SHAPED MUSLIN COVER
USEFUL FOR PROTECTION OF
FOOD IN HOT WEATHER.
Best Material for the Purpose Is Of
Fine Mesh With a Border OF
Heavy Beads That Will Keep
1t From Blowing Off.

A thin cover is necessary for cover
ing over basins, jugs, or. any article
containing food and liquid during the
summer time.
The cover should be such as to adj
nit the air. yet it must keep out flies,
dust, or any other foreign matter.
The best material for this purpose
Is fine muslin; it can be bought very
cheaply, and several covers can be
made from half yard.
Round shapes are easily obtained
by turning basin upside-down on
the muslin and marking round it with
pencil different sizes will be needed,
and different articles can be used to
mark out with, such as cups, glasses,
etc.
Hem round the circle neatly, then
it will need the border of beads as
indicated in the sketch. This border
is essential, otherwise, the covers
would not stay on the different YES
sells, they easily blow off, the beads
act as weights, and as they are equal
ly distributed all round the muslin,
it is kept exactly in place.
When the circle has been hemmed
round, take some very coarse crochet
cotton; commence on the border by
making three buttonhole stitches.
Now thread on one, two or three
beads, allow about an inch and half
of cotton to hang loose, and go into
the edge of the cover again with three
buttonhole stitches, then thread more
beads and proceed all the way round.
The beads should be rather large
aid of the heavy variety, those sold
in links do splendidly; the links cost
very little and contain good num-
Der; all kinds of pretty colors can be
had.
These covers are most useful for
covering over milk jugs, basins, unset
jellies, glasses Of lemonade, ETC., etc.
In the sick room they are very handy,

NEW CURE FOR BADNESS

Yes, they say new cure for badness has
been discovered in Boston, warranted to grow
hair on bone or whiskers a cake of ice.
So the man with a clearing on his pate will
come in for few bromide joshes from
the gentlemen with incandescent imaginations
It may serve to check the torrent to remark that
it is believed that the first cure for badness was
discovered In the early part of the reign of that
Pharaoh of Egypt who drowned while chas
ing Moses and Aaron on moving day for the
land of Goshen. At any rate the Pharaoh was
bald and physicians of his time peddled remedies
for badness, so there is case of circumstantial
evidence. AS badness has persisted until this
date It is to be presumed that some of these
badness cures have been bald fakes The Bos
ton cure may be perfectly legitimate thing
able to do all that is claimed for it-but there
may be persons who will prefer badness to hair
not considering hairlessness much of an afic
ton as constant visits to the barber shop There
are all sorts of opinions among us, you know

any one The low, soft roll is very be-
coming to full, round neck, and
new finish for these organdy soft col
lars is haIf-inch tie of black net or
tulle. with a long tassel of bright col
bred beads. Some dared and pointed
organdy collars with fichulike vestee
of folds have finish inside of fine en-
broidered edging with turret edge
resting on the neck. A small point
ed collar has fat venise edging two
inches wide which follows the roll Of
the collar, enlarging it to the usual
size. Cape effects in turnover collars
are new. Those Of organdy are en-
broidered In solid outline and eyelet
work, while piques have solid embroid-
cry.
Guimpes in many cases have a yes
