and then the cooring is begun. The colors
are sold in tiny cans. More than fifty shades
are to be had. the paler ones beng used
principally for backgrounds, the darker and
richer tints serving for the main portions
of the design. A delicate touch is neces-
sary that the colors may not encroach beyond
the metallic outlines. The object, of course,
is to get the color as smooth and glossy as
actual china.
II an especially brilliant effect is desired
this may be obtained by scattering metallic
powder over certain portions of the painting
The worker should paint those parts Of
the pattern to be thus ornamented first after
gliding the outlines. The colors or enamels
must not be thnned with turpentine, but
with a special mixture, which has no bad
effect upon the brightness of the colors.

A number of lawyers made comments on

Mrs Fotz was the leading woman law
yer of the Pacific coast before she came
to New York. She was left a widow at
an early age, with five children. To sup
port them she studied law and began her
practice. She forced through an amendment
to the California constitution allowing women
to be admitted and also successfully con-
tested a suit to make law school trustees
admit her to study. She has been one of
the leading women suffragists of California.

like mosaic, is initiated quite successfully and
easily. First one must buy the pottery-a

needed, and II must be spread quite smoothly
and evenly over the surface of the terra Gotta.

Recently pair of New York's smartest
milliners gave private openings, where were

were three-cornered or round toque shapes,

WOMAN'S DOMAIN.


These aud the swathing about the brlm are
OF white tule; the panaches at the side are
prince Of Wales feathers which are figuring
extensively In the new millinery.
MODEST HATS,
Still another black hat had the round
brlm covered with tulle poufs, black and
white alternating. Instead OF feathers
were some tall stalks Of jonquls with
their tender green leaves. The Virot
walking hats also showed many black
and white effects, but there were besides
some very stunning ones in color. The
roller brim of one smart brown one
seemed uncommonly wide, and the bag
crown was puffed up in front which
took away from the trying squareness often
otherwise occasoned. The chief trimming
for these walking hats is velvet ribbon, which
encrcle5 the crown in narrow band, and
ends commonly in front with trim bow
drawn through buckle.
The brown one mentioned had a strass
buckle and two big clumps at the sides of
faded wall flowers. A black one had black
velvet through a steel buckle in front, a
panache of black feathers at the left, and
the brim draped with a soft web Of yellow
lace. This on pale-faced woman with
heavy Duse's eyelids was delightful. But
when fresh moon-faced darling tried 1t on
1t Immediately became hideous. Doesn
she look like frog?" said somebody. And
nobody denied 1t.
One of the becoming tricks Of the new
millinery is the way the brim hats are
trimmed underneath At the back, and
under the brim at the sides, there Will be
banks of flowers and even the walking hats
will often have at the rear soft ends OF
lace or the tip OF feather to blend be
com!ngly with the hair. The large hats,
and especially those trimmed heaviest at the
back are still to be worn tilted low over the
forehead. Bonnets are very rare. ,,,
