DAUGHTERS of THE Revolution.
The Massachusetts Building Given to
the Atlanta Chapter.

Atlanta, Ca, Dec. 1.-THE state of
Massachusetts has given the Atlanta
chapter of the Daughters of the American
Revolution a handsome present by do
mating the Massachusetts building at the
exposition to them for a permanent mu-
suem or club house. The formal presen-
tation was made to-day, the building be-
ing delivered by Chairman Lowering OF
the Massachusetts commission to the city
of Atlanta to be held in trust for the
ladies until they can obtain charter
and take legal possession of it.
The Massachusetts building is one OF
the finest of the state buildings. 1t cost
$40, 900 and is in every way worthy of be-
ing held as a permanent structure. 1t Is
an exact reproduction of Craige house,
the home of the poet Whittier. The ladies
will probably remove the building to some
other site, though this has not yet been
determined upon The Atlanta chapter
will be the only one of the chapters of
the Daughters of the Revolution that
owns its own home or club house.

LONDON, Jan. 5, 1s95.-At the commence
ment of the autumn there were decided
signs that very definite hat-shapes would
come back once more to gladden. the heart
of those who dislike the vague lines OF our
present millinery. But apart from the
''Toreador," which really looks pretty
wicked only on the blond fluff Of wig OF "a
sweet H." the same indefinite character
still prevails in the world of chapeaux and
capotes, but there is certain softness and
look of opulence about their very vague
ness. All tones of gray, from ''mouse" to
"siIver," hold good in felts, velvets and
beavers. and on these dim midwinter days
they are certainly more practical dainty

1t seems to one who has given such a
luncheon that the china and glass manu-

in mind when they turned their wares
loose upon the market, for there is an
almost endless choice of plates and saucers
for even the most economical BUYER Salad
plates in Limoges, representing single
leaf, green and refreshing as nature itself;
glass olive and icecream dishes, looking
for all the world like frost-touched maple
leaves, and the oldest little coffee cups,
representing the acorn on the oak leaves,
and fruit stands composed of two
grape leaves, the stems intertwined to form

obtained. Surely such an array forms

The napkins and doilies should all be in

giant central figure used as the table They

each one representing different species
of LEAKAGE. This scheme is easily followed
out in this way: Draw on plain board
large enough to be used for table seating
four the outline of a clover, maple, oak or
any other leaf that you may choose, those
having the simpler outlines being better
for the purpose, as they are TO be covered
with that green oilcloth that we were all SO
well acquainted with in childhood. If but
one long table is prepared, a leaf having
large lobes is the wiser choice, allowing
greater and more comfortable seating
space for the guests, as well as being better
adapted for the novel mode of setting the
tables. as Will be shown later on. Have a
carpenter saw these out according to out
line. These tops are set over the regular
table or tables, Just as in fashionable restau-
rants. They convert square into round
board at the shortest notice. OF course, it
is hardly necessary to caution the lunch
eon-giver against any unsteady topheavy
form, for if she wishes her dishes to re-
main on the table careful adjustment
will be primarily attended to.
The covers made, the next step is the
tracerv of the veins. This is done by
means of the small dishes being used to
follow the outline customary in the vein
ing of whatever leaf is chosen. One partic-
uIarlv realistic effect was achieved by using
dozens of small glass dishes exactly OF a

must be closed, yet its hideousnsss seems
to spoil the room. Then ingenuity is re-
quired, and real genius is necessary to
success.
In a tiny fiat that is sorely overburdened
with exits and entrances this plan has been
taken up and followed with great success
In one room bookcase backs up against

In place of horror it has become a
unique bit of decoration and is considered
quite triumph by those who know.

that an elderly woman's gown must be

no longer held. Youth and beauty do not
require rich gowns and magnificent trim

when middle age has come then there is
right to claim all of the beautiful stuffs
