Round Tables Again.

For luncheons, afternoon teas and
evening suppers nothing compares in
favor or effectiveness with the polished

polished tables, round, square or OBJ

are, of course, made the background
for beautiful lace effects, in center
pieces, large and small doilies. New
mahogany may be aged by processes
that are known to furniture Dealers
and defaced or dull woods may be re-
newed and polished. A top 60 inches
in diameter will seat seven or even
eight comfortably, and one 72 inches
will seat IL. A large dolly is placed
at each cover, and every article on the
table Excepting the silver and glasses
at the individual covers) has something
under it proportional to it's size. These

striking as it is pleasing.-Ella Morris

THE UNHAPPY CZARINA.
II Is Reported That the Empress OF
Russia Does Not Enjoy Her
SplendOr.


The evident beauty of the Russian
empress face is so overshadowed by
an expression of patient, pathetic mel
ancholy that she arouses sympathy and
curiosity in everyone. Undoubtedly the
czarina is not happy woman. Russian
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 kindly young man who
is considerate, even affectionate, but
he can do very little to mitigate the Sc
we're, even cruel Russian court etiquette
to which she must bow; with her he
shares the daily terror of assassina-
ton, and with his people he laments
the fact that the empress has not yet
given an heir to his throne.
In spite of her beauty and her vir-
tues, the empress is not loved by the
Russian people nor consulted and con-
fided in by her husband as her mother
in-law, Empress Dagmar, the dowager,
was. She has neither the robust
physique nor the ambitious interests
of the clever dowager, and court in.
trigues, squabbles and etiquette dis
tress and fatigue her. 1t is fact well
known that up to the very day before
her betrothal she resisted the change
of her religion and Christian name that
every Russian empress consort must
yield to; again and again she has faint
ed at the long receptions, balls and re-
views through which, in spite of her ill.,
ness, she is obliged to stand, and the
only true comfort and solace she finds
in her dreary splendor is the personal
services and attentions she is allowed
to lavish on her tiny girls.-Detroit

SLIGHT MISUNDERSTANDING.
The Hunting Enthusiast Didn't Re.
ceive What He Sent His
Nun After.

There was once a Worcester man
who had a young French Canadian in
his employ, and the young French
Canadian had but lately crossed the
border, SO that his stock of English
was small. The man was Maine
woods enthusiast, and on one of his
periodical trips he had the luck to
shoot fine buck, or else to have his
guide shoot one-it is always difficult
to tell which is, you know.
At all events he brought the buck
home, with him and had the head and
antlers mounted to put up in his office.
The taXidermist sent the finished prod
uct to his house. The man did not
want to carry the thing down town
himself, proud as he was of it, so the
next day he summoned the young

FEMININE FASHIONS,
Little Things That Count in the
Adornment of WOmen's
Costumes.

Among the small accessories of dress
shown in the shops, neckwear has a
very conspicuous place. From the
simple bow of tulle to the elaborate
ftchu there is wide range of styles
and materials, something for everyone
and for every gown. Both colored and
white tulle bows are worn, and there
are colored and white gauze scarfs with
frilled ends and gauze stock collars
with a short bow in front, finished on
the ends with a tiny ruche. Lace stocks,
with a fold of colored velvet around
the upper edge, and sailors knot
or tied bow, are among the prettiest
of all the array; but dainty things are
also made of mousseline de sole, with
lace corners at the back and applique
lace sewn on the ends. One pretty
idea is a stock and fchu combined,
made of fine gauze laid in folds around
the neck, crossing at the back, and
forming revers which have the effect
Of tichu, pointing down to the belt.
Pretty fichus are made of chiffon with
applique lace founces scattered all
overthem. Very useful stocks are made
of taffeta silk, with full, graceful bow
One very essential point to be con-
sidered in buying the stocks is that
the style shall be becoming, and the
color match the hat trimming. Crepe
dc chine and lace are combined very
prettily; for example, make the stock
of crepe de chine with lace corners turn
ing over the back, and lace around the
neck tying in knot, with rather long
ends in front. White wash silk with
plenty of hemstitching makes very
pretty stocks in this style, to wear over
cotton shirt waists. The very best ma
terials must be used for all the neck
wear, as it's freshness disappears soon
enough, even under the best conditions.
Embroidered muslins we'll covered
with incrustations of applique lace are
one of the most fashionable materials
for thin gowns. Made over mauve,
blue or pink taffeta, with tuck of
black in the finish, they are charming.
Pretty ewing gowns for summer are
made of India null Ella boratcly trimmed
with yellow Valcnciennes lace. They
are made over white silk and finished
with yellow satin ribbon bows.
Very small gold buttons adorn the
bodices of net, lace and crepe de chine
gowns.
Large hats, which are something be.
tween the old-fashioned picture hats
and the poke shape, are the coming
style for midsummer wear, and the
novelty in trimming is covering the in,
side of the brim with flowers.
For evening dress young girls gowns
are made of tulle trimmed with rose
petals or green leaves, the former on
pink tulle over pink silk being es.
pecially attractive.-N. Y. Sun.

The scrap. of Bread.

Though little in themselves, the
scraps that are left from cutting bread
and the pieces of old bread after each
baking are considerable in bulk. There
are also few pieces of bread left after
meals, even when bread is cut very
carefully, and such pieces are too dry
before another meal is served to be
put on the table again. Such even
pieces can be trimmed from crust and
laid aside for toast. The crumbs and
scraps from the cutting and all broken
pieces left in the breadbox when the
new baking is put away should be dried
for crumbs, rolled and sifted and put
away in boxes. These crumbs must be
absolutely free from moisture, or they
will mold. If they are perfectly dried
they will keep months, or until they
become damp from any cause and spoil
for that reason.-N. Y. Tribune.
