was reckless in ordering champagne. IL

But at last ] went out to luncheon one day

him. but never mind bis name. He ordered

economic. Finally he spoke of the wine,
and said it was the one he always drank.

And the young man, says Clara Belle in

its price makes it fashionable beverage.
A pretty visiting dress for debutante is
OF very light gray cloth trimmed with sill
yer fox. The neck of the jacket is open,
showing a light blue silk corsage with
jeweled collar. A gray hat trimmed with
the silver. fox fur and an aigrette of blue
feathers completes this becoming costume.
Every age has its revenges, says the
Washington Star, and the married woman
of IS to 40 may lay the fiattering JUNCTION to
her soul that she may wear these rich and
heavy materials, while the young person
must content herself with himsy and sleazy
tulles, gauZes, crepons, bengalines aud soft
| silks. Lace, too, is another one of the mar
ried woman's revenges. She may revel in
it. Its delicate web may trim her silk and
satin skirt, ripple down the front of her
corsage, or bubble over on the line of decol-
lotage and at the sleeves.
l saw one Of our well-known married
ladies, only few years ago a much feted
society belle. attired in a sky-blue faille,
and around the cutout was arranged, fichu-
like, delicious piece of old point. The
effect to me was perfectly bewildering
| The lace impaired look of chiseled marble
to her beautiful shoulders. These delicate
webs have always possessed singular power
of fascination over man as we'll as woman
for scarcely less than q hundred years ago
the courtier was as particular about his lace
jabot and cuffs as the most lace-loYing
married woman Of to-day Who has not
read of the great French writer, Button,
who would not sit down TO work until fresh
lace had been set in the sleeves OF his coat
And who does not RENE .nber how in the
romances of Dumas the officers OF the royal
guard were accustomed to garniture the
soft leather of their boot tops with Venetian
point lacea
But have dwelt long enough on the
glories Of the married woman's costumes
and it behooves me to bear in mind that
our queen is put to death when she passes
%. Nothing counts save youth in the king
dom of fashion.
No cook stove, says the New York Trib-
une, though 1t is in continual use, should
have fresh coat OF backing applied oftener
than once a month, though every stove
should be polished off with stove brush
every morning before the cooking begins
When a fresh coat of backing is applied
monthly remove the old coat by rubbing
off the stove when 1T Is warm, but not hot
with a rag dipped in kerosene oil. This re-
moves all grease stains. Apply the new
coat of blacking when the stove Is cold
using cold coffee instead Of water for mix
J ing the backing. Be careful not to bIackeu
any of the stove edges which are of polished
iron or any of the knobs or other nicke
, work, but polish freely by using
a securing soap or brick dust fol
the polished iron and whiting OF
= any silver soap for the nickel work. After
the stove is thoroughly polished wipe It of
, with a dry, clean rag to remove any dus
of tho backing. After this polishing al
that is necessary is to keep a stove cloth a
the side Of the stove to wipe up spots o.
grease before they are burned in and make
= a more enduring stain, and to 20 over ths
stove with polishing brush in the morniue
while the fire Us coming up. Thus witt
5 little care a stove may be kept in prim,
| order, unless the cook is one of those I'M.
happy slovens that spills or boils over every
thing she takes hold of. Cooking which i
r done in a methodical manner does not spill
, on the stove. There is no surer indication
Q of household sloven than an ill-kept cool
? stove.
| On her visit few days ago, says tn

. American Art Association to look over tn
| Seney collection, Sarah Bernhardt wore

s black lace hat, with garniture of violets
r surmouuted the loose coil of her auburn
hair, and just where hat and collar joine,
/ was twisted around the head a straigh
t scarf of black dotted lace. She was lookinl
p remarkably well; her complexion had
Q ruddy glow, her lips rivaled the ripest o
cherries, and parted frequently over daz
t cling white teeth, and her eyes were tn
gentian's violet blue.
What struck the casual observer in tn
a great actress face was its artifciality. Sh
