sister who has acquired more skill from
years of practice.
In the first place. towels done in cross
| stitch are in great favor just now, and
| if one chooses a certain style OF letters
| and uses them on various sizes on all her
towels she will find her bathroom will
look most attractive, quite as much sc
as il her towels were all deliberately en-
broidered in white.
| 1t gives a very much prettier effect II
I one will decide on either pink or blue
for her bathroom, and then use only
| that color: or il blue be the favorite
shade blue letters with tiny pink flow
ers and green leaves will give just enough
variety to add touch of style. Cross
stitch is very easy work and requires
only a little care before one becomes
quite skilful.
Another little trick is to buy towels
in good quality with the scallops done
by machine and then go over it by
hand. the machine work furnishing the
best kind of padding. After a little prac-
tice one will find that even initials are
not difficult, the large ones being much
easier than small ones If she can draw
little trailing vine with dots for flow
ers and simple leaves, winding around
the letters, 1t will add greatly to the
effect and will also detract from the Sc
verify OF the letters themselves, so that
any uneven stitches are less apt to
show.
Bath towels especially are effective
with one big letter in cross-stitch. while
II one wishes it is very easy to button
hole a big scallop along the edge and
thus have a wonderfully good-looking
towel-to hang up for looks" a thing
every bride thinks much of.
Scallops may be drawn around a quar-
ter or half dollar or indelible paper de-
signs purchased in the shops that can
be transferred to the material by press
ing with a hot iron.
As to the number Of towels required.
It depends, of course. greatly on the
amount of money one can afford to
spend. but four to six dozen towels is
plenty for any two people. and if one
watches the sales. which take place con-
stantly. good huck towels may be picked
up for 25 cents apiece, bath towels for
the same price. while damask and finer
huck ones may be purchased for 35 to
90 cents each, when soiled.

CLEANING MIRRORS.

Take a soft sponge, cleaned of every
thing gritty. dip it into water and squeeze
1t almost dry. Dip it into some spirit
of wine, and then rub II over the glass.
Next, dust the glass with some powder
blue or whitening sifted through muslin:
wipe the powder lightly and quickly of
again with a cloth; then take a clean
cloth and rub the glass well once more,
and finish by rubbing 1t with silk hand
kerchiei.
II the glass be very large, clean one
half at a time, as otherwise the spirit
of wine will dry before II can be rubbed
off II the frames are rot vanished. the
greatest care must be taken not to touch
them with the sponge, as this will dis
color or take of the gliding.
To clean the frames, take a little cotton
wool and rub the frames with il. This
will take of all the dust and dirt without
injuring the gliding. II the frames are
well vanished, rub them with spirit of
WINE, which will take out all spots and
give them a fine polish.

"A PAGE FOR ALL THE FAMILY
WHITE FABRICS FOR
THE SPRING WEAR

Among the novelties in white goods
now appearing in the shops are the most
| charming patterns in white ratine and
heavy white cotton crepes yet seen.
The ratinss offer unusual checked and
planted effects In raised and knotted
threads posed upon loosely but very firm
ly woven backgrounds.
In fact, the pattern of one white check
ed ratine duplicated rice braid designs in
bewildering variety, while another had
simulated crocheted knots placed at regu-
lar intervals upon a surface of Mexican
drawn work design.
Striped effects In white cottons are also
to the fore. Very broad stripes are said
to be the most chic. and this design will
be offered in colored cottons, as well as
in the all white fabrics. q.
Many OF the all-whte stuffs are shown
in double widths.
Trimmings for gowns made Of these
white goods may be of ruffies made of
sheer white organdies. hemstitched or
picot edged. Picot edged and pintucked
fiounces of white net may be employed
Both trimmings are the newest In style
and are expected to have q very strong
vogue the coming season.
These trimmings will also vie in popu-
larity with the beautifully embroidered
bands and edgings of null and lawn for
the decoration of colored cotton dresses
OF all descriptions.
These colored cottons are very lovely.
Leading in favor are the crepes, dec
GRATED with quaint old-time flower bou-
quet designs of prim shape and dainti-
ness.
Voiles are as irresistible as ever and
are shown in delicate filminess. adorned
with pink. blue, green. yellow. and flame
colored stripes and dots and even with
embroidered sprigged fiowered designs.
With gowns made of these sheer mate
rials. and Paris is endeavoring to have
us wear gowns Of very sheer materials,
are to be worn extra jackets, made OF
solid color cotton corduroys.
These fabrics are woven in clever ipi-
tation of silk and wool corduroys and
velours de laine.
The wide vale stripes are most chic.
and when made up INTO loose, straight
hanging. tassel trimmed jackets with zig
sleeves reaching just below the elbows
and embroidered with broad devices in
Chinese design they become the most
attractive thing in the dress accessory
line yet seen.

CARE OF CHILDREN'S EYES.

Childhood is the period Of development
! from which man is evolved. AT this time
of life all the organs are impressionable
and they may be easily injured by over
work or abuse.
Many parents are culpabIy negligent
of their children's eyes. early attention
to which would very often obviate life
long annoyances and possibly injury to
physical health.
Former President Roosevelt writes the
following in a recent issue of Outlook
magazine:
quite unknown to myself. 7 was.
while a boy under a hopeless disadvan-
tage in studying nature. was very
nearsighted. so that the only things I
could study were those ran against or
stumbled over.
When l was about twelve ] was al
lowed to take lessons in taxidermy. 1t
was this summer that I got my first
gun and it puzzled me to find that my
COMPANIONS seemed to see things to
shoot at which could not see at all.
''One day they read about an advertise
ment in large letters on distant BILL
board and then l realized that something
was the matter. for not only was / I'M
able to read the sign, but l could not
even see the letters.
IT spoke Of this to my father and soon
afterward got my first pair Of spectacles.
which literally opened an entirely new
world to me. I had no idea how beau
tiful the world was until l got those
spectacles.
The recollection of this experience
gives me keen sympathy with those who
are trying in our public schools and
elsewhere to remove the physical causes
of deficiency in children who are often
unjustIy blamed for being obstinate or
unambitious, or mentally stupid.
Optemetry has slowly and surely pro-
gressed along similar lines to those OF
medicine, law and dentistry. and today
its recognition as a profession Is assured
by the spirit of its many progressive
practitioners, who are continually per-
fecting methods and devices for the ac-
curate application Of its theoretical prnr-
ciples.
Much of the suffering due to eye strain
would be relieved If the one so afflicted
would consult the optometrist, who is
now being rapidly recognized by the
world as the exclusive eye strain spe-

COUGHING QUICKLY DONE.

For the busy woman who has little
time to embrOider sofa pillows there is
one that works UP very quickly. 1t is
the couched pillow. Many designs can
be done in coEohing, but the favorite one
for this stitch is scroll work A cord,
aoutache braid, wool or rope silk is laid
about the design and tackled fast by far
apart buttonhole stitches of finer silk or
thread a rather pretty fashion is to
ave the buttOnholing thread of a con-
rasting color to that used for the large
,ouchfng thread. The buttonhole stitches
should be about an eighth of an inch
apart.
Still another COUGHING stitch, not so
elaborate, is that made by laying the
heavier thread on the stamped outline
and fastening it with perfectly straight
across stitches at regular inte&als, so
that the stitches made in the finer thread
look like neat little staples. Be careful
however. that the stitches are never so
far apart that the heavier thread springs
out of position. The stitches are usually
somewhat closer when rounding curves.

INITIATING.

Some women will trot from one small
shop to another in their neighborhood
searching for the initial Of which the
shops are Just out" while, with a
thought or two before the trip, they
could have saved themselves innumerable
steps A word to you. fair needleworker
Whenever you see an initial in magazine
or newspaper that plsases you and you
think would work up well, clip it out
and save it for tracing on to some piece
of linen that, before long. will need ini-
tialing. Cut out large bit Of paper
about the initial. place a bit of tracing
paper between the initial and the linen
to be initiated. and trace over, the initial
with a pencil or something pointed, yet
not so sharp as to cut through the paper.
and your initial will be transferred to
the linen.

Once in awhile a mans heart, with al

While it may be true that in some in

CHEAP FLOOR STAIN.

A very inexpensive stain can be made
from burnt umber and hot water Five
cents worth of the burnt umber will
stain several floors; that is, where a rug
is used for the center. Pour the hot
water OVER the burnt umber, little at a
time, till it is thoroughly dissolved. Use
a quart of hot water to cents worth of
lumber; that makes a pretty dark brown
stain. Let it dry. then rub on any good
