Protecting the Seals.
Cleveland Plain Dealer.

From the Cleveland Plain Dealer.
The ratification of the fur seal treaty
in the closing days of Congress is de-
serving of high commendation. BY
this agreement Japan, Great Britain,
Russia and the United States bind
themselves to prevent the killing OF
seals .or i've years. Without some such
compact the seals of Alaska would
cave been exterminated in a com.a a.
lively few years.
The seal herd has been reduced from
it's former millions 10 auou, .Av,vuu. :.
the constant depredat tions. There is
considerable sentiment In protecting
these animals from extinction. But
there is also a practical reason tor
checking the slaughter. At the end of
the five-year period setipulated in the
treaty the herd will probably have in
creased to over million. and moder-
ate killings thereafter will be of con-
siderable value as producer of
American revenue.
With the four nations cooperating
it is expected that the stipulations of
the treaty can be vigorously carried
out. The lawless seal hunter will be
treated as no better than a pirate and
ais punishment will be severe.

SERVING THE AFTERNOON TEA
Appurtenances May Be Costly or Sim pie, but Everything Must Be of
 the CaiHtsest Order.

When the woman who is her own maid serves afternoon tea she appre- ciates the convenience of having a cart which can be wheeled from kitch- en to living room and will hold every thing that is needed for the collation. The carts come in mahogany or fumed oak with glass top shelves and rub Der tired wheels and fin natural wood with rattan, and, considering their usefulness, none are very expensive. Lacking the cart, many housekeepers have in their living room a little oak or mahogany or willow tea table equipped with a spoon drawer, which also holds several paper napkins In- stead of keeping the service upon the table it's top is ordinarily covered with an elaborately embroidered silk en mat, which Is whisked off when the tea eqnipage Is brought In on tray of the proper size. Unless this tray is handsome affair of glass trimmed with mahogany. silver or brass, 1t should be covered with a fine linen tray cloth and be accompanied by a muffin stand of wood or of willow.

Soe Pads and Fane beaaear and Coet
BEAD TASSEL EASILY MADE
Having the Fringe and 5eads, tho Decoration Is by No Means Hard
 to Put Together.

A very simple bead tassel can be made from deep fringe or from loose beads.
 If you use loose beads you must thread forty lengths of seventy beads each, or twenty lengths of hundred and thirty beads if double end is preferred to single one. Each length Is attached to a narrow strip of satin ribbon, which is then wound round and round and stitched through to prevent the middle of the little bundle from slipping
 If the tassel Is made of fringe, cut off five inches and wrap the heading round and sew as described above. Next take piece of stiffening one inch and half long, two inches broad at one end and three-quarters of an inch at the other. Cover with silk and oversew the edges together so as to form a tube.
 Slip the satin ribbon inside the larger aperture in the tube and stitch through securely, fol the beads make the tassel very heavy. Thread about two hundred beads and wind the string round the tube to completely cover the silk, sewing at intervals. Make another string of eighty beads, double into three, and sew to the ton to form a loop.

MADE UP OF ODDS AND ENDS
Very Pretty Are the Candle Shades of Lace Designed in All Shapes
 and Coiors.

Very fetching are the new candle shades whose foundation is finely plaited fiber, and that can be had in all colors. The straight narrow Elm pire shade is the favorite, though some of the designs spread sharply at the bottom
 The decoration is varied, some have festoons of tiny ribbon flowers in soft tones. others have inserts of filmy lace combined with the flowers, and some have bands and frills of lace headed with narrow metal gimp.
 A candle shade that looks well with all color schemes is made Of crystal beads, strung into fanciful designs and finished with bead fringe The favorite is pagcda shape. another is bell shape. and some are square. These beads are usually made up over white lining, but are effective over warm yellow green or American Beauty tone.
 The girl who has odds and ends of lace can put them to no better use than to make set of four candle shades Finish the top with tiny lace gimp, which may likewise con. ceai the seam if the lace must be ! pleced.
