sitting close by them and gazing through

Trembling we rushed into the kitchen to
find Fluflie calmly reposin9 in the basket
but no sign Of the chickens. "Oh, YOU have
eaten them, you cruel catl" we began,
when a soft little chirrup fell upon our ears
followed by n tiny yellow head peeping out
from her long, dark fur. Yes, actually
these three dear wee chicks were found
nestled beneath her, and As we screamed
delightedly for every one to come and see

How Eskimo Boys Hunt.

In the far north in May and June inn
mense numbers of elder ducks fly along the
coast bound for their breeding grounds far
to the east of Point Barrow, Alaska At
this season every person, male and female,
is supplied With the Eskimo implement
called by them ke-loye-i-tow-tin. which, as
Golden Days tells, is made rs follows:
Eight balls three-quarters of an inch in
diameter are cut from ivory or bone, with
"a tip or ear through which hole is drilled
Eight strands of finely braided sinew are
tied to these balls. At the opposite ends
the strands are brought together, each of
exactly the same length, and tied to 10 or
- quilts of some sea fowl, when the imple-
ment is ready for use. The bunch of quilts
is grasped with the right hand, while the
fingers of the left comb out the strand, and
when all clear the balls are held between
the forefinger and the thumb.
This is done in n few minutes, when q
flock of ducks are seen approaching. When

HOME HINTS And HELPS.
SOME SUGGESTIONS THAT MAY PROVE
VALUABLE TO YOU.

Tho Use OF ToweIs-A Novel Match
Holder-To Keep the Lamps I'm Good
Condition-Inexpensiv Mats-A Plate
Wsrmer-To Clean silver.
Towels should be used legitimately-
never for busters, wash cloths or lamp
cleaners. There is nothing SO conven-
tent about the house as a good supply OF
busters, and no room in the house is
complete without it's duster. These use-
ful articles should always be hemmed.
and IL is important that they be washed
and ironed regularly. Cheese cloth, cal
leo and old dress Innings make good
busters, and the value of cast off stock
ings-minus the feet-cut and sewed to-
gether cannot be overestimated. These
are excellent for fine furniture. The care
of busters, tea towels and dish cloths are
a particular occupation. Set aside an
afternoon in the week for washing these
necessary articles, and let 1t not be on the
regular washing day-for il these are al
lowed TO come up in the rear at such a
time they are very apt to go without the
.are they deserve.

ORNAMENTS FOR The HAIR.
Some Novel Ideas FOR Neat and Inex-
pensive Decorations,

Some Novel ideas FOR Neat and Inex-
pensive Decorations.
The girl of the period likes to decorate
her hair. II 1t happens that money is
not thing to be considered she may
wear tiara Of gold, brilliant with gems.
while hairpins of gold with jeweled
heads hold the glossy braids together.
But should she not be a ma aiden to such
good fortune born, yet anxious to dress
her hair in the latest fashion, here are
some hints she may find useful: Bright
red holly-berries make an affective tiara
for the maiden with dusky hair. The
real berries may be used for a number of
evenings, but better way is to buy a
spray of the artificial berries and twine
them about a piece OF silk bound wire
lent TO the required shape. To the CEN
TIRE of the tiara fasten a iaunty bow OF
bright scarlet ribbon, and the result will
be found becoming.
A new idea for an aigrette Is to have the
pompom made of many loops of baby
ribbon and the feather in silver. One
homemade aigrette of this kind had the
pompom of odd shades OF blue and red
ribbon with a small peacock feather
waving above it.
A crown-like tiara may be made of
contrasting shades OF ribbon twisted I'm
rope fashion and ornamented with a bow
OF shot ribbon.

About skirts.

The ladies who rejoice in a desired
slimness OF figure need not affect trim
ming on their gored umbrella skirt, but
TINS trimming certainly gives a stout
nsure much more slender appearance.
Box plated and cornet backs show
variously on new skirts and the fashion
oil trimming each OF the gored seams Of
umbrella skirts all the way from hem to
belt on the front and sides is quite popu-
lar.
The English skirt, just clearing tho
ground, especially for sensible suits OF
'serge, tweed and homespun, are made to
order for fashionable women, who would
not be seen walking with a train drag
ging in the street.
