glove of that size. She wears 6h."

chaser, but she would never forgive
me IL l bought the right number.
When buying gloves for a woman you
must always, IL you wish to retain her
love and respect, get them two or
three sizes too small. She would hold
an eternal grudge against you IL you
let her know that you thought her
hand as large as it really is. / once

COCIETY here and in Virginia is
~ deeply interested in a rumor from
London to the effect that Miss Nora
Langhorne, youngest of the five hand
some daughters of C. d. Langhorne
of Albemarle county, Va, has cap
tured the heart and received an offer
OF the hand Of Prince Francis of Teck,
tive good-looking brother of the prin-
cess of Wales.
That Prince Francis family were
willing that he should marry a
wealthy American has been known
for some time, but Miss Langhorne
has not a great fortune. Her brother
in-law, Waldorf Aston, and the lat
ter's father, William Waldorf Astor,
however, have more money than they
know what to do with and are said
10 be heartily in favor of an alliance
that would place them in the inner
most circle of English society, which,
as is well known, has not taken very
kindly to the elder Astor. The latter
is already reaping the benefit of the
popularity of his daughter-in-law, who
was Miss Mamie Langhorne and who
at the time of her marriage to young
Waldorf Astor was Mrs. Shaw, having
married and divorced Robert Gould
Shaw of Boston in surprisingly
short time after leaving the school
room. 1t was under her chaperonage

MISS NORA LANGHORNE
MAY BECOME PRINCESS

that Miss Nora Langhorne made her
London debut last season and at once
attracted the admiration of the smart
world.
Should the alliance in question be
arranged, the Astors will receive full
credit for the match, as without a
handsome dot from them 1t would be
impossible for Prince Francis to think
seriously Of marrying the charming
Virglnian.
Miss Langhorne's sisters are all
handsome and popular matrons, just
as they were great southern bellies.
They are Mrs. r. Moncure Perkins OF
Richmond, Mrs. Charles Dana Gibso-
of New York, Mrs. Reginald Brooks
of Boston, and Mrs. Waldorf Astor.
Their fathers estate. Mirado, in the
mountains of Albemarle county, has
been in the possession of the famil!
for many generations, and although
somewhat run down since the war
is still beautiful property.
Young Mr. Astor, who passed sew
eral weeks at Mirado last September
is said to be anxious to restore the
estate to it's condition before the war
when the grandfather of his bride was
the owner of 1000 slaves, and every
thing about the land and mansion
was kept in the highest state Of or

MAKES PRETTY PHOTO FRAME
Ornamental and Useful, and Easily
Made at Home.

Photo frames covered with embroid.
cred silk or linen are very dainty,
and they may be easily made at home,
or recovered where necessary. The
frame we show is covered with pale
grey satin worked with pink and
green silk.
The size of the frame must be regu-
lated by the size of the photo it is in
tended for. Stout cardboard is used
for the foundation. In it an opening
must be cut with a knife. Cut the
silk little larger than the founda-
ton, then work with the design
shown.
One or two strands of filoselle or
filo-flosse may be used for the work,
and two or three shades of each of
soft tones of pink and green. Four
tiny gold sequins are sewn in each
square or knot-stitches in gold silk
may be worked, If preferred.
When the embroidery is finished
the silk should be stretched over the
card. The edges must be shipped and
fixed at the back with seccotine. A
piece of glass must also be fixed by
seccotine behind the opening.
e For the back, cut another piece of
card like the front, except the open
ing is not required, cover with sateen;

petition among all the city students.
In all schools and colleges where
military science Is taught under fed
eral appropriation a strict course in
target work is compulsory. Regular
army officers are on duty at these in
situations. If the movement contin.
ues to grow it is hoped that shooting
ranges will be established in every
public school in the land.
While the presidents idea is gen.
orally approved, there are some per-
sons and some organizations very
much opposed to it. The Interparlia-

antagonizing the presidents pro-

TEACHING SCHOOL BOYS
TO SHOOT WITH RIFLES

ID RESIDENT ROOSEVELT'S ardent
wish to make America nation of
sharpshooters is in fair way of
realization. Shooting clubs are being
formed in the various states and are
procuring arms from the war depart
ment; agents are being sent to the
large cities for the purpose of in
structing the students in the public
schools how to load and sight rifles
so that the school boys may acquire
proficiency in the art of killing.
Not the least startling of the varied
progressive ideas incorporated in
President Roosevelt's last message to
congress was suggestion that rifles
be put in the hands of public school
boys and course in firing at targets
be included in the education of Amer
lean youths. This recommendation
was the final chapter in the presi-
dents message. apparently having
been added as an afterthought.
In the Washington schools a brisk
/. competition has been started to de-
termine the best marksman. The boys
are tested by firing the guns from
standing, kneeling and lying posi-
lions. The most expert pupils in the
different grades are to meet in COM

After Mrs. Dewey's marriage the X
street house was leased first TO the
late Senator Alger, and latterly to
Secretary Hitchcock. Mr.. Hitchcock
recently gave up the place, and i'm
mediately workmen began making re-
pairs and alterations. Their orders
were SO imperative that they worked
far into the night.
Mrs. Dewey's home in X street is
magnifcently furnished and it is said
that the Rhode Island avenue place
will be leased furnished. The X
street house was the home of Mrs.
Dewey during the lifetime of her first
husband, Gen. Hazen of the signal
service. Her X street house is much
nearer the residence of her mother.
and she likes that location better
than the house presented by the
American people to her husband. The
title to the Rhode Island avenue
house now stands is in Mrs. Dewey's
name.

2 A LLEGED Irregularities in the pur-
~ chase of dry colors for use in the
bureau of engraving and printing
have been brought to light through
which the government has paid about
100000 too much for its supplies.
Whether the irregularities are action
able or not is now under colsidera-
ton by United States Attorney Baker
of the District of Columbia.
The matter has been under investi-
CATION by the treasury department for
about year, and has been kept very
quiet. 1t finally transpired through
the publication of the hearings on the
sundry civil bill before the house COM
mittee on appropriations.
For several years the government
paid from As to 60 cents pound for
these colors. Concerns which had lost
in the bidding finally made charges
that something was wrong. 1t de-
veloped that the ink used was made
by a process invented by man in
the bureau. The government paid As
cents a pound for a hard black" and
as high as 65 cents pound for a
soft black" When the charges were
made last year, Director Sullivan of
the bureau made a personal investi-
cation of the manner In which the
color contracts were made, and found
that a satisfactory black could be pro-
duced for IL cents pound.
Thereupcn the price was reduced,
sqh the saving for the year was more
than s114,000. The color contracts
heretofore had been In charge Of the

ing; while another had her hair so be-
frizzed and becurled that she looked
more like toy terrier than a stenog-
rapher. You noticed, doubtless, that
the three / retained for examination
had plain clothes, neat and tidy-al-
though, perhaps, they might not be
considered in the first flight of fash
ion uptown, and the impression they
gave me was that of successful bust
ness women. Their hair was well
brushed, their collars lifted. their
shirtwaists set we'll and their belts
looked trim and trig; and l just guess
ed that their work would be like their
appearance-up-to-date, trim, trig and
businesslike throughout"
There is no one who should be more
careful or pay more attention to her
appearance than the business woman
of to-day. Good taste in dress cannot
assert itself just as conspicuously In
business garb as in dinner gown or
dressing frock. A well-fitted tailored
shirtwaist of some durable material
either linen or madras, ii wash ma
terials are liked; or one of mohair,
colleen poplin or plain dark taffeta
IL laundry bills are somewhat con
sideration-preferably with detacha.
BILE collar, since the collar soils SC
much sooner than the waist. Some ar
rangement or device to hold the shirt
waist and skirt together is necessary
to the trim and trig set around the
waist that the present fashion de
mands; and skirt we'll cut and short
enough to clear the floor all around
completes the costume. Where q
touch of color is liked, little butter
fly bow and ribbon belt to match
will serve to relieve the severity OF
the garb, without in the least detract
ing from the suitably plain appearance
Of the design. For example, very
pretty dark blue mohair shirtwaisi
suit is furnished with sets of cravai
and belt. Some are in plaid ribbons
some In pale-blue velvet ribbon, while
little made bow tie is matched in q
belt of bias armure of brilliant tone
of scarlet, which well sets off the som
Der tints of the dark blue and does not
look in the least out of place, since
the little touch of color Is but a mere
hint.

WAISTS FOR THE SUMMER.
coors Are to the Fore in Some of the
Prettiest Shades.

The planning of the summer outfit
naturally includes several sheer lin
gerie waists, both in color and white,
for colors are again to the fore in the
most irresistible shades. If there is
time in the daily life of the girl of the
period that she can devote to the max
ing of these dainty bits of finery,
many pretty effects can be evolved
that cannot be bought ready-made, or
even be gained satisfactorily by or
dering. With a deep pointed yoke, at
front and back alike. forms of squares
between lace insertions and embroid-
cry in the middle of each square, is
one of the easiest ways to make an
elaborate and effective blouse, for IL
the embroidery is handwork, the de-
sign can be trailed across the lace
insets. This design can also be done
in contrasting color, and any color on
white is particularly chic this season.
Should there not be time to do the en-
broidery by hand. or funds to - :.
having it done, solution of tie DIS.

FluHino the Hair.

To make the hair fluffy, when put.
ting it up on curriers' use the following
lotion: Take of gum arabic. one
ounce; good moist sugar, one-half
ounce; pure hot water, three-quarters
pint Dissolve. When this solution
is cold, add alcohol, two fluid ounces
sal-ammoniac, six grains each. The last
two should be dissolved in the alcohol
before admixture. Lastly, add enough
water to make the whole measure
one pint Perfume with cologne or
lavender water. Moisten the hair
with the fluid before putting IL ir
paper or pins.
