The Savannah Tribune VOLUME XXIX Large Crowd at Library Debate Large Crowd at Library Debate QUESTION OF WOMAN SUFFRAGE LEFT UNSOLVED Imperial Four Won Quartette Contest—Library Cause Given Quite a Boost—Erection of Library Building to Begin Shortly The debate and quartette contest at the Second Baptist church last Monday night for the benefit of the Carnegie Library was quite a success and very much enjoyed. The attendance which not quite as large as had been hoped for yet it numbered about 700 and the affair in general was a great boost to the library. The debate, "Should Women Vote" was very spirited and much enthusiasm was manifested by the audience in the various points brought out by the speakers. While there were many who felt that the speakers on the affirmative, J. C. Lindsay and Dr. B. W. S. Daniels, had a shade the better of the argument, yet equally as many were of the opinion that the negative, Rev. A. W. Bryant and E. W. Sherman, had won. The judges, however, decided that neither side had won declared the bebate a tie, and complimented highly the four speakers. Singing under the name of the Imperial quartette, Messrs H. R. Collins, Fred Lightburn, Robert Jordan and P. A. Moore carried the evening in the quartette contest and won out easily. From a financial standpoint the library movement will be swelled by almost a half hundred dollars, the receipts accruing from the contest. Mr. Emanuel W. Houstoun, who has charge of the raising of the additional $1500 for the library and who managed the contest of last Monday evening, deserves much praise for the success of the entertainment. Through his efforts the library movement has gained many new supporters and has been given much impetus. During Monday night's contest several subscriptions to the library were received. It has been stated that the erection of the building will be begun shortly. The Negro Nurse. Of peculiar interest to southern readers should be the story from Chicago of a southern white boy taken suddenly and desperately ill with pneumonia, who was hurried by the doctors to a Negro hospital as the one most convenient. His mother telegraphed urging his removal to soma other hospital. It was too late for that. For 36 hours continuously the nurse assigned him fought for his life and won. The mother, while doubtless not affected in just the way some northen people might expect her to be, pays heart-felt tribute to the qualities exemplified by this Negro trained nurse. She had probably known before, as southern people generally, that the Negro woman household nurse is the best and most faithful in the world. She could not have expected less of a Negro nurse professionally trained for the care of the sick. Very very few of us who had Negro nurses in our childhood can ever forget the debt of kindness we owe the Negro race.—Charlotte Observer. The Married Ladies Club Entertains. The Married ladies' club entertained Tuesday night at the residence of Mrs. J. R. Davis 511 Anderson street, east, in honor of Mr. and Mrs. Alexander E. Carey of Washington, and Miss Rosa Clyde of Charleston. The affair was a very enjoyable one and there were about forty five 'present. The evening was spent in cards and dancing. The prizes were won by Mrs. Eleanor Dent, Mrs. R. N.:Nash, Miss Florence Irwin, Mr. Marion Johnson, Mr. Duncan Scott and Mr. M. B. Branham. The out of town guests were Mr. and Mrs. S. M. Dent, Mrs J. L. Jackson and Mrs S. Nash, all of Brunswick, Ga. AS FURNISHED BY THE NATIONAL NEGRO BUSINESS LEAGUE Tim E. Owsley, proprietor of the Crown Garden Theatre at Indianapolis, is doing a business which justifies a weekly pay roll of $400-for help and talent. Buckner and Brent, colored men, conduct what is acknowledged to be one of the very best grocery stores in Hopkinsville, Ky., and have a large white patronage. L. S. Williams, one of St. Louis' successful colored undertakers, has recently branched out in the monument business and in addition to furnishing funeral service can now supply patrons with grave stones from the simple kind to the costly marble or granite monument, all made in his establishment. One of the largest and most successful printing establishments conducted by a colored man is the one owned and conducted by O. K. Robinson at St. Louis, Mo. The Home Protective Association, an insurance company with head quarters in Hannibal, Mo., organized and operated by colored men, is doing an excellent business throughout the entire state of Missouri. "The Silver Grill" is the name of a large and finely equipped cafe recently established in St. Louis for high-grade colored patronage. The fact that its business is excellent shows that colored people appreciate high-class service when given by a colored man. Madam Walker of Indianapolis, hair culturist, recently sailed for Jamaica, Cuba and Haiti to introduce her hair preparation. Madam Walker will spend the winter in these countries. Mitchell Fountain Ink Eraser Company is a new concern launched by G. W. Mitchell, a Negro of Chicago. Mr. Mitchell has invented a new fluid which quickly erases ink, and which is used in a fountain similar to the ordinary fountain pen. -Heretofore ink erasing preparations consisted of two fluids which had to be applied separately. The Mitchell invention revolutionizes erasing fluids. He has capitalized his company at $50,000. One big white firm offered him $25,000 for his patent but he declined it. The Acme Steam Laundry, a colored enterprise at St. Louis, employs forty men and women, all colored. The plant is equipped with all the latest laundry machinery, and is doing a fine business. In addition to its colored patronage it enjoys a large white patronage. W. C. Gordon! the pioneer undertaker at St. Louis, did a $54,000 business last year, that is, his receipts amounted to that much. His real estate operations also netted him handsomely. Mr. Gordon is rated the most successful and wealthiest Negro' in St. Louis. Starting some seventeen years ago with a capital of not more than $300, by attention to his business and honest dealings, he has now reached a point where the earnings from his business and investments amount to $20,000 per annum. The fine three-story U. B. F. building at Hannibal, Mo., has reduced its indebtedness down to $1,600. The lower floor is occupied by a well stocked grocery and an up-to-date pharmacy, both colored enterprises. Elias Ryan, a colored tile contractor of Lexington, Ky., does the largest volume of business in his line in that city, getting practically all the large contracts both for laying tile and setting cabinet mantels. The National Jacket Company. which manufactures white duck jackets, trousers, butchers' frocks and waitresses' aprons, is a Negro enterprise that is doing a splendid business, employing a number of young colored men and women The company is located at Iudia SAVANNAH, GEORGIA, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 29 1913 White Plains Fair a Success MANY ATTEND FOUR-COUNTY FAIR AT SPRINGFIELD SCHOOL Exhibits of Much Higher Order Than Last Year—Luty Skrine Wins Boys' Corn Club Prize—Visitors Much Pleased with Exhibits. The second coming together, November 20th and 21st, of the Negro business men, farmers, teachers, ministers and school children at the Springfield Farm School, White Plains, Ga., in the annual four county fair, was avery enjoyable and profitable affair. The four counties that are mostly interested in this annual show are Hancock, Warren, Taliaferro and Greene, but at the last coming together there were visitors from many other counties, some coming from as distant points as Savannah and Atlanta. The exhibits were of a much higher order this year than last and also greater in number. Almost all the towns and villages of those counties had exhibits and about 100 premiums were awarded. Among the particularly interesting features of the fair was the baby show. Many fine babies were exhibited and much rivalry was shown by the mothers in showing their babies to the best advantage. The woman's department under Mrs. J. W. Hubert was especially brilliant and received much favorable comment from the visitors. In the boys' corn club contest, first prize was awarded to Luty Skrine, who reported the largest yield, 72.2 bushels to the acre. St. Philip Church Rev. F. L. Larshea was the speaker at the eleven o'clock service on last Sunday. Rev. Larshea preached one of the most practical sermons that has been heard at St. Philip for some time and there should have been a larger crowd out to hear him. Rev. Singleton delivered his annual discourse on Sunday night; it is always called the farewell sermon, but it is hoped that he will be returned for another year. On Monday night Rev. Singleton read his annual report to the church, and gave annual certificates for the year. At 8 a. m., on last Tuesday evening Rev. Singleton left for the annual conference which convened at Hawkinsville, on Wednesday November 26th. The pulpit of St. Philip will be filled by some prominent ministers on tomorrow (Sunday). St. Philip mid-winter bazaar will begin Monday night December 8th. Our friends and the public are invited, the bazaar will be held in the basement of the church.

An expert going over the books found the receipts from the sale of hair preparations and agents' fees total from $100 to $150 per day. Mrs. A. M. Pope-Turbo, a color woman, is the proprietor. Georgia Conference In Session AFRICAN METHODIST CHURCHES MEETING IN HAWKINSVILLE Savannah Delegates Left Tuesday Morning and Night—Local District to Make Fine Showing—Several Changes Expected in Local Pulpits. The Georgia Conference of the African Methodist Episcopal church convened in Hawkinsville, Ga., on Wednesday and will conclude its session to-morrow night. From reports, this conference is one of the largest and most enthusiastic in the history of this church in Georgia. The Rt. Rev. Joseph S. Flipper, D. D., L. L. D. of Atlanta, is presiding and the work of the conference is being carried through with the usual dispatch. It is believed by the local members of the church that Savannah will make equally as fine a showing this year as last when one of the local districts carried off the honors. Several changes are expected in the local pulpits, the one receiving the most attention is that of St. Philip Monumental church. Rev. L. A. Townsley, the present pastor, has supplied this charge for five years and as this is the maximum limit which a pastor can successively supply one pulpit, much interest is being manifested in the appointment of his successor On account of the great obligations St. Philip church, Charles street, is under and his thorough knowledge of every phase of the work there, it is generally expected that Rev. R. H. Singleton will be returned to his present charge. The conference will adjourn Sunday night when the appointments will be read. Those of local interest will appear in The Tribune of next week. Second Baptist Church The pastor, Rev. D. Augustine Reid, preached two eloquent sermons, both morning and evening on Sunday last. The Sunday school will have its exercises at 8:30 p. m. They have arranged an interesting program. The public is cordially invited to attend. The B. Y. P. U. meets every Sunday evening at 6:30. The Sunday school at 9:30 a. m. St. Paul C. M. E. Church The services last Sunday were very enjoyable and well attended. The 4th chapter of Matt. was read as the morning lesson. The 19th and 20th verses of the same chapter were used as a text for the morning service by the pastor, who made the point very forceably that all Christians are instructed to be fishers of men; and to tail to do so was leaving undone a solemn duty to God. Rev. C. B. Collins preached a soul-stirring sermon at the evening service, using as a text Matt. 12:42. His discussion was full of interest from start to finish. Tomorrow is rainy day and every member is urged in the name of God to give as God has prospered him. The cry of help is also made to our friends and the public generally to throw out the life line. $200.00 is badly needed. We extend our thanks in advance to those who shall help us in this wave of necessity. Usual services in connection with the rally. An invitation is extended to the public at large. Another U. S.

Negro Mechanic Gets Gold Medal for Work on the Panama Canal Locksl "The McClintic-Marshall Co has given a gold medal to the foremen and leading employees of the company in the construction of the lock gates. The recipients of the medals are: "J. W. Wright, general foreman; Robert M. Doherty, Thomas E. McGovern, L. D. Hess, R. Feltman, Ed. Goucher, George Duer, Ed. Ramsey, H. J. McMahony, R. Zane, A. Jurey, E. Russel, Wm. Kleary, P. Conners, J. Lindgren, W. T. Menier, W. Reynolds, J. Duckett, G. Brown, T. McKnight, H. Watt, G. A. Barnes, J. Wilson, E. Mueller, R. M. Rawlings, R. A. Frompton, G. Ehile, G. Beideman, H. L. Barker; L Story, John Celvorki, F. J. Lenow, S. Blissly and E. Mose." Geo. A. Barnes, whose name occurs in the list of those who received gold medals for being the best employees in the construction of the Panama Canal and was also a foreman, is well known to a large number of St. Louisans. A few years ago he was member of the Central Baptist church and sang in the choir. He also organized the Colored Mechanics' Exchange and was a master of many of the building trades. He writes the Advance, that the Panama Canal is one of the greatest achievements in mechanism in the history of the world, and, as a matter of course, he feels proud that in its construction a Negro was given a gold medal for being among the foremost in the skill with which he formed its concrete pillars and constructed the draws and gates of the locks. Mr. Barnes installed the machinery, air compressors and also acted as chief carpenter. He has been promoted to charge off Miraflores Locks. He expects to return to St. Louis about the end of March.—St. Louis Advance. * St. Benedicts Dots November 30, being the first Sunday in advent, another ecclesiastical year will begin for the church. The chief holy days and seasons of the Catholic church are: 1. Christmas, for which Advent is a preparation. 2. Easter, for which Lent is the preparation. 3. Pentecost, extending to the first Sunday of Advent. At St. Benedict's church, the services during Advent will take place on Sundays; as usual, morning and evening sermons will be preached on the epistle or gospel of the day which are all very appropriate to the holy season of Advent. Every Friday in Advent is a day of fast and abstinence. Not only on such days are Catholics forbidden to eat fleshmeat, but are allowed but one full meal. Many are dispensed from fasting, especially working people, old people, those who are sick or have not yet reached the age of 21 years. The time of Advent means "Coming" and it is used in the Catholic church to represent the 4000 years of preparation for the coming of Christ. Advent comprises the four weeks preceding Christmas, and the church has appointed this holy season that we may consider the wretched state of mankind before the coming of our Redeemer that we may prepare ourselves worthily to the feast of Christmas; and for the second Advent, namely, for our hour of death. During the time of Advent let us apply ourselves with more zeal to love and admit him in our hearts and keep his holy commands. Let us begin at once pennance and good works, that we may with confidence await the judgement of God, for it is said "The wicked shall go into everlasting punishment, but the just into life everlasting." St. Matt. 25:46. On the second Sunday in Advent, the opening of the beautiful exercises of the Forty Hours will take place at St. Benidict's Church; the Rt. Rev. Bishop Keily will sing pontifical High Mass, assisted by several priests. Monday and Tuesday also a high mass will be sung by one of the priests of St. Benedicts Church; and the choir will give some of its best musical selections. These exercises will last three days and, the blessed Sacrament is exposed in the church every day from morning to sunset. In the next issue of the Tribune, a more elaborate program of those holy functions will be presented to the public so that every member and friend, Catholics and non- NUMBER 11 Met In Macon Last Week GENERAL CONVENTION OF CONG'L CHURCHES Many Prominent Churchmen Present-One New Church Established at Groveland, Ga.-Convention Meets in Augusta Next Year The twenty third annual session of the General Convention of the Congregational churches of Georgia, Rev.

Among the Masons A Mason’s integrity should be beyond question. - Innovations in Masonry are by no means improvements. ; Masons should ever be on the . side of law, order and morality, The festival season is on, and the social side of\Masonry has fulleway. Our Masonry must mean some- thing, to become a power for good in the world, Make the lodge meeting inter- esting. And don’t keep’ the brethren too late, ee eet ee ee oe | + It ie an encouraging fact that Masonic readers are on the in- crease, und some time—but when?—the time will come when ‘the number of Masons who take, pay for and read Masonic jouro- als, will bear the samo ratio to the whole body of Masonry, as do those who do not even know that there is sucha thingas a Masonic periodical, or knowing it, neither take nor pay for a copy.—Square and Compasses. . MASONIC BEIAVIOR What constitutes Masonic be- havior and its interpretation by the Masonic fraternity is one of the most important questions which the present day Mason in- dividually and collectively is called upon to answer. How are we applying Masonic behavior to our every day life, ang is it working out in practice? Considering our obligations, laws and edicts, the beautiful exem plifications’ and symbolisms‘ of SUR Seats ee t’on which not only each and ev- ery Mason must answer according to the dictates of his own heart and conscience, but itis one of great moment to Masdnry as an organization, Masonic behavior may justly be classified under two heads 28 applied to Todge deportment,” and ‘*Masonic behavior as seen by those outside of the fold.” the two, however, are 50 closely intewoven as to make them indis- pensable in covering the subject at large, : A candidate for Masonry builds his belief on the attitude of his elder brethrea toward Ma- sonry, their deportment and sin- cerity of purpose, inore than up- on the teacliings of the ritual and the sentiments conveyed to him in the work, His first iuipress- ions go a long way toward giving him either a correct or erroneous opinion of the true purpose of Masonry. Can it be, expected that a condidate initiated in an. atmosphere of insincerity will ever becorre a model of Masonic behavior? Is it reasonable to presume that the young man waiting in the ante-roomsfor his first degrees, whether in a blue lodge or in the so-called higher grades, amid the bantering of good fellowship and prize‘ fight conversations is in the proper gtate of mind to absorb for his Zood the beautiful teachings which are about to be imparted tohim? Hardly. Lodge deportment, therefore, becomes the basic foundation upon which we must build Ma- sonic behaviour, The word be- haviorvis not the most euphoni- ous expression when applied to adults, but it fits this sub- ject admirably. It is on Ma- sqnic behaviorinside and out of the lodge room, that the world forms its opinion of Masonry. We may preach the highest phil- osophy of right living Known to man and if we do not practice it in our daily life and for the up- lifting and edification of our fel- low beings it becomes'woree than breadcastupon the waters. This applies to Masonry more than to toany other institution in the world, save possibly the church, And it applies in a greater meas ure to Masonry than to the church in that the modern church permits of any form of demon- strations, while Masonry de- mands a certain type of charac- ter built on a sincere belief in a living God,—Missouri Freema- son, If you are living for yourself alone, you had better do the mourning for yourself now, there will be no one to do it at your funeral. Useless and hurtful memories must be crowded out by filling the mind with better things. Most of such reflections are mere idle reveries that can be swept away by the fresh breeze of en- thusiasm, activity and duty, The briefest and, best state- ment of the antiquity of the craft comes from the New England Craftsman, which says; We have been teachirg brotherhood aud and charity for centuries before other societies were born.—Free- mason, Mr. Emmerson has said, “How can I bear what you say when what you are thunders in my ears?” The writer wants to call attention of all Masons to this say- ingofEmmerson. Weharea good deal of verbal Masonry at the present time and the institution seems to have degraded into a sort of port pouri of words and move- ments.

Suggestions That Will Save Time-and |. . Money For the Farmer. ‘There is perhaps no place and prob- ably no line of. work that is more loose- ly or poorly planned than some of the farmstends of this country, says H. E. Colby in the Dairy Farmer. When you realize that the farm is a manufacturing plant, when one takes |4nto consideration that here the raw matertala—the soll, the seeds, the crops, the animals—all are products that are to be used,either as a means of manu: facturing the highest’ class quallty of human food or as food itself, then one will realize the importance of so ar ranging the farmstead that the work can be carried on most conveniently and economically. | Frequently there are natural condl- tions that must be_taken Into consid: eration in laying out a place of this kind, but with the present day meth- ods of building and equipping it is pos- sible to overcome almost anything of this kind without serious inconvenience and when once it is arranged remem- ber it must stand for years. It is a mistake to try to economize time that will mean a few dollars or a little work that will occupy a day or two when building is in process and then spend .ten or fifteen minutes every day for the next twenty years, simply because this saving was made in the first place. It is important that the producta of the farm should be handled in ‘such a Tr eS ae : eke Cane: . oes Pita xe a Gere ca ee ee i iy Pad j Soo Pe ne og MR SH Sly ies SA Se ed ee SLES ela ae Pao ae ae ee Pon see Cae ae ae ag pe ag 2 hr ail ete AO ROPES ie SHEE RN ty ee be eT Saal Photograph by Long Island agricultural eae aaa CANTELOUPES GROWING ON PORCH. ° way that they will begin at one end of the plant and come out a finished article at the other end. For example: The dairy barn will be in one place, the milk’ house where the cream is to be handled and the milk is to be sep- arated may be 2 considerable distance from that, and the calf and hog barns, where the skimmilk ts to be fed, will be equally distunt in another direction. There fs no reason why the farm should not be planned in such a way that the milk can be taken directly from the barn to the milk house and from there to the hog house and calf barn and ‘henhouse without duplicating the path back to the stable or without Tunning back and forth. Do not think that the Dairy Farmer advocates the close proximity of the milk house to either the cow stable or the hog house if the very best of pre- cautions are not used to prevent con- teminating the mfik and cream with odors common to these buildings. But {f proper measures are taken the buildings may be conventently arrang- ed. ‘This fs done in very many of the best farina plants, but it {3 not to be recommended indiscriminately, for too ‘often the help fbecomes careless of ‘those Iittle precautions that prevent [contamination of the product from outside sources. But if the milk house 4s properly arranged, so the milk can ‘be taken from the cow barn and the skimmilk delivered directly to the oth. er barns and the cream put away care ‘fnily where it will be free from any odors or influences that would cause It to deteriorate, there can be 2 great economy of work about the barns. Frequently one finds the farmer fr feeding bis cattle carrying the feed back and forth over the same path when the feed rooms could be 80 ar. ranged that one process would answet the purpose better. Just bear a few of these things in mind when yeu are rearranging your farm. When you are getting the stables and the feed room ready to handle the herd during the winter just see if there Isn't some It tle simple way in which you car change things a0 as to economize or the work that will be done daring the winter. Remember that one or tw minutes saved each‘day amounts te considerable during the year, not only in time, but in labor and effort. It 1s these little convehlences, these little attentions to detail, that make farm work easier and relieve it of the dradg ery and that put it on a plane above the manual labor to which so many are prone to relegate it. Just remem. ber a few of these bints and adap’ them to’your ueeds. It 1s not the in tention to make any hard and fast rules, because every farmstead has It own problems of management to meet and they can be met only by the mex ‘who are on the ground and who know $ust what these conditions are.’ | OTICE!

The first autben- ticated outbreak in this country occur- Ted in 1833, when large numbers of hogs in Ohio died from a disease which answers the description of hog cholera as we now know it. This highly contagious disease has caused the loss of millions of dollars annually. It has been estimated that the losses during 1912 reached $50.000,- 000. One state alone is saf} to buve sustained a loss of $10.000.000 from this dread disease in 1912. It has been recently discovered that well hogs may be treated tvaccinated) with hog cholera serum so that they will not take the disease if exposed later. Such treatment is called immu- nization. This method of treatment bas passed the experimental stage and PER SOS C2-OE eeS Sar a TT Eteeet SpE fF Set BE as bees et ES SM OI GREE a Re See oo ee es ce: sees cS ecere gre Geen rants coe eee Beer go ec Earn MEE SS POE oh ea SEAS Bibel Cato tae oe SEA TRE oe Ret pena Morea g ee Sn eee es. ee $ coe mire 1S ca, Wee SS, ORE OA Sate Ss “ee at WA Ss SAY ve vor Sa ‘ Ay es: Fe SBR Sg Be | PSP RRS bee, ‘ pa 2 6 of bees PRTG Bos Se Beto, WN nn Pe WEES A oc pt ke os EE ea ae yeu Pe ese ee ae ee Pease | De EES CAME ee ON RAI TEN Poiana aes | i 7 | 2steeh IN ane | . - : = Sree a ; > : JOB PRINTING OF EVERY | |} DESCRIPTION .- | Call a round and inspect our Invitations tor Balls, Weddingsand .

TREATING 4 HOG FOR CHOLERA. is now on a practical working basis. There are several different methods for immunizing hogs cr making them immune to cholera. Immunization consists in bringing about the presence of what are called immune bodies in the blood. They enable the animal to resist such cholera germs as enter the system. These immune bodies are present in the blood of hogs that have Tecovered from cholera. Such animals ‘Are sometimes called “immunes.” A hog that has been treated with hog cholera serum without exposure to cholera at the same. time does not form any protective substances or im- mune bodies of its own. It is render- ed immune for a short time (three weeks ta two months), due to the pres- ence of’ the protective substances in- jected. Such treatment is .known as the single or “serum only” methed. When it is desired to make a hog permanently immune and there fs no ebolera yet in the*herd it is necessary that hos cholera cerms be introduced into his system simultaneously with the sernm, which protects the hog from the cholera germs injected. This is accomplished by the Introduction {nto the bog’s body of a small amount of yirus. Virns is the germ. laden blood obtained from a hog slek with cholera. It is injected at the same time with the serum. but with a sep- arate syringe. By this method the hog is enabled to develop enough protec. | tive substances of its own to render it | permanently immune. This is known as the double or “serum virus” method of treatment. Caked Udder In Cows. Caked udder in cows is also common- ly called garget, of which there are two kinds—one noncontarious, the oth- er infectious. It is frequent trouble, especially in cold weather, often due to “catching cold” in the udder. The symptoms usually appear soon after calving, and many complications often ensué, some- times resulting In a damaged quarter. Since cows are so high priced it is certainly poor economy to ‘attempt home treatment in severe cases. If. your veterinarian treats the case he can give you the benefit of a personal examination. If a veterinarian is not available the general treatment fs to give a purgative of epsom salts and bathe the udder with warm water to which have been added several table- spoonfols of sodium hyposulphite. Dry completely and rub in carbolated lard or ointment. Milk frequently.—Kansas Farmer, | GENERAL FARM NOTES. | Seed corn should always be stored on the ear. It should never be put into boxes, barrels or sacks. In, the making of cheese it should be turned in the hoops in the morning and kept well pressed until about noon. Good résults are obtained by pressing two days. The Jack of a manure spreader and other things of the Kind has driven many a boy away from the farm. Farming can be made drudgery for the boy, but it need not be so. Look at the question of farm implements from the boy’s atandpoiut if the financial ad. vantages Uo not seem clear enough. STORING VEGETABLES, - / Store onfons in a loft rather ' than in a cellar. In the‘latter | they will sprout, to thelr injury. A few parsnips. for winter use. zaay be lifted and stored in sand in the cellar, but as freezing sweetens them it Is best to leave many of them outdoors for later use. Store potatoes in bins one foot or elghteen inches deep, raised somewhat from the floor. Do not bruise or they will be Hkely to rot. Roots In the nature of salsify and horseradish | freezing does not burt, so the. main lot may stay out where - grown, but some should be deg | and put in earth in the cellar for | winter use, A few heads of cab- | bage may kept, beads down, Ina | barrel In the cellar. ‘ PROPAGATING SHRUBS. Garden Work Is Never Over—It Is 2 Continuous Performance. When the late, flowers have been cut down by the frosts it might be pre- sumed that the time for garden activi- tiles is over. But as a fact, garden work is never over. It is one céntinu- ous performance that anticipates sea- sons by months, and to this early prep- aration {s due the success of our sum- mer gardens. When the tulips are put into the ground the winter is marching along fast. but there is work to be done just at this time which will bear fruit the next summer. Just before the ground freezes hard cover up a piece with leaves or litter, or anything that will keep out the frost, for it is in this ground that any of the shrubs for whith you may have a fancy are to be propagated. Do you want hydrangeas or weisla or privet or dogwood or forsythia? If you care for these now is your chance to get a great many for almost nothing. With a sharp knife make as many cut- tings as you want plants and throw in 20 per cent for good measure. Bury these cuttings all but two inches and by spring they-will be young plants ready to plant out. This is-what is called “sweating,” or making Uttle sticks into large bushes under the snow, 4 The question of getting stock is sim- ple. .No one would refuse you permis- sion to take a few sticks off their hy- drangeas or other shrubs in the middle of the winter. Stock is possible if one has a sharp knife. The handiest and most satisfactory way to proceed is ag follows: Make a trench about four~ teen inches deep, and long enough ta accommodate all the cuttings you make. Make the cuttings a little Jong. er than the trench is deep and put them In the trench elther singly or in bundles, and pack the earth hard about them. Cover well with enough leaves to keep out the frost, When the frost has gone out of the ground throw back the blanket from your cuttings and take them out. On the ends of fully 80 per cent of all you put in the ground will be found swol- Jen rings, and from these will start the roots that are to make plants of-the sticks. Now separate the cuttings and Plant them in thelr proper locations, and it will not be long before you have the pleasure of seeing ieaves sprott, This is profitable winter work, making possible a stock of choice things for- which there is always use about a. bouse.—Country Gentleman. .A HOMEMADE STERILIZER. One For Canning Purposes. Can Bo Easily Made at Home. In all methods of canning some form of sterilizer will be found very con- venient. To be able to do with the things she already bas on hand is an important item to the housewife. Al- most every housewife has a tin clothes boiler, and this can be easily converted [, GF T rr re, Ul eee THE CLOTHES BOILER CONVERTED INTO A STERILIZER. . {nto a convenient sterilizing vat. The only things necessary are a tight fit- ting cover and a false bottom. ~ 6 The false bottom ig absolutely neces- gary in order to prevent the jars from coming In contact with the bottom of the sterilizing vat. causing them: to break during the boiling. For ‘this purpose an ordinary No. 16 wire net- ting of half inch mesh, which Is cut to fit the bottom of the boiler, can be used, If the netting is not available thin pieces of wood or almost any- thing of this kind will answer the pur pose. A patent open door steam cook- er is even more convenient than a clothes boiler. If neither of these is available a deep saucepan or bucket. lightly covered will answer the pur- pose. . Oat Straw For Feeding. Good. bright oat straw is a very good substitute for hay for winter feeding. If there is not too much dust about it, horses will do well on it for the rough- age part of thelr ration. Those who failed to stack their oat straw well this year will hnve reason to be sorry.for it before spring.—Homestead. & a ee CSc = - ~ “9 vo . , “ ~ + oe 5 4 5 a ks : * 5 consecrated men, the ends of jus-|may continue our kindly feeling|are culled for the graves of para- Special Notice i ' Che Gavanual Tribune, |i sre beginning to be served |and preference for it - dise, ere the world could pare.| Mrs. Mamie Williams, the| iis" o5000 G8 for: slgres is Established 1875 more and more each day with ro- Yours very truly, their beauty with its withering )@rtistic andold reliable hair dress-) 19 Acres fronting on the White — By JOHN H.

B. Adams, to the Sayanoah Morning News, in which he suggested that in ad- dition tq a Christmas fund for needy and deserving white chil- dreu that there be started a simi- lar one for the needy and deserv- ing children of our race. Sucha suggestion coming as it does from Judge Adams for whom we have the greatest respect and admira- tion, rings true of tke philan- thropic and kindly spirit of the man. His every act has been to serve aot only a part but the whole people when the opportunity pre- sented itself to him. The sug. gestion from the Judge is indeed atimely one. If put into effect, the hearts of many of the unfor. tunate little ones among us will be made glad during the yuletide season- We have no doubt that the suggession will be taken ur anda handsome purse raised be: fore the Christmas season begins for the purchase of toys'and othe: mirth briogiog instruments for th unfortunate, but worthy little one: among us. “If the Negro Episcopalians of the South want a Bishop of their own and their white brethren of like faith refusc them, the only thing left to do is to start'a like church of their own and have just what they want ""—Providence ‘Advaace. “It’s a pity people North caunot come South and leara something about con. aitious. There is, not aq. Episcopal church either owned or operated, that we know of by Negroes. Those here are owned and operated by white people with a small part of expense paid by our people. Further comment seems unnecessary.”—Mobile Weekly Press. The Advance speaks without reasoning and in order to get rid of a mighty question in a flippant manner. The Mobile Weekly Press is not fully informed about this church as admitted. In our city and the nearby city of Charles ton, S. C , are flourishing churches “owned and operated” by our peo- ple with memberships among some of the leading citizens of both communities. In this age of race antagonism, when the lot of our people is ex- tremely hard at times, it is indeed gratifying to note that now and then there rises above the smoke and diu raised by the Negro hating contingency of our land, the voice of some God-fearing, Christian hearted individual who believes in justice and fair play to all without regard to race or color. Such in- dividuals are the doctrinaries of a square deal to all. The policy of keeping some men up and some men down, does not appeal to them. To them mankind is a brotherhood. To note that such individuals are now to be found in nearly every paft of our country is indeed gratifying and assuring. Even in our own southland where race prejudice and race antagon- ism is thought to be at its greatest, such friends of justice and fair play and equality before the law are now to be found in rapidly in. creasing numbers. This is indeed apleasing sign of the times and augurs the coming of a better day for the Negro, not only throughout the north but through: out Dixie as well. What can bet. ter illustrate the truth of the fore going than the recent trial aind its outcome of Columbus Holcombe; a Negro, who wus charged with the killing of T. B, Austin and Ernest Chancey, two white men of «Tampa, Fla-? ‘The grand‘ jury ‘that exonorated Holcome took the ground that he was justified in de- fending his home against attack by the men who were afterwards killed. To know that there are - white men in the south who have the courage to give justice to the Negro eveu when he is charged with # serious crime against 1 member or members of their own race, is indeed assuring in this day when there is open assertion ir certain quarters that there is nc equality before the law when it 1: applied to a case in which a Negrc and a white man are involved. fhavks to these courageous anc consecrated men, the ends of jus- tice .are beginning to be served mote and more each day with re- spect to our people. This is as it should be. Meanwhileit is hoped that our people will leave no stone unturned that promises to lend good cheer and encouragement and a censciousness of work being done for a worthy cause to these stalwart men and women of the south and other parts of our coun- try who are seeing to it thata square deal be given to us, Se ne eR a rer ae ae people whose action should be held up to the public gaze, it is that class that forever seeks to discour- age any and every movement among us even though it be for the public good, in order that some private or petty grievance which they may hold against some indi- vidual may be satiated. These people are the ‘real knockers jamong us. They are genuine ca- lamity howlers, They-do aot see good in anything- Or_ the other hand, according to their way of thinking, every venture on the part ot our people whether busi- ness or otherwise, augurs failure. They have a fine memory which is always at their service, when it comes to an enumeration of the various ventures of the race that have failed. They havevery little difficulty, seemingly, in bringing to their minds many instances of mercantile, fraternal and other ‘failures of our people. In fact, anent our failures, they seem to be veritable walkiny encyclopedias or storehouses of information. Such information. they are always ready and willing to give. Approach them on any project for tlie public good and instead of joining hearti- ly iv the movement by Jending the proper. support and encourage: ment, they will begin a rehearsa of this thing or that thing tha! was once started by « member o1 members of the race and failed, a: an excuse for not promising sup: port to the’proposed project. Bott their memory ard observatior seem to fail them completely wher there is a consideration of the busi ness and other enterprises amon; us that have succeeded. Theil stock in trade seems to be to keer alive within the memory of an} and every one the fact that there have been muny failures among us. Sometimes they attempt to pose a: race lovers and supporters of ract enterprises. But even a commor place scrutiny of them by any onc will reveal their true selves. The time has come when the calamity howlers and knockers must ceas¢ their devastating but subtle on’ slaught upon the race. They mus' sooner or later be exposed. The race cannot and will not succeec as it should with a part of it pull ing it up and another purt pulling it down. ‘There must be unanimi- ty of action on the part of us all ir order for the greatest success tc come to us. With the get together and booster spirit now of such : wide scope in the city of Savan- nuh, we believe that the days of the professional knocker are num: bered. For @ long time hehas been knocking and hiding his ham- mer. Conditions are such now that he cannot conceal his selfish and destructive acts from the gaze of the people. Asis our wont, we appeal to these knockers to pul down their little implements o! destruction and join us in our ef. fort to inerease and improve the efficiency and moral status of out people.

Cleveland, Ohio, Nov, 1, 1913. Mr. Erie C. Hopwood, Managing Editor, the Cleveland Plain Dealer: ; Dear Sir—-The enclosed clipping is from this morning’s Plain Deal- er. Of the several daily papers in this city, it‘is regarded in the most friendly spirit by my people, and is read by more of them than apy other daily paper. This is the result of its fairness, as a rule, inits references to them and its uniformly broadminded treatment of matters of prime interest in them. The mongrel word “‘darky” is almost as objectionable to them as that other most miserable one, “nigger.” Both terms or mon- grel words, and others somewhat similar,- are regarded by the in- telligent of my people just as the intelligent Jews regard the like mongrel term or word, ‘“‘sheeny,” when applied them; the Irish “mick, when applied to them, etc. Ltake it that the Plain Dealer is too high class and excellent a newspaper to permit the use of any of these moigrel terms or words. Iam, therefore, calling your attention to the enclosed clipping, with the hope that those of us who prefer the Plain Dealer to any other local-daily newspaper. may continue our kindly feeling and preference for it. - .

The an- gel of death had called her to her henvenly abode.at the age of 23. She was the much regretted and adoptivedaughter of Mr and Mrs. Lewis, who have their residence on Henry street east, All what hu- man skill and the doctors had sug- gested bad been employed to check the rapid progress of a dis- ease that every year carries away so many young people in the bloom of their life, bat all was in vain. Cecilia Oreline Harrison was a beautiful character. She was adorned with the fairest flowers of virtue. The world’s enticing joys bad not yet heldher in their giddy whirl, she had kept away from them and her life during twenty three years was an innocent exist- ence of prayer, of suffering and holiness. Many friends has she left, she counted them by the score for she was endowed with such a sweet, amiable and sunny disposi. tion of mind and heart. Those friends came all to St Benedict's church, there to pay to her a lust tribute of love and sympathy, he- fore her mortal remains were car- ried to the Iaurel Grove Cemetery. |Our deceased sister is one of those many souls who, like fair flowers, are culled for the graves of para- dise, ere the world could touch their beauty with its withering contagion of sin. Handsome and pretty and many were the flowers that had been placed on her casket. the whito roe, the pure lily and the modest clirysanthemum lay there ina graceful profusion, all sweet flowers that were represent- ing the sentiments of her many sorrowing friends. Afterthe litur- gical hymns and prayers had been ‘sung or snid over her virginal re- mains, Rey E.

Mr. Davis made aspeech of acceptance that was very impressive. B.A. B. Church Rey. J. H. Rogers preached at the 11 o’clock services on last Sundsy from St. Matthew 3:3 subject, ‘Prepare ye the Way. His text was filled with gospel truths, and had its effect because of the practical way with which he ably discussed ‘it. At night Rev. Pela Penick, the African minister, preached from the 48th, Psalm, 12th, 13th and 14th verses. Both sermons were edifying. The choir sanz several new anthems, which were enjoyed. The ser: vices during this week have been well attended and the deacons feel gratified, because of the fact that the members seem to appre- ciate their efforts in trying to be- gin and end service ontime. Each church night service has been regulated to begin at 8 o’clock and conclude at 9:30 and not later than 10 o’clock. In other words no seryice of the church, eacept- ing the communion service on the first Sunday in each month begin ning at 3:30 o’clock in the after- noon, will last more than one hour and a half. Don’t forget that tomorréw is Missionary day in the Sabbath school 3:30 o’clock p-»m. The program has been arranged to befittingly suit the “Great home coming event,” which was interspersed to create more interest in the Sabbath school work among parents and children. An invitation is extend- ed to you to be present on this oc- casion, and at each service of the church. . * Men’s Club Smoker ‘The Men’s Club smoker of St. Stephen's Episcopal Church which was held in the church parsonage Wednesday: night Was n very ei- joyable affair and was attended by about 50, equally divided among members of the church and friends, < THE PIONEER OF NEGRO INSURANCE The Union Mutual Association OF ATLANTA, GEORGIA | OF ATLANTA, GEYVRGLA Rey.

Hers was the "Christian's View of Death:" "An autumnal sunset; the solo of human life overpowered by the Hallelujah chorus." "Twas the will of Him that she, the dearest earthly friend, should leave me. Where once a happy family of six children with her as their queen can be recalled, one by one they have been summoned to that Great Beyond and one alone remains. Though I cannot cease to weep for her yet will I before Him and say, "Thy will be done." "One less at home! The charmed circle broken, a dear face Missed day by day from its accustomed place; But cleansed and saved and perfected by grace, One more in Heaven." Daughter, Mrs. Janie G. Marshall, also her grand children, Mr. Wm. Henry DeLyons, of New York City. Mr. Ethan O. Marshall, of Chicago, Camilla G. Marshall, Katrina and Eloise Gibbs, SIFTINGS FROM THE SEA "The Snookums" (By E. W. S.) "He only wanted Pussy for a pillow"— Little Snook um," or their solitary child And next he'll want to tussle with a billow. Or make a Royal Bengal tiger smile. He'll want to tether kittie to an auto, And have her race the cycle on with ease, And the ma' and dad will think that they have go to. Let baby "Snookum" do it just to please. He'll want to make a grizzly bear a pony, And the parents both will think it awful funny, If other people think it isn't right. He'll want to raise the devil every minute No matter how such scenes would frighten you; He'll want to burst a bomb to see what's in it. If the deed would break the whole state into two. He'll want to bring a bronco in the middle Of a ring of children bent on peaceful play; Or make an untrained monkey play a fiddle Or an elephant dance the "Tango" in a tray. And should you raise but just a mild objection, And only say unto the "Kid," you're bad, You'll have to seek a police for protection From the fury of a highly incensed "Dad." There are "Snookums" now all o'er the state and nation, In every nook and cranny you may go; And if there's not a mighty alteration, There'll be many a little Snookum "down below" You may "spare the rod" and let your "Snookums" feel you, You may deride the tears the criminal wipes... If your "Snookums" do not wear stripes given by you, The State will make your "Snookums" wear the stripes. WILL POWER. Nothing is impossible to the man who can will. "Is that necessary?

Tea drinking was regarded as one of the feminine vices of a hundred years ago. The Female Spectator of that period observes: "The tea table costs more to support than would maintain two children at nurse. It is the utter destruction of all economy, the bane of good housewifery and the source of idleness."—London Mail. Artificial Filos. Dame Juliana Berners, prioress of the nunnery of Sapwell, near St. Albans, England, was the author of the first book on angling in the English language, printed in 1496. She gives a list of twelve files, and now, after a lapse of more than four centuries, artificial files constructed after her formulas would prove as successful as any of the up to date creations. A Protracted Service They must have long church services in a certain town where a paper announced of a certain church, "The regular services will commence next Sunday at 3 p. m. and continue until further notice." Clover. "Clover makes me dream of happy hours, of childhood's rosy cheeks, of dimpled babes, of wholesome, loving wives, of honest men, of springs and brooks and violets and all there is of stainless joy in peaceful human life. "A wonderful word is clover! Drop the 'c,' and you have the happiest of mankind. Take away the 'c' and 'r,' and you have left the only thing that makes a heaven of this dull and barren earth. Cut off the 'r' alone, and there remains a very deceltful bud that sweetens the breath and keeps peace in countless homes whose masters frequent clubs. After all, Bottom was right, 'Good hay, sweet hay, hath no fellow.'"—Ingersoll. Schoolbox Songs In Mountains Schoolboy Songs In Mountains. There is a widespread practice in the schools of Switzerland for parties of boys to go out in-charge of a master and learn geography and geology by actual object lessons. When such parties come upon a scene especially wild and romantic it is their custom to sing appropriate part songs. During a recent tour in eastern Switzerland a tourist was startled by hearing such singing on one of the remote passes and found a party of forty or fifty boys thus engaged.-London Standard.

"I understand you have taken to song writing." "Yes," replied the versatile man. "I'm told that there is a demand for something in accord with the tendency of the time; something simple and homely that shows the dominant force of the feminine nature, and which nevertheless depicts woman as claiming deep devotion." "Have you done anything in those lines?" "Yes; I have the finish of the chorus. It is as follows: "She hit me with a fence rail, but I love her just the same."—Washington Star.

JACKSON, SALESMAN Automobile Service Free --- Points for Mothers "I'm Frightened." Many children are a little timid by nature, but if the timidity is at all strong or frequent it amounts to an illness and must be treated as such. A healthy child is seldom seriously frightened. It may be startled for a moment, but that is quite a different thing from the chronic terror which spells some poor little lives. If your child is always nervous—ready to shiver and cry at a strange sound or to shrink from an unknown person or to tremble at a dark room or run from a strange dog, these signs indicate that he is not well. It is a curious fact that boys under the age of ten are often more nervous than their sisters, though girls between the ages of ten and twenty are far more nervous than boys. And it is not an uncommon thing for a young boy to run for protection to a sister practically the same age as himself. A really nervous child should never be forced to do long or hard lessons. Its study hours should be shortened as much as possible, and it should spend the greater part of the day out of doors. Neither lessons nor play should be too energetic—he should just be allowed to go his own way and amuse himself as he thinks best. Sleep is of the first importance. A nervous child cannot sleep too much. He should always be in bed before 8 o'clock at night and should be allowed to lie till' he rouses himself in the morning. It is a very bad thing for him to be awakened violently, for this gives the nerves a shock from which they suffer during all the morning hours. A cold bath in the morning is an excellent thing, provided that the child is strong enough to stand it. But if he dislikes it very much he should not be forced into it, as this would lead to another shock which would do away with all the good gained from the bath. An ordinary wash followed by a brisk rub down with a rough towel makes quite a good substitute for a cold bath. The food should be generous and simple. Very nervous children need a large number of light meals during the day, as they are not able to digest a great quantity of food at one time. It is a good plan to give a glass of milk and a buttered biscuit in the middle of the morning and another glass of milk, with a sponge cake or a piece of chocolate, the last thing at night. If the child sleeps badly and is restless you may put a couple of biscuits on the table beside his bed, so that he may eat $them$ if he wakes during the night. A comforting little meal of this kind will often send him off to sleep again, when, without it he would lie awake for hours shivering in the dreadful darkness. Above all, treat the nervous child most tenderly. Never let the others laugh at him or call him a coward, but make them understand that his timidity arises from illness and that he must be pitted and treated as gently as any other invalid. Do Not Pull Hair Back Tightly. Many mothers make a great mistake in pulling their small daughters' hair tightly back from the face. There are few faces, even childish ones, that can stand this treatment. And many little girls could grow up unconscious of features that perhaps do not come up to the average standard of beauty if their hair were arranged gracefully and softly. Nothing makes life harder for a small girl than for her to feel that her looks are noticeably unlovely—as many small girls with two tight pigtails standing at right angles from their necks and sleek hair pulled and plastered back straight from their prominent brows do feel. Through the age when bobbed hair is worn no hair ornaments save a single ribbon should be allowed the little girl. With the coming of the next stage comes the possibility of more elaborate accessories. The one ribbon can still be the rule. With it her hair still may be tied at one side and the locks that formerly were bobbed can be allowed to grow into curls or ringlets. She may wear a ribbon or silk band to bind her hair neatly to her head. She can wear a wide ribbon about her head, and this can end in a rosette or a big bow at one side. The little girl whose hair is straight has her own difficulties in this world. Straight hair looks untidy when it is allowed to hang about the shoulders. French mothers teach their daughters to weave.strands of their hair between their fingers whenever they have time to do it. This crinkling process brings out latent waving possibilities even in the most straight looking hair. French mothers, too, do not like to see the hair on the top of the head look flat and plastered down, as it often does after play or when the hat is removed. So they use a little orris or talcum powder on the top hair to keep it fluffy. The pores at the root of the hair must never be clogged with any sort of powder, but it can be used safely on the hair itself to keep it dry and light. It should be brushed on quite lightly. WINTER POULTRY NOTES. House all the fowls at once. Many colds will result from exposure at this season. Working in a clean, dry litter now will hasten the laying of your early pullets. Don't forget that you must clean house if you are to have success with the hens this winter. The best time to resand floors is August or September, but it is not too late if you can obtain dry sand. Much benefit is likely to result without any possible harm if the hens are compelled to work in clean litter for their grain at all seasons. Fresh sand or gravel is absolutely necessary to the comfort of the hens this winter. Cover wooden or cement floors at least three inches deep and earth floors from six to twelve inches. Collect a barrel or two of fine road dust. A bushel of this in a large box or frame in a sunny location in the henhouse will be greatly enjoyed by the fowls and will help keep down the number of body lice. A GOOD WORD FOR THE CROW. This Abused Bird Has Some Good Ours. We don't offer Tickets. Qualities to Offset Its Bad Traits. The case of the crow, condemned a decade or more ago as a destructive bird in agricultural fields, has been reopened by the department of agriculture and a more favorable verdict reached. The investigation made by experts of the biological survey of the department shows the crow to be of great value to farmers. After a careful study of the habits and the examination of a large number of stomachs the department experts have reached the conclusion that the crow consumes enough grasshoppers, cutworms, white grubs and other injurious insects to make him highly valuable to farmers. There is, however, one bad habit which the crow has, and that is the destruction of young birds and birds' eggs, but this trait is outweighed by the good the bird is doing for the farmer in the destruction of worms and insects. The one danger from the crow, according to department experts, lies in large numbers. If the number can be kept-down so that its normal food is sufficient there is every reason why farmers should encourage the bird to remain about their farms. Not long ago an agent of the department was watching a crow feeding in a cornfield. It seemed that the bird was pulling up young corn and carrying it to a nearby nest to feed its young. After the crow had left the nest the agent climbed the tree and secured the young birds. An examination showed that instead of young corn or the kernel of the corn the older bird had been feeding the young ones with cutworms gathered from around the corn plants. $ ^{3} $ A HANDY DINNER WAGON. The Vehicle Is Easily Made and Saves Considerable Trouble. The Utah Agricultural college experiment station has issued a useful circular on "Labor Saving Devices For the Farm Home." Among the suggestions offered is the use of the handy "dinner wagon," figured in the accompanying illustration. The circular says: "In homes where it is necessary to have a separate kitchen and dining room it should be considered necessary THE DINNER WAGON. to have a so called 'dinner wagon,' an illustration of which is given. This dinner wagon can be made by any one who knows how to handle tools at all and, as you see, is in reality a two or three story table on wheels. This should stand near the kitchen stove, and on it should be placed everything required for the meal. It can be wheeled into the dining room or to the table and then set aside until required to move everything from the dining table back to the kitchen. Think of the countless steps saved, by the use of such a simple little appliance as this. Give and Take. He who takes from the land and doesn't give to the land deals dishonestly with it. He cheats the land and it will repay him —Farm and Ranch. GARDEN GLEANINGS. Harvest the ramps Turnips keep best in a dry outdoor pit. Cover spinach with a light litter or mulch of straw, heavy enough to retain the snow and prevent freezing. Store pumpkins and squashes in a room where the temperature never falls below 50 degrees. The storing place must be dry. As soon as the ground freezes mulch the strawberries thoroughly with some light material, such as straw, hay, strawy manure, etc.-Rural Farmer. Milady's Mirror All signs of approaching age are pathetic, but sagging muscles proclaim so unmistakably the wasting of the tissues that they always seem particularly so. They are inevitable, but there is much that a woman can do to ward off these signs. As a matter of fact, any woman can grow old so gracefully that even to quite an advanced age the flesh may be prevented from sagging and lines be kept from seaming her face. If you wish to preserve the contour of the face, prevent the muscles from stretching, like wornout rubber bands, the chin from doubling or trebling itself, and to keep a strained, tired look from creeping into the eyes, cultivate cheerfulness, even if it does not happen to be natural to you. Try also to keep your illusions as long as you can and as many of them as you can. Banish worry and ill temper, turn from all petty annoyances, do not allow yourself to be the least bit interested in sad events or happenings. Sadness tends to keep the muscles relaxed, particularly those around the mouth and eyes. A woman who is sad and has a worrisome disposition will age long before her time, and all the massage treatment, with application of ointments and creams, can do little to ward off this aged look. The flat muscles of the cheeks relax, and this soon leads to deep ridges and furrows about the jaw and the chin. In turn the eye muscles are pulled down, and the result is a hargerd, unhealthful look. It is generally admitted that two persons living together often become alike in many ways and habits. Their mannerisms become so pronounced that even others notice it. The same thing may be said of a woman's thoughts. If they are pleasant they reflect in her face, and the result is a pleasing personality. A pleasant and happy disposition has a great deal to do with the making and keeping of firm flesh. A woman who is cross and becomes peeved over trivial matters usually has a firm look about the mouth and chin. This firmness strains the muscles under and about the chin to such an extent that when there is the slightest relaxation the flesh about those parts becomes baggy and loose, double chin often resulting. Keeping Nails Attractive. In nowise is neglect of the person so readily apparent as in badly kept nails. Neither can the manicure alone be held responsible for their care. On the contrary, if a woman desires she can dispense with the manicurist's services, save perhaps once or twice a month, and still have nice nails. Nails grow rapidly and respond readily to treatment. If they are ill shaped give them almond shaped tips that are most attractive by shaping them carefully with the little sandboards. Use fine pumice powder to subdue the roughness or to reduce the little ridges that sometimes appear, and employ the scissors as sparingly as possible. Use them not at all upon the nails themselves, but merely for clipping the ragged edges of the cuticle around the base of the nail. Push back the scurf skin to show the coveted "half moons" with the aid of the orange wood stick. To make white spots on the nails disappear, spread over them at night a paste made of turpentine and myrrh, mixed in equal parts, and remove the following morning with a little olive oil. A bruised nail should be plunged into hot water and held there for fifteen or twenty minutes. Many of the vaunted powders and rouges cause the nails to become brittle so that they are constantly breaking, so as far as it is possible it is wise to avoid these. Plain petroleum jelly or olive oil will answer every purpose of the pomade, and, as for rouge, it is not in good taste to tint the nails very deeply, and if they are healthy and their possessor is in good physical condition, they will be pink enough without the aid of the cosmetic. There is no harm, however, in applying a little carmine. Mix it with fresh lard, and, if desired, perfume it with a drop or two of oil of violets. Health and Beauty. "For red eyelids there is nothing so beneficial as strong salt water," says a beauty doctor. Mix this about one teaspoonful to a glass and bathe the eyelids with it. It acts as a tonic to the lids and is particularly beneficial to eyelids that are troubled with styes or granulation. One very prolific cause for women's wrinkles is the raising of brows, frowning, screwing up of eyes and mouth when talking. This habit ages far more quickly than years. When women practice facial repose there will be fewer wrinkles. The eyes and mouth are the only features intended to show expression. A famous lotion' of colonial days, known as "morning dew," consisted of one ounce of rose water, half an ounce of glycerin, half a teaspoonful of borax and three drops of benzol. The quantities may be multiplied if a greater amount is needed. The lotion is applied to the chapped face, made rough from wind or exposure, with a bit of old linen. When is a man most confused?

All ivory knife handles are apt to become discolored and to go a slight yellowy color after long use and exposure to the air. The first thing to be done to restore the color is to scrape the handle with a sharp steel scraper. The scraper should be sharpened by holding it in a vertical position and rubbing it on an oil stone until a wire edge comes on. Scrape the handle until quite white and all signs of discoloration have disappeared and then rub with No. 0 sandpaper until all scratches become invisible. Qurar Welsh Superstitions Some of the old Welsh death and funeral customs are curious, as, for instance, the opening of the windows when a person was dying. Many years ago when a gentleman at Devil's Bridge, Cardiganshire, was passing away all the boxes, drawers, etc., in the house were unlocked, as it was thought that anything fastened would hinder the flight of the spirit. This superstition is also known in Devon and Cornwall, and in Gloucestershire the door is opened at death. Cardiff Western Mall. The Name "Gas." Who first used the word "gas," and why? Merely because of the supposed resemblance of the product of burning carbon 'to the," "chaos" of the Greeks. "This spirit, hitherto unknown," wrote the experimenter Van, Helmont in 1648, "I call 'by the' name of gas, and I call it so because, being unamable, it is scarcely distinguishable from the chaos of the ancients." A glimpse at modern gas devices will show how far removed from unamability is the gas of today. SUNDAY SCHOOL Lesson IX.—Fourth Quarter, For Nov. 30, 1913. THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES. Text of the Lesson, Josh. iii., 7-17. Memory Verses, 12, 13-Golden Text, Isa. xli, 10-Commentary by Rev. D. M. Stearns. In our last lesson we saw Joshua specially commissioned and encouraged as Israel's new leader. The remainder of the chapter told of his reminder to the Reubenites, the Gadites and the half tribe of Manasseh, who had received their inheritance under Moses on the east of Jordan, that they should leave their wives, their families and their cattle and cross the Jordan with their brethren until they, too should receive their inheritance. The two and a half tribes stood by their agreement and encouraged Joshua on with good words. It is worth noting that the oft quoted text. "Be sure your sin will find you out" (Num. xxxl, 23), is in connection with the possible failure of the two and a half tribes to help their brethren to find rest. It may well apply to believers who fail to carry the Bread of Life to those who have never heard of Him. Chapter it tells us of Rahab, her faith in the God of Israel, her kindness to the two tribes, her desire for the safety of her household and her promptness in binding the scarlet line in her window (11, 11-13, 18, 21). Honorable mention of her is found in Heb. xl, 31; Jas. 11, 23-25. She became the mother of Boaz, who married Ruth, and therefore the great-grandmother of David (Matt. 1, 5; Iv. 17, 21, 22). It is possible that Salmon, her husband, may have been one of the two spies whom she hid. She certainly lied, and her sin is not excused or overlooked, but she truly repented, and there is forgiveness for all such. Josh, ill tells of the passing through Jordan, and chapter 1v tells of the twelve stories set up in the bed of Jordan and at Gilgal. We must ever keep in mind the reason why of all God's dealings with Israel, "That all the people of the earth might know the hand of the Lord, that it is mighty, and that they might fear the Lord God of Israel" (Josh, iv, 24; see also I Kings, vill, 43, 60; II Kings, xix, 10; Ps. cyl, 8). If believers were living to honor the Lord more would testify as Rahab did, "I know, * * * for we have heard, * * * the Lord your God; He is God in heaven above and in the earth beneath" chapter 11, S-11). The central object of our two lesson chapters today is "the ark of the covenant of the Lord of all the earth" (ill, 11), mentioned ten times in chapter ill and seven times in chapter iv. The central person is the living God (ill, 10), who is called by that name at least seven times (Deut. v, 26; I Sam. xvil, 26; II Kings xlx, 4; Hos. 1, 10; Matt. xvil, 16; I Thess. 1, 9, and in our lesson). The great event is the crossing through, Jordan on dry land. The great human instrument is Joshua, concerning whom the Lord said, "This day will I begin to magnify the in the sight of all Israel, that they may know that as I was with Moses so I will be with thee" (ill, 7). Those who honor the Lord He will honor. This is another third day story (verse 2; see also ii, 16. 22). It may not appeal to some, but to me all safety and victory are associated with the greatest third day event in all history, the resurrection of our Lord from the dead, for if He be not risen all is vain. Jordan signifies river of judgment. The twelve stones of Gilgal suggest risen with Christ, all reproach rolled away (v, 9). The ark of the covenant was the most remarkable type of Christ in the whole tabernacle, although every whit of it spoke of Him. What could be more suggestive of all safety depending upon Christ than the ark upon the shoulders of the priests in the midst of Jordan until everything was finished and all the people were clean passed over? (iv, 10. 11.) The priests who bore the ark had to step into the water before the waters stood up upon a heap on the one side and ran off to the Dead sea on the other (verses 15-17). This must have been a trial of their faith, unlike the dividing of the Red sea, which seems to have divided before the people came actually to it. As we go in life's journey our faith should be ever increasing, but He always deals with us as we are able, though longing oftimes that we might have greater faith and grieved by our little faith, as He often was with His disciples (Matt. vl. 30; viii. 26; xiv. 31; xvi. 5), while the only two who pleased Him by great faith were the Roman centurion and the woman of Tyre and Sidon, both gentiles. It is profitable to notice that they were to watch the ark that they might know the way by which they should go (iii. 3, 4), and we are reminded of our instructions in Heb. xli. 1, 2, to run with patience, looking unto Jesus and to consider Him who endured. In the summer of 1873 I heard a sermon on the last clause of verse 4 at St. Catharines, Canada. "For ye have not passed this way heretofore," which has been a blessing to me ever since. It is certainly good for a new year or any new departure, but it is equally good for every day of life, for every day is an untrodden way, and we never know the way and need to acknowledge Him in all our ways that He may direct our paths, for it is not in man that walketh to direct his steps (Prov. 6; Jer. x. 23).

Making the Little Farm Pay MANY city women have shown in recent years that they are capable of running a farm. In the numerous little farm enterprises which are observed around every large city women are conspicuous as owners and managers. It is evident that they are determined to grasp the new problems which surround agricultural life. 2 A number of Chicago women have given practical demonstration of the success which may be attained by their sex in the lighter class of farming and country home management. The tendency which is now so apparent toward rural life is likely to reverse the flow of population. This has a sociological as well as a commercial aspect, and the results will be largely credited to woman. Her work is of ever increasing importance in farm life. It is her province so to shape social conditions in the country that young people will be attracted to agricultural pursuits rather than repelled therefrom. Women are showing that there are large profits to be made from honey, poultry, onions, cucumbers, sweet corn, flowers and many other commodities which they are capable of handling in a manner demanded by the best trade. The certainty that prices will remain high for such products comes from the rapid growth of towns and cities. The market for flowers and general produce seems to be unlimited, and satisfactory returns are assured where proper attention is given to cultivation. Choice asters are selling in the wholesale market at $1 per 100, and as this has become the favorite product of many Chicago's women floriculturists it is worth while to consider what one can earn on an acre of land. An aster is distinctly an out of door plant. It is hardy and the most free from insects of any garden product. It is exceedingly prolific. With land fairly well fertilized an acre will produce at a moderate estimate $1,200 worth of asters. A yield of $1,400 would not be at all phenomenal. Garden produce may seem more practicable as a family enterprise. On a tract of twelve acres which she is handling with the hope of enabling her husband to give up city employment a woman makes this showing: Five acres of onions, net..... $700 Dogs from 300 hens..... 400 Sixteen-five bushels of cherries..... 175 One acre of cucumbers, net..... 125 $1,400 The five acres of onions brought in market upward of $1,000, but there was a large item of expense, chiefly hird help. Still another example is given in the following table: Six hundred pounds of honey..... $30 Butter from eight cows..... 430 Cherries from forty trees..... 30 Squabs..... 70 Eggs and poultry..... 200 Twenty hogs..... 350 Horse and young stock..... 190 $1,470 In this case $300 was paid out for wages, and the increased value of stock almost equaled this sum. GREW SPUDS IN BARREL Wonderful Example of Intensive Potato Cultivation Reported by Farmer. A few years ago an ingenious gardener near one of our eastern cities was inspired to test the -possibility of growing potatoes in a barrel. The barrel had formerly contained time, but not much of this remained. The experimenter placed in the bottom of the barrel, from which the head had been taken out, five or six inches of rich soil and embedded in this a single whole potato. As the vines grew fresh earth was added from time to time and the plants were watered whenever the soil appeared dry. No insects or blight troubled them, and early in the fall, when the vines seemed to be dry, the contents of the barrel were turned out and 125 large, fine tubers were found, all attached to the dead stems, besides a half peck of small potatoes not of marketable quality. The experiment was claimed to be a great success, and it was said that 5,000 barrels were immediately ordered for the production of the next year's crop. For this very little seed comparatively would be required, very little labor in preparing the bed, no weeding or cultivating except the occasional addition of a few inches of fresh soil, no paris greening for potato bugs or bordeaux mixture for light and the harvesting done by merely plicking up the tubers from the overturned barrel—Farm Progress. A Land Mark Your land will never again be what it was if you do not do something to keep it what it is—Farm and Ranch. His Quandary. "What I can't git through me," says Farmer Hornhand, "is how these here dressmakers gits their Ideas. Fr instance, I seen a woman on th' street that looked 's if they wasn't nobody in her clothes at tall, an' my married darter, which is a city dressmaker woman, said th' dress wuz 'too full', when it looked t' me 's if it was gosh dinged nigh empty. An' aft'ward I seen one 'at looked 's if y' couldn't 'a squeezed a cambric needle in beside 'er, an' my darter said 't won't full enough, when it looked t' me 's if 't would bust if they tried t' fill it any fuller, by heck!"—Strickland Gillilian in Lippincott's. His Fate. The race of consequential vergers is not yet extinct. Dean Pigoc has a story about one of them who, when a bishop asked him at what point he was to make his appearance, replied: "First I take the choir people to their places, and then, after they are seated, I return for you, my lord, and conduct you to the halter."—London Telegraph. Love Deaths In Japan. Suicide as a cure for hopeless love is a common expedient in Japan. "There are Japanese lovers," says a writer, "who, owing to circumstances, are unable to marry, but they do not blame circumstances. They regard their misfortune as the result of an error in a previous existence, such as breaking their promise to wed or because they were cruel to each other. Such lovers believe that if they bind themselves together with an undergirdle-and spring into a river or lake they will become united in their next birth. This suicide of Japanese lovers is called 'joshi,' which means 'love death' or 'passion death.'" Lightning and Thunder By counting the number of seconds in the interval between lightning and thunder it is possible to figure approximately how far from the observer is the scene of the storm. Sound travels 1,100 feet a second. Multiply the number of seconds by 1,100 and it will give the distance in feet from the point where the lightning flashed. For example, if ten seconds have elapsed the distance away will be 11,000 feet, or a little over two miles. It might be added that, as light and lightning travel so much faster than sound, if a man survives after hearing the crashing peal he can be sure he is safe. Remembrance of this will dissipate terror. Disturbing Punctuality. There are on occasion two points of view as to the punctuality of trains. We get one in Sir Mountstuart Grant-Duff's story of the Limerick station master's reply to Lord Gort, who had arrived just too late for the express, "Shure, me lord, the punctuality of that train disturbs the whole town of Limerick!" A Queer Trade. Mr. Chesterton once wrote a book called "The Club of Queer Trades." One of the queerest trades in real life is that of the elderly South London man who stands daily at a very congested crossroad and assists children over the thoroughfare. Some sixteen years ago he started this occupation out of sheer benevolence and has been doing it ever since. The small sums and the Christmas gifts he receives from the parents of the children serve to ekue out his pensicn.—London Globe. Big Snowfalls. The heaviest fall of snow that ever took place in England occurred in 1615. The snow commenced falling on the 16th of January, 1615, and continued every day until the 12th of March following. It covered the earth to such a depth that passengers, both horse and foot, passed over gates, hedges and walls, which had been obliterated by the white sheet. On the 12th of March it began to decrease and so by little and little melted and wasted away till the 28th of May. A heavy fall occurred in Scotland in 1620, the snow falling thirteen days and nights with little or no intermission. Took It to Herself. The superintendent of a Sunday school was explaining the sin of gossip. "Now," he said, "did any of you ever hear any one talk about some one else?" "Yes, sir," piped a four-year-old incorrigible on the front row of the primary class. Whereupon the youngster's mother, back in the Bible class, blushed furiously and made a mental valour to reprimand the incorrigible when she got him home.-Indianapolis News. His Sorrow. "You know that box of cigars you gave me on my birthday, dear?" said a man to his wife. ^ "Yes." "Well, I took them down to the office, and some one stole them." "I'm awfully sorry." "So am I—for the thief!" was the cruel remark. Too Much Sleep. Bix—They say that too much sleep is harmful. Do you believe it? Dix—That depends. Ten hours' sleep may not hurt a man in bed, but ten seconds would be ruinous in the prize ring.—Boston Transcript. Mary C. The election of John Purry Mitchel brings his wife into great prominence as official chatelaine of the city of New York. Mrs. Mitchel, who before her marriage to Mr. Mitchel was a Boston girl, is the picture of a strong, healthy outdoor woman, and she holds that every one could be healthy if he or she would take regular exercise. She is particularly interested in swimming. The wife of the new mayor elect is also a strong champion of woman's suffrage and believes that in ten years hence women will have the ballot in New York state. Although a suffragist, Mrs. Mitchel took no active part in her husband's campaign. She is more interested in the work of the woman's auxiliary of the board of health, which is aiding in the fight to stamp out tuberculosis, than in the political game. In a recent interview Mrs. Mitchel was asked whether she would insist upon her husband putting a ban on the slit skirt and the filmy sartorial effect. Here her devotion to personal liberty came out. "Indeed, I would not!" she replied. "This is a free country, and I believe that every one should be allowed to dress as she pleases. Of course if any style should be too extravagant it would bring its own punishment. Women should dress so as to make themselves most attractive, and extravagant dress will not do that." Mrs. Mitchell alluded to the fact that she liked housekeeping and would not be content without her own home. So the natural question was: "If you like housekeeping, do you like cooking?" "Shall I tell a lie or shall I tell the truth?" she replied with a charming little laugh. "I'll say that I like to cook in camp, and camping is great. I would like to spend two months in the woods that way every year. All outdoor life is very attractive to me." Incidental to her remarks about housekeeping, Mrs. Mitchel spoke of the criticism often heard of the higher education of women. Mrs. Mitchel believes that the more highly developed a woman is intellectually the more helpful she can be as a wife. "I am not a college woman myself, but I am sorry that I am not." Handy Articles For Hall Back. Handy Articles For Hall Rack. Here are two adjuncts for the hatrack or hall stand, which may be cordially recommended as easily made and sure to be very useful. One is a long handled shoehorn, to be used when putting on rubber overshoes; the other, a shoe duster, which has a use all its own after a walk along dirty roads. The shoehorn is carved or whitted from some soft, light wood, with a handle long enough to enable one to use it in putting on or in taking off overshoes, while standing erect. The duster is made from stripe of old channel and woolen cloth cut into finger-wide strips three inches long, wound round and round the handle of a discarded feather duster to form a thick, soft tassel with which to flick one's shoes on entering the house. When you have given both these articles a fair trial you will never like to be without them. "Dow Gown" In Washington. The new "dew gown" has arrived in the attractive evening wardrobe of Miss Valerie Padelford, granddaughter of General Ordway. The dew effect is given by a clever arrangement of separate netting and veils draped about the gown. One particularly fetching gown is of baby blue silk made with a slight Balkan effect, while the dew touch is given by a white silk vell studded with crystals which reaches below the knees. Still another gown has a bodice of brilliant cerise, while the skirt and train are made of blue, with a mass of blue silk net effectively setting off the brilliancy of her brunette beauty. Miss Padelford is a debutante of last season GREATNESS There is a kind of elevation which does not depend on fortune. It is a certain air which distinguishes us and seems to destine us for great things. It is a price which we imperceptibly set on ourselves. By this quality we usurp the deference of other men, and it puts us, in general, more above them than birth, dignity or even merit itself.—La Rochefoucauld. How Daniel Webster Proposed How Daniel Webster Proposed. In former times it was the fashion for a sutor to go down on his knees to a lady when he asked her to become his wife, but the way in which Daniel Webster proposed to Miss Fletcher was more modern and poetic. Like many another lover, he was once holding a skein of yarn which the lady had been unraveling. "Gracie," said he, "we have been untying knots; let us see if we cannot tie the one which will not untie in a lifetime." With a piece of tape he fashioned the half of a true-lover's knot and Miss Fletcher completed it. Slighted His Chance. At a singing contest at Frankfort, Kaiser Wilhelm, who attended, was served by several high school boys as pages. According to Jugend, he was attracted by the bright face of one of them and asked his name. "Korner, your majesty," said the boy. "And your first name is Theodore?" said the emperor, thinking of the patriot poet Theodore Korner, whose war songs stirred Germany. "I'm sorry," replied the uncourtierlike youngster, "but it's only Wilhelm." When Kalser Wilhelm broke into a hearty laugh at the answer the pago realized his missed opportunity.—New York Post. He Had a Millionaire's Privilege. They had just become engaged. "Oh, Will," she said, moving a trifle closer to him, "I am so glad you are not rich! They say that some of those millionaires receive threatening letters saying that something dreadful will happen to them if they don't pay the writers sums of money." "Oh, is that all?" replied Will. "Why, I get plenty of such letters." A Natural Cake of Soap. A Natural Cake of Soap. An odd and useful plant of our Pacific coast is the soaproot. The grass-like, crinkled leaves appear close to the ground in the spring and are known to every California country dweller. They grow from a deep rooted bulb incased in coarse fiber. If the fiber is stripped off and the onion-like bulb crushes between the hands is rubbed in water as one uses a cake of soap a plentiful lather results, as cleansing as any soap bought in a store—St. Nicholas. SMALL DUTIES Begin with small things. You cannot enter the presence of another human being without finding there more to do than you or I or any soul will ever learn to do perfectly before we die. Let us be content to do little if God, sets us at little tasks. It is but pride and self will which say, "Give me something huge to fight and I should enjoy that, but why make me sweep the dust?"—Charles Kingsley. Landser's Critic. 'A friend of Sir Edward Landseer, who accompanied him to Kensington museum on the first occasion of its exhibition by gaslight, relates that Landseer stopped short before his large picture, "A Visit to Waterloo." "I must have been mad," said he, "when I painted that." And, walking up to the picture, he placed his hand over the part which had attracted his criticism. An attendant policeman shouted his polite caution, "Now, then, take your 'ands off there!" "My good man," said Sir Edwin. "I was merely remarking how bad that was." "Then why don't you go and do better?" said the policeman, who had no idea to whom he was speaking. Could Not Prevail Uncle Luke was cautious in statement and achieved some reputation in the negro quarters as an oracle thereby. The nearest that Luke ever came to making a positive statement was in the matter of Sam. He and Sam were ordered to come up to the master's house one day and do a job of whitewashing. Both promised, and Sam stayed away. The master swore moderately. "I guess Sam's a pretty good for nothing liar, Luke," he commented. "Well, sah, I can't sayin' it," assented Luke mildly, "but it's so as I'm tellin' dat no nigger in de qua'ter give de trupe a harde wristle 'n what Sam do. Yas, sah."—New York Post. IMPERFECTION. Through the very consciousness of imperfection man gains an ideal which rises above and beyond experience. If man is dissatisfied with experience, dissatisfied with himself, he becomes aware of limits beyond which he would pass, and in so doing he reaches after a standpoint which is farther on.—Selected.

The upward line of drapery and skirt design is carried out in accordance with the prevailing Turkish ideals which are modish just now. A Remedy For Roaches. The old idea of sprinkling borax about to kill roaches is often used, but with meager success, by the housewife whose kitchen is overrun by roaches. The main point to consider is the rule of absolute cleanliness. An experienced housekeeper is quoted as saying "that only by diligent fighting of the pesky things from one year's end to the other can they be eradicated. No corner or crevice must be overlooked and, even though the varmints seem to have disappeared, vigilance must not be relaxed. Rag carpets which become saturated with grease are vermin breeders and will almost invariably cause trouble." A well known librarian, who found that his books were coming apart because of the inroads of rofiches, which fed upon the paste or glue, amused a company of friends by telling how he got rid of the insects. He made a paste of flour and plaster of paris, placing it in a small bowl in the library, and not far away he put another bowl full of water. The roaches fed upon this delectable dish with avidity, which created an intense thirst. The water near it was eagerly drunk, and a plaster cast formed inside their bodies, which naturally hardened and caused them to die. In this way the bindings of the books were saved, however strange may seem the means of their salvation. Kimono Rival. A rival to the kimono, which is so convenient and which has so long held sway among dressing gowns, has been found in the seamless djibah, so well beloved by women artists. Quite as artistic as the kimono, the new gown, which is a kind of cover-all, is perhaps more convenient, and as a substitute for a morning or breakfast gown it leaves nothing to be desired. A red shade of chocolate brown is chosen in a soft woolen stuff and is ornamented by a printed bold design in black at the hem, the yoke and sleeves. The gown is fastened en princesse down the back, and the upper part is made kimono fashion with a half sleeve. Oriental and Japanese styles are copied in the designs that trim the djibahs, and the colors are mixed, gray being patterned with crimson, green with orange, blue with brown, and so on. A Christmas Hint: A friend of mine, said a woman recently, showed me a handy little article that she always carried in her hand bag which she makes and sells for 20 cents. It consists of a piece of ribbon a quarter of a yard wide hemmed at each end and then herring boned. In the center on one end are two pieces of narrow ribbon to be used as tiestrings. These two loops are buttonholed and sewed on the ribbon, and in one are inserted about four or five hairpins; in the other loop are that many invisible hairpins, then a needle threaded with white thread under the other; then there are a few large and some small safety pins, some black headed and some white and a few white pins, all pinned through the silk. This is all rolled and tied with the narrow ribbon. It is a bandy little, accessory to the bag and takes up little room. The Feather For the Desk. 'A-drawing room desk or writing table must have a long feather to be in the mode quite as much as a lady's hat. YOUR OWN ARCHITECT. Every man's life is the herald's office from which he must derive and fetch that which must blazon him to the world, honor being but the reflection of a man's own actions shining bright in the face of all about him and thence rebounding on himself. Didn't Owe Them Anything. In the course of an educational lecture the speaker made this assertion: "We owe much to heredity and environment." When he had finished and the audience had arisen a man whose knowledge of the dictionary was limited walked up to him and remarked: "You said in your speech that we owe much to heredity and environment. Now, I never heard of that firm before, and I know I don't owe them one cent." National Monthly. A Surprise For the Teacher. "This class comprehends the meaning of words very quickly," said the Boston teacher to her visitors. "You noticed we spoke of the word 'ransom' a few minutes ago. How many," turning to the children, "can think of a sentence containing the word 'ransom?' Every one. Yes, Harold?" Harold arose proudly. "My sister's beau rau some when pa"— And then the children wondered why the class was dismissed three minutes early.—Ladies' Home Journal. The Ugliest Eust: Probably the ugliest beast in the world is a monkey, a prewsome looking animal called the bearded saki. This is so utterly gresque a beast that it would scarcely be safe to let a child or nervous person see it. The ugliiness is not of an amusing kind, but of an evil, sinister nature. The beast has a sort of beard and a countenance unlike anything else in shape and lines. The monkey itself is not particularly savage, but is so hideous that the natives of its country, South America, say that no beast of prey, however hungry, will tackle it. Even a hungry jaguar will starve in a cageful of saki. —London Mall. When M. Henri, a quaint and shabby miser of threescore and ten, died in Paris some time ago the closest search for treasure revealed nothing more valuable than two shelves of dingy looking books., which were sold, with his few sticks of furniture, to pay his funeral expenses. When the buyer of the books examined his purchase be discovered, to his amazement, two volumes of rare value—absolutely unique in the whole history of books—every page in each of them consisting of a five pound sterling note of the Bank of England. In all there were 820 pages in the two books, a neat accident of $20,500.—Exchange. Military Substitutes. Wealthy Belgians pay a little over $300 to substitutes in order to avoid military service. It Surely Would. A drug clerk in a neighboring village was called to the telephone at an early hour one morning recently. "Do you keep carbolic acid?" inquired an anxious voice. "Yes, madam," responded the polite clerk. "Well, wouldn't that kill you?" And there followed the click of a receiver being hung up.—Chicago News.
