RUSSIAN NET Wells
FAVORlTES THIS WINTER

Russian net wells are favOrites this win
ter because of the variety of meshes and
color effects in which they are made.
Incidentally some of them are not eX-
pensive. for yard can be bought for IS
cents.
In this net the particular favorite is a
background of white linen threads form
ing diamonds one-third of an inch in size,
picked out with small black silk dots.
This is 81 and SIS a yard. but is very
substantial and lasting. as it can be
washed in gasoline or alcohol, as a hand
kerchief is put through the general wash.
Its only fault is its stretching at the
edges but if these are oversewn with a
thread of black silk before the veil has
been worm it will keep its shape.
Next in favor is taupe, the large square
dot being preferred to the lighter one.
This is especially fascinating veil
when the whole costume is in tones Of
taupe. Gray is much worn both in light
and dark shades. and brown-a generally
becoming color as veil-is donned when
ever it will harmonic with the rest Of
the toilet.
Brilliant Colored Wells Not Stylish.
Wells in vivid shades are seldom seen.
black and white or gray being used when
the suit is of a bright color. Even navy
blue costumes are not finished with wells
to match Black, too, is out of favor
just at present. The decided blonde is
still loyal to it, and now and again 1t is
used for giving character to a gown in
neutral tones, such as pale gray or light
tan. or perhaps to tone down suit en-
tirely red, but is not used generally.
Tuxedo yelling is popular in magpie eff
fects, some of which are extremely be-
coming. The large dot seems to be pre-
ferred by younger women, the smaller
by those approaching middle age.
1t requires a certain holiness Of feature
to carry the heavy veil successfully.
while 1t is a perfect charity when the nose
is prominent. The baby-faced. small-fea-
tured little woman would look entirely I'M
suited in such an accessory.
The tiny mesh or the delicate black and
white hair lines should be her choice
Lace wells are not worn at present, but
there are some very lovely white lace
will be seen on summer hats. Chenille
spotted veilings may be classed among
the mot worm" which reduces the price
of it. for any pretty yelling can be
bought for 10 cents yard in black, white
and colors with the tuxedo mesh
Maline black. white and colors is So
cents yard, and the white makes a
pretty veil for wear with white fur or
feather turbans.
Mourning Wells.
Murning wells are of crepe, chiffon and
net the last named trimmed with rows
of dull ribbon.

TO CURE THE HABIT
OF BITING THE LIPS
Aloes or Red Pepper Placed in the Mouth
Has the Desired Effect.

of biting the nails For instance if one
has the courage to rub the outer edge of
the lips with few drops of aloes or a
few grains of red pepper the resulting ac-
ton upon the tongue will be a forcible re-
minder the next time one starts to bite
the lips.
Before going out into the cold air the
sore spots should be given some sort of
protection, such as a drop of spirits of
camphor. mixed with little vaseine. In
cidental1y. it is excellent to carry q little
stick of lip salve with one, to apply to the
sore as soon as any inflammation is felt.
Should the smarting and burning be al
lowed to continue, it greatly emphasizes
the trouble.
Cold Cream Is Healing.
\ good salve is made from a teaspoon
full of any cold cream and little melted
white wax in which some carmine has
been stirred. For instance take half a
teaspoonful of wax and a grain of car
mine. blending the two. Although the
wax is liquetied. it must not be allowed to
become hot or it will never harden This
when cool, but still liquid, may be stirred
into the cream. which. when firm, will be
harder than in it's original state
Ii wished. ten drops of spirits of cam
phor may be put into the wax, increasing
it's healing effect.

SEATS OF MIGHTY FOR SALE
CHAIRS OF CHINESE EMPEROR

NEW YORK. January lJ.-Today be-
sides the great X 'anG-hsi screen there is

Deror Chi'ien-Lung is to come under the
Kirby pencil which at afternoon sales
takes the place of the traditional auc-

sold set of furniture once the property
of Napoleon.
The Chien-Lung chair has been cata-
logued as SUCH but not until yesterday
did the Baroness Won Sternburg. who is
at present in New York. let it become
known that catalogue lot No. J12. entered
in the catalogue merely as a handsome
empire drawing room suite, had been
Napoleon Bonaparte's. 1t was not to be
supposed that in the household of a wide
ly travelled public man the possession of
such bit of furniture would be wholly
unknown. and there had been some con-
VerSation about the interesting set.
Yesterday the Baroness Won Sternburg
Informed Mr. Kirby that it was true. She
said that this set OF empire furniture
was made for Napoleon and was used by
him at Leipzig. After the tremendous
defeat which the emperor suffered there
at the hands of Europe this furniture fell
into possession of the baron's family.
The emperor's time is brought very near
when il is remembered that Baron Speck

the age of more than ninety years and
was boy when Europe had just finally

RESTORING TURQUOISES.

There is one sure method OF restoring
turquoises to their original COLOR said a
gem expert. 'Turquoises are said to be-
come green by age. but it is more proba-
Bile that the green color is due to grease
which accumulates on them.
They are very porous and are readily
discolored by liquids. When green spots
have not penetrated far into the stone the
color can sometimes be restored by allow
ing the turquoise to remain in a solution
of equal parts of alcohol and ammonia or
Embedding IT for Il time in tullers earth
mOistened with alcohol or water
petroleum ether is also a good dis
solver of oil and grease spots. If the
grease or oil has penetrated far into the
stone il is useless to attempt to remove
II. as 1t would only crack or whten the
stone.'-Home Notes.

To walk in the air. how pleasant and fair

The fairest of flowers adjoining the bowars
And every meadows brow:

Compare with them who clothe in gray
And follow the useful plow
They rise with the morning lark
And labor till almost dark:
Then folding their sheep. they hasten to sIecn.

CANANEA, Oct. S.-Twenty-five
hundred ton of matte was brought in
yesterday from the FL Trimpo mine
