Summer Millinery.
The summer bonnets are the ARREST
creations" that have yet come
from the milliner's hands. They are
often mere saucers OF sheer tulle pro-
jecting over the eyes, and made with
transparent crown OF chiffon or
gauze, or a perfectly open crown, part
ly yelled by vine Of roses.
The hat illustrated is OF fancy lace
straw in the new shade OF Stanley
brown, with crown OF maize-colored
chiffon, studded with gold and brown
wasps. Large jeweled butterflies stand
up among the folds. With this hat is
worn high ruche OF black lace, trim
med to correspond with the hat.
Shapes already begin to vary from
the toque, and there are many dainty
little English cottage bonnets, in fine
fancy straws and chips, that are trim
med in broad low effects, in contra
distinction to the high styles of trim
ming generally seen, which build the
flat shapes into considerable heighth,
The new sailor hats, with u crown of
ordinary heighth, but sunk in the rim
so that it appears below the rim and
but an inch or less above it, is grace
full style for young ladies. A wide
band of fine flowers conceals the crown
under the brim and forms a halo trim
ming around the face. a navy blue
sahlor in this shape and in purplish
cast of color is trimmed simply, with
q band ofinch-wide black velvet, which
passes around the crown and hangs
down the back in a cluster, streamers
and loops. The hat is finished by
full face trimming of violets or duets.
For regular street wear, the bonnet
may match the costume in
darker shade, or black bonnet
may be worn, according to the fancy
OF the wearer.-Good Housekeeping.
Moths.
To exterminate carpet moths:
Saturate o. large cloth with water
strongly impregnated with ammonia.
After wringing it as dry as possible,
spread upon the carpet, and iron until
thoroughly dry. 1t is not advisable
to press hard as that fattens the nap
of the carpet. Go over the entire
carpet in this manner. The hot
steam not only kills the little pests
and destroys their eggs, but with the
addition OF the ammonia freshens and
brightens the carpet also.
To avoid carpet moths: If you find
no appearance of moths in your carpets,
use an "ounce of prevention" In
other words, after your carpet has
been laid, sponge thoroughly in a
strong solution OF salt and water. 1t
is well, also, to sprinkle salt under
meath the carpet, in dark corners,
under bookcases, couches, ETC., where
the carpet is least used. Above all,
keep your rooms sufficiently light, re-
membering that moths should be
numbered among those wicked
creatures who "prefer darkness rather
than light, because their deeds are
evil. GOOD Housekeeping.
How to Be Happy Old Maid.
To have so much to do that there
is no time for morbid thoughts.
To never think for moment that
you are not attractive, and to make
yourself look as charming as possible.
To be so considerable of the happi-
ness of others that it will be reflected
back to you as from looking-gass.
To never permit yourself to grow
old, for by cultivating all the graces
OF heart, brain and body, age will not
come upon you.
To believe that a life-work has been
mapped out for you, that it is near
you, and do that which your hands
find for you.
To remember that the happy old
maid is the one member of n family
who, not having any other claims on
her, can be Gods own sunshine to
to those in sorrow or in joy.-From
The Ladies' Home Journal.
