The New Bridal Fan. At a receni New York society wed ding a decided novelty was in evi dence. Instead of the orthodox bou quet of orange blossoms or white and silver prayer book, the bride carried a fan of costly point lace, which was attached to her wrist by means of a narrow white satiti ribbon. Her long nnd narrow point applique veil was so arranged as to conceal little of her hair. The top was twisted in a loose fold, which was arranged in two loops, one much lower than the other, at the side of her moderately high coiffure. A very long and full spray of orange blossoms was fastened at the left of the tulle loops and trailed almost to her shoulder. A stil! larger spray was used on the corsage. A Smart Storm Coat. H iln coats have.become so general as to bo counted among the necessi ties of life. This one is smart at the same time that it serves its purpose well and is suited to all the many wat erproof materials In vogue. As shown, L-----1 4641 Iw.a Coat, 32 to 40 bust. — Design by May Manton. however, it is made of Oxford crav enette stitched, and is trimmed with straps of the same held by bone but tons. The coat is loose and simple at the same time that it is shapely and includes sleeves that can be slipped on aud off with ease. The shoulder cape means warmth as well as style and the fitter collar provides both comfort and protection.

If you allow them to get very dirty, home j cleaning is seldom a success: but , treated in this way they will look nice for quite a long time It lace is ironed directly after wash ing. first under a cloth, finishing off with nothing between it and the iron, there is no need to starch it. Ironing while wet gives it just the right amount of stiffness. After baking a cake stand the tin directly you take It from tlie oven on a cloth which has been wrung out of hot water, heave a few minutes, and then turn out. The cake will come out without any trouble. When furnishing use the same pat tern carpet in all bed rooms; then, when the carpets begin to wear, or you move to another house, the best part of one or two can be Joined to gether. and will make quite a present able carpet. Inexpznsive Bath Robes. Pretty wash flannels in pink or blue are just the tiling for bath gowns. Tney are warm and comfortable for room wear and save a more elaborate gown, says the Philadelphia Bulletin. I For ohe of average height six yards is enough, and as they need no trimming the cost of the gown is trifling. Cut in three widths, one in back or two in front: hem, and mount on a double yoke, finishing the neck with a wide turnover collar. Gather the full sleeves into a wristband, and stitch hems, ruffs and collar. Put a big square outside pocket on the left front, and fasten the garment with pearl buttons. Tea Punch. Make a strong infusion of tea, pour ing a quart of boiling water over a tablespoonful of Ceylon or English nreakfast tea and letting it stand un til cold. Strain and add to the follow lowing mixture: The juice of three lemons and the juice of three oranges, the pulp and juice of a shredded pine apples and one pint of sugar. When ♦ lie sugar is entirely dissolved add one quart apollinaris anti one box fresh strawberries or raspberries, used whole. Pour over a ldock of ice in the punch bowl. A cupful of claret and a tablespoonful of curacoa may be added if desired. Contrc La Migraine. A delightful essence to inhale when suffering from headache is composed ot one drachm of oil of lavender, one ounce lump camphor, three ounces li quid ammonia and one pint alcohol. Dissolve and bottle. Nervous head aches are often relieved by applying towels wrung out of hot water to the face and head. Use as hot water as can be borne. Milliners’ Ban on the Veil. It will not do for the pretty girl to hide her passe hat under an accumula tion of gauze veilings any longer. The milliners have found her out. In con vention assembled they have de nounced the veil and jeered at the woman who wears it. It gives too much opportunity to economical wom en to look smart at a trifling expense A SMART AFTERNOON BLOUSE. j| / .. . .

Hunt, an 01 fleer of the National Milliners' assn cfation, says: “It is a dangerou fashion, a style which puts money h the pockets of the veil makers bu takes it out of ours. Many womei conceal old hats under fluffy masse: of brown veiling and then forego tin pleasures of a new hat. We must ex pose this practice.'’ "a Princess Wrapper. No other garment yet devisee means the comfort and relaxation o: the well-made morning gown. This 45G6 Princess Wrapper, 32 to42 bust. —Design by May Mariton. excellent, model is well adapted to its use and is suited to many materials. It also can be made either high or with a square neck. As illustrated it is made of blue challie dotted with black, the yoke being of ecru lace and the trimming black and white braid. The wrapper combines lose fronts with a fitted back, but is made over a fitted front lining that means perfect neatness. The pointed yoke with the sleeve caps give the breadth of shoul der that is so fashionable, but the square yoke can be substituted and the sleeve caps omitted if preferred. To make the wrapper for a woman of medium size will be required lll,£ yards 27 or 7 yards 44 inches wide, with % yard of all-over lace. A May Manton pattern No. 4565, sizes 32 to 42, will be mailed to any address on receipt of ten cents. I 5 Heavy white stitchings are always smart on black. Fur scarfs are broader and longer than last year. Shirrings form girdle effects on many pretty frocks. White and pale colored zibelines are used for dressy gowns. The average woman looks host In a fine net veil without spots. Have two or three sets of lingerie sleeve ruffles for the one gown. Insect forms of Jeweled gunmetal are worn at corsage and la coiffure. Safety lies halfway between a droop ing blouse and a tight-fitting bodice. Yoke and sleeves of gold net add a rich finish to the white evening gown. Mirror velvets are the lightest and best fitted for tucking and shirring conceits. Most women are at their best In the dainty fluffy things they call “home gowns.” For the street there is the coat and skirt costume of navy blue velvet in walking length. To Cook Prunes. When prunes are served they should fall apart from the stones and be very tender. In order that the prunes should reach the perfection of tender ness it is better to soak them In.cold water for twenty-four hours before cooking. First they should be washed thoroughly In scalding, water; then put to soak. After the soaking they may be boiled with sugar—not too much—or they may be soaked a sec ond twenty-four hours In milk and then! served with honey. Honey is always; better with cream than sugar Is.

Mr. Albert Lietzman, 1596 Milwaukee Avenue, Chicago, 111., writes: "I am only too glad to inform you that I am feeling splendid and have never felt better in my life. Through the advice of a friend I tried Peruna, and am glad to say it cured me to perfection. I began to tell a friend about Peruna the other day and I had no sooner commenced than he told me his folks have kept Peruna in the house for the last five years. 1 am sure I wouldn't I be without it.

Croup, capillary bronchitis, and articu lar rheumatism are the special banes of childhood. These all alike resul. from catching cold. One child catches cold and scares its mother into hysterics by having croup in the dead of night. Another child catches cold, develops a stubborn cough that will not yield to ordi nary remedies. The parents are filled with forbodings. Still another child catches cold and de velops that most fatal malady of childhood, capillary bronchitis. The doctor is called, pronounces the case pneumonia, anti if the child is luckv enough to live it has devel oped weak lungs from which it may never recover. And yet another child catches cold and articular rheumatism is the result. Ankles knees, wrists and elbows liecome suddenly swollen and painful. A long disastrous ill ness follows. The child may live and be come com alescent, a miserable invalid of valvular disease of the heart. All these mishaps are the direct result of neglected cold, reruoa is the safeguard of the fam ily. If a child catches cold, I’eruna should be used immediately. A few doses ot I’eruna and a child’s cold is gone. The apprehension of the parent* dee away. The household is free'from fear once more.
