Gather, during a walk through the woods, an armful of ferns, selecting perfect ones, lay smoothly between newspapers, and put to press under a trunk. These may so remain until returning to the city. Fill rose bowls half full of sand, and stick these preserved ferns In them, placing them about your rooms, making a woodsy spot all winter. If the ferns become dusty wash gently and return to place.

An entertaining little trick can he done with two pills made of bread. One of the pills I throw away, the performer says, the other I put In my left hand, which I close. At the same moment the pill which I have thrown away will come back and join the other in the left hand. And, opening the hand, he shows the two little pills. The whole trick lies in the right hand of the performer. Taking one of the pills, he shows it between the thumb and index finger, and, under the pretext of throwing it away, slips it between the index and middle finger by a slight pressure of the thumb, opening the hand with a slight motion of throwing. Taking the second little pill, he places it apparently alone in the left hand, but in reality also the other one held between the index and middle finger of the right hand, closing it immediately. Opening the hand, he shows the two pills. After a little practice this trick can be repeated several times without fear of detection. Absent-mindeAuthorities. Lighthouse keepers on Percy island, off the coast of Queensland, in 1900, were forgotten for months by the The food government authorities. supply of Percy island is supposed to be delivered once a quarter, but no food arrived at the island after the first week in June until a British sloop chanced to pass in Octo ber. The islanders, twenty ih number, were delirious from lack of food, but managed to hail the vessel, which left behind an ample supply of provisions, and reminded the Queensland men government of the lighthouse whose existence it had forgotten. d The Butterflies. Two butterflies cut out of tissue paper fly about as if alive, set in motion by a fan. They light on the fan, play in the air, descend on a flower, in short imitate real butterflies to perfection. All that is needed to make such butterflies is colored tissue paper and a pair of scissors. Fold the paper and cut the shapes of the butterflies as shown in the circle of our cross-breedin- g d d - , g exhaust their usefulness should be carefully looked after and preserved. How to Make Sachet Bags. To make your own sachets buy the powder and sprinkle on thin cotton Inside the silk bags, or pour on It half a teaspoonful of oil of the perfume you desire, to which a few drops of glycerin are added. The glycerin keeps the perfume from evaporating. This gives a vigorous and effusive perfume, pleasant for the rooms, and the sachets to hang in the closets or on backs of chairs should always be treated in this way by perfumed oil fixed with a little glycerin. Attractive Golf Costume. Pipings have so gained in popularity that they are a feature of by far the greater number of garments or whatever sort, even appearing upon what it is the fad of the moment to call tub frocks end shirtwaists. Quite a novelty in this line are the pipings of leather and kid which are to be seen upon a few of the most exclusive models of the tailor-madstyles. Such e desirable for the moment. The edge was finished with a narrow accordeon pleating of white chiffon, sprung with a tiny ruche. The scarf which ornaments the vest and the sleeve puff were of embroidered chiffon and lace. Rings and Gloves. If you want ycur rings to last well, dontt wear them under gloves. That Is the advice of an experienced jeweler, and he goes on to say that If you decide that gloves are a necessity, then you should send your rings every six months to be overhauled. The reason for this warning is that the constant friction of gloves wears down the tiny claws of gold which hold the stones in place, the result being the very probable loss of the gems. Often a jeweler will discover a Stone to be loose when an Inexperienced person would not suspect it, and his timely intervention may prevent ones suffering the loss of a valued gem. A Fragrant Sleep.

The grass houses formerly built by the Wichita Indians of southern Oklahoma are exceedingly Interesting. The grass is gathered early in the spring, when it is yet fresh. The sod cutting usually takes place Immediately after a rain, the sod being removed to a thickness of about eight inches. Buffalo grass sod is the only kind that will answer the purpose of the builder. He commences to lay the foundation as does the stonemason, digging away the earth to a depth of about one foot. The grass portion of the chunks of sod Is laid to the outside and the house Is built to a height of twelve to fifteen feet. In the form of a pointed dome. There is no hole in the top for smoke to pass out, the latter being carried away through a pipe outside of the but. The door is usually in the south and there are no windows. Through each tuft of sod Is run a willow reed string and these strings are bound clear around the structure. The grass remains green and will grow if there is plenty of rain. It Is not at all uncommon to see the sides of these grass houses turn green as spring approaches, just as do the pastures near them. The houses are very warm In winter and cool In summer They never leak. Learn How to Breathe. ' Is possible to exercise ones whole body, to keep it strong and well, simply by breathing properly.

It Is an excellent plan to have a box for hat trimmings, In which all the millinery odds and ends left over from season to season may be kept. Fashion rotates with such unerring regularity that good bits passed one season are quite likely to be in demand after two or three have passed. Steel ornaments, for example, are in and out of vogue at intervals. If at all handsome they are expensive and well worth keeping. They may be cleaned from rust and discoloration by rubbing them with a brush dipped in paraffin oil and then in emery powder, afterward polishing with a piece of flannel or chamois.
