THROWING HOT WATER,
 ON THE GROOM


 The wholesale emigration Of young men from Italy is causing falling off in marriages among the lower classes and -marriageabie girls in the country have revived several super stitious practices which are supposed to have the power of helping them to find husbands.
 Whenever a girl who has several unmarried sisters marries the precau- ton of throwing a great quantity of hot water over the doorstep is never neglected. There Is firm belief that before the water dries up another member of the same family, generally a sister of the bride. will find hus- band.
 If girl peels an apple without breaking the skin and then throws the skin over her left shoulder it is said that 1t win take the shape of the first letter of her future husbands name. If servant girls write their names on apples and hang them on a string in row. before the. fire the first apple that falls down Is that of the girl whose marriage Is immini- nent.
 Another effective mems to quick marriage consists in burning a wisp of hair together with certain herbs on slow fire in dark room an hour after midnight. The shadow of the future husband Is then seen, and the marriage follows within fortnight.

GAN YOU TELL A HUS- BAND BY HIS MANNERS?

Not long ago, at the opera. sat in front of a man whom I knew to be married. though I had never seen his wife.
 He had a good looking young wo- man with him, and naturally assumed that she was the wife.
 T sat alone between the acts, thanks to a restless brother who was doing grand opera with an air of patient, brotherly martyrdom. so could not help but overhear much of the conVer- sation behind me.
 She is undoubtedly his wife," said to myself at the end of The first inter- mission. "He talks exactly like hus- band. |"
 At the end of the second intermission I decided that she was his sister. be-
 At the end of the third intermission I decided that she was a charming wo- man acquaintance, because he was so very courteous and polite. If he is her husband, then I think that young wo- man has been very fortunate.
 A man who can be devoted hus- band and yet treat his wife as courte- ously as he did is a rarity.
 Naturally husband and wife cannot always be on terms of formal polite ness, but I notice among many of my married friends that familiarity has de- veloped too great lack of ceremony.
 The reason that I thought the man in question might be brother was owing to a certain amount of gentle teasing, which was more brotherly than husbandlY.

PATIENCE ESSENTIAL
 WITH CHILDREN

Nowhere is patience so essential as with children. little and big. and of ten 1t is the elder ones who require the most. Their faults have to be cor rected, and they are so perverse and so careless and so provoking that 1T the mother has not perfect control over her own temper. and patience has not perfected its work Is her soul, she must be of all women the most miser- able.
 Absolute power Is always liable to abuse, and while the children are young 1t Is vested in the parents. It is terribly easy for the strong to tri- umph over the weak. but the tender ness of love will enable most fathers and mothers to restrain their impa- tience.
 Let child who has been naughty or boisterous have time to consider before any punishment is given. and he will often say he is sorry, and will understand that, even if lie has not done much harm. he has given pain and trouble to the kind parent who is the center of his solar system. But if a slap or shake immediately follows the naughtiness 1t only excites a sort of blind anger.
 If grown-up people would only cast their minds back to their own children as they remember they thought they ought to have been treated them selves. there would be less sorrow and grief in many families when the boys and girls grow up.
 If sudden and relatively severe pun ishment is given. for slight faults, or even a great scolding and fuss made, children are apt to become deceitful. Many children would confess the wrongdoing If they were not afraid.

 It Is rather a hazardous task to launder chiffon and make 1t look im- maculate without reducing 1t to shreds.

 Then 1t should be stiffened in gum water, which Is made by adding one tablespoonful of gum to quarter of a pint of wateE

 Chiffon Is ironed by being placed on the table. wrong side up and pressed along the selvage so as not to jisplace the fibers.
 When chiffon is froned 1t should be held tightly up in front of the iron to remove the wrinkles that are produced by washing.
 Chiffon ties with a natural crepon wrinkle should not be ironed, but ip- stead should have the ends pinned to the table just stretched enough to al- low the crinkles to fall in their natural shape.

THE MAKING or
 WARM SHIRTWAISTS

The dotted chailis waist Is very new, very light in weight and very warm. Indeed, 1t is well worth second thought. and 1t invites the sensible woman, or, better still. the sensible mother. Daughters are not very warmly clad these days. and 1t might be well to take some time for the consideration of the fairly warm winter waist. be 1t shirtwaist or blouse.
 There Is not the least objection to the non- washable blouse If 1t be made of material that is not bulky, and worn on the right occasions. It in- wolves more care than the durable white linen waist, and should be made with, the idea of an occasional bath in warm, soapy water. Almost all challis will stand this treatment occasionally. This year there is 6 beautiful little model shown at an exclusive shop. It is made of this pretty. soft material. embroidered by hand over its entire surface; but there are evidences Of carelessness in It's makeup.
 The little dots have, quite apparent ly. been embroidered first. since the seams cut them off at certain points. The ideal way really amounts to a defect. is to first cut out the blouse and fit It; then, With the seam lines marked, to embroider the separate pieces and remake the blouse. The small dots on the pretty sage-green challis were done in darker silk to bring 1t into harmony with its skirt.
 On some woolen shirtwaists a single line of dots only appears down each side of the center box pleat and on the cuffs. They are larger, the size of a pea, and are worked in a quite dark shade of the color shown in the material

SOCIAL AMENITIES FOR
 THE SCHOOL GIRL

That. good manners" are nothing in the world; but a. certain form of unseifishness and thoughtfulness for others Is new idea to many girls. but what very true thing 1t isl. The excessively rude man who does not ! rise to offer his seat in street car \ to tired woman standing in front of 1; him Is simply the selfish man who pre- ,fers to be comfortable himself than give the opportunity of rest to an- other. The girl who does not take the trouble to stand when an elder wo- man enters the room simply shows that she Is too lazy to please by even so small a mark nf respect for the older person. Again. the girl who does not bother to wish cheery Good morn ing to her family. her teachers or her school shows only that she Is absorb ed in herself and does not think of others sufficiently to even make the attempt of gladdening the moment with a bright smile and solicitous good wish.
 In themselves they may not amount to so very much. the little "conven- anees" of life. and many scullery maid Is at heart g perfect little lady; but if gentle birth cannot bring with 1t good breeding what good is 1t after all? The girl with bright smile and a cheerful nodsof 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 respect or smallest politeness done to an older person passes unappreciat- ed.
 All that Is necessary to acquire good manners in the broad. right sense of the term Is the power to put ones 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 in which surely something of in- terest can be found. It 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 thought? Surely when once 1t Is realized that bad manners and selfshness are but coordinate terms no girl could wil- fully allow herself to be dubbed i'll hammered.

THE ALWAYS TIRED,
 NOT ALWAYS LAZY

Sir Lauder Brunton discusses the question of fatigue in long paper in The Practitioner.
 The complaint is constantly heard from patients he writes. that they are always tired, and indeed some people avoid working on the ground that they are constitutionally tired. Other people term them simply lazy, but 1t is quite possible that in many of these cases there is some physical condition in the person which renders exertion specially distasteful to them, although other people cannot observe it."
 In discussing the relation between mental and physical fatigue he says: Tt Is clear that in regard to fatigue the brain and the muscles go togeth- CT. and it Is mistake to regard mus cular fatigue as q stimulus to the brain, or mental fatigue as stimu- lus to the muscles" Long-continued muscular exertion renders the brain anaemic. This fact the famous phy- sfcian illustrates:
 Many years ago I used to write for a medical periodical. On return ing home one day after very heavy days work at the hospital and feeling completely exhausted. l found note from the editor: Please let me have
  tonight. I sat down with pen and pa- per before me. but not word could I write.
 Then I lay back iazily. and began to speculate as to the cause of my want of ideas. thought: The brain is the same as 1t was yesterday, but yesterday I was not tired; per- haps 1t Is the feebler circulation that prevents the brain from acting. If the blood does not go up to the brain. I may bring the brain down to the blood I therefore placed my hat flat on the table. looking sideways at the paper, and began to write easily.
 lon raising my head again every idea fled, so l placed my head again down on the table. and finished the article with my head in that posi- tion.
 "A similar instance was afforded by the practice of the late Mir. W. c. Lecky. the historian. He had a large. magnificent head, mounted upon a long neck and a willowy body. He found out that his circulation was not sufficiently strong to raise the blood to his brain In sufficient quantity for its functional activity In the upright position.
 "A mutual friend informed me that

extra width making little frill above the chamois.
 Next sew the outside and the lining together at the top of the chamois skin and again half an inch below to make a place for the drawing strings. Through this run two pieces of narrow ribbon, one coming out of slit at each side. and buttonhole closely around the slits. Tie each drawing string in bow and the bag itself is finished It must be supplied with a powder pun small enough to fit com fortably inside and when it Is to be used a thick coating of powder is put on the bottom. Do not put in too much powder at once If the bag is to be carried in a satchel. for the pun will hold small amount of 1t in place and, when the bag is drawn up tight the powder will not come out, even if turned upside down, but If there is too large quantity of powder it may spin a little.

SATCHEL POWDER PUFF
 WHEN TRAVELLING

A little bag to carry talcum powder Is a great addition to ones comfort when travelling or On a motoring trip. The powder is most refreshing after being long in the wind or after wash ing one's face. Although it can. of course, be carried in the tin box in which 1t is bought. that does not pro- vide a place for the powder pun, and by far the best way to carry it for temporary use is in a little silk bag lined with chamois skin.
 The bag is made like a work bag. but much smaller, Cut out first a circle of heavy cardboard three and a half inches in diameter. Cover this on the inside with chamois and on the outside with silk. broad lowered or broeaded ribbon being the best thing to use. Sew around this piece of the chamols just long enough to fit smoothly around the bottom This piece of chamois must be cut four in- ches wide. Outside of 1t is sewed a piece of the ribbon twenty-one inches long, which will give 1t considerable fuIlness The ribbon should be four and three quarter inches wide. tho

THE ART OF CONVERSATION

Of course, there are those people who take a malicious pleasure in us- ing speech for malign purposes, giving "stabs." as women say, or doing other mischief But they are comparatively rare. Theirs Is moral disorder. and will hardly come within the scope of the school for conversation. Most of the evil done by speech is thoughtless. People gossip, not to do harm. but to be interesting. With some people the desire to be interesting amounts al- most to mania, says Harperss Bazar. By means of sensational stories. ruin ous to reputation the rullest person in the world can for the moment out shine the most brilliant mind. No won der so many people suceumb. No won dor gossip Is practically universal The school for conversation cannot stop it but 1t may put some restraint on 1t by calling attention to certain con- alterations. These include the increas- ing contempt of the world for those who injure others by speech, anj the fear of such persons by, those who listen to the gossip. If Mrs. Jones hears the charming Mrs. Smith cen seriously gossiping about their friend Mrs. Robinson, Mrs. Jones is likely to fear, perhaps to avoid. Mrs. Smith.
 It is appalling to think of the limi- tations now existing in the converse tion of most people. There are many who spend a large part of their lives in discussing a few subjects over and over again. And these subjects are often rather unpleasant A Harvard professor has for years been advocat- ing a course for general information. Here is a hint for the new school. 1t must teach the students to taken an interest in things. As Stevenson says. the world Is full of such wonderful things, I am sure we should all be as happy as kings" The new-school philosophers have long been advocat- ing the wholesome principle of not striving merely to -annihilate bad ha- bities in human beings. but to substi- tute good habits in their place. If peo- pie in general can only be persuaded to take an interest in wholesome, in teresting things, they will gradually be weaned from the habit of preying on one another and they will find life overfiowing with compensations.

POPULAR EMBRoID-
 FRY IN RELIEF

Embroidery in relief is now lnte- resting 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 ob- tained by the use of wire around the edge of the petal and by having these petals cut from separate pieces of material The use of the wire is a Japanese idea and although relief may be done without 1t. 1t adds much to the character of the work.
 The main part of the design is work ed in the ordinary fashion. Vines. leaves etc., are ustially worked fiat. although padding is sometimes used under the leaves. The flower, if it be double. has the outer leaves work ed flat and only the inner leaves work ed fin relief. stat6s4-
 The petals which are to be so work ed are stamped upon a separate piece of material and the wire is button holed down to the outer rim of the petal Then the petal Is filled In the usual fashion. It Is then sewed down to it's place on the flower by means of the flower centres.

 There are many novelties in veils; those which are double and of con trasting color must be chosen wisely. not to detract from the beauty of the wearer.
 Unusually attractive scallops are seen as a finish to some of the linen turnover collars. The more elaborate ones have the front points of Irish crochet lace.
 Moire hat bands. finished with the square bow, are seen as the sole trim- ming on some of the tailored hats These may be bought ready to slip on any hat

 The underarm gusset. let in from the armpit to the hip affords a new place for handsome trimming. Some of the tailored garments have this underarm trimming of fur.
 The winter dress of diaphanous weave Is weighted with shot around the hem. Were is not for the weight tape many skirts of the period would never hang evenly.
 Fancy buttons of metal or jet are used for fastening the long fur coats Usually there are four large buttons. none of them more than fifteen Inches below the waistline.
