ARTISTIC JEWELS,

Now and then three or five chains
hanging in little festoons between
flowers or bars of ornaments fasten
round the throat, and the pendant is
attached to the lower chain. Other
wise caught together in front with a
little slip button, the fine chain is
connected with the two extreme points
o. the top pendant. Sometimes,
again, having served as support, the
chain will caught up here and there,
hang about the sides of the pendant
and then drop on to the front of the
corsage, giving another excuse for a
brooch ornament to hold it in posi-
ton.
Except when intended as evening
dress decorations brooches in the new
jewelry are quite small and take
few gems in their designing. Scenes,
heads, figures, all make the new mod
els, their special points only claiming
the assistance of jewels such as one

NEATNESS IN GIRLS.

Neatness is a good thing for a girl.
and if She does not learn it when
young she never will. 1t takes great
deal more neatness to make girl
look than it does to make a boy look
passable. Not because a boy, to start
with, is better looking than a girl,
but his clothes are of different sort,
not SO many colors in them, and
people do not expect a boy to look
so pretty as girl, says Woman's
Life. A girl that is not neatly dress
ed is called a sloven and no one
likes to look at her. Her face may
be pretty. and her eyes bright, but ii
there is spot of dirt on her cheek,
and her finger ends are black with
ink. and her shoes are not laced or
buttoned, and her skirt is torn she
cannot be liked. Learn to be neat,
and when you have learned it will
almost take care of itself.

SECRET OF A GOOD FIGURE.

Women who wish to preserve the
slimness and contour of their figures
must begin by learning to stand well.
That is explained to mean the throw
ing forward and upward of the chest.
the flattening of the back, and the
shoulder blades held in their proper
places, and the definite curving in of
the small of the back, thus throwing
the whole weight of the body on the
hips, says Woman's Life.
This, in great measure, preserves
the figure, because it keeps the mus
cles firm and well strung and pre-
vents the sinking down of the flesh
round the waist, so common in women
over thirty, which is perfectly easily
to escape. Another thing to avoid
is a bad habit of going upstairs, as
most women do, bent forward, with
the chest contracted, which. as we'll
as being an indolent. slouching man.
ner of walking, is injurious to the
heart and lungs.

THE BABY'S NAP,

Does baby take his nap in the open
air? If not, then he is missing the
best tonic that nature can give him.
At least, that is the popular theory
at present, and is being put into
practice by leading physicians.
1t is the usual practice to "coddle"
babies by keeping them in warm
rooms, safely protected from any whiff
OF outdoor air, says Home Chat. But
now we are told that this is all wrong.
that the baby should be we'll wrapped
and put in his carriage out of doors
for his nap.
Babies that have been for some
time subjected to this treatment find
1t difficult to sleep we'll in the house;
and one physician, whose own baby
has daily outdoor maps, says, There
is nothing like pure air, and babies
need it even more than grown peo-
ple."

MY LADY'S SHOE BUCKLES.

The CLINT of the shoe buckle is
seen with increasing frequency on
the street these days. A more fanci-
full summer shoe is replacing the long
favored Oxford tie. It's evolution has
been helped by the high heel and the
"dressiness" in footwear that has set
in as a reaction from the exaggerat-
ed common sense effects. A shoe that
is only variation of slipper Is
quite proper for the street now. It
may be of patent leather or of a soft
dull finish. Above the large buckle
OF gilt or steel is 1aring tab which
extends above the instep. These shoes
are made also in white to be worn
in the country with light frocks All
OF the buckles are large and severely
plain in style.-New York Press.

SMART NECK RUCHES.

The new ruches are charming; they
lie fat from the neck to the shoulder.
where all the fullness comes, leaving
the throat free and not interfering
with the low chignon. They have
long full ends and are made of tulle,
dotted net. chiffon. chiefly in white and
black mixed, says the Delineator.
Short feather boas, gray, black or
white have resumed their once wan
ing popularity. Jackets of taffetas
are varied by the insertion of black
lace and made, like all the jackets,
either with belt and ruffie below
1t or with coat tails and a belt in
front only.

FOR YE SUMMER MAID.

The new parasols offered for the
fast approaching sunny season are
very beautiful. Those of perfectly
plain silk, or at the most adorned
with a band of lace, a few tucks, or,
smarter still, with the modish EN-.
broidery, are being carried row at the
beginning of the season.
Much of the attractiveness of this
seasons sunshades is gained from
their unusually ornamental handles.
Some of the most beautiful have
handles of silver or gilt. very much
chased, set with stones. such as coral,
turquoise, pearl or garnet, not mingled
as of yore, but used singly. One very
striking parasol of the new moire
silk, trimmed with bands of black
inserting, has an odd and unusually
long handle of white velvet, covered
with fretwork of steel. Plain, thick
wooden handles are in best taste for
the ordinary everyday parasol of plain
taffeta. Handles of black wood, in.
crusted with ivory and turquoise set
in silver, complete many lovely black
and white sunshades.
AS the season advances the fancier
styles of parasols will appear, those of
chiffon, silk muslin and lace. These
are the only kinds that are adorned
with a fall or flounce surrounding the
edge.
This years styles appear to be all
black, white or extremely light
shades, medium tints being decidedly
in the minority.
A noticeable feature of many of
this summers parasols is that they
are unlined, by reason of which much
weight is saved. Many of them are
composed of diaphanous textile cov-
ering a silk foundation.
The new trimming ideas are full of
variety and elaboration. There are
many new effects in embroidery Lace
parasols are often trimmed with lace
ruffles, the lace being embroidered in
colored flowers. A chiffon ruffle can
be used, and the embroidery appears
on the lace of the parasol itself. Ac-
Gordon pleating is still used for chif-
fon parasols and medallions of black
lace surrounded by ruches of white
is a favorite garniture. Again, these
motifs of black Chantilly are picked
out in silver thread and turquoise
colored beads. Applications of black
taffeta on both white and colored para
soils is recent idea. In laces,
whether for the foundation itself or
for trimming. Chantilly, guipure
and Cluny are the most suitable

WOMEN'S FAVORITE POSE.

A man looked in a photographers
show case and saw twenty-nine pic
lures of young women, twenty-one
of whom were posed with their hands
behind their backs. He passed on
wondering, and came a little later
to another showcase. There were
seventeen young women here and
twelve of these were in the same
attitude; in third case nine Of
the ten young women's photographs
displayed were in the same pose
which he noted twice before.
why" he said to himself. do they
all pose that way nowadays?" And, as
if inanswer to his question. young
girl who stood beside him looking in
the case, said to her companion:
at is very wise to be photographed
with your hands behind your back. for
this pose makes your shoulders ap-
pear broad, your chest deep and your
waist supple and slim. Really, it
enhances the beauty of the figure to a
wonderful extent. t.'-Philadelphia Rec.

in Princess. But woe to any other

Ullrich. Il have tried several times

A MANILA RATTRAP,

Have you seen the big snake and
the small boy? Well, they will be
around to see you. 1t Is displeasing
combination, but one whose aims
possess quadruple Qualities-may be
likened to a game of cards-high, low,
jack and the game. The mission Of
the boy and snake is high-the con-
servatism Of the public health; the
calling low-the catching of rats-the
boys name Is Jack-and the game?
Well, it is both rodents and bounty.
The manner In which the boy.
through the snakes exertions, comes
in possession of the rat and bounty
is unique. The boy, with the reptile
on his arm and gunnysack in hand,
enters the court of a residence. and
usually, after much palaver in cor
rupt language, secures permission to
begin the crusade. With vigilant and
keen eye he inspects the premises. In
this inspection he displays training
the most systematic and acute: the
gamin has discovered rat hole quick
er than seminude savage on the fir
ing line, hot in escape from American
occupation and American soldiery.
But the finding by Jack of one hole,
while it pleases. doesn't satisfy his
ambition; he wants to find two-one
of entrance, the other egress. When
he has located to his satisfaction the
two holes he uncoils the repulsive
creature from his arm, and, planting
both feet upon it, brings forth from
hidden recess of trousers a small net,
the meshes Of which are very fine.
While the serpent wriggles and twists
and darts forth from muzzle its forked
tongue, Jack, by clever dexterity,
places the net over the reptiles head
and securely fastens it with sinew.
This done, the snake resumes its
arm hold and is conveyed to one of
the holes. The boy squats and forces
the head of the creature into the hole.
The snake, by some unknown force
instinct OF something else-is GER
tainly appraised of what it's master
wants, for its body slowly enters the
hole and disappears. The small, en-
Drowned boy runs to the other hole,
places the sack over it and awaits the
result, with an anxious and what-will-
the-harvest-be look on his counter
ance.
Sometimes the boys face glows with
triumph, for number of
rats scamper into the bag; sometimes
neither rats nor snake appear, and
then the boy feels bad. Nothing re-
mains for him to do but wait. He
does so, and his patience is finally
rewarded by the appearance of the
snake, whose hunt has been without
quarry.
The boy is so small and the snake
so big that he has grown. lopsided in
carrying it about-for it is always
coiled on the right arm.-Manila Vol
