The place has been known for many
years as the Captain Lyon house and It
was built in the i0s. The architecture
is OF rather peculiar type and the Suild-

a brick structure but the brick has been
veneered with wood. The house is one

HIGH GIRDLE EASY TO MAKE
the Proper Way in Which 1t
Should Be Worn.

One of the very new high girdles is
the Philadelphia North American. The
girdle can be in two colors, as those
ultra-smart ones are, or Of one color
only, if you would be more conserva-
tive. The width of the girdle, too,
depends upon your own taste. 1t is
to be crushed girdle, and we will
presume that it is to be made of a
dull silk, messalines and such shiny
surfaces being rather back numbers"
just at present Cut two bias strips
of silk, each sufficiently long to go
entirely about the waist, both of one
color, or each contrasting color to
the other. Seam the two pieces of silk
together, making one long strip, and
hem down the raw edges. If wide rib
bon is used, there will, of course, be
no necessity for turning in the selv-
age edges. Then gather in each mar
row end with drawing thread, and
join these ends to braid frogs to which
are attached loops. Then put two
large buttons, braided or silk-covered,
in the exact center of the girdle, one
under the other, about two inches
apart. The girdle is now ready to
wear. Place the center of the girdle
at the center front of the waist, wrap
both ends about the waist, crossing
them in the back, and bring the ends
to the front, there to fasten the loops
to the two buttons A more graceful
kind of girdle you wouldn't want. The
girdle may also be made in velvet and
fancy or velvet-covered buttons used
Either braid or frogs and loops made
from the velvet may be used.

Baths for Health and Beauty.

A course of electric baths is a most
admirable tonic to the whole system,
but where this is impossible, on the
score of expense, have warm bath
every night. A little liquid ammonia
may be added to it; brisk bath-for
long soak In hot water does far
more harm than good-followed by a
sponge-of with equal quantities of
toilet vinegar or eau de cologne and
water, and brisk toweling till the
whole body is aglow Then get into
bed at once. In the morning have a
'loofah" massage, rubbing the whole
body well with dry loofah till you
tingle from head to foot, followed by
several minutes deep breathing and
simple Swedish exercises.

CHANGE IN SHOULDER LINE
Departure From Styles of
Previous Seasons.

Once on a time a gown whose Shout
der seam extended beyond the actual
line of the shoulder would have been
returned to the dressmaker as a care
less fit. At present, however, the
shoulder line that is one-half or three
quarters way down to the elbow Is
the only fashionable kind. This gives
a narrowed appearance to the top Of
the waist, which is so much sought
after just now
The whole silhouette is straight and
narrow. The lines which the cor
setieres aim for are straight and un-
broken from shoulder line to hip, end
ing with a swirled-in appearance
around the ankles Gowns for after
noon and evening wear that follow
these lines have strange little tails
attached in the form of trains, which
are quite as likely to come from the
front or side as from the back

Golden ROUGH on Black Frock.

To brighten and smarter a black
frock in satin or crepe de chine, there
is nothing equal to golden colored ma
terial on the collar, the cuffs and the
sash end. Depending entirely upon the
woman and the occasion for which she
needs the frock, these golden touches
must be applied. The collar, the cuffs
and the sash end may be wholly Of
gold lace yelling cloth of gold; the
satin or crepe may have gold motif
and medallion encrustations, applique;
or there may be merely bands in gold
ribbon arabesques in gold braiding, or
the slenderest of pipings In gold cloth.

WIND STAMPEDES FINE BUGS
Native Butterflies of the Death Valley
Region Blown Over Noun
tains.

San Bernardino, Cal.-Since the re-
cent heavy north wind there have
been thousands of butterflies OBJ
served in the city, many of them OF
a different species than usually seen
on this side of the range.
Particularly noticeable is brown
butterfly of a species peculiar to the
Death Valley region and never seen
this side of the mountains.
1t is believed - heavy winds on
the desert blew the insects over the
mountains and their presence here
can be accounted for in no other
way.
Their appearance has been of great
interest, especially to men who are
used to travelling the desert, and who
quickly recognized the butterflies.

MANY VISIT CAIRO
Tourists Heed the Call of Egypt'S
Attractions.
Present Season Promises to Be Ona
of the Best Egyptian City Has
Had for Many Years-Vis-
itors Catered To.

Cairo.-The present season promises
to be one of the best Cairo has had for
several years. The hotels are nearly
full and the Nile steamers are already
nearly all let. Of late years the ter
rible Khamsin winds have not set in
until late in May, and conditions gen.
orally have improved very considera
bly, during the past few years.
One can now land at Alexandria and
motor up to Cairo, where car is to-
day of the greatest utility for dashing
out to Heliopolis for concerts, aviation
and other attractions; for running
over to Helouan, the suburb favored
by the late khedive; for making an ex-
cursion along the Pyramids road, con-
structed for the opening of the Suez
canal by that master organizer, Ismail
Pasha, to Mena house, at the foot of the
Pyramid of Cheops; for visiting the
Barrage. with it's medieval superstruc-
ture and it's picturesque gardens, and
even for taking trips along the old
Suez or the Alexandria road.
The tastes of visitors and residents
are amply catered to all over Egypt
especially in Cairo, which, by reason
of its being the hub of the official
world, is also naturally the social CEN
ter Of the country. A good deal Of pri-

>vate entertaining goes on, but with the
exception of the garden parties given
by Lord Kitchener at the agency
which, bordering on the river, enables
a magnificent view of the country and
the Pyramids to be obtained-and of
the private dinner parties and at
homes" which the British agent and
General and Mrs. Byng give at their
residences, most of the dinners and re.
ceptions are held at the various hotels.
Polo forms prominent part of the
social program. On at least three af.

played by Ghezireh, and it has be.

BOOTS MUST BE BUTTONED
Laces Altogether Out Of Fashion
Cloth Tops and Curved Heels
Are Other Features.

Every requirement of good form Is
answered in new boot Its buttoned
top is of fine twilled cloth and its
vamp of patent leather has the trim,
slender look which suggests a patri.
clan foot within. But not all the feet

full lines by Disgusting defects of ma.
ture. At any rate, the fashionable
boot is slender and long-lined and it
is buttoned. No laced boot would dare
show itself in a drawing room. or
on q dancing floor, or even on Fifth
avenue at promenade hour
Another smart feature about the
seasons boot is its curved heel. This
is not Louis XIV heel, for it does
really support the foot and the weight
of the body; but its graceful curve
gives it a French effect. These rather
frivolous boot heels have come in with
the dancing craze, for every article of
attire these days must be donned with
a possible dance during the day or
evening in mind.

SCRATCHED BY Picked HAM
Under Washington State Law Work
man Gets Paid for Lay-off
of Ten Days.

Olympia, Wash.-Employes of the
Industrial insurance department de.
clare the most novel claim presented
since the law went into effect is that
received from Alvcdor Gernonpre, EN-.
ploye of Seattle packing plant, who
reported being scratched by picked
ham. 1t was the boon of the ham
that inflicted the damage" Gernonpre
set forth, infection setting In later. He
asked and got compensation for ten
days idleness.
Recently another packing plant EN-.
ploye reported that he had been
kicked in the mouth by a pig" and
the department is inclined to believe
that the vicious picked ham must
have come from that ferocious porker.
