an uncovered broom. Use a broom bag

broom is apt to split the fiber of the
mating. A handful of salt added to a

ton for wiping over the mating after
sweeping. It brightens the floor cover

The following directions for preparing
coffee as they prepare it at the Waldorf
Astoria, are given in the National Food
Magazine: Allow one tablespoonful of
coffee to each person. The coffee when
ground should be measured, put in the
pot and boiling water poured over it in
the proportion of three-quarters of a
pint to each tablespoonful. The instant
it boils take the pot off, uncover and
let it stand a minute or two: then cover,
put it back on the fire and boil again.
Let it stand for five minutes to settle; it
is then ready to pour out
1t seems quite likely from late Parish
an hints that the Vshape, in both the
back and the front, will be the most
worn form of decolletage, although those
to whom the square, round, or wedge
shape is preferable, will, if wise, choose
those instead. Even the slightly cutout
neck suitable for day wear, and especial
ly comfortable in warm weather, Will
show the V shapes. If, however, one
has that rare and beautiful neck admired
by all artists, that widens out to join the
shoulders instead of the ordinary straight
neck, they should wear the square cut to
show the lines of beauty.
Fringe has been noted as an especially
handsome trimming on few extremely
handsome afternoon gowns tor formal Oc-
casions, but fringe, save in its handsom-
est and most expensive forms, is not like
ly to long remain fashionable among the
ultra-smartly gOwned women. 1t IS too
easily copied, manufactured, and apphed,
and soon becomes common. Yet hand
some fringe is graceful and artistic I'M,

arately to the border of drapery cannot
be cheap nor can they ever be initiated

MANY women, either from a peculiar
construction of the head or from not
knowing how to pin hat securely; wear
+hoir headgear at rakish angle that IS,
