Company Manners.

Some people keep all their lovable ways
for outsiders.
They don't think it necessary to nut on
an Interested manner when the home peo-
pie are talking.
What is said goes in at one ear and
out at the other''-sO that it really seems
scarcely worth while to tell them things.
They know how to be sympathetic-but
they don't practice it at home.
They would agree that
ITO be truly kind is to do and say
The kindest thing in the kindest way
But the kind things they do at home are
generally done grudgingly and of neces-
sity.
hey make an effort to be interesting
and amusing away from home-but no ef-
fort at home. That sort OF thing never
pays.
Pleasant manners and pleasant talk
need practice. If you put them away like
the talent in the napkin you'll be lucky
IL you find them in any sort Of working
order when You want them. Whereas il
you use them they will grow.-Home Chat.

SPRING NECKWEAR STYLES
ARE IN EFFECTIVE DESIGNS

such an accessory is almost j necessity.
OF such accessories Irish crochet usually
forms the strip, while the frill may be of
finest lawn and val lace. Or if desired
batiste embroidery and the frill edged
with baby Irish crochet. In fact, COM
bnatiOns of trimmings are the rule. One
often sees net, lace and lawn in a small
accessory.
1t is Il noticeable fact that nearly all
the new neckwear has Il touch of color.
Delicate shades, of course, but always
trace in some tone.
OF the many fashionable tiDts, blue is
the favored, and the Japanese and water
blues are preferred TO the genuine color,
and so are the lavender blues.
In making the tab stocks arrange the
white one next the face unless sure of
ones complexion. OF course, the chosen
color may be becoming, but white next
the skin Will always make il look clear.
There are some handsome specimens of
black neckwear among the advance
styles, not necessarily mourning, but such
as one might like to add TO a black or
and the desire is to give tone and distinc
ton.
In the construction of such an accessory
chiffon lisse and finest mousseline de sole
are employed. The stock foundation IS
carefully boned and then covered with
the material in tiny tucks or embroidered.
The dependent jabot is frilled on both
sides and sewed all around strip of jet
ted embroidered material. The jet Is
set in only the Highest effects.
For instance, the band may be deco
rated with the tiniest beads or the edge
row of small bugles the old fashioned
smooth kind. but seldom will both band
and frill display the jet.

PUT PLEDGE IN WRITING
Catholic Bishop Issues Instructions
to Practitioners Through Priests
of Pittsburg Diocese.

PITTSBURG. February 1S.-In letter
to priests Of the Pittshurs diocese
Bishop Cauevin says:
According to the custom now APPROX
ed by the church, the betrothal or
formal promises OF marriage should be
made in writing and signed by both
parties and by the parish priest or
bishop. Private and informal engage
ments are not prohibited or declared un-
lawful but the church accepts only
solemn and formal espousals made in
writing.
Since the primary end of marriage is
that children may be born and educated.
the husband or wife who shirks this duty
from improper motive or in any UNI
awful way defeats the end of marriage,
violates the right of children to be born
and to live. and reduces the family TO an
unnatural and unchristian level
The bishop recommends early marriage,
forbids the marriage of persons OF op-
posed creeds and declares the husband
the head of the family.

want to describe some of the new 1910
spring neckwear because many of the
patterns are so expensive that unless
women can duplicate them at home they
cannot afford to possess the latest de-
signs.

Quisite shade Of blue verging on the blue

This supported a double tab i'll the cen

other In blue. They. were pointed and
carefully knife pleated. the pleats facing
each other. Both collar and tabs were
edged with narrow baby Irish. The white
tab displayed a border of blue dots and
the blue tab was decorated with white
dots.
OF course, this model could be carried
out exactly II one had plenty OF time,
but a good effect could be obtained much
quicker by buying the co,lar-a plain
linen with scalloped edges-and a couple

The handkerchiefs should be cut dag

embroidered first. AS one handkerchief
