Ideal Laundry Container.

A laundry chute is perhaps the ideal
container for soiled wearing apparel
and household linens. That is to say,
the chute is the ideal means Of con-
veying the laundry to it's ultimate con-
tainer in the laundry. But many
houses have no laundry chutes, and
even with chute there is still the
problem of caring for the soiled arti-
cles to consider.
We live. doubtless, in fastidious age.
When the family washing was per-
formed only once month, or even less
often when the clothes were carried to
! the nearest river to be washed, there
must have been little thought about
| the task of keeping them until laundry
| day. Doubtless they were stored In
| chesr-and that was the end OF the
matter. 1t is only now when a weekly
! laundry day has supplanted a quarter
| annual one that We worry about our
| methods of caring for soiled clothes.
| The nuns of the medieval hospitals at
Paris used to chop through the ice of
| the Seine in the winter and stand in
the icy water knee deep to do their
patients washing. They probably wor-
ried little about the sort of hamper
| they used.
! wicker hamper is perhaps the ideal
! laundry container. But 1t must be
! kept clean. one enameled Whlte looks
SO clean that it is hard to remember
| that it may harbor impurities. even
| germs. 1t must be washed in hot
| water occasionally, and dried in the
| sunshine, and then occasionally it can
be further refreshed with a clean coat
! of enamel
| Perhaps the ideal method is to have
a sunny, dry laundry, and there to
gather the soiled clothes. Everything
damp, like bath towels, should be
spread out on a washable wooden or
metal rack and dried each day, then
placed in a basket or hamper. The
clothes should not be piled together
pell-mell. Table linen should be kept
! by itself in separate hamper. House
hold linen can be kept in another and
clothes in a third.
A big white enamel tin box is an
admira BILE holder for nursery laundry
| from sick room. This should be
emptied. scalded and aired every day
the laundry put into boiling water or
a disinfecting fluid in the meantime.
| Laundry bags in the different rooms
can be emptied every day into hampers.
These bags should be of a sort easily
washed, and every couple of weeks
they should be washed

CHILD's ONE-PIECE APRON.

sort. however, are most useful for all
occasions, when a good strong cotton
material should be selected. There are
a number of such fabrics which are as
heavy as the heavier weaves of cretonne,
and many of them very beautiful in tex
ture and color. These ia brics wear well
and wash well, and are thick enough to
prevent jam or milk, spilled on the apron,
from soaking through it into the dress
beneath. This is. valuable thing in
connection with a child's apron, because
it should be serviceable or ornamental,
and the one thing should be thick and
the other thin.
A pretty way to make this apron for
a gift would be to use a plain, colored
fabric and trim it with a narrow Dor
der of Powered cretonne. Then cut out
a flower from the cretonne and sew it
on the little pocket and on each little
sleeve flap and in the center of the
front. This ornament can be quickly and
easily applied and it will make the apron
beautiful and please both mother and
child. If the goods happen to have a
bird pattern, why. then, use the bird

Short Sleeves for Street.
The French gowns are including the
short puffed sleeve of 1860 in few
street fEocks. This fashion is start
ling. When young girl who wore
such a frock took off her coat at a
smart restaurant and those at luncheon
saw her bare arms, topped with puffs
at the armholes and ending in gloves,
they frankly stared her nearly out of
countenance; not quite out of counte-
nance. for, you see, she had gone there
expecting to create a sensation.
BY the way. the gloves worn were
quite new and from Paris. They were
laced up the front. their silken cords
dangling with tassels from the top.

The Fashion of Flounces.

II there is no other way to use up
material this winter. fiounces alone will
take up the surplus. They are the
easiest method of obtaining an appear
ance of width and the most graceful
way of making a short skirt for dane
ing.
Since the era of narrow. plain skirts
departed il is 30 simple matter to find
a model that contains all the necessary
features demanded by fashion and al
the same time is becoming.
The home dressmaker for this reason
finds founces a convenience. She needs
only a moderately wide slip of silk oi
satin, then pair of scissors and p&enty
of fabric. The result is ruffies. Tnt
bodice can be what she chooses above
such skirt: cuirass, Victorian with a
IacoIletage dropped off the shoulders
with short pulled sleeves. or tight ones

Cut the eggplant in two; scrape out

Tulle still retains it's place in popu-
lar favor for evening gowns. The
gown in the drawing is especially
charming. The entire gown is white
tulle-a softly crushed length crossing
each shoulder and disappearing be-
meath bust deep girdle of pink satin,
which is, in turn. belted with blue vel
vet ribbon. A little bowknot of mar
row blue velvet ribbon holds three
pink roses and is placed on the front
of the girdle. The skirt consists of
two full fiounces of tulLe hung over a
pink satin bordered underskirt of the
same. The upper flounce and little
sleeve rufi1es are piped with pink satin.
