They uld net expect either teeth, nails or ir to grow in perfection were they t taken eare of, and the same applies the eyebrows. They need massag- ¢ and shaping frequently. Failing this, there will be scraggy lines or arse, projecting hairs, the latter one the most conspicuous disfigurements voman can have.

This is the law which governs clothes, a law for which there seems to be no good reason. What person with any teeling for clothes has ever ransacked some old worm-eaten chost full of old lace and quaint jewelry and heavily flowered or lavender color gowns all made in the fashions of years ago without ex- periencing some sensation of regret? It was, of courze, absurd at any time in the history of the world for old women to wear ringlets, but it is just as absurd for no women to wear ringlets because scmebody or other says they have gune out of fashion. Certain peach-bloom cheeks were made to be shaded by the soft dusk of black curls, just as certain heads were born to look perfect under the latest hat in black straw and paradise plumes. There is the woman who never looks so handsome as in hard, plain tailor made costumes, and her sister who turns us dizzy when she appears in loose drapceries of ivory tinted lace sprayed with flowers, In fact, it shoo 1 be the aim of life, not to stunt chaiacter or destroy in- dividuality. There should be a thou- sand fashions, where now there are only a hundred, and all these fash- fons should be on show at one and the same time. And every woman should be true to herself and her character of beauty, She should change her fashions every hour of the day if she were s0 disposed until she had suc- ceeded in finding the ezact fashion which made her a thing of perfection. And then, by law, she would be al- lowed to change no more. In chocsing the individual note in dress it should be done with an eye to color. [very woman has her own particular shuaue, suggested perhaps by her hair or eyes, and it is the shade that suits her best once she knows it. She should let her dress- maker or tailor do the rest for the col- or harmony. What prettier picture could be imagined than the woman with the curious touch of amber in her eyes in a white gown with amber beads and amber waistbelt? BEAD BORDER A DECORATION No Prettier Method of Adornment for Pillows That Are to Be Used on the Porch. An unusual but pretty way to decor ate stand covers and pillows for porch use {s by means of a bead border. The stand covers as well as the pillows are made of & heavy canvas or monk's cloth. The beads are sewed In pllcoi to form a border, following some sim- ple set design. It is best to mark par allel lines on the goods so that the border will be straight. The beads are then sewed in short rows at right ! angles to the parallel lines. Green | and white beads are a combination | usually seen, as they give a lrenh.l clean appearance in keeping with their use for outdoor decoration, The bead border makes the stand covers heavy and in this they are weighted so that they cannot blow from the table. Either a very narrow border or a design across the corners | is all that should be used on the pil- lows. FOR THOSE WHO EMBROIDER Expert Advice That, Carefully Fok lowed, Will Result in Improve ment of Appearance of Work. When embroidering ootton crepes, marquisettes and similar materials, first baste muslin underneath the de- sign to be worked and work careful- ly around on the wrong side and the result will be beautitul work firm and without a pucker. To give machine embroidered neck- wear and waists a handsome finish, embroider over them in white or col or, saving the time of stamping and padding. The result is.very effective. ' Instead of using embroidery hoops, baste your material onto stif brown wrapping paper. It is easier to work this way, and does not stretch the material as the hoops do. Use round corset lacing for Dld-‘ ding scallop embroidery. No extra stitching or basting ig needed.

It is pleasant to learn that lovers of Gilbert White are considering the purchase of the picturesque butcher shop and house at Selborne for a museum of the parson-naturalist. Few of the thousands of readers of White's “Selborne” know the precise whereabouts of the village, and fewer still have visited it. Yet it is within 60 miles of London, and lies about five miles south of the main Winches- ter road to Alton, under the wooded hill the Hanger, whose beech trees in a month or two will be at their best.
