Al’- PEARIING IN MANY DIFFERENT COLORS Color is the new note in ladle accessories and the handbag is the local point, and this important item is available in 2O different col- Ira. Of course navy is the color this Spring and in soft calfskin you are able to match handbag to shoes and gloves. The Canadian manufactur- ars have made an effort taco-ordin- ate these colors with the allied trades. The navy handbag and accessor- ies are highlighted by fashion ex- perts for usewvith navy, grey and tan outfits, and it does help to brighten up and change the effect of an outfit. There are any number of other colors as accessories to add colors to your new wardrobe. Zinia-the new tan that goes well ‘with navy, black, or tan. Grey has maintained its position as s lead- ing color, then there are the light blues, lime, coral. gold. fuchia, and different tones and hues of all these basic colors. Of ‘course the color of the bag af- fects the style that may be carried. but you will find that the smartest handbags are being swung from top handieswand are small. You will also see shoulder bags, very large. Despite the definite handle trend. there is a growing trend towards the elongated under-arm style. Plastic calf, plastic suede. lambskin are being featured Ipring. and this LOW-CUT SPRING SHOES FIATTER- THE ANKLE Ankles are very much in the Spring picture, according to both ihoe and hosiery stylists. Increas- ld feminity and daintiness of shoe style, combined with the continu- ing popularity of the low hemline. make ankle trimness and neatness more important than ever tn the lashion-conscious Canadian woman. She will be thrilled to find how the new Spring colors in conjunc- tion with the flattering, slenderis- ing charm of full-fashioned hosiery will tend to emphasize and accent ankle daintiness. The revealing shell shoe silhou- ette is slated to continue, and its low cut around the ankle enables the close-fitting loveliness of full- fashioned hosiery to be.fuily ap- preclated. What's more, Spring shoes will feature such eye-catch- ing feminine frivolities as vamp cut-outs, wing backs and novel lncings and strappings. These, too, will focus attention on the all-im- portant ankle and lower calf. No doubt about it, the lower hemline. plus the increased feminlty of footwear, are creating a very spe- cial and intriguing kind of "leg in- ' terest." Just-like his Victorian ancestors. the modern male will find his eye drawn irresistibly to "a trim pair of ankles!" But. unlike her Vic- torian ancestorl. the modern woman will have the wondrous assistance of nylon and silk full-fashioned hosiery to increase the beauty of her ankles. The variety of weights and col- ors in the new Spring lines gives every woman an opportunity to shop for her exact needs, whether they be for party, day or business wear. This Spring, the style-con- scious shopper will choose her full- fashioned stocking wardrobe confi- dent that their skilfully contrived lines and delicate beauty will put the proper finishing touch tn her entire ensemble. Scarfs have new tricks nil their own: the pussy-cat bow, the tinier sizes, the tidy solid colors, the polka dot ascots. chiffon or neat- patterned squares. flchus and stoles. DAILY HOUSEHOLD HINT . To prevent milk from scorching. rinse with cold water the saucepan in which it is to h» heated. If you like onions-Jim not their after-taste. try a piece of lemon as a mouth freshener. It'll put a good taste in your mouth after, you've been eating onions. For a pumpkin with a different twist, try sprinkling a handful of pecan halves on ton of the pie just before popping it into the oven to bake. It's not only lovely to look at, but delightful to eat. If boiled potatoes look damp and sqggy~here’s a way to fluff theln lip. Toss them in a put over, a flame until the potatoes appear mealy. Do it quickly and before adding anything to the potatoes. , Dorothy Dix Says- on page 3i (Continued looking, no cleversr, no tenderer, kinder, more considerate than other men, no whit superior fo the men you meet every day, yet somehow you know that he is IT, and you freely lay at his feet all the treasures pf your heart that you have refused to other men. a 0f course, there are some women who are celibate by nature. They so incapable of any feeling for a man stronger than friendship. They ten marry because they fear the loneliness of spinsterhood, but they make cold and unloving wives, and always find their husbands a bore 1nd a burden. Nothing but a great love offsets the inevitable sacrifices of matri- lnony, so I think you would be wise not to marry until you are su're lhat you have found Mr. Right. DEAR DOROTHY DIX: Why does a mother sacrifice her daughters lo a son who is s black sheep? My mother is an intelligent woman, but Iha has made my sister and myself work to support our lazy drunkard if a brother. Why are mothers like this? A GOAT ANSWER: Because they are mothers. Perhaps it is pity. Perhaps is shame. Perhaps it is a mother's recognition that she is to blame, a certain extent, for the sins of the prodigal son, but always he is a one for whom the fatted calf is killed and to whom the good ones h the family are sacrificed. It is always the black sheep that is mother's pet lamb. mbakeci with FLEISCHMANWS YEAST ‘Just righih-from golden-brown crust to the last: tender munbi Perfect baking results are possible .Jus1' met-n" ! every time, if‘ you use dependable, , Fleischmannls Yeast.

The third night they distinctly heard the sound of a saw in wood. but this- time no object could be sighted. The sawing noise lasted fully five minutes before it ceased. Again Carl sprang out of bed, lighted a lamp and, made a thor- ough search of the room, which showed not the slightest sign of disturbance. Now we come to something more startling, namely: the sound of footsteps. They began about three weeks after the van Burens moved in, and continued at irregular in- tervals during their six months‘ residence. Sometimes the steps would be in the attic and sometimes in an ad.- jolning room, but nb intruder‘ was ever spotted. If ever there was an invisible ghost, this was it. It sounded like the walk of a large man, and yet no form was present. By this time the van Burens had become so accustomed td the tap- pings, the lights and the footsteps that little attention was paid to any of them. _ Whenever these occurrences were aired before their neighbors, they only got a laugh for their efforts; so they quit talking to others about their ghost. one Toward the end of the sixth month-they were sitting in the living room that night-there was an awful crash that shook the cottage to its very foundations. It sounded like the roof caving in. Carl looked at his wife; a slirfht trembling had come over his body. “Did you hear a crash?" he asked. Mary hadn't heard a thing though they were seated only a few feet apart. For some unfathomable reason only one of them had heard thatawful noise. Carl reached for a lantern and was just in the act of touching a match to the wick when the door opened with a loud bang and across its threshold strode the form of a huge man. Carl and Mary were now terri- fied for the first time since they had occupied the haunted house — so terrified that they sat in their chairs, shivering ‘and speechless. The apparition crossed the floor. gave one bloodcurdling shriek and then disappeared through the op- posite wall. ‘ Here our legend ends. What could have caused the strange lights and taps‘!
