Household

Flatlrons in the average household
are too often sadly neglected. They
are very apt to be left OH the back Of
the stove. where they can never be-
come thoroughly cold and where in
time they lose their power to regain
heat Like all iron and steel instru.
ments, they possess that peculiar dual.
ity called temper. Irons that are heat
ed to high temperature, and then. q,
soon as the worker is through with
them. hut In a cool place to become
thoroughly cold. will last for many
years. Irons grow more valuable with
time. If good care in some other re-
spects. Is taken of them. For instance
they should be kept in dry place
where they are not subject to rust or
moisture. Flatirons that have lost
their temper and become rusted o,
roughened should be disposed of. and
not left to take up valuable sp~> on
kitchen shelves. New irons cL.,c lit
tie. and it is poor economy to use old
ohes that are past their usefulness.

Alfalfa For Hnps

The Charm of the Veil.

The European has awakened to the
fact that wells, If not always graceful
and becoming, are convenient in all
styles. SO the veil is an established
mode in fashionable Paris, and its pace
may be said to be officially set-two
years and more after the American
women introduced it as vogue.
The automobile is responsible for
many fads; one of the latest is an
elongation of the already long auto
mobile veil. The new veil to be fash
tonable. must not be less than seven
yards long. A tall woman wears one
even longer. so that the ends float
across the bottom of her dress. These
long wells have wide hens. usually
headed with a fine needlework stitch.
They are plain for the most part, al
though fashion shows tendency to
decorate them with big polka dots.
