WoMAN.s UNDERWEAR.


Garments That are Both Dainty and
omfortable.
Just what sort of underwear to as
sumo is one question that troubles the
average woma,' very much. She doesn't
want to wear SO much that it will be
bulky, and she doesn't want to wear
too little for fear she will catch cold.
She tries first one and then another
shaped garment; and the wise woman
Is she who, having at last hit upon that
which is most comfortable. makes it
most dainty and assumes 1t for good.
Very little linen is used nowadays for
ones lingerie, the preferen, being
given to cambria, victoria lawn, MAIN
sock or percaie. The last is noted with
tiny dots, or wee flowers in pink, blue
or lavender upon the white ground.
Then when the garment is finished the
edges have a triple scallop, or sharp
point embroidered in cotton of the same
color as the figure. This material, with
its simple finish, is liked for sack-shaped
chemises. for night-dresses and for
drawers; it is seldom, il ever, used for
skirts The fancy for silk night-dresses
still exists, but as there always have
been women who would wear nothing
but the clear white lawn or nainsook
and as these women are many, the
makers of underwear arc specially ca
tering to them. Very much more fine
work, that In, handworL, can be put
upon a nainsook gown than upon n silk
one, and the ncedle-woman can make
more fine tucks. fancy stitches, gather
ings.. hemstitching and drawing Of
threads than ever would seem possible
1t is for such work as this tn the
fine needles, the web-like threads and
all the dainty necdle.baskct adjuncts
are used. Embroidery cottons are used
to form the cipher or monogram that
marks who the owner of the garment
is, for nowadays my lady does not let
indelible ink touch her belongings, but
instead her favorite way of writing her
initials is wrought out in firm stitches
and small lettcrs.-Mrs. Mallon, In
Ladies' Home Journal.

A curious utilization of carrier pig
cons was recently attempted in Belgium.
This was making them carry contra
band goods into France. For short
time twenty-four pigeons were let off
regularly from the Belgian dovecote,
each burdened will a small coil of to-
bacco. They arrived at the French des-
tination rather exhausted and doubtless
glad to be relieved of their load. In
one case, however, unfortunately for
this bright scheme, a pigeon in making
the fight and proving unequal to the
effort, or perhaps poisoned by the mar
cotic, fell into the Seine and was picked
up. The system was found out and sup
pressed. Yankee Blade.
