ELEGANT TABLEWARE.
ft:ire I.ace EflTertft Shown In a Dessert Serv
ice of Venetian (ilanfl.
It is - rare indeed nowadays that one
sees even the table of a poor man set
with plain white ware, while the
houses of the wealthy show set after
sot of china of such beauty and value
that caretakers are put under bonds to
insure its safety. The most expensive
services are of Doulton, Royal Worces
ter, or Dresden, the latter with its tiny
flowers being exceedingly popular
with those who can afford it. The Eng
lish Caitldon ware, though costing
more than the Haviland china, is said
to be better worth the difference in
price, as it is claimed that it will not
chip easily.
Corn sets are shown, with long, slen-
dor platters with plates to match, as
are sets for serving asparagus.
Bohemian glass is used for salad
bowls a nd linger bowls.

DESSERT DIBII IX VENETIAN GLASS.
dessert service in Venetian glass, dcc-
I orated in quite a new style and made
especially for the queen. The service
consists of two large and six smaller
dishes, each shell-shaped, of pale opal
escent pink color, never made before,
mounted with a griffon splashed with
gold, and part covered with what ap
pears from a short distance a square
of real lace of exquisite workmanship.
On closer investigation, however, these
covers turn out exceedingly clever imi
tations of lace designs, enameled by
hand, and afterwards lired to render
them durable. The lace design on the
two large dishes consists of combina
tion of rose, thistle and shamrock,
with a butterfly hovering between the
flowers. On the same dishes the grif
fon holds a shield on which the royal
crown is enameled in color. Shape,
coloring and decorative workmanship
of those dessert dishes are of the ut
most elegance and delicacy.

Method In Her Vunlty.
A well-known cesthetc recently ad
vised women never to pass a mirror
without looking into it, and observant
persons perceive the wisdom of this in
junction. When one is shopping, for
instance, full-length mirrors are fre
quently encountered, and a passing
glance is sullicient to reveal the dis
ordered veil or hat, the strip of braid
torn from the bottom of the gown, the
bow or flounce awry or any other de
fect in the toilet, and it is then an cvisy
matter to remedy the shortcoming,
which, neglected, would stamp one as
jfr lacking in proper regard for tidiness.
Therefore, the modern woman glances
into every mirror as she hurries along
and takes a furtive peep now and then
into the jeweled glass suspended at her
belt, caring not one whit if some of her
friends deem it a vanity, as long as she
is thus reassured of her neat and trim
appearance.
Th Woo On©'* Thumb.
Nothing too strong can ho said
against permitting- children to such
their thumbs. Charming and heart
delighting as this common occupation
of the haby is to the average mother,
nothing will more surely ruin the
/J shape of the hands. It is the cause of
A broad, flat thumbs in after life. There
are preparations o put upon tho baby's
thumbs which will render these rosy
v digits less palatable, and after one or
two attempts baby will soon forget the
Acjuricus habit.
TOO MUCH ORDER.
Tt Makes Home Life Just as Intolerable
n n Lack of System.
; A house in which there is no orderly
b routine is a very uncomfortable place,
j no doubt, but too much order may be
equally disagreeable and wearing, the
nerves of the family being rasped as
were those of people who lived with It.
Wlifer's wife.
People to whom order is not the
means td a desired end, but the end
itself, give themselves and others a
great deal of needless trouble. A chair
or a book out of place distresses them.
A blur on the window pane drives
thorn to distraction, unless they can at
once remove it. A meal slightly de
layed beyond the appointed hour loses
for them its savor.
Order is their fetich. In vain their
friends beg them to be philosophical,
[ to try elasticity as a sort of buffer
against annoyances. They shake their
■ heads wearily, and keep on fretting.
i And the fretting marks their foreheads
and indents their lips and writes its
record on tlicir face 9, while husbands
and children sigh for a little cheerful
happy-go-lucky disorder. The daugh
ter of the over orderly mother is often,
by the law of reaction, an absurdly un
systematic personage.—Harper's Bazar.
HOMEMADE BOOKLET.

The little book shown in the accom
panying illustration can be made at
home, and will be as pretty and dainty
as any purchased book could be, be
sides having the additional recom
mendation of being constructed with
one's own fingers and stitches. The
poem may be original or selected from
Whittier or some other favorite poet,
and may be written upon the type
writer or written in one's own hand

a rough surface should be chosen for
the pages. The cover is celluloid, and
may be of white or some delicate tint.
It is perfectly plain on the edges, and
has eyelet holes at the back, which ex
tend through all tho pages within. A
ribbon passed into these holes forms all
the ''binding" needed, and is tied in a
careless bow on tho front cover. A
dainty Christmas or birthday card is
fastened to the celluloid with tiny bows
of baby ribbon at alternate corners. I f
one is gifted with his brush or pen, the
card is doubly pretty if ornamented
with an original design—a bit of land

Tlie Study of Mmtiicrfl.
I An eastern female college has intro
| duced into its curriculum a systematic
j study of manners. It is to he hoped
that other institutions of learning—es
pecially public schools—will take up a
like course. As a nation we arc sadly
deficient in this respect,
to avoid elaborate and often absurd
ceremonies of European polite life, we
have gone to the opposite extreme, and,
as a consequence, sometimes Americans
I of the most refined nature appear rude
and uncouth. We need to know more
of the conventionalities of ulegant so
ciety, without going into the finical
questions of etiquette that arc bother
some and unimportant. Teach our
young men and women the politeness
that comes from a gentle heart and a
ielicatc perception.—Womankind.

TESTS OF BREEDING.
Uooil Munnprs Have Their Kliurpettt Test
at Home.
Frankness without rudeness, inde
pendence without the least tinge of
egotism, sincerity freed from any show
of coarseness, promptness of expres
sion without undue liberty of speech,
and the grace and sweetness of atten
' tion and sympathy are the nerves of
! good manners. Lacking these mere
physical attractiveness goes for naught;
! with them a homely face and an un
: classic form appear positively beauti
ful. Style tells, and there can be no
good style in the absence of good char
acter.
One of the shrewdest things that
Emerson ever said was: "He that does
i not fill a place at home, cannot abroad."
j Good manners begin at home and have
their sharpest test in the conduct of
everyday domestic affairs and in the
management of what we are wont to
consider the insignificant circum
stances of private life. It was a vulgar
old woman who said: "I hain't got no
Sunday-go-to-meetin' foolishness about
me;" but her remark carried a val
uable suggestion of what man
ners should be, the same every
day in the year. That is to
say, the habit of life, not the for
mality assumed for an occasion,
is the true basis of social conduct,
and early youth is the time in which a
proper habit of life is to be acquired.
What we do from habit we do without
self-consciousness, easily and with such
grace as we have. Good breeding is
but tiic hereditary habit of doing the
right thing as a matter of course. If
you have not good breeding the next
best thing is sound self-training, not in
outward expression alone, but in in
ward taste, aspiration and attitude.
For manners are but extrinsic badges
of intrinsic values. The flower is from
the root; the grace of charming con
duet is from the purest wells of right
feeling and honest purpose, lie sure
that a worthy motive and an unselfish
attitude of mind are behind your con
duet and you need not dread criticism.
Somehow genuine goodness and a sym
pathetic attention to others cove* all
of our merely conventional shortcom
ings, provided these shortcomings are
not the result of vulgarity which is in
compatible with ordinary regard for
one's station in life.—Angeline Bryce
Martin, in Chautauquan.
A TOILET SECRET.
How to Wave the Hair According to the
Latest Dictum.
The fashion of waved hair brings
about a new method in the use of the
old-fashioned curling iron. The hair
must no longer be crimped, but must
be laid over the head in large, natural
looking waves. The entire secret lies
in the fact that the iron is no longer
applied to the tip of the tress of hair,
and the hair wound over it, but the
tress of hair itself is wound around the
iron, beginning as near the scalp as it
is comfortable to hold the heated iron.
The illustration shows better than
words exactly how this is done. The
parting of the hair, which proved so
unpopular when it was first introduced,
has been accepted chiefly by those per
sons of a Madonna type of face, for

which so many maidens still continue
to wear Is too becoming to the major

of fashion.
Rcclpo for Creamed Eggs.
Take four slices of toast, four hard
boiled eggs, two tablespoonfuls of but
ter, one-fourth of a teaspoonful of pep
per, one teaspoonful of salt, one tea
spoonful of llotir, three gills of milk.
Cut the eggs Into thin slices. Cut the
slices of toast in halves and lay them
in a warm platter. Put the butter on
the fire in a frying pan and when it be
comes hot add the flour. Stir until the
mixture is smooth and frothy. Gradu
ally add the cold milk, stirring all the
time. When this boils up add the salt
and pepper. Mix the eggs with the
sauce and spread on the toast, liako
in a moderate oven for six minutes and
serve immediately.

The Journal of Hygiene says lemon
ade is the most perfect of drinks; that
it ought to be substituted for tea,
coffee and alcoholic drinks. This is
the direction given for making it:
"For a quart, take the juice of
three lemons, using the rind of one
of them. Carefully peel the rind very
thin, getting just the yellow outside.
This cut into pieces and put with the
juice and powdered sugar, of which
use two ounces to the quart, in a jug
or jar with a cover. When the water
is at boiling point pour it over the
lemon and sugar; cover at once and let
it tret cold."

served by digging out the eyes, one or |

JEWELS FOR THE HAIR.

Single rieer of Jewelry That Can He
.Subdivided Many Times—l'rctty Rib
bon Ornaments Worn by Our
Everyday Girls.
The flexibility which has so long
been desired by jewelers in the con
struction of certain articles seems to
have been attained in the beautiful
tiara of diamonds shown. It is de
signed in a very light and graceful
stylo and can be converted into four
different articles. First there is the
handsome central crown. This may
be taken to pieces and merely left as a
tiara; the sides, by means of clasps,
are joined together and produce a
smaller model. Then the large tiara,
supplemented by the two narrow bands
of jewels which rest on the hair, is
converted into a massive diamond
nccklaek, the smaller one in turn being
similarly adopted. Further subdivis
ions OK this ingenious ornament pro-

ride a small necklet by taking the two
sides of the original crown. Then,
again, it is possible to have merely a
single-stone necklet from the junction
of the two slender bands of the coro
net. The achievement is the more re
markable since it has not so far been
foun'Lnossible to obtain flexibility in a
flora i design. This trinket is valued
at the modest sum of §3,500.
Another model, comparatively low
priced, but also worthy of much ad
miration, is a diamond and pearl
aigrette for the hair, which can be de
tached and worn as a brooch. The
third figure is a shell hairpin sur
mounted by two dainty little Mercury
wings united by a knot of diamonds.
In these days of much dressed heads
handsome hair ornaments are becom
ing daily more popular.
It is a far cry from these jeweled
playthings of the wealthy to the simple,
little, ribbon ornament of the every
day girl is probably just as happy as
she of the diamond crown.
Many a young girl manages to look
delightfully pretty with a dainty rib
bon bow in her hair instead of a glit
tering jeweled one. Two styles are
particularly popular. For the first,
four bows of velvet ribbon are tightly
tied, with two upstanding ends of the
same. Itose-colorcd velvet is the fa
vorite, and when a tiny bow of white
lace is introduced the effect is
charming on pretty brown hair.
These can be worn with a rou
leau of velvet or can be fastened
in the hair with a fine, steel crescent
hair pin. The other popular how real
ly consists of four ends of crosswny
velvet, arranged nvo on each side, with
a tie in the center. The outer ends ure
longer than the others and are cut in
Vandykes. On orange, blue, or pink
bows of this kind a narrow jet trim
ming is run on a little way within the
edge. Another dainty ornament for
the hair is a rouleau of blue velvet and
five rosettes of blue silk lisse. The
rouleau is worn across the top and
around one side of the coil of the hair.
Near the front end a butterfly is light
ly placed above a good-sized rosette.
The smaller rosettes are placed on the
band at intervals, two being quite at
the end.
Domestic Service In Saxony.
Women whose lives are made miser

will road with interest, if not appreci
ation, this item concerning the laws of
Saxony, which are indeed somewhat
curious, relating to servants. For in
stance, the mistress, is required to
allow the servant one pound of
butter and one pound of coffee per
month, or their equivalent in money.
If the servant furnishes her own bed
ding she receives three farthings per
night for so doing. Three shillings
per month is allowed the servant for
washing, and she receives five per cent,
on all purchases she makes. She must
give a month's notice before leaving
her place, and must keep a book for
recommendations, in which, upon leav- !
Ing her place, her mistress is com- i
polled to state the cause of the serv- j
ant's leaving, and also what is her
character.
