sin Her Maiden Initials.

Wedding presents are still most
properly marked with the brides maid
en- initials, Notwithstanding current va
carries to use the initials of the
bridegroom.
NO. said a jeweler, 'we observe no
tendency to change this established
custom. Now and then some one pre-
fers to have the brides future initials
engraved This has always been done
to a very slight extent. 1t marks no
new fancy. But, with few exceptions,
we still mark all wedding presents with
the maiden initials of the bride; and
this is still, for anything we know to
the contrary, generally conceded to be
the correct mode"

ing consumed in the process. With the
aid of the comb shown here the hair
can be dried in less than half an hour.
In the handle is a metallic tube, which
extends to the end of the comb. With
in the handle is a small battery for
electricity, the latter circulating
through the tube to the teeth of the
comb. The teeth are perforated to
allow the heat thus generated to es-
cape and enter the hair when the comb
is being used. A heating element is
placed with the tube to properly hold
and distribute the heat. 1t is surpris-
ing how quickly the hair can be dried
with the aid of this comb. The heat is
forced close to the scalp, the most
difficult and the hardest part of the
hair to dry thoroughly.

The Piano..

If a good piano receives proper care
it's value increases with use. 1t be-
comes more mellow, more responsive
and richer even in appearance. Avoid
placing a piano near the window, as
the varying temperatures which neces-
sarily exist in such a position are in
furious to the strings. Be careful, too,
that you do not have one end Of the
instrument near a fire and the other
end near a window or door When a
room has become very cold do not heat
it too quickly, but increase the heat
gradually.

The American Analysis gives the
following test for the detection in an
apartment of sewer gas: Saturate
unglazed paper with a solution of one
troy ounce of pure acetate of lead in
eight fluid ounces of rain water; let
it partially dry, then expose in the
room suspected of containing sewer
gas. The presence of gas in any con-
siderable quantity soon blackens the

1t is one of the fads Of fall to have
the facing of your hat match your hair.
The bandeau is also the color of the

covering the bandeau is likewise 4 close
match to the coiffure. This is par
ticularly becoming fad, for it does away
