care. Never trust to a cedar closet for
keeping valuable woolens or furs. One
famous houSekeeper had a cedar closet
built into a new house that was the
envy of every woman who saw it
with its shelves and drawers all en-
closed, with tightly fitting doors that
gave out such a delicious odor when
the outer door of all was opened, anG
seemed to invite the care of everything
most precious.
That summer, the first year she had
owned the closet she packed her furs
and went to Europe with an easy mind.
Among other things, a Russian sable
cape of enormous size. and very val
liable, was put in the closet. When she
reached home, opened her closet and
took out her furs, she found that Moth
ing had escaped the moths, and her
cloak was such a mass of worms that
it had to be buried at once. This is
absolutely true, and many of the very
best and most careful housekeepers
now consider cedar really a moth pro-
Queer, and cedar receptacles of any
sort worse than no protection at all.
The very best sort of chest to pack
clothing away in is good Z)lid chest
of good size and heavy and we'll fitted

carpenter can make. and if given a
coat of shellac or varnish outside, it

paper lined trunks should never be used,
for under the paper the moths are
more than likely to have deposited their
eggs Carpets that are nailed down
close to the Dashboard are often eaten
there-even when the room is spen and
most carefully swept. The only way to
prevent it is to saturate the carpet once
week in spring and summer with a
little turpentine on the places where
the moths have eaten or are likely to
eat This will not injure the most deli
cate coiors, and is the best preservative
from moths known.

HOW TO SUCCESSFULLY
MIROIR OLD VELVET

"Miroir velvet is as popular as ever
remarked fashionable milliner who
is as noted for her amiability as for
the style of her hats and bonnets.
And it is not always easy to get
good assortment of colors, even in
large shops. 1t is as well, hen, for one
to know how to make it themselves
THE velvet is laid on a smooth pres
ing board which is not too thicklv
padded. A large hot iron should then
be passed quickly over it. The iron
must be slid rather than pressed, but

remove the iron until it has passed
from edge to edge of the velvet, and
always start at the edge, even If ii

twice; and always press the right way
of the velvet. Every woman under
stands the up and down of cloth and
velvet. and you must press down the
direction of the pile, and always follow
the straight thread of the velvet. When
pressing a bias piece the iron must
always go slanting from edge to edge,
whereas If it is straight you press IN
a straight line.

Every woman should know how to

A little pains and patience are exer-
cised To raise the flue Of leather
that has been worn in the damp air or
laid away some time, hold it over the
hot top of a stove or near crate fire,
gently shaking all the while. OF course
there are times when feathers need
steaming and though one may be able
to do that part successfully, the dry
ing is more difficult. SO it is best to
send them to the dryer. There is a
knife made expressly for curling feath-
ers, which is satisfactory. Its blade is
curved, so that the pressure of the
thumb on the feather may be perfectly
even.

Each garment should be folded sepa-
rately and very smoothing and wrapped
in old linen or cotton sheets, or parts
of them.
Newspaper is an excellent thing to
fold things in, as for some reason
moths particularly object to it. The
chests that things are to be packed
away in should be carefully wiped out
perfectly clean with a wet cloth, so
that not a particle of dust fingers. 1t is
well to spread large old sheet over

a word must be said for the admir-
able new golf glove, that has been
through the process of regeneration

palm of antelope skin or grey castor

sung for the benefit of the white hats

shape that the angle of the sunlight or

is to turn the brim up behind and down

chiffon veil is not used, then the hat

TWO BEAUTIFUL GIRLS
WHO BOTH WEAR CROWNS

The evident beauty of the Russian
empress face is so overshadowed by an
expression of patient, pathetic melan-
choly that she arouses sympathy and
curiosity in everyone. Undoubtedly the
czarina is not a happy woman. Rus
sian expresses have little enough to
inspire content, and this pale. pretty
creature with the sad eyes and mouth,
endures daily such tests of her physical
strength and moral courage as few
American women would care or con-
sent, for all the Russian state and
power, to undergo. Her husband, on
the whole, is a kindly young man, who
