Ribbon Embroidery.

IL IS reVIVeu.
Marie Antoinette loved it.
1t has appeared at intervals.
1t is very effective on revers.
Collars and cuffs are thus to be
adorned.
1t is even spoken OF for a correct
trimming.
On petticoats it is one OF the latest
features.
Even silk stocking are threatened
with this decoration.
For fancy work it is one of the most
effective sorts of embroidery

A Pretty Hair Ornament.

One OF the prettiest of the new hair
ornaments shows bowknots of minia-

buds. They are arranged on a wire
SO that the bows are at either side
of middle front, the loops almost
touching and the ends quite erect,
forming a veritable diadem.

About Women.

Our present methods of training
girls are unsuccessful, declares a wri-
ter. Grace is lost quantity among
women.
The Viscountess Aoki. wife of the
Japanese ambassador, has introduced
pretty fashion in tapestry for chairs
and settees. This is pretty weaving
of proverbs, verses and prayers into
the tapestry coverings.
Mrs. Bullock-Workman, the intrepid
explorer, who has won fame by her
climbing feats in the Himalayas, now
holds the worlds record for mountain
eering. She has scaled a height of
23,150 feet in the Nun Kun range.
A singular birth custom prevails in
Yorkshire, England. In parts of the
West Riding 1t is quite common for
visitors to a house In which a new
baby has appeared to carry with them
as an offering to the infant a new
laid egg. some salt, piece of bread
and. In some cases, penny.
Women of whom the low style of
couture is becoming are much enam-
ored just now of a low round knot
OF hair placed almost on the neck.
Here and there at the sides of tn.
hair are placed amber hairpins, top
ped by an elongated ball, completing
most becomingly this style of hair
dressing.
The smart wedding invitation or an

One of the most remarkable women
In Vermont Is Mrs. Esther s. Damon
OF Plymouth, in that state, who is
now so years old, and who is said to
be the only living widow of any SOL
der of the revolution. Mrs. Damon
was not born until nearly a genera
ton after the close of the struggle
for American independence. but at
the age of 81 she married Noah Da-
mon. a 16-year-old veteran of that
under the average height of European
ladies, yet SO perfect are her proper
tons and SO graceful her carriage
that she seems to need nothing to add
to her majesty. Her features are vi
vacious and pleasing, rather than
beautiful. Her complexion is not yell
low, but subolive. and her face is illu-
minated by orbs of JET half hidden
by dark lashes, behind which turks
the smile of favor or the lightning of
her anger. No one would take her
to be more than 40.
In the Rue Saint Roche, Paris lace
shop has been opened which has been
organized and is being directed by
the eX-Queen Dowager Marie of Sicily.
Fifty thousand people were rendered
homeless by an earthquake at CAL
abria. and 1t is in order to help these
unfortunates. her former subjects,
that Marie has started this shop in
Paris for the sale of Calabrian lace
She has also erected schools and work
shops In Calabria, where girls may
learn lacemaking and find employ
ment all the year round.
One woman who has built country
home on the most elaborate plan has
introduced many novel ideas in its
arrangement and furnishings. She is

idea to the smallest detail. Thus the

Not every one knows that there are
rods for the front edges of closet
shelves on which to hook clothes han
gers. A closet furnished with them
will hold many more clothes than If
they were arranged under the shelves
or against the walls.
Have perforated covers for the fry
ing pan, 80 that the grease will not
spatter on the stove. The holes allow
the steam TO escape and do not pre-
vent the food from browning. Any lid
which will fit over the pan may be
perforated by punching holes in it
with nail or ice pick and hammer.
A cake of bark soap and a small
piece of black cloth should always be
On hand to take spots out of dark
clothing. 1t is perfectly harmless and
will remove ordinary stains better
than benzine, which is both dangerous
and disagreeable. Dip the cloth in
warm water, rub it we'll with the
soap and especially rub the spots with

see no traces of dirt.
a good idea, particularly in the
winter time when the washing of win
dows Is always unpleasant work, is
to frequently wipe off the inside of
the glass with dry cloth. 1t is sur
prising to find how much dirt and
dust can be removed. In washing the
windows ii little MASKING soda and
a tablespoonful of alcohol are added
to each pail Of water the glass will
be much brighter. and, of course, ev-
cry one knows that newspapers make
the best window polishers.
In every kitchen there should be a
very high chair and very low one.
Economy of strength is true wisdom
on the part of worker, and much
standing and constant fatigue-and
sometimes actual illness-may be
avoided by the use of proper chairs.
Plain ironing, mixing of buildings and
many other tasks may be done as we'll
when sitting on high chair or stool
as when standing; and the low chair
Is useful for sitting in to shell peas
or string currants, when it is con-
venient to have bowl in ones lap,
and another bowl OF basket on the
floor beside one.
To wash laces make a suds with
naptha soap and tepid water, put the
laces in it and let them soak for half
an hour; then souse them around and
squeeze between the hands to get the
water out. Make fresh suds, souse
iaces around again, but do not rub
lest you break the meshes; squeeze.
then rinse in two waters, with a few
drops Of dissolved gum arabic in the
last water. If the lace is cream or
ecru add few drops of orange dye
to the last water. or, if pure white, a
few drops of bluing. Spread on a
sheet to dry; when nearly dry pull
gently into shape and roll from one
end, keeping edges even; then wrap
In a damp cloth and let lie for half
an hour and press with not too hot
iron.

When china is very dirty it should
