Brides all over the world like to make the best display possible on their wedding day, and the bridal attire of the various countries is invariably both costly and beawtiful. For sheer ousness, however, i weuld be to rival the wedding finery of the Delles of the island of Sumatra. The dress is woven entirely of gold thread, and its weight is so great that the wearer can hardly move; even stand- ing up requires a distinct effort. Apart from this shimmering, golden garment, the bride is loaded down with gold ornaments, rings, bangles, ear- rings, pendants, girdles and necklaces and sundry ornamental purses of the same metal. The huge ornaments hanging on chains around her neck are hollow, but al! the smaller cha.rm1 of solid native gold, most massively wrought. One might almost think that the natives, having heard something about a good wife being “worth her weight in gold,” had set out to prove the fact by loading thelr quaint lttle brides with the actual equivalent ot their weight in thg precious metal. CLEANING FURS. Beaver and sealskins should be clean- ed with hot salt. White fox fur should be rubbed with equal parts of calcined magnesia and dry flour. Clean chinchilla with talcum power, well rubbed into the skin and then shaken out. bet or angora, white or gray, may be washed in warm, soapy water, but the skin must be carefuily stretched during the process of drying to pre- vent cockling. All linings should, of course, be removed before the fur is placed in the water. To clean light colored furs remove the wadding and lining, lay the fur flat on the table and fasten one end firm- ly with drawing pins. Then warm some bran in the oven and rub it into the fur, working with a straight movement against the way of the kair. When the bran will absorb no more remove the pins and shake the nt thoroughly gan NEEDLE-WDRK NOTES. o keep a placket from tearing fast- en the last or bottom hook and eye, then clamp it with a hammer. It can- not come unhooked; cannot tear or rip and eases the strain on the goods just below -the placket at the spot Which so often is torn, even on com- paratively new goods. A new idea Is to have white h petticoats of pique or poplin closel fitted to the figure and finished around the bottom edge with embroidered lops. Such a skirt is daintler, less nsive and more durable than those made of silk, and is worn with tail- ored suits and closely fitting light weight wool dresses. The kimono form will be retained in dressy effects, but usually the fore- arm will be closely fitted, this, in com- bination with the kimono cut, nec tating the retention of & very larg armhole. This cut will be much used in transparent bodices and in even- ing wraps. Generally speaking, day dresses and separate blouses will have long sleeves, with frills or lace falling over the hands. Sew on the edge of the dust ruffle on your white petticoats coarse rick- rack braid, which will stand hard wear and prevents fraying of the edge of the ruffle, and protects the delicate lace and embroidery on the outside ruffle, A writing pad, which could easily De slipped into a trunk or suitcase and thus facilitate the sending of letters and cards. Cover a square or oblong of heavy cardboard with serviceable dark figured cretonne. Cover the up- per half with large and small pockets to hold letter paper, envelopes, cards a with one long nar row porket for the ‘pen. The half serves as the writing pad, which is covered with blotting paper held in place with elastic bands. A writing pad can thus be quickly made by your own clever fingers at very much less than it would be purchased at a shop.

CONCERNING WOMEN. Jane Dav and Julia Richmond re- verse the old order of things on the east side of New York, where they advocate that the child shall teach the mother and not the mother the child; that is, the mother s to learn by the scientific study of her child. Good work of this kind is also said to have been done In the state of Oregon and parents’ and teachers’ assoclations in all parts of the country are taking up the work A New York composer and director of music, who has been all summer in Europe studying the new dances, that women abroad are not nearl: chic and well dressed as in this country. Whenever he saw smartly gowned women it was only to find that they were American woman travelers. Europeans are coming to recognize the fact, he says, that the best dressed women in the world are Americans. REPAIRING WINDOW SHADES. Remove from the rollers, make a hem on the unworn end of the shades and insert the stick, straighten the worn end and tack it to the roller. Always trim shades with a knife, using a straight edge as a guide. This makes a clean, smooth cut. RECIPES, Eggless Cookles. Here is a recipe for fine cookies that need no eggs and will keep for weeks in a closed jar. One large cup of butter and lard mix- ed, one cupful sugar, one cupful mo- lagses, one half cupful water, one tablespoonful of ginger, one of cin- namon, one teaspoonful of cloves, one teaspoonful of soda and flour for stiff dough. Roll thinner than for sugar cookies. Pour over the soda a_little bolling water before using it. If your dough is mixed properly, the cookies will be shiny and spicy when done. This recipe will make five dozen. Jellied Chicken—A chicken, one ounce butter, pepper, salt and half packet of gelatin. Boil the chicken slowly until the water 1# reduced to one pint; pick the meat from the bones n fair-sized pleces, removing all gristle, skin and bone. Skim the fat from the liquor, add an ounce of butter; a little pepper and salt and half packet gelatin. Put the cutup chicken_into a mold, wet with cold water. When the gelatin has dissolved pour the liquor hot over the chicken. Turn out when cold' and serve sliced thin. 1913 The Porteous & Mitchell Co.
