Moths in the Carpets.

1t is of special Importance to see
that there are no moths in your car
pets before they are put away in the
spring, and also before they are re-
laid in the fall. Should there be any
doubt about it, lay a wet towel over
the suspected place, cover it with a
piece of heavy paper, press with hot
iron, and the steam will effectually
destroy any eggs, larva or insects that
have escaped notice After the carpet
is thoroughly cleaned and renovated
roll and wrap in tight cover. When
1t is to be put down again brush the
edges of the floor with turpentine or
coal oil, being sure to get in all the
cracks. Sprinkle salt plentifully over
the face of the carpet next to the
Washboards and on any edges that are
to be turned under. From experience
1t has been found that salt effectually
prevents the carpet from being eaten
by moths, buffalo bugs or any such
"varmints." 1t has no odor, does not
discolor, is easily applied and is an
excellent preventive.

Fancy photograph holders may be
made of carved wood or of pasteboard
covered with embroidered pieces of
linen. They are sometimes made of
watercolor paper painted and mounted
on heavy foundation of wood or
cardboard. Fancy silk or cretonne
covers are easy to make, ribbon bow
at each end of the holder serving to
ornament them. These holders con-
sist of a back and front glued or
sewed together below, so that the pho
tographs may be inserted in the open
space above. The edges are usually
cut in symmetrically curved lines or
scallops.

Even in the ordinarily well man.
aged household, according to a ply
sician, there is little idea of the per-
feet cleanliness that is required in
the sick room. Old furniture, old pa
per on the walls, old carpets are
sources of impurity and consequently
dangerous to a marked degree Some
times the wall paper, while fresh and
new in itself, has been put on over
an old layer, thus providing an eco
nomical resort for germs. Old carpets
are cleaned superficially with a broom,
which at the same time scatters the
dust through the air to settle on the
furniture and pictures and to be watt
ed OFF into the air again by means of
the feather duster. Old upholstered
easy chairs or couches are bound to
encourage disease, as is ANYTHING
which provides lurking place for
dust Descending to the kitchen. look
well to the state of your dish rags.
These should be washed and dried IN
the open air as reigiously as if they
were napkins or table cloths. A dish
rag or cloth that does service day af-
ter day and is simply rinsed out after
dish washing and hung up in the
house till after the next meal is not
safe. The good housekeeper rotates
the dish cloths as well as the drying
towels.-New York Sun.

Don't let the little ones sleep in cot
ton or linen night garments in win
ter. If you can't afford flannel make
them some fannelette sleeping suits
or night gowns. II you do this, have
warm, light clothing on the beds and
keep the windows open, whatever the
weather. You will find that the little
ones will very seldom be troubled by
colds or coughs. A screen between the
bed and window will prevent all dan
ger from draft, but remember there
is more draft from slightly opened
window than from one wide open. so
don't be satisfied to have it open only
a tiny chink.

As foreign nations become acquaint-

its OF the American mule his popular
ity increases. In 1899 (fscal Year, the
total value Of American mules ex-
ported to foreign countries was $780,
600. In the fiscal year Of 1900 it was
$3.919O00, and as the American mule
becomes better known ne gets to be
more in demand, and a larger foreign
trade in American mules seems 20 be
already foreshadowed.

Glace kid, buttoned, gloves are the
correct ones for church. with two or
four buttons, and of white or a light
tan. If tan heavier kid is used, and
one or two buttons are sufficient; in
fact, regular hsavy walking glove is
the smartest. Many women always
cling to Suede glove of the mousque-
taire style with two buttons only.
These are Of lighter shade of color
than the gown or of black. OF course
this does not refer to a red, or
green, or blue gown-simply to the
brown or gray. A white Suede glove
is absolutely inappropriate, however.
So much depends upon the lining of
the muff as to what gloves can be
worn from a practical point of view
that it is as we'll to buy one with refer
ence to the other. The present fashion
Of the white lining or the fur lining
for the very rich fur muffs makes it
possible to wear white or light gloves,
whereas the dark Innings so soon soil
the gloves that it is generally silly to
follow slavishly the fashion of wearing
white gloves, especially if economy
has to be consulted. AS the church
costume is emphatically a walking
costume, heavy walking boots or
boots of kid and patent leather are
correct. The fancy dress boot or shoe
is not then sensible or in good taste.

The college life Of American girls
today is all and more than its best
friends hoped for it in the days when
the higher education of women was
still experimental. The girls who are
now in Barnard, Vassar, Bryn Mawr,
Radcliffe or Wellesley were in their
cradles then. They have grown up
since the days Of alarm that college
life would ruin the health and detract
from the womanliness OF women.
Modern college girls have been
reared in good health, and in the spir-
it of outdoor life; bicycling walking,
swimming, tennis, rowing, basketball
and gymnasium exercises are becom-
ing more and more integral parts of
their lives. They have never been called
"tomboys," as outdoor girls used to
be. More of them dance than former
ly; girls from evangelical households
also are allowed to dance by thors-
ands nowadays, and this, too is to
their advantage. College girls may
now spend their four years of study
with increasing good health and
strength, and also with increase of So
cial grace and knowledge.
1t is found by a comparison of GUS
toms in half a dozen of our leading
colleges for women that even the haz-
ing which is given the freshman is of
sort to straighten out any chance
unsocial kinks they may have, and
teach them the amenities of inter
course. This has been we'll described
as intellectual hazing," since it is
rather by stings of words than more
paipable means that correction is ad-
ministered. Th clubs and societies in
the womens colleges all tend to fit a
girl for the larger life of society when
she leaves college, and in most of
them there is much more dancing than
would once have been thought aca-
demic. This is especially the case with
the "co-eds' in universities for men.
The overwhelming courtesy of SEN
iors, Juniors and sophomores to fresh
men in more than one Of the women's
colleges is a curious ordeal for shy
girl. She is made to feel at once by
many attentions that she belongs to
an important body social, and that
only by swift rising to meet the de-
mands upon her can she show her
worthlness to enter into the life of
the community. There are times when
the spirit of class contest wakes warm
in an interclass game of basketball or
an interclass boat race. But in gen
eral the college spirit and the spirit
CT personal friendliness and good will
are so strong that rivalry is consist.
entity soortsmanlikc.
In the same spirit as the gymnn-
sium exercises the intellectual gym
nastics are carried on. Girls make
high jumps or swift rushes and 70
through ground and lofty tumbling
both mental and physical, with a sim
plicity, an insouciance, an utter all
sence of conceit nowadays; this was
not quite true of the pioneers in the
higher education for women. Life
was more strenuous for them. The
new girl thinks little or nothing OF
competition with men-a topic that
occupied the thoughts of her forbears
her place is made for her in the COL
leGe world as completely as it was in
the high school. She fills it with grace
