The very newest fad In chatelaine purses Is a steel mesh, mounted with royal copper, studded with cut steel. The combination of yellowish brown copper and the bright cut steel Is ex tremely unique and attractive. Belt and bat pins, and numerous chatelaine at tachments, are shown In tho new royal copper. Some are studded with preci ous atones and are very dainty. Crochet Silk. Amateur dressmakers who are plan ning to stitch with crochet silk are In for no end of trials and tribulations. In the first place, there's troublo in threading it on the sewing machine. It is so very coarse. In the next place, It Is not wound on a regulation spool; so the spool It Is wound on has to be kept in a box, the silk being carried up over a side gas fixture or some such arrange ment. It will pucker up under the ten sion and have to be pulled back every other second. Then there's trouble In getting the under thread, the best way out of it being the coarscat cotton one can And for the bobbin. If one can stitch it evenly tho effect Is likely to be very good. It makea the machine heavy to run, and it makes ono wonder Just what sort of a machine wns omployed In tho stitching of that Imported pon gee dress on which three threads of this heavy silk In contrasting colors were carried as tho upper thread. One person who knows about It from bitter experience started out to have garni tures consisting of Ave rows of stitch ing. She has decided that one row Is sufficient A Queen's Girlhood. When Queen Alexandra's father mar ried he had nothing to keep his family on, says J. H. Twells In Munsey's, but his pay as an oiftVer In the Danish army and his wife's mod:nt dowry. He used to give dancing lessons on the quiet to the families of rich merchants to help out the domestic buuget. Alexandra and her s.ater Dagmar, af terward Empress of Russia, were taught to do their own sowing and tidy up their rooms. Thoy wore cheap and plain clothes. Once Alexandra wanted a muslin gown such as other girls of her age were wearing. Her mother told her that her father could not af ford it The girls used to wash the teacups sometimes, too. It would not have been safe to take chances with tho hired girl. Later, when Alexandra and Dagmar had married the heirs of the greatest empires of Europe and Asia, they used to inBlBt, In visiting their old home, upon occupying together the lit Uo upper room they had formorly shared, and each wrote her name and a Danish sentiment on the window glass with a diamond. They lacked tho dia monds to do it with in the early days and, besides, they would not have ven tured to spoil the glass. Veil Beauty. The chiffon veil with the embroider ed border is one of the latest Ideas in redls. Once upon a time the plain chiffon veil satisfied us. But not bo now. We are on an extravagant path In the mat ter of dress, and so even the matter-of-fact chiffon veil for morning wear must be beautified. One veil was embroldored with rlz lag lines like leaping flames. Some do not go in for such elabor ate effects, but simply have the em broidered dot. Of course, if the veil Is draped carefully about the hat this touch of embroidery gives a very dain ty trimming note to the chapeau. One of the quaintest of tho new veils een has a narrow knife-plaited ruffle on the edge. It is quite an old-faab-loned touch, but nil the more popular for that reason those days, when the more we look like our grandmothers the better pleased wo are. Another veil fad is to wear one matching in color the hat. Of course these little dress modes don't cost any thing! It 1b a mere bagatelle to have a do.-.on or so veils to match our dozen or to hats. Failing in this, we might achieve one veil to match our one hat. But this Is a matter which must be sot tied in a hoart-to-hoart talk between us and the Man Behind the Cheek Booh. Philadelphia Telegraph. A Sure Sign of Pronreao. Among the things that are not as they used to be Is the control which women exercise, nowadays, over their own money. There was a time which many persons who are not yet enfee bled with age can easily recall, when the purses and pocke.tboolis that women owned were used largely for carrying samples of dress goods, cooking-recipes, trunk keys, etc. Occasionally a woman'B wallet that harbored a few bank notes would be found and thon the husband of the possessor would be exploited as a prodigy of liberality. "Do you know that Mrs. has her own pocketbook?" would be whispered About by the submissive and withal en vious women, who were accustomed to supplicate their husbands for sums of money as trifling as a quarter. In those .days there were certain thrifty house rivea who sold milk and butter and eggs and the like, but the proceeds of these products were devoted to the pur chase of clothing and other articles which It was the plain duty of the husband to supply. . If the suffragists and woman's rights champions never get any nearer to the goal for which they are striving than they are now, they can. at least point to great advancement in the establish ment of the property rignts of women not only possess pocket books filled with money, but they actually maintain bank accounts and draw checks against their personal deposits. There Is a large financial institution in this city which has been compelled to enlarge the fa cilities It originally provided 'for taking care of Its woman patrons. Women in all walks of llfo now keep bank ac countsthose who work for a living as well as those who have large incomes. ThlB is a part of the new social system, and Its effect is ueneflclal in many ways. It encourages thrift nnd economy and teaches women business methods which they find highly valuable. Kan sas City Star. Mincemeat Helped a Bit, Apropos of the question as to wheth er writing as a profession pnys a good living, Miss Elizabeth Hanks, author of "The Autobiography of a Newspaper Olrl," relates some of her experiences with I.ondon authoi-s, known to the world as successful. "The other day," said Miss Banks, "I was calling on a well-known woman writer, whoso books are widely known In Englnr.d and America, and have been well translated into one or two Continenal languages. She writes two books a year that Is, on nn average. Her books are not great books by any mean3, but thoy are not bad books, and that is saying a great deal. Over the tea cups we talked books and I com plimented her upon the success of her lost book. I looked about her pretty home, and I said: " 'I call It a sign of woman's progress and advancement that a member of my sex can keep up a home like tills by book writing.' " 'I don't keep It up by book writing,' she arswertd. " 'Cut I thought you had always said that, unlike most other English women workers, you had not heen left with an Income by your parents that you had your own row to hoe entirely by yourself." " 'True,' she replied, 'but it costs me COO a year to keep up thlB style of liv ing, and I never make more than a hundred and fifty a year out of my books. I make another 150 out of news paper and magazine writing, and I make the rest of my Income out of mincemeat.' " 'Mincemeat?' I echoed. " 'Yes, mincemeat.' "She sat back and laughed till the tears rolled down her cheeks, till I got to laughing myself, and our tea got cold, and we had to wait for another pot to be brewed. "It turned out that this writer of many books had for several years been carrying on a private trade in mince meat made by herself with the help of a lady companion. She started among her frlonns, they recommended hor to tholr friends, they to otner, till finally she secured a steady Income from mak ing mincemeat" Kansas City Journal. Fashion Notes. Grape decorations are still in favor. Rose foliage hats are among the love liest. Many handsome waists button in the back. Cream Ib in the locd for handsomf costumes. Gun metal taffeta frocks are tre mendously smart Little wraps on coffee coat lines are 0.3 jaunty as thoy are useful. Three to five ruffles ore pretty on or gandie skirts for young girls. Corset costumes In snow-white linen are tho most fetching creations. Both tucks and Insertions are good style Bot round both blouse and skirt. Embroidered dots, rather large, are upon some of the most desirable para sols. Shaded gray silk cluny lace is beauti ful on gun metal sllka, voiles and etam lnes. There seems to be difficulty in get ting the back of a plaited skirt to look graceful. Stole-like extonslons still distinguish most neck fixings from gauzy stocks to coat finishes. One beautiful Bort of ostrich plume Is known as tha, snake, the lobster or tho lyre plume. A couple of ostrich plumes with quill tips are caught onto handsome toques with good effect. Triple box-plalted and belted long coaU are the better for a skirt with the same sort of plait back and front One dress combines two contrasting styles the seams are strapped down to the flounce, which la shirred five timet at the upper edge.

The quantity of material required for the medium size is four nnd one-half yards twenty-seven inches wide, three ynrds forty-four Inches wide, or two nnd ono-hnlf yards nTty-two Inches vide. Hemming to Voting filrls. Shirred waists always are becoming to young girls and are greatly In vogue at the present time. The very pretty nnd attractive May Mnuton one shown combines the broad shouldered effect with tho shirring at the waist line, which gives the effect of a belt, and Is as new ns It Is attractive. As Illus trated In the large drawing It Is made of white mull with n yoke of lace, but Boft wool nnd silk fabrics nre ap propriate as well as the cotton aud linen ones. The waist is made over a fitted foun dation which closes with It at the back. The yoke is faced onto the lining and the wnlst proper Is shirred nud ar ranged over It. The sleeves are shirred at their upper portions to form con tinuous lines with the waist, und ngnlu between the shoulders and the elbows. They can be made In elbow length, as Illustrated, or In tho long bishop style, as shown In the small cut. If n trnii parent effect Is desired the lining can be cut away beneath tho yoko and be neath the full portions of tho sleeves. The quantity of material required for the medium size Is three and one-fourth yards twenty-seven Inches wide, thiee yards thirty-two Inches wide, or two and one-elghtU yards forty-four luches wide, with llve-ulghtb yards of all-over lace. Tuck shlrrlngs are greatly In vogue and are peculiarly desirable for the gowns designed for young girls. The extremely graceful and pretty skirt shown In the large drawing Includes t yoke and flounce effect, with add!- tlonnl shirring midway between the two, and Is eminently desirable. The original Is made of dotted muslin, but the design suits nil the soft, pliable fabrics of the season equally well. The skirt consists of a three-piece foundation nnd tho skirt proper, which Is cut In one, slightly circular, piece. At the lower edge Is a group of three tucks that makes a most satisfactory finish. Tho skirt Is shirred on Indi cated lines nnd Is drawn up to fit tho foundation. The quantity of material required for the medium size is six ynrds twenty seven inches wide, four Anil three fourth yards thirty-two Inches wide, or four yards forty-four luches wide. Trarollnlj downs. Gowns for traveling and street wenr made of foulard (which Is still in high vogue) are far ahead of those of brll llantlne or mohnlr, ns they are equally durable, more congenlnl to the touch, resist damp or salt air nnd shed dust nswell. For ordlnnry wear they are cheaper than any of the dainty mus lins, ns they do not have to be lnun dered, nnd can be worn even on cere monious occasions. They are, however, mostly made on the smart shirt waist model, and elaborated ns desired by quantities of lace and ribbons, espe cially those In the light designs with plenty of white In the ground, tho dark foulards being selected for traveling. The old or standard designs (which never go out of fashion) can be had cheaper than the new Ucsigus. Woman's lllmisn WnUt. Nothing marks the season more sure ly than the bertha effects that are to be noted in many of the fancy waists. This very stylish model thowg one of WAIST AND SKIRT. novel shnpe and combines with It sleeves that me among the latest Bhown.

If the material Is colored calico use warm soap suds. If woolen, ammonia and soap suds. If silk, ben zino, ether, ammonia, magnesia or chalk. Washing Handkerchief. This Is one way of washing handker chiefs: Dip them In warm water, soap each ono on both sides, fold loosely, and put them In a pile in a basin, without water, to soak for an hour or longer. Rub them on a washboard with a large nailbrush dripped In hot water, boll for a few minutes, rinse In clear water, and dry. Begin the ironing in the centre, and not on the border, Cleaning Steel Blades. When knives have steel blades they should be cleaned and polished after each using. This is best accomplished If a small basket Is kept noar at hand which contains a potato, a bathbrick and a polishing cloth. Scrape a little of the brick upon a board, dip the cut end of the potato into it, and use this to rub the blade of the knife free of all stains. Then polish with the cloth and wash tho handle In warm but not hot water. Cleaning Oriental Rugs. If you have a genuine oriental rug you need not fear to wash it whenever the surface becomes soiled, as the col ors are perfectly fast and the rugs have been washed many ttmes beforo they are brought to this country, says the Chicago News. Fasten It to a smooth, hard floor and wash with strong soap suds, then rinse thoroughly with clear wateir to remove every trace of the soap. Squeeze out what water you can by pressing the rug while It lies on the floor and let It dry before removing. In this way it will retain its shape. When dry rub with a soft brush to remove any stiffness there may be. In the sum mer the rug may be nailed to the side of the barn, and after it is washed can be thoroughly rlused by turning water on It with a hose. Stewed Chicken with Dumplings. One chicken weighing three pounds, one tablespoonful of butter, three of flour, one large onion, three slices of carrot, three of turnip, three-pints of boiling water, salt and pepper. Cut the chicken in pieces suitable for serving; wash and put in a deep stewpan, add the water and set on to boll. Put the carrot, turnip and onion cut fine In the saucepan with the butter and cook slowly for half an hour, stirring rapid ly; then take up the vegetables in the strainer, place the strainer In the stew pan with the chicken and dip some of the water Into it. Mash the vegetables with the back of a spoon and rub as much as possible through the strainer, then aklm two spoonfuls of chicken fat from the water and put it in the pan In which the vegetables are to be cooked. When boiling hot add three tablespoon fuls of flour; stir over the Are until a dark brown, then stir in with the chic ken and Blmmer until tender; season well with pepper and salt The stew should only Blmmer all the time it is cooking it should not boll hard. About two hours will be needed to cook a year old chicken. Twelve minutes be fore serving draw the stewpan forward and let the contents boll up, then put In the dumplings and cook ten minutes. Take them out and let them cook In the heater while the chicken Is being dished. Place It in tho centre of the platter; pour the dumplings around tho edge. Stewed chicken Is much more economical than roast chicken, and it can also be prepared without the vege tables. Philadelphia Record. Recipes. Soft Gingerbread.
