Since those extra little pillows have
become so frequently met with as q
part OF bed furnishings pine and laven-
der pillows have both become more
popular.
Both Of them when made for bed
are incased In strong muslin covers,
over which the pretty little white slip
Is drawn.
For couches, Of course, darker and
more serviceable materials are used,
often for pine pillows deep yellow,
embroidered, in simple outline stitch,
in brown or deep bronze greens. For
lavender light lavender, embroidered
In darker shade, or one Of the pretty
white cretonnes. covered with blossoms
and stripes Of lavender, makes an at
tractive covering. says Woman's Life.
If you are going away and can
squeeze just one more thing into your
trunk, tuck one Of the regular baby pill
lows in. The pillows where you are
staying may be stuffy and hard, and
that little pillow is just the thing for u
hammock or for the nap that you take
in the old orchard stretched out upon
rug or steamer blanket, or 1t may add
much to the peace Of your nightly
slumbers.

HOUSEHOLD NOTES.

Never fill lamp quite full, or when
it is brought into a warm room the ex-
pansion Of the Oil will cause it to over
flow, and the result will be decidedly
unpleasant.
Soda used in the laundry should be
dissolved before the garments to be
washed are placed in the tub. Yellow
stains, which soon form holes, are
caused by soda touching wet linen.
Saucepans should be kept clean on
the outside as we'll as inside. To pre-
vent the smoke from sticking rub the
outside Of new saucepan with fat
before placing 1t on the stove. Wash
with hot water and soda.
If possible leave wet umbrella open
to dry SO that the silk will not rot or
crease. II 1t cannot be left open, turn
1t upside down, so that the moisture
will not collect at the ferrule end and
so rot the silk while evaporating.
The colored frock or blouse that has
become faded with frequent launder-
ings or from wear in the sun may be
bleached to a clear white by boiling In
cream of tartar water. The correct
quantity to be used to make the gar
ment a pure white is a teaspoonful Of
the powder to quart of water.

The programme for the Olympic

The programme includes everything
almost, from pitch and toss to balloon
~-scing. The main attraction for Amer
vaasans will be the track and field sports.
.Exr here the Yankees will have the
strongest representation. But, after
All, the contests selected will not be
so thoroughly British as was thought
some time ago, and the list is fairly
aan all round programme. Such events
as the standing high and broad jumps.
throwing the fifty-six pound weight
and the 300 yard low hurdles are not
included. Yet withal the jumpers,
hurdlers and weight throwers will have
a good opportunity to exhibit their

Rouers After Hackenschmidt.

Should Joe Rogers, wrestler and
6ghter, who sailed recently for Eng
land with his manager, Tom O'Rourke.
.sas successful in securing a match with
George Hackenschmidt the contest will
ne the first OF series of international
q contests on the mat. Hackenschmidt
announced recently that he intends to
come to America and take on Frank
~1Cotch and any others who are plead
ing for match with him.
The Russian Lion" is the champion
wrestler Of the world, but O'Rourke
: snd Rogers are both confident that the
tstter is the better wrestler, and they
. are determined to make desperate
4 effort to bring the championship back
with them.
Rogers is bigger man than Hacken-
schmidt. The American weighs 245
.sponnds when in condition for a wres-
Ting match, and Hackenschmidts
: weight is 220. But it is doubtful II
-SG3ogers is as strong as the Russian
Lion" Both men know pretty much
each others style, for 1t was
T Thile training Hackenschmidt that

PHONE ETIQUETTE.
The Undisnified "HeIIo" Seems 70
Have Como to Stay.

The Undisnified "Hello" Seems 10
Have Como to Stay.
How do you ever stop converse
ton with a girl over the telephoneT
asked a worried young man the other
day. "Grace Y. called me up last
evening to tell me that she had heard
from somebody l was interested In,
and then we talked along in a deSul-
tory way, while was wondering how
[ was ever going to get into my dress
suit and call for Ethel In time for the
opera, and Ethel dotes on the over
ture. I didn't think 1t was my place to
say 'goodby,' and Grace evidently had
nothing pressing on hand and felt So
ciable, and there l was. At last she
seemed to reflect that might have
something to do besides gossip with
her and she rang Off, but l was fifteen
minutes late at Ethel's. The matter
was not made better with her when
explained that 1 had been detained by
Grace at the telephone"
1t Is the place Of the young lady to
stop the conversation. The younger
should always wait for the elder Of
two men or two women to end 1t.
And beware how you call the name
OF your unseen friend until you are
sure. The other day a young man re-
sponded to ring and, after mo-
ment's talk, exclaimed, How good In
you, Emma, to call me up" Colby
came the rejoinder, This Is not En-
ma; 1t is Gertrude" Strained relations
marked the rest of the interview.
The undlgnified Hello" seems to
have come to stay. Nothing better has
been proposed In place Of 1t, but when
we can substitute Good morning" or
"Good evening" let us do so.

Hints For Church and Quiet Homo
Ceremonies.
When a bride Is married In travel
ing dress, the number of bridesmaids
should be limited to one.
II the bride goes away on her we'd
ding journey right from the church,
friends do not expect to be invited to
the reception.
Only the nearest relatives and few
intimate friends receive invitations to
the reception II 1t is to be a small one.
The bridal bouquet may be dispensed
with and a prayer book carried or not,
as desired.
There Is no rule against either bride
or bridesmaid carrying bouquet.
Whether she does or not Is merely
matter Of personal inclination on her
part.
The custom Of proposing healths at
the wedding breakfast or tea has al
most died out. In any case only those
Of the bride, bridegroom and brides
maids are proposed.
The bride provides her trousseau ami
her presents to the bridegroom. These
are her only expenses.
Her father pays for flowers to deco
rate the church. IL any are used. He
also pays the choir If the service Is q
musical one and provides the carpet
and awning that are used on the path
