Straot Dreu ot 'Brown Tarfgt i ., Attractive Spring Neck Ruffs and "Boas By Dorothy Dale, i ; '. ' -f TO KANT women, and especially to . those past their flrat youth,- a , boa or neck ruff la so becoming that even after winter furs are laid aside boas of tulle, lace, chif fon or feathers, auch as oetrlch or mar lbou, are adopted. Many of theae scarfs can easily be made at home, tha two inodela Illustrated being especially prao tlcal, but acarf a- of maribou and oetrlch feathers are also" very fashionable, and can be had In the abopa at quite mod era ta "prices.- : 1 " r . There are. too, aoma very attractive scarfs of soft lac laid over sheer allk, with a veiling of chiffon, and bordered by a narrow line of ostrich or maribou or by a niching of little frills of lace or silk. For the fluffy neck ruches plain tulle and the ring-dot net ar favorite ma terlala, and. although fancy prices are asked for these ruches -In the fashion able millinery ahopa and large stores, they can be made at home at a fraction of tbe expenee. Such a ruche la aketched In the drawing, tha model pictured ahow. Ing a deep plaited ruff of brown tulle mounted on a atlffened allk band, and finished by allk Joopa and bowa in front Neck Ruira lor Bprlntj.. Another very pretty model waa made of black ring-dot net, four deep pllssc frllla being used, with another of tulle next the face. - A cluster of black allk popples with yellow centers waa tucked among the tulle Jn the front, which was finished with many ribbon loops and enda of black velvet and net. Another very old ruff waa also mada of ring-dot net. each ruffle being bor dered by aatln ribbon. On the ribbon at tntervala were set little satin -covered buttons, encircled by frllla of the nar rowest Valenciennea edging. The little ahoulder capea are also vary much liked, the one shown In tha sketch being made, of transparent black liberty silk, finely plaited. The dgea of the doublecap were ftnlahed by narrow ruches, which also trimmed the "long ends that reached below tbe - waist. Theae niches were mad of sllk-gaus ribbon. ; ' y- Little ' capes of broadcloth, usually with a touch of black somewhere about them, are made up on the "Carrlck" lines, and are very smart and becoming for driving or for use in the country and at the seaside. One very pretty model made In the Carrlck style was of bright cherry broadcloth, each of the three cir cular capes being finished by a stitched band of the same. Tha trimming con alated of a ' email rounded collar of black, ahowlng scanty touches of gold braid, the lower points of the wrap also showing rounded tabs of black velvet How to Pack Household Belongings ' By Beatrice Carey, . a T thla aeaaon of tha year it may A, prove useful knowledge to many . housekeepere to know how to - properly pack household furni ture, etc. Very few women nn- deratand how to properly care for their houaehold goods when moving, and. as the services of professional packera would be apt to prove a heavy expenee, the following auggestions, if carefully roi lowed, win be or service. In moving from town house to coun try place or from on city to another. when goods go by freight, especial care should ba taken, and although It would. of course, be Impossible to crate or box very large, heavy pieces, such as bu reaus and sideboards, these may be wrapped In soft paper, tied around with heavy pieces of twine, although the more valuable pieces of furniture would be safer if orated. ' Old bedclothlng is also very uaeful for wrapping about tha finer pieoea of furniture. - la packing goods to be atored It Is the general practice to ua burlap for wrapping the furniture. This, however, la not to be recommended, aa tha bur lap, having a coarse mean, allows a great deal of dust and dirt to sift through, and In consequence the furni ture la found to be much soiled when unpacked. Instead of tha burlap It la better to use soft paper carefully tied about the articlaa. Never plaoe breakable plecea, such aa mirrors, ptcturea and ao on, in dcawera or chiffoniers, aa the moving men can not sea what la In the drawers, and ao will not be apt to take aa much care aa la necessary In moving glass. Large mirrors should be crated after protect ing the faoa and frame with soft tissue paper or cloth, and tha same method should be adopted for large picture, palntlnga, ate. . In crating ' auch artiolea tha frames must be faatened with cleata to the boards, ae that they will not only be stationary, but tha decorative edges of the gold frames will not touch the pro jecting box and be marred. email ptcturea should be covered with cheesecloth,' bound ; In excelsior and packed in boxes. Tine plecea of cut glass and expensive china ware need special .care, and cannot be too carefully packed. 'Each article ahould be lined Inside and out with tissue paper to pra-i vent scratches, then should be' . filled with excelsior snd a pad of It wound around the outside. Brown paper should In turn be used aa a wrapper, tied se curely in place with cord, and another layer of excelsior placed over the piece before It la put Into tha barrel will make It practically aafe from Injury. In putting china and glass in a bar rel the heaviest pieces should go in ths bottom. Of course, they - ar all to be placed in layers, with plenty of excelsior between. Barrels ar best to nse In packing auch breakable articles, aa they are more easily handled by the movers than aquara boxea. Table china of the ordinary sort need not be quite so carefully packed. The cups and vegetable dishes should be stuffed with excelstor and put In the center of the barrel, while the platea and aauoera and flat pieces should be bound with excel sior. Two or three plates, saucers or such flat pieces can be bound together, with padding between, ot course, . to economise apace. Curtains, carpets and ruga ahould be rolled, putting pada of paper between the . folda to keep the materials from creasing. They should then be tied up in burlap. To economise on space, pil lows, bedding and table linen may be put Into the drawers of the big piece of furniture, these drawers afterward, of course, being locked : or securely Dound in place. In moving tr short distance, from one part of the city to another, the packing need not be quite ao troublesome, as the heavy pieoea of furniture need not 'be crated and may be put Into the van without any packing beyond a cover of burlap. . .- . , ; ! Hints for Spring House Cleaning . By Beatrice Carey. ' V ERB Is an excellent recipe for H cleaning rugs, chenille, plush covered couchea and furniture. 11 eto.: Bhave two and one half bar of Ivory soap fine and boll until It la dissolved in one and on half quart of soft water. Add half a pound of borax. . Boll 10 minutes longer. . Steep three ounces of soap bark in one quart of water for half an hour and strain. Add on fourth pint of aqua ammonia, put Into on quart of cold water. Mix all wall together and add enough water to make a good all gallons. Soft water I preferred. Set aside to cool and cover to keep clean. When ready to uee, dust tha articles woll and apply with a good, large bruah, rubbing vigorously. Then wipe with a cloth until quite dry. For doing large ruga It la desirable to have two people working one to follow up with the dry cloth aa soon a a apace la rubbed. The recipe Bella for (6 cent and. Is the cheapest cleaner I have aver, bought The entire recipe can be made for about 10 cent. It will be auffldent for year. .. A pretty. Inexpensive, yet simple and sanitary method of treating old or un sightly kitchen walla la to, first, paper them in the usual manner; then, when thoroughly dry, apply a thin coating of whit varnish. Thla treatment renders the paper Impervious to moisture, pre serves the colors, and Is easily kept clean. 1 It Is equally good for laundry or nursery or any room much used, as paper thus treated will last muoh longer. i -. :, a If faded upholstery Is to be restored, the dust must first be well beaten out. Then With a hard brush apply a strong lather of Ivory soap and wash off with clear, water. The fabrlo ahould then be washed with alum water. Upon drying the luster will ba restored to the colors. For removing acratchea from furni ture pulverised pumice atone will do the work better - than anything alas. It ahould ba rubbed on the aurfaee with a aoft flannel rag, wet in crude or raw Unseed oil. Rub briskly until the acratchea dlaappear, and then apply Un seed oil alone until tbe aurfaoe ahlnea, Tha old-faahloned method of pouring a solution of lye down a drain that has become choked fall to. work In many cases. If, instead of th lye, a aolutlon 6f oopparaa la used, it will be found very much more satisfactory. To make the solution dissolve a pound of cop peraa in a gallon of boiling water. Use when cold. A feather brush Is better than a cloth; for dusting gilded picture frame. ' I Savory Supper Dishes - By Sara Cranford. POTATOES Stuffed With Bacon.
