Lectures on modern beauty cul- ture are given at the Monkey Club, and members are also taught "dis- creet" methods of make-up. Dress- making classes, sawing and men- ding classes, cookery classes held in the kitchens of a famous hotel, house-keeping classes, and millin- ery classes are all very popular, and members make their own dance frocks for the monthly dances held under the auspices of the club, which have already led to not a few

THE CARPETING PROBLEM.

Carpoting in general depends upon the particular floor, and the average floor has cracks, splinters, and other discomforts. This usually means covering it first with lino-i loum: Whoro this is not necessary, the floor itself may be made somio play with, and it is often a pity to cover a really good parquet floor. Some people get over the difficul- ty by laying lengths of carpot on the length of the floor, but at wide in- tervals. This gives a number of

| little paths, which show the parquet between. It has a rather restless effect, and has neither the warmth of a whole carpet nor the beauty of rugs. For a long, narrow room it] has certain points.

A great test of the beauty of a rug is the shadings that appear in its texture, like shadows on a hill. Persian rugs can be used as carpets

if they are not set about spottily, and two together often make an ex- cellent and warm floor-covering. Otherwise a really big carpet, though difficult to move, is the most comfortable. There, are charming Indian varieties which do not lose their tone and which, with beige, henna, orange, green, deep blue, produce a sort of glow which is becoming to almost any furniture.

MILIONERY ITEMS.

In a manner of speaking, there are millinery openings in Parla every week; in fact, the two days' interim between one fifting and the next at great modistes, such as Re- boux, Agnes and Talbot, generally suffices for the creation of a num ber of new models.
