Fit One In Your Clothes Box and

Almost every woman owns one Of the
chintz covered boxes commonly called
window seat boxes and which are in
valuable. in small apartment for
holding silk skirts, shirt waists or hats,
but very few Of them are fitted with
trays, which greatly increase their con-
venience. ~
If you are at all handy, however, a
very little time and work will settle
the matter. Take strong pasteboard
box and line and cover it with silesia,
chintz or anything that is convenient
and looks we'll with the lining of the
other box. Do not use cheesecloth.
Things stick to it.
the necessary pasteboard box, as the
kind suits, dresses or cloaks are sent
home in will be just the right size
and strength. Two small cleats of
wood may be tackled inside the large
wooden box, one at each end, at the
desired height, and then the pasteboard
box set in on them just as tray is set
into a trunk, or, if you do not care
to bother with the cleats, screw two
small brass hooks into the sides of the
wooden box at equal height and sew
loops Of ribbon or tape to your paste
board box and hang the tray in.
By means Of this tray you cannot
only keep more things in your box, but
they can be kept in better condition,
and your shirt waists need not be
turned upside down quite so often.

For Bleaching the Hands.

A good paste for improving and
whitening the hands is made by blanch-
ing half pound Of bitter almonds and
beating them to smooth paste with
gill Of rose water. Add gradually half
a pound Of clear, strained honey. When
thoroughly mixed, pack into small jars,
pouring on the top of each little rose
water. Keep closely covered.
Another salve for softening the hands
is made by taking quarter Of a pound
Of CASTLE soap and shaving it in thin
slices. Put this in an earthenware or
porcelain lined pan, with just enough
water to moisten it. Let it simmer
slowly until dissolved and then stir I'M
til perfectly smooth, thickening it with
Indian meal. Take from the fire and
beat hard with silver spoon, adding
little orange or rose water when cool.
When thoroughly mixed, pack into
small covered jars. s.3

"Carat'' a. Applied to Diamonds.

Although the term carat is applied
to diamonds as well as to gold, it does
not mean the same thing. Used with
regard to the metal it expresses quality
or fneness, "a carat being pure gold
and % carat equal to coined gold. But
applied to the diamond carat means ae-
tual weight, and by this measure 1864
carats are equal to an ounce troy. The
value Of diamond is not merely SO
much per carat, irrespective of size,
but increases in an increasing ratio
with the weight Of the stone.

LIZARDS TAIL.
A Game That Is Played by Japanese
Boys and Girls.

Game That Is Played by Japanese
Boys and Girls.
Catching the lizards tail' is an out
door game. often played by Japanese
boys and girls. One of the children
having been made catcher, another is
then chosen for the lizards head, or
leader, and the other players form one
long line behind, each putting his or
her hands on the shoulders of the one
in front. This represents the lizards
body, and the last one in the line is the
tail.
Then the fun begins. The catcher,
standing a little way off, facing the
lizard, suddenly dashes forward and,
without touching the others, tries to
catch the tail. The lizard does her
best to protect her tail by moving first
this way and then that, with her long
body holding on behind. But should
any of the players lose hold and thus
break the line the tail is considered
caught. When the tail is caught he be-
comes catcher, and the former catcher
becomes leader and takes his place at
the head Of the line.
The lizard may move in any direction
she likes and is allowed to stretch out
her arms to keep off the catcher, but
she may not push him away. This is a
splendid outdoor game, and any num-
Der can play it-in fact, "the more the
merrier.''-
Shadow Bun.
To play shadow buff you should

tween the candle and him, distorting

whom the shadows belong, and if he is
correct the player whose shadow he
