Gold ond silver make but little appeal to the ultra fash lonohle woman. There are many rea sons for this pnsslon for platinum. Its lightness. Its adaptability to designs of eniulslte delicacy, wonderful effects like silvered frost In a windowpane, and the fact that it is a better back ground for precious stones than either gold or silver have nil contributed to Its extraordinary popularity. Jewels nowadays do nut weigh H quarter of what they used to do, but they cost a great deal more. Renewing Umbrellas. Shabby umbrellas may be much Im proved In nppnjirnncp by being sponged with tea.

V ' - If r, THE FAMILY WASH MADE SCIENTIFIC Every Housewife Should Know That the Health of Her Family Depends to a Large Extent Upon Proper Laundry Work. E VERT housewife knowa that the health of her family de pends to a very large extent upon the proper drying of the weekly laundry. Not only will gray and dingy looking sheets and clothes result from Improper airing, but more than one bad cold has been traced to contact with garments tbut have not been thoroughly dried. Therefore for the sake of health aa well aa the appearance of the weekly wash every woman who runs a bouse should understand tboroughl the beat way in which to dry clothes. Perhaps stockings suffer more than anything else at the banda of tlfe un scientific laundry. Unless due warn ing la given there seema to be a nat ural Instinct that makes the laun Iress hang up stockings with a peg at the toe. The mischief only becomes apparent when the hosiery Is In the bands of the mender. It may be easi ly proved hy any one that a small bole In the te Is turned Into a Inrgcr one by the p rex lire of the peg. that a thin place Is turned Into a hole through the same means, and therefore It may be argued Hint even new hosiery Is sim ilarly weakened, although the damage la not Immediately In evidence. Holes Made Larger. Shirts, vests and nightgowns Rhould be bung by the shoulders. Combina tions should be hung with about twelve Inches of each leg passed over the line. If the waist part hangs downward less space Is occupied, and, moreover, the garment dries more quickly, as there Is less chance of the heavy part being lifted up by the wind and en tangled, with the line. Curtains and sheets require to be spread out straight upon a line, for if they dry awry tbey are very. difficult to Iron. Many housewives dry their curtains so that they do not need to be Ironed. When curtains of uniform sl7.e ore employed In the honse they have a frame of wood made the sauio size ss the curtains. Small pegs along encb of the four sides serve to keep the curtain tightly stretched, and when It Is dry It Is rendy for hanging nt the window. When not In use the frame Is taken apart at the four corners and Is stored without taking up much room. Yet another way of drying curtains so that they need not be Ironed Is to cover the carpet In a spare room with a sheet and sprrnd out the curtains with pins along the edges until tbey are thoroughly dry. No Absoluts Rule. No absolute rule rnn he given for the length of time required for drying clothes, since so much depends upon the weather. If the garments are to be perfectly smooth when they have been ironed or inaugled they must be fairly dump and. moreover, evenly dampened, which can only be Insured by allowing them to lie several hours after they are folded. In good drying weather the gar ments dry so quickly that they are too dry when they are brought In from the drying ground and ueed to be sprinkled with water. Water as hot as can be borne should he used, for when rolled up after I he sprlukllng the steam from the hot wnter makes the dampness more equal than when cold water is used. Wheu the weather Is bad for drying It Is not necessary thoroughly to dry calico and linen garments, hut discre tion must he used, and exierlence will soon tench how damp a garment can be when folded so ns to get the best results. CULINARY KINKS. T'msly Hints For the Clsvsr House wifo. ' In cooking beans and pens their fla vor will be much better If they are cooked In as little wuter as possible. To. use sour milk for grlddlecakea never add baking powder, but Instead an even teaspoonful of baking soda to each cup of milk. If yon rinse a plate with cold water before breaking tho eggs on It add to them a pinch of salt and then stand where there la a current of air and you will have no dllllculty In beating them to a froth. On taking enkes baked In a tin out of the oven stand the tin on a wet cloth for ten or fifteen minutes. The cakes can then be turned out without the old of a knife and will not atlck to the tin. as frequently happen. To test milk dip a well polished knit ting needle Into a pitcher of milk and quickly withdraw It In an upright posl. Hon If the milk hns only a small pro portion of water this will prevent even a drop of milk adhering to the needle. For Tirod Foot. Many persons who are compel led to he much UKn their feet suffer greatly with swollen, tender feet. Relief wlil be found In a hot foot hath containing a talileKHnful each of borax, spirits of ammonia and alcohol, a teaspoonful each of witch hnicl and camphor Keep tha feet In the water about ten minutes. In the morning rub talcum powder or some other good preparation on the feet and wear high shoes which have hrond ftolca and low heel. A Smooth Villain. "Before we were married." she com plained, "you alwaya engaged a cab when yon took me anywhere. Now yon think the street car la good enough for me." "No. my darling. I don't think the street car is good enough for you. It's because I'm so proud of yon. In a cab yon would be seen by nobody, while I can show you off to so many people by taking you In a street car." "You dear! Forgive me if I gave yon pain In saying what I did." Chicago Record-Herald. Exorcising Dissass, Very curious methods were em ployed by the ancient Babylonians to exorcise disease. The sucking pig and kid played an Important part In, toe remedies. The pig or kid was to be killed, cut up and placed upon the sick man. The heart of the pig. which bad been placed upon the sick man'a heart was to be held by him. and the pig's heart waa to be as hla heart, the blood as bis blood, the flesh as his flesh, and the pig waa to be In hla atead. The kid waa dealt with in the aama way, being placed upon the sick man. A Lark's Lofty Flight. Soma Bavarian officers experiment ing with a balloon 6.000 feet aloft no ticed a little black speck which seemed to accompany tbem and which, tbey thought, waa one of the cards tbey car ried for throwing out reports and that the dropping of the balloon drew it along, but on looking at the barometer they found that the balloon waa rising and not dropping. Suddenly, however, a loud chirping showed that It was a Inrk, which, fiytoig at this extraordinary height, had been frightened by the bal loon. German Soups. Soups furnish a curious instance In which Germany differs from other na tions in the preparation of food. Milk soups aweet und savory, chocolate soups, almond soup and wine soup, frothed lemon soup and beer soup are among the number, while soups made of apples, pears, strawberries, currants ond cherries are not uncommon. There are also a large number of flsb soups which bear a strong resemblance to the fish soups of the Russian kitchen. London Standard. The Dragon Fly's Eggs. Any one who has watched a dragon fly flitting about the surface of small. reedy ponds or near the shores of Inrge ones during the summer and ear ly fall months has noticed its frequent dipping of the extremity of Its long body In the water as it skims along. The dragon fly thus engaged Is always 1 the femule. and every flme she dips her body In the water she deposits an egg. The specific gravity of the egg Is such that It sinks to the bottom among 1 the weeds. Tho Bark of tho 8oquoias. California's giant trees, the sequoias, thousands of years old, have been pre served to this day because of their enormously thick bark. From time to time In the course of ages forest Ores hare swept through the big tree lands, destroying everything, yet only scorch ing for a couple of Inches' depth or so the almost fireproof bark. The flames, having carbonized that much of the bark, could not penetrate farther, for the carbonized portion formed nn ab solutely fireproof covering for the re mainder of the Interior bark. Spraying th Vinos. In some of the old musty record hooks there Is n story of a vineyard In France which was devastated oy grape rot. nil except one row next to the road. The owner, an observing man, sought for the reason why this row should have remnlned unharmed and discovered that there had been a con siderable deixislt of limestone dust from the road, which had acted as a preservative. That was before the microscope bad revenled secrets of fungous and bacterial life, but from It developed the whole practice, first of dusting vines and trees and later spraying them. American Agricultur ist Mads It Unanimoua, A woman's rights woman, claiming that women would muke better jurors than men, said: "For Instance, there's the story of the Gold Gulch murder. The jury re mained out thirty-four hours. Then It tiled back Into the courtroom, very stale and III humored. - "'Gentlemen, what la your verdlctT" said the Judge. "'Waal.' said the foreman, 'eleven on us Is for hnngtn', jedge. yer honor, hut the twelfth man sticks out for ac quittal, and then ain't no arguln' with him. He's a low down, no 'count rooster anyways, and so we've decid ed to mnke our verdict unanimous by hnucln'Vm both.' "-Rochester Herald. DISPOSITION. A cheerful, genial, serene spirit is (lie source of all thai is noble and good. Whatever is accomplished of the greatest and the noblest sort flows Irom such a sunshiny dispo sition.

CHIFFON BLOUSES IN HOVEL EFFECTS The Military Suggestion Latest Idea In Separate Waists Black Satin Sleeves Make Unusual a Model of Heavy Cluny Lace. CUSTOM cannot stale the in finite variety of the blouse, and this season the separate waist la more alluring than ever. One of the newest effects In blouses is the military suggestion that Is given to many models by means of frog trimmings arranged In straight lines. The blouse Illustrated la an In stance where thia effect la happily used. Lace waists are to be very popular tbla spring, particularly those of the heavy aort. For some time cluny, Irish point and bnigea have been neglected, and now they are to be revived, not In pure white, but In a deep ecru tint A blouse recently seen la a combination of Irish and cluny made In kimono fashion with the aleevea halfway down the arm In black satin. These sleeves do not reach much beyond the elbow, and the Introduction of the black satin near the skin gives a new touch to the lace blouse. A slim white throat looks well uncovered, and the new blouses i' !,' r. THI II IL TART BLOUSE. are made without collar bands, as have been most of the bodices the past win ter. But where the throat Is marked It la as well to cover it with transpar ent net. Chiffon in plain, printed and crape weaves of soft, rich coloring Is making a number of the smartest blouses of the season, and the combination of viv id toues with dark colorings gives a dash to these waists, which have been rather somber for some time past In stead of a waist to match our suit we are now confronted with many novel ties, any one of whkb would be suit able for wearing with nny costume. Kor instance, observe thecblffon waists suitable for donning with u blue suit. Plrst thee are the navy chiffons over a Bheer white lace or net lining, the blue chiffons over green or red chif fon, the Persian red chiffon made up with touches of blue embroidery and sections of blue chiffon, and the gold colored crape chiffon made over navy with matching collar, cuffs and revers. Equally suitable are the novelties In printed oriental colors on a dark blue ground. Corned Boof on Toast, To mnke this nice dish melt three and a half tiblespoonfula of butter and stir into It three tnblespoonfula of sifted Hour. When they are well blend ed mix gradually with one and a half cupfuls of stewed canned tomatoes which have been strained after cook ing and combined with a quarter of a teaspoonful of sodu. Place these In a saucepan on the Are and bring to the boiling point and add half a cupful of milk and half a teaspoonful of salt and again bring to a boll. Remove the crusts from slices of bread, toast it and then dip Into the sauce When soft place on a dish. To the sauce which remains after all the bread la dlped add chopMd corned beef and pour It over the toast. Then sprinkle with grated cheese and garnish with parsley. Corned beef has a nicer flavor If It la allowed to coo) In the tiqnor In which It la boiled. Shir rod Eggs. For eggs shirred with cheese take a teaspoonful each of flue breadcrumbs and grnted Parmesan cheese to each egg. a quarter of a teaspoonful of but ter and salt and pepper to taste. Melt half the butter and grease the cocottes. Then sprinkle some of the breadcrumbs and cheese In the dishes. Drop an egg Into each and sprinkle with the rest of the crumbs and cheese. Set the dishes In a pan of hot water and bake until the egg are set Serve hot. dressing with the remaining butter and a dash of aalt and pepper. 4 ' a.! ..Ill .11 M ,, il,,!..!,!,... ,1 Journal Suffering Humanity Finds thatrelief mustbefound for the ills which may come any day, else suffering is prolonged and thereisdangerthatgraver trouble will follow.
