The Latest Turban
The somewhat severe linos of the
lafest smart Panama turban are re
lieved in the application of small
Banksia roses with quillings of velvet
cibbons and festooned loops and ends
of the same. The crown Is low and
round, and the wide brim Is pinched
up into the turban shape all around, a
smart point coming exactly In the
ftont. Each dent Is separately and dif
ferently trimmed, the greater part of
the trimming being posed Just at the
feft of the front, where a stiff-looking
rosette Is made with a flower centre
and a velvet ribbon quilling for the
lge. This is joined to the next one
Howard the back by loops of ribbon,
and the other side Is simply trimmed
with little bunches of the roses tucked
Into the folds. The back is built up
somewhat by a bandeau, and this, too,
la trimmed with flowers and velvet

Pointers as to Gloves.
"Don't buy a glove that Is too small,"
advised a woman buyer In one of the
Ux department stores. "It not only
cramps the hand, but it prevents grace
of motion and gives poor service.
"Not one-half the women who come
ffa here know what points to watch out
for In buying gloves. I try to Instruct
my girls to Inform customers, but a
woman must be ripe for the knowledge
through personal experience or the ad
vtne will not be appreciated.
"Black gloves are generally less elas
tic than light colors. Dressed kid
sgloves usually retain their freshness
longer and are more durable than
anede. Short-fingered gloves give the
hud a malformed look, and they soon
break out at the tips or between the
angers.
"Putting on a glove for the first
time has more to do with the fit and
wear than almost anything else. Take
time to fit them and, If possible, wear
them a good half hour before closing
the fingers. Button the last buttons
first, for the greatest strain naturally

' A True "Angel of the House."
It Is Mme that every woman, and
speclall' every, -woman with culture
and influence and social power, should

(She should do her duty faithfully and
lovingly, first of all to those who are
nearest to her; but she should remem
ber that the woman who thinks only
of her own home, and lives only for It,
will Inevitahly become a drudge, an
Idler or a toy.
To be truly the "angel of the house,"
woman must resolutely keep, and oft
times use, the wings that raise her
above the hou.se and all the things la
it. Bishop Henry C. Potter.
Neatness.
Freshness and neatness are imparted
to the working girl's garb by the use
of a livery, and this Is the reason for
the existence of the livery.
Cap and apron and neatly fitted suit
of gingham or black is no more a
badge of servitude than is the police
man's uniform, the soldier's military
trappings, or the trained nurse's striped
frock and trim cap. These take pride
In their liveries and so well may the
housemaid.
When the maid Is at work she should
be dressed in a manner suitable to her
employment. In the morning, when
she Is to be busy with her housework
In and out of the kitchen, handling her
broom and dust cloth, her dress should
be a neat print. In houses where the
mistress provides the working frocks
of the maids, as Is sometimes done,
she can have these frcoks made all of
one piece, but In the majority of homes
where but one or two maids are kept
they dress themselves.
Under these circumstances they can
not be expected to conform to any spe
cial style or color and probably will
wear shirt waists and skirts. It Is a
pity If the skirts are dark woolen
goods, because these gather dust and
retain the odors of cookery, but a large
apron will protect the skirt and wash
ing Is saved to the maid If her whole
gown Is not of light material. She Is
wise if she wears a large sweeping cap
In the morning when she Is busy at
work that Is likely to make dust, but
this can be exchanged for a smaller
cap when the rougher part of her
labor are out of the way.
For the afternoon, when It Is prac
ticable, the maid should wear a black
frock with white collar and cuffs and
a white bib apron. The apron may be
a little more elaborately trimmed than
the morning apron. In fact, for the
morning, a simple, plain, large apron
without bib is all that Is needed. This
applies to the maid of all work as well
as to the waitress and parlor maid, but
when one maid has to do the cooking
or the dinner before she serves It, It Is
almost too much to expect her to be
In her black suit all afternoon. She
may look neat In her gingham waist
and skirt, and then when she gets
everything in order for the dinner she
may slip away In her room for a min
ute and get into the black waist.
The waitress who has no kitchen
work Is usually expected to have on
her black waist soon after luncheon
so as to be ready to answer the door
bell properly dressed. The strictly cor
rect custom demands that she should
be In black before luncheon is served
but the rule Is not followed In the
average household. From the Wash'
ington Times.
Fashion Notes.
American Beauties and roses In the
faded shades are the favorites.
The ereens are prominent both In
millinery and frocks and many new
shades are shown.
For a senarate skirt In dark blue or
white serge or mohair the sun plaited
model Is particularly good.
An attractive gown In pale yellow
mousseline de sole was made with side
plaited waist, while the skirt was sun
plaited.
An esnedallv chic model hat shown
by a celebrated milliner was a roll
brim sailor tilted forward, as are all
such sailors this year.
The hats are eccentric. One must ad
mit that, but the eccentricity lies in
the combination of head and hat,
rather than the hat itseir.
fm needs masses of fluffy hair, a
charming face and youth to wear the
new hats well, and unluckily that com
bination is not so common as one could
wish.
Every style of costume from shirt
waist dress to ballroom gown may be
accordion or side plaited, and In every
material from chiffon to cloth Is it
attractive.
Walking hats of fine straw, trimmed
In broad scarfs of plaited straw, sup
ple as ribbon, and combining many
lovely shades, are among the French
hats, and are distinctly, practical as
well as pretty.
If, In many instances, there Is Intri
cate elaboration of detail, that detail
is at least made to hlend into a har
monious whole and only upon close
scrutiny is the complex nature of the
scheme evident
The small turbans are worn also for
dressy hats. A dainty model was made
of white mallne covered with tiny
orchids in pink and mature. A small
white ostridh feather and a whits
aigrette trimmed one aid.
Lamps and Candles.
Candlesticks and lamps made of
elasa after the old models are very
welcome after the long period we had
to endure the china and gilt banquet
lamp with ballet girl skirt shade.
When fitted with empire shades to
mntph the color scheme of a room
they look extremely well. The glasi
candlesticks are especially good ror
tahle proration and when surmount
ed by a colored shade make a table
very attractive. Utica Observer.
Furniture and Upholstery.
Where cloth-lined carriages and up.
holstered furniture are to be left for
the summer, brush well, especially
about the tufted portions, then spray
generouslv with nanhtha or benzine,
using, if you like, a small sprinkler
such ns is used for house plants.
Neither naphtha nor benzine will spot
the most delicate fabrics, and the odor
will pass In a few hours. Of course,
every one should understand that no
light, even from pipe or cigar, should
be allowed while this work is going
on, as the vapor from these fluids is
exceedingly Inflammable. For car
riages it Is well to repeat the spray
ing again In August. After furniture
has been well sprayed, wrap the legs
with soft paper and old muslin and
cover the upholstered portions with
tar paper, then old muslin which has
pieces of camphor gum tied In at In
tervals. Newark Advertiser.
Laundry Notes.
Never put table linen that Is fruit-'
stained Into hot soapsuds. This sets
and Axes the stain. '
Embroidered linens should not be
washed in tin or wooden tubs. All
risk of rust or stain may be avoided
by using an earthen bowl.
Flat iron holders, If lined with a
layer of old, soft leather, like the top
of a boot, will -protect your hand from
heat far better than If made In the or.
dinary way.
Wooden laundry tubs should be
washed out and dried. If they are
kept In a very dry place, they should
be turned upside down and the bot
toms covered with a little water.
To prevent blue spotting the clothes
put some out on a piece of white cloth,
gather up the corners and tie together.
Dip this bag In the water and squeeze
it until the water Is blue enough. In
this way the clothes will never be
come spotted.
The Modern Kitchen.
The kitchen must be well ventilated,
lighted and fitted with perfect cooking
apparatus, whether coal, gas, or elec
tricity. Proper plumbing and drainage are
Important, both for health and con
venience sake, says the Philadelphia
Inquirer.
A wainscoting of tile, with wall
above painted a dull blue or gray. Is
the most durable and easily cared
for finish for the kitchen, and also the
cheapest In the end, as It seldom re
quires renovation other than that of
washing down.
An expensive and invaluable ap
pointment Is the "hot metal table,"
which Is constructed In a manner to
be heated by pipes which are laid
back and forth under Its bed and in
connection with the range boiler, the
water turned off and on at pleasure.
Different sizes render this table avail
able In kitchens of various sizes.
The kitchen should be without
odors, by virtue of a range hood which
gathers them.
Recipes.

Prince and Kit.
When Prince was told by his mis
tress that he was to have a little sister
he did not like It and turned up his
nose more than a good little pug dog
should. "I never did like cats," he said
to himself, and ran off to bark at a big
black one on the fence. Then he slowly
caime back and sniffed at the soft little
ball of maltese fur that lay on the
doorstep.
Prince was like many little boys and
girls. He had been spoiled. When his
first master brought him to his present
home he was so thin that you could see
his ribs through his skin, and there
was an ugly bare spot where a woman
had thrown hot water on him and It
had taken his hair off. His paws were
sore, and no wonder, for he had walked
and trotted beside his master's wagon
two thousand miles, as far as half way
across the great Atlantic ocean. For
whole days he had to live at times on
a few scraps of bread, and had to lap
up water from some ditch by the road
side. Many a day as he trotted along
the dusty road his tongue was so dry
that It hung out of his mouth.
But his new mistress liked dogs, and
Prince had nice bits of beef to eat and
milk to drink and bread with butter
and sugar on It, for his dessert. He
had a little red blanket to sleep on,
and lay on this In his mistress's bed
room on cold nights when other dogs
had to shiver on piles of straw In
sheds or out of doors. Soon he grew
smooth and fat. The hair came over
the ugly patch on his skin and he
looked like the high-born pug that he
was.
Prince was a good dog. He only ran
away once or twice, and when his mis
tress told him how wrong It was, he
put his paws on her lap and asked her
pardon. Then she told him about the
wicked men who caug.. -tie dogs who
ran away, and put them In a wire
cage In a big wagon and took them to
a place where they were all drowned.
After that Prince might go to the fron,t
door and look out, but he would not
go Into the streets alone.
When Kit came to be his little sister,
Prince thought that she would eat his
nice things, and that made him sniff
at her and then run off with his bones
and bury them. After a little while he
saw that Marie, the maid, gave him
just ns much as ever for his dinner
and that he had as many goodies as
before Kit came. Then he let her He
down on the edge of his blanket and
did not growl when she crawled up to
where he was eating. He felt he had
been selfish, so when Marie asked them
both to come and eat one day. Prince
let Kit stay beside him, and even In
vited her to jump up on her hind legs
and brace against him, so that she
would have as good a chance a3 he at
the goodies In Marie's hand.
Another time he very politely waited
and gave Kit the first chance while he
stood off and watched her jump for the
tidbits.
Good dogs, like good boys and girls,
always get their reward. Did you ever
let a cat lick you with her tongue? It
Is rough and feels like a brush. Well,
dogs like to be brushed and rubbed.
Kit must have known this, for when
evening came and the two stopped
playing, she would lie down beside
him. and lick his face and back and
paws just as an old cat washes her
kittens.
Prince was part bulldog and was
fond of holding on. He would set his
teeth In a piece of wood and you could
drag him all around before he would
let go. But It was all in play. He
never bit anybody, no matter how
much he was teased. Prince and Kit
are both growing old now, and do not
play as much as they did, but they are
as happy together as if they were real
brother and sister, and show how
nicely a well-bred dg and cat can get
on with each other. New York
Tribune.
Geography Day With Mother.
Polly and Carrie were very happy.
Mother had decided that they were to
have lessons at home during the win

To-day was geography day. ,
Polly had the pretty globe that
mother let her buy with her birthday
dollar, and Carrie had the lovely book,
"Great Cities of the World," that
Uncle Will had given her. Mother was
allowing them to use her folding sew
ing table, and this always pleased the
little girls.
On mother's table was a pile of
prettily mounted magazine pictures.
Polly and Carrie had never seen any of
this set before, so they were full
eagerness.
"What is the first city described
your book, Carrie?" asked mother.
"London," replied Carrie.
"Yes, because it's the very large
city in the world. Polly, can you fin

"I don't think I can," said Polly,

"Oh, I see It, I see It!" exclaimei
Carrie.
"Now we will visit London for

There were fine pictures of the gred
