that Mr.. Watson has not made any at

by Mr.. Watson as his most 1mpoftah1
and enduring work. and his attempt TO
reconcile modern liberalism with the alb
solution Of divine right is looked upon
MS his fatal mistake. So long as Napo-
leon was the organizer of liberalism as

REVIVAL OF THE BRACELET.

Bracelets are said to be surely coming

who should know still say that as far as
they are concerned there are only the
rumors and nothing more But with the
bracelets it is a different matter.
They are flexible these bracelets. and
some of them are truly charming. Many
of them have a heavy back, a large
ornamental piece Of gold tapering down
to narrow band, which encircles the
wrist One of these bracelets is Of the
warm, Burmah gold. and in the center
of the hand-carved designs of which it is
formed is a beautiful large opal with
exquisite warm lights, which blend de-
lightfully with the rose culors in the gold

three small oval opals which hang as
pendants from the lower part Of the
bracelet below the larger opal.

Value of Tissue Paper.

The tissue paper in which parcels are
rolled up should never be crumpled and
thrown away, but carefully smoothed
out. rolled up and laid away in some
drawer or handy place where you know
where to find it when you want a nice
soft, clean piece of paper.
A few drops of eau de cologne on a
soft pad of tissue paper VIII give a bril-
liant polish to mirrors. the glass of pic
lures and crystal. The pad of tissue
paper without the eau de colone is also
used for polishingg steel rubbing grease
stains off CRATES or furniture, polishing
silver and innumerable oIner things
For packing glass, ornaments and fine
china that are not in daily use a roll
of soft tissue paper is simply invaluable.
All outstanding ends Of ribbons, os-
preT& and wings on millinery should have
a wisp of tissue paper sted round
them TO prevent crushings, and in the
same way ribbon loops should be kept
in position by small pad of paper The
sleeves of dresses and blouses are the
better for paper stuffing, and a sheet
of paper should be placed between every
fold to prevent the material marking.
Silk handkerchiefs, muff1ers, ribbons.
lace, ETC., should be ironed between a
layer of tissue paper. Steel buckles and
fancy hatp ms of every kind may be
cleaned with the homely polisher-tissue
paper

is what a prominent jeweler says But
if you decide that gloves are a necessi-

The reason for this warning is that
the constant friction of the gloves wears
