NEW VOGUE IN CANDLEsTlCKS
Those of Glass or Delicate Chinaware
Have Replaced the More Elaborate
Silver Ones.

The newest candlesticks are of iri.
descent glass, and their effect is
charmingly festive, though they are
not so dignified as the handsome, we'll.
cared-for silver ones of tradition.
Sometimes these glass candlesticks
have shades of deeper tinted glass
also. Dresden candlesticks that have
long been treasured for their dainty
beauty alone are also being brought
out into action by some smart hos
tesses. Now that we no longer crowd
our tables with flowers these precious
things have chance of being seen to
advantage. They are most effective
when no large tablecloth, but only
lace and linen mats are used on
beautifully polished table. White
candles, unshaded or with white or
pale pink shades. should be used with
them.
The fortunate chatelaine who. pos.
sesses Canton china is now searching
for candlesticks of the same ware
and shades painted in water color
with designs to match the china.
The prospective bride, instead of
having set after set of silver candle
sticks, will be delighted to receive
carved ivory ones instead. This hint.
of course, is only for wealthy friends,
for ivory candlesticks are not cheap.
Shades should be made for them of
thin Oriental silk.

Bunny Sandwiches.

Sandwiches attractively served are
always appetizing, and for gathering
of little folks they should be novel in
form. These are cut in the shape of
rabbits; the bread, thinly sliced, is
cut into shape by the use of card
board pattern. Half the number cut
are spread with q chocolate-and-nut
filling, and then topped with the re-
naming Dummies.
A bit of melted chocolate is then
dropped on to simulate an eye. Any
other animal shape may be used in
stead OF The bunny, and the same idea
may be applied to any odd-shaped
sandwiches that you can cut out with
a knife OF a cutter.-Harper's Bazaar.

HAVE WIDE CHOICE IN COATS
Not for Many Years Has There Been
Such Large and Excellent Variety
from Which to Select.

Certain short draped coats of sup
pie fur rounding away in the front are
launched by extremists, who are push
ing the pegtop silhouette, but they are
by no means graceful even for the
slender woman, and are not likely to
be taken seriously by the women in
this country.
Some Russian coats Of half length
or longer button up the left front,
close on the left shoulder. and have
high, close collars finished at the top
by a narrow band Of contrasting fur.
A model of this type usually is loosely
belted or girdled across the back, If
not all around, and the model, while
good-looking if well worn, is becoming
only to the exceptional woman.
Many of the new fur coats are made
without collars for greater convenience
In the wearing of separate neck furs.
Innings are often of the handsome
brocades, and in some of the most
luxurious garments these Innings are
so rich in themselves that they add
greatly to the cost of the coat.

Home HELPS.

To clean lacquered brass wash in
hot water, using soap if necessary.
Polishss should be applied to I'M
lacquered brass only.
Folded newspapers should be kept
handy in the kitchen, and these placed
under pots and kettles. II this is done
every day when the pans are taken
from the stove no grease spots will
mar the kitchen table.
Avoid open shelves in a kitchen, as
the dust soon gathers there. A wide
window shade is splendid to keep out
the dust, and far more sanitary than
a curtain.
Croquettes to be fried in deep fat
should stand for Is minutes in the
warm kitchen before being cooked.
This will help the browning process.

To Properly Apply Powder,

To produce the best effect in the
use Of powder for the face it is nee
essary to first place a foundation Of
some good cream. Apply it gently,
massaging it into the skin. rub Off
the remaining portions with a soft
linen cloth and then dust the powder
over the face and neck, taking care
that the spaces beneath the chin and
about the ears are we'll covered. Next
rub the powder well into the skin
with a soft piece of velvet until it
is evenly blended. With damp brush
remove all traces OF powder from the
brows. lashes or the edge of the
hair.

Ribbon Wreath

A lovely hair ornament for evening
is made by braiding loosely silk cord
of three different shades the neces-
sary length to crown the head, says a
writer In the Woman's Home Compan-

end of the cord. This ornament is
fastened together by hook and eve.
A pretty color scheme is to have the
cords of pink. green and gold: the

At the first menace OF war Car
Ferdinand of Bulgaria sent to Paris
on a secret mission one of the most
faithful members of his staff This
parsonage was charged. not as one
might think, with diplomatic negoti-
atoms with NJ. Poincare, nor with
our great Partisan financiers, but to
buy In one of our most important
magazine novelties, flannels for the
protection of the precious body OF his
majesty during the rigors of the cam.
paign. But events came on with such
rapidity that this commissioner was
urgently recalled and obliged to re-
gain his post before he was able to
complete his purchases. Therefore,
he left his wife at Paris, charged to
fulfill the delicate mission with which
he had been intrusted. Thanks to
the intelligent activity of this lady the
imperial package was at last sent
without delay TO Sofa. These are
French flannels and will permit the
Gar Ferdinand to meet the rigors OF
winter campaign without running
the risk of catching cold.

Most appropriate for this season OF
the year, becoming dark colors have
precedence in millinery. In the We
lours, browns and similar fabrics
which are so much used, the darker
colors are always most beautiful.
These are frequently accumulated and
relieved from too extreme somberness
by a touch of white. The hat in the
drawing has a charmingly rolled brim
of unexaggerated lines, but with the
modish extension of brim of the side.
This hat is of black velvet, with high
square crown, against which beau
tiful breast and wings of white stands
out in bold relief Two supplementary
wings increase the length of the sides.

1t can not be truthfully asserted that
the appalling list of deaths due to avi-
alton has been wholly in the interests
Of science Men who have fallen to
their death while experimenting in the
field of aviation are entitled TO all
the credit due to men who risk life
in the interests of scientific research.
But a majority of the victims have
met death while exhibiting them
selves. to the public. not as SCIENTISTS
but as showmen In response to a
morbid demand of the public for new
thrills they have taken long chances
for price, not for the Joy Of discov-
cry. Their deaths are due to the
same cause that impels death defying
feats under canvas. The general pub
lie wants TO be thrilled. Americans
deprecate the bull fight, and have put
the prize fight under the ban. But,
after all, isn't 1t just as bad to de-
mand that men shall risk death in or
der to supply the thrill, as it is to de-
mand the blood of bulls or to delight in

Complaint is made that American boys

their hats when the American flag is dis
played and the national anthem rendered.
1t seems to me that we have enough Of
such meaningless, silly display of so-called
patriotism. Unless the American boy has
a good reason to be proud of his country,
be it on account of the protection which the
government affords its citizens as to life,
property and liberty, or for other reasons,
such a display must appear senseess.

Surgery already does things that to a
past age would have seemed miracles, but
there is ground for believing that still
greater triumphs in that line are to come.
The young French surgean, Carel, has
shown the possibilities of replacing lost
portions of the human frame through his
experiments on dumb animals, and some
startling results have been attained.
If these things are demonstrated in the
case of brutes it is logical to assert they can
be done with the human subject.
