CURVES NO LONGER IN STYLH
Decree Of Fashion is That Woman
Must Be PerpendcuIarly
Parallel.

This is the season of the Disao-
pearance Figure.
Figures-as figures-are no more.
They make excellent clothes props, or
pillow-case advertisements. But as
figures their day is done.
Venus has now vanished. Not by
sleight-of-hand or force of circum-
stances, but by word of mouth. The
decree of fashion has gone forth, and
Venus has bowed to the inevitable.
Not only has she mislaid her arm; she
has now lost her shape. TIE curves
and contours of yesterday have be-
come the lines and angles of today.
Women have gone back decade.
They have discarded their corsets and
curves; their broad shoulders and mar
row waists. They are now perpendi-
cularly parallel, from head to heels.
In brief-they are waistless.
We do all we can nowadays to hide
our figures. II Nature has blessed
or cursed-us with a few fascinatiA
curves, we rush to the nearest Disap-
pearing- g-Figure-Factory. and purchase
casing to fill the unnecessary spaces.

brown hair, and all the intermeqate
shades or tones that gradually lea6-tc
auburn, red, deep gold, pale gold and
drab and then to ash blonde, will find
the selection of a band as interesting
as the selection of hat. All of them
may be sure that black looks well,
bringing out the wonderful colors
which nature seems to delight in Civ
ing to human hair. The band is not
necessarily of a contrasting color. The
possessor of copper colored hair may
achieve color harmony with copper
color and green or copper color and

Of soft ribbon covers up lot of un-
sightliness. The soft rosette at the

nice for night wear.

PLANT TREES.

II in 75 years the present supply OF
timber In this country will be exhaust
ed, at the present rate of consumption.
the admonition to plant trees becomes
eloquent with meaning. There is
great value In trees, says the Kansas
City Times. The big lumber fortunes
have been made in the main, not In
buying and selling lumber. nor even
in manufacturing lumber for sale, but
in buying vast tracts of timber land
and holding them for the Inevitable
advances in timber prices incident to
the rapidly decreasing supply. Now,
It would not profit any man or cor
poration to buy large areas OF land
that could be profitably used for agri-
culture. fruit growing or grazing, and
set them in trees; but 1t would be
profitable for all who own timber
lands that could not be prof1tably
used for other purposes to maintain
them as permanent forests, using
only the matured trees and cutting
them and clearing the slash in such a
way as to give the best possible pro-
lection to the immature timber. AL
so, it would be profitable to every
owner of land to plant trees on any
part of it that cannot be utilized for
other purposes. If this great nation
could inspire its landholders with
this one purpose for given time, to
the end that all land that should be
planted with trees would be so plant
ed, the problem of the future lumber
supply would be solved.

Lace Watch Fobs.

Lace watch fobs are very dainty.
They are also new, and a charming
adjunct to the light frock. The girl
who is deft with her fingers should be
able to make one easily at home. For
this, remnants of Irish or Cluny In
sertion may be utilized. The strips of
insertion are folded over the gold or
brass catch, which may be bought for
fobs. and the end is pointed and fin
ished with white silk tassel. The
girl with a military friend from whom
she may beg souvenirs might substi-
tute for the while tassel one of gold
strands such as Is worn on a sword.

If pan is burned or blackened,
rub the inside of it with hard crust
of bread dipped in salt and afterward
wash it with hot soda and water.
Add a little soda to the water in
which you wash your plates and
dishes. The soda loosens the grease
on them and gives the china a good.
shiny surface.
Be very careful to keep the lids of
saucepans clean, for the flavor Of one
dish may cling to lid which has not
been washed and spoil a second dish
which is prepared in the same pan.
Wash a saucepan in plenty of hot
water; but never wash cake tins or
frying pans. Wipe them well with a
piece of paper, which is afterward
burned, and polish them with a dry
cloth.
Here are few rules 1t would be
we'll to cut out and paste in your
kitchen. They are hints about wash
ing, and will give much success in the
affairs of that very important region
of the home.
Pudding cloths. jelly bags and so
on should be we'll washed, scalded
and hung up to dry. II is not neces-
sary to iron them. but they should be
smoothed and folded before they are
replaced in the drawer.
Stand saucepans, fish kettles, etc.
in front of the fire for few minutes
after washing them, so that they may
be thoroughly dried inside. This
makes them last longer and helps to
keep them in good condition.

Walnut Catsup.

There are various recipes for ma
king this relish. The following will
be found a good one: Select fine firm
nuts; they are best when fresh and
soft. Pound them well, reducing them
to pulp, then put to soak in vinegar
enough to we'll cover. Add to this
after two hours two tablespoonfuls
of salt, one teaspoonful of horserad-
ish, one teacupful of mustard seed and
garlic, two ounces of allspice, two
ounces of cloves, two ounces of nut
meg, one ounce of black pepper and
two ounces of celery seed. Boil all for
an hour Then strain through a hair
sieve and bottle, sealing the covers.

The treasure chamber beneath the
palace of Necessidades, Lisbon, Por-
tugal, has been opened and examined
by the minister of public works at the
request of King Manuel, who feared
for the safety of the crown jewels and
certain personal property of the royal
family. The jewels and valuables
were found In the underground cham
ber intact. An inventory showed
them to be worth upward Of s3,000,000
Among the jewels was the diadem Of
ex-Queen Amelie and necklace given
her by her father, the Compte de
Paris, valued at 100000. There was
found also table service Of solid Ger
man silver, weighing over a ton, also
a crown and scepter of gold studded
with precious stones; also several
bricks of gold, the largest weighing
45 pounds. The minister OF finance
announces that all valuables which
are the private property of Manuel
and his mother will be returned to
them. Those belonging to the state.
such as the crown and scepter will
be placed in the national museum.

ChlIdren's Hair Ribbons.

They are larger than ever.
To please the youngsters they must
be stiff and perky.
Plain colors will always be regula-
ton. both for morning and afternoon
wear in the hair.
There is decided preference for
plaids and stripes for school hours.
A good deal of smartness is given
to plain frock by topping 1t with a
striking contrast of colors.
blue serge. for example, looks
vastly better II a big blue, red and
green plaid hair ribbon catches the
eye at the same time.
Plaids are not suitable for after
noon.
When a little miss changes her
dress for the afternoon she may wear
a flowered ribbon in her hair II she
likes.

N VERY one with an eye for beau
ty values in the new styles will
want hair band. The hair band
is not novelty, but it is a revival
which, for two reasons, has been
steadily gaining ground in favor.
Those consummate judges of the
beautiful and artistic-the ancient
Greeks-show us, in what remains of
their art, that their women bound up
their hair with bands, and the Greek
coiffure, like the Greek architect, still
stands the most excellent of all
achievement in it's line, writes Julia
Bottomley in the Illustrated Milliner.
The demand for the band has become
so general that bands of many de-
scriptions and styles, designed for
women of various ages, compilations
and build, are now manufactured and
put on the market, all ready to adjust
to the head.
There are plain black bands of vel
vet or silk ribbon, finished with plain
fiat bow, or a rosette for morning wear,
which means also that they are ap-
propriate for the business woman dur
ing her working hours. They fasten
with one or two hooks and eyes, and
are not confined to black but are
shown in black with a little silver or
white, or in white with black markings
suitable for very gray hair.
The hair band supports the hair
which, as the day wears on, has a
tendency to sag, unless provided with
some artificial support. 1t keeps the
"scolding locks" from flying loose and
struggling about the neck and face.
The charm of neatness is hardly Sec
ond to that of beauty, amt has beau
ty Of it's own, which has been known to
win out over very beautiful but sloppy"
creatures. Besides these virtues the
hair band is becoming. If the hair is
dull and lifeless, the band brightens It.
The older ladies with beautiful white
hair, understand the life and sparkle
resulting from the vivid contrast Of
the black velvet band, or one Of vivid
green. The glow of silver strands or
the sparkle of cut steel or rhinestones
on the band makes the white coiffure
a thing of distinction and beauty which
is different from any other. The black
hair, that is lacking in the luster and
shine" essential to beauty in dark
shades, borrows brilliancy from gold

A man in New Jersey was lately ar
rested for assaulting a neighbor. But
1t developed later that the assailant
had been run over by his own auto
mobile, driven by the neighbor. AS 1t
would have been clearly superhuman
self-control which would have checked
an attack under the circumstances,
the assault was condoned by a law
recognizing the limitations of human
nature.

The charm of the quaint, old fash
ioned fichu is not to be denied, and
this summer fichus are to be much
worn with frocks Of thin, summery
material This fichu Of white tucked
batiste and embroidery is combined
with a broad sailor collar and the
whole arrangement fastens at the
throat with an old fashioned brooch,
the folds of the fichu being drawn
down and pinned at the belt line. One
reason for the almost universal be-
comingness of the fichu is its v
shaped arrangement at the neck. The
V'd neck opening is much more apt to
be fattering to the face above it than
the round Dutch neck.

Some peculiar rights are being set
tied in New York. A man recovered
nearly $1,000 damages from police
man for clubbing him because the
man in question kicked in his own
door. AS the mans wife had request
ed the policeman's interference, she
having locked the kicked-in door,
this decision for damages looks like
a desperate stand on the part of mere
man to avoid being kicked out of do
mestic supremacy.

Women are generally coming to a uni
form dress. We are nearer that point now
than we have ever been before think that
it is safe to predict that the next genera
ton will see women wearing as sensible
and durable costumes as do men now. The
two-piece suit which has been in style for
women for the last ten of fifteen years
is a long step in the right direction.
1t is not likely that woman will ever
entirely forego the frills and furbelows
which have been considered her preroga-
tive since time imaemorial. 1t is not de-
sirable that she should. She will. however.
