This trimming, as the pictures pbow. is very simple. It -n-ill require only a few Iiouts work to accomplish it. As the work is done chiefly on white felt hats, the ribbon chosen should be in the natural colors of the flowers and leaves. for instance, in the forget-me-rot designs work the flowers in bine, the leaves in green.

Use gold thread for the French knots in centre of each flower, and work the -dots inside of wreaths also in knots of sold. Work the stems with green silk, outline stitch. The spray desigu worked on side of bat only would look better if used on a colored felt, as the daisies ought to be done in white ribbon, slightly changing into pale-green. The centres of flowers are done in knots of gold. The forget-me-nots are blue, the leaves green, the stems are outlined in green' silk.

If preferable, the entire embroidery could be done in gradations of the same color, matching material of hat. Where it is possible, this work should be done before the goods is stretched on the hat. The design ought to be stamped on the goods: this should be stretched into a frame, and the design worked while in the frame. In default of this and the design stamped on the goods, the worker will have to make shift with the design drawn on a tissue-paper, which Is securely basted to the hat. The ribbon is drawn through the material as well as the tissue-paper, which is removed as soon as embroidery is finished.

An expert embroideress can achieve good results even in this way. but, of course, drawing the ribbon through the shape as well as material will prove diflieult. Use rococo ribbon and a chenille needle for working. Perforated patterns for designs, wreath, and spray No. 1457, 25 cents.

Every pair is a nightmare, but has now, merciiuny, been relegated to the realms of the past. All the same, pockets in gowns being impossibilities, and pockets on coats, though sometimes large and wonderful, not being usable for fear of spoiling the silhouette, bags of sorts must be employed to hold such trifles as womankind thinks she must carry about" with her, and sometimes these- are many. So, more varied than before, but hardly fewer, the handbag meets us on Its way through the world. And muffs! There we return to the real sack, to the true fashion plate of one hundred years ago-one hundred and ten, to be correct.

I possess one in which the silhouette is exactly the same as at present the 1'air dame has a bag shape, caught in Eiikles, a wonderful turban of sponge-bag checks! a tunic to match, and a stupendous muff, which at first sight appears to be a sort of short but enormous fur kilt! reminding one irresistibly of the Robinson Crusoe of our childhood, who. wore a high fur toque, fur anklets and wristlets and the same short fur kilt the rest being flesh-colored tights of a sort, as far as one could see, a puzzling sort of costume to the youthful mind. The 1802 fashion plate showed a muff, really, not a kilt, a huge muff into Avhich the short-sleeved arms were driven as far as they would go, just as limp and baggy a muff as those now carried, and shaggy as well as baggy, out-Robinson-ing Crusoed there! The veil of today, the thick black lace veil, drawn tightly over the face and hat, partakes of the nature, if of the skimpy order. I met two of my friends yesterday, who "had to make themselves known" to me, I having failed to penetrate the black lace masks worn by both. "Round flapping hat and visor mask of black," for passing "unsus- gecting sentinels," like the villain in the lab Ballads, occurred to my mind all the time I was apologizing, as is my wont when extra stupid, for being blind." right up to the minute in style.

Do not serve crab meat or lobster and have ice cream for dessert.

Do not have either the sour salads, with French dressing, and serve next to it a sweet or delicacy that really should be the accompaniment only of the very delicate foods we find at luncheons. You may be bure that the best chefs take these things into consideration and when serving dinners our hostesses often desire some special dish of which they are fond and forget to look Into the matter of the remainder of the viands, desserts or salads, to know whether they will mingle happily or not. It Is just ag important to select your food? for their har-U'ony as to pick your guests for their congeniality. PRESERVES "MRS. S.

Choice Tomato Preserves. Slice green tomatoes and cook in ginger tea. Drain through colander. Make syrup of one pound of eranulated sugar and a small teacup of boiling water cooked as for Icing; add the drained tomatoes and cook gently till clear and thick. A lemon sliced and cooked in tyrup may be added.

Quantity one and a half pounds tomatoes to one pound sugar. Preserved Bartlett Pears. Make syrup for preserving fruit. To make five quarts of syrup take seven pounds granulated sugar and six pints cold water put in pan on hot stove until thoroughly heated, but must not boil. Take ripe pears, fit to eat in their natural state.

Peel them carefully, keeping them In their original form, then split in halves and cut out tores. Fill glass Jars with pears and pour over syrup (previously made). Cover tightly and place Jars in saucepan with a little bay or straw between jars to keep them from touching; fill saucepan with cold water, completely covering jars. Let water boil for fifteen minntss. Preserved Quinces.

Pare and core the fruit and boil till very tender. Make a syrup of one pound of sugar for each pound of fruit and after removing all the stones boil the quinces in this syrap for half an hour. TO RID THE HOtJSE OF FLEAS "AXXIOtTS." To rid the house of fleas spray the rooms with the following solution: Two ouneea of oil of pennyroyal, two ounces of oil of sassafras and four ounces of alcohol. This recipe is not to be applied to flea bites, as it will sting worse than the fleas themselves. The fleas do not breed this time of year as a rule, and they will soon disappear, I am sure.

Oil of sassafras will do alone If you have trouble filling prescriptions. Salt sprinkled oTer the floor is said to be effective. COMPLEXION HIXTS M- The dirty appearance of your skin may be improved if you bave the face thorongrhlv steamed once and then afterward keep it cleajjsed by the use of hot water and soap every night.

I was ashamed to go out unless I wore a veil. I used every kind of salve people would tell me about but they failed to cure me. I saw in the paper about Cuticura Soap and Ointment the tragic spirit. "Was she? H'm! It's a pity she didn't live today. There would have been no necessity to sew her up in a sack then.

"We live in I looked out of the window to hide a smile. Three girls passed on the instant, and I watched them on their way down the street the back view of the moment revealed "in its purity!" The long coat tightened about the ankles, obscuring the shoulder-line as- well as sloping it unduly, the toque touching the shoulders at the back, finished with an odd string-like feather or explosion of osprey the wriggling walk, the "trussed" figure. So the poor thing was sewn up in a sack, indeed! I wonder why. For the second winter running I have to complain, not of Fashion with a capital for many of her novelties are simply charming, but of the aspect of the feminine sex as it takes its walks abroad en masse, the people one sees in the streets. I am fully aware Fashion does not take heed of the multitude, that no new vogue is ever brought in for the sake of the crowd for the sake of the majority of women, the endless young and pretty women of the lower middle classes, for the still more endless (if I may use the term!) not very young and not at all pretty ones.

Yet there is no evading them; wherever one goe3, in town or country, they are to be met with the multitude of silly sheep through a gap, the creatures who cheapen and vulgarize and exaggerate and never, never care a button for anything but to look exactly like each other, only more so. These people matter, because one has to sec them, and because one cannot go on feeling amused any more than one can go on feeling angry! There are times when the pretty ones annoy me most of all, for they are more like one another than the plain; seldom, if ever, have I seen pretty people 6o dreadfully all alike as at the present time. And a little while ago I reallv thought'the sheep-through-a-gap method was done with! It is not a wholesome general effect. Just as the fashions beloved of the multitude are not at, all American in their origin nowadays, so there has been borrowed from overseas" a pallor, a wicked clarkness of eye, a disposal of such hair as is allowed to be seen. It reminds one of the Bosphorus and its atmosphere, and an "Arabian Nights" feeling pervades the fancy balls of the winter; veiled ladies with curly slippers and a general bagginess, if a very skimpy bagginess, meet us at every turn.
