TO PUT ON NEW GLOVES.

The length of life enjoyed by a glove depends very largely upon the method employed in putting the glove on the wearer's hand for the first time.
 If this is done properly. there will be no difficulty on other occasions.
 Cheap gloves will sometimes split at the first or second wearing, and it not infrequently happens that an expensive one will do the same
 It requires two people to put on a glove properly. When the glove is butt toned up, the second person should poll ish the glove smartly with the flat palm of her hand. This process applied to the fingers and back of the glove will hold it to the shape of the wearer's hand.
 It is advisable to use a hook when buttoning a glove, as the violent strug- gles to make hole and button meet tend to wear holes in the finger tips. : The manner of taking off a glove also determines whether it is to last long and look we'll.
 Never pull it by the finger tips. This stretches the glove out of shape and makes it difficult to put on again. Peel it off in the proverbial rabbit skin" fashion, turn each finger and thumb right side out and blow gently to infate the glove.
 Glove menders and mending outfit are useful little articles to have, and every girl should provide herself with one. A ripped glove is an abomination.

YY OWE between the sexes has been M the keynote of most plays writ M ten in the past fifty years. This &AAz9 is a modern development. The
 old Greek tragedies, the great dramas even of Shakespeare, have lit tie of lovers frenzies in them. In the Greek tragedies blind fate, or the gods pushed mortals on to tragic end, and this and hate, revenge and ambition were largely the themes for dramatic authors to play upon. In our time love between the sexes, the grand passion, became the motif.
 There are the beginnings now of a reaction from this. There is trend toward something new, higher than any of the old, the recognition Of the spiritual side of human nature. Espe- cially is the tendency to be noted in Minnie Maddern Fiske's latest dramat- ic production, Mary of Magdala."
 "Au human passions have their prop CT place in stage delineations," says Mrs. F'iske. But there is something else, the spiritual clement revelation of loftier emotions emotions above hate, above revenge. This spiritual plane of human nature is reached through suffering and shining and through bitter experiences This side of life has it's place, too, on the dra- matic stage" ..
 It is the side Mrs. F'iske, the temper amental actress, she who can show us human nature in all moods, has chosen to depict in Mary of Magdala-" To Mrs. Fiske herself, with her nobly ripening powers the drama that shows forth this flower of spiritual life, grown and nourished through suffering, IS more interesting than the love play. As she represents it it is more interesting to her audience as well.
 Mary of Magdala" was in course of preparation two years before it was produced. During all that time Mrs. Fiske and her aids were studying stage settings, costumes and the play itself. The lady found that of the period cov- cred by the story scarcely historic trace is left on which the scenic artist and costumer might seize in order to produce a spectacle properly. There is something strange about it too.
 There is ample material for the stage setting and costuming of dramas dealing with old Rome," said Mrs. Fiske, ''but of Jerusalem, it's people and it's customs at the time of the crucifix- ion there is left almost nothing.''
 Was it not said, "Of this temple not one stone shall be left upon another?'
 In her preparation for the part of Mary of Magdala Mrs. F'iske obtained much information from Ernest Renan's Life of Jesus.'' which she studied carefully.
 Beyond most women of the stage to- day, Minnie Maddern Fiske can look the emotions she for the time depicts. With it's eyes that radiate, it's lips and muscles that thrill and vibrate as the strings of a harp, her fine, sensitive face, without word with scarcely gesture on her part, can ring lightning changes along the whole gamut of hu- man emotion.
 Off the. stage this gifted lady is as in- teresting as on. She says: Any great historic play requires two years in preparation. Now for dramatic pro- duction we assemble all the arts, those

of the painter, poet, author and all the rest. The designers of the stage set ting and of the costumes must them selves be artists. Infinite pains, study and expense are put now on the mount ing of plays, and there is no doubt that acting has suffered accordingly. A generation ago theater people used to change the bill every night, and they acted better than we do now The leading lady wore the same dress in act after act. and all dressed in the simplest way
 'Then do you think we ought to go back to the simplicity of the old time? ?" I asked. - . ..
 - !"No. I believe in the elaborate and splendid and perfect stage mounting that Wagner introduced. If Shake speare were alive now, he would advo- cate it. Still, we have no women on the stage today who play great parts, such as Brunhide, Iphigenia and An tigone. Janauschek and Ieistori are al- most the last women who played great parts. Modjeska has had the finest repertory of any woman in the past twenty years.
 'No woman has now the deep, power full organ note voice Janauschek and Ristori had. I do not know whether it is the voice or the method that has changed, but the voice with the organ note in it is never heard on the stage

different parts of the room. On one edge the plain strip must be cut off close to pattern and the other left half an inch wide.
 If the paper is thick, let it lie a little after it is pasted, but if thin put on wall at once.
 Begin by placing the close cut edge of paper at one side of window. Stick firmly at the top, hang straight and press down lightly with a clean cloth. The close cut edge Of next length will cover the half inch left on. first one, making a neat join. In this way go round the room.
 If the ceiling is to be whitewashed or colored, proceed thus: Wash off any stains with a brush and clean water, taking care to move brush in one direc- tion, up and down, not all sorts of ways. When dry, the ceiling is ready for the whitewash or color. Make Whitewash by mixing whiting and wa ter together till quite smooth and thick as cream. Dissolve half an ounce of glue in teacupful of water and stir into whitewash. <se~r .-E
 This size prevents the white or color rubbing off the wall. One teacupful is enough for one gallon of wash.
 Yellow or red ocher stirred into white wash also make good eolors.

THE COMFORTABLE GIRL.

The welcome guest is the girl who, knowing the hour for breakfast, ap- pears at the table at the proper time, does not keep others waiting and does not get in the way by being down half an hour before the hostess appears.
 The welcome guest is the girl who, if there are not many servants in the house, has sufficient energy to take care of her own room while she is vis- iting, and if there are people whose duty it is she makes that duty as light as possible for them by putting away her own belongings and so necessitat- ing no extra work. She is the one who knows how to be pleasant to every member of the family and who yet has tact enough to retire from a room when some special family affair is under dis cussion; she is one who does not find children disagreeable or the various pets of the household things to be dreaded; she is the one who when her hostess is busy can entertain herself with a book, a bit of sewing or the writing of a letter; she is the one who when her friends come to see her does not disarrange the household in which she is staying that she may entertain them
