New York City.?Guimpes of Idee,
tucking and similar materials have
become as essential to the wardrobe
of the grown-up as to that of the
woman's guimpe.
child. Innumerable blouses require
them, and, with their aid, it is possible
to make the same bouice high or '
decoillete as required. The excellent
May Manton model shown is perfect- '
ly adapted to its purpose, and at the 1
6ame time can be made the foundation
for any one of the fashionable
waists that close at the back. As ]
shown, yoke and sleeves are of batisto ,
lace, the body portion of nanisock; j
but any suitable material can be sub- (
stituted when a guimpe is desired, and ,
various combinations might be suggested
for entire waists. Plisse chif

a yoke, is chancing. A yoke of tuck- ,
ing with lower portion of batiste,'and j
lace applique between, is exceeding- j
ly handsome, and similar suggestions \
might be made by the score.
The gulmpe is cut with front and
back only, the fitting being accomplished
by means of shoulder and un- 1
der-arm seams. The yoking material 1
is faced in, to square or round depth, *
as preferred, and the foundation is 1
drawn down in gathers at the waist l
line. When a transparent effect is de- 1
eired the material beneath the yoke <
can be cut away. The sleeves are of I
MISSES' AND GII
bishop style and the neck is finished ^
with a regulation stock. 1
To cut this guimpe for a woman of t
medium size, two and a half yards of ?
material thirty-two inches wide will <
bp required, or one and seven-eight i
yards of all-over lace eighteen inches s
wide, and seven-eight yards thirty-two 1
inches wide, to make as illustrated. ]
I
Misses' and Girln* Wrapper. <
A tasteful wrapper, or lounging ,
robe, that can be slipped on in her t
own room and be worn during the
hours of privacy and rest is essential <
to the comfort of the growing girl as (
It is to that of her elders. The taste- (
ful garment illustrated in the large ,
drawing exactly fills the need and is ,
absolutely simple at the same time i
that it is made on graceful lines. The ,
model designed by May Manton is
made from dimity, showing pink spots
on a white ground, but all washable
materials uie euiuiuie us >ven us ugucweight
flannels and flannelette for the
cooler days. The fronts are slightly ,
full at the neck and widen out to
form the skirt portion. The back is ,
full at the neck and drawn in with
gathers at the waist line, below
which point it falls in graceful folds. .
The neck is finished with a deep turn^
over collar and the sleeves are in
bishop style. At the waist is a ribbon
that is tied slightly toward the left
side and holds the fulness in place.
To cut this wrapper for a. girl twelve
years of age, six yards of material
twenty-seven inches wide, four and
three-quarter yards thirty-two inches
wide, or four and a quarter yards
forty-four inches wide, will be required.
Xorel Adornment For Cufli.
A novel adornment fo.- cuffs and revers
of dressy toilets consists in covering
tliem with embroidery forming
part of Chinese garments. The embroidery
is not cut out and appliqued,
but pieces of the garment itself where
the embroidery shows are cut lnt3
the required shape, and form tlie entire
revers. To produce the desired
effect contrasting colors are employed,
the embroidered designs appearing In
various shades on a ground of black,
white, dark blue or brick red.
A Tucked Tnllf Facing.

file. It so happens thai tlie brim is
raised in front toward the left side. So
over the left temple a bunch of primroses
nestles under the brim. The
hat is faced all around -with tulle ar- j
ranged in tucks. The tucking is graduated
so it looks very well. A wide
band of blac* velvet ribbon is passed
about the crown and tied with a few
loops and ends, wired to serve as an
upright at the left, where it aasfjs
the upturned brim.
A Pretty Idea.
A pretty idea is shown in a narrow
vest of pale-colored clotb. It is pierced
with three eyelets on either side as
big as a nickel and heavily wrought in
silk. Through these openings inchwide
ribbon is laced, which holds the
front together. The ends are tied and
fall over the skirt. Liberty gauze or
chiffon scarfs are fastened at one side

The "L'Alclon" Hairpin.
"L'Aiglon" pins for tbe hair, which
come in different designs, have the pin
part double like a hairpin. It is pressed
together before being slipped into the
catch at the end, and, springing out,
the pressure holds i* secure.

Black and White Effects.
Black and white effects are quite as
Jopiinant as ever In the season's fashons,

duck, lineu, pique and all the
fashionable materials are equally appropriate.
The skirt is cut in five 1
;ores and is laid in an inverted pleat
it the back, an adjustment that
means graceful folds at the lower portion
and perfect freedom of movement.
When desired, the flounce can be
emitted and an underfacing, stitched

fits to a aicety and is cut in becoming
curves at the upper edge. The
shoulder straps are attached to the 1
back and button over on the fronts,
serving to keep the bodice smooth,
but if preferred the skirt can be made
without the straps, the bodice portion
being fitted snugly enough to retain
its position.

"A friend of mine," says a Correspondent
of the Sydney (N. S. W.) Bulletin,
"noticed near his camp a trap
door spider run in front of him and \
pop into its hole, pulling the 'lid' down
as it disappeared. The lid seemed so
neat and perfect a circle that the man |
stooped to examine it. and found, to j
his astonishment, that, it was a sixpence.
There was nothing but silk ,
thread covering the top of the coin, but \
underneatth mud and silk thread were ^
coated on and shaped convex (as usu- '
al). The coin had probably been swept <
out of the tent with rubbish," says R. \
I. Pocock, commenting on this in Na- )
ture. tl<l. ^
Dr. Sorby, the well-known scientist, ,
had a wonderful sapphire, by means -i
of which he discovered the nature of \
the liquid that is sometimes found <
in the cavity of a crystal. The sapphire ,
had a tube-shaped cavity about a quar- <
ter of an inch in length and an elgh- j
teeuth of an inch in diameter, partly *
filled with liquid. Its form suggested
that it might be used as a natural ther- (
mometer, and the doctor found that, j
at fifty degrees Fahrenheit, the liquid
half-filled the cavity, and completely .
filled it at eighty degrees. A study of (
the rate of expansion led him to tho ,
conclusion that the liquid must be car- ,
bonic acid. \

A new antiseptic substance of con'
siderable promise was recently de- ,
scribed at the French Academy. It "
has the rather formidable name of
mercujy-diphenoldisulphonate of sodi- ,
um. It is a white amorphous powder,
very soluble in water and containing 1
about forty per cent, of mercury. It *
has no irritating action on the skin
and does not coagulate albumen, but
seems nevertheless to retain all of the s
antiseptic qualities of its constituents.
Solutions of 1-1000 strength (one part e
in 1000 parts of water) are strongly c
antiseptic, and when the strength is
nnli? 1-inflfln hnntorinl o-iwivth 1c mnrlf. S
edly retarded. Solutions of 1-2000
strength prevent putrefaction in blood t
or bouillon solutions. The fact that ?
It does notcoagulate almnminous sub- 1
stances is an important quality, as it
is thus possible to use the solution bypodermieally.
t
Many discoveries of interest werfc ]
made during the survey of the bed of c
the Pacific by the Nero, a vessel be- t
loDging to the United States Navy. The j
object of the survey was to locate a (
route for a cable, and a map was made i
of the - ocean bed from California to <
Japan. The discovery that will attract ?
the most attention, perhaps, is the j
greatest known ocean depth?fifty-two c
hundred and sixty-nine fathoms, near- %
ly six-miles. This was found a short j
distance east of the island of Guam. ^
All the way from Hawaii to the Mid- p
way Islands the soundings showed c
that the bottom is a level plain of soft ;
mud, at an average depth of twenty- ;
seven hundred fathoms. Between the
Midway Islands and Guam is another
level plain, broken here and there by
low mountain ranges, and between a
Guam and Yokohama is a great peak c
that rises almost to the surface. t

In his attitude toward the daily presB !,
Lord Kelvin presents a curious con- ^
trast to Bishop Creighton, whose ignorance
of journalism has been re- ?
ferred to in this column. To an inter- j
viewer who asked him whether he
read a great deal Lord Kelvin a little t
while ago made the rather startling
reply that he had not read a book for ?
thirty years. "I read nothing but the j
daily papers. Well, perhaps that is an
overstatement; it may not be thirty
years, but it is a long time. Of course,
I am continually referring to books,
but I have not the time for steady
reading; except the daily papers, and
I feel especially bound in crises of our
history to study the course of events."
Compare this with Mr. Balfour's
statement: "I never read the papers!"

TeRtlng Fireproof Stairs For Flata<
In Frankfort, Germany, official tests
have been made of fireproof stairs for
apartment houses. Fires fed with a
material which gave forth an intense
heat were built in the yard of one of
the fire department houses, and over
these tires the stairs were placed. The
longest resistance was shown by the
stairs which had a covering of plaster,
and it was found that they could be
used twenty-five minutes after the fire
was started. The stairs covered with
fireproof paint were made of so many
different materials and of such varying
strength that no definite results
could be arrived at, but they were
serviceable after five or ten minutes
in the heat. Of the stairs of wood
and not covered with fireproof paint,
thos-'e of cak withstood the lire the
longest.

The other day an old woman bonncen
into a city office with a notification
that had been sent to her to the effect
that a quarter's rates on some propert
of hers were due.
She asserted she had paid them. A
clerk got out the books to prove that
she had not. and suggested that she
had made a mistake. She still declared,
however, that she had paid.
"Don't you ever make mistakes?"
she inquired.
The clerk assured her that he did
not. and jokingly added:
"The only mistake I ever made "was
when I got married.''
She looked at him a moment and
then said:
' "No: your wife made that mistake."
