Bryn had been over in the stable talking to Joe, who came to milk cvcry evening as punctually a; sunset.

TRY GBEN OB BLUE MASCARA FOR EVENING

Green and blue mascara cer- tainly never should be worn in the daytime, but for evening, one of these might be worth n trial. A yqung blue-eyed _5f,a,ge star always tints her lashes bright blue for eve- nlng, and several screen actresses use green mascara after dnrir.

HOME HINTS

Never place a mall rug on n polished floor at the foot of the stairs unless it is actually necessary there, in which case have it fasten- ed to the floor either with a ‘non- skld" base, or by having the bank of the rug treated by a speoifl process to make it stick to the floor.

Wall brackets give the best light in the room for general entertain- ing. but have plenty of floor outlets for the necessary lamps when you desire the soft shaded light for reading.

Chairs must be comfortable, and not too large for a room.

Soap and linoleum do not "get on together," but if soap must be used at some time, choose o mild soap. Use iukwarm water and not too much of it. and he sure to rinse and dry the floor thoroughly. Un- less the floor Ls in very bad con- dition. there is no need of scrubb-

On guznmcr vacation, wash your own hair. dry carefully in the sun. messaging briskly with a. rough towel. Then dampen ends at the sides and back with very thin wave-set. lotion and roll up on surl- ers. being sure to catch all the fine hairs at the nape of the nook.

If you have had a. proper hair- cut. the ends which make the front roll will fall forward over your face from an ear-to-eor part about. two inches backward from hair- line. simply dampen these ends and put up on curlers. when rolls are dry, brush them over your fin- ger. .
