What IL Hostess Wants,

"A hostess who wants to make her dim
hers popular may have them as simple
as she likes, but there are some laws
she must observe as strictly and with
as much fear as were those of the
Modes and Persians.
She must not have the naperv
starched until the man with a Young
lmustache feels that every time he puts
his napkin TO his lips he is risking the
pride of his life.
She must not bake what ougl. to be
roasted, not serve Il flIet until nobody
knows whether it is a rubber shoe or a
piece of ollcloth.
She must not have a servant who is
Interested in anything except good SER
vice. lie shouldn't smile if the wittiest
man in the world told the funniest
story. nor should he appear Interested
II II political secret on which hinged
the future of Ireland was heard by
him.
She should count the sweets of the
least Importance, and not believe that
bad dinner can he bolstered up by q
very much decorated cake or puddina.
She should see that her coffee is as
clear as her conscience, and as strong as
her love-
She should not ask anybody whether
they Will have cream or not, for people
who go out to dinner should learn to do
without it.
She should not attempt to elaborate
menu. for she wishes each dish to
reach the height of perfection, and
when the successful dinner is achieved
she should give the cook a large dose Of
encouragement, medicine pleasant to
take.
The woman who understands the
art of dinner giving is the woman who
Is past mistress of the art Of keeping
her husband at home

Fashion Notes.

Light cloth riding habits will be much
worn.
Silver gray will be the rage for walk
ing coats.
The ideality Of costume is greatly
owing to it's trimmings. Women ought
to invest in these with care and cousid-
GRAFTON.
Jewels are worn artistically arranged
on a broad band or scarf Of velvet pass
ing across the body from shoulder to
shoulder.
The most striking trimming of the
seasons importation is the Tuscan straw
passementerie. 1t is specially good on
cream, suede, violet or green materials
Is considered vulgarly ostentatious ON
black.
Suede, the new tone which is dis.
placing both ecru and beige. will be
much trimmed with brown gold and
straw color. An entire wool gown Of
it with brown bolero jacket and a
golden passementerie girdle will be
effective.
Pale blue, rose and green is the daring
combination OF bridesmaid Dress The
maid OF honor wears the dress of all
three tints, then follows bridesmaid in
pale blue, a second in old rose, and a
third in delicate green, each carrying
flowers to correspond.
BOdices still have the most elaborate
fronts and sleeves; in fact, the bodice
is by far the most important feature of
the modern gown. There are many
styles, but the jacket front. the pointed
front or the surplice front, Tapped from
side to side. remain the most effective.
An exquisite toilet of the new Parma
violet velvet is shown for dinners, with
full set OF amethysts 10 accompany
it. The gown is trimmed with pale
yellow, straw and gold ornaments, and
the jewels set in an elaborate frame
work of yellow gold, wrought in IN an
tique pattern.
The things which are coming out for
the spring are of the most delicate or
| der with the exception Of the gay plaids.
Grays, yellows, violets, greens. suedes.
will prevail, and, although so dainty,
will be of more positive effect than the
neutral tinted cloths which usually ap.
pear as the herald OF spring fashions.

Suggc stlOns for the Household.

Clean your plaster casts by making
some cold starch. and dipping them into
1t, brushing them when dry.
The lustre of morocco leather NAV
be restored by vanishing it over with
the white of an egg. which should be
applied with a sponge.
The softening effects OF carbonate of
soda in hard water is greatly increased
if a half hour is allowed to elapse be.
fore the water is used. This gives time
for the separation Of the lime and the
magnesia.
Give your oil-cloths light coat Of
varnish when putting them down, re-
newing the varnish each time before
they get dingy. This care will keep
them bright, and they will also last
much longer.
When packing away furs, they should
be sprnkled literally with camphor
gum. and inclosed in paper bags, which
should be pasted up. Plush cloaks NAV
be treated in the anne manner, or sewed
up carefully in q sheet.
Paper bags in which many articles are
sent from the grocers, should be saved
for use when backing stove. The
hand can be slipped into one of these,
and the brush handled just as we'll, and
the hands will not be soiled.

walking should be in bright sunlight.

|AhtohS ana Cleopatra.

Though my scared and veteran legons

Unjust perish like Roman
Die the great Triumvir still.
Let not Caesars servilc minions
Mark the lion thus laid low;
Twas no foeman's arm that fclled him.
Twas his own that struck the blow,
His. who, pillowed on thy bosom,
turned aside from glory's ray,
Ills, who. drunk with thy curesses,
Madly threw II world away.

Where the noble spouse Octavia
Weeps within her widowed home,

That her blood, with mine commingled,
Yet shall mount the throne Of kings.
And for thee, star-eyed Egvtian,

With the >plcndors OF thy smile.

Mems Women.

"What are mems women'." asked
che most charming of her sex. men
ire forever saying of so-and so, whom,
oy the way, l detest, that she is "a
mans woman Teach me how to be-
come one, please. Wherein lies the
charm? Must l smoke like your Vene-
tians! Asst talk horse? Must adopt
all the other of your dreadful ways?"
Certainly not, dear madam. Yet it is
quite true that while one mans ideal
differs most fortuitously from anoth-
er's, as one star diifereth from another
star IN glory, there are those who are
known among us as "men's women"
for happy combination Of qualities
somewhat difficult to describe. "a
mans woman" to begin with, is old
enough to know the world thoroughly;
yet, though she need never have been
beautiful, she must have kept her
youth. She is in no sense a light
woman, neither is she over-intellectual:
she would not speak Greek even if she
could.
She is n creature Of infinite tact,
whom every being with the outward
semblance of man interests pro-
foundly. With him she is always at
her best, and she contrives to get out of
him the best there is. She listens well
and grows sympathetic as she listens.
Has he a special weakness? she half
tempts him to believe it is q virtue.
An adept in the subtlest forms of flat
terry, she would force the meanest Of us
to shine even when he is i'll at ease.
And yet, above all, she remains sincere,
Her interests in him is real, and sur
wives the fleeing moments. He is a
man; that is to say, for her, the bright
est page in natures book. She respects
convention, knowing we'll when she
may venture to be unconventional: vet
she is unapproachable and irreproach-
able. In return he adores her.
This is all very well, you say, but l
don't like that woman. Dear madam,
as it never enters into her calculation
that you should, she does not take such
pains with you. She makes dear foes
among you, of course. Sometimes,
even, she does not escape calumpy,
But this. having no actual basis, falls
of its own weight, and in the end, as
you yourself will admit, you stand in
awe of her. Your question proves it.
l have tried to tell you why we like her
and If you must have a word of defini-
ton, here it is: She is one who has the
gift to study men, and who, having
studied many, finds the process still
amusing. If you lack this primal re
quisite, abandon the unequal contest.
You will never become like her by a
servile imitation of her tricks and her
manners. In spite of these, which set
you so against her, let ME entreat YOU
to believe her deserving woman
indeed.
