Cleaning Lace Curtains.

Lace curtains will not bear rubbing.

All the work must be done carefully

solved in two quarts OF boiling water;
add also, about Gill OF household
ammonia. Let the curtains soak in
this over night. In the morning sop
them well in the water, and squeeze
it all out; but do not wiring the cur

water, prepared with eoap and am
monia, as on the night before; sop
them gently in this water, and then
after squeezing out the water put them

have no grass, put them on the

The Proper Way TO Sit.

A proper sitting position requires
that the spine shall be kept straight,
and that the support needed for the
upper part of the body shall be felt
in the right place, says Caroline lie
Row in May Ladies' Home Journal.
Therefore, sit as far back as possible
in the chair, 60 that the lower end of
thee pioe shall be braced against the
back Of the seat. Ii this back is
straight theehOulders will also rest
against 1t; if not, they will have no
point of support, and it will be found
that they do not need 1t. This posi-.
ton makes no strain upon the liga.
ments of the spine. 1t allows o pro-
per position of the shoulders,
consequently. of the chest, consequent
ly of the lungs, stomach, and every
other organ of the body. Their work
is carried on naturally and COM
fOrtably, as is also the circu-
lation of the blood, which in .
wrong sitting position is seriously
lnterfered with. With the feet rest
ing squarely upon the floor, the hands
resting easily upon the lap, perfect
equilibrium, and consequently per-
feet rest of the body, is secured.
There is no strain upon any part of
the body; no muscle or organ is re-
quired to do more than its legitimate
amount of work. The arms should
never be folded; for this position not
only causes q strain upon the spine,
and all the other evils already re
ferred to, but, in addition, places the
weight of the arms upon the, stomach
and the diaphragm, thereby increas-
ing the labor Of digestion and respira-
ton. Placing the hands behind the
back. or folding the arms behind the
back, If possible, js a good attitude to
take occasionally, giving, as 1t does,
the fullest expansion TO the whole
upper part of the body.

The Russian Blouse.

The more Russian you can. ap-
parently, become, the more stylish, of
late, consequently every wardrobe
must have at least one waist of this
name. though there are at least six
or eight designs In vogue, writes
Mrs. Mallon in the May Ladies'
kinds of sleeves worn with the
waists-a high, coat shape, one hav.
Ing full uppers and deep, close fitting
cuffs, and the typical Russian sleeve,
with q deep cap, or second sleeve ex-
tending to the elbow, over the med.
erately high cost sleeve beneath.
Both the cap and wrist are trimmed,
also the collar, opening down the
lett side and lower edge II the wearer
is slender. A close lining is worn but
for cotton dresses, however. The
blouse is from twelve to twenty inches
below the waist line, belted with q
ribbon, passementerie, or leather belt,
and either plain or shirred at the cen.
ter, back and front by the collar.
Side forms are used IL the wearer is
rather large, otherwise the garment
resembles q deep sacque, having only
eide and shoulder seams. Every ma
terial is made up In this manner: and
the trimmings are as numerous as the
fabrics. Pointed, round. and square
Jokes are also worn, and when of soft
materials, like China silk or crepon,
the round yoke is shirred in three
crosswise pnffs. divided by jet or
pearl passementerie. Handsome but
tons fasten these garments, and they
are usually worn with "bell" exits.
