!, HAT FACING IS DIFFICULT
Few Words on Subject That Causes Amateur Miliiner Much
 Anxiety.

Nothing Is more difficult to the amateur milliner than the facing of a hat-and nowadays every hat Is faced usually with silk or satin. A few words on the subject will not, there fore, come amiss.
 Cut from tissue paper a pattern that is rather larger than your required size, and fold and crease it until it ex- actly fits the hat 'brim Then cut out your velvet or satin form and baste in place. Always plenty of basting- remember that
 Then turn in the outer edge haste it down and blind stitch it. Use tiny stitches and leave absolutely no gaps. The silk facing may be plaited into shape, instead, and fastened down by a cord or braid or a velvet binding. The lace facings should be shirred around the crown, very full. to allow for the difference of circumference with the outer edge.
 Even hat facings are yelled nowa- days-tulle and chiffon over silk are frequently seen. Use extreme care, however, and even this delicate work will go of we'll

The Bathroom Rug.

Some sort of pretty rug Is neces- sary to put beside the bath tub to step out upon, and 1t is essential that 1t should be of some material in which the colors are well set. There are on sale cork mats and others which re- semble turkish toweling, except they are of heavy weight. but the rug to be made at home is frequently in de- mand.
 One is made of coarse basket can vas, with a plushlike center, the em- broidery being worked with thick in-- grain or colored cotton, and each stitch crossing over one thread of the material. The pattern may be work ed all over or merely as a border with a plain center, but when covered all over the mat will not be so likely to show discolorations of water.
 Odd lengths of brussels carpet may be turned to good account for mats. with a finish on the ends of worsted fringe or binding of heavy uphol- stery braid.

He often enriched the characters, seldom or never the incidents; even the characters he creates are usually sides of himself or humorous masks with out soul.

 Good furs are an excellent invest ment, for fur-bearing animals appear not to keep pace with the increasing demand for their skins.
 A steady advance in price from sea- son to season indicates that furs are growing beyond the reach of many people.

Still WorryinQ.

The experts are now dealing in an incredulous spirit with the signatures supposed to be Shakespeare's. Sir E. Durning-Lawrence disputes the gen. uineness of all five. What he has to say on the occurrences of the name in the will is curious. He finds the three very dissimilar The "W's" are all three differently shaped; the 'S's' there are only two-are different also; the ''h" In one case begins at the top and in the other at the bottom, which Is also the case with the fol- lowing "a,' while the ''k" and the 's' are as widely unlike as possible.
 What" he asks, "could have in- duced a man who really signed his name to his last testament to play tricks with the first letter of his Christian name And his contention is that the clerk who drafted the will wrote the names and varied the forms of the letters to indicate they were not autographs. The argument seems not unreasonable, for it more likely that a clerk writing another mans name should vary in the writing of it than one should who was writing his own.

THEY LEARN BY EXPERIENCE
Show That Animals Often Become Wiser Than Their Parents.

A German naturalist has been col lecting data to show that animals learn by experience. and thus, in some in stances, become wiser than their un instructed parents.
 Game animals of all kinds, it ap- pears, have learned the range of mod ern rifles. Greyhounds quickly learn to let rabbits alone, and foxhounds pay no attention to either rabbits or hares. Killer whales and gulls follow whaling vessels, just as vultures fol low an army. Crows begin to accom- pany the chamois hunter as soon as they have seen the result of his first successful shot, and rough-legged bug cards follow the sportsmen after winged game.
 The number of birds that kill or in- jure themselves by flying against tele- graph wires Is much smaller than it used to be- The fact Is also brought out that birds and quadrupeds have learned to disregard passing railway trains, as horses quickly cease to be frightened by automobiles. Instances of the intelligent selection exercised by sheep dogs are familiar to all.

Price of Ivory Increasing.

Ivory continues to make rapid galns in cost and may sooner or later be in a class with gold. At the sales in Europe the tremendous demand pushes up the price. The allotment for each sale seems % be the same, and with gaining consumption it is logical to expect price advance.
 This will continue until a substitute ivory is discovered or ivory is se- cured in greater quantities. Although we buy great many tusks for piano keys and use the very latest method of cutting and bleaching, the margin of profit in finished key ivory is ex- ceedingly small. With the best of skill in blocking the waste is enor- nous and there are many other de- tails in connection with key ivory manufacture that require time and money.

SHE TRIMMED HER OWN HAT
Pretty Girl Designed Neat Piece of Headgear but Left the Price
 Tag on the Feather.

Half a dozen pretty girls were dis cussing millinery. Said one of them, in reference to an absent friend: Her hats certainly are stunning and she trims all of them herself" Said an. other: q hope she may never have such an experience as had recently. My sense of humor enabled me to live through it, but I'd not like to see any one else have it I, also, trim my own hats.
 This fall I designed one that thought was about the most effective I ever had, though it was extremely simple. It consisted only of feath- CT and twist of velvet around the crown of big, stylish shape The first time wore 1t was to church l felt gratified to think that the eyes of the whole congregation were rest ing, at one time or another. on that hat, because the style was one to challenge attention and nobody could avoid seeing it. That is, nobody within radius of mile or so. When I returned home and removed the hat there was a large white ticket dang ling from almost the tip of the feath- er and on it was marked in large fig ures "35c." The ticket had been cun- ningly concealed underneath the feather, so that all the time I was trimming the hat never had seen it, but wearing the hat had jared the ticket into sight. I had picked up the feather at bargain counter. It was 8 showy one and really looked as if it might have cost two or three dol lars. Of course, had the pleasure of knowing that the whole congregation had read the price,"

JUST CASE OF BLUFF
PEEP BEHIND SCENES IN WASH,
 INGTON AN EYE-oPENER.
Women Are the Worst 6Iuffers of All When They Get to the Ma y tionaI Capital They Want to
 Be "ln Society,""

Everybody in Washington pretends
 he is on the most intimate terms with
 somebody just little bit higher in
 society. and nearly everybody has to run in debt to keep up the bluf, At the top of the social scale is the dip lomatic corps, who are supposed never to have to worry about money, and who spend all their time talking to pretty women and giving dinners. Bless your simple little heart, if you
 could only look behind the scenes and would open your eyes! The diplomats all blum each other. and each minister tries to make all the others believe that he Is the one man whom the pres ident really likes. And there are very few of them that don't economize when society isn't looking. And hash is hash whether in an embassy or S5-a-week boarding house.
 It is the women who are the great est buffers in Washington. because they are all crazy to be in society, and most of them have nothing to do but to amuse themselves. They come to Washington thinking that, because their husbands are congressman or government officials, the presidents wife is going to chum with them and diplomats will ask them to dinner two or three times a week. And when they have been in Washington week or two, and find out that they are very small toads in a very big nudd1o they boOin fo h11,f Thov ma Ira the other people at the boarding house sit up and take notice when they talk about dinner at the White House and tea at the embassy, which they know about as well as most people in Washington do. strictly from the out side, for the upper ten know only peo- pie W Id have been properly present ed" to them, and don't waste their time on the boarding house crowd.
 And so it goes up and down the scale. Society ins Washington is like in a compartment by itself. The con- gressman who lives on his salary isn't in 1t with the congressman who rich wife and has a big house. The senator is higher than the congressman, but, unless he has he doesn't count for much. | The member of the cabinet Is way up, | and he can work the bluff best of all, | for everybody has to be good to him, | and there are any number of people | who would be only too glad to pay his | rent if he would agree to invite them | to dinner once week.-Smart Set
