Everyone knows it, for at the doors of residences and boarding houses all week have stood carter's waggons and trucks piled high with the be- longings of these girls who we will miss very much and to whom we wish a happy summer. And such a collection as they have packed into their boxes! Books and frocks, their new spring hat, skates and snow- shoes, their fur coat and their year photograph. And still there is more to come for skis are to be checked or sent by express, and all sorts of odds and ends, which the trunks refuse to hold are packed into the ever ready sult case till it too, is full to over- flowing. But no one cares and they are all counting the hours till they are once more within the family cir- cle. It is worth while to go away if only for the pleasure of coming back.

That "Tut's Tomb," as the new Bank of Montreal building has been named locally, has one advantage (?) over the old banks. It will ad- mit baby carriages. Everyone doesn't know this, and' on fine afternoons the passerby might thing it was a creche from the rows of baby car- riages on the walk. It remained for one cautious mother to lift the car- riage, baby and all up the steps and through the black doors which are largely responsible for the bank's nickname, - a That old Scotland {is vivalling Egypt as a leader of fashion: Listen to this: "American stores are echo- ing the Paris craze for the tartan.

A Reader Friend has written to ask for an article on how to tell an antiqua-Oriental rug from an imita- tion. Of course the surest way is to have an expert on these rugs choose one fof you. Many of the rugs now being made in Oriental factories are "antiqued" by a process of bleaching which softens the colors, thus mak- ing it very Tifficult for the inex- perienced to detect their fraudul- ency. These imitations are also rubbed with glycerine, or with a chemical composition, to give them a silky sheen like that of an old rug. They have not the beauty or durabil- ity of a genuine antique; for, if the bleach has not been washed out thor- oughly--and it seldom has---the rug will wear through in spots, and after a few weeks' wear the glycerine gloss will disappear. Of course there are some imita- tions which are better than others, and I am a firm believer in buying a good imitation when one cannot af- ford the real thing. But one natur- ally does riot wish to buy an imita- tion for the real thing, at an extrava- wife to know the new from the really old? Here are a tew suggestions which will help her: In the first place, it pays to make a study of the texture, design and color of priceless Oriental rugs 1m museums.
