arately there is a curtailment of ex
penditure In slips, also a reduction in
the amount of luggage a woman must
carry about when traveling. Two
mart hort silk slips for wear with
linen, serge or homespun arc enough.
It Is a good Idea to have some extra
flounces to button on to these slips on
occasion. A deep flounce of muslin and
Valenciennes lace might for example
be alternated with a less elnborate ruf
fie of silk.

Thanks to the dear little Siberian
squirrel, we shall find it easy to he
dressed In all gray, even In midwinter.
Of course, there has been gray fox to
match modish tints, but it was dyed
stuff. Not so the soft, smooth little
squirrel pelt. It Is just aa It grew on
the little fellow's back. You may have
It In anything from the splendid box
coat to the little shaped band that fin
ishes your gray suit.
And these suits! There never was
turn a bewi'derlng lot of grays the
whole gamut to choose from. Gun
metal Is tho darkest. Noxt conies Ox
ford; then ome all the clear Jasper
shades, silver and pearl. These are all
' pure grays, all black and white weaves
that is, with no color shade Intro
duced. And they may be had in vel
vet, broadcloth, rich, furry zlbellne,
Cheviot and other rich fabrics.
Poor little squirrel! We feel so bad
to appropriate your coat, but wo must
do it! Philadelphia Record,
Shoal aa Nerve Rtorere.
Eastern travelers say the reason
there are no nervous women in China
la because Jhey wear soft shoes. There
la no doubt that the hard-soled shoes
of the Western world are the cause
ot much netve-racklng and mental
and physical wear and tear.
After a hard day much relief can
be found In the slipping on ot a pair
of soft-soled shoes.
Tired feet and tired nerves will find
much comfort in a warm footbath,
with a handful of sea salt In It. Paddle
about in this till the water cools, dry
the feet carefully with a rough towel,
and don fresh stockings. If one could
take time in tho middle ot the day to
Change stockings for a fresh pair, it
would be easier to keep tho feet warm
and to ward oft rheumatism.
Tender feet may bo strengthened
. by bathing and then rubbing them
with methylated spirits before retiring
for the night, and another excellent
plan is to swathe them with a bondage
dipped In alum water.
To Poaarae Fine Ramie.
To have fine, flexible hands for piano
or any other purpoao soak them a few
minutes in warm soapsuds made from
Castile or any good oil soap, using
some oatmeal, cornmcal, bran or al
mond meal to soften the skin and
cleanse It from the grime ot house
keeping, gardening, golf, or doing
nothing In a soft coal atmosphere.
. Wash the hands next in tepid water,
using soap and a brush all over. Whilo
wet rub them with almond oil, and
work them for three minutes, opening
and shutting the hands, bending the
Angers back and forth and working
them rapidly one by one, without
snapping the Joints. Rub a little sweet
oil or toilet cerate into the skin when
dry, and draw on a pair of rather
v loose, clean kid gloves. The dread
fully soiled gloves women will think
good enough to sleep in are enough
in themselves to produce a settled
grime of the skin. Toilet gloves of
kid should be washed weekly in gaso
lcno and rinsed in clean gasolene. In
tne morning. If hands are sensitive to

. wash them the last thing at the toilet
with soap and warm water. Wipe dry
on a dry towel; rub with cerate, cold
cream or oil, which are desirable in
, the order named, and wipe off careful
ly. Lastly, keep the hands warm, even
If it is necessary to wear gloves with
the linger tips cut off, to write, sew or
work in. With a weak circulation, the
hands will be cold, blue and given to
cracks, which hold the dust, and al
ways look as if the owners washed
them only one a day. The smooth,
white lisle summer gloves now selling
off cheap are useful lor this purpose.
The best housekeeping wear is a snug
mitten, run p from the legs of olj
white cotton stockings. Of course a
clean pair every day Is Indispensable,
but they wash easily, and as house
work gloves must be wet more or less
cotton does not grow hard In drying,
like leather or kid gloves. New York

The fnmM1r I'nrterwaar.
More and more Is It a delight to ram
upon the domestic underwear and less
and less does the woman of real cine
And It a necessary to invest in Imported
lingerie. A buyer says that domestic
tollers are now doing work which com
pares favorably with that which tins
made famous the convents of the old
word, and especially of France. We
owe this to the Improved taste of the
American woman. Even these who
used to consider themselves nndShMr
children lavishly dressed because they
were Binothered In yard after yard ot
machine made embroidery and lace,
now demand better things. And they
may have them ready made without
paying the price asked for the Import
ed. To be sure some ot (he petticoats
show deep embroidered flounces. Hut
these flounces are not of the cheap
heavy 'embroidery with which counters
were heaped a few years ago, but rath
er are they of the deep Bheer material
such as our grandmothers and great
grandmothers delighted to embroider.
Furthermore, the embroidery haa quite
the delicate beauty ot the old pieces
which many of 119 treasure. And here
in these fine flounces we find the now
stupendous favorite, the grape. The
vine with its delicate veined leaves
flourishes as it may, the great clusters
hang as richly full as they now do In
many an arbor.
And there's a new kink to these
flounces as noted In a particularly
stunning lot Just opened In a t'rrat
store. Whether line embroidered, the
flounce be one deep one, or composed
of three (each fulled on to the. one
above). It falls over an under ruflo
edged with lace! You've no Idea how
rich this Is unless you havo seen It.
The lace, even though It does not show
to speak of, gives the sheer embroidery
an exquisite not to say sumptous look.
The effect Is as that of a plain dress
worn over the daintiest of under
things. These are among the moat
fetching dress petticoats.
On night gowns and the various
smaller pieces the fine points are
even more noticeable, because less
adornment Is required. One exqulslt
ly simple gown for Instance shows
fine tucks to the yoke depth. At the
neck and sleeves there are collar and
cuffs of embroidery, not an edge bent
Into shape, but artistic little bits
formed for the purchase. One would
never credit this exquisitely simple
gown to any save the placid nuns In
their convent quietude.
Another gown, with a simple Val.
edge at the wrists and square neck,
buows an equally admirable departure.
Instead of the Insertion of embroi
dery being mltered at tho corners the
nquore-shaped strip is embroidered in
the original piece. It's Just these little
things that mako these domestic
ploces bits ot true art instead of or
dinary underwear In wholesale quan
tities. Still other pieces show Inset bits
of finest embroidery. A gown, chcmlso
ir corset cover that of yore might
have had a big yoke or other top ar
rangement cut out of solid em
broidery now shows a fascinating la
sot with a delicate spray embroidered
thereon. Those Insets are In varia
tions ot the medallion shape. Phil

Most boys have an eld silver coin
of some kind which they are keeping
as a relic, .either for sentimental ren
sons or bei-atise they think it worth
more than It- face value. In some In-rtnni-ea
the date or the Inscription has
been worn awny and It Is Impossible
to read It, even with a strong glass.
The following method, originally prac
ticed at the mint to discover the gen
uine coins when silver was called in,
will c.inble anyone to read an oblit
erated Inscription: Make the poker red
hot In the fire and then place the sli
ver coin on It; the Inscription will be
plainly visible In a greenish hue,
which will fade as the coin cools.
What tha flati Said.
Five-year old Charlie developed a
great fondness for conundrums and
puzzles, anything that required serious
thought and discovery, and he dis
played a ntralllna. astuteness In think
ing out original r.nswers to well
known qiterles. lie was continually
astonishing his mother and his family
by the oddity and qunlntness of his re
marks. Especially was he fond of having
stories told him, and every night at
bed time the penance of going to bed
was compensated for by an original
story, a feat that sorely taxed the Im
agination of the mother. One night
the story was about a fishing expe
dition with imaginary accessories to
make it interesting. In the midst ot
the story the telephone bell rang, mak
ing a little Interruption. The story
was resumed at the point where tho
alluring bait was cast into the water
and two little fishes swam up to look
at It and concluded that it was worth
trying. One of them snapped at It and
found that It was different from what
he expected It to be.
"And what do you suppose he said to
the other fish who was looking at
Mm?"
"I know cried Charlie. "He said,
'line is busy, call again!"
Boya Who Swim for Work.
Most boys go In swimming for fun.
It doesn't make much difference to
some of them how clean the water is,
for' they don't go In to wanh, but to
dive, swim under water with their
eyes open, explore the bottom, even
it It is muddy, to find old cans, old
bottles, and once in a while a coin.
But In the East river there, are a
lot of boys who swim and work at tho
same time. And It Is not easy work
either.
A big log comes floating down tho
river. It has broken loose from one
of the piers. Some ferryboat has
crashed too hard Into its slip. Now
watch. As the log goes rolling, bowl
ing along, three or four boys Jump Into
the river and with quick strokes swim
out Into tho stream. They are exports.
One strikes an eddy, goes down a min
ute, and then comes up, spouting like
a porpoise. Now the foremost one haa
caught tho log, and now the others
have a grip on It.
The boy swimmers kick with all
their strength. By their united efforts
they swing the log out of the current,
and push It to land, where their father
and mother carry it oft to their tene
ment house home. In this way the
family gets enough wood to last them
through the long winter.
Many a life has been saved along the
river by strong men who began by
towing logs to tho shorn when they
were boys. New York Tribune.
How Ho Showed anil."
Well, Sir, what do you suppona my
Undo Bob callod me last week? Why
Just Sand nothing more, nothing less.
And that Is not tho worst ot It, or tho
beat of It; I don't know whit h yet.
Everybody In tho house calls me Sand,
and It has spread out into the streets
and over to the school. It's Sand here
and Sand there, and S'and yonder, till
you can't rest Papa and mamma
looked sort of pleased, as if It was
something nice; and if it is, why, I
don't mind. They say It means I've
got sand, grit not afraid, you know.
That's the best ot it. But there's Aunt
Mamye (be sure you spell it with a
yc); she teaches me etiquette, and she
says the name is horribly vulgar; and
Tom he's my brother, you know ho
says it's just short for sandy, and
that's the color ot my hair. It it's
that way, the name isn't so nice.
That's the worst-of It. You see, these
fathers and mothers can't always be
depended on for a straight tip about
their own boys. They'll softon things
and give taffy. But then, brothers
like Tom and aunts like Mamye can't
always be depended on, either. They're
liable to to the other way and show
you that things are blacker than you
thought.
But maybe I'd better tell the whole
story and let you see for yourself.
First, though, I want to say I waa
scared, whew! I shivered so that when
Tom heard about It tho next morning
he declared all my buttons bad been
shook loose. They hadn't, ot course;
tor they came loose playing ball the
day before, But Tom was closer right
than he knew. When I think it out
straight and square to myselt, as I
have to sometimes, I'm sure that Tom's
and Aunt Mamye's fun hits me closer
than papa's and mmma'a praise.
You tee, It was this way, Tapa and
Tom were off on business, to be gone
all night, and mamma was sick with
a headache. That left only me In the
house to look after things. It seemird
nice till 1 went tip stairs ,to bed; then
things grew awful dark and lonesome.
But I pulled the clothes tight up over
my line and tried not. to think. If
there's one thing In this world I'm
afraid of It's the. dark. You can't see
the things you know are creeping up
around yon.
Well, some time In the night came a
loud harking from Towser, Just like
somebody sioldlnR somebody else for
forgetting, and I knew In a flash what
It meant. I'd forgotten to, leave the
woodshed door open for him to go In.
Hut I slid lower down In the bed and
thought lo myself I wouldn't. thouRh
I knew all the time I would. I couldn't
go to sleep f 1 didn't. 80 after a while
I shut my tenth hard and crawled out,
pretty Reared and shaky, for It was
awful dark, and pot Into my clothes
the bent 1 ou!d. Then I felt my way
out Into the 1ml! nnd down to the back
door, for there, an plain as plain could
be, I heard somebody trying lo get
In. If It bad not been for mamma be
ing sick and papa and Tom being
away. I'd have scooted up them stairs
quicker than I ever camo down. Hut
that wouldn't 1I0 for the man of Ihe
house. No, sir, not If he died. But I
was too scared to think much, so I
just opened the door and yelled "Boo!"
loud as ever i could. And, well, sir,
you'd ought to see them fellows tumble
down tho steps for there were two
and across the yard and over the back
fence, dropping their tools and having
Towser rn'iore on their heels.
The next day papa nud Tom came
home, and Uncle Hob came over from
the store. And I'nrlo Bob said the
tenia were a burglar's kit, and papa
looked at me as he does when he's
pleased. Thnt'a all. N. Y. Tribune.

A boy yesterday stopped to watch
some children playing In the street
One of the boys covered his eyes In tho
old, familiar way, and the Boy of Yes
terday was' confident that he waa to
witness the good old-fashion game of
"I spy." But the subsequent develop
ments were so at variance with the
familiar rules that he was distinctly
piiEzled. So he sought counsel of his
nephew, Major (aged 11).
"Wh, that waa Run-a-Mlle," Major
answered. The Boy of Yesterday ex
plained that Run-a-M!!e waa foreign
to his experience, and drew from Ma
jor tho following:
In Run-a-Mlle the boys count out
and "It" hides his eyes. Ho Is then
touched by one boy, who Immediately
conceals himself with the others.
When "It" has counted 100 or so, he
starts out to find tho "toucher." Each
player, when discovered, steps from his
hiding place, hut offer no information
as to the whereabouts of the "toucher"
unless. Indeed, he be that same, in
which case the exciting race to home
occurs, and if "It" gets there first he
may set any task he pleases for tho
"toucher" to perform, even to the run
ning of a mile. But It Is safe to as
sume that this penalty Is seldom ex
acted or paid.
Now, that Is a far cry from hldo-nnd-scek;
so. too, Is willy-willy wolf.
In which "It" Is the "wolf" and re
verses tho usual method by hiding
himself. The others then try to find
him, and the successful boy sets up a
shout of "I spy!" The "wolf" cries
"Stand!" and the boy must not move
until he shouts "I spy willy-willy,
wolf!" At this the "wolf" makes af
ter him, and when the boy is caught
he becomes himself "a wolf," and must
help to capture still another, until all
aro "wolvos." An Interesting techni
cality ot this game is that, should the
boy cry "I Bpy willy-willy dog," or
"horse," or any other name except
"wolf," the "wolt" may not Btlr from
Its position.
Prisoner's base also survives, but In
two novel formB. ,
In one of these, Red Rover, "It"
stnndB In the middle of the street and
calls:
Red Rover, Red Rover!
Someone come over!"
"Someone" may be Tom Brown, or
Dick, or Horry, but the playor mtiBt
be called by name. The boy so Indi
cated tries to cross without being
caught. It captured, he becomes a
Red Rover, and helps to catch the
rest.
The second variation Is known as
One-foot-off-and-two-feet-oft. In this
"It" commands those on the sidewalk,
"One foot off!" All must promptly
put their right foot In the gutter, and
at the order "Two feet off!" all run to
the opposite curb. The captured as
sist, as in Red Rover.
Another new game is "Stealing
Hats," in which the boys choose sides,
each Blue placing its hats on the curb
ing opposite to the others, and trying
to protect them wbile'at the same time
endeavoring to steal the hats ot the
enemy. The side which succeeds in
acquiring all the hats, of course, wins.
But it Is hard ou the hats, as mothers
will testify.
Leap frog is seldom played as of
old, but Is father to two Important off
shoots. In the favorite, Bombay, thi
leaper trios to tako several ''backs" at
one spring. "Backs" are also offered
in many various and difficult positions.
Spanlsn-fly 1b the second form, where
in the leaper takes but a single "back,"
but la required to "do stunts" while
leaping, the commands being gives by
a "Captain." "Johnny dump the ap
ple, cart" Is one at which the leaper
tries to throw the frog to the ground.
"Cut butter" and "Cut cheese" are
merely different ways ot smiting the
"frog" in the ribs with the edge of
the hands. "Mamma, spank the baby,"
needs no explanation 'tis as obvious
as It Is unpleasant for the "frog." San
Francisco Chronicle.

If a foreign body of any nature
should enter the eye, the sufferer's

the lid should be avoided, as such a
manipulation has a tendency to rut)
the foreign body Into the eyeball It
self, which Is a thing to be avoided. A
handkerchief may be gently lnld upon
the lid for a moment, according to
Woman'a Life, to steady and quiet tho
eye. The tears may wash the speck

eyelashes of the upper lid may he
grasped firmly and pulled down over
tho tinder lid and held there for a mo
ment, and then allowed to resume
their position. The lid and lashes ot
the under lid thus rubbing against the
upper lid may scrape away the speck.
If It still remains, a cool friend with
a steady hand can turn the tipper lid
over and the speck will be usually
found on the under surface of the tip

Arrangement of Hook Rhelvaa.
Books have many appreciative trib
utes from tho master minds ot all
nges. One phase of tholr usefulness
that appeals In a very practical man
ner to home makers Is the holp they
give in furnishing the house. When
this Tact becomes more generally rec
ognized nnd better understood there
will be a freer and more generous dis
tribution of books through all the diff
erent rooms. A room tilled with books
of reference, sets of standard authors
and collections of miscellaneous writ
ing Is too exclusively a literary work
shop for the ordinary household. It
Is better adapted for the use of the
professional worker, who must iso
late himself among surroundings and
with appliances that will carry him
forward In his cereer. The charm of
the modern living-room Is Its Informal
concentration of the family interests.
Books, magazines and papers may form
a large share of the attractive quali
ties of this room. A corner for writ
ing may be established with a table
or desk well lighted for evening use.
Shelves for the books may be built
against tho walls or hung from the pic
ture moulding. Small stands for hold
ing magazines, and comforiablo chairs
drawn near the windows, will add to
the pleasures afforded by reading,
while tho books themselves form a
specific part In beautifying the room.
