there ara hat boxes OF the came kind, but
one can always une the ordinary hat boxes
and put them In the closet.
They are so abused. those poor hats.
For the first week. perhaps. one takes
good care Of them and then they are thrown
on closet shelves and exposed to dust and
the hatpins are stuck In them anywhere
and soon they are old and battered.

for the hat, and there should be too a hat
peg Of much tissue paper 10 keep the weight
Of the hat from resting on the cdchepelgne
and on the brim. II Is so easy to spoil the
shape Of the brim. and now when there Is
40 much trimming under the brim, II is
shocking to lay the hat down fiat on u shelf
or In a box.
Look at the mussed. wadded tulle hllirg

against the hair; but this crumpled. untidy
stuf-Madame will admit that there Is no
excuse for such abuse,
1T is the same with the flowers, the
plumes that go under the. hat brims. They
are spoiled in a week II the hat is put AWAY
carelessly.
French chalk will clean some light felts.
and there is a saturated solution OF boractc
acid for the white straws. The white chip
that is fashionable now spoils ca silly, and
one should Use this boracic acid and a tooth
brush. when the shape and trimming will
allow.
Il curl Madame's plumes carefully over
the edge of a knife not too sharp, and flowers
petals are loose. One must wipe of the
foliage and the 'arge flower petals often
with soft cloth, Id the little flowers must
be brushed carefully with a soft hat brush.
"A hat does not look well after the first
few weeks II one does not give 1t the right
care, but the ladies' will not take the time
for 1t. They have not the patience.
And the wells, mon Dier, the wells! 1t
goes TO my heart to see the wells that are
worn by some women.
The veil Is bought, it Is worn once and
is folded carefully. 1t is worn again and
is folded oarelessly.. 1t Is worn a third
time and is wadded in any kn Of bunch
and tucked into a bag or purse or raTer;
Never again does II look fresh, be:
coming, coquettish, all that a veil should

this one In all its mussiness. n yet
a good veil, and it pays to buy a good veil,
II one intends to take care OF 1t, ought to
wear for q long time.
shops there should be p~asteboard rolls to
roll the wells on. The shop girl folds the
veil carelessly and Grams 1t in an envelope:
Always / nave a shiver when / see a good
veil treated like that.
aOne must nave a padded roll long enough
to take the width OF the veil without fold
ing, and the veil must be rolled on that
M pinned securely. II is quite easy TO
make the roll-a sheet Of cardboard with
cotton wadding around it and silk for
covering.
Sometimes one can buy the stout paste
board rolls in which photographs are de-
livered, and they are better than the card
board, because they are irmer. Also. i!
them in gum arabic water; but those things
are too troublesome for the woman who
takes care Of her own things.
-The little rules for cleaning every lady
should know, every lady has not a maid TO
know them for her. A maid must be able
to clean gloves and lace and take out spots,
but it is not hard to learn the tricks.
Zone can do much for gloves by taking
them of carefully and putting the stretohers
in each finger before laying them away; but
though every m knows that, few
women take the trouble to do 1t or ever
to blow the fingers into shape.
@And the shoes! What shoes some women
wear, under good gowns! One must have
trees, trees for every pair Of shoes. II one
cannot afford q pair Of trees made to the
last OF each pair Of shoes, the adjustable
trees will do; but no shoes must ever be
taken of without having trees put into
them Immediately.
Even when one is sleepy the shoes or
slippers must not be allowed to stand empty
during the night. 1t takes only a moment
to slip the trees IN, and then the shoes are not
getting into bad habits while one sleeps.
A good oil or paste rubbed into the leather
when the shoes are put awey is a better
thing than a dressing applisd when the
shoes are about TO be worn.
ooh, there are so many things, little things
that help to make a dress allowance go far,
very far, but I am firing you, Madame
The ordinary woman demurred.
Its very good Of you, Marie. I prob
ably am too depraved to reform, but I am
going to try. I've left undone all the things
I ought to have done and have done all
