with white satin inserted with shaped

beautiful embroideries. A set like the

You win notice that the turban has a
crown of ermine, and for sole trimming
a pretty ostrich feather tip drooping
over the ear.
I am going to have another black
broadcloth tailor made this year. and
this in spite Of the fact that there are
so many velvets worn. AS matter of
fact, black broadcloth is always smart
for morning, afternoon or even for in
formal evening wear. You can go to
the theater and sit a couple of hours in
your black broadcloth skirt, and it will
not look any the worse for the expert

TO CLEAN EMBROIDERY.

To clean embroidery without injury
to the wash silk the article should be
immersed in warm suds made of pure
unscented soap. Add a teaspoonful of
powdered bOrax and rinse the cloth up
and down in the suds, but do not rub it
When it is clean, rinse IL in a series of
clear waters until the water is not at
all clouded. Then, without wringing.
squeeze as much water as possible out
of the linen.
Lay the piece in a clean soft cloth.
making it as smooth as possible, and
wrap both together Remove it in a
few minutes and dry quickly near q
fire or. still better, in the air. but do not
put it in the sun.
1t is well to change the position Of
the drying linen constantly so that the
possibility Of the colors running may
be prevented. Let it dry thoroughly be-
fore pressing.
When perfectly dry. lay the embroid-
cry face downward on a smooth, fine
sheet and carefully draw the edges into
place. Dampen the linen in sections
with a fine sponge. taking care not to
wet the silk. This must be done with a
sponge because the linen win at once
take up the moisture, while the silk will
not, if the sponge is moved quickly
enough.
Now pass a hot iron over the cloth in
the direction of the grain Of the mate
rial. moving the linen on the sheet until
the entire surface has been pressed
The iron should be hot and should
be moved very quickly so that the silk
will not be crushed. as it would by a
slow process with an iron of medium
heat.
Press all the hens from the right side,
as they do not iron prettily from the
wrong side.
Put the fringe in order with a comb
and trim It with sharp scissors.

need OF reform at the so called top OF
society rather more than at the so
called bottom. Those who would help
the poor, the ignorant and the undevel-

help humanity reformers must be one
with humanity. dwell with it and show
how much betterits life can be lived even

of the Nineteenth ward, Chicago. This
