RAFFIA COVERED
PARAS0LS THE FAD

Nobody knows just why raffia has
made it's way once more to the 'front.'
but we are permitted the question, II
not granted the reply.
Raffia for the parasol cover is woven
into plain, uneven material that
stretches smoothly over the frame and
is novel in appearance. 1t has hereto
fore been handled only in huge hanks
that have been used mainly for basket
ry. Somebody seems recently to have
conceived the idea of weaving 1t into
widths, and we snail probably see 1t
used for other purposes as we'll as par
asol tops
1t has been hemstitched round the
edge as a finish on the very plain eight
ribbed parasol. which, being the same
natural color, belongs primarily TO the
pongee gown.
Some of the seasons prettiest para
soils are made with many ribs, and on
one of these twelve-ribbed frames COW
cred with raffia cloth there is an almost
bushy fringe Of the raffia grass, about
four inches deep and having knotted
heading where it joins the parasol.
The handles of these parasols follow
out this years dictum in favor or the
highly artistic. The word is used ad-
visedly, since they are parts of a per-
feet whole. The raffia, in it's dried-grass
color and it's natural state of uneven
ness, is worked into closely set de-
sign around a wooden handle OF the
same delicate shade. This covered han
die is studded with beads of opaque
porcelain; white, blue or green may be
selected, according to the color scheme
of the gown. Beads used in this way
are unusual and produce quite an effect
of embedded jewels.
These parasols are most attractive
for seashore and mountain use, with
linen gowns, as well as with pongee
and with all the rougher weaves of silk.
They are deeply fringed in way
that is a triumph of skillful hand work,
for the fringe is not a separate matter
sewed on, but is formed from the
strands of the texture cut long to be
used for finish when the weaving part
is DONE The fringe is intricately and
artistically knotted, and the raffia split
very fine to make it beautifully full
and fluffy.

SOME "poN,Tsp FOR THE WIFE

Don't begrudge your husband few
hours spent with his men friends occa-
sionally. You meet your friends at
bridge parties and pink teas. Be con-
siderate and give him the same privi-
lege.
Don't bother him with troublesome
trifles that happen during the day.
Don't whine and complain over house
hold difficulties.
Don't overwork and be tired and cross
when he comes home. Your husband
will see your tired and irritable express
sion where he will not be conscious of
a few extra grains of dust which you
might have annihilated at the expense
of your strength.
Don't let yourself get old and ugly.
Take time to keep yourself young and
to cultivate good looks. If you can't
be beautiful, try to be interesting.
Don't forget to cultivate your mind
Read about what is going on in the
great world, so that if he makes a re-
mark on current events you will be able
to answer him intelligently, instead of
giving him a blank stare.

ARE YOU MOVING MAY 1?
HOW A COLLEGE GIRL
RECLAIMED HER HEALTH

The story of how a young college
woman regained her health after
breaking down in the middle of a term
and being obliged to return to her
suburban home to recuperate, Is full
of meat for the thoughtful, and Incl
dentally explodes the prevailing fall
lacy that market gardening offers no
opportunity for women. The expert
ment took place in New Jersey.
She hired vacant lot and had 1t
spaded, doing the planting and all
the other work herself. Early pota-
toes were first planted, then radish.
lettuce and onion beds laid off. Corn
other seeds were planted as the young
gardener had time and strength.
By the end of the second week the
invalid was feeling much better and
had become SO enthusiastic that she
regretted her plat of ground was not
larger.
She began to use lettuce, radishes
and onions for the table the first week
in June, and there was an abundance
not only for her own, but also for the
four neighboring families whose back
porches looked out on the amazing
sight of a woman doing her own gar
dening. A few weeks later they all
had new potatoes and green peas for
dinner, and after that 1t was only
question of consuming the vege-
tables. The surplus was disposed of
to a huckster who came around with
his wagon.
Among the pleasantest features of
the summer was getting UP with the
birds to gather the vegetables. and by
August l the invalid was replaced by
a blooming girl who was so strong and
well that even the doctor was satis-
fed.
College work was taken up in the
fall with the purpose Of making the
garden again the following season. but
the ground was disposed Of during the
winter and the new owner erected a
business block on the site.

TEACH CHILDREN
TO BE S0CIABLE

1t Is a mothers duty to give her
children fair start socially.
Many woman's life has been ruined
because her mother did not teach her
as a child to get on with people.
When child is small she should be
encouraged to bring home her little
school friends, as many as possible.
She should have little parties for them,
and this will teach her at an early
age her responsibilities as hostess.
The child who is shy should be thrown
in with other children as much as pos
sible. II it becomes necessary she
should even be sent to boarding school,
others.
Childhood is the time to form friend
ships and to form character. The wise
mother does not let her child grow UP
in any way that points to unhappiness

The brook moving mirror of their green.
Here wade the cattle in the sunset sheen,
Dappled by shadowings OF the leaves, that

The sense with beauty. Drowsed. and half

The great bull awes by his lordly mein;
Noble he stands-the monarch Of the
scene,
AS round him. ring by ring, the ripples

The breeze has winged to dells beyond our

Nor naoved the gilded arrow of the vane;
And shown against the glimpse of distant
blue,
Rich glow the apples on the orchard boughs:
while tripping barefoot down the quiet
lane,
The farmers little daughter calls the cows

If ice can be kept In a large woolen

A cUREEW FOR DOGS

Under a new order dogs are arrested
in England If they are found roaming
after dark. The first case was heard
at Highgate recently, when Mr. Stan
ley Smeeton of High street, MILESTONE
was fined 1 shilling pence for allow
ing his dog to stray at night.
The object of the rule, which provides
for a maximum penalty of $50, is to
prevent sheep and cattle from being
