EMBROIDERED wAIsrcoArs.


Is so unobtrusive as to be acceptable
to even the most conventional man.
Solid embroidery should always be
used, eyelet never. Light, small pat
terms should be chosen, with a little vine
or trailing pattern put on the lapel
and narrow brier stitch or other Dor
der stitches set along the edge. Re
peats to correspond with the lapel pat
tern should be scattered over the main
part of the vest. Circles and wheels
interlaced may be used both for the
motifs and the continuous pattern.
Mercerized cloths or silk vestings are
equally pretty done in cotton or silk,
and a good choice is light gray, cream
or ivory. The clever buyer may pro-
cure a ready made vest in the right
size and apply the embroidery, leaving
it to be altered at the haberdasher' S
afterward If necessary. Silk, cotton
and webbing four-in-hands are made
attractive by treating with little mar
row chain patterns.
Pinballs make a pretty little present
and are more popular with some WON
en- than the pincushion, as they can

The Importance of Diet.

II would make it a necessary condi-
ton to matrimony that every woman
should know how to cook" observed
the reformer. More mems careers
are spoiled by dyspepsia than by any
thing else. Why does the poor man
go to the saloon? Half the time be-
cause he is devoured by thirst caused
by the = asy, unpalatable meal he
has been enjoying % at home.
why do so many men go TO their
business feeling heavy and without
ambition unless 1t is because their
breakfast has been neither nourishing
nor we'll cooked?
Women can make or mar a man,
and, strange to say, food plays q most
important part IN this. 1 would have
every prospective bride learn the nu-
tritive values of different foods and
the best way to avoid grease and soy
giness. 1t would contribute largely To
her happiness"

Explanation of the Deed.

It is surmised that when he arose,
half asleep, and went to the bath room
early Sunday morning, he intended to
shave himself. but changed his mind,
and took his razor back TO bed with
him. Then. falling asleep by his wife's
side, some subconscious impulse caused
him to WELD the blade across his
throat, severing the jugular vein. See
ing what he had done. and being una
bic to speak to the Mortified members
OF his family and the servants that
surrounded him he motioned for pa
