For years and years the Misses Baetz have mixed with their own hands the certain in- gredients for beauty creams which only specialists know how to produce. Forced to give up the fine art they loved in order to support themselves, these two gentle women learned in- stead, the art of making products for the care of the skin from a well known specialist of that day, and they have refused to commercialize their art by raising prices beyond a legitimate profit or by turning aqver their recipes to strange und unskilled hands. Their sister, the third Miss Baetz, was for many years the nurse and com- panion of Edward MacDowell at Pe- terboro colony. Interested in art and in the artists, Miss Baetz was known as mother to the colony. Her two sisters, whose charming per- sonalities impress everyone coming in contact with them, settled in Gram- ercy park, New York, at the Irving hotel, and after years of work, have evolved methods of making flower drops from the concentrated essences of jasmin, French rose, trailing arbutus, and lilac. Their skin products include astringents, hair tonics suited to indi- vidual scalps, and skin creams. Every bottle that goes out of their laboratory has been prepared by their own hands, even to the 'dainty hand lettered labels on the bottles. Mrs. Ernest H. Fleishchmann of 235 Leicester road, Kenilworth, who has known the sisters for many years, has become so interested in the story of the specialists and the fortune they have renounced that she has opened her house to the "Miss B's" products, and they are on display there, in their Christmas dresses, ready to be sent as gifts. EXHIBITS ANTIQUES "House of Interest" Attracts Many Collectors of Early American Trea- sures to Glencoe By E. T. S. At 312 South avenue, Glencoe, just off Green Bay road, stands a small, gabled house. Its window panes blink cheerfully at the passing trains and motors and some of the hurrying folk in them know that this house harbors precious secrets of by-gone days. For within, one finds a collection of early American antiques, altogether unique. Mrs. Sam B. Thomas has long been a student and collector of rare and un- usual pieces of early American origin. She has but recently started to sell from her own collection. She makes frequent trips to dealers and auctions throughout the country and manages always to bring home something rare, as well as beautiful. One' finds here delightful old chairs and tables, authentic sandwich glass, glowing ruby glass, colorful old prints full of grace and action and fascinat- ing pieces in the lovely dull gray of old pewter. One may always find small pieces of old world interest that make charming gifts. Mrs. Thomas is always glad to know of particular objects any one may want, for which she will make search on her trips. She is happy at all times to show her collection. Mrs. Thomas has just returned from a trip, during which she covered sev- eral states, well known for their an- tique treasures, and has many beauti- ful things to display. Of the seven states which contri- bute university teams to the Mid- Western Conference, Illinois leads with three "Big Ten" universities. A Mormon church, the Mansion House, the Mormon arsenal and other relics of the Mormon heyday in Ilfinois are still to be seen in Nauvoo. TAN ELK.
