HERE is CHARMING WORK.
Candle Shades That Can Easily Be
Made at Home.
.m the Philadelphia Telegraph.

From the Philadelphia Telegraph.
Candle shades resembling in character
those sold in japanese shops are now made
at home by women with an eye fer design
and color and fair dizziness of hand. The
decorative pictures, which are an essential
part of these shades are found In the cheap
little Japanese books on crepe paper issued
for some years past to meet the demands
of persons interested in Japan and its liter
ature Some of these books are in French
and few are in Japanese, but those seen
in this country are usually In English.
Whatever the language, the books are IL
Illustrated usually In characteristic japanese
fashion, with landscapes innocent of per-
spective and figures like nothing ever seen
on this side of the world.
The maker of such candle shades cuts
out little pasteboard frames trapezoidal in
form, with the parallel sides slightly curved.
Such a frame Is laid over of the col
ored Illustrations in a Japanese book, and
just the right figure or bit of landscape is
included within the trapezoid. The frame
is then blackened with India ink, in order
that the picture may be the more accen-
tuated. and the picture itself Is strongly
pasted on the back of the frame. When
five frames have thus been prepared they
are pasted together with strips of thin
muslin. When the whole is dry the shade
Is ready to be placed on the little brass
carrier that clasps the candle. When the
candle is lighted the shade has a really
jewel-lke effect, and If the pictures have
been we'll chosen the decoration has great
charm and variety.
Those who make such things must have a
quick eye for composition. 1t often hap
pens that a full-page illustration has a
single bit that is suitable for the purpose Of
the shademaker. and 1t takes the seeing
eye to discover this bit.
Many of the illustrations are useless for
the framemakers purpose, because they
are lacking either in strong and harmo-
NOUS coloring. effective figures or suitable
landscape compositions. Sometimes bits Of
two or more pictures must be put together
to give a really good result.
Agreeable effects are obtained by making
one shade exclusively of figure pictures,
another of landscapes, still another of
flowers. beasts. birds or fishes. The intel
ligent framemaker will reject those pictures
that are not Enthusiastically Japanese
Whoever undertakes such work at home
is likely to realize that the prices charged
for illuminated candle shades in the shops
are really not especially high. The work
requires taste, patience and skill.

affair of black watered silk poplin, and II
is worn with plain black cloth skirt. The
shoulders of this emphasize the new short
ness, and the scant puff sleeves are put on
to make the close forearm portion seem like
undersleeves.
All indications point toward revived in
terest in black, which this winter has been
entirely out of vogue. 1t has been distinct
ly color season, and even white needed to
be disguised with grayish and cream tlngeS
to pass muster But now the wheel is 10
turn and black comes again to the fore, for
reports and designs of many of the new
garments tell of the inky tinge.
The smartest street gowns are to be MADE
of black hgh-lustered cloth. which will be
worn in many instances with black mats
trimmed with white flowers. With gray
cloth gowns black hats and girdles will
be elegant feature.
Flowers-artifcial and natural-will be
worn in the corsage of these beautiful
gowns, and a French trick is to tie the
pink flowers with matching ribbons, as
violets are tied. Yet not so long ago Paris
considered the wearing of flowers in the
street as very outre habit, and dame or
damsel SO decked was apt to incur audible
comment from the paSserby. But then this
Is not the only Americanism Paris has
adopted. In every shop of prominence
American merchandise is to be had-shoes,
corsets, even gloves and hats!
Paris Far Ahead.
But notwithstanding the superiority of
much of our American merchandise, Paris
is still far ahead of this country in point
of taste. In the matter of hats alone,
American millinery has grown to be stun
ming. But a perfect French hat is some
thing to break the heart with desire. 1t
makes the millinery trade seem rare and
exquisite art, something almost as fine as
picture painting and story writing.
But, to return to the spring subject, all
this talk is what the fashion makers pro-
pose. Time alone can tell how the fair
will dispose of the subject, though doubt
less the last snowdrops will see many
STYLES upon an established basis. The redin-
cote gowns are likely to have an elegant
If not popular vogue, and, though the edict
is for longer garments, the smart little
boleros and Etons will in all probability
be seen again.
But a marked decrease in the circum-
ference of hat brims is certain, and skirts,
from the present leaning, can only grow
more and more limp and clinging. Vest
and belt embroideries in gold thread on
white satin are also elegant points to be
expected. Already, IN fact, some of the
belts are in the market, the bands bristling
with tinsel needlework, rather dull than
FURNISHED. The buckle is in the same dull
gold and shows often a great, irregular
fresh-water pearl, or rough gem, put I'M

Special Correspondence OF The Evening Star.
NEW YORK, February %, 1905.
The separate coat, whose mission is to
adapt itself to several gowns. is always at
its best in spring and autumn. Thin covert
and thin French cloths are then used with
several cuts and fine tailoring, and with a
black shirt and hat the sage and brown
tints in these accord most stylIshly.
Advanced spring styles show no din1inu-
ton in the prestige Of covert cloth as a coat
material. In every shade of tan and pale
brown and brownish sage are seen loose
and half-fitting models some slightly trim
med and some mannishly plain. With the
looser box models sleeves are usually in coat
shapes of moderate size, but the new spring
sleeve is a vast mutton leg, pleated clumsily
at the top. This arm covering. though suit
ing some, is not successful with all coats.
But the increasing bigness of bodice sleeves
makes the upper fullness necessary, and 1t
has the merit of newness. There is only one
thing to expect from the present trend of
fashion. If bodice sleeves go On growing
coat sleeves must in time spread from shout
der TO elbow, as there IS tendency with
some of the new sleeves toward the old bot
tom puff.

Useful Suggestions

The use of the galvanic battery for an
injury to a nerve is one thing and for SIM
pie nervousness another. Nervousness is a
symptom of some deranged condition, eth
er physical mental. Go to the root of
the matter instead of treating the symptom
with electricity. You may be living I'M
wholesomely, not getting enough outdoor
exercise, sleep and SO on. Walk or play
some outdoor game until you are tired;
this cures many a case. If your case is
more serious, go to skilled masseuse.
Massage and the rest cure are far superior
to any other treatment for acute nervous
ness.
Use the following depilatory for hair on
the face and let your druggist prepare it for
you: Twenty grammes sulphydrate of
quicklfme. made by passing a current of
sulphureted hydrogen through thick layer
of quicklime, saturating the lime; ten
grammes pulverized starch; ten grammes
glycerinated starch: ten drops essence of
lemon. Apply lightly to the hairy part;
leave 1t on half hour: wash off with
warm water and apply cold cream. If the
smarting begins before the half hour is
up wash 1t off then. Keep the preparation
away from the children's reach, as It is
poisonous.
For blackheads and large pores: Scrub
the face every night with hot water, CASTLE
soap and a camers hair brush. Use above
depilatory.

practical service are in belted ulster forms,
with a plain contrasting material forming a
deep collar and cuffs. An innovation with
the plain and novelty covert models is the
use of quite a bright green or black velvet
for these details. This dressy touch will
doubtless be found acceptable to many but
the woman who wants all-round gar
ment knows the value of a perfectly plain
and well-tailored coat.

Rare Lace.

Lace undoubtedly occupies a warmer COR
ner In the heart Of many women than the
most costly Jewels. and to add to their col.
lection forms the hobby of many WELL
known society leaders. Englishwomen of
the nobility have rare collections. The Mar
chioness of CRANKY, for instance, who IA
vors the quaint and barbaric type of jewel
rather than that in modern setting, has a
wonderful collection of lace acquiring many
rare specimens when on her travels, both a
home and abroad. Lady Waterford, too.
owns yards and yards of delicate Irish
point, in addition to equally priceless por-
tions of Venetian and Brussels lace and
number of other varieties. The lace heir
looms in the Sutherland family often adorn
the gowns of the beautiful duchess, and
Lady Warwick. too. is both lace lover and
owner. Princess Henry of Battenberg owns
one of the most superb collections, having
inherited the exquisite lace gathered to-
gether during her lifetime by the late Queen
Victoria.

poplin Will differ from the old in being more
supple and brilliantly finished.
IL seems difficult for fashion to devise
anything entirely new from top to toe for
each season, but there is always some little
kink or other that gives the fresh touch.
Some of the new shoulder effects demon
strated by these cuts are high and square
TO the point of stiffness. Others drop in
much the same way as those seen a year
ago, though without any of the former
exaggeration; rather. in fact, as If conces-
sion were made TO each Individual figure.

Keeping Household Accounts.

Keeping accounts may be little trouble
some. but it is quite worth while.
Have just one book, rather thick, that will
do for everything. Turn the front part into
cash account. Open the book out fiat,
write down your allowance on the left hand
page, and on the right put down what you
have paid the butcher, baker, etc.-every-
thing, even to postage stamp. Then once
a week. or oftener, balance. Balancing is
nothing harder than subtracting the total of
the money you have spent from what you
had In hand. The difference is what you
should have In cash.
When you have been keeping accounts for
some time you will realize as you never did
before what your money goes for. Keeping
accounts is not helping you to make money,
but 1t does help you TO find out how to get
the most for your outlay and how to ball
ance your needs with your income.
