper care of the nails), work it under the nail tips and around the base of the nails, gently pressing back the cuticle. Then, rinse the finger tips in water, and wipe ott the loosened flakes ot dead skin and surplus cuticle.

\ 6 The truth was that James cut a sorry figure before his father-in-law. He was fearfully embarrassed, and merely explained that the house was too lonely now without Jane ind he had decided, he admitted rather abruptly, to return to his old home and live with his Aunt Sarah. ‘‘She’s getting old and needs me,”’ he concluded lamely. “We need you as well,”’ said Mr. Northrup angrily. ‘I think under the circumstances that Mrs. Northrup and self should at least have been consulted.” James agreed hurriedly that Mr. Northrup had a just rievance, but positively declined to return to the house he had been occupying and grew almost panicky in his refusal e with the Northrups. It was James who concluded the painful interview with the pretense of a pressing case in 1 ind who reall ‘snuk out”’ like a whipped hound Perhaps Nappy did not notice him in his hasty departure perhaps, al he mistook Mr. Northrup’s almost apoplecti rage for cringing abjectness. Not that this matters in the least Nappy had never been distinguished for drawing a rict line between things as they reall happened ind as he Tas oe Maccabi Nap \ yul at ( tedtot employe! H herefor onsiderat« failed to enlighten a most in t nilgh ninqgu ing public about Mrs. Northrup’s frequent calls at the office, nor did he mention the fact that as she went in the front door he pushed a little button on the wall three times as a signal of dire disaster and James thereupon made a hasty exit by a side door—though once, in an emergency, he could not make it and hid in a dusty closet an hour and a half. T WAS after this fourth and unsuccessful call that Mrs. Northrup met Miss Julia face to face on Main Street and cut her dead. The incident thereafter was closed. James ceased to be Jane Northrup’s husband and became over- night a Stimson again. Just moving back to his old home served to remind New Concord that James was the son of its beloved Doctor Jim, who took all the first prizes at college and whose tomb- stone, raised by popular subscription, bore the words ‘‘He Died That New Concord Might Live.’’ It served also to remind them that he was grandson of the man who had first made New Concord famous and really done more than anyone else to put the town on the map.

The Ladies HOME JOURNAL for Betty. In her quiet little way she somehow managed to give him the stimulus he needed, restored with every visit a remnant of his torn and tattered self-esteem. He continued to go often to see her, took her to drive, had Miss Sarah ask her to dinner. Long before the summer was over he discovered that Betty was dearer to him than anything else in life—was as prec ious as dreams ol his mot her. He really never asked her to marry him. One summer night when they were sitting on the little side porch there was a long silence between them, ind then James suddenly dropped on his knees and buried his face in her lap. He was nearer crying than he had been since his boyhood. Oh, the sweetness of her, the dearness ! Betty patted his head and put her cheek for a moment iwainst his hair. They clung to each other as if fearing to be torn apart. The moment all the sweeter, all the mort poignant, that it had been postponed these dozen years Was “T’ve always wanted you, always needed you,” said James finally. “We've wanted each other,’’ said Betty tremulousl, The never mentioned Jane the or ever lames his lite wit!

Betty was a part of his inner consciousness, his soul’s complement —his blessed, his beloved, his own little Betty! They were married without any fuss or feathers. Betty's trousseau was the simplest possible—nearly all made at home by herself and her mother, who had given up sewing for others at James’ request. They were not married in church or in the little front parlor of the cottage, as they had first planned, but out under a tree in the Harris back yard in the warm sunshine of an October afternoon. The tree was a stately hickory that had been touched by the frosts and turned a glorious glowing russet. The sunshine crept gently down between the leaves and spread a glory of golden light about the little group of friends gathered there that this man might be married to the woman he had chosen. To James the golden light was like a benediction. was a gift of God as truly as the sunshine was. Betty She was in Pe se a ae

By laying stress on the supposition that drunkards could get no more liquor the advocates of the Bratt system tried to make it appear to be a great temperance reform.

So many of them want it now that a recent referendum vote on the question was lost by only fifty thousand. With the women voters the major ity for prohibition was a hundred and fifty thousand. The majority of the men was two hundred thousand against. However, the start has been made.

Their end and motives are the same as ours, but their emphasis on the various motives has been different, and some of them have advanced in a decade a far as we had got after generations of plead ing by American women. In America thx appeal for reform through many years was based entirely on religion and the emotions Its political success began with the widening its appeal to include economic and ind trial conditions.

But in France, where temperance vork was unknown by the masses of the peo ple before 1914, the railroad corporations are already giving it serious attention as a vital matter concerning their own business. The great P., L. and M.—Paris, Lyons and Medi- terranean Railroad Company—one of the biggest systems in Europe, has set a body of experts to work on the problem of what to do with the product of the French vineyards, now that the world is narrowing the market for wines, and the French people are begin- ning to think seriously of drinking less Two of the new temperance organizations in France are those of railway employes and government postal employes. These men have agreed voluntarily to be total abstain ers from liquor.

They are learning through the schools, and their fathers are learning through their trade temperance organizations, such facts as these The people of France are now spending ot hard liquors more than half what they ar paying for wine. The figures from current French government statistics show that th annual expenditures now are 4,061,638,800 francs for hard liquors, 7,678,209,600 francs for wine, 852,888,100 francs for beer, and 680,825,180 francs for cider.

They will soon ask why only a seventh of a billion is spent on agriculture, which is the business of 60 per cent of the population, while over four billions are spent on liquor, which is the chief detriment to the business of all the people They will begin to wonder whether if the figures were reversed some great construc tive agricultural plan might net be worked out for adapting the products of French vineyards to the new uses of a world that is going dry. The main purpose in France at the outset is of course to get rid of liquor. “Tt will be a long time before France will stop growing and drinking wine,” says G. Gallienne, se retary of the Blue Cross Society and dele gate to the world convention at Toronto; but even such a time is not completely be yond the horizon of French temperanc« workers.

Because of soil and cli matic conditions, and because of the small separate holdings of the vineyard owners, the finding of a new use for the grape is mor feasible than the substitution of other crops for the vines. Hence the research work of the French railroads and other business corpora tions and the educational program of the temperance societies “We want,” says Gallienne, ‘“‘some American manufacturers to come to France to demonstrate to our people how the grape juice may be used ona large scale in a product that is nonalcoholic. When we make and sell such a product to the rest of the world the French themselves will gradually begin to drink it instead of their wine.” In Italy, slower in getting under way than France in this matter, a beginning has been made by scientific groups in Rome and Naples to study the effect of daily wine drink- ing upon the mental and physical welfare of the people, and a campaign of education is on to convince a new generation that a change will better equip Italy for the new industrial life of the present and future. Even in Spain and Portugal, the two most backward of the wine-growing countries, there has been a beginning in the creation of sentiment for restriction, and in Spain this first stage of the work has gone so far that the anti-alcoholic groups of the country had their delegates at the Toronto convention In the Big League foe of these significant facts, and many more of similar import, were revealed at that convention, which offered the world the first opportunity it had ever had of tak ing account of stock and really measuring its progress. The measure is an encourag ing thing. Not the least satisfactory thing about it was the fact that the world was ready for such a convention.

The (ase of Iceland T WAS at a conference of the wine-and liquor men at Lausanne that the abduction of Iceland from the prohibition ranks was conceived and the Spanish Government s¢ lected as the moral kidnaper of that island. Iceland voted for complete prohibition in 1908. It was an immediate success, for most of the islanders were total abstainers long be fore the sentiment became crystallized in law The law stood enforced and unquestioned either by Iceland or by outsiders until last summer, when the Spanish Government sent notice to Iceland that unless the island abol ished its prohibition law and imported Spat ish wines Spanish people would be prohibited from buying Iceland’s fish. This was a threat of absolute ruin for the island. Its only prod uct is fish, about five million dollars’ wort] a year, and for generations three-quarter of that product has been sold in Spain. The Icelandic fishermen have not the facilities fo1 curing or packing their fish in a way that would make them marketable in any countr other than Spain. There is, for example, not sufficient timber on the island to make it po sible to pack the fish in wooden boxes, but all the countries except Spain demand that the fish come in boxes.

The endsof these pews may, if the wedding is a large one, be decorated with flowers or roped off ith white satin ribbon; usually it imply understood that the ushers ll reserve the required number of pews. About ten minutes before the time appointed for the ceremony, the Lad S and M two families begin to arrive and are shi to their pews by the ushers.

I worked during that part of the day. In winter I wore a soft, small hat with little trimming—this I always se lected with as much thought for comfort as for style, since my work sometimes necessi tated wearing it for ten or twelve hours and in summer I wore a sailor hat. I paid about seventy-five dollars for my suits—a high price in those days. Then I had my suit made to order, but today ready-made clothes have been brought to such a degree of per- fection that one can do much better in price. I paid about one dollar apiece for my blouses; about ten dollars for my winter hat and five dollars for my summer one; and between sixty and seventy-five dollars for my dress I was on the staff of a New York newspaper, and these seemed to me the clothes suitable to the life I led. But it is a fact that in those days and with that wardrobe I could attend any function this side of a ball at the White House and feel well dressed. Of course there were underclothes and shoes and so on, besides. But the outfit I have listed averaged less than three hundred dollars a year Perhaps the other details cost another hundred dollars. A tidy sum then ot so much now. Still four hundred dollars a year never is piffling. 0A.

(This is not technical and complex, but very practical and simple, and worth your consideration.) As you exercise, and your body gradually be- comes warmer, the cellular structure of the knit fabric absorbs the moisture from the skin, and helps in its rapid evaporation. So your body is almost continually dry and comfortable—and so is your underwear. Correctly fashionable in design and fit Carter's Knit Underwear is planned and executed by an expert designer, who keeps in constant and close touch with the ever-changing fashions. She lowers i neck-line, widens the knees, adds an inch or so to the waistline,—or vic« versa,—as fashion demands. Living dels are used for all original fittings, nd each tiniest wrinkle or “pull” is rrected as it may appear in the many positions the model assumes. Room- iness is provided for wherever it is needed, snugness where it is essential In fact nothing is overlooked which will ldt mfort or correctness of line. So that not only in exactness of fit, but 1 i Ki Under ] I A & I [ TW | la Gg Carter’s Button-holes are reinforced, buttons ar curely sewed on, seams are guaranteed igainst breakage, and in the women’s and children’s underwear there is the double-crochet edging found exclusively in Carter’s. All these details not only add to the attractiveness, but lengthen the life of the garments, thus making Carter’s Knit Underwear the truest economy. Whatever the occasion, there is the right Carter's Knit Underwear for it Carter's Knit Underwear by its very nature adapts itself ideally to all figures, its smoothness and conformity making a perfect foundation for any dress, whether it be a close-fitting knitted sports frock, or a sheer, crisp organdie. You can get Carter's Knit Underwear in almost any combination—high-neck, round neck, bodice top, long sleeves, short sleeves, sleeveless, fulllength,tight knee or open knee. In a variety of weights too, in cotton, silk, lisle, cotton- and-wool, or wool. And of course you know that Carter’s Knit Underwear is made for men, children and babies, as well as for women. If you are unable to get the particular style you are seeking, be sure to ask that a letter be written tothe William Carter Company.

When oily, dry or dull If your hair is too oily, or too dry; if it is dull and heavy, lifeless, stiff and gummy; if the strands cling together, and it feels harsh and disagreeable to the touch; or if it is full of dan druff, it is all due to improper shampooing. You will be delighted to see how easy it 1s to keep your hair looking beautiful, when you use Mulsified cocoanut oil shampoo. Two or three teaspoonfuls of Mulsified in a cup or glass with a little warm water is sufficient to cleanse the hair and scalp thoroughly. Simply pour the Mulsified evenly over the hair and rub it in. It makes an abundance of rich, creamy lather, which rinses out quickly and easily, removing every particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and excess oil—the chief causes of all hair troubles.

The Ladies HOME JOURNAL April, 19 nand ‘loday three marvelous kitchen cabinets, con- ceived from the ideas suggested by 369 women, stand out from all other cabi- nets—Mary,Helen,and Dorothy Boone. One Year Ago a small advertisement appeared in this magazine, admitting that our kitchen cabinet was no better than the others and ask- ing you women for practical suggestions. Illustration shows Mary Boone Kitchen Cabinet omen Designed, these ‘Thirree “kitchen Cabinets. ” HICH kitchen cabinet shall I buy?”Could you shave become famous in such a short space of time. have answered definitely a year ago? Even we, It is gratifying tofind also that weare rapidly becom- These features are worth much more to you than their slight additional cost. You want a kitchen cabinet to save you time and work. The special women-designed fea tures of Mary, Helen, and Dor othy Boone make them the most economical kitchen cabi nets because they save you s much more time and work T ealer their oldest manufacturers, were forced to admit that we couldn’t. In one short year—what a change! Todaythree mar- velous kitchen cabinets stand out, acclaimed, preferred —Mary Boone, Helen Boone, and Dorothy Boone — a triple tribute to the ingenuity of American women. Last April we gave you womenreadersof The Ladies’ Home Journal your first opportunity to say what you wanted in your kitchen cabinet. In the avalanche of enthusiastic replies were 369 letters suggesting prac- tical, needed improvements of which mere man had neverdreamed. No wonder Mary, Helen,and Dorothy Boone, created trom these women-made suggestions, ing the clearing house for practical ideas for further improving kitchen cabinets. Women are constantly sending us suggestions, many of them of great value to womankind. Boone kitchen cabinets will ever con- tinue to be the most progressive, modern cabinets. No longer need you accept kitchen cabinets limited in their utility by men’s ideas. No longer need you question “which shall I buy?” On the first anniversary of Mary,Helen,and Dorothy Boone (the kitchen cabi- nets designed by 369 women ),the tribute they are re- ceiving from women everywhere points the sure way for your decision.

If you fail to find them, remit to us De Toot Brus/ Dept. 191 George St., Toronto, Ont. London, England, Decoater THE PEPSODENT COMPANY 1104 S. Wabash Ave., Chicago, Ills. Sydney, Australia Pocket Style Made in the Decoater type which modern authorities urge all to adopt The Pocket Style Tooth Brush People who eat away from home are being advised by dentists now to carry a pocket tooth brush Not tr ort course, 1d motorists only. To them, a well-kept brush is essential. But school children and workers also need this type. Teeth should be brushed after every meal. Otherwise, one carries unclean teeth for hours. The Decoater brush, to meet this need, comes also in this pocket style. The brush folds into metal case, well ventilated, vest pocket size. The handle-case is permanent. You simply buy refills as brushes wear out. 7 veiers al Decoater The Decoater is the type of brush on which dentists now agree. It is made to the specifications of dental au- thorities who have studied this subject long This is now, the world over, the authoritative type. Modern requirements call for more than merely re- moving débris. Film-coats and other deposits must be removed. The brush must be adapted to clean every tooth surface. It must penetrate between the teeth Teeth should be brushed with a rolling motion—al- ways from the gums toward the tooth points. The mod- ern brush must fit that requirement The brush should also massage the gums to maintain their health and vigor. Dentists in general have decided that the Decoater type best meets these needs. And they everywhere advise it.

It seems that your weight is taken off your feet. And, really, that is what happens, for instead of your foot arch supporting your body, the shoe arch supports it. weight of the body and quickly lets the foot become strained and The Arch Preserver uncomfortable, the Arch Preserver Shoe has a special concealed ture and Civilisation built-in arch-bridge that supports the foot arch perfectly no matter how high the stylish heel of the shoe raises the foot arch from the ground. \ j . we ° ° ° ° f ‘4 ) Unlike the ordinary shoe arch construction which sags under the é | kid This support is permanent; it is there during the entire life of the shoe. Incidentally the shoe lasts longer and always looks attractive because the Arch Preserver construction prevents the weight of the body from breaking it down and out of shape.

HOME JOURNAL Purebred Holstein Milk 2 -F-p me Le} oe Babies VITAL, he special value of purebred Holstein milk for in fant and baby feeding, as well as for general family may be summed up briefly as follows By laboratory tests, the fat content and other nutrients in purebred Holstein milk are found to be in proportions nearest to Mother’s milk. The fat globules in purebred Holstein milk are small, quickly emulsified and easily digested. Purebred Holstein cows are strong, healthy, large and vigorous, and those same qualities are imparted in the milk. With such a perfectly balanced, vitalizing food, doctors and nurses have found that even the most acute cases of malnu- trition are often rapidly overcome by the use of purebred Holstein milk If your baby is not thriving as you think it should, ask your doctor about purebred Holstein milk and use it in accordance with his recommendations. Purebred Holstein milk is naturally light in color The average test of milk from 12,300 purebred Holsteins, tested under official supervision of the last year, was 3.57 per cent fat Agricultural Colleges If your milkman can not supply you with purebred Holstein milk write us and we will assist you 1n securing it oo EXTENSION SERVICE, The Holstein-Friesian Association of America 233 East Ohio Street, Chicago, III \ \ E.

Marian had a good look at him as he passed the window to go to his car. He might have been walking in a nigntmare. Indians were naught to him. His strident orders and violent movements had been merely the explosion of an un abatable and terrible passion. Stolid, heavy, immovable German that he was, he had heard news to unseat his reason for this hour. Likewise Marian had a fleeting glimpse of Morgan’s face. Did she catch a lurking sar donic gleam, a malignant flash of eyes? Or had her sensitive imagination conjured up illusive justifications of her opinion of this man? She marveled at him. As a woman she seemed to shrink from her enormous con ception of him. Was she right or wrong? She would have wagered her all that his mind was a dark abyss and that his soul was a wilderness.

The Entwhistles still occupy the large house in which they lived before their sons were married. Mr. Entwhistle in his more domineering moments sometimes suggests that they might sell out and move into a small apartment. But each time the sug- gestion lies right there on its back and dies Mr. Entwhistle has an air of world weari ness and submission. His wife believes that woman’s place isin the home. Her daughters in-law point out that she is there, always except at mealtimes, and the he goes to the moving pictures.

The piquancy of living flowers!— Madame, Mademoiselle, has wished for it in contrast to the artificiality of perfume? It is the tail of the rainbow perfumers to queens have vainly pursued these hundreds of years. But now it comes—this miracle. As different from the odeurs one now knows as the laughing vintages of France from the still wines of Italy. VIVANTE Vivante, Madame—a name well worth carry- ing in one’s mind. At your own shop you may find it—life contrast- ing existence; living flowers overwhelming the sombreness of perfume! It is to live. And to let others know one lives!
