Grammar School Pupils, Led by Prof.
 Matthews, Heard to Advantage.
 Parents and friends to the number of 700 and more attended the annual concert given in the Grammar school all last night by the pupils of that school. Professor George B. Mat thews was the conductor, there being $50 boys and girls in the chorus. The selection was choral fantasia from Lolnengrin and the work done by the young singers was meritorious and reflected much credit upon themselves and their instructors.
 Theron Walcott Hart assisted on the piano and Miss Rhea Massicotte, Of Meriden,, carried the soprano air and rendered solo selections. Samuel Gross, violinist, Fillmore Ohman, pianist, and Roger Holmes 'cellist, rendered pleasing instrumental music.
 This cantata will be repeated this evening at o'clock in the Grammar school hall, the proceeds going to the art fund of the school.

A dress that could be. worn for a tall or other formal occasion is a charming frock, the striking feature of which is the bodice made without sleeves. The waist sections are nar- roWed over the shoulders, where they are tied in bows. The edge of the bodice, as we'll as the bows, are f1n- ished by picOt edge. The close arm hole is finished by a little ruffle which is shirred on the under side. The front of the bodice is of pale pink satin trimmed by a semi i-circle of pink and blue roses, the blue being a darker shade than the dress. Soft white lace is placed across the top of the bodice. 5T
 The skirt is shire on to the waist and forms a narrow ruffle at the top. Tn the direct front the skirt is again shirred and trimmed by a spray of pink and blue roses. The sides are plain, while the back is araped up in a hustle effect This dress has the quaint air so much striven for this season. M
 Maroon Silk Wrap.
 A good shop has wrap which would serve equally we'll for afternoon or evening wear. It is made of bro- ceded maroon silk, with the we'll liked kimono sleeve. Brown marabout trims the edges, which are slightly cut away in front It fastens on the left side by loop and button. The wrap comes both lined and unlined. It may be had in ali colors.
 Hair Ornaments.

 There seems no limit to the wear ing of beads, and very often they are of semi-precious stones, such as car- nelian, lapis or jade.
 Some of the prettiest handkerchief linen shirtwaists are the extreme of simplicity and made, strange to say, with raglan sleeves.
 The very closely fitting petticoats of jersey silk are the best with the present fashions--if one is going to wear any petticoats at all.
 If you cannot afford pair of shoes for each costume, have white or pale gray tops to those for day, and use pale pink shoes for evening.
 A delightful imported hat was sim- ply covered with embroidered crepe; it's only ornament knot of flowers which precisely matched the pat tern.
 Messaline princess slips are in de- naand once more to wear under lin- gerfe gowns.
 Gold brocaded chiffon makes some of the prettiest bodies to the sum- nter evening gowns.

 Striped silk dresses are made of striped silk, with scalloped founces and natty little borders
 An odd little new suit has straight coat finished with ruffle of the same material
 At present the safest sort of hand bag to choose is leather one, flat and thin and shallow.
 More and more feminism is dis played in all apparel for women: and if affects not only material but line.
 Very long and very full sleeve frills give certain grace and quaintness to some of the present fashions.
 new-fashioned collar is one of the best ways of persuading coat of last year to assume the effect of this.

Household Notes

Boots should never be allowed to go too far before they are repaired; :; often a few coppers spent in time will keep them in good condition. Heels should be kept straight, otherwise the boot loses shape and it's wearer good carriage.
 To clean black marble clocks, wash marble with warm water, then ap- ply with a piece of flannel little boot polish. Rub lightly all over with a soft cloth. and the marble will look like new. The less polish used the better the result.
 Lemon juice is splendid for whiten- ing the hands and removing discolor- ing marks from the nails. Don't throw away the lemons from which the juice has been squeezed, but rub the nails with them after washing. This will help to keep them white.
 It is simply ruinous to put boots to dry by the fire; the leather cracks and becomes hard, and the shape is spoiled. Sea water does not improve shoes, but when at the seaside it is almost impossible to keep them from getting wet, dry in the usual way. and rub in little oil.
 When ink has got under the finger nail, after thoroughly scrubbing with a nailbrush in soap and very hot water, twirl a piece of cotton wool round the point of an orange stick, dip this in lemon juice and pass un- der the nail; it will take the stain away. If it is very bad use little peroxide of hydrogen instead.
 Instead of sweeping carpets which are laid on the floor of the room which has to be tidied, put a table spoonful of ammonia into a gallon of warm water. Take a cloth, wiring it

BoRpERED MATERIAL, ELBOW OR ToN0 SLEEVES.
 This simple shirrcd blouse is a pro- nounced favorite of the season and very charming it is for small women as we'll as for young girls. 1t is essentially smart in its lines yet 1t is the simplest thing in the world to make. There are only two seams to be scwed. In the illustration, 1t is made of lowered crepe and the edges are turned under to form headings but, since the inner edges are straight, Aouncing and bordered material can be used with success and, in such case, the edge of tho material makes its own finish. Shadow lace founcing which is greatly in demsnd would be charming with. the inner edges left untouched and the sleeve edges turned under and finished with hem-stitching on the lines of the frills.
 For the I6 year size, the blouse win require 7X yds. of naateriai z7, 36 or A z7 in. wide.

Sweep toward you with the cloth. All the bits, which are sometimes diff fcult to sweep, adhere to the cloth. until wrung out again in the water.
 To make windows very clean wash with good securing soap, rinse and rub with a flannel cloth wet with vinegar. Then polish with a dry cloth.
 If you have good white silk gloves which have turned yellow. soak them in clear strong coffee and you will have fresh-looking tan pair in- stead.
