beauty with astonishing durability
and is heartily recommended to the
amateur cabinct-nlal1er.
The tops Of the boxes should be Gov
cred first and tufted. This may be ac-
conplished by spreading curied hair on
the wood and taclzing the material over
it and at regular distances apart catch
a button to form a tuft. This is done
by boring two small holes through the
wood side by side, and. having thread

holes and tie the ends tightly together
at the under side Of the lid
The material is to be tackled all
around to the outer edge Of the tops

some curled hair behind the material
and give it a cushioned appearance and
in turn drape the sides Of the boxes.
To do it nicely. shir several yards Of
the material on a cord and then tack
the string fast all around the upper
edges Of the boxes.
Around the top edge Of each box and
to hide the joint where the covering
meets the draping material, fasten a
piece Of wide gimp with large oval

woman's Equality with Man.

Woman should stand on a perfect
equality with man in every sphere Of
intellectual endeavor, writes J. Nc
Donald Oxley in an article on Post
graduate Courses For Women in The
Ladies Home Journal No barriers
should be placed in her path Whether
the ballot be woman's right or not. the
privilege Of postgraduate study unques-
tionably is, and neither she nor those
who sympathize with her must be con-
tent until this is opened to her in the
fullest degree. By way of conclusion a
good way of bringing this about may be
suggested Let it be a condition Of fu-
ture requests or donations to the univer-
sites that they admit women to their
postgraduate courses.

Javanese cloth Is new cotton fabric
for drapery and hangings, the beauty Of
which certain artists have discovered.
To the untutored mind it is common
stuff. inclining most frequently to All
indigo or warm brown, with queer free
hand designs struggling over it. It is
made by hand in varying lengths of
from two to three yards and more than
a yard wide. These cloths are used by
the Javanese, according to their sizes,
for headdresses or skirts. By the uninti-
ated American it is proposed that they
be used for table covers, etc. New
