Tho best material with which 20 cover

than silk, with which Benjamin Frank
lin covered his kite, because it is not so
porous and will hold the wind better
Franklin knew this, but used silk, 30
that ii 1T rained tho kite would not be
blown TO pieces. All that is absolutely
necessary, however, to make Il good
kito which will fly high, and fly we'll
arc sono pieces of wood, Il spool of
thread, newspaper, some flour for the
paste and u jaukknife. Don't let any
ono induce you to try to make kite
that will fly without tail for it is not
reliable. The good old kites with tho
tails which can DO made heavy or light
according to tho wind, and can be made
stradys or divers by just adding little
tail or breaking piece off, can always
bo relied on to do just what you want
them to do.
Now, to mako tho heart kite, take
two sticks of wood. Tho lighter they
arc tho better they will fly, only don't
mako them so light that the least strain
will break thon. If you want to make
kite feet high, ono stick must bo
feet long, and tho other feet.
Mako cross with them, the short stick
ono foot from the top of the long stick.
Then tic them together with thread
where they cross each other. Take an.
othor piece Of thread and tie it TO the
top and bottom of the long stick, and to
tho ends of tho cross sticks, so that it
looks like tho picture, Fig. L. Then
take piece of tissue paper, if you have
1t, ana lay it OH the frame. Cut somo
paper i'll strips and paste them, with
good flour paste, over the sticks and
thread and on tho tissue paper, until
you have fastened tho tissue paper to
the frame, leaving plenty of margin out
fido of tho thread. Then cut the margin
i'll tho shape Of n heart. as shown in Fig.

parts of tho heart, which are not niado
still by being pasted to tho frame, will
not stand ont straight. but will droup.

HOW TO WASH SILK UNDERWEAR.
An Art totIso Learned by Those Who Wear

Wash tho silk undorClothing in warm
hot hot-water and preferably with
soap; soaking and very hot water will
inevitably discolor and shrink tho gar
monts. Moreover, they should be washed
alono and never boiled on any account.
If they arc much soiled. few drops Of
ammonia may be added to the water
with advantage. Tho great secret about
tho washing of silk is to do it as quickly
us possible without rubbing. Rinse in
lukowarm water and at once squeeze
tho articles gently and let them nearly
dry, but do not uso pegs in hanging
them up; simply spread thom over a
