ACCESSORY TO COSTUME.


Bits of tapestry are bling used to
form very smart-looking accessories
this season. says Grace Margaret
Gould in the Woman's Home Com
panion. "A cordeliere bag made of tap
estry and mounted in dull silver with
such long silk handles that h bag
reaches far below the knees is a much
to-be-desired dress accessory. OF
course, the older and rarer the tapestry
the more the bag is priced.
When a tapestry bag is being car
ried as a finishing touch of a costume 1t
Is well to introduce just a bit of the
same tapestry somewhere in the gown,
perhaps in o~dd-shaped revers. in the
belt or even for the crown of the high
close-ftting hat.
FLOWERS, as a dress accessory, are
very much the vogue, but they are
flowers of a new sort which fashion is
favoring. Silk and satin and chiffon
are used in making them n indeed
they are very lovely. However, the
majority do not follow the natural
blooms In their colorings. There are
blue-gray roses and fat little rosebuds
in shaded tones of violet, but they pro-
duce Just the smartest effects. Some
times one large rose is used to fasten
the sirdle at the left side, or in an eve
ming frock, a tunic Of chiffon is caught
with a trailing vine of satin and chiffon
flowers"

NEHDLEwoRK A LOST ART.


II is rather the fashion to decry such
home arts as needlework; 1t is old
fashioned and waste Of time when one
can buy things so cheaply-so the
young girl of the present day say
She would not think Of spending long
hours In embroidery when MACHINE
made strips are SO easily obtaiAable.
But our grandmothers took delight In
such delicate work, and though 1t Is
said that early Victorian minds and
were insufferably dull and life
less, yet they must have found much
quiet happiness in their pursuits. How
they found favor in the yes OF hus-
bands and brothers may be CLEANED

day. 1.-THE delicate toll of the needle"
Nathaniel Hawthorne called It in Tho

derive q pleasure incomprehensible to

WAYS OF REMOVING STAINS.


A preparation which has repeatedly
been found successful in cleaning coat
collars that have become soiled, and
taking out other grease stains, is the
following mixture of benzine. chloro-
form, alcohol AMI cologne. A half-pint
of deadorized benzine, a half a
dram of chloroform, the same amount
of alcohol and a little good cologne,
mixed and applied with a piece of silk,
will remove these stains.
When washing black silk or other
black goods, a tablespoonful of this
preparation added to each gallon OF
water used will prove effectual In
freshening it up.
Turpentine a be used to take
grease stains out of black silk, If blot

THE FUTURE GENERATION.

We seem to bother ourselves about
the future almost more than we do
about the present generation. Sooioi-
ogists and other folk are always telling
us what future men and women will be
like, and fidgeting over the mental and
physical condition of our descendants.
Sufficient unto the day is the evil there
of. What Is the use of worrying about
the girls and boys we shall never
know? We may be quite sure each ago
can look after itself. However. those
who will torture themselves with
imaginary peeps behind the veil Of the
future are beginning to predict that the
women of even the e generation win
not be so mentally efficient as those
of today. The physical training of the
present time is said to be diminishing
mental energies, and 1t is predicted
that we are tending to rear q race Of
Amezons.
