One likes to read how the czarina con-
stantly accompanies her husband in his
rides and drives. Not only does 1t in in

intrepidity too often denied as an at
tribute to woman. II is said that she
thinks her presence is a defense from
nihiliStS. Certainly she knows that a
shot aimed at him might reach her; that
a bomb under the carriage would not
be discriminating. Yet she hopes that
her presence may prevent the bomb
throwing, and she equally hopes that
the bullet may reach her, if so it be
that she saves his life.
But one Of the pleasantest things to
read about her is the motherly devotion
TO the moral welfare Of her children. In
this she is an example to all mothers.
She allows no governess. but employs
teachers, who, coming for a few hours

How to Keep Bread.

One hears a great deal of talk about
moist bread, and a large number Of
housekeepers shut their bread in air
tight boxes to keep it moist. Such bar
barous treatment of bread may be ef-
ficacious in keeping it moist. but bread
from which fresh air is excluded always
has disagreeable. clayey flavor and is
unpalatable to people of cultured tastes
who appreciate the nutty sweetness that
Is prominent characteristic of all good
bread.
The foolish notion of keeping bread
moist had its origin in bad cookery.
Most of the stuff made by bakers has to
be eaten fresh and moist, or not eaten
at all 1t is SO light and woolIy that If
exposed 10 the air a few hours it grows
dry and husky and is almost as unsavory
and innutritiOus as chips. large pro-
portion of homemade bread is similar in
character and is affected in a similar
manner by exposure to the air. But
properly made bread-Such bread as
ought TO be in every intelligent home
and on every Christian table three times
a day-grOws sweeter by exposure to
the air and is not at its best until two
or three days old.
Bread should be kept in a well COW
cred box or jar. but it should not be
wrapped in cloths, and the box or lar
IN which IL is kept should have small
holes In the top or sides, through which
the fresh air can have access. As soon
as loaveS of bread are taken from the
oven they should be exposed freely 10
pure air, and at no time afterWard
should they be excluded from Il. Make
good bread, put il in well ventilated
DoX after II is perfectly COOL and it will
Keep sufficiently moist at least a week.

For thc Candle Pnrtr.

The table at the candle party" is a
small one covered with an open work
cloth laid over pink The plates are
pink. and if possible the center of each
one should represent some ideal baby
face. The centerpiece at the affair which
| attended represented a swan in bisque
being driven by a dear little baby boy.
The back Of the swan opened between
the wings, and this space was filled
with tiny moss rosebuds that ovcrfOwed
onto a circular mirror that was sur
rounded by smilax, caught here and
there by pink satin ribbons that wan
dered off over the cloth i'm loops and
ends, holding at short intervals tiny Clus-
ters of arbutus and white hyacinths. The
reins by which the swan was driven con-
sisted of pink blooms also.
The candles in pink We're covered by
little paper shades formed Of a row of
baby faces that seemed to laugh in
genuine enjoyment as the light shone
through from the back. At each place
was a set Of real babys pink shoe filled
with moss rosebuds and the almonds
and bOnbcns reposed in little pink glass
cradles. OF course in giving such an
affair original ideas present themselves
and can be carried out both inexpensive
~ and daintily.-Edith Townsend Ever

Prof Joseph French Johnson of the
Wharton school says:

generation and should instruct her chill
dren most thoroughly and practically
in the relationship existing between citi-
zen and state.
Especially is this sort of instruction
needed In the public schools. There is con-
siderable complaint of the evils caused
by politics in our schools teachers too
Otter owing their appointment not TO
fitness, but To the favor of politicians.
One Of the surest ways TO get politics
out of the schools will be 70 put politics
into them, or. dropping the paradox. to
take politics out of their mana ement
| and put civics into their courses OF
study
When IL dawns upon men that women
are attending to the duties OF citizenship
more faithfully and conscientiously than
they themselves, the war of words over
woman's rights will suddenly end and
woman will be voter"

Women In Washington.

Society in Washington grows more
complex every year. Alas for the demo-
cratic simplicity which in the rural mind
characterizes our government and has
its reflex in the social life of the capital
city! No politician ever played the great
game Of politics more assiduously than
do many women the social game i'm this
city. I know Of one woman who aver
aged twenty-seven calls day one week
Isn't that devotion? Six times twenty
seven-162 calls. And she told me how
relieved she was 70 get out and make
few calls; how weary she had grown
of receiving and what a pleasure il was
to be entertained instead of entertain
ing.
There is no half way in Washington.
One must either sit Penelopeike at home
and spin or go ones length in the mad
plunge. AS society draws its distinctive
caste line closer, the race becomes the

Coal oil Lamps.

Some people think that because coal
oil lamps often give off an odor it is one
of the concomitants of that illumination.
which is not a fact. a lamp has to be
as regularly and carefully cleaned as
a furnace, and if either gets ologged up
there is no comfort TO be had. Coal oil
makes the best light for reading ipur-
poses by all odds. The lamp should he
emptied of all the oil once week to
cleanse the bowl Of all impurities. 1t
should be carefully filled each day, for
when the wick has to draw from too
great adepth the lamp is sure to smoke.
The wick should be trimmed every
morning and the burner carefully freed
from bits of charred wick. Use only
the best oil. If these directions are fol-
lowed You will have no trouble with
your lamps.-EXchange

Danger in Perfumes.

Women who are fond Of indulging in
strong perfumes should remember that
they are decidedly injurious TO the sense
Of smell. BY their frequent use the
secretory glands of the nose and throat
are overtaxed and weakened. One day
the person notices that the hearing is
less acute than usual, and the sense of
smell seems defective. This is of course
put down TO a cold. and but little is
thought Of ii. After a time the entire
head becomes affected, and there are
throat and lung complications which are
likely to end i'm chronic If not fatal
illness. Smelling salts are a prolific
cause Of deafness. All strong and pun
gent doors. particularly those which act
upon the secretory processes, should he,
avoided as far as possible.-New York

because angry looks and feelings are SO
