RAINY DAY GAMES AT HOTELS.

From the New York Post
Summer hotel proprietors who appreci-
ate the influence OF a first impression on
an arriving guests mind are beginning TO
realize that they must not place too much
dependence on the natural beauty OF the
surroundings, and that something more
than a place that is desirable only In the
best Of weather Is required II their re-
sorts are 10 be among the popular re-
treats.
One landlord IN the Catslills was abroad
last winter. and the sight Of passengers
on his ocean liner playing Switchboard In
spired him with an idea for his own ho-
tel. So he has marked of several por-
lions Of his broad verandas for the game.
There IS usually plenty Of room on the
sewer floors of a summer hotel for
amusements. and at least two OF the pop
ular resorts have constructed indoor ten
MIS- courts Squash courts. too. may be
laid out with little trouble. One hotel
man has even equipped a clock golf
course under glass. Battledore and shut
tlecock, which once enjoyed such popu-
larity. is undoubtedly going 10 have its
innings again. There was always a
temptation to play this game in the
house, to the detriment Of glass and brio
a-brac. And they DO say that some peo-
pie were seen playing ping-pong the other
day. and that old tables were being
brought forth for \ busting.

forehead 81 the edge OF the hair md
joining two nenuphars. which thus pro-
duce a very bewitching effect.
A new evolution OF the most excIu-
sive French dressmakers IS the charm
ing soft lace draped hats which are
al the rage at fashionable European re-
sorts
One picturesque modei IS seen IN q
soft leghorn straw, trimmed az the base
of the crown with dainty half-blown tea
roses. The crown itself IS completely
enveioped in a magnificent lace VEIL OF
| Spanish design, reaching Tar below the
hips and forming a becoming background

All Of the wells OF more than shoulder
length are draped on summer hats, 50
/ that they can be manipulated IN SCARF
/ fashion, II the wearer so desires. Many
also can be arranged so as 10 be used for
a face veil
Net and chiffon frequently take thu
place OF the lace wells. which come In
/ large variety Of colors and prices. Both
| plain and embroidered effects are fash
! ionable, while some OF the most effec-
/ tive OF the chiffon scarf wells have Dor
/ ders OF Oriental design.
There Is little doubt but what these
charming lacy hats will become quite
as popular IN America as abroad, for
Z there Is no trimming that can be used
to better effect by clever women.

OF INTEREST TO THE WOMEN
FROM WOMAN'S
POINT OF VIEW


The woman who finds herself facing the
problem Of earning a living should i'm
mediatoly proceed to get rid OF her SEN
sdtive feelings. IL she has any She would
do well to try TO sink her personality
during business hours and keep saying
70 herself that only her work counts, that
she is not paid because she is pretty or
stylish. but just because she is useful 10
the business which pays her wages.
When she fails IN that her good looks
will not save her. A capable girl with.
perhaps. neither beauty nor style will
succeed her.
The employers who are hiring girls for
their charms are few, and the girls who
have TO work are many. Feminine work
ers are striving to secure the wages Of
men, which can only be done by doing
mems work. Now men do not expect
praise and 1t does not turn their head
when II is given. As a rule they do not
accept reproof as a personal injury
was amazed when a man declared that
II he owned a newspaper he would not
have woman on the STAFF, for I was
new 20 the work and enthusiastic. Later
nad occasion to sec how women fell
back upon their sex in bad weather and
when assignments were unpleasant. They
allowed personal affairs 10 interfere with
business. and some of them lost their
footing and have never been able TO re-
cover II.
The Just employer gives both praise
and blame. When he pays promptly he
expects good work every day and not
according 70 the feelings of his workers.
When there is a valid reason for leniency
like illness. for instance-he IS kind, but
for Sinking hs has no mercy. A man
who employs more than fifty women told
me that he had no trouble with them be-
cause he treated them exactly as he
would treat men. His creed was so much
work for so much money and he reasoned
that no woman had a right TO accept a
position she could not Ell. / think that
was fully understood by his Office. for
70 was I'm the habit Of going away and
returniaS without warning. and he SEEM
ed satisfied with the result.
Women are not yet accustomed TO being
treated with the lack OF courtesy which
makes the atmosphere Of a business
place A man whose brain IS turning
over important plans cannot give par
tlcular attention TO the tone In which he
addresses an employee. II may be brusqUe
without his knowing 1t or intending any
unkindneSs. A man would pay no atten-
ton 10 tone as long as words were decent,
but TO a woman's sensitive ear the tone
IS everything. II seriously affects her
work, so business men claim. and II is
the necessity for avoiding trouble that
turns them in favor Of male workers. I
saw a badly ironed sheet taken back to
the kitchen recently by a woman who Is
never anything but kind TO her employees.
when you find clean clothes that look
Ike this. Mary. do not bring them 10 me;
do them over" The girl burst into tears
with the remark that nobody had ever
found fault with her laundry til then.
II required some reasoning to bring her
20 q proper frame OF mind and the
woman decided 10 replace her by one less
sensitive at the earliest opportunity. II

WAY TO USE LEMONS.

Fr1n the Baltimore Star
With the approach OF warm weather
when mans best friend is the citrus fruit,
these suggestions are especially interest
ing. Following are twelve uses OF a
lemon.
1. Two or three slices OF lemon in a
cup OF strong tea viii cure e nervous
headache.
,. A tablespoonful Of juice in a small
cup Of black coffee viii relieve a bilious
headache.
s. The juice Of half lemon IN a cup OF
hot water on awakening IN the morning
is an excellent iver corrective and sue
cessful substitute for calomel and other
Alternative drugs.
l. 4 dash OF lemon juice in plain water
makes q cleansing tooth wash, not only
removing the tartar. but sweetening the
breath.
5. A lotion OF lemon Juice and rose
water will remove tan and whiten the
skin.
6. Lemon Juice with olive oil IS far
superior 10 vinegar for salad dressing
equal parts used for blending.
Z. Lemon juice and loaf sugar is good
for hOarsencss.
6 Outward application OF the juice Al
lays irritation caused by insect bites.
g. II when boiling sage or rice a tea
spoonful Of lemon juice is added. the
kernels viii be whittier and a delicate
flavor impaired.
10. An old-fashioned remedy for Group
we remember is honey. alum. and lemon
juice.

when the actor was a guest at the

direct outcome Of Col Roosevelts reply.

A BIT ABOUT BOWS.

From the Philadelphia Bulletin.
There Is q bow that Is right up to the
minute.
It is called the pump bow" because
it Is copied from those put on low shoes.
It is made from three loops at one end
and three at the other OF equal length.
but not OF equal width
Down the center is a one-inch strip Of
ribbon laid IN three plaits.
These bows are Of silk or velvet ribbon
particularly the latter, as velvet has such
popularity at present as a trimming.
Everything about this bow must be pre-
else, stiff, and well measured.
This bow is used as an addition to the
usual hat
1t is placed across the front or at the
side
II is not against millinery Ideals, how
ever, TO offset this with an immense
bunch of flowers on the other side. or a
wide-blOwn rose on the brim at the back
In placing the trimming OF the hat con-
siderable care must be observed to pre-
serve the balance by keeping It on a good
line with the bow, so that the lines Of the
hat are good.

PROPER CARE OF APPAREL.

From the Boston Herald.
Another precaution that IS sadly neg
lected nowadays Is the care Of kid gloves
The girl who has been given a present
OF a number of pairs Of kid gloves,
brought from Europe perhaps. by some
friend should remember 10 keep them
carefully wrapped in oil paper, which pre-
vents their discoloring aud helps 10 re-
tain the original soft, pliable quality Of
the leather. The girl who desires TO have
her gloves last as long as possible VIII
not keep numberless pairs in use at one
time
Tt IS better to have a few pairs worn
and cleaned regularly, and not until
these are worn out 10 start on new
pair. for the cleaning is bound tQrinIure
the soft kid, and, once cleaned. tle glove
win become yellow very quickly.
The same rule naturally applies TO the
wearing Of fine lingerie. The girl who
has been able 20 provide complete out
tit Of dainty underwear during a visit 70
Paris should keep the garments that
have not been used wrapped IN blue
tissue paper II this IS not done. the
fine linen will discolor and VIII not wear
long after once put in use The modern
girl IS so very independent that she does
not, as a rule, care for advice. and per-
haps that Is why she Is ignorant or so
many Of these precautions which to the
school girl Of her grandmother day
were as familiar as a knowledge OF ex-
quisitely fine sewing, OF which also the
average girl Of to-day is sadly ignorant
