Don't sit facing a strong light.

Glove manufacturers say that they

PREDICTIONS BY DAME FASHION

Gunpowder blue and celery or spin
ach green are well liked.
Little lace toques made of valenci-
ennes, with a knot of roses at the side,
are smart.
The very choicest designs in thin
summer fabrics are in the shop for
choosing now.
Fur hats have never been so popular
with women of all ages, except the
very young girl.
The fashionable colors in Paris at
this time are ash gray, Havana brown
and smoke blue.
Pretty blouses in navy blue and other
dark silks have the yokes inset with
lace dyed to match.
Fetching hats of embroidered white
batiste have just a wreath Of shaded
roses around the rown.
Big tricornes, or toques, are the sim
plest sort of treatment with marabout
feathers, or stiff %gardenias in shaded
%colors.
Opal is for dance wear, lemon yellow
for dinner and evening occasion, and
turquoise blue for indoor afternoon
toilettes.
Sealskin brown is very smart, and
chamois yellow and raspberry red are
also worn, as are mink brown, mignon-
cite green, and pansy purple,
Rose, heliotrope, orchid mauve and
blotting paper pink are seen a great
deal, and yellow, ivory white and pearl
gray are worn by the best-dressed peo-
pie.
New Longing robes are luxurious af-
fairs Of a heavy silk stuff called matt
asse." One of lavender was lined and
embroidered with white, and held in at
the waist by a lavender silk cord.
Embroidered ribbon bands are FASH
ionable for trimming the dresses of
cloth or tweed. They can be bought in
all colors and in immense variety, and
supply a touch Of bright color to the
more sOmber costumes.

ABOUT THE INAUGURAL BALL.

Writing on "Our Inaugural Balls, A"
in the Delineator, Catherine Frances
Cavanagh concludes with this para
graph of advice: ITO the thousands all
ove the country who read accounts of
the inaugural ball in their home paper,
many with heart-burnings and envy of
those who could and did attend. I
would say: Don't! 1t is not worth it,
1t is a most public affair. which any
one who can pay the price of entrance
may attend. You may 80 dressed to
be seen and to see, and accomplish
neither because of the great crush.
Do not let the plea of wishing to see
the President be your excuse, either,
for every new executive gives those
who would wish him well the chance
to do so at the White House during the
week of his inaugural"

CAPEs AGAIN ACME OF FASHION.

Capes of all descriptions, all styles,
all lengths and all colors and materi-
ais are again the acme of fashion, and
smart wOmen have taken to this re-
vival in good faith, trusting the art of
the modiste and tailor to give them
perhaps just a bit of style which capes
or loose coats have not had before.
Some of the most elaborate evening
wraps are cape wraps, and never be-
fore have such beautiful garments
been turned cut without the least pre-
text of fit.
Cloth is used for the more severe of
these capes, and some stunning studies
are shown in the various shades of
tobacco brown. For opera wear these
garments are evolved from chiffon vel
vet, which pleats with remarkable soft
ness. A charming example shows rose
pink velvet with a chenille collar and a
band of exquisite Irish crochet lace
in deep points headed by tiny ruchings
of the velvet. There is a shallow yoke
which insures a smooth fit Over the
shoulders, and to this a sleeve cape is
applied in deep s%hirrings, so cleverly
that the presence of the sleeve is not
noticed until the arm is raised.

ThInks Theory EstabIIshed.

Thinks Theory Established.
At this time a dozen children in Dr..
Kellogg's home and 10 others in the
Haskell home show that the child of
the drunkard, the thief, or the habit
ual criminal, when removed from vi
cious surroundings and given the
benefits of Christian home life and
training is almost as certain to be a
credit to such a system of training
as the progeny of a long line of
Christian ancestors.
DR.. Kellogg's work has gone be-
yond the experimental stage and the
correctness of his theory he now
thinks is firmly established.
During tie past dozen years nun
dreds of children have been reared on
DR.. Kellogg's system, and as yet he
has no reason to doubt it's efficiency.
All of these children came from the
lowest and most forlorn conditions of
life. If the doctrine of heredity is
of any value, these children were
almost certainly doomed to careers
of crime and shame. That they have
not followed such lives may be said

and everything for the amusement Of
the doctors family of waifs-not only
the dozen in the Kellogg home. brit
the n%eighboring Haskellites as well.
The Kellogg home is indeed a study
of children-some who still have the
marks Of the lower world on their
countenances, and some who have
grown to strong manhood and beauti-
full womanhood, and are entering or
have entered the world as doctors,
nurses or teachers. Stories could be
told of some of them that would seem
beyond belief, but their past is now
sealed and they live only in the pres
ent and in the future.
The Haskell home is merely a larg-
err Kellogg home. The children live
in groups of families instead of be-
ing herded together like cattle. Each
group has its mother who loves
each child and is loved by each. sal
aries for this work are few and far
between. The mothers" work large
ly for love.
Each family sleeps together in a
coy little dormitory with a parlor
and other rooms adjoining, and each
has its Own morning and evening wor-
ship. Each has its " tables at
meals, the height of the table being
made to suit the height of the child
rem in each group.
The children take turns as walters.
Their food is simple and nourishino,
with plenty of grain, nuts, fruits ard
wholesome vegetables. No child ever
sees meat in any form.
The home. too, has its W school
rooms, where Sloyd work and man
Ual training are much in evidence.
Most of the boys are handy with
tools and many can make chairs from
the beginning, cutting and curing
their own materials, while the girls
are expert at basket-making and nee
dlework.
1t is evident as a whole that other
examples than Alberto can be quoted
to show DR.. Kellogg's success as
an experimenter along physiological
lines.

CANIpHOR FOR THE PIANO.

"Now," said the tuner, when he had
finished tuning the piano, you ought
70 put some camphor in the piano"
"Camphor?" said the owner of the
Instrument.
Yes" said the tuner, "to keep the
moths out. Moths get into piauos, as
they do closets and elsewhere, and
tere they feed on the felt coverings
Of the hammers, eating away their sur
faces, and so lmpairing their effect.
What you want is a couple of camphor
balls, each in a little bag of cheese
cloth, hung inside the piano, one at
either side"

now TO WASH LACE CURTAINS.

INV IL W Ap1A 1EAOH Jun AIMS
The best method of washing lace cur
tains is perhaps the easist and the
following is a good way to obtain good
results: Shake the dust from the lace,
lay in clear, cold soft water for an
hour; wiring out and wash in warm
water in which a little soda has been
dissolved; wash in several waters, or
until perfectly clean; rinse in water
well blued; blue the boiled starch quite
deeply; dip in the curtains and squeeze,
but do not wiring them dry. Pin some
sheets down to the carpet in a vacant,
airy room, and pin on the curtains
stretched to exactly the size they were
before being wet. In a few hours they
will be dry and ready to hang.
The whole process of washing and
pinning down should occupy as little
time as possible, as lace will shrink
more than any other cotton material
when long wet. Or fasten them in
frames made with the smallest size of
galvanized centre hooks, in which to
fasten the lace, and having holes and
wooden pins with which to vary the
length and breadth to suit the different
sizes Of curtains. The curtains should
always be measured before being wet,
and stretched in the frames to that
size to prevent shrinking. Five or six
curtains of the same size may be put
in, one above the other, and all dried at
once. The frames may rest on four
chairs.-Newark Advertiser.
