AN ATTRACTIVE BATHROOM

are charming in bathroom windows.
Such windows are usually small and
set rather high in the wall, so such
a shade need not be very large.
1t may be hung with loops of tape
to an ordinary brass window rod and
should hang fiat against the window
opening, the drawn back or cut work
border running across the lower edge
above a deep hem.
Hand-embroidered and initiated
towels give a suggestion of luxury
and distinction, and the housekeeper
can do the simple embroidery very
easily and quickly in odd moments.
But whatever the kind of towels be
sure there are always plenty. There
are few things more maddening than
to be all ready to step into a bath
and to discover that one must dress
and take a trip to the linen closet
for towels and wash cloth.-Ex-

A Sound Box

Take an ordinary rubber band and
stretch IL between the thumb and
forefinger of your left hand.
If you pick it with the fingers of
the right hand and let go suddenly II
will make a sound you can near
distinctly enough yourself, but which
will not be audible to anyone a few
feet away. But If you were to fasten
the elastic, with pin at each end,
to an empty wooden box, only not so
ss to touch the wood, and then
twang it, the sound would be much
louder than before. That box is the
sound box, or sound board, and all
stringed instruments have one in
some shape or other.-St. Nicholas.

A New Button Bag

A bottle with a screw-top is better
than a bag or box for holding odd
hooks and eyes and buttons.
The contents can be seen at

hunting.
Use one bottle for large buttons
and keep one especially for holding
the small buttons used on children S
clothes.

White paint and white woodwork
are most attractive in the bathroom
unless one is blessed with a luxu-
rious white tiled and white enameled
room, such as the modern apartment
houses provide for their occupants.
There should always be a breeze
blowing the white curtain at the
bathroom window in summer time,
and the shaded bathroom, with blinds
bowed outside or an awning let down,
is much more grateful to the warm
and weary seeker of a cool plunge
than room into which the sun pours
blindingly.
growing plant on the window
sill will add to the cool suggestion
of the bathroom, and in summer the
floor covering may be taken up and a
blue and white rag rug laid before
the tub.

Black and white remain the ia
vorite backgrounds on which to build
the most exquisite and fascinating
creations. For example, on a narrow

be a wide frill of gold tulle, embroid-
cred at the bottom in a dainty ara

corsage, long and uneven, Is black
satin. the decollstage and the sleeves
bordered with gold braid.
Gray is not a becoming color to
the majority of women, whether in
checks or in solid tones, but evidently
it is to be the fashion. One sees
more and more gowns of it as the
round of the various fashionable
places is made.
So far there are few check suits,
but there are many of these checked
gowns, and everywhere there are
silver gray and stone gray gowns and
dance frocks made of satin and tulle.

1t is rather late in the year to

six teaspoonfuls of molasses. the

Mix thoroughly and place IN Gov

Some people prefer equal portions
Of sulphur and molasses. This. or

The usual dose is a teaspoonfal
before breakfast and on retiring.
Should this amount prove sicken-

Made Government See Point.

Lieutenant Waghorn found it diff.
cult to convince the British postoffice
OF the value Of the isthmus OF Suez
as a means of shortening the letter
route to India. He guaranteed to
transmit bag OF letters to India and
return with others to England in the
same time that 1t then took the letters
to go. He was granted permission to
make 6e attempt, and difficulties at
once cropped up. Coal at Port Said
was $50 ton, at Suez 500. so he load.
ed camels with coal and took them
across the isthmus. When he reached
Suez with the letters the steamer
which he had arranged to meet him
was not there. This difficulty he sur
mounted by chartering an open Arab
boat and forcing the crew at the pistol
point to take him the 600 miles down
the Red sea to Jeddah, where he found
a steamer to take him to Bombay, and
the return journey he completed well
within the time. Thenceforward the
isthmus route became the overland
route, for Waghorn was able to con-
vince the Arabs that the protection Of
the mails was better than looting
them. English gold being his strongest
argument.
