October Fun.
*FHE October woods and fields are full
^ of play materials for the children.
Nuts, seeds and leaves may be utilized
under mother's direction to make quaint
and pretty playthings, amusing the chil
dren for hours at the same time that
they are learning finger skill. Give the
little girl a saucer full of yellow and
red kernels of corn, acorns and the flat,
white squash and melon seeds, wonder
working stuff for making jeweled neck
laces which she may hang about her neck
and be transformed into a child princess.
The seeds will need to be soaked for
an hour in warm water and dried be
tween soft towels. A length of coarse
white linen thread and a short, thick
needle are necessary .for the stringing.
The needle is thrust through the fleshy
end of each kernel of corn and the point
ed end of the squash and melon seeds. A
hole bored through each acorn with an
awl makes it possible to use the nuts
for pendants to the chains.
The yellow and red corn may be alter
nated, or three red kernels may be strung
between daisies made of the yellow ker
nels after the fashion of the daisy bead
chains Melon and squash seeds alter
nated with the corn make a dainty neck
lace, or they may be used for pendants.
Paper Possibilities.
have become accustomed to paper
napkins and paper plates, and now
we have paper towels. They are made in
a roll, punctured at intervals, to be torn
off as desired. Paper dishcloths are on
the same plan. Fancy dresses can be
made of paper with good effect, and flow,
er and vegetable costumes are particular
ly excellent in paper for fancy balls. Cur
tains of white crepe paper last a long
time. Lamp shades can be made of it,
and paper rope work Is used for vases,
jars, jardlneres, trays and baskets.
Simple Way to Test Eggs.
MAKE a brine by dissolving two
ounces of salt in one pint of water,
then lay in th eeggs. An egg laid the
lame day will sink to tj?e bottom, an egg
laid the previous day will not ain't quite
:o the bottom; an egg three days old
will float just under the surface; an older
tgg floats on or above the surface. There
fore the older the egg the higher It will
?f above the water.
Voile Gown.
touches of black satin. The bodice has
a narrow vest of ecru lace, a narrow
ruffle of flner lace turning back on to the
overlapping blouse front and above the
neck. On either side of the vest Is a
flat, narrow band consisting of fine
tucks placed horlsontally. A similar
band marks the drop shoulder line of the
blouse. The long sleeve is finished by a
flat cuff of lace. The skirt consists of a
triple machine-pleated flounce. Black
satin pipes the neck and is used as girdle
and sash ends.
In the new skirts the fullness comes
from below the hips and terminates at
the knees.
