More than half q century now has
passed since the Viscount Adare and
James Ludovic Lindsay, who later be-
came, respectively, the Earl Of Dun
raven and the Earl Of Crawford, sat
in an upper room Of house in London
In company with the American medium,
Daniel Dunglas Home, and a certain
Capt. Wynne and so shared in one of
the strangest of purported happenings.
Home was man of mystery. Born
In Scotland, he had become an orphan
at an early age. An aunt adopted him
and brought him to America, settling
In a little Connecticut village not far
from Willimantic. AS he grew up.
however, he attracted mysterious raps
and knocks, which made her house so
uncomfortable that she drove him out,
asserting he had brought the devil
into the place.
PennilesS and friendleSs, young Home
set out on his own. But he never knew
want. In short time he was noted
person. In the years that followed he
gained world fame and rose to be the
intimate of the great, both here and
abroad.
He had mysterious powers-or, at
least, he seemed to have them. Wit

upside down without physical contact;
that he could tip q table on which had
been placed pencil, candles, tum-
bier and paper without disturbing
these objects: that he could lift him.
self without visible means of support
to the ceiling of a room, and perform
numerous other stunts which were COM
pletely inexplicable unless it be as
sumed that he employed some force be-
yond the reckoning of ordinary persons.
He never was caught in trickery. AS
his investigators included such men as
William Cullen Bryant, the poet; Prof.
David G. Wells of Harvard, Lord
Brougham, Sir David Brewster, Sir Bull
wer Lytton, Lord Crawford and even
Sir William Crookes, his reputation was
sustained. He rose so high socially
that he married the daughter OF O
noble Russian family. It was not long
after this event that he returned to
England and to the company of Lord
Dunraven, Lord Crawford and Capt.
Wynne.
The four men were sitting In con-
versation when Home suddenly got up
and walked into an adjoining room. A
window was heard to open. The next

Fat and Thin Hands.

A great many readers ask me most
difficult question-that Is, what to do
with hands that are too fat or too thin.
There is always the obvious answer !:
II you're too fat, reduce: If you are too
thin, put on weight But this is large
subject, and We generally talk about
these things on Tuesdays.
There are, however, one or two
things that you can do that will greatly
improve your hands. If they are too
thin, give them good scrubbing with
them thoroughly with the following 10
ton: Take an ounce of cocoa butter,
an ounce of lanolin, and one and a
half ounces of olive Oil. Put the in
gradients into O. small saucepan, warm
them until they just blend, stir gently
and pour into a clean jar. Keep STIR
ring until the mixture begins to con-
zeal. If you don't like the smell you
can add q couple Of drops of perfume
rust after you've poured it into the jar.
When the hands are dry, but still
Nsrn from their scrubbing, some Of
this mixture can be rubbed into them.
The rubbing should be thorough, but
not strenuous and should last about
I've minutes. It Is best to do 1t at bed
eznae and to pull pair Of white cotton
Stoves over the hands TO save the
2heets. The gloves absorb some of the
mixture, but the hands also have alb
acrbed some. This Is too heavy to use
ca the face, but it can be used two or
three times q week on the hands with

a unique carriage robe for use at al
SEASONS features q duck motif. Al
though 1t Is in applique, it is not of the
usual sort. That is, the. duck stands
out In relief and does not lie fiat. The
effect of a pretty, stuffed yellow duck
ID not hard to achieve.
A piece of cotton or wool waddine
- cut just a little smaller than the
gSe Of the actual duck pattern. Some
soft, loose wadding, huffed out, is added
TO the center of the little duck to make
the rounded appearance more con-
vincing.
Many sorts OF material can be en-
pioyed in the duck baby-carriage robe.
The recommendation Is for robe made
Of eiderdown flannel with a light
weight flannel used for the appliqued
pieces. If very dressy robe is de-
sired the material can be wash satin,
with wash satin In contrasting color,
used for the motifs.
A very attractive color scheme is as
follows: Use a cream white for the robe
itself down to the Zine where" the
"sky" and water" meet. Let the water
be q pale blue, have the ducks bright
yellow, and for the reeds or grasses
which stand up out Of the water, use a
grass green.

with little metal binding. The bind
ing and tacks may be removed in the
Autumn with q claw, although some
persons like to keep this screening in
two cellar windows all the year around,
as it make possible occasional ventila-
ton without chance Of letting in cats.
For Summer Use you may prefer to
have your cellar ventilated from win
dows that are out of the sunshine, but
for cool weather ventilation 1t is a good
plan to have the ventilating window in
the sunshine, so that the air may be
fairly warm as it enters the cellar.

Milady Beautiful
BY LOIS LEEDS.
Remodeling the Nose.

Are you satisfied with the shape Of
your nose? II you are. you have great
cause for thankfulness. Judging from
the dozens Of letters from readers who
want something done about the size OF
shape Of their noses, 1t seems that few
are pleased with this feature.
my complexion Il lovely" writes one
young lady, "and several times have
overheard acquaintanceS remark that ]
am good-looking, but some one who
hears It will be sure to say, She would
be il 1t wasn't for her nose.
As We have all been guilty OF thinking
this thing, either about some one elses
nose or perhaps about our own. we
know how to sympathiZe when this
young lady continues: "Oh, Miss Leeds,
Is there anything can do to change o
fat, stubby nose into q good-looking
one?"
And now let's see what can be done
about these noses which cause their
owners so much distress. If the nose is
actually so badly shaped that 1t amounts
to q deformity, there Is obviously no
home treatment which will help great
deal.
But believe that few of my readers
need to have their noses remodeled
completely. Not all Of us can afford to
have an operation to alter the shape OF
the nose. so let's see what else there is
to be done about it. In the first place,
there are many diseases which affect
the shape of the nose. Many mother
has seen her childs nose change from
a slender, classic one to a nose with
wide, coarse nostrils. Such damages are
caused by an obstruction in the nasal
passages. the throat or the sinuses.
Any difficulty in breathing should be
treated by physician at once, as such
defects will not only ruin the shape of
the nose but will undermine the most
vigorous constitution.
But If the trouble seems to be only a
badly shaped nose, without predispos-
| ing to disease, something can be done
at home to improve 1t. Since the end

Household Methods
BY BETSY CALLIsTER

The condition Of the cellar ought not
to be overlooked in warm weather. II
there is a good circulation OF air IN
your cellar, the ground floor OF your
house will be cooler. Your cellar may
he cool because 1t is dark and damp,
but this will not keep your ground floor
cool as will circulating fresh air In
your cellar.
To produce this circulation see that
two windows in your cellar on opposite
sides are left open, always during very
hot weather, and for q certain time
each day always while warm weather
lasts.
These windows should, of course, be
screened. You may not want to go to
the expense Of having screens made for
your cellar. The wire screening Is not
expensive. 1t may be bought in pieces
Of the size required, with o little for
trimming. Then it may be tackled
neatly to the outside of the cellar win

of this feature is composed of cartilage
and muscle, 1t can be nodded by mas
sage. There are also nose supports
which may be worn at night and which
are sometimes helpful in molding the
tip Of the nose along shapely lines.
To massage the nose place the first
and second fingers on the bridge and
gently knead the flesh with the thumb
of the same hand. There are many
whose noses are f1eshy, defect which
will give a coarse appearance to face
which might otherwise be quite attrac-
tive. To reduce a fleshy nose give it a
rotary pinching massage between thumb
and forefinger. This movement will also
help those whose noses have q ten
dency to spread at the tip.

The robe itself should be bound with
silk, the color of which may be that
Of the ducks or Of the grasses. 1t is
better not to have the border the same
color as the water, as it does not serve
as prettily contrasting frame to quite
the same extent.
Such a baby carriage robe as de-
scribed makes an exquisite gift for q
layette. The work is done quickly in
comparison to the result. Those to
whom neither knitting nor crocheting
are congenial may find this sort OF
work delight. The cost of such baby
carriage robe if bought already made
would be substantial, but If made at
home little expense is attached, al
though the best of materials be en-
ployed.
Any who are contemplating making
such robe will be interested to know
that the duck motif will be given in this
department next week Monday
printed in pattern form, so that it can
be used directly from the newspaper
There are also many other interesting
uses to which it can be put for little
tots. These also will be described.
