When combined with Swiss the ribbon Is usually flowered and in delicate china tones, and not uncommonly with this material, cam- bric or lawn embroidery and yellow valen- clennes lace will be empioyed as well. The embroldery, generally In the form of entre deux, is let in the Swiss, and is edged each side with tiny ruches of the lace.

There are more ways thaw one of sccuring office. P Ex-Queen Liliuokalanl of Hawaii Is said to have proposed marriage to the crown prince of Japan. The proposal was politely declined because Mrs. Dominls, as she is now called, is old enough to be the prince’s grandmother. Three hundred young Catholic women of Danbury, Conn., have formed a solemn league and covenant that they will not marry any man who drinks intoxicating liquors, a de- termination worthy of respect, but which they are not all likely to adhere to. import to the fair the sides e. bad the taffeta ribbon put on in a unique fashion. The organdie was a pale apple green, and the gored skirt had a crimped flounce headed at Intervals by va rosettes in cr m velenclennes lace; from these the ribbon, apple green flowered with pink wild roses, looped up in garlands, and with this adorable jupe a sort of Marie Antolnette fichu in cream silk mull elabor- ately trimmed with the lace was worn. The fichu was so large that it came well down over the shoulders, showing the bu of the sleeve low on the arm, floating streamers of the ribbon heing knotted at the bust with the long scarf ends. However, all the organdies are not ribbon- trimmed, as may be seen here in the two designs shown in the double-column picture. Either may be accepted as a good model for a modest garden party costume, and though both are of a simplicity bordering on plain- ness, with silk linings and colors carefully chosen, they can be made very elegant. ELEGANT COSTUMES. In the original the dainty toilet with the flowered flounce, which is made graceful by belng shorter in front than at the back, was in yellow, the flowers of the figured portion tinging on brown. The second gown, is of flame red organdi over black silk, with black footing let in and | a crush collar and belt with black bow of flame red velvet. The beautiful dull green organdie already mentioned forms the plain portion of the costume with the long, lacelike pancls on the skirt.

To properly prepare a room for sweeping Is as distinct an act In itself as to sweep It afterwards. First provide yourself with several covers and dusters. A good stiff broom, a small switch broom, a dustpan and a large box, or a new coal scuttle in which to put the refuse. First have the right sort of dusters and covers, the best are made of very cheap calica, Make each cover of three breadths of calico, cut a trifle over three yards long, sew them together and put a kem an fnch wide on either end. Do not use them until they have been washed and ironed. Make the dusters about a yard long of one breadth of the calico, and hem them at each end These, with proper care, ought to last for Carefully dust each plece of furniture iw the room that is light enough to move out | into the hall or adjoining room. Open the | window and shake out your duster very often d it well out of the window, so that the dust may not blow back, fon in dust we find | our greatest enemies to health. When you Nave taken out ajl the chairs, then begin with the ornaments. If they are of glass look them over-carefully to ses if they need washing—for nothing is so absolutely de- testable as soiled ornaments of any kind. If you have small draperies of any kind, shake them thoroughly out of the window and fold them and put them in a drawer or out of the room entirely. t take the mattresses oft the bed—you will previously have folded and taken out all the bed cloth- ing—and carry them ato the air and give | them a thorough brushing.

' On the other hand, the modern dress is necessarily out of style in stx months, then for a period the picture must look beh! nd the age.

Tho miniature has been once more revived and most bewitching are the modern bell and heauties when transferred to two iuches of ivory and set In a rim of jewels. This is a branch of portrait painting calling for a good mintature. Indeed, portralt painting In all its departments is the most lucrative art work just now. The costuming for a miniature is always as eftective as possible, jewels and white should- ers being well in evidence. A much favored stylo Is a garment of ermine or Russian sable fur falling away from a bare neck; an- other, the short-waisted decollete corsage a la Empress Josephine or Madame Recamler. A new and marvelously cheap process com- bining the accuracy of photography and the artistic qualities of miniature painting Is that of throwing the photograph on a bit of fine canvass five or six inches square and delicately painting in the face of the sub ject, which makes an exact and charming likeness. In framing the portrait or miniature much depends on the manner of picture.
