Girls Who Assist In the Small House,
hold Duties.
Most OF the little things that a girl
can attend to are the tasks which her
mother has in mind, but is too busy to
carry out. She can see that the house
plants are watered every day, and she
can cut a blossom now and then for
the table. She can plant a few pansy
roots in one Of her candy boxes, lined
with oil paper, and set it on a small
platter in the middle of the dining ta-
BILE for a centerpiece.
She can remove the spots that her
mother is too busy to take out of the
tablecloth between launderings by put
ting few drops Of hot or cold water,
as the case may require, on them. She
can keep a little parsley bed of her
own. so that meats and vegetables can
come to the table with a fresh garnish.
Keeping the rugs in the living room
straight can be one of her tasks; also
seeing that the window shades are all
raised to the same height. When the
furniture gets a slight scar she can rub
it off with beeswax, a trick which
keeps furniture fresh, but which her
mother may not have time for.
She can see that the front door plate,
the electric light switches and the door
knobs all over the house are kept pol
ished. The smooches on mirrors can be
rubbed off with a piece of crumpled
tissue paper.
She can make a pretty wastebasket
for the living room or any room that
needs one out of strong cardboard COW
cred with wall paper or chintz, and she
can see that the younger children use
it. Pieces Of her cotton dresses she can
make into covers for the sofa pillows
which will be tossed about in the ham
mock and on the porch this summer.
Mothers and fathers like to see their
daughters appear domestic in these
days, when girls have so many outside
interests, and any girl can charm her
father by wearing a tiny white apron
around the house. 1t needs be only a
mans handkerchief with ribbon strings,
but it will please her father and pro-
tect her dress. Wearing an apron is
only one way of. appearing freshly
Numbered and bright, which is the big
gest part of being a real ornament to
ones home.

FEMININE VANITY.

Feminine vanity is not the product

The Jewish and Egyptian women

In the artifcialities Of the toilet. When
Jezebel learned Of the approach Of
Jehu she sought 70 enhance her charms
by painting her face and blackening
her eyes with antlmony.

herself in a splendid VEIL In whose
voluminous folds she concealed her

the empire dyed their hair blond. red
and even blue, according TO the caprice
Of the moment They used cosmetics
Of every kind to excess and, like the
Moorish women. augmented the luster
Of their eyes by means of antimony
They also penciled their eyebrows with
a bodkin blackened in the smoke Of
frankincense.
Wealthy women bathed In asses
milk and slept with their faces poul-
ticed with bread STEPPED in asses milk
in order to efface wrinkles. Even
poets sang the praises of certain cos

Roman ladies 1t was the fashion TO be

deemed arlstocratic. To attain this
desirable pallor a quantity of chalk
