Feminine Fads and Fancies a

ORXAMEVTS FOR HAIR. Little ornaments of ribbon or embroidery are Inexpensive If made at home, and a spare half hour devoted to planning dainty little additions to the coiffure will be amply repair later on, when the season cf dances commences or party attire has to be thought out. One of the simplest schemes is the ribbon twist. A yard of narrow shot gold or sliver gauze, or a broad piece of soft satin ribbon can be made to look charming: If threaded In and out of the hair after It is dressed, a gentle pull here and there making a bouffant effect, which has also the advantage of increasing the size of the coiffure. Greek filets have, however, hardly ever been more In evidence, and, elaborate though they may appear at first sight they are by no means difficult to evolve. Dired gold or silver tissue should form the basis of the ornament, the exact width and length of which should be determined by cutting out a dummy" filet of cardboard and trying it on when the hair is dressed. To embroider the tissue with paillettes all that is necessary Is to sew close rows of paillettes In serried lines to the tissue foundation,' either simple outlining being adopted or a lattice-work pattern carried out in the sequins and the centers punctuated with diamond dewdrops or large beads.

Any of these pieces or sets would make a most attractive wedding gift.

PRETTY OBXAMEXTS. The ornaments of braid, satin cord, etec, are legion. Never within memory has there been such a flood of similar trimmings and one can obtain them in any of the modish colors, though black is the primef avorite and is used upon all coros. Some of these garnitures are merely biiarre, but many are both handsome and practicable, and though

HATS OP FILET NET. Novelty hats that girls wear for theater or other evening affairs where hat3 are needed are made of printed filet net in different colors, but over a wire foundation. The edge is bound with narrow velvet and the, crown is trimmed with an immense scarf and large bow of Dresden ribbon. Such a hat can be made at home, as many have geen, and as the net Is wide and does not sell at a high price, the whole cost Is not beyond the average purse. ORIGIN OF VEGETABLES. In 1585 the potato was introduced into Europe by the Spaniards, who found it in Chill. At almost the same date "it was introduced into England by, the English, who had found it cultivated by the Indians in North America. The! sweet potato and. the artichoke are also American vegetables. Salsify is found growing wild over Greece, Italy and Algeria, Turnips and radishes came originally from central Europe. Cabbage, which is of remote origin, is believed to be a European vegetable. 'Asperagus found its origin in temperate western Asia. Egg plant came to us from India. The carrot grows wild throughout Europe, Asia Minor, Siberia, China, Abyssinia, northern Africa and the Canary Islands. The tomato comes from Ueru, the cucumber from India and the pumpkin from Guinea.

LADIES STRAIGHT TOP CORSET COVER. This is designed especially for flouncing, a ribbon being run through the scallops to fit it around the top. The sleeves are finished with embroldered edging and the waist with beading. Cut in 5 sizes, 32 to 40 bust measure. Size 35 requires 15-8 yds. of flouncing 16 inches wide.

the prices are often high, an old frock mibht be furnished into modishness or a simple frock made to have an air of elegance by the use of one of these ready-made garnitures as Inexpensively as in any other way. So much of the effect of these accessories depends upon the beauty of their color schemes, workmanship and designs that one can give but little idea of them. The tiny empire or dlrectolre bolero In one form or another is a favorite with the designers. Some of the garnitures designed for evening frocks are exquisitely embroidered lri crystal and gold or pearls and gold and are finished at the bottom by a fringe of similar beads which falls aver the scarf girdle of the clinging directolre frock.

TAKING PARIS COSTUME. A well-known matron noted for her exquisite gowns has just returned from Paris, bringing with her a collection of the most wonderful creations In this line. One of the number is a soft satinfinished crepe in smoky gray-plain, clinging empire or directolre skirt, short-waisted bodice with trimming of self-color velvet embroidered boldly In self color and dull gold, tucker and sleeves of gray net and guimpe of fine yellowish lace. A long gray velvet coat accompanies the frock and the model la of the directolre redlngote character, trimmed In, buttons and ornaments of gray satin and soft draped revers of the same satin. A note of color is given by a little directolre waistcoat of soft dull rose cloth embroidered in gray with glints of old gold. To wear with this is a big rose felt hat, low, wide sitting down well on the head, swathed In emokey gray velvet and trimmed with three gray ostrich feathers.

candy. When he has measured the height carefully tell him to walk backward about five yards, then shut one eye and walk forward and try to knock the candy off the fork with one blow of the forefinger. The probabilities are that he will make the attempt a dozen times before he is successful. When he Is successful he may eat the candy.

MOTH-EATON FIRS. I believe I should throw away the furs if they are badly moth-eaten. I should not even try to cut a neckpiece out of the good parts- of the boa, for by the time the fur comes out in handfuls the moths are too thick to bo exterminated. "If thine eye offend thee, p'uck it out," and throw away your furs on the same principle, before they spread the moths through the whole house.

DRINKING M

IT RELIABLE

OPEN WORK SILVER. Very handsome and useful table articles are now shown in the shops in the pierced silver designs. Romeklns, mustard pots, salt and peppers. Jelly dishes, bouillon cups, violet vases, fern dishes and even egg sets and tumbler tiles, are among the most popular in this attractive open-work silver. Sherbet cups in the deposit silver are very handsome, but too expensive for the moderate purse. Beautiful sherbet cups with plates are to be had in the English crystal glass, and there Is a choice between the white and tinted glass.

Employers Want Sober Men. Competition is too keen and life is too strenuous for an employer to keep men on his payroll whose nerves are unsteady and whose brains are not clear. Every line of business is beginning to close Its doors to drinking men. Drunkenness is a disease and like most diseases has its remedy. Orrine Is the reliable treatment and is sold under a positive guaranttee to effect a cure or your money will be refunded. Orrine Is in two forms: No. 1, which can be used without the patient's knowledge, in tea, coffee or food; and No. 2, for those who wish to be cured. The guarantee applies to both forms.

Manager John T. Conner of the Calumet theater, South Chicago, announces as his bill for next week a western drama under the rather unique title of "The Angel and the Ox" and that famous drama of southern life, entitled "At the Old Cross Roads." The former attraction will open its engagement of ofur days at the South Chicago playhouse at the matinee Sunday, Nov. 22, and the latter comes as a special Thanksgiving Day attraction, commencing its engagement of three days with a special matinee on Thanksgiving Day, Thursday, Nov. 26. "The Angel and the Ox" Is from the pen of John A. - Prestcn, and tells a very interesting story in four acts and seven scenes, each scene true to the slightest detail. The play is laid in and around the ranching country near the little town of Lawton, Okla. Mr. Preston, who spent three summers there, has carefully selected his characters from those who are only to be found in this district. They are real and not exaggerated, as in most plays. The humor Is clean and wholesome, strictly moral. in theme, and no sweeter or purer story was ever taught at mother's knee. It must be seen to be appreciated. The people in the cast, which is a large one, have been selected with great care, and each Is fitted for his or her role. "At the Old Cross Broads" is one ot those popular southern plays that apparently will live forever. The story Is well known to all followers of the drama and the play will be presented at South Chicago by a sueprb cast.
