THE GAZETTE
For Hot Days
I
JUST the newest and loveliest things in millinery for the all too brief midsummer have been placed before the fascinated eyes of the devotee to outdoors and fashion. Black and white or the coldest of colors, lace and more lace, these are the paramount ideas that the modistes have put into *Gumphs of execution*. Nothing was ever imagined for the dog days, lovelier than the hat of white chip in which the contour of the brim is outlined with two rolled folds of black velvet placed on the under side. About the crown are set large roses made of fine princess lace and set in dark green foliage. These flowers of lace are exquisite. So far the lily and rose have been made, and no other blossoms can be more beautiful than they. Wide Val edging for the roses and all-over patterns, for the lilies are destined to be the favorite, but if one possesses a long purse or has some yards of old lace, please imagine roses made of a duchess lace! The finest of silk-covered wire, has to be sewed in to hold the petals or simulated petals in place. For the roses, a wreath can be managed without cutting the lace but for lilies the petals
SINCE 1890
A simple, semi-princess dress is shown here, that is a style specially suited to linen. The panel front that extends the whole length is attached to the sides by wide wrapped seams. The back is not a panel, but the bodice and skirt have slight fulness at waist. The turn-over collar and cuffs are of embroidered lawn. Materials required: 6 yards 40 inches wide.
Bracelets Over Gloves
Few women seem to realize that bracelets over gloves are almost or quite as bad as rings over gloves. If one wears a bracelet with long gloves at all it should be worn under them; but if possible it should not be worn.
M.
must be shaped; unless each is made separately by a lacemaker. No one will be so foolish as to cut up fine hand-made laces. Lillies, therefore, are destined to be made of the best machine made laces. But, as this season will not see the last of the lace flowers, it is worth while to make separate petals of reenklance of other fine lace, for those who know how.
Numbers of hats in hair braid or hemp or fine chip are overlaid with wide chantilly lace. Black over white chip or white over black, is all there is to tell. Plumes, pompons and aigrettes finish them; these, too, in black or white.
The small drooping brim round hat continues the favorite, for motoring and general wear when the matter of protection claims the first attention. Black and white striped ribbon and button roses, made of straw like that in the hat, leave nothing to be desired for such a model. In the picture the hat is of silver-blue straw, the flowers of the same, and a long adjustible vell of white chiffon is an accessory to be put on and off at pleasure.
GLOVES MATCH THE COSTUME.
No More White Ones Are Worn, and Where They Seem Necessary Cream Color is Used.
No more white gloves! Gloves match the costume, or where they ought to be white, according to all social canons, they are cream. Suede slippers, too, match the costume, and the stockings with them are—flesh colored!
Vanity bags of gold clasp now like a flat purse. The meshed bags are no longer plain, but are in two metals—gold and gunmetal, or exidized silver and copper—interwoven in a quaint pattern.
Tortoise-shell is made up into everything, from powder cases to umbrella handles; and there is a great deal of gunmetal and jet seen, owing to the king's death and the public mourning that Paris seems to have assumed with England.
For the same reason, orchids, real and artificial, are on view everywhere, since they were Edward's favorite flower.
Finally, wooden beads. The fad has become a craze, and wooden beads, in black and colors, are as thick as locusts during the plague in Egypt.
Silk : Fishnet
If in your shopping tours you are fortunate enough to see a piece of silk fishnet, buy it.
The coars mesh offers little covering, but much decoration, when used over a contrasting shade of supple material.
In gray or the favorite twine color it allows almost any combination. For entire turbans, for huge tows or for transparent scarfs to be thrown over gorgeous evening costumes, fishnet is a valuable asset in the up-to-date woman's wardrobe.
A C hion Edge.
Scallops—large shallow scallops done in coarse buttonhole stitch with linen floss or heavy cotton—form the attractive edge of a cretonne sofa pillow.
It is advisable to use the natural linen color of the background, as it will be found more effusive than the more brilliant colors of the flowers.

MAKING NEW RECORDS IN AVIATION
6
Glenn Curtiss, one of the foremost American aviators, did some remarkably successful flying during the recent aeroplane meet at Atlantic City, N. J. He was in the air nearly every day and set an American record for a 50-mile flight by covering the distance in five mile laps along the beach in 1 hour, 14 minutes, 59 seconds. Curtiss also gave striking proof of the utility of the aeroplane in war by dropping sham bombs on the outline of a battleship marked out on the gonds.
ELECTRICITY IS AID
Lovers Court by Wireless
Sir Oliver Lodge's System Supplies Artificial Sunshine.
Welighed as 'Business Proposition Method Has Justified Itself and Is Now Being Taken Up on Commercial Lines as Practical.
London. In spite of the obstinate conservatism of the average farmer much has been done to carry out Sir Oliver Lodge's plan of utilizing electricity for re-enforcing the fertility of plants.
Welighed as a business proposition, Sir Oliver Lodge's system has justified itself, and what was tentative and experimental is now being taken up, on commercial lines as a practical auxiliary of husbandry.
Lionel Lodge, who has control of this department of Sir Oliver's work, has explained the development of the past year or two and the hope they afford of further progress.
"Have you ever noticed what a remarkable impulse is given to the growth of crops by a thunderstorm?" asked Mr. Lodge. "That is the effect of the strongly charged atmosphere, and our object is to supply a similar stimulus systematically.
"The growth and development of plants in the Arctic regions compares favorably with that in southern countries, and yet their summer is very short, and the sun's rays have to travel in such an oblique direction that much of their heating power is lost. Why is it, therefore, that the plants flourish? The explanation lies in the strong electrical currents which are passing from the air to the earth, the effect of which can be seen in the Aurora Borealis.
"The electric current can be generated either by a small dynamo or from the nearest supply company's maths, and by means of a transformer it is raised to the high pressure required (about 100,000 volts). The current from the transformer is more or less alternating; that is, it is not a steady current in one direction, but oscillating first in one direction and then in the opposite. For convenience we call the current in one direction positive, in the other negative. It is the positive current that we discharge
Young Couple Learn-Telegraph Code and Mystify Girl's Parents by Rappings on Pipes.
New York. After a courtship carried on by wireless telegraph and communications transmitted, over steam pipes connecting two apartments, which resulted in an elopement and wedding two weeks ago, when Anna belle Rooney, nineteen years of age, 162 Washington avenue, the Bronx, became Mrs. James Connelly, the young people have returned to the home of the bride's parents and have been forgiven.
Connelly, who is twenty two years of age, was graduated from the Clason Point Military academy a year ago. There he learned wireless telegraphy, and when he returned to the place where he boarded on the floor above the apartment occupied by the Rooney family, he rigged up a wireless station on the roof. Here he taught Annabelle how to send and take messages, and this knowledge was turned to Capil's account when Connelly asked Annabelle's parents for her hand, only to be laughed at as a boy by her father. Cut off from any other communication, the young lover exchanged messages by wireless when Connelly went back to the military academy.

from the network of wires above the plants. Under special conditions—as where there is an excess of natural electricity—it might be advisable to use the negative, but alternating current would be of no use.
"To sort out the positive and negative currents from the transformer, valves specially invented for the purpose by Sir Oliver are used. Working exactly like the valves in an ordinary pump, they allow the current to flow in one direction only, and prevent its getting back; they thus store the electricity in the field network from which it flizzes off to the plants below.
"This field network consists of fine iron wire, the wires being spread alight ten yards apart and 18 feet or so above the ground. The wires are so fine that it is difficult to see them even when standing immediately below them.
"The action that the electrical discharge has on the plants, Sir Oliver suggests, may be considered as artificial sunshine, and as in no way taking the place of fertilizer. The richer the roll the larger the increase that may be expected. With more

Clever Genius, In Sheer Bravado
Writes His Dupes, Telling
How He Did It.
London—Sir Robert Anderson, formerly head of the criminal investigation department at Scotland Yard. In his reminiscences in Blackwood's Magazine, tells the following story:
"A genius claimed to have discovered the secret of making gold, and he offered to sell it to a great city firm—a house whose name is in high repute not only in England but in all the capitals of Europe. By means of a process which he had discovered, the bulk of any quantity of gold could be increased by one-half, at trifling expense."
"His dupes accepted his terms, subject to his giving proof of the value of his discovery, and to test it they proposed to supply him with a hundred sovereigns and the needed plant. He thought scorn of working on such a petty sum as that; it would be
after the steam had been turned off, they began to wonder whether the house was haunted. Plumbers were called in to solve the mystery, but they could find no explanation of the rappings. It might be ghosts, they allowed, and they were sure it was not steam.
The rappings ceased, when Anna-belle clapped with Connellly two weeks ago. They were married at St John's baptist church and immediately took themselves to a furnished flat. These facts were learned when they came to the Rooney home and received a blessing.

If a higher increase than this is obtained we consider the results good and if lower poor. On rich soil very much larger percentages have been obtained. The power required is quite small, and many of the installations at present working are in unskilled hands."
ONCE A HUNTER'S PARADISE
Noted Game Preserve of Tolleston Gun Club to Be Subdivided and Cut into City Lots.
Hammond, Ind.—Orders were given the other day to plot 1,700 acres belonging to the Tolleston Gun club of Chicago, near Gary, into 16,000 city lots. The land originally purchased for $17,000, now through the building of Gary is valued at $20,000,000. It was once a hunter's paradise, owned by wealthy Chicagoans, and many bloody battles were fought between club watchmen and natives. Five lives were lost in this way. The club house was in bygone days the scene of brilliant social gatherings from Chicago at the spring and fall shootings. Wolves, pelicans and wildcats were shot in the preserves in old days.
waste of time, for the process was a tedious one.
"Finally it was arranged that he should have $100,000 in sovereigns, and a house was taken in Leman street. Whitechapel, and there a laboratory was fitted up for his use. The gold was placed in tanks provided for the purpose, the needed chemicals were supplied, and the experiment proceeded, with elaborate precautions against larceny or fraud.
"The man was emphatic in insisting on two points; no one but himself was to enter the laboratory; and he was to be rigorously searched every time he passed out. After many weeks, during which his visits were frequent, he disappeared; and when eventually the door was forced, the tanks which had contained the gold were empty, and the bottles which contained the chemicals were full. What had become of the $100,000? The fullest inquiry only served to elicit proof that the man had been searched with exemplary care at every visit.
"The mystery would have remained forever unsolved if the criminal had not himself supplied the solution of it. In sheer bravado and pride in his achievement, he wrote to the firm he had swindled, telling them of his appreciation of the money, and of his confidence that they would rather lose twice as much than incur ridicule on every exchange in Europe by a prosecutor, which would disclose their folly. And then he revealed his method. Every time he left the laboratory the gold headed cane he carried was packed with sovereigns."

Object of Innovation is to Reduce the Number of Messengers Who Are Later Unable to Get Work.
London, London is soon to have gail postoffice messengers. The innovation will probably be tried first in some of the large provincial offices, and if successful will be extended to St Martin's Grand and the rest of the kingdom. The object of the movement is to reduce the number of boy messengers—many of whom are unable to obtain situations when they grow up.
The gail postoffice messengers will be employed to inform work of an elephant carrying a child, and understand that accommodation will be found for them in the city.

We wish to call our readers' atten-
tion, particularly, to the advertisement of Prof. H. J. Kroesen elsewhere in this paper. There are no better teachers of the piano, and very few as good, in this city. Prof. Kroesen is known throughout this country by soloists and musicians as a consummate artist, both as an accompanist and soloist. He it was that taught piano to Harry A. Williams, of this city, now located in New York City where he is so successfully teaching both piano and voice. One of the greatest sopranos in the world, some years ago, was Madam Fursh-Madi After Prof. Kroesen had accompanied her in concert here, she pronounced him the best she had met in America and secured him a professorship with her in the great New York Conservatory of Music, a position he held several years and until an overwhelming desire to return to Cleveland, his home, caused him to resign it. For advanced students of the piano, we do not hesitate to stamp Prof. Kroesen, the best in the city. He will teach you in your own home if it is preferred. Call him over the phone (West 407.1) and arrange for lessons. He will take beginners, also. As the result of an alteration during the "emancipation celebration" at Luna park, Monday, Arthur Hawkins of Elyria and George Plemmons, E. 30th street, near Central avenue, are in St. Alexis hospital. Hawkins has a bullet in his left arm and another in his side. Plemmons has two fingers shot off. The shooing occurred because of being when the funking was at its height. According to the story told by the Accounting of Cleveland man was there with his wife. The couple became separated and the woman finally met Hawkins and Plemmons. They were talking when the husband came along, without any argument he drew a revolver and began shooting. Hawkins fell at the second shot. Then Plemmons received a bullet in the left hand. A large crowd collected and in the confusion the man with the gun made his escape. W. A. Nunn's ambulance was called. The police were notified and began a search for the man who did the shooting. In the afternoon Judge Robert H. Terrell of Washington, D. C., delivered an interesting address. The fact is more apparent than ever before that alleged emancipation celebrations for money-gain must either be discontinued, or our people in this community harmed more and more when they can least afford it. Just as we predicted or rather indicated, indirectly, last week, if not most of the attendance at Luna park Monday was desirable from every other viewpoint except that of money-gain. With all due respect to the good members of the Cleveland Association of Afro-Americans, the organization that promoted the affair, better men must have charge of such celebrations and greater care must be exercised in the control of the attendance or our good people in the future must and will remain away from them. Shooting and knifing scrapes are getting too common and are getting entirely too much publicity, too, in the daily papers for the good of the race in this community. It seems strange that this fact is not paid more attention by those who insist each year in duplicating the alleged emancipation-celebration opportunity for such altercations as disgraced our people and the city, at Luna park Monday. A halt must be called!
THE NEW INDUSTRY.
Dr. J. Gardner-Ross Commands the Xenia Stemmery—A Splendid Opportunity to Get Work.
Xenia, O., July 25, 1910.
Editor Gazette, Dear Sir. and Friend:—Being a race-loving man like yourself, I am always on the alert for the welfare of the race and anxious to see opportunities opened to us and more. anxions that we grasp them. I understand that about the first of last March your Xenia correspondent described the new industry—The Wm. Stroop Tobacco Stemmery—which was then opening up here. Since I have been here I have visited the factory and enjoyed the courtesies of those in charge and investigated it in detail—warehouses, pay-roll and the working-force, and conveniences. I have traveled much in our country where prejudice is our greatest barrier and where but little of it is seen, and I wish to say to you and those who shall read this, that this is the best factory-opportunity I have ever seen offered my people. It is the only instance where I have seen a large corporation divide the control and oversight among our race. The foreman, forelady, time-keeper, and all positions in the stemming department are held by gentlemen and ladies of the race. The other force is mixed about equally. There are a number of white girls, boys and men working harmoniously with our people in the stemming department.
Young Husband—Well, my dear, how are you getting along at cooking school?
Young Wife—Oh, I'm making wonderful progress. Last week I learned how to make cunning little turtles out of ralsins and cloves.

Clever Joke of Kind King.
King Edward's great nature was illustrated the other night by a London correspondent, at the Press club in New York.
"The king," said the correspondent, "was visiting Rufford Abbey, and one morning, in company with his host, Lord Arthur Savile, he took a walk over the preserves.
"Suddenly Lord Arthur, a big burly man, rushed forward and seized a shabby fellow with a dead pheasant preriding from the breast of his coat.
"Sir," said Lord Arthur to the king, "this fellow is a bad egg. This is the second time I've caught him poaching." "But the king's handsome face beamed, and he laughed his gay and tolerant laugh." "Oh, let him go," he said. "If he really were a bad egg, you know, he wouldn't poach."
The Dentist's Joke:
At a recent dinner of the Author's club in London to Mr. Owen Seaman, the editor of Punch, Mr. Walter Emanuel, another member of the staff of Punch, referred to the fact that the man with the largest sense of humor he had ever struck was an Englishman—a dentist. He went to him after suffering long with a toothache. He refused to have gas, and the dentist pulled out a tooth, leaving him writhing in pain, and took the tooth to the window, where he laughed quite heartily. He groaned, "What's the joke?" "Wrong tooth," said the dentist.
Yes. Indeed.
Hostess (at party)—Why, so silent,
Miss De Mur? You've scarcely said

WOMAN FOR RECORDERSHIP
Republicans in Wright County, Iowa, Nominate Mrs. C. V. Anderson for Important Post.
Clarison, Ia. — Mrs. Currie Vaugh Anderson was nominated by the Republicans of Wright county, Iowa, at the primary election held recently to the office of county recorder by a large plurality. Upon being interviewed as to her opinion of women in politics, she had the following to say: "I don't think every woman ought to vote any more than every man—intelligence should be the qualification and not sex. The world will never be made any better if the ignorant, immoral
Miss
Garrett Vaughn Anderson
woman is allowed to vote and conditions will continue the same. Women should be allowed to hold any office of trust that a man does, provided she is qualified for the position and gets the votes."
Mrs. Anderson is an advocate of the great farmers' co-operative movement, which is sweeping the country, especially in the great grain states. The state of Iowa alone having 325 farmers' co-operative companies, which buy and sell grain, stock and lumber. In the state alone more than $50,000,000 worth of business was done last year.
As far as is known Mrs. Anderson is the only woman doing lecture work for this organization, and being a farm woman, is heartily in sympathy with the movement. Mrs. Anderson delivers addresses at Fourth of July, Decoration day and all such gatherings.
She is a member of the editorial staff of the American Co-Operative Journal, one of the greatest organizations of the co-operative movement published in this country.
Mrs. Anderson was born in Topoka, Kan., August 25, 1879, but moved to Iowa at an early age, where she has since resided. She is a graduate of the Eagle Grove high school and a rural teacher. She was married while quite young to a farmer, who "died some four years ago, leaving her with four children, three boys and a girl, Donald, Carlyle, Max and Averil, the oldest ten and the youngest five years old. She farmed for a time after her husband's death, but the hired man problem and the "wet" years' compelled her to abandon this.
Mrs. Anderson made practically a "house-to-house" campaign and drove livery wagons and automobiles and attended township school picnics in her work. She was treated courteously by the men.
Some were under the impression the campaign was conducted for the purpose of securing a husband, but she thinks it was rather an expensive way to find a husband, and knows of no man who is worth hiring an automobile at the rate of $10 per day to pursue. She is out for office because of the fact that wages paid women teachers and other lines of work is not adequate to support a family. Mrs. Anderson expects to go on in political work and if not able to vote will try for the highest offices, that women may acquire, at least will continue to talk and persuade men to vote for the right, a silent influence woman can and is already wielding.
REAL JOINT SNAKE IS CAGED
Illinois Farmer Knocks Reptile to Pieces and Captures It When It Reassembles.
Ste Marle, Ill—In this hamlet, the metropolis of the buttermilk belt in Illinois, lives a "Joint" snake, which is daily making acrobatic feats of circuses look spurious. Many residents have seen the performances of the serpent and vouch for the truth of its remarkable powers.
Albert Kauffman discovered the snake in his meadow. He hit it with a stick and it flew into five pieces. He had heard the story that a "joint" snake would reunite itself, so he waited until sundown, which, according to tradition, is the time the serpent reassembles.
As the sun, was disappearing in the west he saw the snake gather up its scattered fragments.
Meanwhile Kauffman had got a forked stick and a wire cage, and before his snakeship knew what had happened it was in durance.
The serpent is three feet long and speckled. Kauffman feeds mice to his prisoner, which appears to be contented.
GETS BACX HIS OLD TURTLE
New Jersey Bather Recaptures Pet That Wandered Away Several Years Ago.
Upper Montville, N. J.—A snapping turtle that Hillard Throckmorton had lost 22 years ago returned to him when he was bathing in Green pond. He long had-mourned his loss, but he mourned its return still more.
Throckmorton was having his daily swim when suddenly a toe of his left foot was caught and held. He tried to shake off his new attachment, but it refused to let go. He swam to the shore, almost falling from pain and exertion.
He chased and a poker were necessary to make the snapper let go. Then the following inscription was found carved on the shell: "H. T. 1858."
"Why?" gasped Throckmorton. "I made that on a jet turtle when I was fifteen years old."
Practical Fashions
LADIES' SHIRTWAIST.
Paris Pattern No. 3227. All Stains Allowed — The Lingerie shirt waist is the favorite for wear with separate skirts, and one needs so many of them that a variety of deeds is essential. We illustrate a charming model, especially suited to batiste or lawn, although other fabrics, such as pongee, taffeta, gingham, percale, madras and the like may also be utilized. Front and back of this waist have the Gibson tuck at the shoulders, and this seems to form, a frame for other tucks, which add to the dressiness and substance of the waist. In trout there is a group of short tucks and another of tall length ones between the shoulder and the closing band. This last is arranged for studs, but buttons serve as well. In some cases a dressy effect is obtained by making the cuff of embroidery or lace. The pattern is in 6 sizes—22 to 42 inches bust measure. Size 26 bust requires 274 yards of material 36 inches wide.
To procure this pattern send 10 cents

Paris Pattern No. 3210, All Seams Allowed. —The vogue for pleasant styles which has taken possession of all kinds of women's garments has extended its sway even over the frocks of very little children, and the model which we illustrate; will show how charmingly the idea can be adapted to the styles even of babies. The dress is cut in one piece—that is, it has no seam on the shoulder and all the shaping is effected by the underarm seam. This extends along the under side of the sleeves as well. There is a broad box plait in the center of the front and also of the back, and it extends to the hem. Around the waist is a small belt. The outline of the neck is square. The pattern is in 3 sizes—2, 4 and 6 years. Size 4 years requires 15% yards of material 36 inches wide.
To procure this pattern send 10 cents to "Pattern Department," of this paper. Write name and address plainly, and be sure to give size and number of pattern
Some Famous Swimmers.
Capt. Webb, in whose honor a memorial was unveiled recently at Davis, is the first swimmer of modern times to be commemorated in this fashion. The honor is well deserved, for Sir William Ferguson and the other surgeons who examined Webb after his channel swim pronounced his exploit to stand almost uninvaded as an instance of human prowess and endurance. Apparently the only other swimming feat to be commemorated by a monument is the passage of the Tiber by Horatus Cocles, described so vividly in Macauleus's "Lays of Ancient Rome," a statue of Horatus 'having been erected in his lifetime. Leander's nightly swim across the Hellespont to visit his beloved Hero is depicted on a coin of Abydos preserved in the British museum. From this it appears that Leander swam a hand-over-hand stroke—London Chronicle.
Tall Oat Stalks
J. L. Hifner, who lives on a farm on the Blue Springs road, southeast of Independence, has a field of oats so tall that only tall men can show their heads above the crop. Mr. Hifner exhibited samples 66 inches long taken from his field. The heads of the oat stalks are 17 inches in length—Kansas City Times.

WHERE HE SAW RESEMBLANCE
Apt Remark of Small Boy Embarrassed Toper and Filled Car With Merriment.
Jimille, who is a very small boy living in the East end, accompanied his mother downtown several days ago. Nearly everything he saw was quite new to him, so he was not sparing in his comments and opinions and questions.
Seated opposite Jimille and his mother on the car home bound was an individual who, judging by the "blossom" on his nose, had partaken freely of joy water. None of Jimille's neighbors possessed an appendage that could compare with the one across the aisle.
In silence Jimille took in the situation and the "blossom". His thoughts must have grown so curious that they could not be withheld any longer and he finally blurred out in a loud voice:
"Mamma, is that Santa Claus?" pointing to the man with the red nose. Embarked, Jimmi's mother tried to spice her son, but it was no use. In an audible whisper the connection between the man and Santa Claus was disclosed much to the disconcert of the man.
"Why, mamma, didn't it say in that story about Santa Claus that Santa had a nose like a cherry," he asked, and the car was in an upear Pittsburgh, Times Gazette.
Merely a Prevaricator
A doctor relates the following story: "I had a patient who was very ill and who ought to have gone to a warmer climate, so I resolved to try what hypotension would do for him. I had a large sun painted on the ceiling of his room and by suggestion induced him to think it was the sun which would cure him. The ruse succeeded and he was getting better rapidly when one day on my arrival I found he was dead."
"Did it fall, after all, then?" asked one of the doctor's hearers.
"No," replied the doctor, "the died of sunstroke."
A prominent western attorney tells of a boy who once applied at his office for work.
"This boy was bright hooking and I rather took to him.
"Now, my son, I said, 'If you come to work for me you will occasionally have to write telegrams and take down telephone messages.' Hence a pretty high degree of schooling is essential. Are you fairly well educated?
"The boy smiled confidently.
"I be; he said."—Independent.

Two Hundred Million Dollars a Year Might Be Added to Wealth of Country.
Computing that there are in the United States at least 300,000 indigent consumptives who should be cared for in charitable or semi-charitable sanatoria and hospitals, the National Association for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis estimates that the annual cost to the country for the treatment of these persons would be $50,000,000 at the rate of $1,669 per day per patient. At the lowest possible estimate the country loses $200,000,000 a year from the incapacity of these indigent victims of tuberculosis. This would mean a net saving of $150,000,000 a year to the United States if all victims of consumption who are too poor to afford proper treatment in expensive sanatoria were cared for at the expense of the municipality, county or state. And this annual gain does not include the enormous saving that would accrue from the lessened infection due to the segregation of the dangerous consumptives in institutions.
SCRATCHED SO SHE COULD NOT SLEEP
"I write to tell you how thankful I am for the wonderful Cutieca Remedies. My little niece had eczema for five years and when her mother died I took care of the child. It was all over her face and body; also on her head. She scratched so that she could not sleep nights. I used Cutieca Soap to wash her with and then applied Cutieca Ointment. I did not use quite half the Cutieca Soap and Ointment, together with Cutieca Resolvent, when you could see a change and they cured her nicely. Now she is eleven years old and has never been bothered with eczema since. My friends think it is just great the way the baby was cured by Cutieca. I send you a picture taken when she was about 18 months old.
"She was taken with the oozea when two years old. She was covered with big sora's and her mother had all the best doctors and tried all kinds of salves and medicines without effect until we used Cureura Remedies. Mrs. H. Klerman, 663 Quincy St., Brooklyn, N. Y., Sept. 27, 1909."

Judges' Wigs.
The wig is only worn by English harriers to give them a stera - judicial appearance, and no one can say that it falls in this respect. The custom was originated by a French judge in the seventeenth century when, happening to don a marquais wig one day, he found it gave him such a stern and dignified appearance that he decided to get one for himself and wear it at all times in court. This he did, and the result was so satisfactory from a legal 'point of view, that not only judges, but harriers, also, took up the custom throughout Europe.

Elbert Hubbard on Suffering.
Elbert Hubbard, editor of the Phillis-
line, says "Most of the suffering in
this life comes from too much work, or
too little." He could have left off that
"too little," and he would have left it
off had he referred to wash day suffer-
ment, he has been too much work
on wash day for the woman, but now
we have Easy Task soap that does the
work easily, quickly, cleanly and sure-
ly—and does half the work all by it.
It is the cleanest, purest, white
laundry soap made and sold at five
cents a cake.

The: Return of Ferguson.
A night clerk in a hotel sat doing at his desk at about 1 a.m., when a man in evening clothes came in as if laboriously trying to walk a crack, and said:
"I'm Ferguson; key to room 41."
"The guest disappeared in the direction of his room, one flight up. In a few minutes a man in his shirt sleeves with a hattened silk hat on the side of b head, and with one shoe on a foot and the other in his hand, came in and said to the clerk.
"I'm person; key to for-for."
"Mr. Ferguson just took his key and went up."
"Mr. Ferguson just fell out window n' left key inside. Kindly lemme have 'mother.' Everybody's."
The Good Old Times.
There is a lot of talk about the "good old times." There weren't any "good old times." If you are talking about wash day or house cleaning, Those tasks meant red hands and headaches and backaches and trouble. Easy Task laundry soap would have made them "good" old times indeed. It does half the work in washing and cleaning; it drives the dirt out and not in; it doesn't shrink flannels or streak linens, and it hasn't any rosin in it to rot the fabrics. If your grocery isn't living in the good old times he sells it—lots of it!
A Real Argument.
They were talking about argument, not in the abstract, but as applying to domestic happiness. "What do you think is the most unanswerable argument you ever heard?" one bachelor asked a married man. "That's 'very easy,' he replied. 'When your wife says, 'If they can afford it, we can,' there is no flaw in that, and never will be.'" Youth's Companion.
