which her rooms were papered, made

her own paperhanger engaged her to
do their work. For fourteen years she
has worked at odd times at this self
taught trade.
Mrs. Martin McGrath is also a paper
hanger. In her case her husband
taught her the trade, which was his
own. Her husband had been a soldier
in McKinley's regiment. There came
a time when the results Of the hard
campaigning Of earlier days made an
invalid of him. Then Mrs McGrath's
accomplishments became useful and
she took up his business, which she
has practiced with success since.
Mrs. j. Landsberg claims that she is
the pioneer woman paperhanger in the
State. She taught herself the trade
by hard experience, and she has
worked at it for thirty-seven years.
Her two daughters, pet and Jennie
Landsberg. are also expert artisans in
this trade, and received their instruc-
tion from their mother The former
has worked at paperhanging for six
teen, the latter for eight years.
"Our paper don't curl up and come
off, like the paper men put on" says
Mrs. Landsberg Her older daughter
boasts that she does her work standing
on a six-nch plank, while the one men
use is eight inches wide.-Cleyelapd

A Moman,s Work.

In Otscgo County a woman who
owns a small sugar bush and sells her
sugar and syrup every spring to a few
rich families in New York, made no
sugar at all this season. She did more
toward exterminating the worms than
any dozen farmers in the County.
From early morning to night she
fought the miscreants. She sent to
Boston for a spraying apparatus and
killed thousands Of worms on the
trees every day. This year she has
taken time by tho forclock and hung
big open-mouthed bottles of sweet
ened water on the branches Of her
trees to attract and drown the moths
before they lay their eggs, This is
one of the best methods known to
prevent the scourge OF the worm.-

Fnshinns In Mourning.

Entire gowns of crepe for either the
street OF the house are exceedingly
handsome, always becoming and rich
in appearance. When the material is
used for a house gown there are gener-
ally trimmings of dull jet used on it,;
for the street there is absolutely no
trimming, so that the beauty Of the
material is seen to perfection. Grape
wells are made of q much lighter
weight Of Grape than formerly, and it
is the fashion to put them on hats ae
well as bonnets, although this is n
very new fashion that has not gener-
ally been adopted. A small round, fat
hat has a long veil that falls down to
the very hem Of the garment in front,
and in a flat boX-pleat at the back and
is considered correct for q Widows
mourning. The smart Marie Stuart
shape for the bonnet on which the
Grape veil is pinned in folds that fall
back from the face, is the most univer'
sally popular, although within the last
year the fashion of fancy bows and TO
settes, either directly in front Of the
bonnet or at one side, has been very
much affected.-Harper's Bazaar.

American Women and press.

The views on "The American Wom-
an and Dress" expressed by Helen
Watterson Moody, in the Ladies' Home
Journal, are based on the marked diff
ference in the way the different ma
tionalities of women visitors at the
Paris Exposition last summer treated
the problem Of clothes. The English
women were gowned with the utmost
regard for utility and comfort. The
American and French women appeared
in toilets Of silk and satin and lace
which properly had no place whatever
in the Exposition grounds. But while
the French women's clothes were as
beautiful as the American women's,
and fuller of that indescribable charm
called style, they were not nearly so
costly. The cost of dressing grows
greater every year, and the shifts Of
fashion are prompter and more inn
perative. Where the English woman
goes plainly dressed with n serene
mind the American woman 'keeps up
with the fashion," but lines her face
with anxious thought as to how 1t
shall be managed. Our last seasons
gowns, perfectly fresh and just as
pretty and suitable as ever, are altered
and recut and retrimmed at the cost
of so many dollars and much time and
hard work, not because they need it,
not because we want to, either, but
simply because Mrs. Wood across the
way, and Mrs. Pope in the next street
are doing the same thing-and they
are doing it because we are! The
truth is, we American women not only
lay too much emphasis upon dress. so
that It takes quite too prominent
place in our scheme of life, but we
also spend too much money on dress.

oN HER pREssINo TAeLE.
A Double Set Of Toilet Brushes and other
Novelties.

A Double Set Of Toilet Brushes and other
Novelties.
The dainty maiden has a double set
of tooth brushes, hair brushes and nail
brushes; that is to say, two of EACH
This is not an extravaganza in her
eyes, but a means Of giving each brush
opportunities of being aired, summed
and sweetened. The hair brush is
used one week, and then retired to be
carefully cleansed and aired, not going
into commission again until the fol
lowing week. Travelling by railway
car, or coaching or driving on an open
road, or even walking the streets,
brings dust upon the person.
The dust elings to ones hair. We do
not wash long locks of hair as often
as we do our face and hands. Conse-
quently the brush, which is in effect
the dry bath of the hair, seems to pick
up a great deal of dust. Brushing the
hair removes the dust, and cleansing
the hair brush removes it from that
implement of the toilet. Give the
brush and comb a good summing and
airing after they have been washed.
The tooth brush requires plenty of
air and sunlight to keep it from discol-
oring. There is a curved tooth brush
for cleaning the inside row Of teeth
and one for regular outside service.
The nail brush requires airing and
summing just as the tooth brush does.
For this reason q double set is a good
investment These small accessories
OF the toilet should be Kept in order.
They seem a clue to personal cleanli'
ness and daintiness. A young girl
should be trained to keep her toilet ar
ticles in order, to see that her brushes
and combs are clean and bright. The
tooth brush should be frequently dis
carded for a new one. A discolored
tooth brush should form no part Of the
toilet articles of the dainty girl.
A fine little camel's-hair brush has
lately been added to the bureau equip
ment of toilet articles. This is called
the "brow brush" but its use is not
conducive tosuperciltousnessn nor brow
beating behavior to those likely to be
borne down by arrogant frowns 1t is
simply a soft little brush intended to
keep the eyebrows in order. Those
who have thick eyebrows are some
times troubled by unruly behavior of
fine hair which will not lie smooth. 1t
is recommended to brush the eyebrow
softly away from the nose when you
take occasion to brush your hair. Only
a delicate brush should be used for the
purpose.
In selecting a toilet comb run your
finger over the edge Of the teeth so
that you can pick out comb with
rounded edges to the teeth Do not
use one with sharp teeth, with angles
to catch and break your hair. 1t is Of
importance to have a comb that will
deal gently as well as thoroughly with
the hair. 1t is not worth while at this
date to inveigh against the use Of
fine-tooth comb, for they are never
used by any one who respects the nat
mal growth OF the hair. Choose a
comb with teeth quite wide apart, and
with softly rounded edges to the teeth.
