The Care of Toilet Articles.

In these days of luxurious toilet fit
tings one is often surprised to see the
carelessness with which they are treat
ed. Brushes. in particular suffer from
lack of care, although SO many are
needed for various purposes.
Hairbrushes, toothbrushes, nail and
hat brushes are SO generally mounted
in silver or silver and ebony that they
require good deal of attention, as tar
nished mountings are as bad as shabby
hnery, says the New York Tribune.
Silver backs of brushes, if rubbed
daily with a chamois leather, will sell
dom need a regular cleaning.
Occasionally moisten little whiting
with alcohol and brush the silver with
this. Brush out again and polish with
a soft channels.
The backs and handles of ebony
brushes should be rubbed over with a
little boiled linseed oil after washing
and then rubbed with soft buster till
every vestige of oil is removed. Special
care is needed in cleaning silver initials
on these, and only very slightly mois-
tened whiting should be used or it is
apt to leave a white mark on the wood.
which is extremely difficult to remove.
In brushing the whiting off after
cleaning be careful not to scratch the
ebony for once scratched it is spoiled.
Ordinary wooden back brushes can be
treated with linseed oil in the same way
as ebony.
Tooth and nail brushes should always
stand in such a position that all water
can drain from them.
Hairbrushes should be washed once a
week, and are soon spoiled unless pro-
perly cleansed. The best way is to put
a tablespoonful of ammonia in a quart
of water as hot as can be borne COM
fortabIy by the hand. The brush should
be freed from hairs and dipped. bristles
downward, in and out of the water un-
til clean It should be rinsed by dip
ping in cold water in the same way.
Shake we'll, wipe the back and handle
carefully, and put on a window sill TO
dry in the open air. The back should
not be allowed to become damp If it
can be avoided. Soap should not be
used for washing, as it makes the bris-
ties soft.

bodices and form shoulder straps.
Large windmill bowls of black velvet,
with diamonds in the center, figure on
the front of bodices and sometimes on
the points of the shoulders.
For the Louis XIV coats, which have
met with special favor for day and eve
ming wear, lowered and striped silks
answered best.
Moire antique and gros grain silk are
on the fashionable list again, and
wraps. gowns, separate skirts and
waists are made from these much priced
silks a generation and more ago.
The spring dress shoe, we are told, is
to be the colonial toe, modelled on the
shoe worn by women in revolutionary
days. The chief feature is the high far
ing leather tongue, ornamented with a
buckle, which may be as simple or
ornate as the wearer desires.

To Attract Birds.
A KENosHA CLUB TRIES J


An experiment is being tried by the
Womans club of Kenosha, Wis, which
will secure the attention of all bird-loverS.
This is attempt to attract song birds
to Kenosha, an idea which followed the
preSenta ton of a paper read before the
club recently by Miss Edna F'arr on The
Birds of Wisconsin, Miss Farr who is
a Kenosha girl recently returned, after
two years of study in Paris and Germany,

of the measures for the protection of birds
that exist in France. The interest aroused
by this paper resulted in an attempt to
use, says the New York World. The plan
for attracting the birds, practiced by
the ladies of the city, is simple. Little
cups well filled with food are placed in the
dooryards of the houses where they
be found by the birds. Near the cup filled
with food is placed another little vessel
filled with clear water designed for the
birds bath. Since the plan was adopted
by the club members. many of these little
and the increase in the number of birds is
already noticeable. The Kenosha club has
a knack of succeeding in its undertakings
and enjoys high reputation, gained during
the ten years of its existence. for pioneer
work. 1t was the first club in the state to
offer help in securing travelling libraries
for the isolated counties; it was the first
GERS to secure cleanliness of cities, and it
was the first Wisconsin club to adopt the
idea of sending boxes of Christmas pres
ents to the American soldiers in the Philip
pines. Mrs. Harriet r. Redeker is the
present head of the club.

A Comparison of Vanity.

In the matter of couture says the
Woman's Home Companion, in an ar
ticle on Fijian marriages, the men bear
off the palm. A Fiji maid always has
her hair cut short at the time of her
wedding, but the groom, if at all up in
the fashionable world, after covering
his frizzled black hair with qufcklime,
and by this means bleaching it until 1t
is graduated from deep auburn to gold
en- yellow at the points, has it combed
out to it's full length-the longer the
better-until it surrounds his face like
a much exaggerated halo 1t is also
quite in order for this dusky gallant to
decorate his woolly mop of hair with
starry clusters of jasmine or vivid scar

is a popinjay loving to smirk in the

recommendation to the human ladybird
to brood nor an approval of the man
who smriks with self-conscious pride.

A group of two or three dozen appli
cants awaited the merchant the next
day in his office. One at time they
were admitted. and to each in turn the
merchant said:
Take this book and read on without
pause or break until tell you to stop.
The boy would take the volume and
begin to read. The merchant. after a
moment. would rise with sharp ex-
clamation and drop heavy paperweight
on the floor This. usually, would ex-
cite the curiosity of the reader. who
would pause and raise his eyes from the
text to see what was going on. But If
he refrained from doing this. if he kept
up continuous flow of reading. the
merchant would put him to another test
by taking puppy dog from closet an.l
beginning to romp with it.
All the boys but one fell before the
test of the puppy dog. Thep stopped
reading. they looked on at the romp
with smiles, and some of them even
went so far as to say:

Those who failed like this were hidden
