beautiful lessons are taught in this
story.
To insure the largest success. A. G.

present chorus who were in the one
at that time. The announcement of
this musical event Will produce a great

cantata before will surely wish to hear
it again. Those who have never heard
it will be anxious to do so. The tai
ent that is united in giving Queen
Esther at this time Is assurance OF
Its excellence. Mr.. BiXler says that it
is one OF the best choruses that he has
ever had under his direction. They will

SOME SUGGESTIONS FOR

suits will be obtained if this, too. is put
on hanger of the sort having two clips.
These hold the belt in shape, making the
breadths smooth. With the short, stiff
brush. the whole bottom of the garment
should be briskly rubbed, yet not SO hard
as to wear the nap No special effort
need be made to lift dirt at this time, for
the scrub is for the purpose of loosening
1t. 1t must not be forgotten that the
motion of the feet drives dust into the
hem as in no other place. Also that the
under side requires cleaning quite as
much as does the outer.
This done. the whisk broom is called
into play. and used over the skirt quite as
on the jacket, being sure to begin at the
belt and brush down always.
To Dispel a Rusty Appearance.
A careful wiping with a flannel cloth
wet with vinegar will sometimes give a
marvellous freshness to dark plain suit
The flannel must be only sufficiently
damp to impart the least moisture, not
really to wet the goods II the whole

Two different kinds of brushes are

dust from shoulders. etc.. another fash
toned on the order of scrub. Only
with this can mud or heavy dirt be taken
from the bottom of the skirt or even
from the middle breadths.
Almost any tailor says that women are
not as particular i'm brushing their
clothes as are men, and fer that reason
a woman's cloth suit does not keep its
freshness as long as the same material
would if worn by man. For once dust
gets into the warp and wool, the stuff
becomes dingy and rusty, and not even
a cleansing at a professionals will always
restore it.
To prevent this appearance, as soon as
a girl comes indoors she should put
her jacket on wide hanger that will
hold the shoulders out and brush it care
fully. giving short, rather sharp strokes
suggestive of digging This will lift the
dirt that has gone a little below the sur
face. The finish is best down with long
sweeping strokes to remove surface dust
Special attention should be given to the
shoulder seams and arm, to prevent their
turning gray. This is sure to happen il

TO GIVE THE OYSTERS A REST
Closed Season in the Potomac Ad
vanced a Month.

Under the new oyster laws OF Virginia
and Maryland. the oyster season on the
Potomac river is over. Beginning at mid
night last night 1t became illegal to take
the oysters from the beds in the river.
The police steamers of the two states are
patrolling the oyster-bearing grounds in
the Potomac to see that the law is obeyed.
The closing Of the oyster-taking season a
month ahead of former years is for the
purpose of giving the oyster beds longer
time to rest and in this way improve the
quantity and quality of the Potomac oys-
ter. The wisdom of the new oyster pro-
lection laws, some of which have been in
force for about three years. was seen this
year. when the supply of the bivalves in
the Potomac beds was larger than it has
been in twenty years and the quality was
as fine as that of most Chesapeake bay
stock.
The closing of the oyster season does
not mean that there will be scarcity of
oysters here, for vessels with the bivalves
aboard win be coming here until warm
weather comes. The stocks they will
bring. it is asserted. will be from private
owned beds along the river. but 1t will re-
quire vigilance the part of the oyster
police to prevent the oystermen from TAX
ing the bivalves from public beds if they
have the opportunity 10 do SO.

of coal. 1t is stated that number of
vessels will be loaded with coal at
Georgetown each week this spring and
