If women with red hair would only
study how to use it becomingly they
would be proud of the dlstiction
of having it, instead of dissatisfied
with their fate. There seems to be a
general impression among women
with red hair that almost any shade of
blue can be worn by them. because. as
usual thing, they have fair and del
icate compilations, But, as a matter
of fact, blue is the one color above all
others that they ought to avoid. The
contrast is too violent, and the COM
bination is not harmonious. The
shades most suitable to be worn with
red hair are bright, sunny browns and
all autum-leaf tints After these NAV
be selected pale or very dark green
but never bright green-pale yellow
and black unmiXed with any other col
or Solid colors are more becoming
to re-haired people than mixed, the
mixed colors nearly always giving a
more or less dowdy appearance. In
fact, red hair is usually so brilliant
and decided that it must be met on its
own ground and vague, undecided
sort OF things should be worn with it.

QUEER NESTS FOR DUCKS.
Made OF Rushes and Hung on Poles in
the Marahoa


The water-fringed village of Grouw,
In F'rlesland, north Holland, is remark
able for two things-cheese and ducks
The lakes which fringe the village on
three sides are thick with bulrushes
and water grass, and afford excellent
cover for wild ducks and other aquatic
fowls. To promote the comfort of the
former and at the same time facilitate
the collection of their eggs the vii
ayers construct nests made of plated
rushes and hung on poles driven into
the soil or perched between the forks
of trees. Above each coterie the own
er of the nests fixes pieces of colored
cloth, which enable him to readily
distinguish his nests from those of his
neighbors.
These bits of bunting are useful also
to the birds, Nho invariably keep to
their own nests. The owner goes each
morning in his boat to the nesting
ground, thrusts his arm into the bot
tle-shaped nests, and collects their
contents for the market.
