THE OSHAWA DAILY uy ¥ ¥ The Women's Corner : h . d omer and the ' During the war and' for a few years following the home wus rare that could boast of truly fine Hinens and if one had 'a wonderful piece of real Irish linen it would more than likely be a small piece, which then cost as much as a full- sized tablecloth now costs, The quality nor beauty of Irish linen can not be excelled and today, since the price of linen is almost down to pre-war level, there is very little excuse for the house- wife not to have a few good pieces in her linen closet. The "trousseau'" may contain damask cloth glares at the assem- bly linen; piles of snowy towels that are towels and not mere poc- ket-handkerchief pretences, and a staggering abundance of those homely, but, oh! so useful neces. sities--dusters, glasscloths and kitchen towels. ! But today's linen list demands a great amount of discrimination. Why? The answer is found in one word only--color, Color is the very keynote of mod- ern furnishings; it is almost as important in the linen cupboard. There are many reasons for this, partly frivolous, partly economic. A grease spot on a sheer white damask cloth glarse at the assem- bly like a baleful eye; the same spot on background of blue will melt into a darker spot of blue and be hardly visible. Nowadays, too, we want to be individual. Color helps us. Even the poorest of us can work out charming little schemes, The secret of successful color scheme is, broadly, not to let them run away with you, Like fire, color is a good servant, but a had master. If a thing does not har- monise leave it severely alone. Blue is almost always a success- ful color; there is something fresh about it and reminiscent of a 'these days is bewilderingly wide. 'of Interest to Po. J Dutch and charming, . but only if you eschew the duller, darker shades of green, and look for the fresh green of the lily-of-the-valley. Yel- lows and oranges are almost al- ways amazingly effective, and are especially to be recommended for breakfast purposes and dull rooms, Pinks and reds are dangerous. Perhaps the first thing that the bride-to-be thinks of in collecting a linen trousseau is table-linen, and the choice laid before her in The modern girl will probably find herself faced with the prob- lem of deciding between cloths or tablemats for best wear; but the answer to that depends upon her individual choice or the surface of her table, If it is beautiful pol- ished' wood, which will reflect the | lustre of silver and glass, she will find it is admirably set off by embroidered linen mats, with per- haps an edging of lace. If, on the other hand, she wishes to protect it from any stray spot, or if she thinks it is not worthy of being displayed, she will find that a damask cloth of the most perfect snow-white glaze is the most dec- orative alternative--always Dpro- viding, of course, she herself has not embroidered or made more elaborate things. Allow for some linen tea-nap- kins, for people are beginning to find that these are essential, par- ticularly in the winter months, when hot buttered toast and muf- fins are the most popular {tems on the tea menu, Sheets are best when they are fine and strong; you cannot go far wrong if you buy a really good, well-known make, Just one tip to the crochet-makers--a half-inch of edging of crochet along the hem of your best sheets is far more distinguished than hemstitching and will wear better and longer. MEASUREMENT OF ~ TEMPERATURE OF BLUSHES IS TAKEN New York, March 7.--The tem- peratures of blushes on a girl's cheek were measured in the pres- ence of the guests at the Science dinner of the American Institute, Only mild blushes were available on the cheeks of the young woman who sat before the diners with u shermopile two feet from her face gistering her passing emotionism, er blushes recorded about five 'me-hundredths of one degree, Far- enheit, an order of blush scarcely sufficient to induce much color. The heat measured is radiation caused by the blood rushing into the cheeks during emotion, Dr. BE. E, Free, who conducted the demonstration, explained that blondes are prone to greater differ- ences of ten. porature range in blushing than are brunettes, It in- dicates, gaid Dr. Free, that on the average blonde blushes are hotter than brunettes, In another demonstration, a rounded chunk of ordinary iron, the size of a fist, was turned into a magnet holding 400 pounds solely by the heat from a small bunsen burner, You'll never get a whiter wash than a Rinso wash Clothes are cleansed with old-fashioned thoroughness in a new-fashioned way Now you can be clothes without feeling your arms and back.
