pomegranate blossoms" "And a few
diamonds" added the unmeroiful Felix,
replacing his gloves in his pocket; and
taking up comb, he was soon deeply
absorbed in fulfilling his "inspirations. +"
So much for the lordly hair-dresser. His
price for his valuable time was almost in
credible. The duchess went to the ball
immeasurably happy, because her exquis-
lite couture was one Of the marvels Of Par
is-a study by the superb Felix.

HOW TO KEEP SILK.

Silk articles should not be folded in
white paper, as the chloride of lime used
in bleaching the paper will probably i'm
pair the color of the silk. Brown or blue
paperis better; the yelloWish smooth India
is the best of all. Silk intended for dress
should not be kept long in the house before
it is made up, as laying in folds will have
a tendency to impair its durability by
causing it to cut or split, particularly if the
silk has been thickened with gum. Thread
lace wells are very easily cut; but dresses
Of velvet should not be laid by with any
weight above them; if the nap of thin vel
vet is laid down, it is not possible to raise
it up again. Hard silk should never be
wrinkled, because the thread is easily
broken in the crease, and it can never be
rectifed. the way to take wrinkles out of
silk scarfs and handkerchiefs, is to moisten
the surface evenly with sponge and some
weak glue, and then pin thesilk with some
toilet pins to mattress or feather bed,
taking pains to draw out the silk as tight
as possible. When dry, the wrinkles will
have disappeared; The reason Of this is
obvious to every person. Some silk articles
should be moistened with weak glue or
gum water, and the wrinkles ironed out
with hot fat-iron on the wrong side.

Many persons, living, in Old-fashioned
houses, would like to have their windows
heightened. This can be done in appear
ance, if curtains are used. Make them
with standing rufle, or pulled at the top,
and fasten on to strip of board as long as
the window is wide. Nail this to the wall
as high as you want it, using stout nail in
each end. The shades can also be attached
to the strip, under the curtains.
