Proper attention must be paid to the
brushes one uses if one values her
hair. To begin with, brushes should
be kept spotlessly clean. Have them
made of moderately stiff bristles, not
too long, and put in singly-that is,
not close together. Closely set long
bristles are very liable to assist in
spelling the hair. They are apt to
split at the ends and catch the hair as
1t passes through them and break it
of. Watch the brushes closely, and
when a split bristle is found it should
be removed at onca,

Mrs. Maybrick is an American wom-
an with the blood of Revolutionary
patriots in her veins. She possessed
in her girlhood striking beauty, deli
cate, fair complexion, fair hair and
blue eyes, a slender, graceful figure,
with dignity of carriage, which still
survives. She had a brilliant mind,
which had been improved by study and
travel and natural taste for reading.
She is an accomplished linguist, plan
ist and draws and paints, and her man.
ner, after eight years of confinement
in prison, is still that of a we'll bred,
polished woman.
During the long interval since the
prison doors first closed upon Mrs.
years of age, she has suffered many in
dignities of mind and body.
An indignity that was heaped on her
was the manner of her removal from
Working to Aylesbury. She was at that
time i'll with congestion of the lungs,
and in the infrmary, but she was
forced to rise, dress, and was manacled
during the entire journey.
AS to Mrs. Maybrick herself, as a
woman, the manner in which she has
borne her terrible doom is sufficiently
attested by the profound respect and
attention which have been felt for her
in every prison where she has been
and by all who have come in contact
with her, from the governor to the at
tendants and the poor convicts them
selves
The management of the prisons for
women in England is very different
from those for men. For one thing
women convicts are not now required
to wear a distinctive prison garb, or
at least none that would tend to lessen
their self respect
The prisoners rise at o'clock and
are served with bread and cocoa in
their cells. Breakfast over, they work
alone in their cells-those not as
signed to the kitchen or laundry-until
II o'clock, when they walk in the yard
three and three, until noon. Work is
resumed and continued from IL to l.
Then dinner is served, which consists
of bread and soup, mixed with meat
and vegetables, all cooked together
and this is also served in the cell In
a wooden bowl with wooden spoon
From to o'clock each prisoner is al.
lowed to sit outside her door in the
gallery upon which her cell opens, and
for an hour they are permitted to talk
with each other.
Work is resumed after Association, u
as this hour of conversation is termed
until supper time, and at o'clock the
prisoners are locked in their cells.

Serving Hot DelIcacies.

Many of the hot delicacies that ap-
pear upon our menus are best when
served in the same dishes that they
are cooked in. For this purpose
graceful open-work silver frames may
be found holding little brown glazed

would otherwise be an unsightly recep-

Beautiful baskets of quaint shapes,

much used for the centre of dining
