Brush and Comb Holders,
rnm the PHILADELPHIA Times


The china and silver brush and comb
trays are not nearly so desirable or fash
ionable today as the simple silk and satin
holders, which can be made at home with
ease. They are made in various forms to
initiate objects in nature. The most con-
venient and serviceable shape is that of a
melon. Cut out of stiff cardboard the sides
of the case, and make them as long as the
brush and comb. Cover them first with
cheese cloth and pad them out to the prop
er rotundity with sheet waddng Then
sew together strips of satin and silk rib
bons to give the effect of melon stripes
Line the inside with some plain silk Each
end of the case is then securely sewed to-
gether and finished off with bows of rib
bon. The case can be made either to stand
up on the bureau or to be suspended with
fancy cords or ribbons If carefully made,
they are distinct ornaments to the bureau
and they are less injurious to the bristIes
of the brush than the silver and china
trays, which do in time bend and loosen
them.

The Cradle Once More.


The revival Of the cradle seems a pro-
test against many Of the lately accepted
theories of bringing up babies, and as such
will be received with joy by many a mother
who, realizing herself to be perfect in
health and mental force. and knowing that
she was rocked to sleep every night during
the first two years of her life. has been
bewildered by the information that she was
Importing her baby's life and reason by
the same indulgence, and has even felt
guilty when "sleepy-bye time made the
long, easy swing in the big rocking chair,
with a little, soft, warm bundle in her
arms, seem the most delightful motion on
earth. OF course, the quick. jerky motion
of carelessly rocked cradle is bad. ANY
uneven motion is inadvisable for a child,
but after banshing all cradles from our
nurseries specialists have apparently re-
considered the matter and ordered them
back, arguing that the motion properly
controlled, is excellent exercise for the in

New Shade of Gloves,
From the Boston Journal


Truly heroic efforts have been made in
the present season to down the white
glove, and enforce the adoption of a more
serviceabie, less expensive luxury, and a
number of women persist in wearing gray
castor beaver for all save social occasions
of distinct Formally. The smart now gray
glove is heavily stitched in white. has in
place of buttons a puckered elastic wrist
and the three-inch length the wrist folds
back, as far as the base of the thumb, in a
widlsh cuff. Such is the glove for horsey,
cycling, boating purposes. A revival has
been successfully carried out in favor of
the biarritz sack glove, than which there
never was a more comfortable hand cover
ing ever invented.

The small girl with housewifey instincts

Muslin Garden Hats.

From the Chicago Tribune.
The muslin garden hats may be made at
home easily; in fact, over half the smart
women have them made by their maids at
home, as they cost high at the shops.
Some of them are all muslin, while others
have Rough straw crown and a plissed
muslin or lawn brim. Any old hat crown
may be used for this purpose if it is not
faded or stained
OF course, if the crown is of straw the
hat cannot be Numbered, and for this kind
cheap, stuff muslin, almost like tarlatan.

and the hat is finished by bow of the
muslin standing erect in front. The wash
hats are made of much finer muslin and
nave the brims buttoned on or hooked to
the muslin crown, SO that they may be re-
moved TO be washed. They are Starched
stiff, indeed, and make the coolest-looking
hats. They resemble somewhat the hats of
small children, but that is no disadVan-

New Logging n Dandage,

From the New York Herald.
The newest thing in bicycle or golf leg
ging for both men and women is in the
form of a ribbon bandage, wound about the
leg in the same manner as a bandase in
the case of an injury. 1t is made of very
thin. but tough, material, about two inches
wide and four yards long. At the top there
is a narrow leather strap, with buckle to
be fastened snugly about the leg just be-
low the knee.
1t is said of these bandage leggings that
they fit more closely and look neater than
any other kind, while they yield to every
motion of the muscles.

Lace Stoies Popular.

lace stole is as popular as the lace
jacket. The little garment is generally
made with the two long ends falling from
lace yoke One exhibited with the CAS-
cot gowns was of nlalines. over frock
of pink mousseline. The frock was quite
simple, trimmed only by several ruffies at
the bottom. 1t had tight sleeves, with a
full ruffle at the elbow. On the front of
the stole, between the two ends, was a
rosette of black tulle, with a straw center

were faced with dark red, over which were
upper detachable revers of embroidery. y
vest OF white and soft white fchu of
embroidered silk were worn with this.
There were at this same house two young
girls, who were constantly playing tennis.
One could almost imagine they slept on the
tennis court, so early did they appear there
with their balls and racquets. Never did
these graceful young sylphS present that
awful appearance of blOusiness and dshev-
eledness that the English or American dew
Otee of tennis presents on the court. one
morning one of these girls came down
wearing dainty frOck of green barege, the
skirt closely fitted. but still of ample enough
dimensions to allow plenty of opportunity
for running and jumping about after the
ball. y fiounce of ecru taffeta laid in loose
plaitS was put on the skirt, quite narrow in
front but deepening in the back. The waist
was fairly simple, with it's box-plaited front
and wide shoulder collar of taffeta, edged
with a plated frill, and buttoned down on
each side of the front box plaits with two
large ornamental buttons. This was scarce
ly a gown which an American mother
would select for tennis but as a walking
gown or for afternoon dress it seemed to
me it would fit into the economy of some
American mothers ideas of what would
be proper for her daughters wardrobe.
Pretty Model This.

made with pointed arrangement of box

headed with tiny caps formed of bias plaits
OF the silk and pointed pieces trimmed with
narrow insertion. The pointed cravat of the
same silk as the waist was trimmed at the
head of the hem with row of the inser-
ton, that gave it quite an appearance of
chic and jauntiness.

be brushed downward and the lower ones

rinse the mouth with clear water. Once a
