Just as Mrs. Whatever was begin
ming to get rested Watchers sister
and her family dropped off the train
to visit the dear relatives and Incl
dentally to shop. AS Whatever and his
sister always got along together just
as beautifully as do gunpowder and
blazing matches, the visit reduced the
Watchers to still deeper misery.
Then the people next door got

the street took to playing the cornet,
In the midst of these Affections two
more cousins from Iowa came, be-
cause, as they said, the other Iowa
cousins had had such perfectly grand
time that they didn't want to miss
the chance, since the Watchers were
in town for the summer They said
they thought the Watchers were very
wise not to attempt to go away, since
Mrs. Watcher looked so sickly. The
place for her, they said, was at home,
where she could have absolute quiet
and rest and do exactly as she
pleased.
The cook left in the middle of this
visit and the second girl gave notice.
SO Mrs. Watcher celebrated the do
parture of the cousins by going to q
sanitarium for month.

ABOUT CURTAINS

Those who dwell In large towns and
cities find it necessary to constantly
hang clean curtains at the windows.
The house then appears fresh and
bright within and from without. If
curtains are SEN to the laundry they
are a heavy drain on the h~ousekeep-
ing When made of mad
ras, swiss, muslin or dimity, they can
easily be %laundered at home.
Begin by shaking them we'll out of
doors. In this name all the super
fuous dust a be removed.
Prepare a tubful of warm water in
which a half Jake Of white soap has
and down in this, and when the water
becomes black change to a second
tub of suds. If the curtains are very
much soiled they will require a third
tub of suds. Allow them to remain
In this for an hour.
Rinse in two tubfuls of clear water,
the last Of which should have a small
amount of cooked starch and a few
drops of bluing added.
Hang in the sun to bleach and dry
thoroughly before removing them
from the line.
Sprinkle we'll and fold, that the
dampness may be evenly absorbed.
To successfully iron long curtains
place a blanket over the kitchen table
and fasten a clean sheet over
this. Pull each curtain into shape
before ironing. Nothing looks worse
than curtains which do not hang
evenly.
Use hot irons and rub them over
paraffin wax to prevent the starch
from sticking.
First iron the plain portion of the
curtain and then the frills.
If the curtains are plain, iron the
deep hem first, so that it will hang
straight.

Concerning MADAME X'

OCiA MISS DOOA.
Allow me to use your valuable col
m to Express my opinion in regard
to Madame X" I would like to say
that l hin it is perfectly outrageous
of the manager of the Orpheum to ex-
pect his leading lady, Miss Mabel
Brownell, to play that strenuous role
in Madame X" for two weeks, after
having played 1t at the beginning of
the season. She certainly played it
then to the best of her ability, and 1
think that it Is very nerve-racking
for her to have to play it for two con-
secutive weeks. Please publish this,
as ] am a constant reader of both the
Morning and EGyUeIniin n s. Star; rnox
j. S.-Pleasc publish your opinion
as to this matter.
The role of Madame X is indeed a
difficult one, and in the hands of this
capable actress is artistic in every
respect. In your anxiety that Miss
BrownelPs strength should not be
overtaxed o have overlooked one
big item, namely, that by playing the
same role two weeks the necessity of
learning a new part, of rehearsing it
and attending to the numerous little
details OF gowns, hats, etc., is OBJ
waited for a week, to say nothing Of
the tightening of the work for the
first week of the reproduction.
OF course, actresses have played
that role for a season, but then none
of us would want Miss Brownell to
do that, as an emotional strain of
that sort cannot help ~lessening
strength and nerve control. How
ever, the management has decided
not to repeat the play next week, so
we need not worry.
L am sure you view the contempla-
ton to do so in a different light, now.
don't you? I know the management
values Miss Brownell's services too
highly to stage any production that
would be detrimental t. her health.

BY MAY MANTON
A PRETTY FROCK FOR THE
CHRISTMAS PARTY

The holidays mean parties for the
young people and parties mean new
frocks. Here is q charming little
model. The making is cry simple,
but the effect is exceedingly attract
i've. The blouse consists Of front and
back portions that are Tapped upon
yoke portions that extend from the
neck edge TO the lower edges of the
elbow sleeves. This gives the pretty
dropping line of the kimono slebve
which is so generally becoming and
which retains all of its smartness.
The skirt is a simple straight one,
gathered at the upper edge. Blouse
and skirt are Joined by means Of a
belt. On the figure the dress is made
Of albatross and trimmed with satin.
The upper edges OF the blouse and
the lower edge Of the skirt are fin
ished with a design outlined with
braid. which matches the trimming
material in color. The model is es-
pecially well adapted to bordered
materials and founcing. Embroid-
cred founcing, with the shoulder or
yoke portions made of plain ma
terial tucked, would be very pretty.
For the 10-year size the dress will
require 3a yards of material q, "a
yards SO or 2s yards A inches wide,
with g yard Fl inches wide for the
yoke.
The May Manton pattern of the
dress, 7O2S, is cut in sizes for girls
from S to 70 years of age. 1t will be
mailed to any address by the fashion
department of this paper on receipt
Of ten cents.
