Willow Plumes and Old Maids

Dear Miss Doom
Kindly publish a way to dry clean
q willow plume. What is the age of
an old maid? Thanking you in adj
vance, e. X.
Put the plume in box containing
a quantity of corn meal or -four.
Shake thoroughly. Then add fresh
meal and let feather remain in the
box for several days. Then shake
thoroughly and the soil will come out
with the meal.
Concerning your old maid question,
I can but recall the words of the
countryman who gazed upon a giraffe
for the first time: There amt no
such animal
A girl used to become an old maid
just as soon as her twenty-fifth birth
day doomed in sight Today she often
reaches 80 before marriage is even
considered. Many modern maidens
prefer single blessedness to marital
responsibilities. They are the bright
Interested creatures we know as
bachelor girls.
Anyone, man or woman, may be
called an "old maid" if he or she has
the characteristics that make the APP
pellation-as it is generally under
stood-ft.

WASHINGTON. Feb. THE next
time you are told that the Smart"
society of the national capital would
starve to death If called upon to earn
its own living just tell your informer
thai he is mistaken.
Admit that many of the maids and
matrons of the capital who move in
exclusive circles would be hard put
their incomes be suddenly swept away
from them; but do not concede that
in the event of such dire catas-
trophe all would be compelled to wend
their way to the bread line. Some
would be able to get along swim
mingly with the income which they
would be able to honestly earn.
For instance, might be mentioned
Miss Mary Macon. daughter of the
retiring representative from Arkan-
sas and great granddaughter of the
man for whom Macon, Ga. was
named. She has a fine voice and con-
siderable skill in using 1t. She could
capitalize it if necessary.
Another musician of attainment is
Nine. Jonkheer J. I4oudon, wife of
the minister from the Netherlands.
Nine Loudon, who was Miss Eustis.
of New Orleans, studied abroad. and
has won plaudits at more than one
European capital
Mrs. Lawrence Townsend, wife of
the former American minister to Bel
GUM, has unusual skill. So also has
her daughter, Yyonne Townsend,

THE FASHIONABLE NORFOLK
COAT
BY MAY WANTON

Norfolk styles are equally fashion
able for young folk and for their ell
ders. The coat illustrated is both
smart and serviceable and the max
ing is very simple. There is yoke
in both front and back and the lower
portions of the coat are made with
wide box plaits laid in and are joined
to the yoke. The big patch pockets
with the buttoned-over flaps, are very
smart, too. This coat is made or one
of the novelty materials of the winter,
in which tan is the predominating
color. and 1t is trimmed with brown
velvet. Cheviot, serge, whipcord ana
all similar materials would be excel
lent for the school coat. Broadcloth
or corduroy would be pretty for the
more dressy one. For the cold wealth
err the coat can be fastened up closely
about the throat in place of being
rolled open, as in this case, and, II
liked. a patent leather belt can be
substituted for the one of material.
For the 12-year size, the coat will
require 90 yards of material q, S&
yards So, S1s yards A or 21s yards %
inches wide, with * yard q inches
wide for the collar, cuffs and belt.
The May Manton pattern or the
coat 1900 is cut in sizes for girls from
to IA years of age. 1t will be mailed
to any address by the fashion depart
ment of this paper. on receipt of ten

MORALS OF $40 HAT

According 10 Professor Patton. of
the University of Pennsylvania,
girl who spends $40 on hat al
though she earns but s. week. is
more respected than a girl who wears
a dowdy hat and saves her money
fer her old age. The girl who wears
the SO hat will receive more atten-
ton than she of the dowdy hat, will
make more impression on the oppo-
site sex and run a better chance of
securing a life partner who will be
able to supply her with numerous
SO hats. The question of morality
does not figure in the controversy
between the professor and the women
readers Of the newspapers. From the
millinery viewpoint she of the SO
hat is respected because she desires
10 wear good clothes and good MILL
merry, and should be encouraged to
save as much as she can out Of her
IS per in order 10 secure them. She
of the dowdy hat viii grow stingy
as she grows older and the rainy
days toward which she is saving
will find her a lone occupant of a
hall bedroom without those associa-
tions that make girls life worth
the living. Spend less money on matt
nees. theatres. CONNECTIONS and lonick-
hacks and more on millinery and the
invitations to theatres. confectionery
and parties will come freely from the
opposite sex.-The Millinery Trade

SMALL HATS FOR SPRING

In spring shapes the small hat is

Dry Goods Economist. OF course,
some attention viii be paid to the
medium and larger shapes. but the
high note will be struck in the ex-
tremely small models. A noteworthy
Characteristic of the advance i'm
ported models now being shown is the
very narrow upturned brim, which is
often bent into one, two, three or
four points. The crowns for the
most part are rather high and many
of them are arranged so as to sug-
gest the soft, draped or Tam ideas so
prominent during the present season.
This soft crown idea is at its best
when it is developed in velvet. satin
or crepe de chine. Many jaunty roll
ing brim sailors are shown with a
low. soft bowl crown.

gray hair disappears; after another
application or two it is restored to
its natural color.

Baking Potatoes.
Choose smooth potatoes of medium
size. If old, cut a slice from each
end, to allow moisture to escape. Put
into moderate oven to heat through
gradually, and let the heat increase
until done, about thirty -five TO
forty-five minutes. Crack the skin

surplus moisture to escape, or cut in
halves, scoop out the potato, season

less than a quarter of an inch thick;

butter for every four medium-sized
potatoes in a saucepan with a little
chopped parsley, onion. salt and pep

potatoes many varieties may be
made, such as potato roses, potato
cakes, potato crust for meat pies

pastry bag and rose tube, which
may be purchased at any housefur-
