FOOD ostrich feathers require the
" investment OF more money than
almost any other millinery trimming,
but they last much longer. They are
always in fashion and they stand
cleaning and dyeing so that the life
Of a good feather extends over several
years. A handsome pair of plumes is
shown here. They are the only trim
ming required on shape, and Ii Is a
mistake to use any other with them,
unless it is little band and bow of
ribbon about the crown. This will
serve to conceal the mounting of the
feathers.
AS will be seen in the picture, the
plumes are mounted at the back of the
hat, with one falling toward the front
and the other standing almost upright
They are placed back to back.

shape the owner OF plume, or of two
or three, may mount them herself by
going about 1t In the right way. II is
usual to first sew the wire stem of
each plume to little square or disk
OF buckram. This should be about the
size OF a half dollar. The stems must
be sewed securely to the buckram
with strong linen thread. When the
needle is thrust through the buckram
first, leave several inches OF the
thread free. After many stitches are
made (holding the plume securely to
the buckram). this free end is used to
tie with the remainder of the thread.
The piece OF buckram fastened In
this way to the stems Of the plumes
make 1t possible to mount them grace
fully. When sewing the buckram to
the shape an end OF thread is left free

for tying. This Is necessary be-
cause plumes sway in the wind and
will pull stitches that are not tied,
loose, and one is liable to lose a
plume. Whenever plume is fastened
to the hat 1t should be tied rather
than sewed, but several stitches are
needed as we'll as the tied thread, to
hold the plume securely.
DO not make the mistake OF drawing
the plume tightly against the hat. Let
it fall naturally. Then, to keep it in
position, tie the thread about the rib
and then attach it (the thread), to the
hat, leaving the thread suffi ciently
long to give the plume a little play.
The whole object is to fasten the
plume in place, but in such way as
to make the fastening unnoticeable.
1t Is a feature of this reasons mil
linery that a pair of plumes back to
back, or one curling within the other,
is mounted at the same point on the
hat.
often than a great number. For the
season demands that the lines of
shape must be preserved, not lost, by
too abundant trimming.
White plumes clean and dye salts
factorily. In buying black plumes, a
good quality may be depended on for
many seasons wear. But one must
select glossy and deep black ones, for
the color Of these will not grow less
rich with wear. Very good plumes are
not much affected by moisture. II
they become damp hold them over the
stove or a radiator, and shake them
until thoroughly dry.

F0R IMPROVEMENT IN BABIES

Views.

The Grange as the exponent OF bet

and apparently there is no reason why
this distinctly home organization"
should not exert its energies Ia this
direction. What Grange purposes to
do about it, at least in Michigan. is
indicated by the following letter Just
Issued by Miss Jennie Buell.. lecturer

says:

says. for the help OF lecturers In using
this topic:

have studied all kinds of bacteria.
How many fathers and mothers have
made any study OF the scientific facts
concerning the growing of babies?

Her chain purse was empty now,
her exhilarating occupation gone, and
she stood, forlorn little figure in her

She had remained thus for some lit

behind her and she was quickly grasp

swung on to the steps.

laughed outright at the thought.
