A tiny ivory fan is the latest form
of Partisan fancy and the girls are
hunting their family archives through

seventy years ago. Parents are pre-.

gram fans. A girl carries small
silk fan of the folded variety and is in
the habit Of opening it and laying it
on her lap, and in the middle of the
fan her name will be seen most ex-
quisitely presented on specially
wrought lace, Another idea is blue
linen fan with monogram in the cen
ter of it embellished with a little cir.
Gle of green leaves. The appearance
is very much as though it were a
medallion set into the fan. And still
another fan is made of taffetas. with
a worked medallion in the middle and
a lace ornament at each side.

How Bees Embalm.

Bees, says Horbis, can embalm as
successfully as could the ancient
Egyptians. 1t often happens in damp
weather that slug or snail will en-.
ter beehive. This is, of course. to
the unprotected slug a case of sudden
death The bees fall upon him and
sting him to death at once. But what
to do with the carcass becomes a vital
question. II left where 1t is, 1t will
breed a regular pestilence. Now
comes in the cleverness of the insects.
They set to work and cover It with
wax, and there you may see 1t lying
embalmed just as the nations of old
embalmed their dead. When II is a
snail that is the intruder. he is. of
course, impenetrable to their sting: so
they calmly cement his shell with wax
to the bottom of the hive. Imprison-
ment for life, with no hope of pardon.

1S94-96 was the possessor of probably
the only dog that has ever been
awarded medal for gallant conduct
on the field, says Golden Days. This
was sable collie named Flora. sent
out from England as a companion for
another collie named Don. These two
dogs were known respectively as The
Fox and The Lion by the natives, who
had never seen the species before, and
greatly feared them. In the various
engagements which took place both
animals were very useful, marching
at the head of the column, and on 60

their share by barking and showing
their teeth to the enemy. Don died of
fever and was buried at Zomba. but

Hand Embroidery.

Hand embroidery has changed lit.
tie with the season. II is not applied
so much in the form of applique as
In direct hand work upon the silk. You
can take a plain blue silk skirt and
coat and make it really elegant by
putting a few sprays of embroidery
upon 1t. This is done all the time by
those who wish to dress handsomely.
Particularly are the advantages of
hand work brought out in the getting
together of the brides trousseau. Here
when one is spending so much. few
dollars will count for great deal, and
one must economize at all points. If
one can do ones embroidery with the
help of seamstress, just so much is
saved.

Embroidery in variety of colors

lovely embroidery strips that come for
the front of waists, for the wrists and
for the girdle-all done in Japanese

Turkish Girls Debut.

urkiSn GirIS DEBUT.
Until Turkish girl is years old
she Is free to run about and play the
same as her brother. After that time
she is regarded as grown-up She
leaves school and puts on veil. She
Is forbidden to run about. No man
except her father or husband Is al
lowed to look upon her face and she
is not permitted to go into her fathers
part of the house.
Her parents begin to arrange for her
marriage-she has nothing to say in
the matter. She must he married by
the time she is IL. ano her husband
will probably be aaout II. In Turkey
an unmarried man or woman is un-
known: Such state Is looked upon
as disgraceful.
When the wedding arrives the cere-
monies last a week. The wedding
dress is most gorgeous affair, often
costing $1,000, being embroidered in
gold and pearls The prettiest part
OF the ceremonies takes place one
evening when the girl friends of the
youthful bride entertain her family.
Each takes lighted candle. and, form.
ing procession. with the bride as
leader, march about the grounds
among the flower beds through the
trees. All are In bright colored
dresses, their hair hanging over their
shoulders. Songs are sung. sweet
musical chants are heard and the
scene suggests nothing so much as a
bit out of fairyland itself.

Suit of White Panama.

An exceedingly smart coat suit of
white Panama was recently worn by
a well-known society girl and attract
ed more than ordinary attention The
coat of the loose box type, fitted per-
fectly in back and opened in front
over an oddly pointed vest. There
were no decorations of any sort save
inset pieces of American beauty red
velvet over the shoulders and cuffs OF
same on sleeves. Stitched bands of
the material bordered the edge of coat
and vest. The skirt was walking
length and plain.

Yes" replied the host, Il guess It

bread you are eating grows on trees,
all ready to be put into the oven. No
yeast cakes. no kneading Of dough.
When you want a loaf of bread here
you just so out of doors and pick It,"
THAT beats going to the bakery
for it, said Frank, and besides, no
bakery sells such good bread as this"

nature takes a notion to do anything
of this kind she generally does 1t up

The next day Frank was taken out
to see the trees. big trees they were,
with thick, shiny leaves and the
leaves of bread hanging everywhere
among the branches, like small, hairy
footballs, each loaf weighing about
four pounds.

Ants Cowsheds.

One of the most interesting studies
of insect life is the relationship be-
tween ants and plantlice. or aphids,
says st. Nicholas. These plant-lice
supply honeydew from the juices
which they take as food from plants
The ants are very fond of this sweet
substance and care for the aphids in
manner that seems to us surprising
ly intelligent. They sometimes carry
them bodily TO a better feeding
ground and drive away certain of
their enemies It is claimed that they
even build sheds of mud In the
crotches Of shrubs and small trees.
On account of this insect relationship
one may truthfully call the ants "far.
mers," the aphids COWS" and these
protecting mud cases "cowsheds.'
