Hot Want Column Carpet Beaters, Plastico, Gas Ranges, Plates and Paints of all Colors I CARE FOR YOUR GLOVES. Little ThouKhtfnlness Will Keep Them Frenh a Long While. "Do you realize that a little thought- fulness will keep your gloves fresh just twice as long?" If you find a stain on your new glove clean it just as soon as you can. Do not let It dry In and become a permanent disfigurement. Dip a toothbrush in gasoline and rub the glove until Clean, drying afterward on a bath tow el or piece of flannel.

A whit, glove should never be worn more than once without cleaning. If it is cleaned promptly after each wearing it can be used indefinitely, as the spots do not become set. Gloves eau be saved in many little ways and their term of usefulness prolonged. The handle of a chatelaine bag will wear a glove white, so it should be carried on the wrist, and the tidy girl uses her handkerchief to save her gloves, particularly when boarding a car, carrying an umbrella or drinking a glass of soda water or chocolate at a drug store. In large cities dyers will clean gloves in twenty-four hours for 10 cents a pair, so there is no excuse for soiled gloves.

The tidy girl always washes her own silk and lace gloves in summer and takes particular pride in her washable white kids. These gloves are both practical and economical and may be worn for a considerable length of time with careful handling In, their laundering. They should be washed oil the hruids hi tepid water aud afterward riised in several clear tepid waters while still on the hand. Do not pass the soap through the hands, but always use the sudded water. A drop or two of ammonia in the second and last rinsing waters will pi-event the gloves from becoming yellow.

These washable gloves should be allowed to dry on the hands. If removed while only partly dry they will stretch out of shape. Boston Traveler. AN ARTISTIC TRIUMPH. Roe Bower Cartala of Cretonne For Boudoir Doorway.

Than a border was made of white cretonne stenciled with green water color to form a latticework like that often seen In a garden. From some odd pieces of the cretonne the flower design was carefully cut 8t and appliqued on the border like a running rose vine creeping through a lattice.

One's imagination can easily picture the ehariniug effect of such a curtain, with its deep colored roses tin grnen ami white lattice, pos-iiWy hung a of white vr.v'.v-o;-:v.--lor.ni.-il.
