What setback the low hairdressins

carried all before it; and it is amusing
to see how the hairdressers are simply
filling their windows with the most
tempting switches plated into coronets
poised on the heads of beautiful beings

can manage the small tiara pleat and
some the fender pleat, but all may
manage it with the friendly artifice
of the hairdresser. One is reminded
in this connection of the old lady who.
when some one asked her wonderingly

RIBBON AS TRIMMING

One of the most suggestive features
of the hour is the employment of rib
bon as trimming. 1t ranges all the
way from the tiny comet ribbon to the
wide. soft sash ribbon. Ribbons are
much used on summer gowns. and
there are any number of striped and
shaded ribbons used for decoration.
Sashes and girdles reign supreme, belts
having gone out of date since the ap-
pearance of pointed bodices. Very mar
row comet or baby ribbon is used
either as embroidery or in shirred de-
signs. For example, ruffie of broad
ribbon may be trimmed with several
rows of very narrow ribbon put on in
the form of tiny ruching. Another
trimming is made by shirring the rib
bon on both edges and applying it
like scant puff. Not few of the
cashmere cloth gowns are trimmed
with shirred ribbon.

BANANA SALAD

A strip of the peel of large and
perfect banana may be turned back,
and most of the pulp carefully scooped
out. The short, thick variety of ban
ana, in either red or yellow, is the best
for this purpose. To all the space left
by the removal of the pulp, prepare
mixture of thinly sliced banana, shred
ded orange or grapefruit seeded and
peeled white grapes, and a few kernels
of English walnuts or pecans in small
pieces. In their season. stoned cher
ries may be added. All must first be
mixed in a bowl with a generous sup
ply of dressing, and after the yellow
cases are filed with the salad each
must be laid on lettuce leaves. These
must be prepared a short time before
using. Either mayonnaise or good
boiled dressing may be used.

After Hubbard fired, one OF the duck

THE WOMEN oF INDIA.

How to improve the condition of Its
women is one of the greatest problems
which faces India. That their lot has
been a hard one; that they have not
been given a fair chance in life; that
high position among the nations until
their women have been elevated, is
being more and more commonly adj
mitted.
With the progress of education and
the growth of the more civilized COM
munity. Indian women are slowly COM
ing to understand that many spheres
of activity and usefulness which hith-
erto have been closed to them are as
appropriate for them as for their hus-
bands and brothers. For the present
this community must lead in all these
movements. The Marathi Mission of
the American board. working in the
Bombay presidency, has now fairly de-
veloped several industries for girls.
The most important are weaving with
hand looms, rugmaking, lace embroid-
cry and art needle work. The obJec-
tons to the first and second of these
are that the profits are small, and that
they require machinery and equip
ments which prevent their being de-
veloped except in factories. In India,
much more than in the United States,
factories are unsafe places for girls.
The third and fourth industries are
most appropriate for Indian young
women. They can be developed in
private homes or anywhere else; they
require only a small and inexpensive
outfit; they offer large scope for skill.
intelligence and taste, and also bring
fair profits.-Southern Workman.

EGG TIMBALES.

Butter small tin moulds and dust
them with powdered parsley; then an
egg is dropped in each, and they are
put in pan of hot water and cooked
In the oven for about ten minutes,
when they may be turned out on Il
round platter, and a sauce made of a
cup of thickened cream with chopped
mushrooms in it, or a tomato sauce
with the mushrooms may be poured
around them. These timbales may be
altered by lining the moulds with finely
minced ham instead of the parsley,
but 1T must be moistened with cream or
egg to make it adhere to the tin. The
egg is put in and the sauce used as be-
fore.

wEDpING BoUoUErs.

Wedding bouquets have practically
resolved themselves into two styles
shower and "Bernhardt" bouquets, all
though an occasional sheaf of long
stemmed roses is seen. or even more
occasional round bouquets.
For the bride herself, almost any
white flower is good, the stereotyped
bouquet dixie the stereotyped gown OF
white SATIN being made of white roses,
relieved by little sprays of lilies of the
valley.
Lilies of the valley, in fact, play n
most important part in almost every
bridal bouquet, whether it is composed
of roses or orchids, gardenias or hya-
cinths.
Loops of misty tulle, twisted in
through the flowers, are an echo of the
wedding veil that softens the whole
effect of the bouquet, and transforms
it into something at once unusual and
exquisite.
"Bernhardt' bouquets are built on
the lines of a sickle with the flowers
arranged to curve away from the face
and to droop over the arm, instead of
preserving the curious stiffness SO
often seen in loose clusters.
But the prettiest ideasof all is new
arrangement for the tiny maid who
serves as flower girl. A great, rough
straw garden hat is bent up into a
basket, the handle formed of wide satin
ribbon, and is piled high with blossoms
ribbons and blossoms matching, and
both matching the ribbons on the small
girls dress.
For the brides veil. orange blossoms
are the rule, but gardenias and lilies
of the valley-and at Easter. Easter
lilies-are often used either instead of
or combined with the orange BIOS
SONS. The only arrangement of them
is the adjusting and readjusting of
flower or two, or tiny sprays Of the
little flowers until the most becoming
effect is got.-Washington Times.
