Glass Covered Bureaus.

1t is fad among fashionable folk this
winter to cover their long dressing tables
with thick white glass with a beveled edge
These are used on all kinds of wood and
also with the cloth draped bureaus. The
crystal is about quarter of an inch thick
and IS cut to measure, 1t is placed oyer
a colored cover of satin or silk and Is
Wonderfully effective A damp cloth keeps
1t perfectly free from dust, and it does nos
wear out, SO while it is expensive at first
1t outlasts a hundred lace and embroidered
covers. The toilet articles are laid on IT.
Silver would scratch it, but the fashionable
toilet sets are not made of silver When
this metal is used tiny lace doilies are
placed under the heaviest pieces. All the
boxes. bottles and mirrors, being of glass
are not injurious. The candles are of
crystal or Florentine silverware and look
prettier when they have tiny lace pieces
under them AS some of the expensive
dressing tables are from six TO eight feet
long one can use up any amount of toilet
articles in covering them.

Southwark the fashionable swallow is
now flying, with big trunks stuffed with
all the airy finery of eternal summer. The
southern winter resort offers many OPP
portunities for clothes as for health, and
scarcely the holidays over than the
grand exodus from colder chimes begins.

Advocates of the physical equality OF
women and men might find arguments to
support their theory among the japanese.
The girls and boys wrestle on equal terms,
and the women are said to be as strong
as the men-supple, bounding with the
vim OF life and graceful in every line" The

Marie Antoinette from her wealth of
arts most wondrous accomplishments,

beauty than the jewel box. 1t may not
carry with it the romance of Portal S
ponderous jewel baskets, where gems
were, indeed, buried when not in use, hut
the wonderful clearness of its crystal
cases and the delicacy of its fligrees
serve to enhance the brilliancy of its
precious holdings. These crystal boxes
are now in high favor, and extremely ar
tistic reproductions of early models are
to be had at very reasonable prices.
Crystal boxes in heart shape have a
framework of French gilt, showing dane
ing eupfds. This filigree also forms a
ceptacle in which the crystal heart box
rests. The cover is of porcelain incased
in framework of cupids, and has me-
dalton center showing the striking pro-
file of a Roman lady. The French gilt
framework surrounding the crystal cases
are really gilt fligree, and display most
graceful designs of sylvan scenes or wa
ter nymphs, the filigree sometimes cover
ing the entire box. An exa mple of this is
large square jewel box with a filigree
of water nymphs eliminating on the
cover in "a figure of Neptune Beautifully

Cabinets of crystal have a silver gilt
back, padoed inside with pale blue tufted
satin. Three crystal shelves hold the
jewels, which seem to gain in ulster from
the reflections of the glass. Rounding
crystal doors have their silver gilt frame

framework being used along the edges of

The London Telephone Girl.

The hated sumptuary laws for telephone
girls are to disappear conditionally. They
were stringent, unQuestionably. The girl
who came to work in the morning with a
colored comb in her hair was fined: the girl
who dressed in colored blouse must wear
a dreadful black overall, and there was a
black book for girls who put on beads. For
six months the telephone girls are to dress
as they please, with the understanding that
If the privilege be abused things will revert
to their former hideousness. We hope thew
will be happy and clever, and pay great at
tention to what they are told. Something
has been wrong with them, noteriously But
If they will settle down now-talk less about
what they wear and attend to the tele-
phones-the state of busy London will be
more endurable.

USeS OF the bar.
The bar has many uses in corrective
exercises. 1t should be arranged that
it can be adjusted in many positions. The
slanting position is very important in cor
rective work. Let its lower end be just
high enough for you to reach easily. At
this end you should begin the ascent, work
ing your way to the higher end, where
you will find yourself dangling in the air.
The low side, of course, is the one to be
raised in this process. At first you may
drop gently when you have reached the
high end of the bar Later, you should
hang for few seconds before dropping.
Take the ordinary standing position,
heels together, hands on hips, thumbs to
the rear. Raise arms in circle. letting fin
gers meet on the top of the head, palms
At two return to position. At three, raise
only the arm belonging to the side of the
low hip or shoulder, letting it go through
the same motion as before. At four, re-
turn to position. Continue in four counts.
Stretches the Body.
The windmill exercise is excellent to
level the figure, in that it stretches the
body, and stretching is the keynote of this
Strengthening system Until the spine is

The windmill movement is performed by
bending the body from the waist. letting
