The simplest and best way to care for a veil Is to stretch one end of It as soon as taken from the hit, for It is honed 'hat tho hat is always kept In a largo pasteboard box when not worn. A small milcr. coveted with wadding and then with silk Is often recommended, but it Is Ilnt a good plan to roll several veils to- get her or to bother with a roll for each veil, The lneo mesh holds much dust anil a black veil mnv soil a light one, although It ought to ho cloan, nnd then 'he particular veil you need is sure to 1"' the under one. A long corset box Jin a good receptacle for veils rolled loosely as described, each by itself. BANANA SIIOB POLISH. Tan shoes may bo kept tidy by the use of a buiana skin.

It Is not an unpleasant thing for "0 Parisian to draw eontlnent-wl.le cuclu sons ns to the American char.n ter and American morals, one writer 1 m an lcle entitled "Chaste Amerl, 1" thinks that the loading of the Thaw testimony mav possiWy modify the -entlnert of "merciful pity'' ns to Parls.-that "nod ern Babylon."
