KITCHEN DECORATION.

A woman who believes that d kitchen should be a pretty room wonders why most people do not hold the same opinion says an eX- change.
 Of original tastes. she has devised this scheme of color and decoration for her kitchen. The walls she has painted a bright sunshiny yellow the woodwork and chairs a deep Prussian blue, the color of the pat tern in her kitchen crockery and the cornglower pattern Of her white tiled stove, which has shining metal top.
 We are slaves to the idea that a stove must be black and ugly" she says, T got cured of this idea in visit to Holland, where I bought my pretty stove"
 The windows of her kitchen are hung with sash curtains made of glass toweling barred in blue At the center of their sills a little square bracket shelf has been attached, up on which stands a gay geranium.

Of all the vegetables in common use I look upon the cabbage as my best friend, says Mrs. Rorer in Pie torial Review. When well headed and bleached it is more dainty than any member of it's family, not eX- cepting Brussels sprouts nor Savoy. In the hands of a dainty and artistic cook it lends itself to great vari- ety of dishes and is superior in fla vor and color to it's more aristOcratic relative, the cauliflower. To have stand it's peculiaritieS. It must not be boiled long enough to throw off an odor or it loses it's color. flavor and digestibility. In speaking of the average cook and her ability to ren- der foods digestible l frequently quote an old saying about cabbage:
 Raw it requires two hours for per feet digestion, but after it has passed through the hands of the cook it re- quires five hours." Understand, please, this condition is not neces- sary-when daintily cooked it IS more digestible than when raw. It cannot be cooked with meats or greasy material, nor can it be boiled for two or three hours and not ut terly spoiled. For salad take a hard bleached head, shave it as fine as possible, wash through two or three cold waters and soak it in very cold

THE BABYS BATH.

After the baby is a week or ten days old it should be given bath every day This can be given more quickly and thoroughly than can a sponge bath, and there is less danger of chilling. The water should be com fortably warm, but not hot. It is well to lay a bath towel in the bottom of the tub and put only a small amount of water at first, so as not to frighten the baby. If baby is plunged i'm mediately into tub of water, 1t IS apt to become startled and may nev- CT recover from his fear of water while if the water is added gradually the baby soon learns to enjoy it's morning dip.

A HAT HINT.

Should you be caught in a shower of rain, and your best hat with all it's pretty trimmings looks like a mass of water soaked flowers, chif- ion and ribbon, do not worry Shake the hat well, suspend it from any convenient place where it may hang upside down, leave it until dry The flowers and trimming will dry in their proper position, and the hat will not show it's impromptu bath.

CLEANING VARIOUS ARTICLES
 OF ATTIRE

Lace woven stockings in white and delicate tints may be cleaned with benzine or naphtha instead of by the ordinary process of washing. They should be turned inside out, shaken free from dust, laid flat in dish and covered with the fluid After violent stirring, they should be laid, the other side down, in clean naphtha Then they should be hung in the air until all Odor disappears.
 Soiled white canvas or kid shoes may be cleaned by rubbing with dry pipe clay applied with a stiff brush. They may also be rubbed clean with deodorized benzine, fol lowed with an application of pipe clay.
 If white dresses, either cotton, lin en, woolen or silk, are laid away without proper wrapping, they will become yellow. They should be done up in blue tissue paper and then in a sheet or coarse muslin cloth of some sort.
 Leather boots, belts or bags that have been wet or soaked into state of hardness or stiffness may be soft ened by rubbing plentifully with coal oil

 funny detail we have from that period is the one of food. These ladies, whose desire was to appear scarcely human but rather creatures aloof and mysterious. seldom ate before their admirers They would nibble lightly at some especially de licious bit. and then sighingly re mark that they felt i'll. But in priv ate. with only the indifferent eye of their maids upon them-what a change. They are said to have eaten rather more than heartily.
 THE "HOUR-GLASS" FIGURE.
 Even within the last decade fash ions of beauty have taken change for the better. Whereas it was at one time necessary to possess the hours glass" figure, We now have the free, unrestrained form. Where as the feet were not so long ago crowded into shoes far too small in order that they might appear pc tite and dainty, women nowadays rather reyel in the fact that their feet are large enough to stand upon. ! On the whole, alarmists ought not to so severely censure this our age. If women are paying more attention to their looks now-which is doubt ful-they are assuredly doing it in far more healthy manner.

As it grows older and stronger it should be allowed to play in the water for about if teen minutes. as the skin absorbs some water, which is beneficial to the system. Besides this. the water re- layes the muscles and aids in over coming many wrong conditions.

 Architect J. A. Creutzer has com pIeted the working plans of the structure, and has already secured the permit from the city It is eX- pected that the structure will be completed for occupancy about July 15. In the rear of the building a so-called projecting room will be constructed for the preliminary eXhi- bition of pictures to managers of film houses. This room will be modeled after the general style of a theatre. with the exception that there will be no seats in the body of the room A small balcony in the rear will accommodate eight people, which will give it the dis tinction of being the smallest the atre in the world.
 This building will be. so far as is known, the only one of it's kind in the country. Other structures have been erected elsewhere to house various companies but this is the only one, according to authorities, to be built especially for the use of one company.

With the changing regime of nation come changing ideals of beauty. In order to draw a distinct parallel. let Us consider the days of feudalism. when the women might be divided into three classes. those who had the leisure and money to be beauties, those who waited on these ladies" and, finally, the poor peasant woman who had neither the means to be beautiful nor the incli- nation or ability to act as maids to those who possessed beauty.
 ORIGINAL CoRsETs.
 There was no beauty in the last named class-that of the peasantrv. There was little beauty of the coarser more robust type among the second class and there was d great deal of very wonderful beauty in the first class. that of the gentle women.
 Theirs was the fragile, elusive and ethereal type. As they were being captured in the feudal wars with as tonishing regularity, they speedily found out that the most picturesque and graceful way to submit to such an indignity was to faint Accord ingly. they tainted at the drop of d plumed hat.
 Red cheeks were considered blow sy. It was then that the French proyerb. Fl faut suffrir pour etra belle" probably originated. Trans lated, it means, "It is necessary to suffer to be beautiful"
 In order that a woman might ap- pear fragile. her body was screwed in to a terrible instrument of tor
