INTEREST TO EASTER BRIDES.

A VERY barbarous custom is fortunately
~ going to be laid on the shelf, and
that is delugiug the bride and groom
with rice. II sUCn strong demonstration of
friendship requires pelting OF any kind,
flowers are to be used instead. But why,
because two people have decided TO be made
one, should they have things thrown upon
them at all Is hard to understand. An
old slipper aimed at the carriage as it
carries off the newly-wed 10 the station
may he a mascot of luck. but it doubtless
has never kept off a divorce, if such a
thing fate holds in store for those Just
joined in the bands OF holy matrimony land
like the rain, it dCscends upon the just as
we'll as the unjust But even the slipper
is harmless compared with the rice bUsi-
ness. This is simply too Dortifytng, and
is apt TO follow the couple all through their
honeymoon; for the small grains of this
otherwise harmless cereal fall in the um-
brella folds. Iurk i'll the brides hat, drop
Unexpectedly from the bridegroom's coat
pockets, aud is in evidence to such a de-
gree that no amount of old gloves worn
and trunks used covered with marks OF
past trips will keep the young tourists
from being known everywhere on their

SILK SHADE is NO MORE.

~ HE decline of the big sleeve may be
problematical, but the decline ofthe be-
frilled lamp shade is a fact. Silently.
and by degrees. it is folding its ballet-dancer
fiuffiness and stealing away to make
room for bult-shaped globes of exquisite
glass. The latter are of all colors, many
of them ename!ed in gold, and range in
price from So to 81.
The effect upon entering room illum-
ined by them is novel and charming. A
yellow harvest moon seems beamng in
one corner, the rosy glow of sunrise warns
another, but the very prettiest effects are
the white and blue Delft globes. where a
blue ship In the foreground sails appar-
emily on veritable sea, while the white
light behind gives atmosphere and distance.
All house furnishing fashions to become
permanent must unite with the beauty of
the article some element of durability.
Fancy silk shades, although costly, soon
become hopelessly dusty, and have the ap-
pearance of detected stage finery, while
they vie with the Fourth OF July cracker
as a frebrand and menace to the com
munity.

THE AMERICAN COUTURE.

NXYHEN our language grows n little
" richer il will perhaps supply itself
with name for the hair in a Condi-
tion of orderly arrangement. Until then
there seems no way but to serve ourselves
with the French word ''coiffure,' which
does not asSimilate with English at all.
The word headdress given by the diction-
aries is an absurdity; we have no name
for the thing. French milliners say we have
not the thing. They say that the careless
ness Of American women about arranging
the hair is liable to spoil the effect OF the
most successful hat. j merely repeat what
is said.
1t ought not to be difficult to follow
the present French fashion. 1t is the same
as il has been for SOME time; Il loose waving
all round the head and the ends dra WI into
a small knot behind. 1t falls over the ears
and the extreme OF fashion covers the ear
entirely, though it should be said that many
elegant women continue tn draw the hair
back to expose the ear The hair B not
worn high on the head except with evening
dress, when coiffure, high or low is natter

TO REGAIN YOUR YOUTH.

fully intending TO do this, but before night
fall realize that we have been ship@
wrecked on the ScylIa OF duties, real or
imaginary. or enguifed in the Charybdis
OF social hurry.
Why not really make up our minds that
one hour daily should be devoted TO recrea-
ton Or resting in some manner? Either we
will walk an hour, lie down an hour, read
an hour, sew, knit, do fancy work, visit
or chat with q congenial friend for an hour.
In short, we will oyerturn our common
methods for one brief space daily. The
result of months fair trial of this plan
will encourage to further effort in the
same direction, and in faithful observance
OF some such system we shall renew our
youth like the eagles" while many OF
the worn and toilsome places will take
on new beauties ''and blossom as the
