A pretty gift for the engaged girl who is busily stitching on her trous- seau is a set of trousseau bands, as they are called. They are the girls' favorite color in ribbon and -are shir- red for a goodly distance of their length, leaving plain ribbon ends to be tied in a fetching bow about a pile of snowy nightgowns, chemises or petti- coats. Plain ribbon can be embroid- ered in silk to desicnate its particular purpose and an claborate set of rib- bons will include enough to bind the best sheets, pillow cases, napkins, ta- biecloths, towels and face cloths. Sui ly this is a welcome suggestion for the next linen shower. 3 Wire, crinoline and featherbone are used to extend the skirts that flare at the hips. And when they do not flare at that point they are bound to make up for the negligence by added flare at the bottom. FLOUNCE" SKIRTS. The flounced skirts are charming in thin black, whether two, three or five tiered or composed of many rows of little ruffies. A rival of these models is the petal pointed skirt which, at first plain edged, now often has its points outlined with a narrow frill, sometimes plaited, sometimes gather- ed. A charming version of this idea was seen a few days ago. . At first sight it seemed to be composed of haphazard points and friils, but there was reaily a definite scheme in the arrangement. There were three tulle skirts, one over the other, cut into different shapes. the two top edged with ruffles. Their placing was clev- er, and the dainty widening at the hips was insured by a bit of haircloth—or in braid it is now called—which was placed under the tulle. FOR DISCOLORED NECK. KEEP THE SKIN ACTIVE. As so large an amount of waste mat- ter is sent off throush the pores, the importance of keeping these minute ovtlets open and in active condition is obvious. The pressure of the clothing tends to fine these excretions to the surface, ile heat and moisture stimulate the lymphatics to al Th al hing on the ekin. Thus a > evil may ensue in | preventing the outflow of unhealthful matter, and the reabsorbing of what is *|already sent out. This shows the im- portance of the first rule of health for the skin. Take care that every por- n of the skin is purified by washing the whole body at lcast once a day. Only patience ang perservance will —_— win out in bleaching the neck to its : former “lily whitness.

The silk rags are then braided in an ordinary three d, just as the braided rag made. The brald is then back and sewed, either in a r or oblong form, around and with overhand stitches, so that face is flat and smooth. When a sufficient amount of braiding has been sewed for one side of a pillow, the opposite side is made in the same way. These two sides are then join- ed with a puffing of silk about three and one-half inches wide, which is gathered and sewed between the two sides. An excellent couch pilow can — be HEALTH AND BEAUTY. A good powder is a skin preservative and no woman need be afraid to use it, Even her prejudices may be waved away if she will reflect that it acts as a food for the pores and keeps them from filling with the dust of the street. Wash the hair as often as may be needed for cleanliness, which, as a rule, for men will be once a week and for women about half as often. Avoid using too strong soaps, strong alka- lies, such as ammonia and soda, and too hot water, as all these take out much of the natural lubricants, or ofl, of the hair and leave it dry and harsh.
