WILL NOT KNOW THE BRAND.
Champagne Drinkers al New York Gatherinss to Be Kept in
 Ignorance.

A fashion that is finding greater ac- ceptance every day in New York is likely to be the despair of the cham pagne agents, reports the New York Sun. Many of the hoEtesses who en- certain more frequently and elabor- ately now see that the labels are washed from the champagne bottles. This leaves the guests in ignorance of the kind of champagne they are drinking. AS champagne bottle is very likely at private dinner to be wrapped in a napkin the necessity of this precauticn to conceal the brand is not always apparent. It is imita- tion of a habit that has prevailed abroad for some time, and probably derives the vogue from that fact. In houses of the London nobility and at all the court functions at Windsor or any of the palaces the labels of the champagne bottles are removed in order that no person may be able to say that this brand of wine or the other is drunk there. Champagne agents may well fear the introduction of such a fash ion here, although some of them are so frequently in the houses of their clients that they can explain what tke brand is if other means of discovery be lacking.

UTILITY OF SHOEBAGS.
Some Points About an Article That
 Every Dressna k3ng-Roc Should Have.

The fashion of shoebags is in danger of being abandoned with many other good old-fashioned things which mod ern people have no time for. These bags should be made of dark ticking or canvas, and stretched across a con venient door in a closet of clothes, which is supplied with air and light, says the New York Tribune It is i'm portant that the shoes should be well aired. Instead of close pockets arrange straps to hold the shoes. When you put the latter away turn back the tops of high boots and arrange the soles of all shoes against the back of the bay, so that they will be we'll aired on tie in- side. 1t is just as easy, when one is once trained to do so, 0 put shoes away in such a bag as it is to throw them on the floor. If they are arranged in the bag as described, they will be we'll aired in 12 hours, and this is about the time 8 pair of shoes should rest after being worn. No par of shoes worn day after day lasts so Tong as the same pair would if it was worn the same length of time with "'regt" between the pe- riods of use. It is cheaper to keep two pairs of shoes and wear them alter nQtely, so that they can have these rests when the leather gets into it's proper shape.
 Rubber cases are made of canvas. They are designed to hold oversh0es when one is going from place to place and they are not needed for wear. Hem two opposite sides of piece of canvas If inchs square. Gather the other two sides on circles 34a inches in diam eter, using to stay them g bright cov- cred cord which will match feather stitching covering the hem. En- broider the word ''rubbers'' on the case in the same color as the cording and feather stitching, When filled this forms a round little case, the hens be- ing lapped over and buttoned with three buttons.

ABOUT BREATHING.
Physician's AGviee for Those Who
 Are Afflicted with Weak lIuEUs.

In order that each organ and tissue of the body may best perform it's function, it must have good, geper- ous supply of oxygen. This must come into the system through the lungs Full breathing of the best air insures the securing of this whole some oxygen supply, says a doctor in Housekeeping.
 Most people breathe too shallow, and heRce most people would find it to their advantage to take some es- Peeia1 breathing exercise. Those whose occupations tax the lungs taking 8 good deal of ''wind''-are the least liable to need these exercises, but nearly all those who follow the quiet avocations-those of the seden- tary orGer-are too unconscious of their treathing. and easily become shallow brcathers, with flat, debili- tated chests, and as a result debili- tated bodies, for the condition of the blood is regulated by the amount of oxygen 1t receives.
 There are few of the class alluded to, with the exception or those whose lungs have become too weak who would not be benefited by getting out into the morning air to take 20 or so full breoths, completely filling the lungs at every inspiration. To obtain the best results from such exercise, these breaths should be taken slowly, and held E bit before expiration; and all through the day, while at work, an occasional, or even "semi-occasion- al' breath of this sort starts one along wonderfully. In case of weak or actually diseased lungs more care must be taken unless undue strain is put upon the lungs; begin with but three CT four of these breaths, mod erotely taken, at first, and gradually Increased as the lungs become adapt cd and stronger, as they most cer- tainIy will under the regular and per sistent Gction of such q tonic
 One should breathe through the nos- trilE rather than the mouth. The fine hairs growing in the nostrils serve to prevent more or less dust from en- terinG the breathing tract, while this longer and more tortuous passage to the lungs gives the air warming be- fore it reaches the sensitive lung, a fact of considerable significance in cold and damp weather, when catarrh, bronchitis, pneumonia, etc.. are rife. Breathing through the mouth is noisy and coarse, causes the dissemination of bad odors, and besides gives the countenarce blank, unintelHgent ex- DresSiOD
