Gfving Away Clothes.

There are two ways of giving away
old things, moral and immoral. Those
who are guilty of the latter are the
people who use the poor as sort or
garbage barrel, something in which to
dump everything that is useless. They
are the people who give to their wash
erwoman old ball frocks and soiled
white satin slippers and things too rag
ged for any human being to make use
of. They are the people-it seems in
credible, but it is true-who carefully
cut off all the buttons on any garment
that is to be given away and never
think of mending anything. With such
persons giving is not virtue, but
convenience. They feel they can rid
themselves of much rubbish and yet
obtain a reputation for charity. A ray
of illumination on this subject was OBJ

THE ART OF PIONEERING.

The application of harmless face
powder is a decided beautifier to most
compilations, but while the majority of
girls use powder, very few understand
the art of applying it properly.
In the first place, the tint of the pow
der should be suited to the coloring. A
very dark person using white or pink
powder looks absurd. The tint called
Rachael is intended for a brunette
while blond will find pink or white
the more becoming.
Never use powder because it is pow
der and you imagine it necessary tot
let adjunct. If no one of the three tints
white, pink or Realistically suit
you go to a chemist and get him to
make the exact shade you require.
To make powder adhere to the skin
an application of skin food or cold
cream is necessary. All surfaces of
grease should then be wiped from the
face, and the powder busted on with a
puff.
Powder the forehead. chin and nose
before touching the cheeks and then
so dust round the cheeks that small
circle is left practically untouched by
the powder. This allows for a little
deeper color to be seen in this particu-
lar spot and adds to the effect.

Little Comfort. For Our Guests.

The guest room is apt to be the least
attractive room in the house, because,
however prettily it is furnished. there
is none of those little things about it
which make ones room honey
In the furnishing of a guest cham
Der take care to put in a little work
basket, with needles and threads. linen
and glove buttons. etc, in case a
week end visitor may not have her
own repairing kit with her and re-
quire it. Take care to give her a
small tin of biscuits, so that she might
if she felt hungry between meals, have
a little refreshment.
An important matter for visitors of
all ages and both sexes is that they
should be provided with something to
read. No ancient and fusty volumes,
turned out from other rooms, should be
found the bookshelves in the guest
chamber, but the most interesting and
up to date books and magazines that
the hostess can provide. These will af-
ford amusement at those times, when
the guest retires for little rest, and
during the weary hours of the night if
he Tor she) be unable to sleep, a state
of affairs which often obtains for the
first night or two in a strange bed, even
in the case of usually good sleeper.

boiler. Stir and cook the custard until
it slightly clings to the spoon, then add
the fiavoring, and the fruit pulp, if you
wish it. 1t should be borne in mind
that the custard must always be quite

or it will curdle and become granulated
instead of being velvety and soft. Be

The furore for lace is getting more
and more pronounced. Fichus of en-
broidered lawn, inner sleeves and Puri-
tan fuckers make delightfully."- useful
little accessories. In fact, everything of
this kind can be utilized.
A good many uncut stones are worn,
both as buttons and links, and these are
extremely chic on cloth frocks. Uncut
opals will run a close race with the
ruby in popularity this spring.
What is still more charming is the
revival of the old Spanish comb in real
tortoise shell, sometimes inlaid with
gold or silver. But anything beautiful
is nearly always good.

it into the saucepan containing the
cherries. Crush the kernels, put them
in and cover the saucepan with a
cloth. When the sirup is quite cold add
the strained juice of a lemon and a
wineglassful of kirchWaSser and, after
removing the little bag containing the
cherry kernels, freeze the mixture.
When ready to serve put tablespoon
full of the frozen cherries into a cham
payne glass and cover them with a
spoonful of ice cream which has been
favored with curacao and scatter some
chopped blanched pistachio nuts over
the top.
Small cantaloupes may be cut in half
and filled with ice cream. A little gin
ger handed with plain cream is a great
improvement.
The amount of ice used depends upon
the kind of dainty to be frozen. The
proportion of ice and salt for freezing
cream desired smooth is one measure
of salt to two of ice and for coarse
grained frappes two measures of salt to
one of ice. GRACE GRISCOM.

New Hat Ideas.

A great deal of fruit is being used on
all kinds of hats, and especially on the
Breton shapes. Some of the smartest
show apples, cherries, currants and
grapes placed without any meaning
whatever, but with extremely stylish
effect.
On almost every light hat we notice
a touch of black, and where it is possi-
BILE the inner brim is of black Many
tan shapes are lined with black, and

show high, elongated crowns, with
bands of black MORE ribbon, two or
three black wings being the sole trim
ming.
Some picturesque hats are in chip,
the crowns covered with currants OF
roses inbedded on puffed tulle which
fabric also forms thick ruches round
many of the crowns.

benefactor, Time was when ices in
any form spelled extravaganza and
were only to be purchased at high
prices from confectioner or made at
home by an unusually experienced
cook. consequently no one dreamed of
having ice cream, sherbets and ice pud-

cepuons- And even in these enlight-
