For the fluffy neck ruches plain
tulle and the ring-dot net are favorite
materials, and, although fancy prices
are asked for these ruches in the fash

stores, they can be made at home at a
fraction of the expense. Such a ruche
is sketched in the drawing, the model

OF brown tulle mounted on a stiffened
silk band, and finished by silk loops
and bows in front.
Another very pretty model was
made of black ring-dot net, four deep
pllsse frills being used, with another
OF tulle next the face. A cluster of
black silk peoples with yellow centers
was tucked among the tulle in the
front, which was finished with many
ribbon loops and ends of black velvet
and net.
Another very odd run was also
made of ring-dot net. each ruff1e being
bordered with satin ribbon. On the
ribbon at intervals were set little sat

COSTLY RAZORS.

Some Gold Handled That Sell tor $5o
Handles Of Silver and Ivory.
If man were content to shave him
self with razor having hard rub
Der handle, as indeed most men are.
he could buy one with a blade of ex
cellent quality for dollar; but there
are razors far more expensive than
this,
Thus there are sold razors with han
dies OF 10 karat gold. and of plain
smooth finish that bring $50 each-a
pair of such razors in a plain silver
box can be bought for $500.
But $50 is not the limit of what one
may pay for a gold-handled razor. II
the handle were deliberately chased its
cost might mount up to twice that, or
5000 for pair.
There are also silver among those
which range in price for from $3.50 to
$50 each; $3.50 being the price for
one with a plain silver handle, while
those more costly have their handles
more or less deliberately chased or
carved.
A man who did not altogether like
a hard rubber handled razor might
find his fancy suited with one having
a handle of ivory, and an ivory han
died razor need not necessarily be ex-
pensive;-a razor. with a plain ivory
handle can be bought for 81 OF course
any carving would add to the cost.
Costly razors are unusually sold. for
gifts.

JOURNEY OF A TREE ROOT.
Eucalyptus Sends Shoots Up Over a
Mall n CowAr

Eucalyptus Sends Shoots Up Over a
Wall to a Sewer.
From Santa Barbara, Cal, there
comes a story of a most interesting
freak of vegetable life. which is strict
~ vouched for
Through certain garden there ran
some years ago Il sewer made of red
wood timber. This sewer was again
cased by an outside sewer. Across the
sewer there was built brick wall
many feet high, and in such way that
it was pierced by the inner sewer,
which it inclosed tightly. while the out
er sewer ended abruptly against the
wall
The outside sewer casing had in
course of time decayed and eucalyp-
tus tree, standing some sixty feet
away, had taken advantage Of this and
sent one of its roots to the coveted
spot in as direct line as possible.
Here the root entered the outside
sewer and followed it's course as far as
which shut off its course, and it could
go no farther, the inside sewer being
perfectly tight.
But on the other side Of the wall
the sewer and it's double casing con-
tinued, and this eucalyptus tree evil
IDENTIFY knew how to get there.
Some three feet high I'm the brick
wall there was little hole an inch Or
two in diameter, and this the eucalyp-
tus tree was aware of, as it's big root
began to climb the dry wall and face
the sun and wind until it found the
hole, through which it descended on
the other side and entered the sewer
again and followed it as formerly
How did the tree know Of the hole
in the wall? How did it know that
the sewer was on the other side? How
could it direct the root to go and find
the place with such precision? The
roots of any plant grow always and
unerringly in the direction of it's food,
just as the eucalyptus tree did.
