The first, and most important reason is thai it will cause women to lake more interest in the school. And w hen once I hey are interested I hey will actpiaiut themselves with the workings thereof. They will heller iindersland what the teacher and child has lo contend with ami he more capable of ad visins san. ly and wisely when the child conies home with his labs of woe. It. is very unnatural for man or woman I'o be interested in a subject of which they have no part.

The woman who plays cards or who has friends who play is interested in making linen covers for card tables These may be hemstitched or scalloped and cither initialed or numbered on one Fide of the corner so that the mark sinus on top of the table, but yet is not in tlie way of the players. These initials or numbers are work ed in hand embroidery ami often rep resent considerable labor. They should measure about three inches. On white linen the markings look better worked in white mercerized cotton, but on tan linen, which many people prefer be cause it docs not soil so readily, col ored embroidery gives a most artistic Gnisb. Shades of delft blue, greens and golden browns all show off well on the tan linen. A pretty set prepared as a gift for a linen wedumg anniversary consist ed of four cloths marked 1, 2. 3 and 4. The numbers were quite large and fat and were filled in entirely with French knots of a rather light delft blue outlined around tlie edge with a darker thread. The cloths. wlacii were tan. hemstitched, were folded into triangles with the embroid ered numbers in the apex. Put togeth er in a box. they formed a square (fit ted into each other with the numbers toward the center): then they M ere held in place by delft ribbon meeting in the center with a bow of many loops. that it is impossible to lae;r a palm in the ordinary steam heated apartment. The remedy all lies in its watering. Once a week the leaves should be sponged off with lukev. arm water. t' which a little miik has been added. Once a week also the plant slini'd be placed for two hours in enough lukewarm water to cover the pot en tirely. This is the right way to water palms, and it will be found that they thrive under the treatment. How to Remove the Disfiguring Shine.

Did you ever get a note in school? from a boy V from a big boy? 1 sup pose there are other experiences in life that are comparable to this, but certainly there is nothing clso at that time which combines the same ele ments dramatic, embarrassing, grati fying, triuniplfant. delicious, queer. Not that there was anything in such a note tic? outside, as the misshe lirst came to view, was much more thrill ing than the contents. Hut the very sight of it pencilled on rough bluish scratch paper, and ragged edged and rumpled as it was flipped acioss an intervening space r offered slyly behind a geography or dropped on the desk as the writer went up to the A spelling class, gave a sensation not to be duplicated in any later years. The contents. 1 regret to say, were insignificant, negligible. It is to be hoped that the big boy learned more about the art in time. I'.ut the mere fact of getting such a note, of having it written to yourself, of foTecasting the contents, of having the other girls see you get it. all that in addition to the exciting fear that the teacher might see once she made a girl read a note out lout I filled the moment with peculiar emotion.
