Mothers pay too little attention to the head
gear of their infants and children. Who
has not seen an impatient and testy nurse
hastily tying on bonnet or cap for child,
while she perhaps crumpled the ear on itself
or pushed it out SO that it stood at right
angles from the head: Whenever this is
done the ultimate position of the ear in adult
life is affected. Ii is not to be wondered at
that SO many ears stand at right angles from
the head or hang in so lackadaiscal manner
by their attachments. The prevention of
these errors will lie in a careful personal SUI
pervision of the hesdgear. If a tendency on
the part of the ears to stand off at too bold
an angle be noted in infancy, it may be cor
rected by SO arranging the bonnets and caps
so that the ear lies flat against the head 1t
would not be amiss even for cloth to be
bound around the forehead at night, when the
child sleeps, so that the upper portion of the
pima be taken in by the bandage; if these
procedures be persevered in for some time
the NAL position of the ears may be greatly
remedied.
The thimble was originally called a thumb
bell by the English, because worn on the
thumb, then humble, and finally its pres
ent name, relates Good Housekeeping
Thimbles were formerly made only of iron
and brass, but in comparatively late years
they have been made of gold, silver, steel,
horn, ivory and even glass and pearl. In
China beautiful carved pearl thimbles are
seen, bound with gold and with the end of
gold. The first thimble introduced into
Siam was bridal gift from the Queen to the
King; it is shaped like lotus bud, made of
gold and thickly studded with diamonds ar
ranged to spell the Queens name.
a noted French chief makes coffee by
pouring boiling water on the ground ber
ries; after fitering, the water is again
boiled and again poured on the coffee; and
finally third time He does not boil the
coffee and water together. nor put the
coffee in cold water and let it come
to boil. To make good tea,
he says, you must pour boiling water on
it and throw it out Immediately. Then
pour one third of the boiling water required,
put the pot over the steaming apparatus and
then add another third and finally the last
third, repeating the steaming, in order to let
it draw without boiling.
There is perfect mania for passementer-
les of all kinds, which will be used in greater
quantities than ever before this winter, and
are adapted to all sorts of dresses, the most
unpretending as well as the richest There
are bands, plaques, pears, bullets and spikes,
netted jockeys or shoulder pieces, small fig
ures of the size of half-dollar or dollar,
which are studded about singly or are linked
together with cord, ard girdles narrow and
straight, or deep and pointed. Yet there are
so many bordered stuffs that it would seem
as though no other trimming could be re-
quired The borders find their use in bands
around the bottom or up and down skirts.
