THE LAUNDRY SHAFT.

rooms are located, to the laundry on
the first floor or in the basement. Down
through this shoot can be sent the soil
ed bedding, the soiled towels and
clothing, without the necessity Of a
trip down stairs, The top of this shaft
can be located in the back, upper hall
or wherever in the rear Of the house
the location of the laundry below may
make it necessary. The Illustrations
sufficiently explain themselves. Where
the laundry is In the basement such a
shaft becomes almost an absolute ne
cessity in order to save running up and
down stairs. In this case an opening
into the shoot should be provided on
the first floor also that soiled table lin
en-, etc, may be thus sent down to the
laundry from this floor. Such a de-
vice can be put into house already
built very easily, as only the cutting Of
one or two floors is required, says
Webb Donnell, who describes it in The
Ladies' World.

THE UP TO DATE TRUNK.
Includes the Wardrobe, Bureau,
French Dress and Hat Varieties.

Tie trunk being a very important
item in the comfort of summer journey
ings, some information on the modern
article Is subjoined from Vogue:
To begin with q warning do not
waste your money on a cheap trunk.
1t is not even economical in the long
run and besides, the purchaser has to
put up with its inferior appearance and
a lesser degree of comfort in its use.
In the opinion Of many, the very best
trunk is the wardrobe trunk. The
wardrobe trunk is constructed on the
pendent principle, it being really q
compact, portable clothes closet, stand
ing on end when in use and therefore
taking up the least possible space. All
lifting Of trays and STOPPING over are
done away with, and twice the usual
amount of clothing can be carried with
out any crumpiing worth mentioning.
Trunks for men carry ut least doz-
en- suits of clothes, besides hats, tot
let articles, shirts underclothing and
shoes, each separately to be reached
without disturbing any other article of
apparel
Less costly, but highly to be COM
mended, although naturally not so su-
perlatively convenient, is French
dress trunk constructed on the rather
novel plan Of replacing the deep bot
tom receptacle with four dress trays,
resting one on the other. These are
augmented with an upper tray divided
into four small compartments for wells,
hnp 1lyn tnfc lib dc nd
articles, a large and deep compartment
for hats and square, double partition
for underwear or what you will. The
dress trays have an advantage over
the old fashioned method, as they can
be packed separately and dropped into
the trunk without the necessity Of tire
some STOPPING. They are fitted with
layers of webbing on either end, to
which the bands and bottoms of the
skirts are to be pinned, and there are
three sets of tapes tying over the top
to secure them in place and prevent the
costumes jolting or Earring. The length
is 40 inches and the height 20 inches.
This model can be had for from $25
upward.
Another popular article Is the bureau
trunk, which opens from the front and
is the counterpart Of its namesake.
There are natural bronze handles, four
skirt drawers and twO~for bOdices and
undergarments, besides an unusually
deep hat department, under which is a
secret drawer where valuable papers,
money or jewels can be kept with safe
ty. The price is from $50 upward for
a 40 inch length.
Hat boxes-or trunks, as you prefer
to designate them-one Of the comforts
! of the times, may be bought at from Sc
up, they being so planned as to carry
( the daintiest creations Of millinery to
their destination without crumpling.

state paper, wherein her cold sagacity
never took second place, she interrupt
ed the discussion to ask whether the
Due dAnjou, who was Mt one time one
of her suitors, had been told what n
pretty foot she had and how white and
well rounded was her arm? This in

squeamish feminine hesitation as TO

In connection with this last charac-
teristic of cruelty vanity is not at all
unprecedented. Indeed, if one observe
closely one will notice that excessively
vain persons have almost always n
strange inclination toward cruelty.

permitted and indeed commanded in
this respect will hardly bear reading
by us sensitive folk today.-Margaret

Always hang long brooms up by
piece Of string through the top of the
handle.
II scrubbing brushes are stood on
end to dry, they will last much longer.
Soft paper kept in a small bag will
be found useful for many purposes.
Small pieces rolled up and shaken
about in water will clean water bottles
most thoroughly.
Soft paper is excellent for rubbing
plate, and tissue paper will clean and
polish any kind of glass.
Hot vinegar put on a cloth will re-
move spots Of paint from a window.
The vinegar must be very hot.
The backs Of silver brushes can be
kept bright by rubbing with a flannel
dipped in ammonia.
Ordinary tea marks on china may be
readily dissolved by scrubbing with q

afternoon she had just finished dress
ing herself and was about to go out
when the daughter of neighbor
brought her basket Of fine black cher
ries. AS tables and window sill We're
already covered with clothes and other
things Sabina set the basket on chair
which was covered with blue silk stuff
and then went out with her mother for
q walk. Late in the evening she came
back to her room very tired and threw
herself on q chair. But she jumped
quickly up again, with cry Of dismay.
She had seated herself on the basket
of cherries. Her white silk frock was
stained with the Juice Of the ripe fruit.
She was greatly vexed and ell the
more because she knew that If she had
kept her room tidy, as her mother
wished, the cherries would have been
on the table and not on the chair

ing, and q faraway whistle came to
Tlmmys ears, but meant nothing to
him, for there were no railroads near
the village at home, and he was not
much used to them, so he kept on.
There was a short curve beyond the
road, and just as the little cart joggled
over the track the engine gave a tre-
mendous whistle and swept around the
bend Jimmy and Jimmy both jumped
then, and the pony sprang ahead so
suddenly that the cart overturned, and
Jimmy landed head first in some BUSH
es, more frightened than hurt, although
well scratched. Jimmy did not at
tempt to run.
Before either of them came to his
senses the train was far out of sight,
and Jimmy was too much bewildered
by his sudden Weakening in so uneX-
pectcd a position as standing on his
head in blackberry bush to tell where
he was. He sat up and looked about
for Jimmy.
When he realized his narrow escape,
he was much inclined to cry and for
got entirely what a big boy he was.
Jimmy climbed back into the cart
and gathered up the reins. The little
team crossed the railroad again and
followed the lonely road back to the
junction where the wrong path had
been taken. The sun had begun to set,
and there were deep shadows on either
hand. Two miles more were TO be
Travelled STILL and it was past supper
time when the tired pair turned into
the driveway.
Jimmy told his story when they all
came out to meet him. His shoulder
was lame and his clothes were torn
from his fall among the bushes, and
mamma could hardly believe the dan
ger was all over.
Papa said, Lets be thankful it's no
worse" But the postmaster said,
"NIight know that boy would come out
all right!'-A. C. T. in Youths Com

The late Rev. r. S. Storrs was q very
hard man to interview, for he resented
the inquisitiveness of the press and was
icy to its agents.

course of the evening touched his arm
and whispered: Doctor, I'm from the

"this way, this way" And, taking the
young mans arm, he escorted him to
the front door and put him out.

bow Of ribbon or fall Of lace at the
back Of the hat, filling in the space
which otherwise would make an ugly
line. The brims droop somewhat. Of
course, but the bow is necessary to
soften the effect.
The Louis XIV period in dress is
more and more In evidence all the time.
Powered effects, generally in silks,
muslins and trimmings, are convincing
proof that this one page of time has
been turned back for inspiration. Bro
caded silk insertions and motifs are set
into lace gowns, and striped and plain
muslins are trimmed with medallions
designs of lace.
All the dressy gowns are long and
very fluffy, with gauzy rufiles around
the feet. The one idea in the finish at
the hem is to give as much of the d.
aphanous effect as possible, and we
see a series of chiffon rufiles around
the hem Of foulard gown.
A new and very smart idea in trim
ming is the use of taffeta bands on
white batiste. They may be straight
or waved on the edges and dotted over
with French dots of embroidered polka
dots. The silk may be white or some
pale color, as you fancy, but in either
case the effect is stunning.
This idea Of using silk on thin mus
lin is seen again in satin ribbon two
inches wide on white organdie. Three
rows Of this, with spaces between, are
sewed around the skirt, and the yoke
is of alternate bands of ribbon and lace
insertion, with tiny bows at the end OF
each band

QUEEN ELlZABETH'S FAULTS
She Was Very Vain and Unfortunately
Fond of Fine Dress.

she was very vain ana InOrdinately
Fond of Fine Dress.
Yet Elizabeth was never really sue
cessful with her wardrobe as a more
feminine woman might have been. Her
dresses Were never beautiful. only lu-
dicrously and most appropriately
magnificent-laden with jewels, weight
ed down with cloth Of gold, stiff with
silver embroidery and SO heavy that
even her big, powerful frame must,
without supporting vanity, have felt
the fatigue of carrying them about.
Elizabeth was certainly vain, but she
cannot claim femininity merely on that
account, for vanity is by no means an
exclusively feminine Characteristic.
There are perhaps more vain women
than vain men because women have
more leisure and their costumes afford
greater opportunities for vanity than
the strangely hideous clothing which
custom has arranged for men, but no
thoughtful feminine) observer can
doubt that vain man is vainer than a
vain woman.
Elizabeth's hands were her especial
pride, and, judging from her portraits,
they were certainly beautiful, They
were laden with Jewels, and it was her
habit in public TO pull her rings off
with absent artlessness and push them
on again, moving those white hands
about in the most obvious way. Once,

other Smart Notions.

A very noticeable feature Of summer
dress is the simplicity Of color, or, rath-
er, the predominating use Of neutral
colors in delicate shades Iof gray and
beige, besides every possible tint Of
white. Even the foulards are delicate
in coloring and are toned down still
more by the use of stitched bands of
cloth or taffeta in the predominating
color of the silk.
In all the summer gowns, whether
they are of silk muslin or linen, the
collar bands and the chemisettes are as
transparent as it is possible to make
them and have them keep in place at
all. Stiff neck fiXings of any sort are
entirely out of it this season, and many
gowns have no choker collar at all, be-
ing cut out just below the collar line
in round neck, a mode so becoming
to the exceptional style of beauty and
so unbecoming to the average woman.
However this is an inevitable mode
