London Plaxs Cnnia.

Inc city of London has made arrange
ments 10 teach it's school girls domes-
nc economy. There are thirteen dones-
nc economy schools, among which pu-
pills are distributed by the technical in
structlon board of the county council
Inc appointments are made upon rec
ommendation of the head teachers, from
the girls who are about to leave the ele-
mentary schools
The course includes instruction in
heedleWork the preparation Of food ana
al the departments of homework. The
girls who are selected to enjoy it's advan-
tages cook their own dinners. wash their
own clothes and make their own CLOTH
ing Tor a period of six months. At the
ehd OF that time a six months appren-
uceship in dressmaking completes the
training.
Three hundred of these scholarships are
available. The girls to receive them must
be not less than fourteen years of age
and must have passed the seventh stand
ard in reading, writing and arithmetic
InlS requirement assures mental equip
ment which will enable them to intelii-
gently apply the principles of domestic
economy.
The London county council. in taking
TINS step at the public expense, was &C
tuated by two purposes, to provide
class OF trained domestic servants, whose
services should be available to the COM
munlty, and to provide for the future
Worklngmen wives who should be edu-
Gated in the duties of housekeeping
a knowledge Of how to purchase the
most nutritious food, and how to prepare
1t SO that it snail be both palatable and
attractive, will enable a wife to make
her huS bands earnings go further. One
result will be happier homes, with more
OF modern comforts and even, perhaps,
luXurieS.
Another result which sociologists fore-
see will be the lessening of what tenn
perance reformers call the evils Of the
drink traffic. Scientists definitely affirm
that Well-cooked food reduces the crav-
ing for stimulants

SOME FASHION NOTES.

The colonial tie is to be the dress shoe
for women this spring. 1t is an inita-
ton of the shoe worn by women in the
Revolutionary period, and follows closely
the original type. "A conspicuous feature
is the high f1aring leather tongue, which
is lined with leather and forms the back
ground for large buckle.
Individual preference may be exercis-
ed in the selection of this ornament, and
many beautiful designs are shown in
Guiding imitation rhinestones, 0Hneralds
and buckles of gold, silver and brass.
Some are arranged. on a large bow to dis
play better the jewels.
The latest novelty In skirt trimmings
is to border the edge with a band of fur,
over which falls a slightly gathered fin
ish Of lace in cream or saffron color. A
touch of this lace and fur Is also used
as the trimming of the bodice.
Ribbons Of soft texture which lend
themselves to all the shapes for MILL
merry and garniture for robes are now
made in fancy effects, and new use
for those with black or white contrast
ing dots is to trim chiffon boas.
For the extra wide black boas full
blown roses of black satin or silk have
the appearance of large roseattes. These
are placed around the collar two or three
inches apart, and help to hold in place

4 South Sea WOOin6

We had been lying off the island for a
week, but the breakers and the strong
current had made it impossible to land
one morning we crept in close to the
reef and saw that we had waited to
some purpose, for the shreds were full
and hundreds of sacks of copra were
stacked on the beach.
Long Karl, the dealer, a tall, spare
figure in pyjamas came down to the
beach, waved his hand, then went back
and. sat down on a copra sack.
In the afternoon we saw him parleying
with native, who presently waived out
to he reef and made signs to us to come
Learer ...
We went as close as we dared, and he
dashed through the breakers and swan
out to us, as only a Gilbert Islander can
swim.

The letter, which had been wrapped

''There are a number of good-looking
women from Nukunan here, and 1 can
get one OF them for a wife if l look
sharp"
We sent him a bottle of rum and saw
him wade over to the reef, with several
natives, to receive it. Then he returned
to his house, dismissed his followers and

VIOLETS AFFECT THE VOICE.


Many professional singers have nor
ror OF the violet, because its odor is
supposed TO exert a baneful effect upon
the voice. The baritone Faure who has
written a book. upon the hygienic of the
human voice, calls the violet the singers
greatest enemy, though he admits that
tobacco and alcohol are about as bad.
Cabanes, celebrated French physician,
takes the same view of the shrinking
violet, and says, "At a soiree in Paris
MARIE Sasse, the celebrated singer, re-
celved bunch of Parma violets which
had been sprinkled with a concentrated
extract Of the same flower. She was
fond of violets and inhaled the perfume
eagerly. Presently she tried to sing and
found her voice entirely gone. Her
vocal chords were, for the time being,
completely paralyzed.' Among other
singers, Nine. Krauss found that the
door Of violets caused her to suffer from
intense hoarseness. Why the odor of
violets has this injurious effect upon the
human voice none of the authorities ex-
pIa1hs, put 1t seems to be a fact that to
the majority of singers the flower is one
that steals away their voice.
