art. The exclusive coiffures of the
Rue de la Paix are showing attrac-
tive wigs of holiotrope and emerald
The purple pcruke is also considered
especially engaging by those who de-
light in the ultra. For the more con-
servative. plain black and-white pat
terms in hair are preferable. Wigs OF
this style come in checks, stripes and
plaids. Polka-dots are affected by
some, but the dilettantes in dress con-
slider them extremely bourgeois, sug-
costing, as they do, busting caps and
aprons.
For the theatre, the best style of
couture is a soft black-and white
plaid. Managers have banned loud
checks. claiming that they spoil the
acoustics of the house.

This attractive collar may be en-
broidered on batiste, lawn or hand
kerchief linen in solid embroidery
and buttonhole stitch. Just now
there is a fad of net neckwear and
it is very dainty and pretty. Buy
the finest of white cotton net, which
comes at dollar and a quarter
yard for the seventy-two-inch
width, or seventy-five cents a yard
for the thirty-six-i width. The
finer the net the easier 1t will be to
embroider 1t. Do not try to stamp
the design on the net, but haste the
pattern to the under side of the
material, then work over the paper
with soft white mercerized cotton.
The pattern will give a foundation
to work on and can easily be torn
away when the embroidery Is fin
ished.
Such collar would be appropriate
for wear with a frock or blouse of

Madame Schumann- Heink often
sings, will be very grateful

It is pleasure.

oh, the days of the Kerry dancing
oh, the ring of the piper's tune!
Oh, for one of those hours of glad
ness,
Gone, alas, like our youth, too sooni
When the boys began to gather,
In the glen of a summers night,
And the Kerry piper's tuning
Made us long with wild delight.
oh, to think of it, oh, to dream of
1t,
Fills my heart with tearst
Was there ever sweeter colleen
In the dance than Milly More,
Or a prouder lad than Thady,
As he boldly took the floor?
Lads and lassies, to your places.
Up the middle and down again"
All, the merry-hearted laughter

It,,
Fills my heart with tears.
Time goes on, and the happy years
are dead.
And one by one the merry hearts
are fled;
Silent now is the wild and lonely
glen,
Where the bright glad laugh will
echo meier again,
Only dreaming of days gone by,
In my heart / hear,
Loving voices of old companions,
Stealing out of the past once more.
And tho sound of the dear old
music,
Soft and sweet as in days of yore.
When the boys began to gather
In the glen of summer night,
And the Kerry piper's tuning
Made us long with wild delights
oh, to think of it, oh. to dream
of it,
Fills my heart with tears.

Little Things That Add
to Baby's Happiness

Don't think that because the baby
grows up so soon it is not worth
while to provide him with con-
veniences. An inch thick rope, COW
cred with soft material and stretched
across a corner of the room about a
foot from the floor, will help the
baby to pull himself UP or guide him
in walking. His little hands grasp 1t
easily and it is an amusement as
well as an aid in his baby gymnas-
tics 1t may be fastened to the wall
on hooks and taken down when de-
sired.
4 row of pockets, made like slip
per case and attached with strings
To the foot of the baby's crib, is a
convenient place for rattle or ball,
a bedtime doll or an extra handker-
chief or napkin, says f. HI. in the
Mothers Magazine.
A low table with drawer is indis-
pensabIe for the childrens play room.
and may be devised by saving off
the legs of a discarded kitchen table

There is something warm and at
tractive about plaids that make
them very pleasing for early spring
days. The plain, comparatively
straight lined one-piece frocks are
better suited to these than the
pulled or pannier effects.
Paris says that the new skirts will
continue narrow and that bodices
and blouses will be loose. Both long
and short sleeves are favored and
the drop-shoulder, the raglan ef-
feet. and the set-in-sleeve with the
slightly enlarged arms eye, are all
popular.
We have a rather unusual sleeve
in No. $3.50 which is developed in a
softly colored plaid in which blues,
reds and greens are tremendously
combined. 1t is brought about by
the raglan shoulder and a gathered
lower sleeve of contrasting material.
This material. which is blue satin,
is used also for the collar and the
trimming band down. the front of
the dress. e. s.

A HEAD IS AN IMPORTANT ASSET TO
THE HOUSEWIFE WHO WOULD SAVE STEPS

There are some housewives who ap-
pear to live in chronic condition of
chaos, and comfort is sadly lacking
in their homes. They have simply no
method whatever in their work. If
they start to clean a room they pause
in the middle of the task to tackle
something omitted yesterday; and so,
running here and there, they give
themselves a deal of trouble, and the
end of the day finds them dead beat
and hopelessly in a muddle, writes a
contributor of the Camden Daily
Courier.
They are the antlthesis of those
other women who err in the opposite
extreme. Every morning on the min
ute they sit down to breakfast, and
woe betide the late conner. After
ward they work on schedule time. The

WASHING RUGS WITH.
SOAP AND WATER

All genuine oriental rugs and many
of domestic make can be washed with
soap and water.
The method most successful is to
take a thick suds and apply it with
a heavy cloth, wrung almost dry in
it.
The cloth should be rubbed in the
direction of the nap of the rug, and
after all grease spots and other dirt
have disappeared the whole surface
of the rug should be sponged until
all trace of soap is gone with cloth
wrung out of clear water.
The rug must be left to dry where
it is cleaned, fiat on the floor.

PLATED SHIRT BOSOMS
ON DAINTY BLOUSES

The, shirt bosoms which swerc intro
duced in chiffon on the chiffon and
crepe dc chine blouses this winter
are evidently to continue as the dis
tinguishing feature of the tailored
waists for early spring.
There is one difference, however,
they are now developed in a contrast
ing material
For instance on a model in light
weight linen the shirt bosom is of
plated handkerchief linen, with a
tiny floral design in color scattered
over it, this color not being repeated
on the Robespierre collar.
