the Question Box of the best way to clean
it. 1t has number Of fine shirrings in

Fill small bowl with gasoline and place
the girdle in the fluid, letting 1t soak for
about fifteen minutes. Then rub the badly
soiled places between the fingers, rinse In
clean gasoline iand hang in the open air

Do not use the gasoline near any kind

be washed safely with warm water and

salt has been added, to set the colors, and

LATEST STYLES
IN LINGERIE.

Fashion continues to accent the SLIM
waisted. full-bust and slender-hip figure,
so the lingerie tendency is toward gar
ments cut so as to eliminate every pos
sible fulness around the waist and hips.
It Is for this reason that soft, sheer ma
terials. such as nainsoolz, batiste and
crystalline are more and more favorably
regarded in the better-priced garments
For women who are inclined to stout
ness the combination garment is great
assistant in preserving the youthful out
lines The favorite combination garment
ist the corset cover and short skirt; then
the corset cover and drawers. and then
the corset cover and long skirt.
Flat effects for ornamentation are the
most desirable. They consist of erbroi-
derry and lace used in msdalltons. in bead
ing and in insertion. The wide enbro-
dered fiounce reaching to the knee is the
most favored style for white petticoats.
This is always completed with three7

An Illustration.

And now, | suppose, you would like
to know What prompted the above train
of thought. was reading in this morn
ings paper of young woman who
Tilted a man at the very altar, because
he had been unfaithful to her before
marriage. He had already said the
fateful Yes" and the minister was
reading the form to which she was to
respond, when, instead of asserting,
she replied, as l have told you, and
then ran down the aisle, veil flying, to
her mother.
1t served him right, not only to be
Tilted, but to be Tilted publicly, for it
gave every one there an opportunity to
know just why it was done, where, If
she had broken the engagement before
the day of the wedding, there would
have been unlimited talk But, aside
from that, if a man proves untrue to
q maid after pledging his word Of
honor to be loyal, and receiving from
her the promise tol lbe his helpmate and
companion through this life and the
next, he deserves the worst treatment
he can get and the more public his
punishment is the better.
The world is getting better since
women are becoming more independent.
1 think the reason the majority Of
men are against women's suffrage is
because they do not want to be seen as
they really are. MOLLIE.

Mothers, what are you doing to pro-
mote the domestic education of your
daughters?
Are you instilling into their minds
the necessity of being good housewives,
no matter what their station in life?
The mother of daughters is neglect
ing her duty if she does not bring each
one up to fill a certain niche in the
household, assigning to each certain
little duties which will occupy short
time when their schooldays are past,
and fit them in every respect to under
take the management of household
of their own at some future time.
While the care of a household is alb
an essential study, 1t need not
be pursued to the exclusion of every
kind of intellectual and artistic culture.
A girl will not make any the worse
puddings for being able to translate a
proposition in French. Neither will she
darn stocking more clumsily because
she happens to have a good voice and
knows how to sing.
Some girls incline more easily to ono
kind of work than another. But each
will realize, IL it is carefully explained
toAthem, how necessary it IS that each
branch of domestic work should be at
tended to. and 1t is often good plan
to arrange that the daughters should
be on duty in the several departments
of the home for a month at a time,
and then Interchange.
No greater mistake can be made
than allowing girls whose school days
are over to idle and lounge about at
home. If they are not Obliged to earn
their own living teach them how to
manage house.
Some day they will bless you for it.
