VII, Use SCOT. Hereafter.

There is long standing dispute
whether got or gotten" is the
preferable participle, and the recent
experience of college professor may
throw some light on the subject. He
telegraphed to his wife: Il have got
ten tickets for the opera tonight. Meet
me there" The telegraph operator
rendered this into Have got ten tick
cts" etc. Mrs. Professor was delighted
with the opportunity of entertaining
her friends, and accordingly made up
a party of eight beside herself, and
they all met the professor in front of
the opera house that evening. We may
imagine the feelings of the unfortunate
man, and no one knows how he eX-
planned matters, but we may be sure
that he will not use gotten" again in
a telegram.

NV Lady,s Sewing Screen.

A delightful decorative and useful
note in my lady's morning room is the
sewing screen, gracious little affair
combining all the comforts of thread
basket, pincushion, needle case, work
bag, catch-all and table. One such
screen, which graces the bedroom cor
ner in the home of busy little house
wife, is fashioned of yellow denim and
delicately lowered yellow silk, and
can be very easily carried out in any
color by pair of clever hands.
The framework, which consists of
two leaves IS inches wide. is about three
feet high and is covered from the out
side and fastened on the inside corners
with fancy gilt nails. Each leaf is divid-
ed into three parts, the upper and lower
given over to pockets made of the silk.
A needle case covered with silk and a
pincushion of yellow plush hang from
the top of each leaf, respectively. Two
fat pieces of pasteboard covered with
the silk fall against the middle division
of each leaf. one being held by ribbons
to form a wide pocket, the other stand
ing for a small shelf or table when
caught by ribbons to two fancy-headed
nails on either side of the screen above.

THE HAIR AT NIGHT.
A System of Treatment Which, In the
Course OF Year, VIII Almost
Work Wonders.

At bedtime unfasten your hair and
brush it. Brush it half an hour every
evening for a month; after that brush
it Is minutes nightly-ten minutes, if
you have no more time. Loosen it COM
pletely, rub 1t with your fingers, rub
bling and brushing alternately, using,
as before, first a soft, soothing brush,
then a vigorous, stiff one. Brush it to
the tips of the longest strands. Gather
it loosely for the night, allowing full
ventilation, and in the morning brush
it Is minutes at first, afterward ten
minutes devotedly every day. If your
hair is thin and threatens to fall, or the
parting is growing inconveniently
wide, let it down at night and massage
the scalp. Rub it, gather the loose skin
between the fingers, pinch it little, in
vent exercise for it with the tip of the
fingers. Give it some work to do every
day, and brush it. Part it on the side
at night and give the days parting a
rest.
No treatment of this sort produces a
sudden or spectacular result, but if
there is no disease of the hair follicles
and the general health is good, it will
often work wonders in a twelvemonth.
Once in couple of months. more often
or less, as you find your need-go to a
good hairdresser, who will run your
locks, tress by tress, through comb,
shipping the broken or split hairs and
leaving healthy, growing ends. No in
discriminate chopping at the end of
braid with rash, amateurish scissors
will produce results of much value

TAKE A NAP DAILY.
Fifteen Minutes sleep After the
Midday Meal Works Wonders i'm
Almost Every Case.

During the day everyone should take
a few minutes sleep, preferably direct
ly after the noon meal" writes Edward
B. Warman, in his ''Five-Minute Talks
on Good Health" in the Ladies Home
Journal. 1.-THE time given to it may
seem too precious for one in business,
but it will be more than compensated
for by the mental and bodily condition
that follows. Sit in an easy chair. Ly-
ing down directly after a meal crowds
the digestive organs and makes ones
sleep restless instead of restful. Rest
the head comfortably. Tip the chair to
a pleasant angle for the body, not
enough to have the weight of the body
on the back. Place the feet upon a
chair as high or trifie higher than
upon the one upon which you are sit
ting; cross the limbs at the ankle
joints, close the hands together by in
terlacing the fingers, place the fieshy
part of the thumbs together in order
to avoid grasping the hands too tightly,
and close the eyes. Having thus closed
the circuit, it will be necessary for you
to relieve yourself of all nervous and
muscular tension; think only of your
slow, measured breathing and the de-
sire for restful Sleep

To Keep Dainty Wells.

A capital way of retaining the shape
of wells and keeping them in good con-
dition is to pull them out each time
after removing from the hat or bonnet
and to carefully roll them around long
cushion made in the form of a small
bolster. This veil bolster may be filled
with the following composition: Flor
entine orris root, powdered, half a
pound; rosewood, powdered, six ounces;
calamus aromaticus, half pound; vel
low sanders, a quarter of a pound; gum
Benjamin. three ounces; powdered
cloves, half an ounce; cinnamon, one
ounce. Grind all together and stuff the
bolster tightly. 1t may be covered with
silk or thin chamois leather and en-
broidered if desired Chicago Tribune.

How To Renoxate velvet

A simple method of cleaning velvet,
selveteen and plush is the following.
The rule applies to all three kinds of
goods, as all have a pile. and if fiat
tened must be assisted to rise again:
With the assistance of a stiff whisk
broom, pan of boiling water and an
obliging friend who will brush up the
nap as you hold the goods taut over
the steam the wrong side to the water,
these materials will look like new. This
process removes wrinkles, brightens
the color and makes the crushed nap
stay up when brushed against the
grain, and will answer for black or col
bred pile fabrics. If the velvet has a
grease spot on it remove it with French
chalk before steaming. A sticky spot
may be lightly touched with clean
cold water before the steaming process.

THREE WORTHY WORDS.

Ny lad, three lessons would write,
Three words upon your heart engrave,
Through all your life, to guide you right
Be true, be kind, be brave.
Be TRUE, whatever may betide;
Speak, act the truth at any cost;
OF little worth is all beside,
If trust in you be lost
BE KIND, another's feelings heed;
Slight no occasion you may find
For gentle word and loving deed;
IT'S noble to be kind.
Be BRAVE, with courage true and strong
Mind neither ridicule nor sneer;
To dare to do the weak wrong
But proves the basest fear.
If you, my lad, these lessons three,
These simple words, your motto make,
Esteem and honor yours shall be,
With fortune in their wake

Way to Acquire Grace.

A French gymnast declares that
American girls do not pay sufficient at
tention to the development of their
arms, but think too much of their waist
lines, while if the arms were properly
treated the waist would take care of it
self. The French girls are extremely
strong in their arms, she says, and their
grace comes from the dizziness with
which they balance themselves; to see
a French woman carry a heavy package
is delight. The way to acquire grace
and a slender, supple figure is by exer-
cises with the dumb-bells and by rails
ing and lowering the body by the arms
and toes when lying fiat on the floor.
