HAIR NETS AGAIN.

THE VERY LATEST MODES OF DRESSING THE HAM.

-Some Valuable and Kntcriainlnjr Information a* to the Caro of the Hair, Together With Directions For Arranging It In the

Manner Ileal Salted to Individual Faces.

"Women should brush thoir hair thoroughly night and morning, as nothing will give such gloss and beauty to the hair as a vigorous use of the brushes," remarked an expert on the subject to the New York Recorder. "The English women are noted for their well groomed heads, and in all classes the English women clevoto time and attention to their tresses. A fair way to manage this, after parting the hair in the middle, is to giro 50 strokes to cach part of it. "What is the prevailing fashion? That is impossible to tell, as the American women are sensible and wear the hair to mit the style of tho face. As the fashion of the gowns is similar to that of our grandmothers' day, nothing is more bosoming to a fresh young face than the jlden style of having the hair parted in the ccnter, waved and drawn back toward the temples, showing a beautifnl brow. The back of the hair may either be worn loosely twisted at the nape of the neck or piled high on the top of the head in the Recamier style.

JAPANESE AND ENGLISH COIFFURES.

"The Dutch braids wound around and around the crown of the head are entirely abandoned. Flowers have also had their day, and ribbons are used sparingly. Joweled hairpins, diamond butterflies and bands aro much in vogue. "For foreheads that protrude a slight bung is very becoming, and the Napoleon, which consists of a single curl down the center of tho forehead, is very chic. "Tho puff at the crown of tho head, protruding liko the old tiino Psycho knot, is tho most trying stylo, but very fashionable. "From England comes tho news that waterfalls, confined by a heavy corded net, aro tho fad of tho hour. Women with black hair should havo it well brushed and plainly, oven soverely, arranged. To tho blond tresses alono are permitted curling and frizzing. "Tho popular curls at tho sido of the head and over tho ears givo a fullness to tho slender face. Heavy straight bangs aro considered bad form and lend a coarso expression to tho faco. "A natural wave in tho hair is most fetching, and often straight hair is waved most becomingly by artificial moans. Nothing, however, is so injurious to tho hair as tho hot iron, and this should always bo avoided.

FllKNCH AND AMERICAN CHICINONS.

"Short, stout people should wear the hair high on their heads, as it gives height and slightnoss to the figure. Tall, slight women should arrauge their hair loosely at the back of the neck. The shamrock waterfall has the hair arranged in the shape of three leaves. The figure 8 is a favorite style for a well shaped head. It consists of the hair in a coil and twisted to form a figure Sat the nape of the neck. "A coiffure for the evening shows the •progressive coiffure,' which consists of a ulass of hair arranged in soft coils, with the lower pari finished with a few curls. The front hair is waved loosely and a few flower leaves arranged in a crown effect Mothers can do much toward making ft child's hair beautiful. They should never cut a bang on a child, but allow it to go straight from the forehead. "The ends of the hair should bo singed every new moon. And the hair of very young children can be made to wave by rubbing It round and round the crown with the hand while damp."

A tetter Cw.

Cover each with plush of any color yon may fancy end Baetimn wS*h oik of the or a contra* tiuj: coW Oite th» two at their k»wier and finish with a «.ilk cord or use "odds and ends."* At the top put a large bow of ribbon and miispc nd the can* sear the writing desk. The ribbon a&dcord should harmotiixe in color with the plush.

A CINDERELLA CASE.

Not a Glass Case, but Dainty and Useful -1. For 'lilatly.

Women who wear shoes of ordinary size may be content to keep them in. ordinary shoe boxes and bags, but the New York Recorder has unearthed any number of Cinderellas whose dainty footwear deserves to be kept, if not in a glass case, at least in something very choice and pretty. Indeed a woman with a sensible, comfortable pair of fives

A SLIPPER RECEPTACLE.

may not object to having a slipper case like the following for her party slippers. As by far the larger number of women wear shoes approximating to the size last named, the dimensions here given must be modified to suit the fortunate few.

Take a pieco of butcher's linen 12 by 15 and fold it in the shape of an envelope. Featherstitch a hem all around with colored floss and ornament with some simple flower in outline. Tie with ribbons of the same color as the silk used in embroidering. The slippers may then be laid away in a drawer safe from the fear of ravages of dust and with no fear of soiling by rubbing. Wrap each first in tissue paper.

To go with this is a case for fine hosiery for evening wear. It is made not unlike a glove* or veil case of apiece of linen 10 by 20. This is large enough to hold several pairs. Embroider the outside with the same flower as that used on tho slipper case and lino it with a contrasting shade of soft silk, with a perfumed layer of wadding between. Place a puff of the silk all around between the linen and silk, cross it inside with strap3 of satin ribbon to hold the hose in place and tie with ribbon strings.

To Curo a Bunion.

Bathe tho affected part in hot water, to which a teaspoonful of salt, a tablespoonful of starch and a few drops of arnica havo been added, wipo dry with a soft linen towel and apply iodine with a camel's hair brush. Wear a loose shoe out of doors, and while in tho house a shoo which has tho leather covering the bunion entirely cut away. Bunions are caused by undue pressure. A good plan, if you havo to be out a great deal, is to have tho shoemaker cut a piece from your shoo where it presses upon tho bunion and replace it with an invisible patch.

Cleaning Windows.

To begin with, have the windows thoroughly dusted every day when the rest of tho room is done—window sills, ledges, sashes and all. The gas burned in the room gives off carbon, alias smuts, so of course in winter does the fire, and this, together with the dust, all lodges in tho window. Naturally this is especially tho case in winter—a time when window cleaningis particularly inconvenient. It stands to reason that if tho windows are thoroughly dusted regularly they will not require to be washed or cleaned nearly so frequently. When the cleaning is inevitable, have ready a muslin bag full of whiting and two wash leathers. Dust the glass thickly with tho wliiting, then rub it off thoroughly with a damp-^not wet—leathe:, and finally polish it well with a clean, dry one. This is a method pursued by workmen when cleaning the windows of a new house and gives a polish unknown to tho glass washed in tho ordinary way. Another excellent method for giving brilliancy to glass is to dampen a cloth with spirits of wine, rub the glass well with this and then polish ns before with a clean, dry leather.

Kgx Scallop*.

Boil eggs five minutes. When cold, shell and cut in bits. Mix these with a cupful of mashed potato and one of cooked rice, seasoning with molted butter, pepper and salt and a teaspoonful each of vinegar and Worcestershire sauce. Mix thoroughly, ant! place in scallop shells, sprinkle with bread crumbs and bits of butter and brown in the oven. Nice for tea or lunch.

Dressing Jacket.

How very simple the shape of a toilet or dressing jacket, yet by the addition of ribbon and lace it may be rendered smart and attractive. During spring or fall weather the coat may be of cream flannelette with frills of soft lace and pink or blue ribbon, or cream washing serge is useful and cozy and may be trimmed with the soft lace or with frills of flannel embroidery.

CHOICE Ui'1 A MATE.

AMERICAN WOMEN DIFFER FROM THEIR ENGLISH SISTERS.

In the Matter of Selecting a Husbamt the American Girl Kcjects a Jlsn For a Trivial Ilenson. While an Enc-lsh BI—J Ac. cepts tho Sniior. I

"You American girls are spoiled—i .UcJy spoiled,*'said an English tsntron. "ion frequently reject a young man' for no other reason than that he i* the first who has done you the honor to offer you his Land." "But 1 don't care for him." said the one addressed. ^1* "There is co reason \rby you shouldn*t care for bir.i, since he is eligible and with nothing about him to which any reasonable creature can make objection. B"t yoa Americans pick and choose and are entirely too particular. The trouble is that you are sure if you don't take one you can get another. The men make fools of you. 1 assure you an English eirl would be ashamed of such flippant and capricious behavior."

The conversation is quoted to illustrate the subject of this article—the status of English women in the home. A study of Engli. novtis will reveal tbat the roughness cf the course of true love is almost invnrir.i ly occasioned by ineligibility, the suit of a younger son, or the passion for the daughter of a gardener or a gamekeeper. That a girl should reject an ofTer merely because she did not care for the man is incomprehensible to the majority of English maids and matrons.

In spite cf the fact that the reign of queen mi^ht be supposed to restore the spirit of chivalry, an English woman is far from being qneen of the household in the sense that we should attach to the title.

She is, in fact, much nearer the rank of a favorite ELAre. From her earliest infancy she is imbued with the idea of the superior ity of her brothers. She is taught that they are masters by right of birth. Sbcs must wait upon them, be patient under their tyranny, love them passionately, with a devotion"and self sacrificc that asks for-no return unless they be graciously pleased to accord the same.

It is but fair to say, however, that, cn the other hand, the boys are taughtYu.it they the natural protectors of women. It is their duty to provide for them, to decide fathom in all the important affairs of life, to shield them from dangers that au American woman would thrust aside without thinking of calling for assistance. No English girl is ever considered capable of looking after herself.

The independence of the American girl is one of her characteristics which exercises a fascination over young Englishmen, for not all of them, be it said, marry us for money.

There arc many disinterested love matchcs arising from the fact that an Englishman flnds our American girl companionable. In some cases perhaps his courtship is actuated by feelings akin to bis love for the chase, for, whereas his own countrywomen would receivo him promptly and graciously and accept hi3 attentions and offer r.s high honors, he is not at all certain that his pursuit of a dowerless American will end in her capture.

In the one case it is like hunting pheasants driven to cover in the other, following wild game in an open prairie.

It is a fact that English women are very bitter in their denunciation of our capture of their young men. nobles and others. The columns of the London papers were at one time open to a discussion of the subject, and tho brutal frankness of some male correspondents in condemnation of English methods, whereby English girls proved less attractive than their American rivals in society, could not have been pleasant. reading to any but Americans.

The problem of the surplus female population in England is a serious one, and the steady diminution of marriage, in addition to the tendency of Englishmen to seek wives among the daughters of the Philistines, is a burden grievous to be borne by the fathers and mothers of large families oi girls.

With this prejuelice on that sido of tinwater is a growing dislike on this side that the Briton should carry off the number of Columbia's daughters which he does —an opposing condition which accentuates tho strength of the attraction between the American girl and tho Englishman.

It was proposed in a London women's periodical a few years ago that an association should be formed to induce widows to refrain from marrying a second time, as a matter of justice to their own sex.

It was broadly hinted that royalty had purposely set an example. Reference was not made to the queen except as an instance of undying loyalty to the memory of her husband, but to the young Duchess of Albany, who might reasonably be expected to have taken unto herself "another mate." "The great dread of an English mother/' Bays a New York woman who has lived years in England, "is lest her daughter should acquire the unpardonable reputation of 'being fast.' Little girls are taught to be shy and quiet. "I remember reading a most amusing ar tide, which was not intended to be funnyfar from it—in a girl's paper printed in London. It was a regular sermon on society manners, preached from the Scriptural text, 'Study to bo quiet.' "—New York Times.

A Home Cure For Stooping Shoulders. A family physician was recently appealed to by a mother whose own mother he had attended since her accession to the throne as a household queen for a remedy for stooping shoulders. "Would you advise a brace for Lily, doctor? She is getting so round shouldered something must be done," said the devoted mamma. "Give her a slap on the back two or three times aday, and shell soon straighten up," growled the old doctor, who was an exceedingly gruff but kind hearted man, who didn't believe in binding erring shoulders to a board unless there was some serious defect which would be likely to develop into a severe affliction.—Buffalo News.

A Historic Doll.

Polly Summers is the name ot a wooden doll that belongs to a lady in Massachusetts, and that ought to be very interesting to all little men and women, for Polly is over 100 years old. Polly'was bought in England in 1773 and was brought to this country in a ship which* lauded at Boston. Polly was put in the window of a .shop on

Cornhill and purchased for a little girl whose name was Polly Summer. The doll Polly was not Polly until then. She was named for her little mistress.

Few dolls live 100 years, but Polly was made of English oak, and so she is strong and sound to this day. She has had her cheeks newly painted and her dress fixed up of late, and people take her to what they call "colonial exhibitions," for Polly isn't just a doll any more—she is an antique and a curiosity.

Wives Should Be Always Winsome. We all know how some women after a year or two of married life get careless about their dress, They seem to think t-hut their fortune is made, and it isn't necessary to arrange the hair becomingly or put on a pretty house gown just for their husbands. This is all wr^ng, and it is an error that arises from laziness.

Men like to sec their wives look pretty just as much .as they did when they were sweethearts. Tako a woman's advice and if yofa can't have but one attractive gown let that one. bo the one to-wear indoors. Aim to have 'daintily arranged hair and a neat and simple costume for breakfast. Go in largely for laces. A man is'very fond of frills hits of4 white about "the neck' and wrists always appeal strongly to him. Have well fitting shoes or slippers as the case may be, and in fact aim to make yourself just' as winsome after the fish is landed as when you were not sure of him.—New York World.

For starching muslins, ginghams and calicoes dissolve apiece of alum the size of a hickory nut for every pint of starch. This will keep the colors bright for a long time.

Eskimo Children In tho Winter Time. When approaching winter drives all summer visitors—birds and ducks—southward, and the earth is covered with snow, the Eskimo boys and girls practice house building. With a couple of long knives and a wooden snow shovel they will work several days on a miniature house, which must be fashioned exactly as father and mother build their snowhouses, with its long entrance passage, with room for stbrage on one side of it, on the other a cookroom with snow fireplaces and chimney, in Which a real fire is built at the far end of the passage a small hole, through which one can just creep on hands and knees into the living room, with its bench of snow across the end covered with moss gathered from the tundra for a bed, and a sheet of thin ice set in the end of the roof for a Vindow. An Eskimo lamp completes their happiness. With the thermometer 30 degrees or 40 degrees below zerd they still manage to have a good time, for they are well protected from the cold by their fur clothing.—Forest and Stream.
