MRS. WILLIAM J. BRYAN.
The Mistress of Falrview and n
Glimpse of Her Home Life.
Dorothy Dale In an Interview lias
4he following to say about Mrs. Brynu
aind her home: The mistress of Falr--vlew
was at homo when I arrived. So
-was Mr. Bryan. He came out after
:lhe sen-ant to greet mo with: "Mrs.
CBrynn decidedly objects to being Inter--vlcwed.
She has nothing-Important to
say." Pause. "However, a visit Is
fllu!erent. Oh. Mnry!" he called,
-"Mamma, Mary!" And I understood
rwby that voice holds a multitude.
Mrs. Bryan came. There was nn
.amused twinkle In her gray eyes as
:she held out a hand and prefaced by
saying that she didn't really need any
Introduction to the. people of her coun
try. She was by no means a debu
tante. That Is Mrs. Bryan's way. She nc-
ccpts everything graciously, serenely.
Her manner says that If she Is to go to
aiKS. W. J. DBYAN AND HER IIOME AT
LINCOLN, NED.
rthe Whlto House all well and good.
.And If she doesn't, why, all well and
3jood. Campaigning Is only one inter
esting phase of life, after all. But
wherever she goes and whatever sho
..docs sho will always be bigger than
the circumstance. Every detail of her
.homo life shows that.
For instance, a Nebraska hill knows
the sun In all his glory. Besides, It
Js treeless. But this did not disturb
Mrs. Bryan. She planned a house
-which, waiting for trees to grow,
'would be comfortable. Then she con
sidered the grounds. There were acres
"in them, rounding up from the road
way far below.
A lawn would look bare and stiff,
she decided. So alfalfa was sown.
And no one who has not seen the
' bushy green growth can appreciate
how it softens the vast expanse. The
alfalfa also stays green long after fall
. has -seared other grasses.
Then the porch It Is a masterpiece.
flTrom the outside It Is a curving
-white heat rcllector with Its panels of
glistening windows. But Inside you
.oiro introduced Into another world.
The house Is red brick. The porch
pillars are of red stone. And connecting
ihese Is n circular wall of windows,
shaded and arranged so that the sun Is
kept out and every morning breath of
-talr let In. Vines droop from the walls.
TVsrns and flowers surround the sup
porting pillars. And with the bamboo
furnishings and Indian rugs it looks
as inviting as a mouutaln grotto.
However, Its Invitation is deceptive,
for it's n sort of watchtowcr, where n
servant keeps guard and detains poli
ticians and autograph seekers and the
rrest of the dally pilgrimage to Falr
tIpw that has some pretest for over
tjsiepphig the camera line.
The rest of tho house is a gallery of
;art gems and curios. From Mr. Bry
fan's study und the dining room, built
'below ground for coolness, to tho gar
rot roof there are beautiful gleanings
.from tho Occident and orient.
The Bryau household Is lurgo.
SEverythlng is woll apportioned. Every
thing runs smoothly. If people aro
ready for meals when meals are ready,
very well. Aud if they aro not, why,
tho meals wait and no ouo fusses. Tho
.servants follow their mistress' lead.
To Prevent Fading,
An excellent laundress who has
jaerer been known to fade a summer
ifroek says sho has a special "fixative"
Sot every color.
Alum used In the rinsing water will
prevent green from fading. A handful
of salt thrown Into tho rinsing water
will set blue.
Ox gall is good to use for gray and
brown. Hay water made by pouring
boiling wnter over hay Is excellent (or
washing tan or brown Hnci.
A tnblespooiiful of block pepper
stirred into tli flrst suds In which
cottons are washed will prevent colors
from running.
Flvo cents' worth of sugar of lead
crystals dissolved In o pailful of water
.iinakes a solution which Axes tho tost
'P usStr r rsW&P 'i
f "
i ifoe& Witt
of pinks, blues and lavenders. Thfl
fabrics should remain In the sugar of
lead bath half an hour or so before
going to the suds.
These baths will not prevent a gar
ment from fading If it is hung in the
sun to dry. Delicate colors in fact,
any colors at all are safe If dried in
the house.
Vinegar Is useful In reviving colors.
Add one teaspoouful of common vine
gar to each quart of cold rinsing wa
ter. Thoroughly saturate tho article,
wring tightly and dry quickly.
If tho color has been taken out of
silks by fruit stains, ammonia will
usually restore it
To wash brown hollnnd dresses use
bran, but no wnshlng soda and no
soap unless the skirt Is very dirty.
Boll two handfuls of bran In one quart
of water and strain through muslin.
Put the bran on to boll again, as you
will require a second supply of bran
water for rinsing.
Cool the water by adding one quart
of cold water to it. Then wash the
skirt. You will be surprised to see
how the bran extracts the dirt. Rinse
flrst In bran water, then in plain wa
ter. Put tho article through a wringer
and Iron while dnmp on the wrong
side.
When Broiling Chicken.
To broil chicken so that it Is cooked
through, jet not burned, is an art few
cooks beem to possess. The reason is
usually that the fire is too hot and the
chicken too close to it.
Tho perfection of broiling requires
a clear bed of umIn and the broiler far
enough away lor its contents to cook
slowly. This latter requirement Is mot
by having several bricks on which the
broiler can be set to raise it above the
flame, Instead of allowing It to rest di
rectly on the surface of the range, as
Is tho usual way.
Should tho Are be too hot Insert an
other layer of bricks for a short time,
removing them later.
A medium sized pair of chickens re
quire twenty-five minutes to bo broil
ed In this way. At the eud put Into a
baking pan, covered with butter, pep
per and salt, until a nice gravy Is
drawn.
In putting the chicken on the broil
er turn the inside toward tho lire flrst
and later turn over on the back.
A Way to Pack.
A business womau who makes fre
quent trips abroad has evolved an ex
cellent Idea for keeping her gowns In
good condition. Her plan entails con
siderable work at flrst, as she makes
pasteboard packing boards nnd covers
them with a cheap percale. When
these cases nre slipped over the board
the ends are sewed up, and tapes to
fasten in tho gown securely are sewed
to the cover at equal distances on each
side aud on the cuds and tie in the
center. The garment is thus held se
cure, in luylug In the skirt all the
plaits, tucks and other fullness nre
smoothed In place as It would natu
rally hang. Each gown or skirt and
shirt waist has its pasteboard, that
has been cut just small enough to fit
lusldo tho trunk. With this arrange
ment a dress may be taken from tho
trunk without disarranging any of the
others
A Novel Salad.
Do you want to serve a salad that
Isn't commonplace? Make it of cher
ries, luscious pink and white oxhearts
served on delicate green lettuce hearts
covered with a highly seasoned French
dressing.
Stone tho cherries so as to crush
them as little as possible. They may
bo used alone, or the centers can bo
Ailed with pecans. Put them on the
ico until thoroughly chilled.
The Trench dressing is mixed in a
bowl which has been rubbed with n
clove or garlic and n small piece of
onion aud Is mnde hot with red pep
per. Allow tho cherries to stand In
It for nt least half an hour before
serving.
This salad Is as charming to the eye
as to the palate nnd may bo quickly
and easily prepared in an emergency.
Ico Cream Whims.
A block of Ice cream covered with a
meringue, set In the oven to color and
served Immediately, is an easy device
to combine heat and cold In one food.
Yet another whim Is to roll some rich
paste very thin, cut in squares, put a
spoonful of firm ico cream In the cen
ter nnd fold the moistened edges nnd
pinch so that no heat can get In. Set
quickly into a very hot oven which
will bake the paste before it melts
tho Ico. Servo Instantly. This liking
for eating n combination of tempera
ture Is further Indulged by serving hot
apple plo or baked Indian pudding
garnished with a spoonful of Ice
cream.
To Keep Them Flat.
Tho plaltlngo seen on many of tho
season's waists may be laundered easi
ly if tho edgo Is basted before seudlng
to the wnsh. This may seem n trouble,
but tho results after ironing mako it
worth while.
Another reason that the new plalt
Ings lie flatter than formerly Is that
thoy nro put In perfectly flat nfter
plaiting, allowing no fullness of gath
ers. Hold tho plaiting toward you
whllo basting, for, whilo not fulled, It
must not bo scant enough to draw.
A Neat Patch.
To mend the knees of little boys
trousers so they will look as well anil
wear as well as when new rip the
seams as far up as worn, cut away
tho worn part, take a piece of cloth
Uko tho garment, sew straight across
tho front, carefully matching goods;
press the seam well, then shapo by
tho pleco cut off, sew up the seams nnd
hem across the front. If the pressing
Is well done, one could not toll they
bad been mended.
POLITENESS PAYS.
Nothing to Lose by Cultivating Good
Manners,
nave you ever had a woman tell you
that she would not say "Please" and
"Thank you" to servants? They are
such short little words that nuy child
can utter them; but, truth to tell, chil
dren of the present day nre not taught
to use thorn when addressing servants.
A flttlo politeness goes n long way and
helps to lubricate the wheels of do
mestic affairs fully as much as oil
applied to machinery. There Is fre
quently as much friction In the one
case as in tho other. Then why not ap
ply tho same method? Politeness and
tact should go hand in hnnd. An or
der given with a smile nnd "Please"
will. In all probability, bo better car
ried out and more quickly executed
for the little word, nnd if a "Thank
you" Is added when the service Is fin
ished what harm can possibly be
done? There Is certainly nothing to
lose by cultivating good manners If
you have not them already. In fact,
the gain is on tho side of the well bred
woman who requites each little serv
ice with a "Thank you." "Good man
ners nre a greater factor In succesr
than mental ability," said a savant. It
Is undoubtedly n well acknowledged
fact that bewitching manners go far
to secure n person social success. The
Inference, naturally. Is that good man
ners nro nn inheritance tint the po
sessor was raised in a refined nnd en'
tivated atmosphere in other wort'
was "to the manner born." Beuitv i
a divine gift and wins favor readll
but beauty without good hrccdln -soon
falls to satisfy, and the person
Is apt to be looked upon as one who-i
birth was not all that It should lin
been. The old saying, "Beauty Is bu:
skin deep," should be a warning to the
fortunate possessor who 1 olios solo!,
on its charm. It fnd.-a nil too soon, a-i '
unless there nre other st tying quali
ties the disappointment will be great
when the Inevitable change take
place. Each one influences some one
else. Our manners and sayings are
Imitated more than wo nro aware. So
It behooves each person to be very
careful of word and act, for surely our
manners are reflected in those around
us.
WHY THEY LAUGHED.
A Chinese Accessory That Mcdo All
the Mischief.
A girl whoso long pongee coat h.is
been tho admiration of her friends all
this season Is seriously considering
never wearing It again. There Is no
question as to the style nnd art of the
wrap, n long, flowing affair with fasci
nating plaits and big sleeves that float
in the smnllcst summer breeze. Its
decoration is a triumph, for tho girl
bled herself to Chinatown and bought
embroideries to use as insets nnd pan
ols, one of tho most fascluntlug being
a black silk band not more than two
Inches wide. Its length Is about two
yards, and it is almost solidly covered
with embroidery in old blues. At each
end is a long black tassel. This band,
you see, has been put around tho low
neck, so that tho two ends fall free al
most to the bottom of the coat
So far so good, but one day while
wearing tho cloak she carried her hus
band's collars to a Chinese lnundry.
Being by no means a dull person. It
took her but a moment to see that all
laundry operations ceased ns soon as
she entered and that sho had become
nn object of unqualified Interest. Al
most simultaneously It dawned on her
why. It was her Chinese embroideries.
To the man waiting on her she said,
pointing to her coat trimmings:
"You recognize them?"
"Lcs, les," quoth he of the pigtail.
"Chinaman hold up trousers with that,"
and he pointed to the beautiful long
narrow black embroidered baud.
Her Telephone Hour.
A girl whose engagements nro many
and who Is therefore out a good deal
has established a telephone hour. In
this way her friends are always sure
of catching her on the wire, and she
comes In for many unexpected good
times that otherwise might be missed.
Until she did this it was almost im
possible to get her. Now if sho is not
nt home at the telephone time she calls
up tho house and tells the maid where
sho may be reached. Tho arrangement
works to a chnrm, sho says, nnd noth
ing would Induce her to go bnck to the
haphazard fashion of nny nnd no time.
HEALTH AND BEAUTY.
Weakly children are very liable to
have sties. Good diet and cod liver
oil or malt are the best remedies.
For dark circles under the eyes reg
ular living, simple diet, deep breath
ing and nutritious food aro unfailing
specifics.
A diet of white of egg, whipped to a
stiff froh and taken three times dnlly,
is a fine prescription for a thin contour
of face.
To reduce wide nostrils a lotion of
tannin nnd camphor carefully mixed
in equal proportions and faithfully ap
plied will Invariably yield good results
For sunken cheeks one ounce of lan
olin mixed with one-half ounce of
cocoa butter and rubbed Into the f'neo
with n rotary and upward motion la nn
accepted specific.
Small wisps of hair will stay In curl
much longer If Just before the hair is
curled with tho heated iron the locks
are dampened with bay rum. This
often proves very helpful on damp
days.
Learn to dance. Dancers are fine
walkers. Dance fifteen minutes every
day. It will mako you more limber In
the unused muscles. When you walk
try to relax a little. Most walkers
wulk ns If they were trying to walk a
crack. They walk stiffly.
