Since then it has been danced in
all the smart ballroarps in the West End.
The announcement that there are to be no new dances was made by the Board of Control of Ballroom Dancing, an organisation composed exclusively of London and pro- vincial dance teachers:
The Board of Control, in short, has nothing new to offer.
It has long been evident that amateurs have been dancing in the middle of a, bankrupt ballroom bereft of new ideas.
WINDOWS.
If living by the sea it is wise to do with the minimum of curtains and to let those be plain and wash- able. If you change the curtains washed, frequently, have them ironed and properly dry" before storing in cupboards, they will not be attacked by mildew,

SHADES WITHOUT CHAINS,
The charm of some of the new. and shallow lamp shades is that they are so easily adjusted. For instance, if the shade is intended for a ceiling light, then the flexible wire inside the shade allows for the lamp to be inserted, the bulb pro- tecting a little into the aperture in the centre of the large parchment | circle. The shade, can be tilted a little--this is useful on a standard lamp. No chains or special fittings are required because the shade clings to the lamp; so, you see, it is in economical proposition.
TROUSSEAU SECRETS.
Although the majority of brides choose trousseaux of the utmos simplicity, individuality is sought, and one young bride has found it in painted material. She has er- dered a pyjamas suit in natural- coloured shantung, a scroll design being starcilled in blues, mauves, and reds, the sort of colour com- bination seen in Russian, embroi. dovy. The top of the pyjamas, is a jumper, long for the present fashion, but slim. The trouser lega viden out till each leg is almost the width of the jumper itself.
LITERATURE.
Writing is not literature unless it gives to the reader a pleasure, which arises not only from the things aid but from the way in which they are said, and that plea Bure is only given when the words are carefully or curiously or beau- tifully put together, into sentences.
Contrasting colours and unique designs form the keyuote of the group of smart bathing costumes.

For Falling Ash.
After the carpets have been clean- ed, it is discouraging to see tobacco ush spilt all over them. Everyone knows how easy this happens unless ashtrays are large, heavily, weighed and therefore ugly.
There are now ash-containers that are pieces of furniture in them- selves and these can be painted to any colour, however delicate. Owing to some special contrivance with the balanco, it le impossible for them to tip over and spill. The ash need never be in sight, because with most of these containers the ash falls down a long, hollow stem to the base, where any lighted ends bo- come extinguished instantly.

tea with a tray or waggon when the door is sure to bang? It is the soxt of thing that not only destroys dignity but is also embarrassing to the well-ordered atmosphere of the proceedings. The remedy lies in a special little door stop that is sim plicity itself. The merest touch of the foot suffices to keep the door in its place, whether wide open, half closed, or only a little ajar.
Just Little Things. Sunday sermons tell us that life dwells most with little things, and that is true, too, of domestic life. Such a simple thing as the corner of a carpet or mat not being fasten- ed securely, seems very trival, yet how it irritates the temper, to say nothing of danger to the poor un- fortunate who ripe, and whose sprinted ligaments may never per- fectly right themselves again!
There is a spring button. elip fastener, sold for the special pur pose of fastening mata and 'in all seriousness, this may be the stitch that saves, fi not aine lives, at least nine teminers!

A PICNIC NOTION.
original and -Buccessful method of making egg sandwiches for plenica is to scramble the eggs inatead of boiling them. Made this way the sandwiches are both easier to handle at the picnic and far more quickly made in preparation. Allow the eggs to cool after scrambling, and then spread evenly on bread and butter. The sandwiches be made the night before the picnic, and, provided they are wrapped in a cloth wrung perfectly dry in cold water, they will remain beautifully moist. An excellent Idea is to wrap the sandwiches in fresh let- tuce leaves and to eat the two together.
