SOME SUGGESTIONS
FOR THE HOUSEWIFE.

Cat-tail seeds make good. soft filling for
couch cushions and 1t is claimed that no
insect will infest them.
In cooking sweet apples for pies they
should be mixed with raisins or the pie
will be almost tasteless.
Bright colors prevail in the new china
ware, even the finer qualities, and the
dishes are low; cups. pitchers. tureens and
the like are shallow and broad.
When FASTING leather post cards to a
surface to which it is desired to make
them adhere firmly glue mixed with glyc-
crime makes an admirable paste.
A thin dress may be clean but rather
fimsy in appearance from frequent wear
ings. BY dampening the dress on the
wrong side with a weak solution of water
In which there is a little gum arabic. iron
ing while damp, the dress will look like
new.
If oil is spilled on a carpet Immediately
scatter cornmeal over 1t and the oil will
be absorbed. Oil that has soaked into a
carpet may be taken out by laying a thick
piece of blotting paper over 1t and press
ing with a hot %hatiron; repeat the opera
tion, using a fresh piece of paper each
time.
Ink stains will come out with salts of
lemon. Rub the salts over the spot after
wetting 1t slightly with water. Repeat the
process every Few minutes, rubbing well
n rinsfns in cold water until the marks
have disappeared. Some ink stains are
very obstinate and do not yield as readily
as others,
Block magnesia, such as is used for
cleaning hats ano gowns, is also useful in
the kitchen for restoring the ulster to dull
silver. Applied with a soft cotton cloth,
1t imparts a beautiful brilliancy to the ar
ticles 50 treated.
An ingenious woman who likes to dis
play her Towering plants on little teak
wood stands made doilies for the flower
holders of white oilcloth, pinked on the
edges and decorated In the center with
floral motifs. The latter were cut from
wall papersor magazines. applied with gum
arabic and then treated to a coating of
white varnish. These mats stand washing
with soap and water.
An authority on household matters says
that if new tinware be rubbed over with
fresh lard and thoroughly heated in the
oven before II is used 1t will never rust
afterward, no matter how much it is put
in water. For stained tinware borax pro-
duces the best results. If a teapot or
coffee pot Is discolored on the inside boil
it in n strong solution of borax for a
short time and all its brightness will re-
turn.

GARDEN AND CRADLE.

When our babe he goeth walking in his
garden.
Around his tinkling feet the sunbeams
play.
The posies they are good to him,
And bow them as they should to him,
As fareth he upon his kingly way;
And birdlings OF the wood to him
Make music gentle music. all the day,
When our babe he goeth walking in his
garden.
when our babe he goeth swinging in his
cradle.
Then the night it looketh ever sweetly
down:
The little stars are kind to him,
Tie moon she hath a mind to him,
and laveth on his head a silver crown:
And singeth then the win to him
A song. the gentle long of Bethle'm
town.
When our babe he goeth swinging in his
crndlc Eugene Field.

THE WAY ONE NET
WAIST WAS TRIMMED.

There are countless pretty ways for
trimming plain net waists, yet nothing
more becoming than a method seen this
week. The yoke and collar were made of
allover lace with rose applique as a yoke
edging. Below the pointed yoke were
bands of picot-edged white ribbon, one
half inch wide, which crossed in, a pretty
design down the center front. The cuffs
were composed Of ribbon bands. Between
the ribbon insertion was a touch of hand
work, as the net was beautifully worked
with white silk floss, the design being a
slender tendril with small berries. The
full part Of the short sleeve was similar to
the cuffs. The idea was original and de,
cidedly cleN er.

work to do. It's nearly time tic leave
the house, and you have not as yet put
on your collar or belt, or eaten your
breakfast. So, with a tiny little sigh,
you tuck away your memories in a
convenient corner. to be pulled out at
your first leisure moment, and start to
think hard of what is before you.
There are many good thing; about

the pleasure it gives you long after 1t

filled with bright pictures, and you
have but to wish and they are spread

Cormoranh.

Coimorants are fur the largest and
most striking in appearance OF tile
common English sea fowl. A male
cormorant Is Il yard long and very
strong and heavy, and. though more
quaint than beautiful, whether flying,
diving or sitting on the rocks or buoys,
it is far more interesting creature
than the sea gull, a wonderful instance
of adaptation of form to special needs
and of permanence of type enduring
from remote ages. for the fossil cor
morant hardly differs from those which
are now fishing from the cliffs in which
their petrfied ancestors are imbedded.
Our common great black cormorant'
is not only the most representative
type of his family, but a link with the
inhabitants OF the shallow seas of both
the old and new worlds. He Is found
throughout Europe. in north Africa,
Egypt and the greater part of Asia. in
eastern North America and. a little
changed by distance, in New Zealand
and Australia. Lastly, he Is the only
bird, except the hawks and falcons.
which is trained to assist man in the
capture of living prey, and in this vo-
cation he is Of all birds. by sense, men,
DRY and affection, incomparably the

"JULlUS CAESAR"
eN-harleS 3. HanfOId as "r1arC Antony"
at the Grand Next Monday.

The plav OF Julius Caesar" in which
6 Charles B. Hanford will appear at the
Grand Theater on Monday, March IS, is
. zee which presents such variety OF OPP
rsartunities that every legitimate actor
s1rds in it stellar part. Some OF the
za-eat players select the role of "BIutus"
..rg the one best calculated to display
gsheir powers. Others choose the more
s-snbtly and intellectual "Cassius." Chas.
%. Hanford makes the eloquent "Marc
Antony" the central figure. Several
reasons lead MIR. Hanford to that choice.
-WAen he played the part with the
Booth Barrett combination he scored an
instantaneous hit. When he decided to
Engage in starring tour he was closely
identtied with the part in the public
% mind. To have selected either OF the
other roles would have been to challenge
comparison with two men whose great
meess made them Incompatible and it
would also have compelled another play.
GER to assume the part with which Mr..
sIanford had become brilliantly identi-
lied. Fortunately for Mr.. Hanford's de.
termination, Marc Antony is the sym.
pathetic hero OF the play. His personal
grace, nis loyal affection to the memory
..af dead friend, his impetuous yet we'll
directed eloquence all combine to make
him the idol OF the modern multitude as
a.le WAS Of the populace in Rome. The
spcincipal feminine role "Portia" will be
assumed by Miss Marie Drolnah who
Las so long been conspicuous favorite
