Herr c. Eth says the tannin OF oak
bark exisds IN two forms-frst, as a tam
nic acid, which in its free state, has
reddish-white color, and second. as An
anhydrate of that acid called ''philoba-
phene," the color of which is brown-red.
The distinction between these two bod
les is familiar to tanners, who designate
the anhydrate simply as 'coloring mat
ter" and rejects bark containing too
Iarge a proportion of it on account OF
tue very red color it imparts to leather
treated with such barks.

SHATL BAes.-A bag is a capital thing
to save shawl from dust of journey.
and II of good size, Can be used Tor
holding toilet articles, etc. The best
material for making a shawl bag is
brown waterproof. Cut two round end
pieces, eight inches in diameter. ana a
piece twenty inches wide by twenty
five inches long. Stitch close together,
leaving the straight seam open nearly
all the way across, and bind its edges
and the edges of the end pieces with
worsted braid, sewed on with the ma
chine. Close the opening with three
buttons and 5atton-Loies. Stitch a
piece of braid on a band OF the water
proof two inches wide and fasten on
firmly for handles. The outside pocket
can be made of any size, or left of, but
Is very convenient for papers. A per
son while travelling will never wish to
be without one Of the shawl bags after

would suggest changes in the living IL

How Watch Cases are Made.

1t Is fact not generally known that the
James Boss Gold Watch Cases really con.
tain more pure gold than many "solid"
gold cases The demand for these watch
cases has led to the manufacture of very
poor grade of solid gold watch cases
low in quality, and deficient in quantity.
These cases are made from Al to 10 karats,
and b or karat case is often sold for u
or IA karats. 1t is NOT economy to buy
watch case 50 poor in quality that it will
soon lose its color, or one SO soft that it will
lose its shape and fail to shut tight thus
letting in dust and damaging the works, or
one SO thin that slight blow will break
the crystal, and perhaps the movement.
1t Is economy to buy James Boss Gold
Watch Case, in which NONE of these things
ever occur. This watch case is not an erper;-
ment-it has been made nearly THIRTY Years.

Moulton for one year.

yearsold, which can hardly be beaten
in this section of the country. 1t
weighs 800 pounds.

of Coos County Court which is of in

The Bridge Company have sued G. r.

would be another suit instituted.
