l have often thought. that it was tho
vigorous rubbing \vith‘a rough or moll-
oraloly rough towel that. did one good
ill the. morning after the cold bulb
quite {LS much as the cold water. How
many who cannot get. into the watol
would take the trouble to give them-
selves :1 good rougb‘towel massage?
I am convinced that there is nothing
in shoos which will take a stronger
hold of the. popular fancy this spring
than the bronze goods. There are
pumps and twooyelet. Gibson ties, both
with solos that make them practical
for street wear, and there is no color
ll‘IlIl‘h will combine more prettlly with
the bungee and linen frocks which ov-
olly one is going to wear. The low
styles with lighter soles will be soon
on veranda and with the thlunl-r
frocks.
There‘s one thing you must do if you
are. going to have a crepe waist made
—~not only wash it but shrink ll.
shrink ill! It is very natural to liko
to get the first. wear (which is always
.ho best) out of a material before it
is fiiundsred, but in the matter of
hope. there should be no choice it you
.vtml ever to wear ltafterward. for it.

Crab with mushrooms from the "Na-
tioual Food Magazine": Put into a
saucepan a tablespoonful of butter and
.zook in it :1 large slice of onion finely
chopped. Add a. tablespoonful of flour
when the onion is transparent, rub
smooth and add a whim of cream.
Season uith salt, paprika. and a table
spoonful of lemon Juice then add the
mashed yolks of two hard-boiled eggs.
.1. pint of crab meat and a. can of small
button mushrooms, after cutting each
one in two. Put. into a. pan after stil-
ring all together, sprinkle with crack-
er crumbs and brown in a moderate
oven.
All the fruits you will see on the
spring hats will not. be ripe, for many
of them have been plucked green and
are as ham to life in appearance as
the plums and grapes and cherries and
LDDIOS that seem ready to eat.
The scarf of filmy material which is
so much worn now seems particularly
appropriate with the gowns of scant
measure.
The milliners are using some very
handsome satiny materials in a corded
we‘uve to drape the crowns of some of
their most stunning shapes.
~ Some will never be induced to ac-
cept. any substitute for white linen for
waists and frocks, but there are cot~

this season, like Flax’ou and Linens.

Beyond all wealth, honor or even .
