Woman,s paIn.y Underwear.

Just what sort of underwear to assum
is one question that troubles the average
woman very much. She doesn't wan
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 trie'
first one and then another shaped gar
msnt, and the wise woman is she who
having at last hit upon that which i!
most comfortable, makes it most dainty
and assumes it tor good. Very little
linen is used nowadays for ones lingerie
tho preference being given to cambria
Victoria lawn, nainsook or percale. Tht
last is noted with tiny dots or wee flow
ers in pink, blue or lavender upon thu
white ground. Then when the carmen
is finished the edges have triple seal
Iop or sharp point embroidered in cot
ton 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. 1t is seldom
if ever, used for skirts.
The fancy for silk nightdrcsses still
exists, but as there always have beer
women who would wear nothing but the
clear white lawn or nainsook, ! and az
these women are many, the makers oi
underwear are specially catering tt
them. Very much more fine work, that
is, handwork, can be put upon main
sock gown than upon silk one, and the
needlewoman can make more fine tucks
fancy stitches, gatherings, hemstitch
ing and drawing of threads than evel
would seem possible.-Mrs. Mallon ir
Ladies' Home Journal.

Tho Cobwcb as a Styptic.

When Bottom was translated" and
introduced to the attendants of Titania
he endeavored to ingratiate himself with
Good Master Cobweb by saying, "When
cut my finger Twill make bold with
you" To arrest bleeding the applica-
ton of cobweb to the wound has long
been q rural custom. Experience has
shown that the gossamer Of which the
web is composed forms very useful
styptic, but q very fatal objection to its
use arises from the fact that as an ap-
pication to an open wound it can never
be guaranteed as surgically clean, form
ing as it does net for insects and at
the same time for the germs of many an
infectious disease.
Evidence of this was produced before
the Liverpool coroner recently touching
the death of Martha Roberts, who, fol-
lowing the timehonored custom, had
applied a cobweb to her wounded hand
to stop the bleeding. Blood poisoning
followed upon its application, and this
terminated, unhappily, in fatal issue.
