wAsH YoUR BRusHEs o&rEN.

If you keep your hair brushes thor oughly clean at all times it tends to keep your hair clean all the longer.
 To give your brushes a proper cleaning soak them (bristles down) in very hot water with little soap dissolved in it. If you wash the brushes three times a week all that will be necessary will be to shake the brush up and down in the suds until all the dust is removed. If this does not remove the dirt. take your comb and run the end up and down through the grooves of the bristles until every speck of matted dust is dislodged
 Always put a few drops of household ammonia in the last rinsing water, and dry (bristles edown) on the radiator or in the sun, if you want your brush stiff.

Every mother of a little girl knows how very early baby girls begin to play at housekeeping. They love to wash clothes. iron. sweep, dust and mother" their dolls. They should be encouraged in these activities.

MnnIsH LINGERIE.


 The lure of lingerie is dangerous when one has to count ones pennies. Yet dainty underthings mark the woman of refinement more indeIibly than her out CT finery ever could.
 Women in business have made the dis covery for themselves that crepe de chine, wash satin and other siiken underthings are a time and money saver and in consequence these things have been lifted out of the luxury class and their intrinsic value appreciated
 Good taste warns always against over elaboration, s0 that the wise choice Is for the so-cailed tailored underthings with no intricate lace insertings and motifs to complicate the laundry prob lem. The choice of the majority is for fresh color, for the white things have a way of turning yellowish, and while yell low is a popular color, one does not want to attain it through wear and tear.
 The use of novelty fabrics is another detail which adds greatly to the charm 1 of present-day lingerie. A three-piece 1 rousseau set was made of white crepe with two-inch stripe of white satin and trimmde with medaHions of point Venise and two-toned ribbon adding the neces- sary touch of blue supposed to be nee essary to the brides happiness. l Two-toned ribbon in the usual combi- l nationsHorchid- and yellow, pink and blue, and yellow and pink-are used a1- most to the exclusion of all other colors, l While bebe Irish lace may not be said l to- be as popular as ilet, point Venise
 and Valencierres es, it is used for some | lovely pieces.

WASHINGTON, July 6.-Although agree

ing to dispose OF differences between the
two bodies, the Senate to-day refused to

the measure back to the House with q
request for further conferences.
