Corset Covers.

The well fitting corset cover con-
tributes largely to the success of the
blouse or the gown. Here are two,
both of which are desirable. The
tucked one will appeal to the women
who like perfect smoothness above
the waist line, while the gathered one
is desirable for those of more slender
figure. The tucked cover includes
shield sleeves, and is made with
round neck, while the gathered cover
is sleeveless and made with a square
neck. All the materials that are used
for garments of the sort are appro-
pirate. AS illustrated, however. the
tucked corset cover is made of batiste
embroidered in French style, while
the gathered corset cover Is made of
lawn trimmed with embroidery and
narrow frills. Dotted and cross
barred muslins are used as well as
the plain ones, and some women like
Habutal silk for the purpose
Both corset covers are made with
fronts and back, but the tucked cor
set cover is heightened over the
shoulder to form the shield sleeves.
The fronts are laid in tucks at the
lower edges that are stitched fiat. The
gathered corset cover is simply full,
regulated bymeans of beading thread

suYragettes Favor Filtration.

The question whether married
couples should fiirt is now agitating
suffragettes in England. Lady Nc
Laren, author; Lady Troubridge and
Mrs. Elizabeth York Miller, author,
all agree that Irritation is an excellent
thing, provided it Is confined to the
family. They do not think that a
man should flirt with another wom-
ans husband. They believe only in
Irritation between husband and wife.
Concerning this kind of Irritation Mrs.
Miller pungently says: Flirting
ought to be spontaneous; nothing
could be more ridiculous than mar
ried people flirting determinedly.
Husbands should firt with their
wives, as women miss Irritation more
than men after matrimony. Flirta-
ton consists in an occasional kiss, a
frequent holding of hands, spirit
of tenderness and chivalry, and a
study of the others interests and
feelings. Filtration is the panacea
OF all married peoples troubles. All
husbands and wives should cultivate
it,

Marriage superstitions.

BLESSED is the bride that the sun
shines on"
A bride should use no pins in her
wedding clothes, and she should
avoid looking in the glass when she is
completely dressed for church.
The wedding ring should not be
tried on before the service, and to
take it off afterward is unlucky.
IF you marry in Lent you will live
to repent" May is an unlucky month
for weddings, and June and october
are specially lucky.
1t is an old Yorkshire custom to
pour hot water over the doorstep
after the happy couple have departed,
in order to keep the threshold warm
for another bride.
When the bridesmaids undress the
bride they must be careful If she have
any pins about her to throw them
away. A single pin left might cause
her ill-luck. And if bridesmaid
keep one of those pins she need not
expect to be married before the next
Whitsuntide, or Easter at the very

The Swiss President.

The new President has been in
Office for nearly two months, but not
one in every hundred of those re-
turning from winter sports in Swift
erland could give his name, as the
Swiss President is not encouraged to
occupy the supreme place filled by
the heads of other great republics.
He is elected for one year, and during
that time he is looked upon as the
chairman of the Federal Council of
seven. The President for 1910 is M.
Robert Comtesse, who is the chief of
the republic for the second time, hav-
ing previously occupied the Presiden-
cy in 1904. M. Comtesse is Neu-
chatel man, born at the pretty little
place called Valengin, near the Grand
Sigral-one of the famous points of
view near Neuchatel. After a course
of law in Heidelberg and Paris he re-
turned to his native canton and prac-
ticed as lawyer. Taking to politics
he gave himself to the study of in
dustrial and commercial questions.

marked success.

At dinners and also at formal
luncheons it is good idea to watch
the plates of neighbors, and if one
person has been talking so much as
to have fallen behind in the course it
is tactful to take conversation into
ones own hands, giving the other a
chance to listen and at the same time
to eat.
1t is not good form to monopolize
the attention of one neighbor to such
an extent as to prevent him or her
from talking with the person On the
other side. Often it Is a temptation
when ON one side is an attractive per
son and on the other one who is dull,
but politeness makes dividing the at
tention necessary.
II one person is kept constantly in
conversation by one neighb0r at a
dinner it means that he or she on
the other side sits much of the time
with no one to talk to, for the guest
farther on is certainly giving some
time to the person on his or her other
side.-New York Telegram.

Mushrooms and Chicken.

Cut the stems from ten mediums
sized fresh mushrooms. Remove the
gills and peel neatly. As soon as
peeled drop them into a bowl of cold
water. The flavor will be much i'm
proved if to the water has been added
the juice of one lemon. Chop the
mushroom stems very fine. Mix with
them one small white onion well
chopped. Place them in a saucepan
in which has been melted a heaping
teaspOonful of butter. Cook for two
or three minutes and then add the
mushroom stems. Cook slowly tor
five minutes. Season with pepper
and salt to taste. Take off the stove
and mix with the mushrooms.
Mince tender parts Of chicken,
preferably the white meat. A cupful
will be required. Push through a
sieve. Mix with it two TABLESPOONS
fuls of butter cut into fine pieces.
Mix thoroughly. Beat the whites of
two eggs and moisten the meat with
this, stirring we'll. Season strongly
with salt and pepper. Keep on ice
until chilled. Mix with it teacupful
of whipped cream. Fill the mush-
rooms with this mixture Place them
in buttered pan. Place them in an
oven and cover with buttered paper.
Bake until firm. Serve with either
tomato or cream sauce. The latter
is more delicate and is usually pre-
ferred for this dish in the South

We kneel our roadside fire to light.

A Fine Effect Secured.

The alliance of foulard and satin is
one of the most noticeable features in
the new seasons fashions The color
of the satin is usually suggested by
the pattern on the foulard, and black
satin, too, takes prominent place in
the new combination. A handsome
costume shows black satin used in
combination with black and white
foulard. The satin forms the deep
hem which comes to the knees al
most, satin in soft folds swathes the
/, waistline, and it is used for the lower
part of the sleeves.
A narrow line of the black satin
also borders the top of the corsage
below short vest and collar of white
, mousseline de sole.
The foulard bodice is cut in one
with the upper sleeves, and an inset
of cabochons in smoky shades of blue
centres the front with pretty effect.
These cabochons in small round sizes
are used as border above the hem
and round the corsage, while band
of lace in a new shape comes round
the bodice on the left side and runs
down the front of the skirt to the
side, where it is caught up with a
large blue cabochon.
The hat is in the black satin, the
! white, black and blue shades of the
dress being introduced in the ostrich
plume. The new shoulder wrap
which accompanies the gown is in
black. shot with blue. the ends
weighted with heavy silk tassels.
Foulard is also being used with
heavy crepe de chine with good eff
feet. In trousseau gown made for
one of the society brides of this week
there was a beautiful little girl
dress made in foulard in a soft rose
shade of pink, traced with the tiniest
of pink spots in pale shade and
pink crepe de chine.
The baby bodice, slightly gathered
to the figure under a round frill of
flesh-colored pink tulle at the neck,
was encircled at the waistline with
folds of the crepe de chine. A line of
tiny fiat buttons, covered with the
crepe de chine, ran down the centre

Status of Women.

Gently delivered an address on "The
Legal Status Of Women in New Jer-

frage Society, in which she held that
the early right of suffrage possessed
by women of New Jersey still existed.
Mrs. Wood advised the women of
New Jersey to go to the polls to
register, and if prevented to take the
case to court. They must be pre-
pared to fight the case to the Su-
preme Court of the United States,
where she did not believe they would
fail. Mrs. Wood is lawyer practic-

The Finishing Touch.

No Chinese lady goes anywhere
without her powder box, or fails to
touch her face with powder whenever
she catches sight of herself in the bit
of mirror in the lid of her box. When
she is going out for formal call or

to paint her face with a paste made
of wet rice flour.-Home Notes.

Women Who Listen Carefully.

The person who can talk entertain
ingly and listen attectively is the best
type of guest at social gatherings, for
she who clatters necessarily is al
most more undesirable than one who
is too quiet-for the latter gives OPP
portunity for other persons to express
themselves, while the former to say
even one word is often a struggle.
The balance between these ex-
tremes is the art of stimulating
temporary companion to conversation,
and at no place is it more important
to adopt the correct attitude than at
a dinner More than one man has
been obliged to talk so much when
sitting beside a quiet woman that he
has not eaten enough. Such conduct
on the part of woman IS decidedly
inconsiderate, for if she is not willing
to add her quota to the evenings en-
tertainment she should stay at home.
