In Another August By Margaret Child "Hold laughter fast. Tomorrow, today, too. will be past.” As time flies, and it still does, even faster than the superplanes. August. 1898, was really "only yesterday.” Women worked: women wore long skirts; women played golf and ten nis. And the eternal search for beauty was on then, too—on^ with out today's streamlined salons to aid her, milady of 1898 resorted to other means to obtain it. As for example, the young society belle who confided her formula for lovely arms. She literally swept her way to graceful arms! Noticing that all housemaids invariably had rounded, shapely arms, whefeas hers were scrawny and unsightly, this daring miss ordered a load of imported brooms and forthwith began a rig orous schedule of sweeping her own bedroom and sitting room five times a day. Within a week, she noticed an improvement and although the exercise was a terrible bother and involved adoption of a strange cos tume consisting of chamois gloves, a. silk dust cap and a golf skirt, she bravely continued it. At the time she revealed her secret, she had worn out, fivp brooms and two car pets, but her arms were as lovely as any maid's. Ellen Osborn reported from Sara toga In August. 1898, that the fa mous watering place had become a muslin paradise. "The Saratoga girl,” wrote Miss O. "wears muslin on her bicycle—nothing more could be said to prove her devotion to the fabric. She wears muslin in her hammock. She plays croquet in muslin. She gives cool, green and white afternoon teas and again she is in muslin. She rocks on the hotel piazzas in the twilight and still she is in muslin. Saratoga is the cap ital of the kingdom of muslin!” Prom another outstanding resort rame a rurt social note denying the hopes of Cinderellas everywhere who might dream of capturing a prince in the hard, modern days of 1898 The item ran, "The report that the young Prince of Turin fell In love with b poor young lady at Newport, is in the nature of a tw'o pronged lie. In the first place, princes never fall in love with young ladies. In the second place, poor young ladies do not flourish in the fashionable circles of Newport.” A boon to timid swimmers was put on the market that August—a corset of rubber designed for use by women learning to swim. Made double with an air space between the two thicknesses of corset, the gar ment could be blown up, thus buoy ing the nervous neophyte. More shapely than a rubber or cork ring. 1 he corset conformed to the shape of thp wearer, giving a neat appear ance to the figger and not showing at all! Russia and other corsets were l_n the news together. By order of the Russian Minister of Public In struction. one Bogoljewow, no Rus sian women tn the high schools, universities, art or music schools could wear corsets. Having made an exhaustive study of the under garment, M. Bogoljewow stated that as an article of dress, it was defi nitely prejudicial to the health and physical development of the Rus sian women. The well-dressed. up-to-date summer girl of 1898 would no more wear her shirt waist a second day than she would commit the impro priety of wearing her linen collar a second time. A special place should be found on the summer budget for this. No sensible wardrobe should contain less than 12 summer shirt waists at no less than $8 each. These, with an allowance nf $18 for in weeks laundering at 28 cents per shirtwaist came to a total of $78. g no* Inconsiderable sum Of course, l.entntt Pie How about a lemnn pie for des *ert tomorrow? Here goes Soak a tablespoon of gelatin in a little cold water. Combine 14 cup of sugar with >4 cup of lemon juice, U teaspoon salt and the lightly beaten yolks of 4 eggs. Cook In the top of a double boiler, stirring until thickened. Add the dissolved gela tin and a teaspoon or more of grated lemon rind. Blend well and let cool slightly. Beat the egg whites until stiff with cup of sugar and W'hip 1 cup of heavy cream until it Js stiff. When the custard starts to thicken, beat it with a wire whisk to make It fluffy, fold in the egg whiles and thpn fold in the cream. Pour into a baked pie shell and chill thoroughly before serving. This is a winner! lone could buy bargain-counter shirtwaists but they were not chic and lacked the tailor finish, perfect fit and novelty of design without which "the shirtwaist is an abomi nation to the eye." Jeweled slippers were "the thing” the summer of 1898, matching mi lady’s necklaces and pins. Rhine stones were the favored decoration, diamonds naturally, being <oo valu able to be allowed to twinkle care lessly on one's feet. Sterling silver hat brushes with the best quality Russian bristles were selling for 70 cents in Wash ington that summer. Imported dress ginghams had been reduced to 12cents a yard for clearance, with imported figured organdies marked down to 8'i cents and sum mer silks at 75 cents a yard. Gen uine alligator leather bags, sachel type, leather lined, had been re duced to $3.50 from $5. Muslin sheets, size 90x90, were 50 cents each. With the country on the brink of war with Spain, a lengthy article chronicled the progress of the mod ern woman's emancipation from economic domination and revealed that whereas in 1860. only 500.000 women in the entire ynited States were wage earners, by 1890, thanks to the Civil War, 4,000.000 women were engaged in gainful pursuits. "There are men enough in the country to support all the women if they would." the article answered the charge that women were taking needed jobs from men. “But they do not.” The article pointed out the most unfair situation by which women received only half the wages given men for the same positions and branded the practice an out rage. And it ended wtth an ominous warning, "When women acquire the power in business which they have always been able to wield in love, they will correct the evil of lower wages, too.” The Star, as always, was so right! WhyGrow Old? Ry Josephine Lawman Here is another letter from a marathon winner, one of the people who had fine results from an eight i week course in diet and exercise. This letter demonstrates the influ- j ence of overweight on happiness; and health more than anything I could possibly write! "Dear Mrs. Low'man: Three years ago I was about 40 pounds over weight and wore a size 22'/2 dress. T didn't have any self-confidence and got so T didn't care about meeting people because ] knew T didn't look wpII, no matter how nice my clothes were. Also, the extra poundage was 1 affecting mv health. My doctor told me that" my heart w?as acting up because there was too much fat around it. I was completely ex hausted after cleaning our small five-room house and was always too ! tired to go out in the evening. “Then came the day when I ; started the marathon! I continued I the routine checkups, until I took off 45 pounds. I wish I had ‘before’ and ‘after’ pictures to send you. "I now wear a size 18 dress and am so much more confident. I have become very active as a pri mary Sunday school department j supervisor. This work necessitates being bpforp large groups of people ! from time to time. Now T go along ! with my husband and son to athletic events and social activities, rather than having all of us stay at home, We have purchased our own home, which has eight, rooms, two baths, a large front porch and a basement. T can care for that much more easily than .1 could the smaller house. "But just one sentence was worth all of the trouble! Recently I bought a blue coat with a fur collar. When I tried it on at home, my husband remarked, 'You couldn’t have worn that a while back, but I now it suits you,’ and our 11-year old son said, ’Gee, Mom, you look s swell’.” Who says that personal appear ance does not affect happiness? Not I!” If you would like to have a routine which will help you reduce success fully, send a stamped, self-addressed envelope with your request for leaflet No. 1.

Box 100. i Station G, Nfcw York 19, N, Y. • The mogic of a jeweler's art is the result of a lot of hard work and planning. Pictured in the center photograph is a Craftsman setting stones. This is just one phase of the intricate work attached to the creation of a jewel. On the left, double its actual size, is the rough sketch of the pin. On the right is the pin itself. The corsage pin is mode up of diamonds and rubies, in a platinum mounting. —ar»p« Photo*. By Eleni Sentiment, imagination and a craftsman's art can combine to make a jewel of rare beauty. As it often happens, some one's vague dream of a "different" piece of jewelry can result in the exciting creation of just such a jewel. One of the most interesting pro cedures in the business is the cre ation of a jew^l From the vague idea that finally materializes into actual sketches by the designer, quite a bit of work is Involved. Rough sketches are made and passed on until the right design is created. The final sketch is shown with all stones in their proper coloring and size. From this sketch a wax model showing actual modulation and size is constructed and passed on to the diamond picker. However, the fin ished piece is still a long way from completion. From papers contain ing carats of glittering stones the picker fills all the designated places in the wax model with stones that will be used in the actual piece. After this process it is a little easier to visualize the jewel as it will look when completed. From this point the jewel goes on to the jeweler. He takes a dull lump of metal, rolls and pounds it to the desired thickness and with various shaped “dopping" tools and a lead block, shapes the metal to the desired form. With the wax model in front of him, he takes each stone from its temporary resting place and with a steel scratcher outlines the shape and size on the surface of the metal. In the center of each outline a tiny hole is drilled. It is just large enough to admit a fine saw blade. The outline is sawed out. While the hole is round on top, it is a geometrical square in the back. The reason for this is to remove the excess metal and brace the piece to hold it steady. After the craftsman has com pleted his part of the process the work is handed to the polisher, usually a girl, who is very patient. The. back and Inside of each tiny hole is polished and then the piece is turned over to the setter. He firmly anchors each stone in its designated place with tiny claws. These claws are so small you can 1 barely see them. After this opera-; ticm, the Jewel goes once again to the polisher, who puts cm the "fin ishing touches." Next step Involves the jewel being given to the stock clerk, who re-1 cords each detail of the piece in the inventory book. It la then ready to be displayed. In the case of old jewels that call for a bit of modem design to; make them fit into today's fashion i picture, they, too, would undergo! just about the same working pro-; cedure. The stones instead of being; found loose in papers, would be carefully measured in their old set tings. They would be planned for in the future design, and before mounting, must be carefully unset and put into the waxed model. - Readers* Clearing House TRIS. I (From Mr!. C. H. B„ Arlivglon.) I have six shades of iris that T would like to offer to any one wish ing a start of lavender, purple and blue iris and T would love to have a start of yellow, white ancf bronze if any one cares to exchange with me, also a root of white phlox in exchange for pink. I am watching for the reprint of "St. Peter Stood at the Golden Gate.” My mother used to recite that poem when I was a wee little i girl. She got it out of a dental i magazine printed about 1880 or i 1882. LEMON PUDDING? <From M. R., Washington.) I would like a recipe for a good lemon pudding. I have tasted it in inns around this part of the coun try, but have never found a recipe for a really good one. * * * * PUERTO RICO? (From Mrs. J. W. H. R... Lancaster.) Having read the recent, queries and answers in re: Readers going to California. Hawaii, etc., to live has made me wonder if any one! can give me information on living conditions in Puerto Rico. I would like to know about cost of living! and availability of housing and food prices. Also are maids’ salaries1 as little as they are ia some other places outside the United States? Does one “lose face” there if a wife does her own housework? How about the social life there? * * * * RE-ENAMELING STOVE? POEM WANTED? (From F. M. S.. Washington.) Is there any way of re-enameling a stove? Where can I get the poem "I Had a Mother Who Read to Me?” * * * * CHARLESTON? (From Mrs. J. A. D., Washington.) I would appreciate information from any one who has lived in Charleston. S. C.. about living con ditions there. Are there good apart ments near the Navy Yard, and at about what rent? W * * * PLANT MITES? MUSTY ODOR. (From Mrs. H. L. J., Riverdale.) SOS. Please some one. can you tel! me what are the little white mites that live on the bottom of dower pots? They come out in the; saucers and are even on the bottom1 of the clay saucers the pot sits in.! Are they harmful to plants? My plants seem to be beautiful and healthy and all jst once begin to look sick, leavps turn yellow. I ! know it's not due to improper care, j I know they are not fungus gnats ] as I've had experience with them. These white mites are in my violets, j too, but they seem to be doing dne. Where do they come from? I have just about decided they come from the fertilizer I use in tablet form. Sometimes these little bugs look like a tiny centipede and jump when disturbed. They seem only in the bottom of the dower pot. I imagine i in the soil, too. I tried pouring I nicotine sulfate on them and it ! doesn't kill them. I will be grateful i if some one can tell me what to do to get rid of them. For Mrs. I. E. M., Silver Spring: Re: Musty odor. I, too, have had this trouble except that it was in our mattress. I tried everything, but nothing will completely remove the musty odor. A spraying with a liquid that is supposed to kill mildew may help and prevent fur ther mildew. A thorough airing in the sun will help. too. I'm finally discarding my mattress and getting a new one. I'm going to try the bags of chemical under the beds this time. I was quite successful by keeping an electric fan turned on all day under the bed. Helped dry it out. I would recommend you use the spray for mildew, then thoroughly air and place chemical bags under the furniture for further protection. Hint: To make frosting like you find on cakes you buy, use a boiled frosting recipe. After it is beaten to a creamy consistency add 4X sugar to make desired consistency and add coloring, etc. This frost ing doesn’t have that sickening sweet taste I find in others. CONCERNING GLASSES. (From Mrs. R. W. F... Washington.) To Mrs. C. J. 8.: If your daughter is so anxious to wear glasses and has already had her eyes examined, st family expense, why don't you put it up to her that she may have the glasses if she is willing to buy them for herself out of her own spending money? Surely at her age she has an allowance and has learned to spend it with some de gree of wisdom. If she considers glasses a costume accessory! let her purchase them out of her clothes money, as she would costume jew elry, etc. Since the glasses aren’t a necessity they might be given to her on some gift occasion, such as a birthday or Christmas, if she still wants them by then. * * * * DISHWASHER? (From - Mrs. F.. S., Washington.) I would like to hear from some one who has a dishwasher that Is operatPd by water power Instead of electricity. T’ve read that they are excellent because they have no mo tor to go on the blink. Can any one tell me where I can see this type of dishwasher demonstrated in Washington? * * * * DEN MOTHER (From Mrs. H. L. W., Alexandria.) In reply to Mrs. D. K. S., Alex andria, who has recently been made a den mother, may I suggest that she immediately procure for her self a den mother's den book, a wolf, bear and lion book at her local store stocking Boy Scout equipment. When her Pack Committee of which she will be a member, is'fully organized she will receive many helpful suggestions and upon regis tration will be sent a monthly j Scouters’ Bulletin containing much helpful material. From time to time her local coun cil will conduct leadership training courses which will prove valuable. She can undoubtedly be referred to a den mother of experience if she contacts by telephone her Boy Scout executive. Her success as a den mother will depend upon her resourcefulness, ingenuity and sense of humor, par ticularly the latter. (From Mrs. M. D., Bloomfield. N. J.) i I am visiting in Washington and my attention was drawn to an item printed in the Clearing House. Last year our school opened up a cub pack with three den mothers who had never had any training at all. So I know what your fears are. We had a course given us in Octo ber which was very helpful. May I say at this time your worries won’t be too bad if you keep the boys; busy at all times. Is there a Scout i group in your vicinity? If so ask! the scout leader for a boy to be a den chief for you, a great deal of the work should fall on his should ers, with you more or less the super visor. Last year our boys decorated our school tree for Christmas, mak ing all the ornaments. This in cluded paper chains, angels made of pasteboard or card painted with poster paint, such as they use in school. Santa heads made of bumt out electric bulbs; save any wire such as used on milk bottles for this also. Father’s Day the boys made and stained small boxes for collar buttons, etc., and stamps. Mother's Day they made bracelets and some took coffee cans, enameled them and stuck clothespins over outside of top and filled them with pansies. If you wish, when I go home, I will send you some outlines we use and other ideas* I hope this will help you a little. WAFFLES? (From F. M. D.. Washington.) Is there any one among you who could help me solve a problem which I have long been unable to solve. I would like very much to know how to make good crispy waffles. I have left the waffles in the iron until they are all but burnt, and still they are doughy. I have used too much and too little fat, thinking this might be the cause. If there-Is any one among you who have solved this problem and care to pass the informfiftpn on to me it would be greatly appreciated. MARKS ON CLOTHES LINE; MUSTY MATTRESS: TO MAKE FAT SWEET; HINT; QUERIES? (From, Mrf. E. E. D„ Anntindale.) Some time ago some one asked what to do about black marks left on clothes from pins In using an aluminum clothes line. 1 save my • paste) wax rag and .tar. too, to keep rag in between uses. Run rag up and down line to clean off black de posit and leave a nice coating of wax. Let dry a few minutes before hanging up clothes. Do this as often as needed; you can tell by running a rag along wire if wax is still on. For Mrs. L. L. J., Washington: To rid your mattress and room of musty odor get some calcium chloride. Make a container for it by piercing holes in a coffee can, suspend over a container to catch drippings, put this under your bed and see how quickly he odor will disappear. To keep frying fsU sweet, slice a potato in hot fat and fry, strain fat through eloth, keep in ice box. Mothers, before putting baby in his pen outside, sprinkle moth flakes on ground under and around pen. This will keep ants and bugs from crawling on baby and pen. Good for blanket sun bathers, too. Now for my request: I’ve dam-' aged the finish inside my wash basin by using a cleaner too strong for the finish. Does any one know of a successful way to reflnish this? The surface is pitted and rough. I would like to sand this smooth and try to reflnish it, but would like to know if it has been done by any one and what success they have had doing the job. Also, would love to have a recipe1 for cooking, using anise drops in-; stead of anise seed. I once had a grand recipe clipped from RCH, but have lost it. Also forgot Its contents. * * * * ICE CREAM; OATMEAL CRISPIES. (From I. M. W., Bladensburg.) Now for a good and easy recipe I for ice cream to be made in the re frigerator. I save each day a por ! tion of the top cream of bottled | milk; until I hAve about a cupful. It must be at least four days old to whip well. When ready to make it, turn the dial to freezing point. This is necessary for smooth cream. Then in a double boiler pour 1V4 i cups of milk, >/2 cup sugar, 1 tea spoon gelatin, 2 egg yolks. Cook and stir to a custard. Cool. Add 11 teaspoon vanilla. Whip the 2 egg j whites and fold into the custard. Pour into the quart tray and freeze to a stiff mush, then whip the cream and fold in and replace in the re frigerator to complete freezing. Dif-j ferent sauces vary the serving, i Mince meat stirred into the ice cream or used as a sauce makes an other change, I use a double boiler top, round-j bottomed, for batter mixture and ice cream, finding it much handler! than a mixing bowl. May I add an excellent recipe for oatmeal crispies? Thoroughly cream Vi cup shortening, 1 cup brown | sugar and 1 egg. Add Vi tablespoon vinegar. Mix % cup flour, V« tea spoon salt. 1 teaspoon baking pow der and Vi teaspoon cinnamon, add to first mixture. Add *4 cup chop ped raisins, cup chopped walnut meats and 1 cup quick oatmeal. Drop from teaspoon on greased cookie sheet and bake in moderate (375 F.> oven for 10 minutes. This makes 3>2 dozen cookies. My friends like them so well they ask for the recipe. I just tried the oatmeal raisin meat loaf and found it delicious. Many thanks to Mrs. J. A. M. Contributions and requests must be accompanied by the sender’s full name and address.

Betsy Caswell KNITTED WASHCLOTH. (From Mrs. J. M. F„ Washington.) About three weeks ago I saw this request from Mrs. A. F. B. I find that I have the directions and it gives me pleasure to send them. Both of these methods were sent in bv Clearing House readers. (From Mrs. B. T., Hyattsville): Knitted washcloth: Use size 1 needles and any knitting cotton which you can get or want to use. Cast on three stitches. Each time across be sure to knit the first stitch and in the stitch next to the last one on the needle add a stitch. Continue this until you have It as large as you think that you want it to be along one side. Then knit three rows without adding and then start to decrease. Each time that you go across knit the second and' third stitches from the end together. Do not add or decrease at the be-' ginning of the row, only at the end The washcloths are knit on .'the diagonal and do not stretch. I have knitted a number of them and people like them very much. * * + * RECLAIMING SHORTENING. (Frofn Mrs. H. G. J.. Fairfax.) I would like to make a suggestion to the lady who wanted to know how to reclaim her used shortening. Use about twice as much water as fat and bring it all to a boil. When cold the fat can be taken off, im purities will all be at the bottom. If not clean enough, repeat. ADVERTISEMENT.

With the limited space usu ally allotted, double-duty lamps wherever possible supply the an swer to your problem. By double duty I don’t necessarily mean that a floor lamp should double as a clothes tree or a hat rack, but. judging from some col lege rooms I’ve seen, I’m sure it will, no matter what. Fortunately, dorm itory rooms usually have either simple Colonial or modern furnish ings. This gives you a choice of some lovely contemporary lamps that are on exhibit now at several modem museums. A hand-made modem floor lamp I know of is finished in satin chrome, has a swinging arm and the height can be adjusted from 49 inches to 60 inches. The shade, in a choice of vellumlte or white linen, rests on a plastic reflector which diffuses efficient illumination. Without serv ing as a hat rack, it will be dual purpose if placed between an arm chair and your desk, so t^hat it can be swung to throw sufficient light over either or both areas. If your desk or table is large and you find your work is spread over it, you'll need enough spread of light to cover it. A simple desk lamp that is a replica of the floor lamp sheds both direct and indirect light over a large area. It’s 18 inches high WAREHOUSE CLEARANCE FINE KITCHEN CABINETS AND SINK TOPS GW™ 8001 Cann. Ava. OL.

The obvious rea son is that something might go wrong with one source, and it would be convenient to have an alterna tive. More subtle, but even more im portant. is the fact that one lamp alone usually makes for unhealthy glare ana certainly too much bright ness contrast. If the price of the floor lamp is prohibitive, a more reasonable so lution is a gooseneck desk lamp and a matching pin-up lamp for over your chair or bed. These can be found in a spun aluminum finish in most department stores and deco rating shops. They are simple in appearance and versatile in use. Their goosenecks make it possible to use them for either direct or indi rect lighting simply by adjusting them. The shapes you can get those necks into are fun, too. Try making a three-dimensional twist fof most attractive results. IT'S TIME TO SHINE WITH rrj.
