Cleaning Embroideries.

1t would cost a small fortune to send
all our e~mbroideries to a professional
cleaner these days. when they are
many, for clothing and household
things are plentifully adorned with
them.
If the embroidery is done with colors
add salt to the rinsing water, which
should be clean and moderately hot.
This will set the colors Of silks or cot
tons so they will not run. 1t is a wise
p%recaution to immerse colored en-
broideries in salt water before washing
in the bran water.
To clean them at home most success
fully place q half pint Of bran in a pan
and add the same amount Of cold wa
ter. Allow = to boil slowly for twenty
minutes and then strain through a fine
cloth. Add a pint of boiling water and
use this mixture to wash fine en-
hroideries and laces for the first time.
Squeeze them gently with the hands.
and If they are much soiled soap jelly
can be added to the mixture. This Is
made by dissolving pure soap in boil
ing water.

PLAN ING SPRING SUITS.
The Dsmita;Iored Models Favored by
Fashion Experts,

In discussing advance models Of suits
for spring the Dry Goods Economist
says demitailored styles lead in favor.
1t adds:
The short suit jacket. reaching just
IT, the waist line, is much in evidence.
but many are made somewhat longer
in the back and give the bolero effect
In front.
Sleeves are frequently Of the modi-
fed kimono type or set on at the long
shoulder line. The new raglan sleeve
H. also coming rapidly to the front.
Collars are Of various types. the most
extreme standing slightly away from
the neck, while the more staple styles
show the rundown square, pointed or
round collar.
Yokes are becoming a feature Of
many Of the garments. Many Of these
yckes are very small, and frequently
they appear only in the front or in the
back.
Belts will again be used to a consid-
cradle extent. Many Of these are
placed slightly below the waist line.
Often they are of the same material as
the suit Or. again, Of the trimming
used on the collars and cuffs.

BLUE is ECONOMICAL.
At the Present Time II Is Also Very
Modish.

Navy blue retains it's hold for both
outdoor and indoor wear, and this in
spite Of the vogue for brilliant colors
this season. When one has but Il mod
crate sum to spend on dress. however,
and one costume has to do duty for
many occasions it is just as well to
avoid bright colors.
Besides. If you wish to conform to
fashions latest within and have some
brilliant touch of color about YOU. does
navy always lend itself we'll to all
sorts of cOlored trimming schemes?
OF course there is a great deal Of diff
ference between the coat and skirt cos
tune intended for town and that in
tended for country wenr The latter
should be as plain and ~serviceable as
possible; the former requires to be
much more chic.

IMMIE MARTINDALE'S father

IN NILE LIE > 1aCDer
went out to the wild west to
become a ranchman when jim
mic was six years old, and
the consequence was that Jimmie grew
up with all the freedom Of a 10Y
puncher. That doesn't mean that he
was coarse, but that he was uncon-
ventional. His father and mother be-
ing refined he was himself refined, but
he naturally partook of the spirit Of
the people among whom he lived.
When Jimmie was twenty-five he
had lost father and mother and was
in possession of one of the most ex-
tensive and best stocked ranches in
New Mexico. Having never G G any
thing Of the world, he concluded to
make a trip to Europe. He liked Paris
pretty we'll and. having a mind to So
journ there awhile, joined a club and
got himself introduced into society.
At a function given at the American
embassy Jimmie met Clochette Desaix
and fell desperately in love with her.
The young lady seemed we'll pleased
with him, and Jimmie was ready for
a proposal. But he had by this time
learned that marriages in Europe are
not made as they are in America and
certainly not as they were made
among ranch people. Mile. Desaix be-
longed to a very old family, and her
father was a stickler for etiquette.
Jimmie knew this and, feeling his
want Of ability to tackle the problem
of a proposal without being coached,
impaired his desires to NJ. Coushoix,
a member Of his club who was con-
sidered we'll up in such matters, and
asked for advice.
He was told that on no account must
he speak to the object Of his desires
until the matter had been settled with
her father. NJ. Desaix should be ap-
preached with great ceremony, and
Jimmie must give him to understand
that he would consider it a great honor
to be permitted to ally himself with
so ancient and honorable a family.
There was no necessity for him to
dwell on his love for the young lady,
for love would, according to French
customs. have nothing to do with the
matter. If he received encouragement
from NJ. Desaix it would then be in
order for him to enter upon an expo
sition Of his affairs. mentioning the
amount he proposed to settle on his
wife just previous to the marriage.
He would have a right to know what
dowry the bride would receive from
her father. but delicacy would suggest
that he wait for NJ. Desaix to speak
Of that.
Jimmie thought he understood how
the racket was worked.' as he ex-
pressed 1t. and started off to find M.
Desaix. The latter had just finished
dinner, and a nan after dinner is
usually approachable. Jimmie was in
vited into a smoking room. and his
host. who had noticed his attentions
at functions to his daughter and sus-

A Space For Our Little Friends
HOW ANIMALS SPEND WINTER.
Some Stop Eating Altogether. While
Others Sleep Through Cold Months.


Others Sleep Through Cold Months.
During the autumn all kinds of bears
become very fat in consequence OF the
ample feasts they make in preparation
for passing the cold and inhospitable
months of winter. When they have
prepared their winter quarters they
cease feeding and remain through the
winter in a dull, lethargic state. Some
kinds Of animals that hide away in
winter are not sound asleep all of the
time. The blood moves a little, and
when it is mild they wake up enough
to eat. The curious thing is that they
know this beforehand and lay some
thing to eat close by them when they
go into winter quarters. But those
that do not wake up do not lay up
food. The little field mouse stores up
nuts and grain and eats them when he
is partly awake on a warm day. The
bat does not need to do this, for the
warmth that awakens him brings out
the insects on which he feeds. When
he is going to sleep again he hangs
himself up by his hind claws. The
w%oodchuck lays up dried grasses be-
side him so that they may be ready
the first thing when he awakens in the
spring. that he may eat and be strong
before he comes out of his hole.

Fashion Ideas and Household Hints
HELPFUL FASHION NOTES.
What Is Worn by tho Up to Date Wo-
man Who Dresses WE'LL.

Suits may be elaborate or severe as
fancy or requirement dictates. The
elaborate ones are often Of a common
place material. but of complex lines,
whereas the simplest ones are depend
nj on the richness Of the fabric. Such
a range of material as one has to Sc
lect from!
All seem to ha, a touch of fur. \
lack Of collars is another note, the fur
band passing around the collarless
coat. Many coats button up to the fur
neckband.
suits show little or no fullness at the
armhole. The kimono sleeve is still in
vogue. also the dropped shoulder effect.
Another fact to be noted is the elimi-
nation Of reverS on the coat. This to
IN extent simpiifies the coat, but just
here is where the waistcoat appears.
And Of all the elaborate accessories
this is one Of the most important. OF
many materials, colors and shapes,
decorated or plain, it is a garment in
itself or only Il sham.
Skirts are worn shorter in Paris than
in America. They are developed in all
materials. Many strictly tailored skirts
are cut in II piece, the seam being
either in the back or front and fitted
with a long dart over each hip. Plaid
skirts are made on the bias with the
seam in the back. Some show tunics
of the predominant color.
