top Is perfectly plain for nearly three
quarters of an inch, then, starting from
left to right at an angle Of nearly for
ty-five degrees. are alternate gouged
center panels and some delightful and

fixed at about 1900. 1t is of the sim

Exquisitely graceful is the set of four
Queen Anne candlesticks eleven and a

mond shaped prisms, the soulders
standing well away. and the candle
holder rising in a plain, long fat dia-
mond cut to the top, which is sur
mounted by a long. loose nozzle cut to
match, the edge of which is evidently
copied from the silver candiestick OF

JAP WOMEN LIKE TO GROW OLD.

wonder what they would say IL they
went to Japan and found some of my
countrywomen leaving their morning
bath or taking the first meal of the
day in ball dresses or afternoon gowns.
I think they would say that Japanese
women were quite mad" The OBJ
serving visitor also made criticisms of
the way American women wear the XII
mono. IF they must wear the XII
mono" said she. why don't they
fasten 1t as we fasten it, 1t should lap
over from left to right. not from right
to left. When a Japanese woman
walks her draperies must fall from left
to right. If American women delight
to wear Japanese clothes they should
wear them properly. Furthermore, in
Japan the older a woman grows the
shorter are the sleeves Of her kimono

age, and they do not care to shorten II

Another startling novelty of the mid
season is the apache hat. One of the
models that is being worn in Paris is
tains headdress. The feathers are
about eight inches long and at the
base are in the form of quilts, but curl
into soft tendrils at the top. They are
put on the hat in an even band, grad
ing a little lower in the back. This
feather trimming surrounds an extra
high turban of tulle or chiffon draped
into mound shape. There Is a slight
brim not over an inch in depth which
forms a base for the feathers.
The Hindoo turban. too, is one OF the
fall shapes, and scarfs can be utilized
to make a chapeau of this character.
All that is needed is a handsome scarf
and a wire frame the required shape.
The scarf is caught in front with an
immense buckle.

are the flowerpot hats of satiny straw

FRUIT SALADS
FOR SUMNER

Nearly all kinds of fruit lend them
selves to the making of salads The
growing popularity of these is ac-
counted for by the many ways in
which they may be combined, served
and garnished, and by the fact that
they can be made at any time of the
year from whichever fruit happens to
be in season-berries, pineapples and
peaches in summer, malaga grapes,
apples, oranges, celery and nuts in
winter.
For fruit salads cream dressings
with the sharp condiments omitted are
used instead of mayonnaise, while
cream whipped stiff gives a white
dressing that contrasts attractively
with the bright colored fruit Where
fruit and cream are not eaten to-
gether the stiffiy beaten whites of eggs
are substituted. The eggs should be
well favored with lemon and may be
tinted a delicate pink with cake or
fruit coloring.
addition Of a tiny bit of cinnamon or
some candied ginger gives the desired
spicy flavor.
olives, cream cheese crisp crackers
or rich cookies are proper accompani-
ments for salads.
Here is a fine breakfast salad, one
of the new wrinkles in cookery. TIC

WASHING DAY HINTS.

Glycerin will remove coffee and tea
stains from linen. Pour it over the
stained parts rub in well and wash in
the usual way.
When drying flannel blouses never
hang them near fire or they will
certainly shrink. The best way is to
hang them in a warm room away from
the fire or in a shady. windy place out
of doors.
When making hot starch add a level
teaspoonful of dry washing powder to
quart OF starch and the irons will
not stick.
most effective method of removing
mildew stains from linen is to rub soap
on the spots. then chalk and lemon
juice and bleach the garments in the

The refrigerator should be an i'm
portant object of the housewives at
tention in warm weather, for unless 1t
be taken care of persistently the health
of the family may be affected. A piece
of tainted meat will cause the destruc
ton of other food near it, and milk
and butter become under unfavorable
conditions active agents for breeding
fevers.
Twice a week everything should be
removed from the box and the inside
carefully wiped with a cloth wet in
strong ammonia water. Only one por
ton of the refrigerator Is done at a
time, and that thoroughly and quickly.
The best time for the cleaning Is be-
fore the arrival of the ice and the top
receptacle where the ice Is kept should
be cleaned first. The lining should be
wiped with cloth wrung. not dry, in
warm but not hot ammonia. Then
there should be a teakettle of boiling
water in which washing soda has been
dissolved, the spout to be held di-
rectly over the hole through which
the water drips and the stream poured
down as swiftly as can be without
flooding the ice chamber. The object
of the hot water flushing Is to Remove
any grease or tanned particles which
may have gone into the pipe, and If
the bath does not overflow into the
ice chamber the place will not become
heated. After flushing the lid should
remain up for two or three minutes
until all steam escapes.
In cleaning the lower sections one
side at a time is to be done and all
dishes taken out. Once a week is
often enough to remove the shelves
and IL they are stone 1t is better not
to take them out too often for they
lose their chill.

~ URING the past few years the
IA interest taken in old glass
IN has increased enormously.
kk@@ and, indeed. at the present
moment it is one Of the fads that is
having the greatest vogue. AS glass
is more fragile than silver. and as
there is every reason to believe that
the maids of long ago were just as
careless with household belongings as
they are now. there is. consequently,
less Of 1t to be found than Of silver. and
prices for the specimens unearthed are
going up every day.
For the beginner In glass collecting
there were until recently no marks to
guide her in the quest, as there are In
silver and china, but during the past
few years many delightfully."- interest
ing and instructive books have been
written on the subject. They are great
helps to those who wish to cultivate
the taste and form collections.
From a study of the illustrations and
the descriptions in the books much
may be learned to train the eye and to
gain experience in buying and also in
avoiding counterfeits. The beginner
will learn first to study the details in
the matter of shape, the color of the
metal and, above all. the ring" which
so far has not been initiated with sue
cess.

smartly dressed woman at the sea
shore recently wore a gown with a
distinct pointed basque effect and one
naturally shuddered to think that be-
fore winter such an effect might be-
come an established fact. In the gown
seen it was of foulard, a piping of
plain color outlining a long point at
the back on to the tunic and similar
point at the front. The waist was of
the surplice shape, the crossed over
sides that came below the shoulder
blades at the back and to the waist at
the front being finished with frills of
soft lace.

shows definite tendency to shorten
