The decorative possibilities of candlesticks and lamps are widely recognised, and there is a xrnt deal of novelty in the various deoigus. They are admittedly more for ornament than use and the latebt candlesticks have discarded any pretence to utility. Tht holder and the candle are both made of rIsh and the hollow inside the caudle is filled with strands of silk of mauy colors, ingeniously packed to form intricate designs.

The strands are drawn out of the tip of the candle to form a wick. Haudkcrchiefs are a wild, if unimaginative, standby wheji the Christmas present problem grows too acute, Nowadays they do not always appear in the conventional boxes, but form the skirt of a dainty little doll. The latest confections come in little round boxes which usually contain jutst three handkerchiefs. Each one is folded in the shape of a rose and is an exquisitely shaded piece of crepe de Chine in bois dc rose or some other popular color. The corners are delicately painted with a gold tracery.

Cecoanut lee. Cocoanut ice is made almost as simply as that peculiar, sticky brand of toffee the children love to make on wet days. The necessary ingredients are 1 cup of sugar, cup of desiccated cocoanut, cup of milk aud vanilla essence. Boil the sugar in the milk for seven minutes, putting a few grains of cream of tartar in tho mixture to prevent granulation of the sugar. Add the desiccated cocoanut and boil up for three minutes.

Beat the mixture until it is cool, adding vanilla to taste. Tour into a buttered dish. A few drops of cochineal will make the ice an attractive pink color. This sweet is one of the most effective bribes than can pos sibly be offered to little boys and girls. Two Simple Edgings.

A dainty tatted edging that is very useful for handkerchiefs, lingerie or table mats is the simple ouc illustrated. Hake a small hem on the wrong side of the material, attach the shuttle thread and a spare thread together, aud fasten to the ma- terial by drawing through a loop with a crochet book and passing the shuttle through. On the, spare thread make .4 double stitches, 1 picot, 3 double stitches, 1 picot, 3 double stitches, 1 picot, 4 double stitches, attach to the material with the crochet hook, and continue. The second edging makes an credent finish for table mats and runners and carried out in fine cotton, cither white or colored, for handkerchiefs. In silk it forms a simple and effective border for crepe dc Chine lingerie.

To work it turn the edgo of the material down twice on the right side, and do double crochet stitches over the hem as evenly and closely together as possible. At regular inter vale make a picot by working three chain and sup-stitch into the first. An Insect Trap. An efficient mosquito or fly trap mny be made with the aid of a jam jar, a little wire and a piece, of two wire rings, one a trifle larger, than the top of the' jar, and the other only about one-third of the diameter of this. Next make a coniclc net, of the gauze, of such a hizc that the two rings may form the frames of tho two open extremities.

Sew tho rings firmly to the net. Now nour a little strong syrup, made by dissolving sugar in water, into the bottom of the jar. Fit the larger ring over the neck of tho jar, so that the net is suspended within, and the trap is ready for use. By placing this trap where the insects arc troublesome, scores will often be captured in a Bingle day. To Remove Threads.

After a garment has been ripped up it is a tedious task to pick the threads from tho scams. Take a piece of coarse cloth, such as a niece of towelling, damncn it and rub it over the scams. The threads will then come out readily. -Anniversary Wedding Uayi.

THIS THURSDAY GET THE LEADER. GET THE LEADER. THIS THURSDAY (0 PAGES-). FOR GUTS OR The gift season is fast approaching. any many women are wondering what they can make or buy in the form of little gifts that will please their friends.

It is also the bazaar season, and many of us are called on to to stork stalls. One of the newest ideas, and also a very Attractive une, takes the form of dusters. This may not semi very enitinp, but there are dusters and dusters, aud the gift variety arc charming and most attractive. They make a specially delight ful gift to the girl Mho looks after her own room herself, aud likes to keep her tools handy. 'i'iiey are feather dusters really, but arc "dressed up" in such a frivolous fashion that it is quite hard to realise how use ful they arc.

You must choose enough feathers to make a thick whisk about eight inches long, bound round tightly at its lower edge so that at the top the feathers spray out into a 'fan shape. The whisk is then fastened on to a twelve-inch wooden handle, which comes some way lip the centre of the feathers, so that they may -be -joined to it firmly. Wire or very firm string are most suitable for this purpose. There you have the use ful part of the duster, and now you come to the trimming up. You -will need some, stiff silk material or corded ribbon, and some of this can be used to cover the handle, and the rest can bo made into a sheath for the feathers.

The piece of material should be nbout four inches wide, at the top it should be left plain, but at its lower edge it is gathered in closely and fastened to tho top of the handle. In this way the lower part of the whisk is protected by a fan-shaped sheath, which only leaves about three inches of the feathers un covered at the top. The edges of this sheath may bo finished with a narrow flower trimming, and at the end of the handle a loop of ribbon for hanging purposes should be shown. Shoe trees always make a useful pre sent. Instead of covering them- all with ailk ribbon, bind eoine with raffia button holing.

The ends, of course, should be painted with gold paint. TACT IN THE NURSERY. Recently a mother was pouring into -i friend's car a tale of' distress about her little boy's flat chest and generally in significant appearance. Presently the child rimc in from school, running ex citedly to show his new "jography" book with colored pictures. "Oh.

yes, dear, but don't start with it now; go and wash yonr hands and get tidy." The child's enthusiastic little face fell, hie flat little chest seemed Hatter than ever, and he resignedly put away the book and left the room. His uuuy little body will have little chance to improve until his mother learns to express her affection more posi tively in the form of active and ready sympathy, not merely negatively in the form of anxiety. The glow of cnthusi-atm which was swelling the child's heart, literally as well as metaphorically, was quenched by the chilly reception. The expanded chest which accompanied the movement of enthusiasm collapsed at once like a pricked bubble. It is only now that parents are begin ning to realise the unbearable arrogance of the dictum that "children should be seen find not heard." The childish per aonality should be given at least rea sonable opportunity to express itself, and tactful direction given.

An eminent psychologist has said that if a young child is slighted, if one does not hsteu patient ly to his ideas, wishes aud confessions, it is possible that a distaste for life and hatred of humanity will develop in later years. Many children evince on undesirable ten dency towards untruthfulness. This is almost invariably due to fear, which is one of the dominant influences in the child's life fear of the dark and the unknown, but, above all, fear of those Olym pian beings, the grown-ups, who are the ultimate arbiters of his fate. He fears their displeasure above all things, and will lie to avoid incurring it. This fear and its consequences can often be eradi cated by tactful, qtiict explanation of why.

such and such a thing must not be done, whereas righteous anger only intensifies it. i Tact will often avert the tears that so frequently flow in the nursery. When' small knees and hands aro hurt in play, a word of judicious praise will do as much 1o allay the pain of injury or all mother's ointment and bandages. When small brother quarrels with a smaller, sister over tho disputed possession of a coveted tdy, a discreet appeal to his budding manliness will often restore peace. When children arrive at what is knowt ni the awkward age, considerate tact is more than ever necessary.

Their self-consciousness should novel be increased by constantly drawing attention to their faults, which nro after all Inevitable at this stage of development. All parents are wise who givo their children encouragement rather than criticism, and sympathy rather than reproof. Care of Scrubbing Brushes. Always rinse scrubbing brushes after use, and turn them on their sides. If the brUtles are always wet the brushes will not wear so well, and they will never do good work, for the brittle get to sodden with water that they bend far too much in use.

It would indeed be strauge if no one cared for dainty guest towels. They are now being made with lace sud embroidery. beautiful enough to grace the most fas tidious tray cloths. As the Uinstmas season approaches, and we have to think of gifts that are both dainty aud acceptable, we can well count on making some guest towels for our friends. L'ae only the best quality huckaback linen for guest towels, and find a dainty transfer design which can be worked in pastel tints, in French knots, aided by satin, aud stem stitching.

The gooseberry season has begun, and housekeepers will welcome them as change from the stereotyped apples and pears which figure bo largely, on menus nt nrcsent. Gooseberries are delicious com bined with cherries, or, better still, with plums. Try a plum and gooseberry pie, you will like it. Souffles, Bponges, tarts, all take on a new meaning when made with gooseberries. Here are a few good, tried recipes from a reliable source, which the housewifo will need for the forthcoming season: Bottled Gooseberries: They are usually bottled in water, as they are invariably used as a tart fruit for cooking purposes.

Some gooseberries after sterilisation ip- pcar to be covered with small bubbles. which are in many cases mistaken for iir bubbles. These are not nir bubbles, how ever, but are caused by the long sterilisation drawing a kind of oil from the skins. These bubbles ore very prevalent wheu bottling some kinds of plums. After beiuu stored for a few days the bubbles will gradually disappear, tho liquid iu the bottles absorbing them.

Any kind of goose berry may bo bottled satisfactorily, but for the best appearance hard green fruit should be selected. Store in a dark cool place. Spiced Currants and Gooseberries. 7 lb, fruit, 1 pint vinegar, 5 lb. sugar, 3 tabic-spoonfuls cinnamon, 2 tablespoon fuls cloves.

cover with fresh cold water and allow the jar to stand for minutes. Drain off the water, and again fill to overflowinc with fresh cold water and seal, using sterilised rubbers and lids. Gooseberries canned in this way are used for pies. Details of Etiquette. It is correct merely to bow when intro duced to someone formally, but in the caso of someone of whom you have heard a great deal it is much more friendly to shako bands, especially if it is likely that you will meet her frequently in the future.

There are no hard and fast rules about such details, but it is always correct to show a readiness to be friendly. A married lady returning a married tody's call leaves one of her own and two of her husband's cards. One of the husband's cards is for the hdy of the house, as lie is unable to call on her personally with his wife; the other is for her husband. It is not correct to leave the husband's cards when calling on an 1 unmarried lady or a widow. I the stiti-h.
