How Any Woman Can Have a Money- Making Business of Her Own—Rug- Making is an Industry by Which the Woman Who Stays, at Home Can Make Not Only a Living but a Nice Snug Little, Fortune—How to Make Persian Rugs, Pulled Rugs Hooked Rugs and Rugs of All Kinds—One Woman's Experience. EW YORK, Jan. 10—In a four story house of Gotham, there lives a young woman who is making a for- ment. She owns a money-making business all her own; and she manages it herself without a man to help her. She was a teacher who was young and had little experience. Besides rugs she has foot stools covered with rugging; she has carpet squares; and she has also stair carpeting and all varieties of floor cloths for the diningroom. She handles no full carpets, but she thinks of going into the carpet business some years ago. Her splendid success with the rug business is her cheapness for you. Her specialty is her cheapness for you can go to her and get a very nice imitation Persian rug for a dollar a square foot; and if you win takes a expensive rug, she will get it for a great deal less, probably a third. The cost is graded by the hand work upon the rug; and on the third and fourth floors of the house you can see the workers busy making this style of that. The worker a "Hooked" Rug. It all began with the hooked rug industry. This is very successfully carried on in New England and in several other parts of the country. A great heavy piece of burlaps, or wool trelcted, is expensive. The work must be trelched up for an item. The frame now be the size of the fin- ished rug. The worker now takes little bits of cloth and hooks them through the canvas in such a way that the ends stand straight up. When the whole surface has been hooked through with bits of cloth, the rug is clipped. It is now ready for use. It can be lined or not, but is better lined. The young women found that by stalling or marking the lining she could make her rug up into patterns. So, when she stretched the next piece of canvas upon the frame she color and spot upon the frame, and and all it she made a circle of orange color. Around THE FR THE WEEKLY PRESS THE FRINGEMAKER one outer cage is made a barrier of black, looking in the pieces she followed the diagram laid out by the stains on the lining with the result that, when her pattern was completed, she had a very nice pattern. Her next feat in rug making was the creation of a wool rug, a Persian rug, and surely it looked perfectly 'real'. It was made upon a webbing stretched over a framework, which were stretched over a framework. The little bits of wool were not pulled through the threads and knotted on top, held them firm and prevented the warp from coming apart. This rug was: precisely as the Persian article. It was of wool, but could have been made of silk. Following this she set up a framework cut three inches long. These she pulled through the threads and knotted on top, marked out a pattern on her warp and followed it. When her work was done she was handsome than any Persian rug. The reason for its beauty was that she selected the Horseshoe falls of Niagara and very really the white foam looked, carried out in creepy detail. completed it was clipped on top and put in the show window as an example of the wares for sale. The making of a pulled rug, that is a rug with the bits pulled through and tied on the right side, is a long work, and the young woman found that she must have help. So, after marking out her pattern she hired another young woman who was on the road. The mading of the real Persian rug, as done in Persia, can be seen in many a Persian rug establishment, and the young woman found that she could imitate the real Persian worker by going to work with her own numble fingers. Her success in business dates from the very beginning of her industry, for she realized that you must work hard in order to prosper. But not every woman can go into the business in such a thorough manner. The top floors of the young woman's house are filled with frames and workers. Then she employs outside help, and makes a place where she can make a game. There are a large party worked out, to be competed in time; and brought to the emperium of the young woman who has gone into the rug business. For the woman who wants to go into the business on a smaller scale there are easier rugs and rugs that take up less space in the making and cost less money. Some of these are in the Egyptian rug so called because it is striped; and because it is light and because of a certain resemblance to the common rugs which you see when in Cairo. If high price Cairo rugs, --- Its basis is a heavy but cheek striped shirt. It is often white with colors. If you cannot get striped burlaps there come heavy rushes in bright colors. You can wear them with colors which make excellent foundations for floor cloths. These are particularly cheerful. They are very bright and because they are quickly made and, being so cheap, can be thrown away when no longer needed. To make such a rug select a material fifty-four inches wide or the trimming of the stripes. You can cut out the stripes ready for applying to the rug. In making an Egyptian rug it is important that the rug be cut out. At one end there should be one design which should be quite different from the pattern of the rug. A prayer rug is always interesting. Make the pattern so that there is a pattern which matches the colors spot upon which the chin of the decor PRINCESS MARIE JOSEPHINE OF BOURDON Now lay out two triangular pieces upon which the hands can lie. This forms the basis for an Oriental prayer rug and, by following out any regular design which may come into her head, the woman, maker can secure something serviceable, and good. Rugs of this kind sell readily and the rug-maker, after she has experimented in her own home, can go into the homes of her neighbors and sell her goods for such rugs go off like hot cakes. It is well in rugmaking to have the pieces all new. If old and faded ones be used their color can be restored by dipping them in dyes until they are all of the same tone. The blue of the NGEMAKER. oars are the yellow or the gottchenfond, the green or the spinnel, all are good colors to be used in riggingaking. The home dye pot can be used for all the oars and knitted up as fast as the rug calls for them. How to Make Fringe. Every rug calls for a fringed edge, and the oars are in all in as other things, there are tricks in making them.

Jan. 2.** This year of greece is going to see some changes and serious contacts between monarch and monarch behind palace doors. This prospective rulers is becoming so difficult that the combined wives of all the monarchs and ambassadors at hand to help think are carefully equal to solving it. The real enemy is really embarrassing situation is to let each young heir to a throne have his way and the next one is to be as if that would be the rule with the next crop of heirs, but the present objects isn't educated up to it yet, and no amount of onception on the palace doors will be able to effect the necessary change while Europe's thrones hold their present. So it becomes imperative to find bridges for the heirs to the king of Spain and for UNCLE S the lesser young royalties now in the marriage market among the European princesses. "An Ugly Lot. One trouble is that all the royal young folk are so scared of being diminished the wits that crowned heads contain until such pestilence wielded and Dr. Forbes Winslow are beginning to picture to themselves a future world ruled by a royal prince or princess in all Europe who is not a cousin in some degree to every other, have the same religion and enough traits in common to make them sympathetic have as much of a fact that doesn't promise well for the future of monarchical institutions.

Their heavy, stupid faces become a source of embarrassment and describe their beauty. Religious Discourses. There are two princesses, one western and one Continental Europe, and between them they can muster no more for marriage to resisting monarchs. Six of them belong to the Austrian family, and two to the deposed house of Hanover and the other ones to the minor German family. Fourteen of the twenty are Roman Cotholics, four are Protestants and two are Catholics. Of course, greatly reduces the number who are eligible as the brides of the two.

Cases in which the Russian monarch nounced their religion are, however, exception among the Habsburgs, the Bourbons and other sovereign houses that most urgent political reasons change their religion. There is not one single contender. There is no single person who has shandoned her faith in order to contend for other persuasion, so that the Russian and German heirs will have to seek their contenders. There is also almost unknown among O THE NEW YORKER nothing uncommon for a Protestant princess to embrace a new religion for political-matrimonial reasons. The present carolina of Russia and the crown princess of Montenegro were Protestants, who have accepted the Orthodox Greek faith for the sake of their husbands. An Australian Beauty. There are only two royal ladies of the Orthodox Greek faith who would be eligible as the bride of the Russian heir-presumptive—one of them is his cousin, a Russian grand duchess of scanty personal attractions, and the other is Princess Xenia of Montenegro, the daughter of the reigning prince of Montenegro and sister of the queen of Italy. Princess Xenia is now twenty-one years of age and a brunette beauty of semi-Oriental type. Occasionally obscure portraits of her have given a poor idea of her personal attractions, but I have at last obtained a genuine and recent photograph of her, and will leave it to any reader if she is not as beautiful as all princesses ought to be, but so few really are. THE INDIAN'S INTERESTS IN THE WORLD RENSE for the rustic limitations that might be expected in the daughter of a prince who still dispenses justice to his subjects under an ancient tree in front of his modest residence. Her lineage is of the best, for she can trace her descent back to a prince of the tenth century, and her ancestors have been recognized as rulers of Montenegro for the last 200 years. Her sisters, too, have made good matches, for Prince Nicholas of Montenegro has been remarkably successful in arranging matrimonial alliances for members of his family. One of his daughters is queen of Italy, another is a princess of Battenberg, and two are Russian grand duchesses, so that Princess Xenia might well be selected as the future empress of Russia. the ougene. all sorts of miserable the people it love with the beauteous Xenia but the members of the royal house of Montenegro gre as shrewd and —by in maniac-making as the royal queen of England and Russian earrings and the king of Greece, besides various queens he crowned eventually.

The Protestant princess Victoria and German princess willing to adopt the Orthodox Greek faith. Another young beauty who stands high in the imperial marriage mart is Archduchess Marie Henriette of Austria, who is nineteen years old and a distant cousin of the Emperor Francis Joseph.

They represent a poisonous breed of serpent that bears the name of the rhinocerous vliper. This title has been given it from the circumstance that above each nostril is a little elevation of hard skin in the shape of the horn upon the breast from which it takes its name. Apart from this feature, and its magnificently colored skin, it bears all the characteristics of the family of the vlipers. It is disproportionately short and stumpy-bodled, and has the broad and flat head that marks those reptiles. In the strangeness and beauty of the patterns it is not equaled by and of the known species of serpents. In general the upper surface is in black, running into dark green and brown. The under part is white or yellow gray. Along the back from the rear of the head to the point of the tail there is a row of deep brown: rhombold-shaped spots, bordered with deep-yellow lines. Where these touch the spine they become sand-colored or red-dish yellow. In the fore and after part of the head, the spines are brown-gray rectangles is enclosed. In the right-field between each two of these rectangles a figure like an hour glass is formed by the junction of the points of the rhombl. Each green boundary line is accompanied on the under side by a bright blue stripe in the form of a festoon. Below every hour glass figure lies a triangular yellow-brown field, wildening toward the stomach. Through its middle drains a vertical stripe of golden yellow and dull blue. Between each of these two fields rises on the side of the stomach a much-depressed triangle marked with mixed red, yellow and dull gray shadings. The first of the rectangles stretches from the forepart of the neck to the skull. The latter is gray-red and carries a black through the middle. The temples and the back of the head are spotted with black flakes. In Africa the flinchocer viper is common in the forest. It is known to Damaraland. It is a nocturnal in its habits even in a greater degree than any of its relations. It never moves from the lair of its prey. It does not first bite its prey and then wait for it to first bite its prey. —Ex. **Wisdom's Whispers.** When a woman writes a letter of sympathy, she usually exhausts her store of *text* expressions.

Whitebach, who are tainted with insanity through and through. Insanity has been in the family for three centuries, and has been cultivated by repeated intuitions of the world. The members of the house of Wittelbach are, as a rule, either genufes or fanatics, and those who live have been genufes have often developed insanity in later years. The mad King Louis of Bavaria, who was Wagner's son, is known to be a man who is mad, and the present king of Bavaria, who is, of course, also her first cousin, is inflicted with insanity of the most terrible kind. In these circumstances, the most beautiful of European princesses may well experience difficulties in making a good match. "It's future Empress." England has fondly hoped that the crown prince of Germany would choose his bride from among King Edward's nieces, one of whom, the young Princess Alice of Albany, has been selected for him time and again by English chronifers. The princess isn't what you would expect to see in the world. In the time of Alice, and would come nearer to the German emperor's idea of a royal haustraun than any haughty Austrian or Russian princess. It seems more likely, however, that the crown princess will marry another second cousin, Princess Alexandra, of the same name, than will be found between the Hohenzollern and the Hanoverians, caused by the fact that the former family seized the throne of the king of Hanover, Princess Alexandra's grandfather.

SATURDAY, JANUARY 17, 1903. The press dispatches from Angleton, Tex., Wednesday, state that: "Late last Tuesday night several men entered a cell of the county jail in which Ransom O'Neal and Charles Tunstall were confined, with a number of other Afro-Americans, and shot and killed the two men. The other prisoners were warned to cover their heads with blankets, which they did. The bed clothing of the cots occupied by the murdered men caught fire, and O'Neal had an arm and a leg burned off. The murdered men charged with the murder of County Attorney Ed C. Smith at Columbia several weeks ago. Now, we ask in the name of humanity, justice, law and order, is not this a wanton, unpardonable, unjustifiable, outrageous butchery? These men may have been guilty of the murder alleged; but, if they were it does not justify their murders in their actions. The men, or murderers, if you please, were in jail awaiting trial before a jury of their peers, as vouchsafed by the constitution of the United States for citizens of the United States, and as these men were born in the United States, they were unquestionably citizens, and entitled, under common law, to all the rights and privileges of any other citizens. We do not plead for, any clemency, for any favors whatever, to be shown toward Aro-Americans accused of crime. We are willing that the pound of flesh shall be paid as called for in the bond, but we do most cheekily protest against the all too frequent practice which obtains in the South—and, alas, in the North too, to an alarming extent—of white men taking the law in their own hands and wantonly, inhumanly, barbarously butchering men and women just because there is a visible admixture of African blood in their veins. All the Christian virtues in the category seem not to be inherent in the Caucasians, as is their egotistic boast. For we find ourselves almost petrified with horror when we read of these outrages, and wonder how alleged human beings can so trample God's laws under foot. Though there are some whites who make open profession that they believe blacks are not human beings, but brutes devoid of souls, we do not believe they express the true sentiments of their heads and hearts when they make such assertions. And if there are a few who are really honest in such devil-emplanted convictions, they represent such an infinitially small number of their fellow Caucasians that they cannot be responsible for all these crimes of which we speak. Therefore, how these good, humane, Christian, God-fearing, God-loving paragons of human perfection, represented by the masses of the whites can sit supinely by and see their brothers commit such unpardonable crimes against humanity is beyond our comprehension. It took this country a long time to awake to the horrors and crimes of human slavery, and it cost many precious human lives, which would not otherwise have been sacrificed upon that altar. This state of affairs existing at the present time, which involves the peace, happiness, aye, the very lives of about 10,000,000 of the most inoffensive, peace-loving, law-abiding, loyal citizens of this country cannot much longer continue. And, if the good people of this country do not in some way put a stop to it, the hand of Almighty God will be brought to bear, for hath He not declared: "Vengeance is mine, I will repay!" A. A. Howlett, a bank president of Syracuse, N. Y., proposes to celebrate the eighty-second anniversary of his birthday, February 17th, and has invited about 100 widows, to help him. No man will be there save the host. Every widow whose husband Mr. Howlett has known has been asked. Mr. Howlett says: "Widows are too often left out of society. I've been in business ever since 1840, and I know a great many widows. There'll be widows from New York, Chicago, Duluth, Oswego and other places. And they'll be prominent people. We won't have a man in the house. I am going to have a ladies' orchestra, a woman caterer, women waitresses and I am looking after a woman to take care of the furnace." Mr. Howlett will banish his son and grandson from the house. This is a real novelty, but we opline the "widdies" would rather have about five hundred young men present so they could enjoy themselves. President Roosevelt is certainly the right man in the right place. His attitude in the Indianola, Miss, postmaster case has further endearded him to the people who are for fair play to all regardless of race or color. He standing by a federal officer who has been intimidated and forced to resign. He seems to have the necessary backbone to do the right thing at all hazards, and it is very pleasing to all lovers of law, order and justice. Long live President Roosevelt! The selection of Hon. A. J. Hopkins as the caucus nominee by the Republican members of the legislature at Springfield, Wednesday night, makes his election as United States Senator from Illinois assured. Hopkins is a man of ability and his long service in the lower house has prepared him for the place he will occupy in the upper house of Congress. He has a brilliant future and possibly higher honors may be his. The appointment of William H. Lewis as assistant United States district attorney in Boston by President Roosevelt is more evidence that he means what he says when he declares that fitness will be the principal recommendation for an applicant for office. Lewis is a graduate of Harvard, and is every way fitted for the position. Long live President Roosevelt! The coal barons are being taught a much needed lesson by the way the people are helping themselves to the coal which they are trying to sell at prices prohibitory for poor people. The government too is taking a hand in the matter. The trusts of all kinds need to be looked after, and the hoped that the present congress will reach them some way.

Webster's rapidly changing mood from optimism to depression, and which he concealed with the patience of a small group of people, the timeless, particularly those which relate to his personal finances in the days when he was harassed by creditors. That Webster was not a debitary, but a political man, one of which, who will read them. They testify that he was a man of sound business sense, as well as a great intelligence, as a good one of which is capable of embracing almost every variety of human interests. Webster's unfortunate financial complications have been topics of much more than the only minor to find out, after perusing these letters, that the man who stood for the commercial interests of New England and the small business sense, ability possessed sound business sense, and would have been one of the wealthiest men of his day had he devoted more of his time to the public, and he was the public weal. Investing heavily in Western lands in Ohio, Michigan and Minnesota—diverting his surplus earnings to these purposes. He was at the time in the great and momentous questions then vexing the statemanship of his period, his attention to his personal consort's greatness and the holding with�atness eloquence the Constitution of the United States, and the writing to pieces the falacy of the subprudent of the United States, and the indicated by Hayne and Calhoun with commanding ability. These letters show that Mr. Webster, conscious of his existence, is a great character of his country, needed that critical time in the country's history, deliberately consecrated himself to the public weal in almost total effacement It is interesting to note in view of the insular interests of the United States at this time, eventuating from the Spanish American car.

Dear Sir: I have had very frequent occasions to answer the same inquiry as that which you propose, me in your letter to the 28th of the month. The speech to which you refer is my composition. The congress of the Revolution sat with closed doors, and there is no report of the speeches of members of the shopping shop Association, to independence. We only know that John Adams spoke in favor of the measure with his usual power and fervor. In a letter written from Philip, despite the poor social situation, he said it was an event which would be celebrated in time to come by bonfires illuminations, and other modes of public refociting. And as the day of the meeting of bells, he asked the occasion, and being told that it was the 4th of July, and that the bells were ringing for Independence, the exclaimed, "I am dependent." Then the{}{}holders were used in composing the speech as being characteristic of the man, his sentiments, and his manner of speech and education. All the rest is satires. It must not be supposed that Mr. Webster did not find time from his manifesto to write letters show that he was a sportsman—want in for hunting and fishing, with zeal and passion, but studied them, and knew their history, and he was quite as enthusiastic about them as Says the author: "Probably nothing is so characteristic of the writer as Abbott, his amanuensis, which tells of the vast literary plans of his father over the fields of thought, found dulling themes on every side. The plants shown are the physical energy—theutless patience and the sacrifice of the world that would have had to be wanting.

THE ADVENTURES OF M. D'HARICOT. The Adventures of M. D'Haricot. By J. Forrest and B. $150. New York: Harper & Brothers. This is a volume of ludicrous situations, ascribed in a humorous style, encountered in England by Monsieur D'Haricot, a brench political refuges. D'Haricot was a member of the Une. Deux. Trois League, or the U.D. T.S., as they styled themselves, "the last hope of royalty in France." In the narration of his experiences he writes, while in England: "I shall tell you since the affair is now no secret, and as it hereafter touches my narrative, I was a Royalist, an adherent of the rightful King, of France. I am still; I boast it openly." But at that time a demonstration had been premature, a government was alarmed, and I had fled. The truth is that I was already in mourning for myself. The prospect of entering history by the martyr's postern had seemed noble in the heat of action and the excitement of intrigue. Now I desire only my liberty and as little public attention as possible, I commend this personal experience to all conspirators. M. D'Harfoot encounters an English man in marriage with him, "self-repressed, self-restrained and reticent", and after many conversations with him, "self-repressed, self-restrained and reticent", which resulted only in repiles of "yes" or "no", accompanied by that "yes" or "no" he answered, "later out I recovered that this generally means nothing, and is in fact, when each Englishman carried his "Knuckle-duster" (a weapon use in "bor" or "bor" attention was diverged). is thanks to this peculiarity, that they now have a portion of the globe, but the surviving stare is not a reassuring spectacle. In the volume, one discovers sketches of English life, drawn with the master hand of the author, one discovers sketches of the most pathetic situations, and deplaining them with a skill which puts the author easily in the front rank of humor. M. D'Haricot is not in England very long before he is drawn into a duel, which is described with all the wit and visibility of the immortal combat in which Bob Acres found himself involved. Some of the so-called "including of the story" recall Mark Twain's "Tinnocots Abroad," and are well capable of eliciting the merry ha! ha! from anyone, however grave or pessimistic. The innumerable, funny situations through which of D'Haricot passes, and who is and related with such a charming simplicity of style and literary adroiness make Mr. Clouston's work a very desirable addition to the library of any one. MEMOIRS OF A CONTEMPORARY. Memoirs of a Contemporary. By Ida Salas, a Transcribed and edited by Lionel Strachey. Illustrated. $2.75 net. New York: Doubleday, Page & Co. This is one of the most interesting volumes of the year. The authoress lived during the Napoleonic era—the approximately associated with Grouchy, Moreau and Ney and being an adventures of remarkable personal daring, and possessed of unusual intellectual powers, she has transmitted to the students of French history character sketches of Napoleon's great Lieutenant. Authentic. The period immediately succeeding the close of the French Revolution was one of the most important military movements in history. The overthrow of the rotten Bombardy dynasty, and the rise of the all time imperilable interest for the student. For this reason, no less than the historian of the novel, the writer, the Memoirs of a Contemporary' is a book which one lays down with regret that she had not written. The volume is profusely illustrated with a large number of images and a lithograph of the writer taken at the age of fifty years' disclosures a face of German General Erich Elliot, whose viridity of expression she possesses in a marked degree. Pichurgh, the "Vanquisher of Holland," was a man of great courage, meanor, cautious in his speech in spite of the frankness he affected, and much more generous in his speech. Of General Moreau, the masterful strategist of the French, the woman he was fondest of in all the world could not have made him a general, and devoted friend to those whom he liked. "Towards strangers or people whom he liked," Moreau said, "I followed Moreau to Italy, she summarizes his campaign there as follows: "Morrow, we will retreat through Milan and Piedmont, and army together. At the head of twenty-five thousand men he met as possible and retreated through Milan and Piedmont, and all the fortresses, beat the enemy several times, and through his skill and courage, captured the numerical superiority of no essential skill. At the battle of Eyleau in Germany he was wounded. Just before this battle she met Marshal Ney for the first time and he told her, "I'm the Red Lion" which we quote in part. Had he been less weqeue to Ney then he would have hosted that set in from the first day of the war his sense of duty would still be an inexplicable riddle to me. But in essayess he most generous and loyal natures ever found in a war, he defects. Under manners which were at times uncouth Ney wore the gentlest and most modest clothing and his "Ney has been calminated by persons accusing him of acting upon premedicated men." The facility in byrng was utterly incomprehensible which always distinguished him. If he went so far as to forget his obligatory public opinion that condemned the Bouron rule, that he saw the welfare of his The Great Coralican himself is told of by this very remarkable woman and the one with which he is infinitely more highly improbable stories told of Napoleon's wonderful genius. He is to which she was an eye witness is described with power and vividness; and are also many in the rise and fall of the career of the greatest military and political leader in the history of the world.

THE NEGRO The Negro in Revelation, in History, and in Citizenship. By Rev. J. P. J. Papyrus, Louis. N. D. Thompson Publishing Co. This book is written along original lines. It is a book of humanity and patriotism. It is well calculated to promote good-feeling and patriotism, and between white and black. The fact is recognized that they are neighbors—that they occupy the same country, and that they share a mutual understanding and a mutual good- feeling. The fact is recognized that it will impress the Afro-American man and the Afro-American boy with the positives of an array of success in life reached by republican values. It raises the white reader with the vast aspirations of every Afro-American man and the Afro-American boy to press the white reader with the vast strides made by the Afro-American since his arrival in the United States, such as to win for him universal respect and a universal confidence in his future. It affection and good-will for the race. The association of the name of Gen. John E.

The World of Words. Dr. Haley Husted Bell, 12 mo. gilt. pop. Ph. 300. 1.50 p. in New York: The Grafton Press. In the Introduction Dr. William Colby. Composition of the words of the words of the word of language, and upon language depends social integrity. See the mighty importance of words. Is it that the word of language begins with the words being the red corpuscles of language, it follows that the smaller one's vocabulary is, the more anemic will be his bright silden. Dr. Bell is a poet and understands the value of words as only the few do, and in producing this work he has merely justified his own fitness as this line. Some persons are correct to a grammar, others as to rhetoric. A wrong use of a preposition or verb may be quite offensive to the trained grammarian, the more effective a application of a figure of speech offends the accomplished taste. There was a grocer who was very accurate in his grammar. He was very well known as his proper language, and took some trouble to instruct them. One day a customer called and said to him: "What's eggs?" Today the report said. "Eggs," he says. "Darn glad to hear it, the last I got here were than half chickens." In "The Worth of Words" Dr. Bell attacks his words, vulgarisms, every-day errors and slang in a concise but clear manner, and many errors of speech which are often made by persons of ineligible or not corrected by a careful effect. Ph. Book. --- Old Plantation Days. By Martha Gielow. Illustrated with striking character photographs, by John W. Ott. $1.26 net. New York. R. H. Russell. The success of "Uncle Remus," Paul Lawrence Dunbar, in Negro dialect sketches has caused many writers to turn their attention to the Negro of the South, and they have given us "studies" of varying merit. A more delightful contribution has not been made to the literature which seeks to describe life in the Black Belt, especially as it was "befo" de wah, than "Old Plantation Days." The book is a collection of original dialect stories said to have been taken from the lips of an old black "mammy," and which do not belie their alleged source. The stories are all worth the telling, and the dialect is neither difficult nor exaggerated. Illustrated with striking photographs from living types.

These are now neatly sewed together and the whole is encroached on rugs, using the same stitch. The big tip there can be used for a felt, cotton, flannel, calico, and the left-overs of dresses, washed and dried, but only that they be clean and bright. The Knitted Rugs. There should be enough black in every rug to pull the colors together; and some of the prettiest of these crocheted rugs are made of black and scarlet with dashes of yellow. The drug maker who is going to prosper by her work must have a constant eye for color. She must remember that, when the rug is placed upon the floor, the fine selection of the drug is the same as the drug, as it is as a成一. The knitted rug is managed much in the same way. These rugs must be knitted very closely and then lined. They are not nearly as valuable as the rugs for use in the area of the area. They are more easily made and require little or no artistic skill. The application of figures and of cut out roses to a burlap rug forms a rug industry of its own. To apply the handsome figure, the cost of the product is about $100.00. The drug, and the material, and then lining the rug and decorating it with homemade fringe, you can get something which wears forever and looks very nice all the way. The rag carpet rugs, of sacred memory, are now made all of a color. For this all the rags in the house are dyed red and when there are enough of them gathered to make the right way of the rugs. The drug is placed in a place at either end. If made in this manner the rag carpet rug looks very fine indeed. It makes a good scarlet stair carpet and it can be with the best over the plainest of stair felt. But the rugs that seem to have the most money, are the "hooked" rugs and the pulled rugs.

The silky rugs are always the highest in price simply because they are many of the home rugmaker can make hanging rugs also.

President Fortune Formulates it on the Ground Leaving the Country, To the Officials of the United States National Afro-American Council. As I shall leave the United States shortly for the far East, to be absent, perhaps six months', my last thought in doing so is the Afro-American Council, which I believe will one organization of the race whose primal object is the preservation and proper defense of the civil and political rights of the Afro-American people. My best thought, sympathy and effort will be devoted to the twelve years—dating from the organization of the National Afro-American League, at Chicago, January 15, 1890, to the paramount necessity of effective race organization for mutual protection interests and for mutual interests. Effective organization is the only supreme power in modern society. The greatest misfortune of the race has been its refusal to recognize and live up to this principle of social security and progress. We have to do for us what we could and should do for ourselves. Mankind is selfish by nature and the enforced conditions of AN EXCEPTION. He—All the world loves a lover.

What is everybody's business is nobody's business, is a faithful old saw. The main difficulty with and drawback to the National Afro-American Council today is that it has no substantial basic organization. The masses of the people do not know sympathy and money. Its annual conventions are composed of fraternal delegates and delegates representing business and professional interests, who are willing to pay $5 for participation in the event, and who choose to be active members when the convention adjourns sine die. The official board of the organization really constitutes the only membership of the National Council from among the convention to the assembling of another; with the exception, of course, of the state council in California, which has changed from the Afro-American League of California to the Afro-American Council of California, where the convention held since the adjournment of the National Council, at St. Paul, last August. No organization constituted as the National Afro-American Council is today, as to its basic membership, can act as a representative of its founders and expected by the people at large. Believing that my action in this matter will be approved by the next annual convention, I will act as a basic membership of the council, and basing my action primarily on Article VI of the plan of state organization of the constitution of the National Afro-American Council, the following plan of local organization: 1. Ten persons shall be competent to organize a local council circle to be offered as provided for in Article II of the by-laws for local organization the local council is boarded in membership to ten persons, such local circle to be entitled to one delegate in state conventions upon payment of assessment provided in Article XVIII of plan of state organization and to one delegate in annual National Council convocation upon board of the tax provided in Article III, section 2, of the constitution of the National Afro-American Council. Professor Surefoot, the Wireswalker—Here we are stranded 800 miles from home. How can it ever get back? Manager—Oh it ought to be easy for you. Walk the wires and travel at night, when it's only half rate. D. 2. Women may organize separate local circles upon precisely the same conditions prescribed for men in specification 1 herewith. 3. Ten circles may organize a state council, as provided by Article IX of the national constitution. 4. I sincerely hope, in every community where women congenial to each other and interested in the welfare of the race, that they will at once organize a local council circle. 5. am reasonably certain that the women of the race will take hold of the work. When the council meets next year at Louisville there should be at least five hundred circles reported and represented. 6. William A. Pledger, first vice-president of the National Afro-American Council, is hereby authorized to act as president during my absence. Dated at Redbank, N. J., December 1902. --- REV. IRL R. HICKS 1903 ALMANAC. To say that this splendid work of science and art is finer and better than ever, is stating it mildly. The demand for it is far beyond all previous years. To say that such results, reaching through THIRTY YEARS, TEARS, and unimaginous accomplishments, usefulness, is an insult to the intelligence of the millions. Prof. Hicks, through this great Almanac, and his famous family and scientific journal, WORD AND WORKS, is doing a work by any other man or publication. A fair test will prove this to any reasonable person. Added to the most luminous course in astronomy for 1903, forecasts of storms and weather are included in the year, all charmingly illustrated with nearly two hundred engravings. The price of single Almanac, in chasing postage and mailing, is THIRTY CENTS ALMANAC for $1.00 a year.
