Pink and silver.

An altogether attractive evening
dress by Paquin has just been shown.
1t is of white net and is trimmed with
seemingly endless ruffles and ruchings
of Valenciennes lace an inch and an
inch and half in width. This scheme
finishes the skirt at the foot, and is re-
peated three times above, though this
upper trio do not cross the front
breadth. Where they stop each side
there's dainty silver ornament that
looks like lace. Very fascinating is the
coat-like corsage of pink silk. 1t is en-
broidered with silver in the most deli
cate fashion. There are little coat-tails
and there are dainty elbow sleeves,
but there isn't much coat at the front.
1t is cut away to show the net and the
little Val. ruffles. There is a chelni-
settle effect of the net and lace. A pc
culiar feature is a cross-over-like drap-
cry of the pink silk across the front.
In addition to this there are the most

Suspender costumes in all their varla-
tions are greatly in vogue, and are ex-
ceedingly becoming to young girls
This one includes also a shaped bertha,
which gives the broad shoulder line
that is always desirable, and Is made
of bright plaid trimmed with black
velvet ribbon and worn over a gulmpe
of white lawn. The model, however,
is appropriate for all seasonable mate
rials, and the gulmpe can be made of
white washable material or of plain
colored flannel, as may be preferred.
The costume consists of the gulmpe
and dress. The guimpe is made with
front and backs, which are tucked to
form a yoke, and includes full sleeves.

Discovery Of Indian Pottery.

A squaw left her two boys to care
for her papoose while she worked in
side the tent. She did not notice what
the boys were doing with the papoose
until it began to cry. The squaw was
unable to find the miscreants, until
their distant voices told her they were
down by the river. Not coming when
she called them the gquaw found that
they were unwillingly disobedient.
Their feet were stuck fast In the wet
clay of the river bank. With great
difficulty she got them back to the
tent. Then they all laughed at their
footprints in the clay, for deep holes
remained wherever they had stepped.
The band of Indians left camp be-
fore sunrise next morning. The squaw,
with her boys and papoose, was soon
far away. During the hot summer
that soon followed the same band re-
turned to the river they had left. The
little boys ran down to the river bank.
No rain had fallen since their last
visit and they easily found their foot

until they were as hard as stone. They
called their mother to look at the
holes. She took some clay in her
hands, wet it in the river, then shaped
it like the hollow stone she used for
cooking. She dried it in the sun, and
when 1t was hard proudly showed her
dish" to the old chief. He then or
dered all the squaws to 'go and do
likewise" but they all soon realized
that their dishes would not hold
water, and broke easily.
One day squaw wanted TO save
some fire, which was very hard to get.
Not having anything to keep 1t in,
she seized one of the clay dishes which
had been abandoned as useless. The
hot Goals baked the dish, and she later
discovered that it would not break.
Wonder of wonders, it also held
water! Calling the chief and the other
squaws around her. the Indians real
lied that they had learned how to
make clay dishes in the right way

white Satin and Paint.

What think you Of the dainty chain
bag hooked to the waist belt of our
young lady? 1t Is of white satin, with
single line of gilt pallettes over
tapping like fish scales and serving to
outline a hand-paintcd scene, n group
under the Dlrectoire, by the we'll
known costumes of that period. This
adorns one side of the pretty bag, the
reverse side is absolutely plain. and no
paillettes are allowed here, as they
would injure the skirt against which
they lie. A rather fine gllded chain Is
used to suspend this bag from its chatc-
lnine hook.

Brownie, the Pet Sparrow.

We have little pet sparrow around
by our house, and every day he comes
to the window to be fed. We have
named the little fellow Brownie, and
he knows his name just as well as
we do. The poor little bird has only
one leg. Father says somebody must
have hurt him very badly, and he
does not know how Brownie ever lived
after losing his leg. But he Is just
as bright and lively as If he had both
legs to stand on. When he flies to
the window he balances himself on
one foot and stays there for the long
est time and eats out of our hands.
The other day, when the snow and
rain came. all of us children were
very much afraid that Brownie could
not find his way to us, but after
little while he came flying up to the
window and stood there looking in as
much as to say: Haven't you any
thing for me today?" OF course we
had and when he had eaten a whole
lot of crumbs he went flying away
again.-Indlanapolis News.

Value of Neatness,

Few young women realize that it is
of great Importance that they should
always make the very most of their
personal appearance. Because a girl
is pretty or clever or busy, she cannot
afford to neglect her appearance. If
she is pretty she can add to her pret-
tiness by giving it proper setting; if
she is clever she can make herself
pleasant to look on as well as to listen
to, ard if she is busy it won't take
much extra time to keep herself look
ing trim ard neat.
The time spent in front of her look
ing glass is not wasted. Of course, to
stand primping for hours is not ad-
yised, but every woman should spend
enough time to see that her clothes
are neatly put on and her hair proper
ly arranged.
Some girls would be surprised to
know how many good chances in life
are lost through carelessness of per-
sonal appearance.
1t is said that men do not always
demand beauty in the women they
love, but they do want some attraction
to take its place, and the woman who
makes herself look dainty and neat
has an attraction almost as powerful
as beauty. The woman who is forced

Household Hints.

Strong, hot vinegar will remove
paint and mortar from glass.
Rub grease on the seams Of new
tinware, keep in warm place for a
day, and the article will not rust in
the seams.
Starch and iron wide lamp wicks
and wicks for oil stoves. They will not
then cause trouble in fitting them in
to the burners.
Do not wash the wooden breadplate
in hot water and it will not turn black.
Wash with soap and warm water, and
rinse in clean cold water.
Always wash off the top of the milk
bottle before removing the little pa
per cap, since it is by the top that
the delivery man always lifts the bot
tie.
Tissue paper in which there is no
sulphur is now provided for wrapping
silver in This is said to keep the sill
yer clean and bright for any length Of
time.
Lemon syrup made by baking
lemon 20 minutes and then squeezing
the juice upon half cupful of sugar
is excellent for hoarseness and to
break up cold.
Floor cushions made of fancy bur
lap and stuffed very full with excel
sior are convenient for bedrooms.
Piled one above another they make

cold feet is to take off the shoes, place
the feet on one of these cushions and

ming away the moisture.
At each ironing fold the table linen
new way if possible, as 1t wears first
in the folds. A good plan is to pur-
chase an extra half yard of tablecloth,
and after a time cut off the extra
length. This brings the creases in
new place. When darns become neceS-
sary use ravelings of tablecloth or
napkins as they are much less MOTTO
able than thread.
Glycerine is always used in combina-
ton with rosewater or elder flower
water, but probably few women know
why this is done. 1t is because glycer-
inc has such an affinity for water that
when applied pure it absorbs all the
moisture from any surface that it
touches. Plain water will do just as
we'll as rosewater, apart from aesthetic
considerations.

Bertie's Happy Family.

Down in Virginia, where BERTHE
lived, everybody looked upon him as
the prince of mischief. All the pranks
played in the town were laid to Bsr-
ties door, To some of these he had to
plead guilty, but not to all. BERTHE
was the minister's son, and from time
immemorial ministers sons were apt
to be considered worse than other
peoples because more was expected OF
them Despite the opinion most peo-
pie had of BERTHE, he had more good
qualities than bad; originality, con-
scientiousness and a great love for
animals being among the number.
One Sunday morning in August Mr.
Dilworth, Bertie's father, made stir
ring appeal for funds to re-roof the
old church. This church referred to
though the State as THE Old Stone
Church." was an historic landmark. 1t
had been built in 1850 and many Of
the magnificent trees which formed a
grove arouSd it had been standing at
the time. Now, new roof meant
S100, which was great deal of money
for Winchester, where money had not
been very plentiful since the war.
Mr.. Dilworth's appeal called forth
much planning, especially among the
women of the congregation. Before
another Sunday had rolled around a
festival had been determined upon.
This was to be held in the grove, with
all sorts of refreshments and articles
for sale. Many of the children were
pressed into service as helpers, but
BERTHE was in some way overlooked.
Perhaps, because he was thought TO
be too full of pranks and mischief 70
be of much use in the festival prepara-
tions. BERTHE was hurt. Hadn't he
more interest in the church than any
of the others? Every one in the coun-
try knew that his great-great grand 4
father had given the ground for it
way back $50 years ago. Hadn't his
given all the
money to build it, and hadn't the min
listers for nearly hundred years all
been his relations? BERTHE was indig-

A Woman of Thirty.

j When one knows the age of wom-
an one knows the woman. The very
fact that she permits you TO know her
age exposes her character. She no
longer masQuerades. She has lost a
certain uncertainty, an evanescent
delicacy, that was an irresistible
charm. Women, like philosophy, are
divided into two classes, the know
able and the unknowable. Also like
philosophy, it is the unknowable wom-
an who is the speculable. Therefore
to get her at her highest capacity, she
must be unmarried and about thirty.
The married woman presents GER
tain inescapable tell-tale data. She
has children, and those children have
apparent ages, two facts which go far
in determining her annals. If she is
unmarried-and is not "about thirty"
she is under thirty-again a definite
fact. Being "about thirty" is indefi-
mite She may be more or less. No
one hazards a guess. There is de-
lightful vagueness in being about
thirty" 1t has nothing to do with
dates; and many of us who from our
youth up have felt no attachment for
dates can forgive the unattached their
confessed Indifference.

Care of Rubber Plants.

OF all the freak remedies that are
sometimes proposed for sick house
plants, those which are recommended
for rubber plants are the worst. They
run all the way from applying beef
steak and castor oil to the roots to
coating the leaves with milk. Give
your plants properly prepared soil
and sufficient light, and keep the
leaves free from dust and scale, and
you will find no necessity for such
nostrums as these. Make it practice
to so over the plants daily with a soft
cloth and remove any indication of
dust, scale or insects.-Country Life in

Third, who could tumble through a

that such hooks are usually of tricky

Loose Long Coats.

The woman who can buy but one

something on the raglan order. The

The number of pockets in these
wraps which are admirable for shop

The newest of these coats do not

show from six inches to foot of the

toned that the well-groomed woman
does not abuse this convenient and

well pressed and tailored as does her
husband or brother, who sends his rag
Ian regularly to the tailor for cleaning

Among the post-holiday sales which
are worth considering are those which

selection of fur-lined coats. Just

even longer loose coat in good quail

Act of Gratitude.

The act of gratitude ought to be
taught in the schools" says an Eng
lish woman writer. Il am perfectly
astonished sometimes at the attitude
of my own sex. A woman wishes to
alight at a certain station. A man
a total sthanger-not only opens the
door, but hands out her many pack
ages, ali Of which she receives as her
right, and calmly walks off without a
word Of thanks. Then. again, wo-
man is walking along the street all
unconscious of foot or two of braid
trailing behind her. You wish to do a
kind action, and inform her Of the
fact. Instead of the expected Thank
you,' you receive a stony stare as
though you were in some way respon-
sible for the untidy state of the dress.
How often, too, we hear that certain
valuable article has been returned 10
its owner, who showed his or her
gratitude to the finder by reward so
trivial as to be almost an insult.
