was good natured though not educa-
ted, "that would be about seventeen
dollars; then / lost my hat, that
would be fifty cents; then / took
considerable liquor to keep off a cold,

rashlcn Notes.

Ribbon bonnets will be worn
through the autumn.
Embroidered velvets appear among
the novelties of the present season.
Many of the new felt bonnets have
applique designs upon them.
Many of the autumn gowns have
silk shirt waists, belted and worn
with coats.
Two colors Of velvet are sometimes
combined in the new toques, with
excellent effect.
Cashmere colored brocaded rib
bons are shown in widths for bonnet
trimmings and sashes.
Miniature brooms of green gold,
with platinum handles, are worn as
earrings by ladies of political pro-
clivities.
Silver belt buckles, varying from
two to six inches in width, and simu-
lating the antique in pattern, are
now in vogue.
New walking boots are laced in
front, the uppers being made of the
material of the dress, and foxed with
russell leather.
Ostrich feathers of all lengths are
being restored to favor for trimming
bonnets and large hats for autumn
and winter.
A novel garniture for bonnets con-
sists Of three Greek fillets, of gold,
silver, or jet, banded across the top
through puffs of velvet.
Polonaises with diagonal fronts are
in high favor, and have the advant-
age of being becoming alike to slen-
der and stout figures.
Long redingotes, plated skirts,
polonaises and Directoire coats are
the leading characteristics Of the
nearly imported gowns.
A favorite arrangement OF colors
in costume is brown polonaise
over green skirt, which is bordered
with brown stripes.
Large "picture hats" similar to
those worn during the summer, are
imported in felt and velvet for dressy
autumn and winter wear.

Compotes Of Fruits.

Compotes are fresh fruits boiled
with very little sugar. They are
much used by the French, and are an
excellent mode of preparing inferior
or overripe fruits.
Compotes of Peaches: Gut ripe
peaches in half, throw them into boil
ing water for two or three minutes,
then take them out and put in ice
water; peel them. Put q pint OF
water in a saucepan, and set over a
brisk fire; let boil, and put the peach
es in. AS soon as tender take them

ter large ripe apples. Put in a pan
to stew with little water and sugar
to make syrup. Add pieces OF Gin
namon bark and lemon peel cut in
strips. Let boil. take up the apples,

thick and pour over.
Compete of Pears; Quarter, peel

of sugar in kettle with a pint of
water, the juice of a lemon, little
powdered cinnamon. Set it over q
slow fire, let boil, and skim. Con-
tinue to boil until clear and thick; let
cool and bottle. This syrup will keep
for months, and is very convenient to
have ready for making compotes.

Words Of Wisdom.

WORDS OF WiSuom-
Deal with the fortunate.
Silence is the fence around wisdom.
No man is impatient with his cred
itors.
The amenities of life make the true
beauty of living.
Life is a continual routine what
ever guise it assumes.
A smile through tears is the souls
rainbow of peace.
The simple faith of little child is
the worlds truest homage.
Good breeding is like Affection
one cannot have too much fit.
Dreams are oftimes the fulfllment
| of a prophecy within ourselves.
The power of forgiveness is the no.
blest astribute in the human charac-
ter.
To be autocratic is to be unjust to
ourselves. No man is Sufficient I'M
to himself"
Despair and happiness are so close
ly linked that each is riven by the
wealth of the other.
Getting up in the morning is like
getting up in the world. You can
not do either without more or less
self denial.
Where dam is weakened the wa
ter flows more freely-so a great
flow of words may be the result of
mental weakness.
1t is curious fact that man will
condemn all the faults in others and
excuse whatever habits he may pos
sess himself.
With many, life is like kettle of
sap in maple sugar time, each bubble
trying to swell up higher than the
other until it bursts.
Fools may say wise things, but
they do not profit by them-so wise
men may sometimes err. In either
case The nature is not changed.
Theories may be beautiful, they
may contain some truth, but exper-
fence knows all their romance is on
one side, and brings them to a test
of their own value.

sIDE-TRACKED WHEAT.
A Roast on the Primitive System
of Rail Facilities.

Wheat continues to crowd in on Min
neapOlis, and yesterday evening over
1000 cars were side-tracked waiting dis
position. Most of it is destined for the
lo.al mills, but 4 small quantity is billed
to the East. The principal cause of the
blockade is the actual want of rail facil-
titles to dispose of the wheat as 1t ar
rives. If, says the Market Record, the
crop had been more even in quality 1T
would have been different, but the
facilities are too contracted to handle
an even crop or one that would all
grade. This year there is a large per
cent of the whole that is off grade to be
provided for, making it much worse.
That off grade stuff has to be all special
bined, with the bulk of it to be trans
ferred II. IN one car to another and then
from one road to another. The roads
have not trackage enough, and the Mil
waukee. over which much of the wheat
departs. has not cars enough. Again,
the receivers here want to get state
weights on it before the cars sold to 90
east depart. The whole system of get
ting wheat around in the yards here is
too primitive. 1t is patched up to try
to suit the railroads and to suit the mill
erS, and to suit the elevator men, and to
suit the commission men and to suit
wheat mixers and wheat shippers. The
result is there is nothing in the system
of handling cars here but patchwork.
For instance, there are many Manitoba
cars loaded with wheat here to be trans
ferred to go east. The transfer eleva-
tors on that line cannot handle it; the
consignees cannot receive it except
ing through the transfer. All
people want the5 stuff to move on,
but each stands in the others way and
each wants the other to PROSTATE him
self that his own way may be clear of
all Instructions. The Star elevator
posted the following notice on change
this morning:
Until further notice we cannot re-
ceive wheat for transfer into any kind
of cars. Our shipping bins are all full
of wheat and there is so much trouble
in getting empties that we are COM
PEELED TO shut Off business of this kind.
We can take for shortage all the wheat
the trade sees fit to send u.s."
