Art of Piano Draping.

An excellent way for screening the
unsightliness of the back Of an up.
right piano when turned away from
the wall, as all pianos of that design
should be, to improve the tone and
prevent singers facing the wall, is
one in which a three paneled screen
is hung on rod attached to the back
OF the piano at the top.
The screen is made of three panels
CT black satin embroidered in gold
thread after the style of Japanese
screens, the panels being laced to-
gether with gold cord drawn through
small brass rings sewed at intervals
Of two inches on the edge of the satin,
ending in gold tassels at the bottom.
The whole thing is then edged with a
heavy black silk or gold cord. The
effect IS uncommon and adds much to
the furnishing of a drawing room or
music room, especially where the room
admits of the piano being placed at
one end, with the keyboard facing the
wall.
Other material may be used, al
ways selecting something of simple
decorative pattern or one to match
the other hangings of the room. In
Paris draperies are made especially
for this purpose, but there is danger
of having them too close and heavy,
thus deadening the tone of the instru-
ment.-Washington Star.

I A Japanese woman of rank has come

IS rather odd that women in the Far
East should wish to copy our modes,
just as the Western women are COM
ling to the conclusion that the Japan
ese have solved the problem of truly
artistic and comfortable female habili-
ments 1t is pity for the almond
eyed beauties of the Flowery Kingdom
to vulgarize themselves by wearing
Partisan clothes. Can no one stop the
sacrilege, for sacrilege it really seems
to be, by convincing the court women

mistake of their lives if they should
allow their beautiful and picturesque
national costume to go out of exist
ence?-New York Tribune.

kind are, as rule, somewhat full
round the hem, so that the silk
foundation will have to be in seven
breadths-this is, front, two side
pieces each side and two backs, and,
whatever the length of front may be,
the center of back seam must measure
five inches longer, or if it is to be of
cotton six widths will be sufficient.

Making susarplums for a Living.

A certain New York confectioner
used to run free cooking class in
connection with his candy shop and
catering business. The cooking class
was in reality a clever way to adver-
tise his chocolate. The principal
items Of the cookery lessons were
chocolate creams, chocolate cakes and
chocolate to drink. Of course, all
these things were evolved from the
confectioner's own, unsurpassed choc
olate, and its name and it's superiority
were dinned into the ears of the pupils
of the cooking class until they finally
left in despair. The dissolution of the
school followed. Nevertheless the
popularity it achieved. in spite of its
limitations and drawbacks, showed
how prosperous such school might
be if properly run. In London there
is flourishing confectionery estab-
lishment run entirely by women, and
school for would-be confectioners.
is run in connection with the ordinary
business. The students meet in a
bright, clean kitchen, equipped with
copper saucepans, marble slabs and
porcelain2 pipkins. They wear big
aprons and white mob-caps and their
sleeves are rolled up to the elbows.
Some OF these pupils are ambitious to
become managers of similar establish
ments of their own. The concern in
question is carried on in connection
with a restaurant and tea room, and
since tea rooms are often managed
by women, pupils from such estab-
lishments are coming in increasing
numbers to this confectionery school.
One course, in which only two pupils
can be taken at time, includes the
making of cakes, sweets, ices, book
keeping and shop management. All
the latest inventions of the confec.
toners art are mastered by these
women as readily as they appear, for
they find it necessary in this, as in
every feld Of work, to keep abreast
of the times.-New York Commercial
Advertiser.
