A Women In Japan Have Few Chores Mipimum Time Spent in Cook- - ing and Dishwashing A minimum of time and labor is required to get the Japanese family started every morning. Bed quilts are rolled up and put away in a closet. Chopsticks and bowls are rinsed out in either hot or cold water and left to dry, says the National Geogra<ic Maga- zine, Even the daily cooking takes little time. Fish and rice are the staples. Fish is often eaten raw, and rice may be cooked at any time and set aside in a wooden tub to be served cold. Vegetables are few, Peas are cooked in the pod, and the big white carrots and cahbages are pickled. Other household duties are quickly done. Except among the well-to-do, the general custom of going 'to public baths and buying ready-made clothing frees the women from many hours of house- work. The cotton kimonas are washed out and hung to dry on poles run through the sleeves, Stretching on the pole is the only ironing necessary. Country Women In Fields The country woman, after giv- ing the family a quick breakfast of rice, pickles and hot tea, ties the baby on her back and makes for the fields. With kimona tucked up, she engages in any kind of farm labor. Sometimes she works alone, more often side by side with husband or son. In the spring she hoes or weeds, transplants the young rice, or cuts the winter wheat. In autumn she moves with bent back down the field with a sickle, helping menfolk cut and thresh the rice--the major crop of Japan. Two farm jobs seem exclusively hers, the picking of tea leaves and the tending of silk- worms, Rich, Piquant Hues Featured Fruit Tones Dominate in Paris Collections for Autumn and Winter; Greys arc Assured For Fall. PARIS.--The winter collections introduce many novel color gamuts, both rich and piquant. But buyers and smart women have the last 'word concerning their style per- A few stayers are all of the wine as well as many of the fruit tones, such as currant, mul- berry, plum, prune, raisin, date and amethyst. Lichen and fern-greens are quietly maintaining their style ground. Grays are assured color facts; all shades are good (from fron to pearl; and that holds good for all hours. Greys tinged with blue or amethyst are especially notable. Elephant-gray is import- ant especially for accessories of sucde-surfaced leathers, as shoes, bags and belts; these accompany green, wine, purple, red-brown or black costumes. Brick-reds, Violets Among colors worth watching are dull and bright peacock, as well as old gold. Smart comers are the shades between red and brown; operitif, old port, Maderia, sherry, vermouth, rusty-reds, Pompelian, terra-cotta, carnelian and the wood tones, such as mahogany, rosewood and sandalwood. Rosy Georgian brick-reds are prevalent. Soldier- red jackets, trimmings or sports costumes entirely of this shade lend bright accents to the style pic- ture. Cerise and magenta are wag- ing a violent offensive against their paler sisters; Florentine pink is sure to triumph, Violets are seen everywhere in overwhelming quantities. Sixth Sense Is Aid To Women Household Experience And Child Raising Qualifies .. For Public Life An inherent "sixth sense" and ages of experience in running households and raising children qualify women especially for par- ticipation in public affairs, said Mrs. Millard E. Tydings in a talk at Baltimore last week. "It has long been my contention that women's place in the political scene is becoming more and more important," she said. "When you consider that it has been only 20 years we've had the vote, it is phenomenal the extent to which women are participating in the at- fairs of their community, state and country," She said that women's "sixth sense" and the common sense de- rived from the household and ild-rearing problenis "prevented em from being fooled. easily. Men can be, she intimated, be. cause they haven't had such valu- able experience, * RTE SRE Table knives.--=If' handles are stained, a good rubbing with a soft cloth sprinkled with peroxide of hydrogen will restore them to their original color. . Promenade : | Deck . : by Ishbel Ross -- CHAPTER XXIII Joan was dead, but things did not end there. He must rouse Dick Charlton, who was ogviously the person. to handle this. A knock on his door brought Dick out, his book still in his hand. "Come quick, Charlton," said Macduff, "Joan Foster is dead. She jumped into the pool. It was drain- ed, for landing tomorrow." For once in his life, words tumbl- ed from Macduff's lips without de: liberation, His eyes were bloodshot behind the impersonal glare of his spectacles. Dick went white and caught at his arm, Without a word .he followed Macduff across the cor- ridor and passed from brilliant light into the darkness of the pool. Briefly he hung over the edge, then covered his face with his hand. Macduff stretched out an arm and gripped him round the shoulders. "It's all right, old man," he said, realizing that the girl had meant something in Charlton's life. "It would have been hell for her, had she lived." "She came to my room tonight. I shut the door in her face." The words were squeezed through the clesed teeth of Dick. He pulled him- self together. He was the chief of- ficer. "I must report at once to Cap- tain Baring," he said, automatical- ly. Once more Dick looked at Joan, whose pale boody was moving very softly with the rise and fall of the boat. Her rhinestones shone like a cats' eyes through the green gloom.

Send your order to Anne Adams, Room 426, 73 West Ade- laide St., Toronto, A dark trickle spread over the tiles. Macduff went down to his cabin, which was as austere as when he had sailed. He had spurned the spears of Borneo, the leopard skins of Darjeeling, the mandarin robes of China, and was landing empty- handed. He turned on the lights, to shake off the feeling that he had been staring for hours into a dark- ened cave. The sea rolled smoothly under the porthole, but the night was black and moonless. With an effort he forced the dead girl out of his thoughts. In a few hours now he would be back in Gramercy Park and Angela would be on her way to England as_he was reaching home. Would her heart stand the strain of her meeting with Wynant? And would the cad consider her health in his anxiety to shake her off, now that he had met a seventeen-year- old whom he wanted to marry? 'Strange, strange, strange, thought Macduff for the hundredth time, that a woman like Angela should love a man like Wynant! And Jen- ny wild about Rumford, and wild enough to have squeezed herself out through the porthole for love of him. Macduff got up and examin- ed the brass ring. How in hell had she managed to do it? That was something he never would be able to understand. He'd see how far he could push himself through, and what the water was like from a porthole at night. Catching the rim, he pulled himself up by his arms. His head went out, and he saw the water below, smooth as black marble, but he could get no farther. His shoulders balked him at once. "Thin as she was," he thought, "I still don't see how she did it. She must have had nerve, and also the strength of desperation." With a sharp recoil he thought of Joan again, and wondered if her body were still being rocked on the tiles, He bezan to undress, hanging his tie on the rack, folding his trousers carefully, putting his coat on a hanger. Every move took time. At last he donned his striped pyja- mas and pulled down the covers of his brass bed. Climbing between the sheets, he lay on his side, think- ing and smoking. Tomorrow they would land. Damned nuisance, cus- toms and all that bother! Angela wouldn't be there, but on her way to England. How strangely Joan's beads had flashe' in the green light! The only thing about her that had seemed alive. Macduff reached out for his bottle, and then poured himself a wee doch-an-dor- rach. He downed it straight and-put out the lights, but his pipe still glowed in the dark. Angela was an exceptional woman, She made him feel at times that life was superb, and that he could write much bet- ter if she were always near him. Without any talk, she inspired a man to effort. The glow of his pipe grew feebler. At last he banged it out on the washstand, sighed and settled himself for sleep. He could hear a grinding below that erunch- ing sound of the anchor chain he had heard so often lately, and al- ways for new ports, new scenes, new faces. The engines were in re- verse; the boat was swinging right around. They must be at Quaran- tine! That meant home. They would lie there for the rest of the night. Macduff rolled over to the wall. The throbbing ceased at last, and stillness descended on the ship broken by the laughter and cries of the last night revellers. Their voices, drowned before by the pounding sound of the boat in mo-_ tion, were strangely strident now. The flying steps of excited girls could be heard along the corridors. Everything seemed extraordinarily clear, now that the ship had anch- ored. Macduff felt as if he had just emerged from the Cave of the Winds, At last he fell asleep. Angela's name was on his lips when he wakened five hours later, looking as hard as a rock, sober and fresh. His first thought was, "I'll soon be saying goodbye." Then he remembered Joan, with a catch of his breath, Ghastly! He was sor- ry for Charlton. When his steward came with hig coffee, he cursed him because it was cold. Dressing him. self with care, he selected a dark green tie that Angela had helped him to buy in Manila. along the corridor and out on deck, to find that they were moving 8low- ly up the bay in the haze of the early morning. The shore and the water seemed deadly dull after the sharp contrasts of the tropics. And there was nothing to the neutral landscape to excite the eye, until the skyscrapers came into view. The passengers did not look like He walked themselves this morning, for they were all togged out in their city clothes. The celebrants of the night before were slowly coming to life, feeling sick and depressed. Couples who would soon be parted hung to- gether at the rail, watching the en-' croaching shore line with dismay. One youth was fumblingly frying to say good-bye to a girl whom he now adored. Soon he would be meeting his bride of a year, and their baby, born a month ago, His hand was plucking nervously at his compan- fon's coat. Their glances were tel- ling their story, but nobody cared. Angela was there -- cool, composed in a black tailored costume and a small black hat, with a fur around her shoulders. Her face was drain- ed of colour. As usual, she had dreamed through the night of Jen- ny's face and her thin, pale hands clutching at that water. It dawned on Macduff that none of them knew about Joan, not even Angela. He moved over towards her. (Concluded Next Week) Pleasant Voice 'Radiates Charm How You Say It Is Most Impor- tant--Reading Aloud Good Practice It's a mistake for any girl to work hard to improve her figure, hair, skin and her tate in clothes but ignore completely the fact that she has an improperly placed, un. pleasant voice. Because, no mat. ter how attractive she is, unless her voice has a fairly soothing ef- fect on others, they just aren't go ing to listen to her--not for long, anyway. Unless the cells in the lower part of the lungs are made to do their work, the voice will lack quality of tone. Proper Breathing Necessary Therefore, one good way to begin a voice-improvement campaign is to do a breathing exercise regular' ly until you breathe' correctly all of the time without thinking about it. Simply press your. palms against your sides just above your waist. line. Now take a' breath so deep that hands are forced wider apart. In other words try to expand your chest at the sides instead of in front. Exhale vigorously, pressing hands Into your body as the 'air leaves your lungs. 7 Do practice speaking slowly and enunciating correctly. Just read aloud for 15 'minutes every day. Go to your room, close the door, then read. Listen to yourself and try to decide whether you have a habit of raising your voice at the end of every sentence or just what you do that probably annoys others. You're Incomplete Without Gloves This Season, Whether. You Be Dressed In Sports Or Evening Attire Tis amazing what the lack of gloves will do to a smart ensem- ble. For ages, it seems, fashion- ists have been literally pieacinag about the importance of gloves in the field of accessories, stressing their value to the compléte cos: tume. There 1s no outfit * complete without gloves, whether it be in the category of sports or fuli dress regalia. When more women ac- cept this fact, the impulse to be dressier will be stronger than ever before. It is too casy to slip into slov- enly habits, and how any woman can go shopping downtown with- out gloves is more than we can fathom, for certainly their hands come in contact with surfaces where hundreds of other hands have touched.

Probably the most northerly white wedding ever celebrated in the Dominion, took place at Arctic Bay on the northern shores of Baf- fin Island last week, when Allan Robertson Scott, Hudson's Bay Company post manager married Eileen Christina Wallace. The bridegroom was formerly of Forgue, Scotland, and the hride is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Jas. Wallace of Peterhead, Scotland. The ceremony was held in the sa- loon of the Government supply ship Nascopie, now on fits annual Arc- tic tour. Flowers, Arctic Popples Flags and Arctic poppies, picked by Eskimo children, decorated the saloon. The ceremony was per formed by Rev. A. Fleming, Angli- can bishop of the Arctic. Pagsengers of the Nascopie, ships officers and six red coated Royal Canadian Mounted Police attended the wedding for which the bride travelled more than 7,000 miles. The wedding was held about 400 miles north of the Arctic Circle and 1,100 miles from the North Pole. Canada's First Woman Pilot Mrs. Daphne Shelfoen of Ham- ilton, Ontario, Passes All Tests of Civil Aviation Mrs. Daphne Shelfoon, member of the Hamilton Aero Club, is be- lieved to be the first woman in Canada to qualify for a public transport airplane pilot's certifi- cate.. It was announced she had passed successfully all tests of the department of civil 4viation and that she shortly would' receive her certificate. Possession of the certificate will entitle Mrs. Shelfoon to pilot ressenger planes, but she said she does not expect to take over the controls of an air liner. Her hus- band is one of 73 Canadians hold- ing a transport pilot's license and the couple .is believed to be the first in Canada tb receive such a certificate. = Native of New Brunswick, Mrs. ° Shelfoon went to Hamilton a few months ago.- To qualify for the license she had to fly' "blind" over a cross-country course, with only instruments to guide her. Last July 1 Mrs. Shelfoon escaped death when a plane in which she was riding was 'struck in mid-air by a plane piloted by Homer Chapple, killed in the accident. Christies Biscuit "here's a Christie Biscuit for every taste" Daytime Dresses For Fall Stress Youthful Lines. Skirts Are Short, Necklines High --Plenty of 'Styles To Choose From NEW YORK.--New fall daytime dresses dramatize natural feminine curves and are, for the most part, essentially youthful. Daytime skirts are quite short (14 to 16 inches from the floor, de. pending on the shape of your legs). The majority are flared, although straight, slim versions and - those wit? spaced pleats are featured, . too. Bodices are fitted te accentu- ate the bosom, make the waistline tiny and hips slim. High necklines take the spotlight. Shoulders are very definitely square, and long sleeves are favored by most coutur- fers.

Chocolate - contains a considerable amount of starch as well as cocoa butter and it cannot be added successfully to a plain cake recipe without chang- ing the amounts of some of the other ingredients. Cocoa should never be substituted in any recipe: which calls for chocolate because chocolate is so much richer in cocoa butter than cocoa, it makes 'a richer, more tender cake and one which remains moist longer.
