WOMEN IN CIVIC AFFAIRS.
A wovement now under way in Eng-
land, to make women eligible to serve
in the London County Council and the
twenty-eight borough councils in the
metropolis, is said to be headed by the
Countess of Aberdeen.
DON'T WEAR MOURNING.
To all of womankind white is al
most universally becoming. Children
should never wear mourning, and girls
and young women if they wear it
should do so for only a short time. I
do not approve of the conventional
mourning dress for any one. If one
must wear it, however, | beg the dis.
carding of the hideous crape veil. It
is heathenish. The world is a sad
enough place without women walking
around in crape vells.—~Woman's
Home Companion.
CHARMING COLOR SCHmuwmE,

crown is made of that soft chiffon-
like straw with satiny strands inter-
mingled. It is an exquisite shade of

personal property; not be required to

proper protection from the storm.
When one has found it necessary to
borrow an umbrella one should at
once return it to the owner.
Many persons are extremely fond of
having handsome handles for their
umbrellas and this very pleasant fad
may be carried out without very great
expense, Handsome handles may be
purchased separate from the umbrél
las and may be adjusted without
trouble, providing care is taken when
selecting the handle to secure those
of a similar make to the umbrella. In
some umbrellas the screw is fastened
to the stick; in others the stick has

select an umbrella from which the

NOVELTIES FOR THE MarR.
All the spring novelties for the hair
are here and chief among them are
jeweled topped tucking combs from
the ends of which fall a shower of bril-
liants. or stiffly upstands a diamond

of cut jet and brilliant have come over
from Paris with dog

ally sold as a set and sometimes a
set includes also a single bracelet for
the upper arm made of broad plates
of shining jet linked by a row of flash-
ing paste jewels.
Another most coguettish halr orna
ment for the evening consists of three
fine gilt chains, threaded at short in-
tervals with pretty real formed pearls,
The ends of the chains are fastened to
the tops of two long gilt hair pins that
are caught deep into the coils and
pinned low on the back of the head.
The pear! strung chains are drawn like
a fairy net over the coils and display
themselves and the hair beneath to
marked advantage. Washington Star.

THE CARE OF UMBRELLAS.
A handsome umbrella is well worth
taking care of and to do this requires
a little thought and good judgment.
Many persons greatly admire the
closely-rolled umbrella and consider
the umbrella carried without a closely-
fitting cover is careless in apperaance
and shows a want of tidiness. This
is all very well as far as appearances
are concerned, but it is undoubtedly
very hard on the wearing qualities of
the umbrella. If you consider it ab.
solutely necessary to confine your um-
brella to a close-fitting cover when in
the street do, 1 beg of you, if yo have
any regard for the long lie of your
umbrella, remove the cover as soon
as you enter the house and do not

brella is ready to make its appearance
in the street again.
When an umbrella has been out In
a rain it should be placed to drain im-
mediately upon your return to the
house, and it should be drained in the
position in which one carries an um-
brella. To do this place the handle

HOLDERS FOR FANCY CANDLES.
Fancy candles, instead of being set
in the usual metal socket, are some of
them inserted in a crepe paper rose

of many changes of flowers to match
the popular fancy candles in carrying

TAKING OUT SPOTS AND STAINS.
To war successfully with spots and
sirinsg one neeas a simple armament
and a little knowledge
This is some part of the knowledge:
Fruit stains of every sort will do no
harm to things washable if they are
wet through with alcohol before going
the wash. Very big stains will
come out if they are first wet with cold
water and taen have a stream of boil
ing water poured through them for
two or t minutes. Stains upon
silk or stuff, or a fancy frock beyond
laundry possibilities, may be got rid of
thus: Fold a cheese cloth square
thickly and lay it smooth upon the
board. Over that stretch tae stained
stuff smoothly, right side down. £4
there is a lining, rip it 80 as to get at
under jut first brush not
only the stain, but the whole garment
thoroughly, as to remove all the
invisible dust and prevent the cleans
ing from leaving an ugly circle, worse
than tae spot itself. Pour a little al
cohol through the spot and dab the
place hard with a soft, clean rag.
whift the spot over a fresn place on the
.aeese cloth, and pour on more alcohol
using just enough to drench the spot
itself without spreading. Do this two
or three times then look on the right
side.
An acid stain has rst likely taken
oft the color. Most times it may be
brought back by sponging the right
side very delicately with ammonia spir
it. But it is well to try the ammonia
firat on a scrap of the stuff, as it may
change the unspotted surface, and thus
do more harm than good. Greens in
wash stuff may be renewed with weak
alum wafer, but here, as with the am.
monia, try {t first upon a scrap.— Wash-

To clean ivory which has gotten of

rock alum in rain water; boil this
and keep the ivory in the boiling solu
tion for about an hour, taking it out
from time to time and cleaning it with
a soft brush. Then let it dry in a damp
linen rag, when it will be found
thoroughly cleaned, Ivory is often
bleached by the simple process of
dampening it and then exposing it to
the rays of the sun, a process which
must be frequently repeated

Rice Salad—A simple luncheon salad
common in a family where economy

little mayonnaise and served on a bed
of watercress, lettuce nearts or curly

sprinkled a few chopped olives, slices

Spinach on Toast-—-8pinach on toast
should be oftener served than it is.
Boil half a peck of spinach in salted
water until tender, drain and chop
very fine. Put one taolespoonful of
butter in a saucepan wih one even
tablespoonful of flour; mix and add
one cupful of milk; stir till it boils

toast.

Grate the apples on top of this, filling

Trials of a Man Who Sent Dispatch

In South China one of the welrdest
objects that can meet the eye is the
one row of rotting telegraph poles
that runs from Canton north, through
paddy fields, across swamps, over
mountains, on which are two wires.

gentry gratify their desire for sleep.
This encumbrance more than half

The office can boast of several
clocks—perhaps to insure that at least
of them shall going-—which
keep different hours. Gambling books
