Photograph frames are as various as the pict-
ures themselves, nearly. A pretty one is OF
painted glass. The glass has wreath or bunch
of flowers painted around a clear space In the
center. This is placed over the photograph,
and piece of stiff cardboard is at the back.
An easel holds the frame. At some stores they
sell the glass with an easel-back for small
sum. All that is to be done is to paint the
glass. Violets, daisies, forget me-nots or pam
sizes are pretty.
In washing dishes that are soiled with egg

to egg stains on the tablc-cloth. If washed in

The difference between individuals Is great,
but the different ways that man and woman
will take to accomplish the same result are
sometimes startling Mrs. French Sheldon,
who has just returned from a wonderful trip in
Africa, was very particular to have pretty
gowns to appear in when she received the saw
age cheftains. Just think of a man doing any
thing like that, and yet Mrs. Sheldon achieved
a great deal on her journey. Not only was she
treated with great courtesy, but she brought
away es trophies many rare and curious things
to make the learned anthropologist, ethnolo-
gist, and sociologist stare.
One incident shows that women are women
the whole world over, and some Of them are
unscliish. The native women wear great guam
titles of brass jewelry, and one woman noticed
that Mrs. Sheldon had 20 rings, so she took off
a dozen dirty brass ones from her own fingers
and gave them to Mrs. Sheldon, who appre-
ciated the womanliness Of the act, and was
very glad to receive them.

THE ROYAL PATIENT.
The Duke of C1arenoe's Illness More
Serious Than Reported.

LONDON, Jan. 13.-Though on Mon
day the physicians in attendance upon
the Duke Of Clarence and Avondale
took very cheerful view of their pa
tient's condition, there is a general opin-
ion abroad that the duke is more seriously
Ill than his family and physicians would
have the general public believe.
Occupying the position he does, it is
but natural that the English people
should feel deeply concerned regarding
the outcome of his illness, and there is
little doubt that their fears of break in
the line of royal succession has much to
do with the belief that the full extent of
MS illness has not been made public.
The latest official statement issued by
the physicians says that the inilamma-
tlon of the lungs from which the duke
is suffering is pursui its course. They
add that his strere Ii is well maintained,
but that no improvement can be re-
ported. The guarded statement of the
physicians is taken to indicate that the
condition of the duke is less reassuring.
Reports by the Exchange Telegraph
company state that the pneumonia is
developing into more severe type than
is announced by the physicians in their
statements for the Information of the
public.
The queen, who is soiourning at Os-
borne House. Isle of Wight, is very
anxious regarding the condition of h
grandson, and she has ordered that
formation be Immediately Telegram
to her OF the slightest changes in
dukes condition.
1t is considered highly probable that
unless there is soon change for the
better her majesty will cut short her
visit at Osborne House and go to Sand
ringham Hall.
