Irish Centerpieces.

OF all the different styles of embroidery
on centerpieces, doilies and lunch cloths
Irish embroidery is the most serviceabie
IT will stand twice the wear and tear that
any other kind will endure, and after
wears use will look as fresh and well
as when it was new. The work is slightly
padded. and stands out from the linen.
the padding often being done with tiny
bits Of raw cotton or else filled in with
darning thread. Over this the embroidery
is worked in the satin stitch, sometimes
having the edge Of the pattern done in
the outline stitch, which gives little
more firmness to the work. Edges are
either hemstitched or finished with a
scallop that is buttonholed over slight
padding Fringed edges are not service
able and are no longer fashionable. A
centerpiece and set of half dozen doilies
make an ideal gift for the bride.

Goats Milk.

Goats milk is now frequently prescribed

drink as much as possible and 1t is used
in nearly all the cooking. While foreign

about Rose. She will put on that terribly
sweet manner when she goes out any
where. do hate affectation.'
$50 do I. like any one who is always
the same-always natural 1t is so silly
to pretend to be nicer than you are just
because there are lot Of people around
/ wonder II the two girls who criticised
Rose so glibly would also decry any one
because she put on better clothes for an
evening gathering than she would wear
about the house in the morning or down
town shopping.
can't really believe that they would.
And yet wouldn't that be just as logical
as criticising Rose because she has a
pretty company manner, as well as pretty
company clothes?
The reason l sneak of this is because
have so often heard, not only Rose but
many other girls like her, disparaged for
putting themselves out in order to be
especially gracious and entertaining and
cordial in company.
The critics call this affected They sheer
with an evident sense of superiority at
the company manner and pride them
selves on the fact that they never put
themselves out to please any one, out are
always just the same
Now / can't see any reason for PRIDE
in that, any more than one would nave
reason for self-gratulation in the fact
that one never put ones self out to dress
prettily for special occasions.
1 can't see that a company manner is
necessarily any more an affectatlon than
a company gown.
OF course, il Rose were disagreeable
and ungracous at home and with her in
Inmates, and then put on sn extremely
gracious manner in company. there would
be reason to complain. Just as 1t would
not be desirable to go around looking like
a slattern all day and then dress gorge
ously for company in the evening.
But Roses home manners are just as
pleasant if not so dressy, as her company
manners.
And anyway / think ones quarrel in
such a case ought to be with the dis
agreeab BILE manner or the slatterliness, not
with the gracious manner or the pretty
clothes.
Why, 1 wonder, by the way. do we al
WAYS say put on" Of anything nice?
WHY don't we say that people put on
their disagreeable ways and then lapse
back into their natural amiabl selves in
stead of always the other way around?
To return to the main road, think any
one who calls a pretty company manner
affected is herself anectlnS an oVerdone
dislike of affectation.
Myself l can't see anything affected or
to be criticised in any one who wears the
simple and plain but attractive clothes
of pleasant family manners in the fam
ily and dresses up in the special gowns
of company manners for special occa-
sions.
Can you?

q Manager MCAleer has practically de-

spring training next year at Ponce de
Leon Park, Atlanta. Ga, where they
got into shape last spring. Several
persons have touted the good spring
weather conditions of Washington, and
it is not improbable that the Nationals
boss will keep the team here next year.
Though Atlanta was fairly satisfac-
tory, and the Nationals started the sea-
son in pretty good shape. much dissat-
isfaction was felt among the players
because 1t was almost impossible to get
up a good perspiration there. Ball play

off weight, and at Atlanta this was
found to be difficult

was charged with getting the athletes
into condition for the seasons work.
These same winds put kinks in the

Gently recovered from his Stif back, the

The failure of the Atlanta manage
ment to work in harmony with the
Washington club in the matter of young
players also may have something to do
with McAleers decision.
Ray Morgan, the new infielder from
Danville. Va, arrived today and al
most Immediately obtained a few days

In Baltimore. He has not been home
since March. and Manager McAleer had
no hesitation in letting him take a few

two runs to the bad, Jack Lelivelt came
up for Street and plastered a single to
right. ''Dorf" Ainsmith came up for
Bobby Groom and hammered a safe
one to left. The huge crowd, which
