it went out Of style you're especially
fortunate, for shawl pins are "in" again.
They came along with kimonos and
caftans and beautifully simple cloaks
They are so much more IN character

vided. and antique shawl pins, fibula
ana clasps OF various periods and coun-
tries do excellent duty. One is a huge
hale moon Of twisted gold on the ends
Of which arc big pearl-shaperI anne
thysts. The long pin going across this
is also headed with large amethyst
These with sharp pins may be worn
as they were originally designed while
those which. like the Irish clasps have
heavy blunt pins, meant to be thrust
through loosely woven woods. may be
easily made into a brooch by the ad-

features entirely original. They are en-
broidered with birds and beasts Of all
descriptions. and a few Of them are
decorated with a human figure The
lace employed as a trimming is usually
Irish. but any lace would be appropriate

after a tonic has been applied daily for
some months
A decided stimulant for the eyebrows
Is made OF two and one-half grains OF
suiphate Of quinine and a half ounce
Of sweet almond oil. Mix and rub in
thoroughly before brushing.
In cases where the eyebrows grow
thin from illness. something a little diff
ferens should be used.
Good for this condition is a mixture
Of five grains OF tincture OF rosemary.
one gram Of tincture Of cantharides.
fifty grams Of spirits OF camphOr, and
fifty grams Of cologne.
Mix and apply morning and-night reg
ularly for at least six weeks.
The lUster and prettiness of the brOws
may be very much increased in the
evening by moistening them slightly
with almond oil.
A fine camers hair brush should be
dipped in the liquid, and all that can
should be wiped from the tip. Then
rub the brush over the brOws gently
and evenly.
Should the oil be visible in any place,
wipe II off with the finger tips

The Masters Leavtt Win Distinguished Applause for Their Fine Banjo Playing
How TO Acquire Pretty Eyebrows

The eyebrows should be brushed morn
ing and night, and through the day
when one happens TO think Of them.
Have a soft brush. and use it for five
minutes at a time in brushing the brows.
Always stroke ia the line that the
brows should grow.
Some tonics undoubtedly are aids, and
the simplest of all is vasellne.
Red is the best, and this should first
be put on the hnger-tips and rubbed
well into the brows before brushing be-
gins.
This may be done in the morning quite
as we'll as at night, for the grease should
be so absorbed as not TO show.
Whatever color the hair may be, the
brows are usually more effective II a
few shades darker.
Any tonic containing grease is a dark
ener, from the fact Of the presence of
the oils, and with a tonic OF this sort
a dye is not necessary.
To be sure, a dye works faster. but
in the end not 50 we'll; and 1t is much

PaquID SkHts.

The new Paquin skirts require the
tightest sort OF pettiCOat, and most
women find that a really clingy skirt
is a ye-y difficult thing TO get.
For these new corsets have been de-
signed with buttons around the lower
edge, to which the particular woman
may fasten her circular apetucoat- In
this way she avoids any double thick
ness Of material for six or eight inches
below the waist line, and the PaquIn
skirt has no excuse not to De as tight
as IL IS possible 20 make IL.
