The Collecting of
Old and Rare China

Illustrated a book on china may be, nc
reproductions can give fair idea of
the marvellous tones of the old blues
| of the early English wares or the deli
cate tones of painted Lowestoft poree-
lain. Not until at least one collection
of rare china has been gazed upon
understandingly, and the beauties of il
looked upon with intelligent eyes. will
the desire arise to possess for one Is
self some such specimens, but once this
ambition,is reused there will be no rest
Even if girl have no desire to ac-
tually become a eonnoisseur on the sub
ject of old china, she could make a
! study of it with real profit to herself
and learn to appreciate really good
china when it is set before her. Surely
it is as important for girl to be able
to recognize fine porcelain when she
sees ut ON some festal board as it is
for her to know fine linen and damask
or to experience thrills of envy on view
ing some bit of rare and costly lace.
Once an interest in the subject has
been started by a study of the English
wares which are comparatively common,
study of the chinaware of Holland.

Gus terms of even Delft, Sevres and
Dresden stood for perhaps the only
varieties one knew of, and these. too,
were but vaguely familiar.
All during the eighteenth and early
part of the nineteenth centuries there
were sent over here from England a
great quantity of pottery and porcelain
of the different Staffordshire wares.
and later Of the many varieties of
Derby, Chelsea and Wedgwood china
A study of the history of the early
English potters and their splendid
pioneer work in this field will prove
most interesting even if one has not
the slightest intention of becoming a
collector
It is still possible on the mainland
to find many good and often valuable
specimens of this English china in ont

porcelain and pottery. Or if there be
garnet in one s own home it should
be ransaeked at once in the hope of
finding there some good specimen of
now rare kind of porcelain which may
have found its way there after being
discarded by some member of a pre-
vious generation who. through what
now seems to us surprising ignorance,
had no interest in ANYTHING so mundane.

place CASTLE soap as suggested for the
bran mixture. Orris, while desirable
for its seeming properties, is not es-
sential.
Tonics for the Skin.
4 tonic mixture, good for the skin
and stimulating in effect for the bath,
is particularly recommended for per-
sons of forid complexion and has the
merit of not being expensive. 1t is
made from a gram each of bromide of
potassium and carbonate of lime, 300
grams of carbonate of soda, eight grams
of phosphate of soda, five grams of sui
phate of soda, one gram of sulphate of
alumina, three grams of sulphate of
iron and a gram each of lavender,
thyme and rosemary. This is sufficient
for one good bath, but the mixture
might be increased in quantity so there
would be enough for several different
dimensions. Three times a week would
be sufficient number of times to put
it in the tub. Like the others. it
should be put into bag, so the drain
pipe will not become clogged.
Very pleasant baths are made by
scenting with some of the essential oils.
For example, few drops of oil of Law
ender III a tub of warm water will give
fragrant odor to the skin. A mix
ture of equal parts of lavender, thyme
and rosemary is pleasant combination.
Care must be taken not to use too much
at time, or the odor is unpleasant
A teaspoonful is a large quantity for
a tub.

POPULAR EMBROIDERY IN RELIEF

Embroidery in relief is now inter
esting a large number of girls who
are fond of fine needlework The
work is called petaline. because the
petals stand out from the body Of the
work This high relief effect is OBJ
tanned by the use of wire around the
edge of the petal and by having these
petals cut from separate pieces Of ma
terial. The nse of the wire is a Japa-
nese idea, and although relief may be
done without it, it adds much TO the
character Of the work.
The main part of the design is work
81 in the ordinary fashion. Wines.
leaves, etc, are usually worked f7ar.
although padding is sometimes used
under the leaves. The flower, if If be
double. has the outer leaves worked
fiat and only the inner leaves worked
In relief.
The petals which are TO be so worked
are stamped upon separate piece of
material and the wire is buttonhofed
down to the outer rim Of the petal.
Then the petal is filled in in the usual
fashion. Tt Is then sewn down to its
place on the flower by means Of the
flower centers.

Bran and oatmeal bags are among the
simplest and best of cleansing agents,
and it is unfortunate that they are not
used more often, for both are inexpen-
sive and the work of preparing them is
slight.
Bran may be bought at feedstore or
the druggist s, and bags to put it in
may be quickly made at home. These
eases, fashioned from cheeseeloth,
should be about six inches square and
sewed on the machine or in small
stitches with the fingers, leaving open
only small space in which to put the
grain.
One formula for preparing bran is
to put three ounces of orris root, pow
dered, to six pounds of bran, mixing
the two thoroughly. If wished, three
ounces of CASTLE soap, scraped TO a
powder, may also be added. Each
cheesecloth bag must be half filled with
this mixture and then sewed tightly to-
gether. 4 bag may be used not more
than three times and should be thrown
into the bath as soon as the water is
drawn. As it should stand for fifteen
or twenty minutes in order TO soften
the water. it is well to draw the bath
hotter than is desired. The sack of
bran is rubbed over the body, or not,
as one likes. The only way Of drying
it. for another time, is TO hang it to
drip To squeeze it would extract a
large part of its beneficial properties.
Oatmeal Bags for Bath.
Oatmeal, at its best for these bags,
should be of the oldfashioned variety,
boiled for fifteen or twenty minutes.
This expands the grains. so that the
starch will be easily extracted when
thrown again into hot water. To five
pounds of this should be added a pound
Of powdered orris root and pound of
almond meal. These two last ingre-
dents. that add materially TO the ex-
pense, may be omitted, using in their

Good Manners

That E'good manners are nothing
in the world but a certain form of
unselfishness and thoughtfulness for
others is a new idea to many girls, but
what very true thing it is! The ex-
cessively rude man who does not rise
to offer his seat in a street car to a
tired woman standing in front of him
is simply the selfish man who prefers
to be comfortable himself than give
the opportunity of rest to another The
girl who does not take the trouble to
stand when an older woman enters the
room simply shows that she is too lazy
to please by even so small a mark of
respect for the older person. Again,
the girl who does not bother to wish
CHEEKY ''Good morning. to her fam
lily, her teachers or her school shows
only that she is absorbed in herself
and does not think of others sufficient
ly to even make the attempt of glad
dening the moment with a bright smile
and solicitous good wish.
In themselves they may not amount
to so very much, the little "con-
venances" of life, and many a seul-
lery maid is at heart a perfect little
lady; but if gentle birth can not bring
with it good breeding, what good is it
after all? The girl with a bright smile
and cheerful nod of good fellowship
and good will to all who cross her path
has never yet failed to win love from
all with whom she chances to come in
contact, while no little mark of re-
spect or smallest politeness done to an
older person passes unappreeiated.
All that is necessary to acquire good
manners in the broad, right sense of
the term is the power to put one S self
in another s place and think what they
would like-the chair, perhaps, that
you are sitting in, the cup of tea pass
ed to them first before you yourself
are waited upon, strict attention given
while they talk of matters which per-
haps are not Of vital interest to you,
but i'll which surely something of in
terest can be found. 1t is the girl
who carries out all this that is said to
have such "charming manners, and
what does she do, after all, but get
out of herself sufficiently to think
quickly what might please those about
her, and then to act out that thoughts
Surely when once it is realized that
bad manners and selfshness are but
coordinate terms, no girl could wilfullv
allow herself to be dubbed Ill man.

 Experiment.
 Brewton, Feb. 2.--fspeciaL) )--J. w. Parsons has been in the city a week experimenting the manufacture of nx- lures for hls bee farm just over the line in Florida at Biuff Springs. The work Is being done at the Cedar Creek factory.
 Mir. Parsons came to this section from Bassemer several years ago where he was engaged in the same business, and while here has been looking over several places for the purpose of send ing some of his bee colonies to this place for culture He expects to ir- crease the number of his hives to i,09o during the year, and since 1t is neces- sary that they should be scattered his four yards at Bluff Springs are not large enough to accommodate the num- Der of hives at his present apiary,
 Mr. Parsons realizes from IF t-2 to 20 cents per pound for his product. and always finds ready market for it. { E. M. Loveiace, who. with his broth- CT, has about 800 acres of young peach trees two miles from town. gave 1t as his opinion yesterday that the cold weather of the past few days has not injured the prospects for good crop of fruit at their farm.
 E. s. Lilies has begun the erection of 6 handsome residence on Bsileviile Avenue on the lot adjoining the uni- versaiist church.
 Mrs. Minnie Douglas has purchased his house on this street adjoining the new dwelling and will occupy 1t after the completion of the new structure.

 All of AIabafsaass newest laws, it is thought, will be enforced. ana . search for violations made The prohibition laws and the 24-iTich gun regulation will be brought up.
 So far 1t looks as # there has been no attempt to take up the question of prohibition and it's vioiatlon, though the other matter, that of the long guns, has been put up to several of the witnesses who were on the grfddle yesterday.
