The Coronet Couture

Here is a wrinkle" for those who
boast a sufficient quantity of hair to
make a good thick and long plait. Di-
vide your locks into two equal halves.
and make a couple of plaits; bring one
up toward the front round each side
of the head, crossing them cleverly in
front, and this will not be perceived;
the ends will tuck under at the sides
of the head, and the plait that is Wis
ible across the brow will appear to be
one long plait simply. OF course, for
really fashionable coiffure this is not
adequate; the hairdressers when they
ordain the fashion have too keen an
eye to business to introduce a simple
style that can be easily accomplished
by the wearer; and the new method
of hairdressing demands not only
enough hair to make the full plait coro-
net shape above the forehead, but also
enough to turn back over a pompadour
front and to build into coils or curls
behind. Only it is possible to combine
the fashionable detail with ones own
Icommonsense, and to make the plait
alone suffice, when one has enough
hair to construct this becoming coro-
met.

Pictures let into the wall are an old
idea recently developed in a new
home by a woman designer.
Cut flowers will last much longer If a

To fill up old nail holes, take fine
sawdust and mix it with glue into a
thick paste. Fill the holes with this

wood as good as ever.
To make furniture oil take half a

save for long wraps.
Moleskin has no place except with a
cloth costume Of the same shade.
Lynx is smart, but too delicate for con-
slant wear.
Bear and Russian sable are both good,
serviceable and generally becoming.
Small sable animals, with head and
claws intact, fasten closely about the
neck and make fashionable collars.
Boas are better choice than stoles, and
the longer the boa the better
The short ties which knot simply at
the throat are likely to be quite as good
next winter as this, not having yet been
overdone.
AIuffs are both round and fiat, but the
larger muffs are preferred, and the round
shapes remain longest in vogue; in fact
never go out.
Good mink is a safe choice, and among
the less priceless varieties fox has a Ger.
tain standing which will insure it's being
worn more or less each winter.

Jokes on Good Men

The Chicago News tells the follow
ing: Upon one of his tours Bishop
Potter spent a few days at the home
of a prominent churchman. The lat
ter's wife took particular pains in maxi
ing the Bishops room worthy of the
guest, and among other things in
tended for his comfort put fine silver
toilet set on the bureau. The Bishop,
however, preferred his own. and trans
ferred the set provided to a drawer.
The consequence was that when the
hostess went to the Bishops room
after his departure the silvet set was
missing. She worried for several days.
then finally summoned up courage to
write a very apologetic letter to the
Bishop, asking IL by any chance he had
found any of the articles among his
luggage. There was an immediate and
characteristic reply. The telegram
read as follows: Poor but honest.
Look in the washstand drawer"
Archbishop Ireland doesn't mind
telling a joke on himself. The Arch
bishop always dresses so unostenta-
tiously that no one could guess his
episcopal rank from his street garb.
Travelling one day in a rural district
he met a good-natured woman in the
car, who. after some general conver-
sation, asked him: you're n priest
father. aren't your" In a bantering
mood, the Archbishop thought he'd
try a quibble to put her at her ease,
so he answered: mo. my good woman
I'm no longer a priest" The woman
gave him plying glance. Then she
said. soothingly: ooh, the Lord help
us. father! II wasn't the drink,
