GAS STOVES.

Fireplaces of Dutch tiles are to be found in most up-to-date horses, and they are justly popular, since not only are they beautiful and colourful, but they eliminate the unpleasant task of grate cleaning, Frequently, however, they are used in conjuction with gas or electric when the combination of

The berthe of old gold net, edged with fine lace and fastened with a ribbon roselte, is charm- inn: so is the gold wig, though this is, of course, a matter of preference. Quite the latest thing in seal decorations for evening, frocks is a ceremonial affair. It is a kind of alliance of the sash worn by diplomats, and the fashionable bunched bow worn at the side of a froble. The broad ribbon (with coloured stripey) is crossed over the left shoulder from the back of the waist to the right hip, where it is manipulated into a huge bow with long ends that reach the hem, or even below it.

NEW PROFESSION FOR

WOMEN.

Furniture painting for women is, possibly, a new profession. In a top room in Hazlitt's old house in Sobo the other day I discovered a young girl busily painting furni- ture. This early oighteenth- century house has been restored and filled with interesting anti- ques. It was here that William Hazlitt, the great essayist and critic, spent part of his life and where he died.

"I have always had a love for drawing and painting in all its branthes," said the young artist. "This I must have inherited from my father, who all his life has spent much time as a designer in various branches of decorative art, and some years ago, seeing that I had a certain aptitude for such work, he encouraged me in those forms of it that are applicable to his own calling, such as painting all sorts of furniture, panels, and friezes.
