DO YOU KNOW

That Alargaret Quirk (IGB Avenue), has chic little huts suitable for race wear?

That a teaspoonful of ammonia added to a bowl of warm water removes fruit stains from the lingers?

That Aliss Bathgate, milliner, makes tweed hats to order for schoolgirls as well as adults? Address, Guyton St.

That coloured handkerchiefs should be soaked in cold salt water for a short time before they are washed? This will prevent the colours from running or fading.

That matrons’ hats, large fittings in navy, black, wine and brown, are now showing at Alargaret Quirk’s, 168 Avenue?

The chamois leather gloves will not lose their colour when washed if water in which orange rind has soaked overnight is used?

That some smart hats for matrons have arrived at Aliss Bathgate’s, milliner, Guyton Street? They are in large and mqdium fittings and good value at 14s 9d.

That gum arable crystals dissolved in hot water in the proportion of two ounces to a quart of water are used as a stiffening agent for fine muslins, and a still weaker solution for giving a slight stiffness to silks?

That you can have your felt, velour or velvet hats remodelled at Aliss Bathgate’s, Guyton Street?

That mothers who have several children about the same age will find it a good plan to mark each child’s stockings? Choose brightly-coloured wools and with a darning needle run two or three stitches of the wool (a different colour for each child), along the top of the hose. If this method is adopted much inconvenience may be avoided.
