If the pattern to be stenciled is to be
a lighter color than the ground. oil
paints will give the best results. Fol
light colored materials where the de-
sign is to be darker than the ground
water colors or chemical dyes are pref
erabie. They are fresh and transpar

material, as is the case with the more

thus treated have been applied the
fabric should be pressed on the wrong
side with a hot iron. This will make
the colors fast
In stencilins pillow covers dyes are
the best coloring agent to use.
If oil paints are to be used they
should be thinned with turpentine
Mix the paints in deep saucer or old
cup and try the colors on a sample
of the material before going ahead
with the work.
If more than one color is to be used
on a single pattern it is best to have
a separate brush for each color.
Remember that the colors should
harmonize we'll and not be too strik
ing. The soft. subdued tones are the
most satisfactory.
In working with dyes some have
found It advantageous to add a little
mucilage to the dyes after they have
been mixed with boiling water This
will not be necessary IL the worker
is skilliul.
Use only little color at q time OIL
the brush, so that it will not run OF

If the brush is too wet the color vii
run and spoil the design.
A broad, fiat bristle brush should
be used and the color be applied moi

name is Max Darewski, and he Is
real prodigy. Not very long ago Max
Darewski conducted an orchestra OF
5000 performers in the great Crystal
palace. near London. and never made
mistake. When lie was only five years
old he composed waltz, LIE Reve.
which has been played by hundreds OF
orchestras. Next he composed march
called "Englands Crown" He is as
busy and as successful with his music
as If lie were thirty years old instead
of ten. But this wonderful boy has Il
favorite recreation. and that Is playing
with and teaching his dog. q beautiful
creature Of the Dalmatian breed. Inc
dogs name is Reve, after MaX's hrst
waltz. The word ''reve" is French. sig

Reve so many tricks that he knows al.

Bear in mind always that practically
every expense in connection with the
! wedding belongs either to the bride or
her parents, and often it is necessary
to consider how limited amount can
best be laid out.
To arrange not an altar. but spe-
cial part Of the room or hall. where the
clergyman and bridal party stand, is
easily done. For this a few ferns and
palms may be hired for a small sum
and grouped together to form i back
ground. Should tables or stands be
| required they may be covered with
white cotton.
One bride. whose house wedding was
so pretty that her friends have remem.

herself and the bridegroom by laying
on the floor piece Of carpeting about
six feet long rolled twelve inches deep.
Over this was placed a white fur rug
The effect was charming. and the pad.
ding was comfortable for the knees.
Cut flowers Of course add greatly to
the charm of the room, and at SUM-
mer wedding blossoms of the season
are not expensive.
The flowers carried by the bride and
her attendant, If she has one, are sup
piled by the bridegroom.
If the wedding is a small one and II

bride elect, must be sent In the, name
of her mother or guardian-that Is. the
girl to be married does not issue the In

her to do the writing she should say:

Many Places In the Household Where
They Are Utilized.
There are number Of ways in which

utilized If one will give the subject

sheet cut through the center it will De

sheets, by reason Of their softncss. conf
| bined with their substantial weave,
make excellent polishing cloths and
good undercovers for ironing boards.
Old cotton sheets make good bags
for inclosing gowns and coats In the
wardrobe. one large sheet being suf
ficient for two wardrobe bags. An old
sheet will cut up into severa! slips for
use on the pillows over the ticking. An.
| other plan is to take the best parts for
making sheets for cots and cribs, where
there are children. reservlng the very
thin portions for use as busters.
A large apron for covering the skirt
to be used for bedmaking can be made
| from half discarded sheet.
Very soft old sheets may be cut IN
pieces 40 by 20 and devoted to baby's
wear
In the sickroom there Is no end to the
possibilities Of an old sheet. Ope-half
laid across the bed under the patient
will serve as draw sheet, Small
pieces may be substituted for hand
kerhief and then burned. In infec-
tior cases an old sheet may be dipped

New York, June 5-Mrs. Hetty Green,
who recently moved from a modest
little house in Brooklyn to a palatial
suite in the Plaza and celebrated the
change by an expensive dinner there,
evidently has adopted the maxim of
the cynical dramatist who said there's

about" This is apparent from the fact
that a press clipping bureau has re-
ceived from her an order couched in
these words:
Send me until forbid all newspaper
references to Mrs. Hetty Green, espec-
tally in connection with social life,
wherever found in the papers Of Amer
lea. This must include every paper of
any prominence"
