DAY OF WASHABLE" GLOVE
Matter of Considerable Moment to the
Woman Who Is Properly
Fastidious.

In this day of the fastidious woman,
accessories that may be made immacu-
late with small trouble and little time
are in high favor. This means, Of.
course, that gloves that are washable
have a large following, and 1t is not
surprising that they have.
From England come the soft, fine,
white doeskins. gloves Of exquisite
softness and fine texture, with the
feel of velvet and the unusual quail
fication of washing like cotton. Soap
and water does them no harm, and
they emerge from the cleansing as
fresh as new. These doeskin gloves
ton lengths, as we'll as the longer.
lengths, suitable for three-quarter and
elbow length sleeves.
Mocha gloves also come in this
washable category, but make sure that
you get the washable" kind, and ask
the clerk before the transaction is
completed. You may have these in
white or the pretty natural color.
Chamois gloves, of course, every
woman knows about, and they are al
ways more or less in fashion-rather
more this season. These too are in
white or natural if you wish. And not
only do they come in the short lengths
with one or two large pearl buttons
for fastening, and the longer lengths,
but there is also a strap wrist style
that is very comfortable and practical.

His Goose Is Cooked"

The expression, his goose is cook.
ed" appears in various forms, and
means that his cause is ruined. It
has some reference to the common
but opinion that goose" is
synonymous with fool" The idea
has crept into more than one language
and will not down" 1t is generally
understood that cooking his goose" is
a phrase which originated when the
king of Sweden, on approaching a hos
tile town, excited the contempt of the
inhabitants by the smallness of his
army. To express this they hung out
a goose for him to shoot at, whereup-
on the king set fire to the town to
cook their goose"

She Was Founded,

Violet Jennie was a little girl who
originated in a founding asylum.
A visitor who had a habit Of visit
ing took a great fancy to V. j. This
visitor had a girl of her own whose
name vas Frances, and permission
was asked for V. ]. to take tea with
Frances.
Frances was having a birthday
that day. So Violet (for short) want
ed to be very nice, but she felt that
she had an advantage over Frances,
since not every girl "a be an inmate
of a founding hospital. Violet Jen-
ME tried not to p%atronize Frances,
but she could hardly help it.
This is your birthday, isn't it?'
she said sweetly. $50 you were
born?"
Yes, Of course. Everybody is
born"
In your set, I suppose. That's what
makes it so common to be born. l
wasn't you know was founded!"-

SYSTEM DOWN TO A SCIENCE
Absent-Minded Art Show Director
Compelled to Unwind a Lot of
His Own Red Tape.

John Purroy Mitchell, the new Gus
toms collector for New York, praised
system at a dinner.
There's nothing like SYSTEM" he
said. System will accomplish the i'm
possible.
THE director Of a recent art show
was a fine chap for system. One day
he arrived at the show without his
pass, and the gateman, a stranger, held
him up.

the system exponent, but l am the
director of the show

" But l tell you I'm the director
high mucky-muck-boss.'

Yes, l know said the director i'm

director, l give you permission to let

Fancy Skirts.

When a skirt of black or other dark
1t car be rubbed with a solution of
borax and water, This solution re-
o the glaze completely and can
be applied whenever the shine returns.
Borax, of course, might, like ammonia,
have a disastrous effect on some col
ors. so it too should be tried first on
the wrong side Of the skirt.

EVER POPULAR FRENCH KNOT
Nothing More Effective In Embroidery
Work and Comparatively Eas-
lily Executed.

French knots are so easily executed
that a simple description of them is all
that will be required. They are gener-
ally used to form the center Of roses
and daisies, the stitches being made
quite close together in such case, to
create a solid center, and when EN-
ployed simply to fill up spaces in large
leaves they are usually scattered con-
siderably. The size Of the knot is reg
ulated by the space to be filled, in
dividual fancy, or the floss used. The
thread is fastened on the wrong side Of
the work with a very small knot that
is afterward cut off, as two small
stitches taken very close together
serve to secure the end of the floss.
The needle is then inserted from the
under side of the fabric and the thread
drawn through It's entire length. With
the left hand hold the fabric and the
thread at the same time, catchinf
hold of the thread about inch from
the fabric and holding it taut between
the thumb and forefinger. Hold the
needle in the right hand and slip 1t be-
meath the thread, giving 1t three or,
four twists that will throw the thread
over the needle three or four times,
but without ~loosening the hold on the
thread. Continue holding the thread
tightly and pull the needle backwards
to the point where 1t was originally
drawn through and insert it again as
close as may be to the same point,
still holding the thread firmly, and
push it through the fabric to be drawn
out on the other side. This will cause
the stitches to be held firmly on one
side and slightly loose on the other,
but the effect is very pretty. Never
allow the stitches to be loose enough
to be mussy and do not permit them to-,
be drawn back through the hole made
by the needle.

Constant Menace to Public Health.

The National Association for the
Study and Prevention of tuberculosis
estimates that there are over a million
consumptiyes in the United States, Of
whom probably at least one-third are
unable to provide for themselves the
necessary treatment at home. Most
Of these cases are a ena to the
health of their families and associates,
and should be in special hospitals. At
the present time, however, even il
every case were known, it would not
be possible to provide accommodations
for more than n in eight or ten. The
removal of these foci or infection de-
mands more and better hospital and
sa~nitarium provision.

Erocks Of Net.

Net frocks, trimmed with ratine
seem rather incongruous in combina-
ton, but the effect Is smart at the
moment. Such a frock had a tunic of
washable net, hemmed and banded
with white ratine, and the net skirt
was also hemmed and banded with
ratine. Over the tucked net blouse
vas a little coat Of the ratine, very
open at the front, to show the blouse,
aud having square coat tails at the
back. A belt of patent leather was
worn at the natural waistline, and a
black hat, airy with tulle plaitings and
buttoned oxfords of patent leather,
echoed the black Of the belt. Alto

up for a summer day cal the water.

He Meant Leonard.

Leonard w. Smith, a plumbers sup
ply dealer in Passaic, left home
Thursday evening, telling his wife he
would be delayed returning. About
one o'clock yesterday morning a man
entered the house. Mrs. Smith
thought it was her husband, but when
she got no answer to her call she left
her bed to investigate.
What are you doing here?' she de-
manded.
ooh, go to sleep-I'm Charley" was
the answer.

worth of silyerware.-New York

Misunderstood,

She was a plump widow, with two
charming daughters. She had been a
relic just a year, and was beginning
to wea her weeds lightly. All the
same, when the new curate called
upon her she sighed:
"Ah! l feel the loss Of my poor,
dear husband very much. I lever
have any appetite for anything now"
The curate was all sympathy and,
in the endeavor to cheer her by point
ing out what a comfort to her her
daughter must be, replied:
Il can quite understand that, but
you are solaced in"
"S-i-r-r!" interrupted the indignant
lady. ALLOW me to inform you that
l am not laced in at ALL"

Just Her Husband,

A woman mounted the step Of a car,
carrying an umbrella like a reversed

The conductor touched her lightly,
saying: Excuse me, madam, but you
are likely to put out the eye Of the
man behind you"
He's my husband she snapped
with the tone of full proprietorship.

Home CoIors.

A good rule to follow In furnishing
the summer home, is to use in the liv-
ing room with gray walls cretonne
showing an oyster gray, or blue and
green background. In a room with
either of these decorations the chairs
and tables, if they are of wicker,
could be stained a soft gray green.
Rooms with their exposures to the
west and south can be finished in blue
and green, those to the east and north
in yellow or pink. The walls of these
rooms may be tinted or papered with
gray.
