Useful Card Prirss.

A recent hostess gave as prizes to a bridge party book that had proved a household friend to her. It was a manual containing recipes for all sorts of repairs and stain removing. with other useful household information.
 As the binding of these books was anything but handsome she covered each one herself with glazed English chintz in gay patterns This could be wiped or with damp cloth whep soiled.
 She had the title of the book printed on a decorative label and pasted on the outside cover.
 The cost of these prizes was small and they will prove of lasting use to the women who receive them.
 Almost every bousekeeper has one such book by which she goes. and the idea of making it artistic and giving it to her friends should prove enticing

Making rhina, Hum h Roms.

The Romans had three recognized methods of applauding-the bombus. the imbrices and the testae. The word bombus did not carry any allusion 10 explosives. On the contrary. this form of applause was the most decorous. in asmuch as it consisted merely of q bumUing or buzzing noise. Thus in a way the Romans were the first ito make things hum" in a public assem- bly. The bombus was not the chief feature the Romans had to offer in the way of applause. The imbrices meant a demonstration made with the hollow of the hands. The testae meant the striking together of the fat portions of the hands From this we may con ciude that the Romans clapped. but there is nc certainty on this point New York Herald.
