spoke for sixty hours. This was not

OLD TIME MANNERS.

suddenly upon such directions as this:
"'Tis not manners as soon as you
are set at Table to bawl out. I eat
none Of this. eat none of that. care
for no Rabbit: love nothing that
tastes Of Pc 2er. Nutmeg. Onyons.'
etc.
After stating that 'some have been
80 refined in Foreign parts that they
will neither be covered, nor sit with
their backs to the picture of an emf

remark that there are some who eat
with that eagerness and Impotence.

UNIQUE DOOR KNOCKERS.

There is a fancy now for collecting
old door knockers such as II ancestors
delighted in before the day of electric
buttons.
So popular has become this knocker
collecting that many antique dealers
are reproducing famous knockers of
colonial and earlier dates.
1t adds zest to a ramble in old parts
of a city or to motoring in country
districts to be ON the look out for
knockers of former days. The eagle
was a favorite model for early Aineri-
can knockers; also grotesque heads and
wierd animals from whose mouths
hung rings to serve for arousing the
household.
Many historic knockers of England
and America have been copied for mod
ern houses, among them the famous
sanctuary knocker of Durham Cathe-
dral and the lion-faced knocker which

DRAWN WORK.

If something new be your aim in
matter of the ornamentation of a
blouse, drawn work is suggested by
some of the most successful makers as
an effective relief from the perennial
insertion or embroidery.
The coarse meshes so much in use
this season offer stability and an un-
usual GOODNESS, to which Characters
tics is added the easy drawing quail
ity.
When marquisette or voile is drawn
and worked with "a linen thread in
some of the simpler drawn-work pat
terms, the decorative value is wonder
fully increased. Squares, ines and
pointed plastrons are ~attainable. and
when the whole blouse Is built over a
contrasting color to bring it into har-
mony with the skirt, the result is de-
cidedly successful.

For AN EVENING GOWN.

To fnish the upper edge of "a 1ounce
on a delicate white frock there is sug-
gested a new. idea in a spray of silk
flowers.
A long and trailing tendril made of a
m%illiner's fold of delicate pink satin is
tackled along the line of joining where
the chiffon or tulle flounce is fastened
to the skirt.
Hanging from this at distances of
three or four inches are single rose
buds, the smallest imaginable. made of
pink ribbon and each one attached to
a leaf made of delicate, narrow green
ribbon.
Now. at wider intervals, and reach
ing upward from the long tendrils,
there appear wandering sprays of the
same pink silk fold ending with "A tiny
pink bud.
On the same frock the sleeve is
finished with a similar handmade
decoration and the shoulder line below
the sub-yoke.

About > ounces of bread crumbs,
about . ounces of finely chopped cooked
ham,. tongue or meat, one level tea
spoonful of made mustard, two or three
tablespoonfuls of stock or milk, 1 ounce
of butter, about six new laid eggs. Mix
the crumbs and ham with a dust of salt
and pepper and put about three table,
.spoonsful of it on one side. Mix the re-
mainder with the mustard, the butter
(Which must first be gently melted). and
enough hot milk or stock to make a

shells, spread them thickly inside with
the prepared paste, following it out in
the centre. Break an egg carefully in
to each shell, sprinkle it over with the
dry mixture, and put a few bits of but

FOR WHITE HANDS.

If you would avoid red and rough
hands never subject them to extremes
of temperatures Neither very cold nor
very hot water is good for them. Wear
wooden gloves and carry a muff in cold
weather.
The roughness on the left forehnger,
caused by continued catching of the
skin with the needle when sewing, can
be readily removed by rubbing with a
piece of pumice stone, which, by the
way, should be kept on hand nea the
wash basin.
Whenever the hands are washed it
should be lone thoroughly. Have we
not all seen persons, who ought to
know better, dab their hands into water
or hold them under the faucet for a
minute or two, then proceed to wipe
the dirt into the towel?
Children should be trained in these
matters of the toilet; soap, water and
a brush. with a liberal application of
energy, will render the smudgiest little
fist fit to be presented to the keen-eyed
caller without any preliminary hiding
of hands in pockets and chino backs.
It is a wise precaution in winter to
rub a little talcum powder into the
hands after washing them
