New Use for Potatoes.

A recipe which is efficacious for
cleaning fabric without injuring their
texture or changing their color is the
following, which is also good for clean
ing rugs and carpets. Crate two raw
potatoes in a basin which contains
pint Of clear cold water. Now strain
them through sieve, allowing the Ii

which it may be washed in clear water

A New Wrinkle in Photography.

The main secret OF success with a
telephoto is absolute rigidity, which
can be secured by using a firm tri-
pod, propping up the front OF the
camera with stick or brace and
sheltering it from the wind. The
proper exposure in bright sunshine
is about one-half second with the
lens wide open. Sometimes one can
secure jus. as good pictures by en-
ploying a single member OF a large
doublet, and enlarging the picture at
home. Yet II the telephoto Is ham

pictures. though there Is lack OF
depth OF focus. The time was when
/ had almost given up in despair the
securing OF first class pictures with
this cum bersome arrangement, but
my courage has revived, as during
the season Just passed have secured
with Il some Of my best pictures
particularly when IL was used from
a sheltered place. in concealment.-

Our Voices Deepen.

The primitive inhabitants OF Eu-
rope were all tenors; their descend
ants OF the present time are BARI
tones, and future generations will
have semibass voices. The voice
has a tendency TO deepen with age.
The tenor OF twenty becomes the
baritone OF twenty-eight and the
bass OF thirty-six. The inferior races
have higher pitched voices than the
more cultured. The negro has a
higher voice than the white man.
Among white races the fair complex
toned man has higher voice than
bis darker skinned brother. The for
mer is usually a baritone or a tenor.
the latter a contralto or bass. IL Is
asserted that tenors are usually OF
slender build, whereas basses are
stout, but there are too many excep-
tions TO such rule for IL TO be re-
liable. The same remark applies TO
the statement that thoughtful men
have deep-toned voices and vice
versa. The tones OF voice are per-
ceptibly higher before than after
meal, for which reason tenors are
generally careful not 10 sing too sooD
after dinner.-PearsoD's Weekly.

Fitted Lining.

The plain fitted basque or lining
makes the foundation for SO many
blouses and waists that its uses are
almost numberless. Here is one that
can be utilized In an infinite variety
of ways and that is cut TO give the
latest and most fashionable lines to
the figure. When such a lining or
basque is fitted exactly to the figure
il becomes an easy matter TO cut, fit
and arrange almost any sort OF over
blouse or drapery upon this founda-
ton and wise women, bearing this
fact in mind, are careful that a per-
fectly fitting one shall always be at
hand. In the illustration the basque
is made with high neck and long
sleeves and is closed at the front, but
IL can be made TO close at the back,
it can be cut out to form low, round
or square neck or the half low or
square neck, il can be cut longer or
shorter over the hips and allows OF
the three lengths of sleeves, so that
really every possible contingency is
provided for. All lining materials
