cleaner and not to the washer-

woman. pleating is admirable.
It does seem rather inconsiderate.
though. the way some or the dress-
makcrs use pleating on cotton and
linen blouses and frocks that ought
in the nature of things to be washed
with map and water. And yet. or
course, that sort oi cleansing treat-
ment wrecks the plotting Except
tor that the pleating that is done by
Lp-LO-dalo plasters seems to with~
stand everything. Once pleating was
merely wished in our frocks. We
hesitated wearing a pleated skirt
unless we expected to walk or stand
all the time we were it.

Now tor any sort of chiffon. goers-
cite or crepe frock—and most frocks
are of those materials. it seems-
pleating is admirable. Fleeting is
\cspeclnlly liked now because it offers
an attractive way of using the very
thin fabrics that are so moon in
vogue. It gives volume and fullness
i0 chlti'on or gsorgette without giv-
ing thickness. Just compare the
ci'tcct of fullness shirrcd or gathered
into a {rock or goorgette and the
cume fullness introduced by means
of pleating!

The sketch shows one of the most
attractive pleated frOCks of the sea-
son. It is yellow crepe do chine.
with the pleating all at the back. At
the front there is a v neck-line fin-
ished with a. brown and yellow tie.
The long sleeves are also trimmed
with the pleating.

There is nothing very novel about
using pleating to trim blouses and
frocks. but we are sometimes aston-
ished to see how much pleating is
used in trimming hats. in the mak-
ing of dainty underthings. and in
the new acute. Then the large box
pleats that are introduced to give
occasional fullness to the skirt of a
frock are an old style recently re-
vived. Quite frequently with the new
sport frocks these large box pleat/s
appear well below the hips or at the
knees.

Though grief seems always hard
to bear.
Whatever pleasure we employ,
To think a world forever fair.
Forever Joy, would SOY detest.

The hurt of absence. how it pains!
Gray skies there are. as well as

Yet roses are the fruit of rains-
However trite, forever true.
We learn what Joy is when we

Whatever else we may believe.

So even grist I call God's gift:
The wisest wear the deepest scars.
Not till the night comes de we liit
Our eyes to heaven and see the

And not till loss comes do we see
The ‘cross that stands on Calvary.

Brothers, I know no more than

That loss may have its profit. too.
And much we gain when much w.

If it shall make us dearer hold

The principle is nearly aim the
some. The rheostate used in radio
consist merely of a coil of line wire
wound on an insulating support.
This coil of wire is bare and s. slid-
ing contact presses against the side
of the coil. As this contact moves
around (as. for example. when you
turn the knob of your radio-set
rheostat) it cuts out or in the cir-
cuit more or less of the wire coil.

When the 'rheostst is set for the
lowest filament temperature," that is
for the smallest current. that means
that all the wire in the rhsostst’is

ksrnlNA

W of us are aware that Ka-
F trina, one at our most common

names. is really Slovak. Though
it appears as Katrine in England.
and Bavaria1 the Slovsc is the only
language in which Katrina is oili-
cislly recorded. It means “pure"
and comes originally trout the Latin
Catharina. the virgin martyr of
Alexandria whose life story is sup-
plied by half‘allegoriosl legend.

The sweet saint of history. whose
name has been immortalised in all
countries. was also called Katharina.
Her wisdom. her havenly cspousals.
her rejection of the suit of Msximuc.
the destruction of the wheels that
would have torn her to pieces. and
her final martyrdom by the sword
have been recorded in the literature
of every land.

 

Santa Caterina of Sienna. whose
influence was one of the most power.

tul in the Middle Ages. caused her
name to be given a prominent place
in history since she imagined that
she was the prototype of the origi-
nal saintly martyr. From Caterina
to Katerina was aneaey step. though
many of the European countries
reached lt by way at the more in-
volved Katherine. which still per-
sists in modern times. Katrina.
however. is pretenble and much
more popular in this country.

The turquoise is Katrina's talis-
msnic gem. It is believed to bring
her happiness in love and to protect
her from deceitful friends or admir-
ers. Tuesday is her lucky day and
