The tongue Of the toad and frog is pre-

The mouth Of the lobster is small, and he

before he can devour it.
The largest mouth, proportio to the size
of the animal. is that Of the frog. His head is
practically all mouth.
Artificial teeth of porcelain were made in

Combs Getting Larger.

NEW YORK, Jan. 10-The side comb
has come to the front, indeed to the back
and to all parts of the head, and it has come
to stay. From the little unobtrusive inch
and-a-half combs that used to plaster back
refractory bangs during the Madonna craze
the side comb has developed into a five or
six inch implement encircling half the
head and variously ornamented and filigreed
according to the taste and pocket of the
wearer.

Are they going to use cushions, really
and false hair?" was asked of a popular
hairdresser on Fifth avenue.
1--WE have used cushions for over wear -
was the answer, but not to the extent
they will be used this season. AS for the
false hair, Of course the Marie Antoinette
style necessitates moro luxuriant tresses
than many women have, and the deficiency
will have to be supplied.
Most of our cushions are made of hair
like this" said madame, exhibiting one fo1
inspection. "But the pompadour roll il

"a favorite way of arranging the hair
for evening is to turn the hair back from
the face in soft puffs the fluffier the better,
and mass it in an oval twist at the back of
the head. a loose curl or two must fall
over the forehead and behind the ear.
by the way, I have been taking note
Of these curls and their wearers A very
tough girl is sure to have a tough rollick-
ing curl; an artistic girl is likely to have
a feathery, tously, airy little curl, and a
tailormade girl, if she be a thoroughbred,
will have a curl that is smooth, perfect
and curved like a bow

will be worn again, too, but it rubs so
easily and looks so untidy that many girls
will not adopt it."
''The Marie Antoinette style, if I am not
mistaken, has loose, puffed arrangement

"Yes, and it requires skill to contrive

Tell me, does it turn gray hair yellow
to wash it?"
Undoubtedly. For some reason gray
hair that is washed habitually takes on a
horrid, sickly yellow. 1t should be sham
pooed with a carefully prepared lotion
that will cleanse the hair and scalp with
out staining it. 1t seems strange, but
though water does not iniure the hair be-
fore it turns gray, it certainly does after

with of any we have"

A JOY DIVINE.

All, bring it not so grudingly,
The gift thou bringest me;
Thy kind hands shining from afar
Let me in welcome see,
And know the treasure that they hold,
For purest gold.
And with glad feet that linger not,
Come through the summer land,
Through the sweet fragrance Of the flowers
Swiftly to where l stand,
And in the sunshine let me wear
Thy token rare.
Fairer for me will be the day,
Fair all ,he days will be,
And thy rich gift upon my breast
Will make me fair to see;
And beautiful, through all the years,
In joys and nars

And come. content to pass to-day

tions has been brought to a lather. The
spots are then rubbed out by hand, care
being exercised to rub the material back
on itself, not on the hand nor on the board.
After this the clothes are rinsed, laid in
boiler and covered with clear water, to
every four gallons of which has been added
enc pound of soap and half pound of soda
the mixing being done before the clothes
are put in, as the crude soda, lying undis-
solved on any fabric, might rot it through.
This water is slowly brought to the boiling
point and allowed to simmer fifteen or
twenty minutes; no more Then the clothes
are lifted out and the water from the boiler
poured over them. To bleach them, espe-
cially in places or seasons, where they can
not be spread on the grass, the clothes are
left in this water for several hours.
Many authorities declare that white
clothes should never be boiled but the
Edinburgh school advises it, for If done in
the way indicated it does not yellow the
linen, and without boiling it Is very much
more difficult to keep the clothes sweet
smelling
For washing special fabrics the classes
are given many suggestions; those for wash
ing white silk articles, such as handker-
chiefs, undershirts and neckties, are new
to most laundresses in this country. A suds
lis made with the soap mixture and clear
water; in this the articles are gently
washed, one by one, with much squeezing,
but no rubbing nor wringing. A bowl near
by contains water and methylated spirits of
wine (two teaspoonfuls of spirits to a quart
Of water) this to retain the gloss OF the
silk. Into it the pieces are dipped and
rnsed free from all soap. They are then
squeezed again, rolled each in its own linen
cloth or towel, and after half an hour
are ironed on the wrong side, beneath
white cloth. with a very hot iron. They
come out of this process as white and
glossy as when new. Colored silks may be
washed in the same way, but they should
1 first Of all be soaked in salt and water to
prevent any change of color.
In these days of inexpensive tablewares
and linens there is no excuse for a woman
not having an attractively set table. Satin
damask and Dresden china may be beyond
her, but ordinary damask and blue and
white china are within her means. Apostle
spoons may bestir her coffee, but there is
no reason why bright well-plated ones, II
silver is impossible, should be lacking. And
with these and a mixture of brains and
taste there is no excuse for sovenly or
unattractive table.
The tablecloth should be not only spot
less, but without wrinkles. To produce a

high gloss on linen it should be firmly
ironed with heavy iron from state of
dampness into one of perfect dryness.
Starch should not be used in either table
cloths or napkins. Beneath the cloth
heavy "silence CLOTH should be placed,
both because it saves wear on table cover
and table and because it looks better.
The middle Of the table should always
be occupied by bowl, in which are either
flowers, leaves or a growing green plant.
I At one end or at the middle Of the side the
mistress of the house should sit with her
coffee or tea things before her at break
fast or luncheon, and the vegetables which
she may serve at dinner. Opposite her
should sit the father Of the family, before
him whatever of the meal he may serve.
The arrangement gives a certain symmetry
to the table, which is in itself attractive.
Spoons should not be placed in spoon
holder, as the custom used to be, but
should lie at each plate in sufficiently large
numbers to carry on the meal. Celery,
olives or radishes should be placed in fiat
dishes. There should be as few tall dishes
as possible on the table, because of the
way in which they interfere with the view
of the members Of the family across the
table.
Unless you have big family of little
girls and not one thorn among the roses,
you will be interested in this account, from
years and sometimes of only eighteen
months old are large enough to be dressed
differently from girls of the same age,
they wear one-piece frocks of white
pique. These are pleated in various
ways, and are trimmed with embroidery
with heavy designs, or else with braid
Both very narrow ribbed and very large
ribbed piques are used. One pretty dress
that is always popular is made of ten
box pleats, three pleats in back and front
the entire length from neck to knee, the
others added on the sides under the belt to
give the skirt more width A belt of
pique nearly three inches wide has braid
along the edges ard is strapped on at the
sides. The large collar may be square in
sailor shape, or else it is in Vandyke
points, two in front and back alike, edged
with scant ruffle of embroidery The
sleeves have gauntlet cuffs, trimmed to
match the collar.
Another boyish little pique dress has the
long waist laid in four narrow box plaits in
back and front, to which is sewed kilt
plated skirt quite full, and SO short that
the knees are scarcely covered. A broad full
collar. deep cuffs, and a belt are of heavy
all-over embroidery edged with scalloped
ruffle. Long stockings of black silk and low
shoes with buckles are worn with this
frock.
Many mothers keep their boys in white all
the year. sometimes using serge if pique Is
not warm enough, while others put them in
colors in winter at the age of 2 years. For
these last are house dresses of blue, brown
or tan cloth. or of serge, the round waist
front having two box plaits lengthwise, the
space between crossed by many rows OF
black or white soutache braid. Large white
pearl buttons are set on the box plaits.
