An Ensihh wsmsn's Club.

English women, lilrc Englishmen,
possess a talent for enjoying the advan-
tages and comforts of club that their
American sisters know nothing about.
An English woman's club is first of all
a convenience. soothing luxury, an
oasis In domesticity, quiet. independ-
ent nook, where the last book or maga-
zine, CUP of good tea and half hours
idle talk are all to be enjoyed. Second
arily and only occasionally does she use
it for mental improvement. She is not
overfond Of having herself warned,
threatened. coaxed or derided in her
clubs sacred precincts by series of
members who cherish opinions. Neither
does she wish to go to school in her
club, since she asks of it relaxation, not
cultivation. Now and again she requests
somo person Of recognized ability to
come and talk to her in her clubrooms
ON some special topic Of current interest.
She likes vigorous debate or clever
recitation at intervals, little good
music and an annual dinner.
There are half dozen clubs Of this
sort for women in London, and another
In Newcastle has been opened recently

Homemade Bead Portiores.

A very pretty work great many en-
ergetio women are trying now is that Of
making their own bead portieres. The
Japanese shops sell bamboo and strings

20 narmonlze perfectly with eaon room.
For instance, I saw charming effect
produced by a portiere of green beads
used between a dining room and small
conservatory adjoining. You have no
idea how exquisite the plants and fiow-
ers looked through this transparent
screen of green. Gold beads give sun
shiny effect, and portieres Of solid pink
or blue beads are dainty in the extreme.
A friend who has recently returned
from Japan tells me that the curtains
strung in patterns are made by having
the designs drawn on large pieces Of
paper and laid ON the floor, and then
the beads are strung on just as we would
trace out the lines in making lace. -

Their father was a duke so impoverish-

day at length came when the Duke Of

stroke of fortune, royal highnesses. This
was but beginning.
"Several years later the eldest, the
Princess Alexandra, married the Prince
Of Wales. The youngest married the
Duke of Cumberland. If Germany had
not caused the principle that might

no one has ever dared to make the least
accusation against the Empress Marie
