A Hint for Banaueters.

That men who have great regulations al
public speakers. who are called upon t
and do attend several baDquets each week
during the winter season, are able Away:
to look as though in perfect health and
show no sign of indigestion is source OF
wonder to men who. after perhaps a single
banquet, find med cnes necessary.
At these banQueIS are served, in a half
dozen courses. all the fancy dishes that the
mind Of chef can conceive. Then there
are the wines of various kinds, sometimes
good and sometimes very bad. How is it,,
people ask, that men who sit at such tables
so often suffer no i'll effect?
1t is because their experience has made
them cautious Constant dining out has
taught them the absolute need of modera-
ton. Many of them have confessed that
Il IS their habit to dine at their homes be-
fore going to banquet. Then at the ban
quet they will just nibble at what is placed
before them, SO as not to appear odd among
the company Of Ieasters.
With the wines it's thp me way. They
Will drink, perhaps, little sherry to be-
gin with. and then great many of them
make 1t Il rule not TO drink anything else
until the champagne is served. OF that
they drink enough to satisfy a natural
thirst, and for the rest of the evening they
drink nothing but Apollnaris, which in
nocent potion they find not only extremely
palatabe after the wine, but calculated 10

1HE NEW CORSET CovER.
Some Directions as to How to Cut and
Make 1t.

The daintiest and most sensible corset
cover yet devised has arrived this season
from Paris. It already is to be seen in
most OF the fashionable lingerie shops;
but it is SO simple of construction that it
can be cut and made at home by the dozen
in varying fabrics, plain or trimmed.
This new corset cover has been worn
abroad for year and is a true Partisan
CONNECTION, yet 1T is a wonder that it
has not been dreamed out before.
The ordinary corset cover, as bought
and worn by women at large, has all
ways been particularly ugly, especially
at the neck, arm and waist lines. 1t
has been cut on the practical basis
alone; to take up as little space as pos
sible, to fall safely below the throat
band OF the gown and not to interfere
with the gown sleeve, and it has been
fitted uncomDromisingly to the figure;
and then in effect IL has been cut square
off at the waist line by the belt or tie
ribbon OF the ordinary petticoat. In fact
the tlme-honored waist worn over the
corsets to keep them tidy has always sue
ceeded IN giving the prettiest and most
graceful possessor of a swanlike neck and
q gently swelling contour chopped of ,

ming her gown.
1t is safe to say no new adjunct of dress
ever created more interest among French
women. ''En nom de cieIl'' cried one to
another the day it was first seen in the
shops. "Whatever is that dainty diaph-
onous mystery at Madam Cies'?''
1t was known as the ':.Figaro. - 1t was
ofsoft, pale silk, edged about with VaIen-
ciennes laces, through which were run
narrow ribbons of the same shape as the
silk, and across the ends were more
shirred ribbons drawing the two front
ends up where they were tied into love-
knot.
1 would not like to tell the price paid
for my first one in Paris; but by aid of
the diagram here given, any one at the
cost of a couple of dollars can make at
home in morning the most exquisite of
the little silken affairs. Double the ma
terial, lay the pattern with the straight
back line on this doubled fold, apply the
scissors, and the thing is done. The
edges all around and about the arm holes.

stitched in silk, and the insertion for the
ribbon, and the lace, be sewed on after
