Useful Window Desks.
One of the most convenient and alto-
gether satisfactory contrlvancos quite in
the power of a woman to manipulate is a
window dl'lik.
Take a b: lord about 15 inches wide and
saw it the length of the window sill. Put
small iron hinges on it and screw it to
the sill, so that it can hang down against
the under wall when desirable.
Tack a narrow strip of wood under the
board, near the front edge. floating on
the floor and wedged under this cleatthcre
is a prop of planed wood, slander and neat
looking. You can put a heading amund
the been), with small brads, and stain it
all cherry or some other color.
The sill holds pens, pencils and ink-
stands, and a largo blotter laid on the
board is a most desirable writing pad.
This idea comes from an art student in
Paris who dotcs on her window desk.
it will he found useful in the nursery as
a place for pasting pictures, drawings,
oto., and when done with can be swung
down and out of the way.
A Girl's Best Motto.
“With the body uncured for it does not
seem as if the mind could be in good or-
der," writes Ruth Ashmore in an earnest
discussion of "The Physical Life of a
Girl" in The Ladles' Home Journal. And
surely when one has bad thoughts and bad
manners the body will wane to ho beauti-
ful. The host motto for you totake in
regard to your body is, "Boolean."
Many of us are unhappily handicapped
from birth by ill health. Then all that
we can do is to try to keep aswcllns
possible and to determine that the weak-
ness of the body shall not be reflected
upon the mind; when “one'a back is
bad and one's logs are queer." than to
make an effort to forget this and to fill
the mind so full of checrfulncss that tho
locker on will lit‘llt‘l'l' one beautiful in the
greatest heroism. My dear girl, trike care
of yourself. Try to keep well and cheer-
ful. Few people die from overwork,
Many lose their gmd looks from idleness
and sulklnoss.

ABllllT BLACK SILKS.
There is no fabric that is so genteel, so dressy and so service-
able as black silk of good quality, nor is there any that calls for
more care in the buying. As there are very few who can distin-
guish the difference between agood and an inferior black silk it will
doubtless be acceptable to give a few hints about what we have
to offer in fills line. in the first place never be beguiled into buy-
ingachcap black silk, but on the other hand costliness is no
guarantee of real value, as it should be remembered that the re-
quisite qualities of good silk are strength, smoothness, lustre,
richness and lightness, no matter how thick the material. Now
we are agents for the celebrated linskel Silk Co’s Silk, which
possesses all of these qualities besides being fully warranted‘
in our assortment will be found the old reliable gros grain in
three qualities; also Armour, Moire and Sarah from $1 to 81.60
per yard, and should [you contciiiplato buying a now sill: dress
or need 0. short length for triiriming, we trust you will examine
