There's a simple, o oned remedy which will alw the work. Get an ounce of pure mer- colized wax from your druggist an apply It at night like cold washing it off In the morning wax will gently absord all the less skin and leave a healthy beautiful complexion, as fresh ¢ a child's. Naturally it takes with it al such facial blemishes as freckles, moth patches, lHver gp« pimples. It is pleasant to 8, ANd economical. The face so treated soon looks years younger. To keep the skin free from wrin les there's nothing quite so good as old reliable saxolite lotion, It is on 1y necessary to WMssolve an ounce of powdered saxolite in a half a pint of witch hazel and bathe the face in this as required. . sallownes Boo = err One would not hesitate to | ACTIVITIES OF WOMEN | Nine out of every ten women mar- ry. !

TT IY a ---- WHY EVENING GOWNS HAVE HIGH NECKS In searching for the reasons why several of the new evening gowns have high necks and long sleeves, it is not difficut to put the finger on them. France, where these models were designed, no longer approves of women who wear decollete gowns. Even at the theatres, the smartest Parisienne wears a frock that has tuille extending to the collarbone, if not higher, and this also covers the arms to the wrists. This mode of dress is considered dignified, Another reason why France is sending over so many of these frocks s that the American and Canadian social season are supposed to be over, and our women may desire them for' informal evening gowns, the kind that constitutes a large part of the Continental woman's ward- robe. There is .a growing tendency; to heighten the decolletage in the front with transparent material, €ven though it may be low in the back; the new evening built of embroidered tulle of chiffon Callot will take tulle in three shades of vielet, like orchard, mauve, and wistaria, build it over a lavender lin- ing and drape the tulle to the base of the neck, drop it over the Mack as a cape, let the fullness cover the top of the arms, and cateh it up at the wrists with a bracelet of orchid atin ribbon, \ Other gowns made of tulle in any color, have long, tight, transparent leeves that reach to the wrist and are guiltless of trimming, while Lan- vin puts balloon sleeves of tulle or chiffon into her evening gowns, gath- 'tire them at the wrists into a de ruffie of lace, A BIRTHDAY CAKE, How to Make One Which is ua Real Cake, Weigh seven large eggs (fresh), take their weight in dried flour and a little more than half their weight in sifted sugar. Break the CEES, Tep- arate the yolks from the whites. Beat the former in a bowl, add the susar to them very gradually, together with a little grated lemon rind, a spoonful of orange flower or rosewater or any other suitable flavoring. Add the flour a little at a time and continue to beat the mixture Por twenty min- utes. . Butter a mold, sprinkle pow- dered 'sugar upon the butter, and shake off a)l that will not adhere. Tie a strip of buttered paper round the taf of the mpld to keep the preparas tion from rolling down the sjdes while it is baked. Pour in the cake, three parts; fill the mold with it. When done efiough let it stand a few minutes, shake it well to loosen it, turn it out carefully, cut it in slices when cool one-quarter of an inch thick, spread some jam over thése and place five or 8ix or more slices together, one on top of the other. Whisk together the whites of two or more eggs, according to size of cake; add half a pound of Avely sifted sugar (to the eggs), a'dessertspoon- ful of orange flower water. Whisk the mixture until quite sinooth and spread it over the cake with the back of a spoon. Mark the suape of the pieces into which it is afterward to be cut, Place the cake in a v cool oven to dry the icing. Tide, half an hour to prepare. Two or three drops of coloring will give it a rose tint. 'Send to tabls wih lighted candles, ; bodices are|: EVE AND THE GARDEN, Once upon a time the "Three 1 Children started to have a garden. Edward dug the ground up and Ed- na planted the seeds while little Ethel brought out her watering pot and nearly drowned the seeds be- fore* they had a chance to grow. Ed- ward thought it was best to put a wire fence around the garden so that Eve, their pet rabbit, would not be able to get in and spoil it. Ethel said she was going to go right out and tell the rabbit that she must not zo into the garden, not even oncé, and that night at supper she said she knew Eve would do just as she had told her for she knew she was sure she understood what she said. In a few weeks nearly éverything was growing fine in the garden and Edward was kept busy digging up the weeds. Eric didn't seem to think the garden amounted te much and it was hard work to make him keep out of it, but so far not one thing but some robins and the chil- dren, had been inside the wire fence, One day Ethel was plaving with her dolls on the porch when all at rm once she heard a loud noise out in the back yard near the garden, Out she flew and there, inside of the wire fence was Eve, their rabbit, with her three strange hens, Ive was chasing the hens round and round as fast as she could hop and the hens were flying around cack- ling as loud as possible. Al last Eve made one hop and landed on a hen's back and the other hens flew over the wire fence into their own yard. Eve hung on to the hen's back until she flew over the fence too and then Eve hopped up to Ethel and into her lap as much as to say: "See, | know yon didn't want those hens there and | made them go away." Ethel picked Eve up, went into the house and told her mother about it and Ethel says she knows that Eve understood all she had told her and that she did drive the hens away. Anyway, the hens have never come over into the yard since and if they see Eve anywhere in sight they run and hide as fast as they can. Ed ward says he thinks Eve is a better watchdog than Eric which makes them all laugh. | "Low Cost of Living" Menu | Menu for Sunday BREAKFAST Strawberries and Whipped Cream Shirred Egg» Huttered Tonst Coffee DINNER Pigeon Friecassee Baked Potatoes New: String Heans Onion Salad Maple Frappe SUPPER Salmon Salad Bread Rhubarb and Raisin Marmalade Cookies Tea -------- BREAKFAST Shirred EFggs.~-Sprinkle the bot- tom of ramkins or custard cups with bread crumbs. and break into each an egg.
