LAUNDRY HINTS.

After you have ironed the collar. band on a shirt, try a pineher clothes pin to hold the band in shape instead of a button;, it's much quicker and an- swers the purpose.
 To dry knitted goods, make a cradle out of a large Turkish towel by tying each end with a string, then hang the towel between two lines or between two wooden chairs Squeeze but do not wiring the article, and place it in the cradle. In this way it will dry more readily than in the pillow case for the air can get at it; besides it can be- turned as parts dry thus giv- ing the air a better chance at the wet parts.
 Many people are troubled about getting a. collar button in the collar band after it has been washed and ironed. Just before you iron the collar band, put a piece of paper folded to- gether two or three times right in the opening where you put the button up under. then iron till thoroughly dry; let stand, then remove the paper. You will find the opening free. to. put the button in.
 There should always be on hand near the laundry door a long sleeved, thick sweater that buttons snugly about the throat, and a woolen cap to pull over the head. Good rubbers should also be there and a pair of thick cotton wash gloves loose enough to pull on easily. These things would make colds among laundresses far fewer than they are.

FILING TIE REcoRns.

To make it easy for guests to choose their favorite phonograph records, make lists of records. giving the mum. Der under which you Shave filed the record, the name of the composition, the composers name and the name of the interpreter.
 If you have no cabinet, keep records near the photograph in the bookcase, standing on end in their envelopes. On the edge of each envelope paste a piece of heavy paper about one half inch wide by one inch long, so that about half-inch square of paper extends beyond the envelope On this the number of the listing of the rec ord is marked in ink in big figures.
 On the first record envelope paste the number even with the top on the next envelope about a half inch lower, on the next about a half inch lower still. If you start with a ten- inch record, No 1S will bring you to the bottom of an envelope, so start No. 19 at the top of the next envelope, and so on down again. This. of course, facilitates finding any record you wish
 The envelopes used in this way will naturally wear out, but ssou can pur- chase heavier ones or make them yourself from tough wrapping paper. If you have many records it is ad- visable to slip pieces of wood mar row stick will do-of the height be tween the bookcase shelves, to separ- ate. say. every twenty five records.
 This prevents too many record from leaning against each other, and if the sticks are well back from the edge they will not be noticeable.

 That the age of the bride need no longer be inscribed on the wedding certificate is 3, new rule in regard to French marriages. It is sufficient to she fs declared of age, a statement of specific age being unnecessary.

HoLEANp steekRNe ALuEs.

Time and again fhas it been shown that interest ebhs as the result of de- lays and it remains tlo be seen wheth- CT sl-cll proves to be the case in con aieetion with the demands of the aI- iied ns1ioas for the trrning over Of The former kaise- Tor prosecution.
 There was a t;rrse immediately fol- lowing the si.gnirg of the ,armistice. when there wouE have been no fhozrht Of acceDtsig no" as the an ever of Holland to the request that 1Viifseim be turned ever to the allies. since then. acce=d ing to the reports, Holland has indiolted both a willing ness 'ald an oppas ltion to the proposi- tion.- and during =iT the time. because cf tho mlny com plicatiens that were appearing. there .Fas been a feeling 1hat nothing wsIld ever come of the effort
 This has now been increased bv the definite reply of tEiollsrd to the allies .n which it refus,ss to give him HID. In Tnintigg ont that it easanot as a n9u trul nation in the s1Tar withdraw from The former kaiser the benefit of it's laws which nc sought as a refugee Holland takes only 1he position that it has been claimed it could take. It , as also been rsesized by the allied ,ati9ns that they were going beyond The laws in seekIngrllis surrender. and 1he getting control of inc kaiser was only one of the llany problems faced in bringing him to. trial
 It has been cF>arlv indicated that the world iri general believes that the former emperor should be tried for i-ls responsibility in the war just as much as those whc served under him but it is a question whether the allies are prepared 70 tlke the steps that VIII be necessary to accomplish it.
 As matters @t1-d at present the former kaizer is getting the protec- tion that he expected from Holland Germany could demand and get him, but that is not to be expected and it is a question whether the allies would go 10 the extreme of forcing Germany 10 act in such a way to help them any more than they would put the screws on Holland The allies are not dis posed to abandon the effort but there is presentel nevertheless the oppor- tunity 10 do so because of lack of le- gal means

TAFFETA DANCE Flocks.

Colored taffeta is very popular for dance frocks with the preference for flame, turquoise, orchid and Nile green. Most of these taffetas show draped skirts making broad hipline and are often made over petticoats~o of chiffon with ruffles or trimming of silver and gold lace. A particularly pretty model is of lowered taffeta, draped in panier effect over chiffon petticoat with little flowers tackled on it.
 Taffeta, it is predicted, will be used q great deal for youthful frocks this spring, more than any other material. Everyone will show 1t. Black taffeta is used also for dance dresses, re- lieved by means of little touches of silver ribbon or flowers. An effective dress of black taffeta has pointed ruffles on the skirt, picot edged with silver, and shoulder straps and a belt of silver ribbon.
 Chiffon yelets are employed for simply draped dresses the brilliant eolors being liked the best A pretty model is of black and silver net with a hoop covered with light blue rib bon. made over a georgette pettieoat, over which little. rosebuds are scatter ed. Darker dinner dresses have dark lace over satins and net with tinsel embroidery, the neckline being high in hack

HEALTH AND REALTY

Women with gray hair should never use curling irons; it turns the hair yellow.
 The kitchen is the most important room in the house from health standpoint. Keep everything about it and every one in it scrupulously clean.
 The head and the hair should be kept as clean as the face or any other part of the body, and cleanliness is essential to the health of the hair and scalp. Use pure mild scan, plenty of hot water, then rinse through several waters and you can wash as often as you like, much to the benefit of the hair
 An excellent shampoo Is made of the yolk of one egg, pint of hot rain water and one ounce of spirits of rosemary. Beat the mixture thor oughly and use it warm, rubbing it well into the skin of the head Rinse in several waters. A very safe lotion to use for falling hair is made of 4S grains of resorein, one fourth ounce glycerine, and diluted alcohol to fill a twe-ounce bottle. Rub this into the scalp every night

NEW colFFURE.

The quaint and the unusual are ap- bearing in the form of new hair dress ngs and beside the chic bobbed head the contours for the winter are show ing many an adaptation of the Grecian knot to the modern ceiffure.
 With the bobbed hair we have a covering of the ears, but the latest tendency is to let at least the lower tip of the ear lobe show 9 soft roll of waved tresses. This return of the ear to view has already made earrings, and especially ear pendants popular once more, and the jewels for the coli fure are now attached with a pair of long hanging, gem-set ear pendants.
 The Spanish style headdress, one that is famous through the art of the painter as well as the dances, has en- tered the field, and the open filigree of a high backed comb now makes the dividing line between a smoothly brushed head and a large, loose knot in many a fashionable headdress for the evening.

THE DEAD IN FRANCE.

Even though 1t has been promised by the war department that the bodies of the soldiers who were killed or died in Europe would he brought home. it Is becoming more and more evident that much serious consideration is going to be given to this subject be- fore definite action is taken.
 Tor the present the unwillingness of France to permit any removal is checking steps for the transfer of any except those in ether countries and those who are buried hack from the battlefront in France. Legislation is being sought for the return of all bod ies and certain interruptions under takers who nave an eye on. what they may get out of such business are be- ing urged to hack it
 IL has been announced by the war department that in keeping it's srrcnise st is intended to return only those bodies whose families ask for their ieturn, and there las just been organ szed an sss0ciatien of which Mrs Theodore Roosevelt is president to op- rose the bringing back of the bodies. Army officials and ehaplains are ad vfsinE against the transfer of the deed and they are not doing so because ef the expense that might be attached thereto. but because they consider it fnad-isabie for Iracftcal as well as sentimental reasms
 This makes it evident that this is a matter which everyone is going to give more tho1sht to than thex have

The very newest bag of the season is made of light tan colored string in filet crochet mesh, with a dainty bou- quet worked on in French knots in pink buds. blue forget me e-nots, purple violets and green leaves. The way to do this is to haste a piece of canvas in the center of the bag for a founda- ton and work the flowers on it very close together.
 The bag is lined with ecru satin and is edged with single crochet stitch in blue worsted' on the sides and in a graduated stitch for the tops The handles are made of soft cord cro- cheted over with the tan colored string. Another bag is wonder on cretonne, satin and worsted. It is of large size for mending or fancy we~lS The satin is peacock hue in shade. measuring at the top eight inches deep and eighteen inches wide. Applied to this with blue worsted, in buttonhole stitch is a strip of cretonne ten inches deep in gay colors.
 At the bottom is another strip of the satin six inches deep. This is gathered into the point of crocheted worsteds in rolors to match the cretonne. The bag is lined with orange colored silk and has celluloid rings sewed on two inches from the top through which to run plaited worsted cords matching the point.

MERGING TIE CHURCHES.

In these days when unity is getting more consideration than ever, and when there is greater interest being manifested in the union of denomina- tions. it is by no means surprising that the delegates to convention for the purpose of considering the consol- idation of the two big branches of the Methodist church should have reached decision that it was advisable
 For over three quarters of cen tury there has been division with the churches. in the north being known as the Methodist Episcopal and those in the south as the Methodist Episco- pal South. There was a time when they were united but the split came over the question of slavery and it has never been possible to heal the break up to this time. Tn view of the fact that the union has been recommended it is to be expected that the ratifica- ton that will be necessary by the diff ferent conferences will come this year. There appears to. be no good reason why they~shouid continue as separate bodies just because there was di- vision on such question. That was long ago decided and the decision the branches of the church should have been accepted before this and proba- bly, would have but for the prejudices, although the separation has not been so real in later years as during the early ones and it does not appear to have had very serious effects upon the growth of the respective branches.
 There has apparently been a recog- milton of the fact that strength lies in union and while other, even greater, mergers are being urged. it is only natural that there should be a desire on the part of these two divisions of the church to get together. While set ting out to do greater work than ever before the Methodist churches are recognizing the need of unity among themselves.

possibly. done in the past. There are the conditions under which burials were made which must be considered, and there is the fact that there can be no viewing of the bodies to make sure that no mistake has been made which will discourage many from asking for the return. And yet where sentiment Is strong to have the bodies lie in their native soil there can be no re- fhsal if the family is willing to take the chance of the body being that of their loved one.
 It is thus quite evident. wdatever the number of bodies brought home, that careful considera1fon will be given to all phases of the matter. both in the matter of s,sking for the bodies and in legislati1g for their return.

 Hartford country has direct and
 large interest in the federal water power bill which the senate adopted
 by an overwhelming vote last week and which the house adopted last
 summer, with certain unessential diff ferences which, it is believed, will be easily disposed of in conference. This
 is the bill defining the policy of the
 government with reference to water power development on navigable
 streams and on all property owned For controlled by the government, and
 for it's determination the men and in
 terists behind the proposed construc-
 ton of a new dam across the Con- necticut river at Windsor Locks and
 the development of power now going to waste have. been patiently wait ing. There is going to waste at Wind sor Locks many thousands of horse power, which, transformed into cleo trieal energy and transmitted under high tension, would add materially to the importance of Hartford county as a manufacturing area. Electricity pro duced by water power is cheaper than ! coal, and of course takes the place oi coal or oil that would have to be consumed to produce an equal amount i of power. This is no small eonsidera- ton in these days of high fuel costs
