POPULARITY
OF EMBROlDERIES

EMBROIDERIES for early spring VIII
l. be more popular than ever. The
tendency to a return to trimmed skirts
in all fabrics. and especially to foot
trimmings and three-tier effects. is one
reason for this popularity. In these
days OF panel effects, band trimmings.
fichu and surplice outlines and gal
looms, bands and insertions of various
widths are absolute essentials In the
making of gowns Widths Of embroid-
cries range from one inch TO eighteen
inches, but the four to nine inch widths
are those most used by designers OF
gowns
Colbert embroidery bands and all
overs are expected to reach a great
vogue. 1t is Of the cut-work order, re-
macross lace, and also giving an effect
similar to that of real Venise lace. 1t
will be much used for lapels or revers
on coats as well as for hat trimming
or gown garniture.
All-over embroideries have been very
popular for several seasons. but new
uses for them have been evolved from
fashions in garments made of other
fabrics AS the season advances little
coates, overblouses, Jackets bOleros.
and EtOns will be created, to be worn
over simple muslin gowns. thus max
ing them dressy at a moments notice.
There will be a larger use than ever

While white is considered likely to
take the lead. colored effects will also
be used. A good deal Of embroidery

RENEWING USEFULNESS
OF THE CARPET

MANY good carpet becomes shabby
AVA and worn looking without being ac-
tually old. The figures lose their bright
ness. and the grain is rough and un-
kempt looking. Here is simple process
by which the carpet or rug will once
more look presentable and as good as
new:
Cut an ounce of yellow soap into small
squares. and with them make a lather
with a pint of clear boiling water. Add
to this lather a quart of hot water to
which has been added an ounce Of borax
Place the mixture on the stove and bring
the entire preparation to a boil Re-
move II, set II to cool, and when quite
cold add one ounce each Of alcohol ana
ammonia and naif an ounce OF siycerin.
Wipe over only a small portion of the
carpet at a time and ruD vigorously with
Clean flannel dipped in.o the mixture
until, nnany. all the spots are removed
and the color revived. The result will be
surprising. for the change and improve
ment are remarkable.
Another good method is to shave half
a pound Oh soap and boil 1t in a quart
of water until dissolved, then add a
gallon of hot water and one ounce of
salts of tartar. Mix thoroughly. Use
stiff brush and scrub the carpet with
the mixture. which should lather free
ly and clean the carpet without max
ing 1t very damp. AS you clean a
breadth wipe 1T hard with a cloth
wrung out of cold water. If there is
much green in the carpet put a cup of
vinegar in the cold water. This guam
tity will clean a large carpet, and the
process is approved by those OF long
experience.
housekeeper who has tried the fol-
lowing method says this fluid Is a sue
cess for cleaning a carpet: Put one
cake Of white soap, two tablespoons
each OF ammonia, borax and sal soda
into q saucepan. Boil 1t until 1t is dis
solved, then add soft water enough to
make three gallons and let it come to
q boil. and then set aside to cool.
When cold apply to the carpet with a
stiff brush, rinse the carpet with a
cloth wet in cold water and wrung
out partially dry.
Before washing rugs lay them out
straight and brush with a stiff, dry
scrubbing brush. You will be surprised
at the amount of dirt to come out in
this way, which is much better than
shaking or beating them.

filled with violets decorating the center
OF the table. Small latticed SILVER bas-
kets. also intended for 'violets or other
small blossoms, make dainty place IA
vors and sweet peas may be used instead
of violets If the color scheme Is pink.
Instead of using these pretty baskets
for flowers they may be lined with paraf-
fin paper and filled with almonds or

served in them, the basket making its
appearance on plate covered. with

when released from a combining hat
brim.
Feathers are formed into every con-
ceivable shape from pert little cock
AIDES to enormous butterflies, which
seem ready to soar away from the hat
crown. The newest arrangement is a
bowknot of ostrich, and one of these
naments was noted yesterday in 3th
avenue ml-liners window. Hundreds
of the delicate. uncurled ostrich plumes
were gathered together. as one might
gather a handful of worsted ends. and
tied i'm q great, loose knot and ostrich
ends tumbling in all directions over the

model was displayed beside frock of

There is pretty fad just now for
snow white footwear when ones head
gear is white. and frequently dark tai
lored street suits arc accompanied by
white hats or dark hats bearing the con-
spicuous white Francois | feather and
white boots to match.
White, however. will be reserved for
morning and informal wear this summer:

Tafeta Winter Suits.

Tor little afternoon affairs the tai.
feta suit Is popular. It's newest
phase Is with dainty fur collar and
cuffs preferably white. The taffeta
suit easily slips under q long fur coat
for street or automobile wear. and Is
ready for any affairs where q street
look is wanted. A very pretty taffeta
visiting costume for young girl was
seen a few days ago 20 be worn at
tea time or when helping her hostess
receive on her day at home.
1t was made OF thin gray ana pale
blue shot taffeta. and the hem OF the
fourreau was finished with three little
puffings with fussy heading. The
gathered bodice showed a guimpe Of
drawn spotted net. and the Marie An
toinette fichu was of blue mousseline
de sole with a frili edged with valen-
ciennes lace around it. There was A
folded taffeta corselet with rounded
ends falling at the side. and finished
with little puffings. There were blue
kid shoes with wide laces to go with
1t. and steel gray silk stockings. This
costume showed the trend of fashion
in the use of taffeta. the coming of the
trimmed skirt and the Quaker like
folded or fichu bodice. all desirable
styles from more than one point of
view.

room-which was until an hour far past
his usual early hour of retiring. 1t tran
spired afterward that more than one pro-
posal found its way into the little post
mans bag that evening and two happy
engagements were the result of that par
ticular Valentine dance.
Valentine cotillon favors should have
romantic rather than intrinsic worth, and
the more sentimental they are the better.
Hearts in every form are most appro-
pirate and pink satin hearts used as COW
ers for penwipers will make attractive
favors for one figure; or the men may
have penwipers, leaves of flannel. max
ing needle cases of the hearts for the
maids. The chain of hearts may be used
for SNAPSHOT photographs, a photograph
being pasted upon each of the cardboard
hearts.
The girl who believes in charms must
not omit the bay leaf rite on St. Valen-
tines eve. In olden days each unmar-
ried maid went out and plucked with
her own hands four bay leaves and
pinned one leaf to each corner of her pill
low, three corners being named for GER
tain SWANS of her acquaintance, the
fourth being called the unknown.
Whichever she dreamed of during the
night was certain, so the tradition ran,
to be her husband before the close of
the year-and If she was unfortunate
enough to dream of nobody at all, spin
sterhood was to be her fate.

LATE WINTER HATS
TRIMMED WITH FLOWERS

FLOWERS of gold, silver and SHIN
/ mering metallic cloths are great
favorites at present. The small, dainty
types, such as rosebuds, jessamines,
cyclamen and marguerites, are given
the preference over the larger flowers.
Sprays, wreaths and festoons are dis
played on hats of velvet, silk, felt and
even fur They consist Of hundreds of
tiny flowers, all in different delicate
tones. and have foliage made either of
the same silk or brocade as the flowers
or of metallic cloth or heavy gold or
silver tulle.
The so-called old-fashioned flowers
used on bonnets are in brilliant tints.
They are almost all made of velvet and
very heavy satin, In roses the tightly
closed cup-shaped variety is shown
preference. When heavy materials are
employed in the making Of these flowers,
they are usually yelled with a thin layer
of chiffon tulle or gold net; thus more
graceful effects are achieved.
Flowers of felt, heavy broadcloth, COR
duroy and wool velvet vie with those
made of worsted and chenille. While
those made of piece goods are mostly in
solid colors, the colOring OF the ones
made of worsted and chenille show the
very gayest of tints
Roses and pansies, made of Irish
crochet and macrame lace, decorate some
of the choicest hats. They are. as rule.
set off by particularly handsome ostrich
feathers, paradise aigrettes or rich fur,
all of which afford a splendid background
for the many intricate stitches of which
the pattern Of the lace Is formed. The all
white flower with white foliage Is still
well liked. but Is often singed delicate
pink or green in the center, or else nm
ished with natural stamina. which eff
fectively breaks the monotony. Fashion
favors wreaths of small or large roses or
other flowers made of soft satin ribbon
wDh petals of velvet or metallic tissues.

little things which would demand too much
Of the expensive oiled silk, and the wa

oilcloth, which one would probably pur-

hair will protect from water when win
dows are being cleaned. Strips Of an old
silk raincoat can be worked into bags
to carry next years bathing suit. and the
pieces may be easily made over into
