APT SUGGESTIONS.

Celery is a nerve tonic; so are onions.
When the hands are sore and blistered
wash them in fresh buttermilk and allow
it to dry on the skin, as it aids in whiten-
ing it.
A good cooling powder for perspiring
feet is composed of four parts of taloum
powder and one part of boracic acid thor
ougly mixed.
A few drops of any good toilet water in
the last rinsing water gives a faint sug-
gestion of perfume to the hair that Is very
refreshing.
Oatmeal in the bath water will impart a
velvety softness to the skin. To avoid
stopping the wastepipe tie the oatmeal In
a good-sized cheesecloth bag.
A simple metho of softening hard water
for the toilet is to throw orange peel into
the ath or jug. Not only will the peel
will perfume the water d~eliciously.
Before going out anoint the complexion
with a good cold cream, forcing into the
pores all they will accept. Then dust the
surface with a good powder. BY doing this
and by wearing a brown or red veil sun
burn can be prevented.
Where the bones are small and well
shaped a woman may we'll hope TO make
her arms beautiful with less trouble than
almost any other members of the bodv
OF course, the skin should be white. TO
insure this, it must be protected bv long

is different, and some effective means

But I do not mean this type. I refer to
the child who is anxious enough to get on
ana who Plugs away at his books like a
good fellow, but who accomplishes little
or nothing, in spite of his efforts.
This child should be encouraged as much
as possible, for if once he gains the idea
that he is not bright he is apt to lose his
self-respect and give up trying.
Nobody thinks I can do nothin', so
what's the use of tryin' ?" asked such a

WITH NEEDLE AND THREAD.

In making bands on children's underwear
1t is a good idea to allow an inch at each
end to turn back before making the button
hole, as thism makes the band much stronger
and there will be less tearing of the gar
ments.
The modern trousseau Is not complete
without what is called a lingerie cover,
made of the finest cambria, exquisltely
embroidered by hand and frilled by valen-
ciennes lace. In some cases a broad sash of
ribbon is threaded through the lace above
the hem of the cover and tied at the four
corners In large bows. The maid makes
use of the covers when she spreads out her
mistress's lingerie ready to be put on, and
when 1t is folded up for the night the cover
is thrown over It,.
A pretty carriage robe for summer use Is
made of fine dotted white swiss, made over
a pink foundation and lined with a thin
sheet of cotton wadding. The robe can be
ruf1ed with swiss and edged with lace, or
finished around the edge with a small pink
and white silk cord.

A receptacle for carrying your rubbers
when travelling Is useful. 1t is a bag made
of denim or some other heavy material,
with a lining of rubber cloth. It opens
lengthwise and has a strap by which it
may be fitted. In this way your rubbers
take up no more room than when wrapped
in paper and there is no danger of their
solling articles In your bag.
A revival of the old-fashioned cross
stitch embroidery has begun and lovely dec
orative effects may be evolved by any one
with the artistic sense. A graceful design
is the first requisite and material not too
stif for the background. With one or two
soft-colored c%ottons, woods or silks. II Is no
great piece Of work to turn out a charming
curtain, table cover, sideboard scarf az
other bit Of household linen. An effective
combination is in dull green. with pale blue
flower motives, but everything depends
upon the blended shade and the simple
lines OF the patterns. Any child can do the
stitches, and apart from rather careful
counting 10 balapce the ccgner and motifs,
cross-stitch is among the easiest kinds Of
embroidery. A recent exhibition in Boston
surprised people by the antiquity ana
beauty Of samples Of this artistic work.

THE D0INGS OF WOMEN.

No women are admitted to the Royal
Academy In England, they having been
ruled out after a few had gained admit
lance. the plea being that they were not
capable of instructing the male students.
Since then they have been admitted to the
schools.
Not only do Englishwomen run their
own farms, but they have their own
stock shows. The Woman's Agricultural
and Horticultural Union has been having
an exhibit. II is the first of its kind ever
held. and no doubt the American woman
farmer will follow the reports with in
terest.
The Countess of Oxford, once Miss
Louise Corbin. of New York, was the
only American at the recent garden party
given by the Princess of Wales. Neither
the prince nor princess are as fond of
Americans as the king, and do not invite
them to their parties, their guests being
of the very exclusive set only.
The Ladies' Park Club. Of London, one
of the exclusive organizations of that
city, has decided that members may
neither smoke cigarettes nor play bridge.
The rules will be strictly enforced. The
house has 100 rooms, of which sixty are
bedrooms. There is a tiny smoking room,
but its use is to be exclusively for gentle
men guests.
The older women of this generation will
remember the name of Ida Lewis, who be-
came known as the Grace Darling OF
America because of her heroic saving of
human lives while she was her fathers
assistant at Lime Rock lighthouse In
Newport harbor. She has recently reached
the fiftieth anniversary of her connection
with that lighthouse. When her father
the keeper, became paralytic she attended
to the light. After his death she was
made keeper by a special act Of Congress
because Of her great service in saving
so many persons from drowning. Five OF
these eighteen persons were United Staff
'soidiers stationed at Fort Adams. She
hes been honored by Presidents and
famous people. has received medals and
trophies of all kind for her brave deeds,
and the lighthouse has been visited by
thousands OF people from all parts Of the
country just to see this courageous
woman. She Is nov about rs years Of age
