To Clean Brushes.

Hair brushes and other brushes NAV
be cleaned as follows: Dissolve two
tablespoonfulS of borax in a kettle of
boiling water and add to two quarts
of lukewarm water Add a little melt
ed soap. Beat the water up and down
with the brush, keeping the back dry If
1t Is the kind that water will injure.
Rinse thoroughly in warm water, then
in cold salt water 10 prevent the bristies
from getting soft Let the brush dry
in the open air with the handle upward.
Tooth brushes and nail brushes should
always be kept clean to avoid infection.
Soak for about two hours every week
in cold water, to which little borax,
dissolved in hot water, has been added.
Before washing ebonybacked hair
brushes 1t is good plan to rub the
wood thoroughly with vaseline. This
will prevent it turning white if little
ammonia is used in the water. When
the brush is dry. wipe of the vaseline
with a dry cloth, and the wood can
then be easily polished.
To clean combs use small brush
that has been well soaked and brush
the teeth of the comb up and down.
The bristles of the brush will get be-
tween the teeth, and when rinsed the
comb will be thoroughly clean.

Frances Use of Eggs.

Nowhere in the world are good, fresh
eggs appreciated more than in France.
An omelet or some other sort of egg
dish is considered an excellent substi-
tute for meat for dinner. First the
soup, then the eggs, some sort of po-
tato dish, a salad, followed by cheese
and fruit. That makes q very good
French dinner
Here is the way to make Eggs Mira
beau: Break four or five eggs in a
bowl and beat we'll Add little salt
! and pepper, a half pint of hot milk and
a bit of butter that has been melted
but not cooked. Mix while adding the
milk and continue beating until the
mixture is very smooth. Pour the mix
ture into buttered baking dishes, set
| them in a pan containing little water
and cook in moderate oven for about
Is minutes. Take the egg forms from
the cups, place on a hot platter and
pour over a good tomato sauce.
The French cook calls this "Oeufs a
| lItallienne"-thati is. Italian eggs. Cut
some round tarts from not too thin
slices of stale bread, from which crust
has been removed. Let soak a few min
utes in hot milk. Lift the bread rounds
| from the milk and place carefully on
! the bottom of q buttered baking dish.
| Sprinkle each with some grated cheese,
make a little depression in the center
Of each and break a fresh egg into each
depression. sprinkle again with grated
cheese and little finely chopped pars-
! ley Add bit of butter TO each and bake
| for is or 20 minutes in moderate oven
or until the eggs are set without being
| hard cooked.
! Try this way of making baked eggs:
Chop very fine a slice of cooked ham.
| two or three mushrooms and some fine
herbs-parsley. Butter well some bak-
| ing dishes and place some of the mix
| ture in the bottom of each dish. Break
an egg in each dish and place the
dishes in a pan containing a little water
and cook in moderate oven for about
! Is minutes. The eggs should be set
when ready to take from the oven. Slip
the contents of each egg on hot serv-
| ing plate and add tablespoon of well
seasoned bechamel or white sauce.
Shrimp and egg salad may be made
| in this way: Cook three or four hard
boiled eggs. Separate white and yolks
and pound the yolks in a mortar or
work smooth in a bowl. Have ready
some mayonnaiSe, and work the pounded
yolks into this. Cut the whites into
rounds. Drain some canned Shrimps
and look over carefully. Now mix the
shrimps with the mayonnaise, adding
the slices of egg whites, and serve on a
bed of lettuce leaves, passing plain
mayonnaise.

French modistes have clever ways OF
getting artistic effects with little labor.
They know when to use careful stitch
cry, and when fine work spoils the beau
ty that they pride themselves, justly, on
getting. They realize that close fine
stitches make severe, and even prinn. re-
suits, and must therefore be used with
discretion. as on tailored suitk. atc. They
also know that coarse, lopx stitches
must be put in deity so that the sew
ing is not careless, but, correctly done,
and artistic in its flexible effects.
In the making of textile roses, the
French excel. These may be exquisite
in shaded tones, or they may be in a
fiat color of the same fabric as the
fEpck or article on which the roses form
thinning The woman who would use
such roses on negligees, evening frocks,
or other garments, or who would enlist
their decorative beauty for Christmas
gifts, will find the French method
shall describe, will give the desired re-
suits with the least possible work.
For . rose of average size, cut a 21a
inch by seven inch strip from silk, geor-
gette, or other soft textile. Fold it
through the lengthwise center, and run
a gathering thread of not too fine
stitches through the goods near the raw
edges. This strip is. on the straight
of the goods, and when gathered and
coiled in a circle makes the center of the
flower.
Cut as many squares measuring two
inches on each side, as there are to be
petals. Nine is a good number. Fold
each square through the diagonal center.

honor, other factors make the assign
ment popular one with the soldiers
Principal among these Is that during
the Is days at the tomb they are free
from all other duties.
The guard is charged with seeing
that nothing is done that Will con-
Stitute disrespect for the unknown.
Before the guard was established, visi-
tors were In the habit of sitting on the
tomb, eating lunch there and scattering
papers about the grave. Attempts were
made even To chip of bits Of the
granite for souvenirs.
Since establishment of military
authority. all that has been corrected.
No one is permitted even TO touch the
tomb now, and those who make the
pilgrimage to Arlington pay their tribute
to the unknown in an atmosphere most
impressive.
Presence of military authority also
serves another purpose. One feels in
stinctively that he is on hallowed
ground. The impressive solemnity is
in accord with the whole idea OF honor
ing an unknown hero.
Visitors continue to come in great
numbers. The first busloads are there
as soon as the gates of Arlington are
opened at sunrise. and they come until
the cannon at Fort Myer booms at
sunset,
No count is kept Of the number Of
visitors. but officials believe that more
come to Arlington every year than to
any other point of historic interest in
the Capital.
