EVENING GOWNS

Many of the evening gowns of the
winter are trimmed with beads, a dec
grafton which is all very well when
it is all very well, but oftentimes eX-
tinguishes the wearer making her ap-
pear like the consort of a cannibal
king. Spangles and beads are en-
hancements to costumes that are safe
only in the hands of the most skillful
of modistes, and they, it is to be no.
ticed, are very moderate in their en-
ployment of them. Largely they flour
ish on ready-to-wear evening toilets
sold in the shops. which are given
much glitter and dazzle to deceive the
unwary into believing much elegance
has been purchased for comparatively
little outlay Only the young and glow
ing, whose charm can transcend any
garments, can indulge in sartorial dis
sipation in the way of sequin-covered
or entirely jetted gowns. And they
shouldn't, and usually cannot, luckily,
being under maternal supervision.

THINGS WORTH KNOWING
FOR CLEANING AT HOME
Valuable Hints About ShirtWaiSts,
Feathers and Lingerie

Before washing silk stockings they
should be soaked in cold water for
one-half hour and then washed in luke
warm water with good white soap.
Common laundry soap should not be
used. nor should the stockings be
ironed, as heat is apt to crack silk.
White silk shirt waists should always
be washed in tepid water. Warm
water will turn the silk yellow.
Cucumber anl almond cosmetics both
cleanse and white the skin.
To recurl an ostrich feather have a
teakettle full of boiling water and
shake the feather vigorously through
the escaping steam, being careful not
20 get it too damp. This freshens the
plume and restores brilliancy. Next
take a silver fruit knife and beginning
with the feathers nearest the quill take
a small bunch between the thumb and
forefinger and draw it gently over the
blade Of the knife. Follow this process
on each side of the tip and then comb
out the feathers carefully with very
coarse comb-and you will find your
oldplume as good as new.
A good way to scent lingerie and
blouses is to make drawer Innings of a
double fold of white muslin or silk
into which a pad of wadding is slipped
slightly perfumed with ones favorite
scent.

A JUDGE OF DIAMONDS

WCERKER and realize his judgment
is excellent. When he tells you stone
is perfect and good value you feel that
he has absolutely told you the truth.
Another thing, an important one at
that is YOU always save money when

Evening frocks have not emerged yet
from the effects of the tanagra drap-

Growing Strawberries.

Royal Stanton seems to have
solved the problem of how to get
a bed OF strawberries to bear year
after year without resetting, as it
is the usual experience for the
berries to run out after two years.
While he takes good care of his
patch he makes a special point to
allow no runner to attach itself to
the soil, and for the purpose of
cutting these runners he has cir
cular saw blade that is of sufficient
size to cover the plant, and clip
ping all the growth surrounding
it. His theory is that the old
plant renews itself each year, and
by the runners being removed no
strength is taken from it. He
says the dying leaves of the old
plant serve as a good mulch for
the new. Mr.. Stanton brought in
some lucious berries and while
these vines have borne now for
six years the crop this year is as
big as ever.

In the Panama Zone.

While at Panama William Jennings
Bryan learned that he carried the ca
nal zone by large majority. There is
considerable speculation as to the cause
OF this. Was it due to the fact that
the employees are picked men. Or is it
because they were free from the coer.
clon practiced by the big corporations
in the States? Or was it because their
employers could take an unbiased view
OF the situation? Or should We credit
1T 20 the influence of the d;stinctivelv
Democratic member of the commits
sion. the genial and popular ex-Sena-
Tor. Blackburn, whose resignation is
so universally regretted by the en-
ployes?
