Mandarin Coats. The 'orient has crept into the wardrobe of Americans to such an. extent that American girls are now wearing mandarin coats fashioned in Pekin for street purposes. 1 One ot the most elaborate which is shown is heavily embroidered in silk and gold thread butterflies and wisteria forming the motif for the design. The buttons are of solid gold. The work manship alone on this coat is said to cost ?300 m American money. New Curtains. A new window curtain is made of Tuscan lace, embroidered in woolen flowers of hues to harmonize with the coloring of the room. The em broidery is employed as a border or in panels, according to the taste of the designer. The coloring derived from the heavy wool embroidery makes overdraperics unnecessary. A border design of roses is attractive, while , a three-panel design of old fashioned hollyhocks makes a delight ful pattern in a colonial room.

Miss Stuben, who is a talented pianist, plans to continue her study of music. , Simple Tests for Judging Worth Of Fabrics The value of a fabric is dependent on the textile fiber with which it if made. Cotton is cheap, and is therefore mixed with wool, silk or linen to produce a cheaper fabric. . It is a simple matter to determine whether a woolen fabric contains cotton. Untwist a few of the threads. A cotton fiber is rarely two inches long, while wool fibers may extend to three or more inches. Hold a fiber to a match flame. Wool bums with difficulty and emits an odor resembling that of burning horn. Cotton burns steadily with a much less distinctive odor. If a thread of the material is held in boiling water which contains a large amount of washing soda and some lime the wool becomes sticky and dissolves, while cotton remains and when washed has not lost in strength. Linen and cotton fibers are very similar, since they are both obtained from plants. Linen fabric which is suspected to contain cotton sliould be washed out, dried, soaked in olive . oil or i glycerine, and then pressed be tween blotting paper to remove the excess of oil. Linen threads appear brilliantly transparent, while , cotton remains opaque. Whitening Towels. To whiten Turkish towels that arc used daily put two tablespoons of turpentine in the boiling suae ana boil IS or 20 minutes with lid on boiler and your towels will be beauti fully white when dry.
