linen fresh and snowy white. shining
silver, delicious tea, or coffee and fresh
flowers and fruit when possible, the ap-
petite will feel itself stimulated. A
pretty breakfast, as well as an appetite
ing one, is generally a promoter of good
temper. An unattractive breakfast,
with soiled linen, weak tea, tough, cold
toast or bitter coffee is enough to affect
both temper and digestion. Therefore,
let our homes be bright and sunny and

In buying gloves there are more i'm
portant considerations than their color
and the number OF the buttons. Black
gloves are generally less elastic than
white or colored ones. and cheap grades
are dear at any price. Dressed KID US
ually retains its freshness longer and
is more durable than suede.
The best and most serviceable glove
is most always yielding and elastic. A
glove SO small that it cramps the hand
! is of no account whatever. Short-fin-
gered gloves are by no means pretty
i
and are soon certain to break either be-
| tween the fingers or at the tips. The
way in which glove is first drawn on
has much to do with its beauty and
durability. This must be done when
one is at leisure, and, if possible, they
should be worn half an hour without
closing the fingers. In buttoning a
glove the greatest strain comes upon
the first button. so before attempting
to fasten this, button the others, com
mencing with the second one, lastly the
first
Never button one glove with the fin
gers of a gloved hand. Do not begin
at the tips Of the fingers to pull them
off. Turn back the wrists and draw
them eff inside out, but on no consider
alton leave them in this shape or roll
them. Turn them right side ont.
smooth them lengthwise and put away
by themselves with strip of canton
flannel under and between them.
To mend torn button-hole. stitch
closely around the edges once or twice,
as the size of the rent may require, and
then join the edges together. Save the
buttons from discarded gloves to re-
place lost ones. They often match per-
fectly.
How do you put on your veil? If
you wear one. 1t is wide and long, and
must be arranged with care to give it
the correct droop. If you do the proper
thing there are a few inches gathered
right in the centre of the top edge, and
this is daintily caught with a fancy
pin to your velvet hat. Both ends
are also gathered, and, therefore, you
nave no difficulty in catching them to-
gether evenly.
Cold cream is essential to a womans
beauty this time of year, when the wind
blows and chaps the lips and complex
ion. To make a vely good cold cream
that will keep indefinitely, secure about
pound of mutton fat Fry it out on
the kitchen stove after the manner
known to housewives. After the grease
has been all extracted, strain through a
piece of cheesecloth until it is perfect
ly clear Now add few drops Of
camphor and teaspoonful Of melted
lard Pour while warm into your cold
cream jar, and when it hardens you will
have an exquisite white cream of the
consistency of vaseline. This can be
applied nightly to The lips It will keep
forever.
