THE HoUSEWORKER'S HANDS.
with Comparatively Little Care They Can Re Kept Soft nnd
 White. ssf f4

"Housework is rather hard on the hands. but there are some precau- tions which. if taken, will add great ly to the comfort of the worker and the appearance of the hands," writes Maria Parloa, in Ladies' Home Jour nal. Among the things which rough en and blacken the hands the most important are dust, soap, fruit, vegetables, and neglect to proper- ly dry the hands. Wash all veg etables before paring When the hands are stained by fruit or vege- tables be sure to remove the stains before the hands come in contact with soap or soapy water. Remove the stains with an acid. such as lem on, vinegar or sour milk. then wash in clear water. When using soap and water for any purpose be sure to rinse off all the soap before wiping the hands. Always wipe the hands perfectly dry. Do not change soaps if you can avoid it. and always use a good soap When sweeping and dusting wear loose-fitting gloves. Have a pair of rubber gloves for use when it is necessary to have tha hands in water a great deal Grease spells rubber, therefore the gloves must be washed perfectly clean as soon as the work is finished. A little bran and milk or vinegar will make the hands clean and smooth after dish washing or any other work that roughens them. With a little pi'ac- tice one can wash dishes as well and as quickly with a dish mop as with a cloth and the hands. There should be two mops, one for the tableware and one for the cooking dishes. For washing floors have self-wringing mop. To soften and whiten the hands use some sort of cream on them at night, then powder them with corn starch and put them in loose gloves kept for this purpose

That there will be a race meet at Little Rock is an assured fat. as there are at present enough thorough. oreds at Clinton Park to give a meet 'ng' while great many more will be sent there from Memphis and New Or leans. The three stakes have filled well and some very high class contests are sure to be witnessed. All the horses are in good health and ready to race. Miss Bennett is locking hand. some, and is as speedy as ever. while Laureate is still to be relied on. al. though now in his eleventh year Dick Burgess, Mir. Bennett's Derby hope, is the finest looking three-year-old at the track, and has wintered well. R. R. Rices & Co.'s eighteen head are do- ing all that Trainer Burrows asks. and the distinguished, Arkansan is sure to be in evidence when the red flag falls which will inaugurate the hnest' meet yet given at Clinton Park. The Conqueror is doing some great stunts and is credited with the fastest mile so far, 1 AS over a very slow track, while Obio and Isobel of George Longs stable, are next with some fine trials. All the owners are hopeful. and expect to annex some of the rich stakes and purses, which, by the way. are much larger than at any other time. Frank Leigh's horses are all well seasoned, having been raced all winter at New Orleans. He is giving them little rest before the season opens, and they will surely be heard from. At no time were there so many really good horses as are now on the grounds, and, very high class meet. ing is sure to result The railroad companies have reduced the fare to Little Rock one-half on all roads. and large attendance is looked for by the management. who have done so much to foster the sport in this ideal resort. Branch Martin. the local turfman, is secretly pleased with a very handsome black colt he owns. which, if MT. Martin can be relied on for veracity, is the fastest equine ever seen here The test is not far dis tant, and we hope MT. Martin will not be disappointed. E

c0QUETTISH COFFEE JACKETS.
some Very Pretty Negiigces That Are Adapted for Morning Wear.


 Nc woman who has been guest at any one of the great country houses glorifying the face of our noble land will fail to appreciate the charms and usefulness of the coffee jacket. IL has no relation to the historic and debata- ble tea gown, because it is worn at a wholly different function from that at which the tea robe properly makes its appearance. say the Washington Star.
 In the morning at country houses 1t Is the commendable custom to send to the rooms of the guests silver trays set with small, individual silver coffee equipages. A slice or two of toast. a dry biscuit and an orange accompa nies. as rule. each tray, and as the maid brings in the little spread the guest arrays herself in very fetching and fanciful silk petticoat, a pair of quilted satin lounging shoes and coffee jacket of gay material and gracious pattern. Ii Is the sociable custom. moreover. in countyy houses for the smaI.tlv iacket- ed coffee drinkers to gather. with their trays and gossip. in some cozy boudoir. and because of this custom the jackets of the coffee lovers have grown in style and splendor.
 These garments are ordinarily we'll open in the throat. but lopg-slee and easy of fit, Upon these general lines the taste of the individual jacket wearer plays infinite variations. Three instructive examples are given. The first is pretty belted jacket of pale yellow satin. surfaced foulard. adorned with a shoulder band and cincture of golden brown panne ribbon. which in turn is held in place by big buttons of paste topaz. Mechln lace and vel low chiffon are the other materials used. A worthy companion to this is the flowing jacket of pastel pink sib- erty satin. garnished with yoke and sleeves and broad revers of imitation tea-tinted Irish lace. X broad satin ribbon of a tint that exactly matches the lace passes under the revers and knots in front.
 Of very plant silk warp French fam mel. lichen gray in color the third gar ment is constructed. InsiGe q lining of baby blue Florentine silk is used. and uneersleeves and jabot of coarse gray Malta lace form it's simple and ef-l fectiye decoration. For next summer the originators of delicate confections are making soft cream batiste coffee jackets, frilled elaborately with valen- ciennes edging: and cooler still will be the negligees of glace china silk. but tonholed in scallops along the edges and completed with aundersleeves of tucked white silk muslin.
