Pointers Picked Up by the Exercise

There is something to be learned in
every house we enter, some valuable
bit Of information to be CLEANED from
nearly everybody we meet. At a must
cal one day I was served with ice
cream which was entirely new to me,
and later I learned that it was the
sauce which gave the touch of orig
inality, as the cream was the old
standby, vanilla. Homemade pre-
serves, blueberries, were poured over
the cream, giving an air of unfamiliari-
ty to the stuff and imparting a de-
licious flavor. l have used the hint
to good advantage, substituting rasp-
berries, strawberries, pineapple. black
berries and peaches-preserved and
fresh-for the blueberries, and on one
occasion using maple strip with
chopped nut meats.
At another house + was introduced
to milk sherbet, called zone, two,
three sherbet by the hostess because
it was easier to remember by numerals.
One quart of milk, two cups of sugar
and the juice of three lemons were
poured into the freezer and came out a
delicious dessert, despite the tendency
to curdle. The freezing smoothed the
mixture.

One BY Gen. Miles.

Gen. Miles used to tell of a surgeon
at certain post during the civil war
who was chafed great deal for his
llowery and extravagant style of OK
preston, both written and oral. On
one occasion it appears that the col
onel Of the regiment had appropriated
the surgeons tent for a mess-table
without the usual formality of stat
ing his intentions. Whereupon the
surgeon sent complaint to the OF
ficer in command. Among other things
he said: Il have not so much as a tly

Sr%le Rules for Making Them from

why net make your own sachet of
the freshest flowers in the garden? 1t
is a simple process.
For rose sachet, use one-half pound
of dried rose leaves, one-quarter
pound of ground sandal wood and one
eighth ounce of altar of roses. Keep in
a tightly corked bottle when not need

Nor heliotrope sachet, take one
quarter pound of dried rose leaves

powdered orris root, two ounces of
powdered tonquin bean, one ounce OF
vanilla bean and two drops of altar Of
almonds Mix the powders by sitting
them together.
For altar of roses, pick enough rose

very filmy, clinging fabric which
seems practically without body, over

| line of machine work is shown, is the
correct thing for present day needs.
There is much talk about simple eff
fects in 1908 frocks, but the simplicity
is hard to find To be sure, the lines
themselves are simple enough.
Skirts to all intents are plain, often
absolutely devoid of trimming, but the
blouses and WRAPS make up for the Sc
verify of the skirts. Neither is there
any simplicity to be noted in the trim
mings used, which are trimmings upon
trimmings, embroidery upon lace, or
even lace upon lace.
One of the needle work fads which
gives most pleasing effects is that of
touching up laces with bit of deli
cately tinted hand embroidery. An in.
expensive imitation cluny or fiIet lace
can be made charming by embroider-
ing over part of the pattern in color
or doing stamped pattern upon the

running tucks, shocking or rose-shir-

similar soft materials for house frocks.
Nothing so certainly stamps a frock as
cheap like machine stitchery on a soft,
chinging fabric.
Another feature of up-to-date sewing
is the application Of lace medallions,
or the combination of embroidered
medallions with lace insertions.

Make Waists Last Longer.

If, before you wear your shirtwaists,
you will stitch piece of goods across
the back at the waist line and on the
sides half way around the front, you
will find that they will not tear SO
easily where they are fastened down
to the skirt. The extra piece of ma.
terial may be stretched on low enough
not to show above the belt and still
high enough to catca The strain.
On waists with lace collars it is well
to stitch small stl Up of goods about

Few Simple Rules Amateur Nurse
Should Remember.

Never whisper in a sickroom. Talk
In low tone, but distinctly, so that
your patient can understand every
word spoken. Nothing is so irritating
to a sick person as hearing voices
without being able to comprehend the
subject under discussion.
Never shovel coal from hod in the
sick chamber. Bring the coal in
wrapped in paper, and lay paper and
all on the fire. This will prevent
both noise and dust.
Never air a room without first COW
ering the patient.
Never fiirt the sheets when making
the bed so that the patient sitting nea"
will catch the eddy of dust that al
ways follows such an action.
Never under any circumstances tell

Yes"
This meant that it was time for
their prayer, which they always said
In each others arms, there, before the

floor, and they folded their hands each
in the other. And, after Our Father"

not less a prayer; for in the five years
of Seffy's absence it had passed into
"a formula.

Get directly in the range of his vision
when his head is comfortably placed
