eg A id Ea A little Japanese lady, with little Japanese past, was introduced to us at Daly's Theatre last night, We have had ail sorts of ladies with pasts this sea- son, but Mr. Daly has only just turned on the Japanese article. Perhaps he trembled a bit, for even Japanese ladies with pasts are naughty, don't you know, and Mr. Daly has to be so careful, bless your heart, for his patrons are sensitive as plants. You remember when he pro- duced “L'Enfant Prodigue.” that he had to marry Merrot, because—because (et me look Into your eyes, mother dear) love without a wedding ring would have emptied his theatre. Now, Heart of Ruby was quite naugh- ty. She lived in Yeddo, which, as you know, 1s the chief city of Japan. (See gazetteer). She was infatuated with Lord Yamato, who was married, or—as Sa rah Jane would say—was married man.” (I love that expression, " He ts married man,” because It shows #0 clearly that he fs not a married woman). Heart of Ruby didn’t care, though. She t to his house and insisted upon be- Ing installed there. Yes, she did, the bold hussy.

Melba does not train a does uillian Russell to keep her avoirdupois within bounds, She eats wishes and drinks what taste dictates, and does not exercise saye when the what she idea selzes upon her. Then she drives or rides, Her method for keeping down her weight is to take cold baths thrice a day, and la belle Melba plunges into her big marble tub faithfully three times a day, and so keeps within the grace- ful limits which roles such as Juliette and Marguerite demand. History of Hoopskirts, Hoops were worn in the reign of Queen Elizabeth, and with interregnums down to the early portion of George IIL's reign, though, of course, in all that long period they much altered their appearance and thelr construction, and also their size, In 1860 they were oval In form, while the pocket hoop was in fact two hoops—one worn on each hip, united with a tape which passed around the waist. They were often advertised as being made of cane, and Fairholt tells us that in 1737 a folding hoop was introduced, so that sedan chairs and@ carriages might be entered easily. The dersses of ladies in the reign of James 1. could be worn over hoops, or @ French lady's dress in the reign of Henry T. would also be suitable. When crinolines were last worn, thirty or forty years ago, the skirts were made very full and quite plain, with tight-fitting bodices, tight sleeves at the shoulder, and wider at the wrist. To Prevent Water Pipes Freesin, Down in the cellar you will find spig- ots at the end of each pipe, where the water can be completely shyt off. You know that when a pipe “bursts” it is be- cause the water in {t has frogen, and of course expanded in the freeging and broken the pipe at the weakest point, so that if the water is shut off alto= gether, there is nothing to freeze. Only do that, however, when you think the frost Is going to be severe, Ordinarily, Just let the water “drip” a little, be- cause running water is less apt to freeze, and if It does, the slightly open faucet gives it room to expand, The New Wall Papera, For persons who like much color om their walls, there are American papers fully as beautiful as the imported, Among new patterns are buttercups on blue grounds and pink on cream, In some cases narrow bands are run along the frieze and passed down every corner, making of each wall a single Panel. Ingrain papers are still much in vogue, especially in rooms where they are not Hable to soil readily. Ingraine stamped with one shade either a little deeper or a little lighter than the ground are extremely fine, Salted Peanuts.
