remnant of silk. The edge is orna-
mented with a silk cord of a fancy
pattern, chosen in some contrasting
shade of color and carried into the
three little loops on either side and
again at the top and base. A long
loop Of cord is attached to the
upper part and serves to suspend it
from a nail in the wall or the post of
the glass.
The papers are held in their places
by broad band of elastic which is
run through two Sits cut on either
side and the ends securely sewn
together at the back. The position Of
these two Sits Is clearly indicated in
the diagram on the right.
The little article would also be very
useful for hanging upon the wall by
the side Of the writing table, and un-
der those circumstances it would be
handy for holding unused halfsheets
of note paper, and they could easily be
withdrawn, like the shaving papers,
one by one, as they may be required.

PASSION FOR I THE "PARL OR"
Medical Officer Finds Fault With Gus
tom of Using Poorest Rooms
for Sleep.

In the course of lectures on per.
institute, Prof. H. r. Kenwood, medi.
cal officer of health for Bedfordshire,
dealt with ''The Home" Much might
be done for the prevention of tuber-
culosis by the improvement of the
home, he said, according to the London
Daily Telegraph. Wherever there was
dirt there was also degradation. But
it was the really invisible dirt In the
form of germs in the atmosphere OF
ground that was the most harmful. 1t
was essential in dealing with these to
make the acts of cleansing as simple
as possible, and there should be nc
heavy pieces Of furniture to move;
no nailed-down carpets, but movable
strips and squares and light washable
curtains. 1t should be remembered
that there is no such thing as dry
cleaning. busting was a mere dis
turbance Of particles unless damp
cloth, tea leaves or wet sand were
employed.
Was there, he asked, anything more
absurd than to find little house in a
shabby genteel street with it's bed
room accommodation overtaxed and
the best apartment used as the par.
lor-that holy of holes, with it's odor
that might be called sanctimonious,
and occupying cubic space that could
be far better used? This passion for
the parlor was almost like the fetish
Of the unciv1liZed.

tive power, and germicide effects.
should not be reduced by heavy cur
tains. 1t was the soundest of invest
ments to make the home as healthy
and attractive as possible The cuckoo
type Of parent, depositing it's children
at school and expecting them to learn
everything there, should realize that
the true influences in youth are those
of the home itself.

Obliterating Field Of Waterloo.

While Americans are observing the
semi-centennial of Gettysburg, and
thousands study the battle by the aid
of the monuments and markers on the
battlefield, complaint comes to Eng
land that the Waterloo terrain is in
danger. While La Hale Sainte and
Hougomont still bear the marks OF
cannon shot, both are in danger Of
being rebuilt, and part of the Hougo-
mont wall against which the wave OF
French courage dashed in vain has
already been pulled down. That is not
the worst of the situation, according
to a British officer who recently visit
ed the field. "Tramcars" and cheap
fares have been followed by "tawdry
cafes located on the very spot
whence the Imperial Guard recoiled.
What is to be done? The suggestion
is that cooperation of Belgians and
EngIishmen who would preserve the
topography of Waterloo many be effec-
tive in doing for that famous field
what has been done for Gettysburg, but
the first step, it is admitted, will be
very expensive. If preservation is not
organized there is danger that the
strategic points will be obliterated by
garden and farm field.-Boston Tran

Cleaning Curtains.

Many housewives own curtains OF
Arabian lace. They realize that a
great amount of their beauty is lost
after washing. The lovely ecru tint
has disappeared, and to recolor them
is not always satisfactory.
These curtains can be dry cleaned
in the following manner:
Spread sheet or two upon the floor
and lay the curtains carefully on them
Mix two parts of boiled cornmeal
with one of salt.
With clean brush rub this mix
ture thoroughly through the curtains
Hang out Of doors for couple
hours and the curtains viii be swee,
and clean.
In this simple way they may be fire.
quently cleaned. If the dust is not al
lowed to settle in them for any length
of time, they will wear much longer.

LETTERING FOR THE LINEN
Many Old Designs and Shapes to 30
Found by Deiving in the
Public Library.

used to spend many pennies having
monograms and initials stamped for
embroidery. whites contributor to
Good Housekeeping. Now, when 1 wish
to mark linen, go to the public library
and get book on lettering. There
are many old letters and unusual
shapes that the embroidery stampers
do not have to be found In these books.
I traced them from the book on tissue
paper, and at home marked through
carbon paper on to the linen. There
is a long, very thin letter that is es-
pecially pretty embroidered, and by
overlapping the letters a little, and
adding few extra lines to join them
together, have made some fine mono
grams.

Practical Violet Holder.

An extremely simple and practical
rubber novelty comes in the shape OF
a bunch of violets and is designed for
the protection of a gown when the
natural flowers are worn.
1t is made of green rubberized silk,
the shade Of the violet leaves and is
outlined with a green wire. When
worn it effectually prevents the pene-
tration of any moisture to the gown.
The wire edge permits Of shaping the
holder to the bouquet proper and the
latter is then attached to the corsage
,r wherever else desired.

Confederate Flags Can't Be Returned.

Confederate Flags Can't Be Returned.
There are several reasons why the
captured Confederate battle flags that
have been preserved as trophies In
the state house since the war will not
be returned at the Gettysburg reunion
week after next, to the survivors of
the regiments from which they were
captured, as Past State Commander
George w. Stone says would be q
handsome thing to do.
One Of the reasons alone is sufi-
cient why they should not be returned.
This is that the flags are the property
of the state, and they cannot be trans
ferred to others without authority of
the legislature. True, Governor Ferris
has the authority to convene the leg
islature in special session next
week to direct the return of the flags,
but the odds are one to ten billion
that the governor won't do it.
In 1871 Charles Sumner OF Massa,
chusetts, then distinguished United
States senator, offered a-resolution
TN the senate to return all the flags
captured during the entire Civil war
He argued that such an act would
do much to restore an era of good
feeling between the north and south
but his resolution was rejected by a
decisive vote. During the AZ years
that have interviewed since Senator
Sumner introduced his resolution few
subjects have been discussed in Grand
Army circles quite SO much as the
return of the captured flags.
