The New French Waists.

Pongee silk shirt waists OF tho nat
ural ecru shade are imported by the
best modistos to wear with blazer suits
in the summer. According to Harpcr's S
Bl2ar, these are made in the simplest
manner, with fullnoss gathered at the
neck ard waist in front and back and
are mounted ON fitted and boned lin
ing of silk. a box plait two inches
wide is down the front, with row Of
brier stitching done in navy blue silk
near each edge and holding buttonholes
for three peall buttons, which are rogu-
lar shirt buttons. A turned down col
lar Of the pongeo doubled has a single
row of stitching and is mounted ON Il
neckband 50 wide that three buttons are
required to fasten it. The bishop
sleeves, nearly II yard wide, are very
long and have u fitted lining, to which
they are taken up in plait at the cl-
bow to give them the proper length.
They are gathered to straight cuffs of
pongec four inches deep when doubled,
bricr stitched in II single row and fas-
tened by three buttons. The edge Of the
waist goes inside the dress skirt. A
navy blue nocktie and ribbon belt, with
pearl buckle, complete the waist for
wearing with blue sacliing or surge
suits For those who prefer washable
materials for similar shirt waists madras
ginghams and linen batiste are used
in the ecru p.ygce color, which is some
times called "linen color in the shops.

dition OF strings The inevitable sailor
has its usual place on the list, yet it is
i'll many instances more ClabOratCly
trimmed than the regulation sailo2
ought to be. Transparent. crowns, trans
parent brims and tulle rOscttes are the
newest features i'll millinery. COlorcd
| coarse straw8 are very much worn, ana
palo pink, green and black are the pop
ular colors. A largo rush green straw
hat is trimmed with n soft crumplcd
green bow and field flowers. A very
Frenchy black hat is adorned with
vclvety wide open begOnias in the diff
fCrent colors of dark damask, pale pink,
creamy white and rose color set about
like roSCttcs. Unnatural black flowers
are losing their hold ON the public fancy,
and although black is introduced i'll al
most every hat it is accomplished with
lace ribbon or jettcd net.
A pretty example described in the
New York Sun is Of fancy black straw
adorned with black lace tastefully ar
ranged i'll the shape Of u fan, having at
its stem cluster of pink begonias, and
on the other side is bunch of the same
flowers in deeper shade. 1t is impos-
sible to say which color is most prefer
red, for all colors are worn on hats, the
strongest shades being mingled accord
ing TO taste. So it is safe to choose that
which is most becoming.
The latest thing in leghorn hats has
the appearance of a crown all right,
but on close inspection you find that the
top is gone, leaving the hair exposed.

If we strike pianoforto key with
sufficient force to produce even n mczzo
forte effect, knocking sound Is occa-
stoned as the finger touches the key, and
the hammer strikes the string in u way
to jar it. In this case tho vibrations
canllOt be those only which are neces-
sary to produce pure quality of tone,
the effect changing as if it were trying
to right itself. A steady pure tone re-
suits if we use n particular kind Of
pressure touch which is noticeable
throughout Paderewski's playing, and
the touch causes the strings to vibrate
as they should. We can easily produce
a poor quality of tone on good piano
forte if we use poor kind of touch,
and we can readily change the quality
Of tone without touching the pedals.
Certainly the quality of tone depends
upon the way that the keys arc put
down-upon tho "touch"-says g. L.
Staynter.

plies. They are made of finely granulat-
ed morocco leather, with 4 backing of
paper, OH which are printed magnifi-
cent designs i'll lacquer and gold. They
are extremely suitable for dining rooms,
halls and libraries. Genuine silks are
another speciality in wall decorations.
These are composed Of satin surface
backed with paper, the whole being en-
bossed with magnificent Louis XVI and
renaissance effects the intervals Of the
ground being printed in turquoise blue,
golden maize, pearl, heliotrope, old
pink, etc.
For those to whom such productions
might provo too costly there is manu-
factured a line Of pressed papers in
which the effects of the real silk are
reproduced
There are also special stamped papers
which reproduce the effects of glazed
tiles printed in blues reds and browns.
Blended friezes are a new thing in
pressed papers, and many beautiful ex-
amples Of this kind Of decoration are
shown. Some Of the pressed papers are
colored to initiate flock papers. There
are rich renaissance designs in walnut
leather colorings that would be very
suitable for the decoration of dining
rooms. Their white pressed papers are
similar to lignomur and suchlike fab
RIGS. Some Of the papers are not to be
distinguished from real ivory carving or
real silks, and while admiring the Won
derful beauty of the goods we are
shown others equally beautiful of a to-
tally different character.
There are papers reproducing the eff
fects of metal ceilings, glittering in all
the hues of FURNISHED lacquer, and pa
pers in tile effects
To meet the demands for p striped
goods which is essentially refined and
suitable for bedroom decorations, there
is produced line Of colored mica

as fast as any other color Scotch plaids
are also sold for childrcn's wear and are
always pretty and suitable, whether the
scarlet mixture I've selected or the darker
ones Of blue, green or brown. The red
plaids are soft in color in spite Of thcir
brightness and arc very pretty for young
or little girls frocks, trimmed with rows
Of narrow black velvet ribbon. Little
French girls are wearing ccru straw hats
trimmed with wide plaid ribbon and cream
lace.
A good model for child's dress in thin
wool goods is shown, havinga sailor blouse
with wide collar, puflcd sleeves with
deep cuffs and an accordion plated skirt.
Accordion plating is still used for women
as well as children and seems to be q per
manent addition to the wardrobe. 1t is
shown again in long serge coat for n lit.
tie girl. The body of the coat is plain, but
an accordion plated cape mounted on a
round yoke is worn over 1t. Jackets have
been brought out for very small children,
to be slipped on over the thin white frOcks

the following advice: The backing. II
liquid, should be kept well corked, and
after all traces of mud have been re.
moved from the boots should be applied
to the brush by means OF asponge, which
is tied to stick, and from thence to
the leather. This having been accom-
plished, the boots should be well pol
ished with the regulation brush and II
firm, vigorous hand. Much more deli
cacy Of treatment is required in clean
ing ladies' boots, except when they are
the stout common sense ones used for
walking or skating, great care always
being taken to avoid soiling the lining
of the boots.
An excellent polish for general pur-
poses is made from the following ingrc-
dients: Mix 4 ounces of ivory black
with 4 ounces of treacle in an earthen
jar, to which add an ounce of sulphuric
acid, stirring the mixture all the while.
Then pour i'll ? teaspoonfuls of olive oil,
and after this has been thoroughly in
corporated add by degrees y pints Of
white wine vinegar.
Another polish which is more suited
to ladies' fine boots is made by mixing
equal proportions Of sweet OIL treaclo
and vinegar with an ounce of lamp
black and applying with sponge.
Patent leather boots require entirely
different treatment. They should first
be wiped with damp sponge and after
ward with II soft, dry cloth. The sponge
may be moiStoncd with either water or
milk, but the latter should not be used
too often. Occasionally a little oil
might be applied with very good effect,
but blaclling should never be used eX-
cept upon the edges of the soles.

tervals with delicate bouquets Of flow
ers. Striped goods, with bold floral
frieze and ceilings to match, are much
in evidence. Vatican effects, with gar
lands of flowers in the frieze make
beautiful decorations. In fact, the gar
land as a motive has pretty much every.
thing its own way in modern decora-
tion, and such motives are interspersed
with all over floral stoncilings, embroid-
cry and lace effects, floral modallions in
the heraldic style and papers Of the en-

Decorator and Furnishcr says: Moth
ing is more barbarous in interior decora.
tion than covering wall space with IN all
over wall paper pattern, leaving the
frieze and ceiling devoid of ornament.
This method is pursued by those who
know nothing of decorative art and
have never made study of decorative
requiremnets of an interior. The ceiling
of an interior, not being required to
support furniture or pictures and being
always III evidence, isnaturally the spot
where the finest decorative effects should
obtain, and the fricze for this reason
also requires decorative treatment IL
fact, the real principle of decorating an
interior is to start with plainly tinted
dado, increasing the effects of form and
color as we approach the frieze, culmi-
mating our greatest effects in the fricze,
cove and border Of ceiling panel, and al
lowing the decorative wave to die off at
the center of the ceiling. This is the
most appropriate, classic and altogether
desirable method of interior mural dec
oration.

The Education of Teachers.

A teachers department was re-
Gently organized in the State
University at Knoxville. 1t is
growing rapidly and is patronized
by teachers of both sexes from all
parts of the State. The main OBJ
ject is to prepare well.trained
teachers for the primary and Sec
ondary schools of Tennessee,
though there is an advanced course
to prepare for higher work. Under
the late law for that purpose, Sec
ondary schools are being extern
tensively organized, but there is a
great lack of qualified teachers.
The State University is doing its
part to meet this new demand.
EVERYBODY in the State has a share
in the enterprise. Good schools
will bnild up the country every
where. The term opens January
25th. For particulars address Il.

ers' Department, University of

A Little Deceiver.

1t cannot be called a little fraud,
as it is of too great value and is
not to blame for being misused.
Vick's New Branching Astor
when cut resembles the chrysan-
themum so closely that only ex-
perts can tell the difference, and
as it comes into flower six weeks
before the "mums," and at a time
when flowers are scarce, it is a
great temptation to the florist to
sell these Asters for "mums." The
Branching Aster can be easily
grown out doors, and the seeds
cost only % cents per packet, so
that every person who has a foot
of ground can enjoy a grand treat
for almost nothing.
If you want honest goods send
10 cents to James Vick's Sons,
