Dainty Draperies.

AS to how the draperles of our rooms
they shall consist are questions of interest
to every housewife. Well chosen and taste
fully hung they are very important addi-
ton to the homelike as well rs the artistic
appearance of room. Of course there are
many varieties of draperies, and at many
purse.
The Housewife saws: "Some of the most
inexpensive thin ones are the muslins of
various designs; some of the prettiest are
of rich cream ground with feur-de-lis in
old pink, blue, yellow, etc., or with large
pals in colors. A very effective design, and
if iudiciously used an elegant one. is a mus
lin in imitation of the expensive Roman
silks; in one pattern light red predominates
in another peacock blue. A fringe to match
can be obtained, but the curtains are more
effective without it.
Then there are the diff 9rent varieties of
muslins with white figures that are always
used, and plain cream scrim is also used
The scrim curtains should be hemstitched
all around bv hand and tied back with a
handsome ribbon bow. For a bedroom cur
tAins having crinkled white ground with
narrow stripe of red, blue or yellow. and
with netted fringe at top and bottom, are
extremely pretty. Madras is always hand
some. but it should be real. The imitation
is rarely used.
Curtains reaching to the window sill are
very popular. They may be made of all
kinds of thin silks, muslins or the net laces
You can either trim them or use them I'M
trimmed. but they must be Topped back
about halt way down the window with cords
and tassels to match, more frequently than
with ribbon. The silks used range in price
from so cents to So 90 per yard. There are
many handsome silks with designs used.
but the plain colors seem to be the most
favored. Long curtains can be used with
these short ones if yon like.

Dressing Table Satchets.

In the substitution of pin trays for pin
cushions an opportunity is afforded for COW
ering part of the bureau or dressing table
with a pretty satchet. These arein varying
sizes, the smallest being infnitessimal and
the largest vast enough to conceal the whole
bureau top. In the latter case no other cover
is necessary, and the toilet accessories are
laid upon the satchet, which of course is fiat
and but lightly stuffed with the perfumed
wadding, That is dainty fancy which
many woman has now of keeping every
article of her personal profession sufficiently
in contact with the one odor she selects and
solely adheres to for them to absorb and
retain faint trace of it Combs and brushes
laid with this intent upon the sachet acquire
an impalpable fragrance which is delicately
impaired to the hair on which they are
used Nothing shows more lack of taste
than the over free use of perfumes. The
violet, rose. heliotrope, whichever is used
should be family suggested rather than
obtrusively perceived.
The satchets used for covering the bottom
of bureau and closet drawers may be simply
covered with silkolene or cheesecoth, the
scent powder being catered between sheet
wadding. Little muslin bags filled with the
scent can be used in the shoe drawers and
ardrobes.-Harper's Bazaar.

Study at Home.

A young girl writing to an exchange tells
how she and her brother learn at home.
She says: "One way we have of studying
geography is this: One names city. some
one else names another commencing with
the last letter of that, and so on. Some.
times we name something for which each
city is noted. This same plan is used for
rivers and countries. In history one reads
a chapter and each in turn tells what seems
the most prominent fact; when we have
finished we have learned pretty nearly all
there is in that capter. Sometimes mother
reads words from the dictionary and we
fine them; then she reads the definition
given in the book. II is strange how few
words one can define properly"

Our Inner Life.

There is hidden life in all of us, and it
makes us what we are. It is this hidden
life that chisels the face. that puts the
strange expression ON it. The hidden life of
sensuality marks the line on the outer life.
The man may never have INDUCED in
sensuality,he may have been held back from
sensuality by fear; but if deep down in his
heart there is the sensual nature, the
sensual nature shows itself in his face. You
know that. You women know it, at all
events. You have seen men whom you
would not care to travel alone with in car,
and yet you know nothing against them
save what is written in their tIc IS. And.
on the other hand, there are some
faces that carry in their lines a
benedietion, a blessing, a peace. They do
not know it. You cannot say their faces are
beautiful-put them in marble and Won do
not care for them-but the soul shines
attractions and repuIsions which we all
sometimes feel. We come into the presence
of one man and we are insUinctively re-
PEELED; we try to put the feeling away rs a
prejudice, but we cannot; we come into the
presence of another man. and we are drawn
to him, we know not why, and vet we are
drawn to him. It is not all prejudice; the
intuitive soul of one perceives the secret
soul of the other. Women and children, it
is often said are good. judges or human

nature. They do not discriminate, they do
not analyze; they cannot tell you why, but
they are sensitive, and their nature responds
to the sub-conscious life of those with whom
they come in contact. Now, it is possible to
have this sub.conscious life, this hidden
life, nodded by Christ, by God. And this Is
the highest life of Christian experience. -
