The girl without brother is especially
to be pitied. She is the girl who IS never
certain of getting the pleasures of life un-
less she is very attractive. OF course she
has no brother who she is certain will take
her everywhere; she is apt to get a little
hit vain, for she has no brother to tell her,
as only brother will, of her faults and
mistakes. 1t is only the somewhat doubts
ful tact of u brother that announces,
Il wouldn't walk up street with you
in that frock." and the girl whose brother
says this to her may be certain that he is
only expressing the opinion of other girls
brothers. He may not do 1t in the most
gentle way, but he does tell the truth, and
if you ask him why paying a visit to an-
other girl is more desirable than to ono You
know, he Will sit down and look at you, and
then he will say: ''Well, you see, it is
Just this way: From the time you get there
she is a nice girl who gives you pleas
ant welcome and yet doesn't gush over
you. She is entertaining, and yet she has Z
fashion of putting down nasty gossip or
silly talk among whoever is there. She IS
a restful sort of girl; she is not always
wanting to do something that tires ycu half
to death and where the game isn't worth
the candle, and when she says good bye to
you, you feel certain that she is pretty glad
you came, and that she will be glad
to see you another time, but that she
doesn't look upon you as the one and only

Banking for Little Folks.

l know two young married people who
instituted the practice of reserving all the
scent pieces that each received in making
change as the special property of the little
boy that had come to them.
One of Mr. Stockton's ''ginger-jars'' al.
ways stood upon the mantel, and its cover
came off religiOuSly after every mercantile
transaction that left q scent piece in the
docket of either parent; and one would be
surprised to see how fast that little jar filed
up. In it was also placed any piece Of money
that grandpapa or grandmamma bestowed
upon the small bit of n man. Whenever
the contents amounted to s. this sum
was placed in savings bank to gather in
terest as the ball increased in size And
such ball does increase faster than one
would think-in this case at the
rate of about So year The
interestQ and the various prin-
cipals will make quite little fortune when
the boy is young man and ready to begin
life for himself, either to start him in bust
ness or help him through college, whil6
the parents will hardly feel the expense
at all; for tve-cent pieces often melt mys-
teriously and unsatisfactory if they
remain at large in ones pocket. 1t is Just
as wise to save in this way for the little
girl. for she will need it sometime as much
as would boy, either TO make her feel a
Dit independent when she is married or to
help her TO an education.
A ginger jar is an ornamental article
for the mantel. Wouldn't it be good idea
TO have one and dedicate it to the baby?

galloon and having on them deep gold
buckle, will be worn all winter. Ihey are
not expensive and will look well with
cashmere or black stuff dress OF any sort
Very young girls who are permitted to go
to informal parties usually have PLAIN skirts
of light silk, or nuns yelling, finished
around the bottom with festooning of
crepe de chine The bodice is draped one,
and should always be high at the neck and
long in the sleeves. The Valois sleeves,
that come in point down over the hanos,
will be found most becoming, as young girls
are apt to be slender of arm and a little
awkward of hand
For evening wear at concerts or the opera
nothing is quite so pretty as tiny bonnet
formed of a wreath of roses with black rib
bon velvet strings to tie them IN position
They are usually placed rather well for
ward on the head and pinned at the sides
to the hair by tiny little pins with white
heads.
Blue and white striped silk blouses will
be worn during the winter with the cut
away jackets of blue cloth. 1t is always
supposed that over these will be assumed
long cloak or cape that will hide the little
jacket entirely
In making up the plaid costumes for the
winter plain color is, in almost every in
stance, combined with the plaid in one way
or another. Capes Of the plain cloth, high
puffed sleeves of it, pocket laps and some
times smooth band about the edge of the
skirt placed just as fur is, viii be affected.
In many instances coat of the plain cloth
is liked, and really when the plaid is one
that permits the use of blue or green or
dark scarlet plain cloth coat with or with
out fur trimmings, it will be found to give
an air of special style to the gown.

Three Winter Desserts.

A good dish of orange fritters can be
made by taking four oranges. Peel them,
taking off all the white pith without break
ing into the pulp; divide in four or five
pieces, through natural divisions of the
orange; dip each piece into common batter
and fry in hot lard. Serve on napkin with
powdered sugar.
A GOOD PLUM PUDDING.
One and one-half pound raisins, one and
three-quarters of pound of currants. one
pound of figs, two pounds of moist sugar,
two pounds of bread-crumbs, sixteen eggs.
two pounds finely chopped suet, six ounces
mixed candied peel, one ounce ground nut
meg, one ounce ground cinnamon, one-haif
ounce bitter almonds, one-half pint molaSs
ses. Mix all the dry ingredients together
and moisten with the eggs; when all well
mixed, flour a strong pudding-bag; put in
pudding, tie well, and boil eight hours. \
nice sauce is to take one cupful OF sweet
cream, whites of three eggs and three
tablespoonful of powdered sugar. When
the cream is chilled, whip and put IN cool
place, beat the whites stiff and add sugar
and cream. Any fayoring may be used.
GERMAN COFFEE CAKE.
One quart of milk, eight ounces of sugar,
eight ounces butter, little salt, two ounces
yeast, lemon favor, -four, six eggs. Make
soft sponge of the milk, yeast and -four;
let it rise. Then add all other ingredients.
Make stiff dough, adding all -four Ia
quired. Let rise again, roll out, put on a
pan and let it rise again. Brush it with
egg, sprinkle sugar and chopped almonds
or top and bake. The almonds may be
omitted if desired.

over the palm of the left hand In
this manner the center of the new
piece is not covered with stitches.
When done, lay cloth over the
right side of the patch and press it with i
warm iron. 1 have seen this kind of a
patch made by French nuns so beautifully
that it could hardly be found. Do not hurry
with mending, and DO not begin diffiult or
long task of it when tired.
AFEw PRACTICAL HINTS. .
In buying dress goods always have.at
least half yard left over to mend with, or
make a new collar, cuffs, etc. Save al the
small pieces for mending. as any gown is
apt to be torn. If in the habit of remodel
ing gowns, buy yard extra material for
this task. Save old linen, not only for
mending purposes, but for bandages, ete..5
in time of illness. Old towels are useful
for mending, to cut the good portions out
and hem for wash-rags, and also for clean
ing-rags. Old stockings may be cut down
for children, and thus every ''old thing"
has its use.
There is much to say on the subject, and
this is only beginning; but next month 1
will take up the subject again and continue
unit it is exhausted.

CHAT ON FASHION.

| After having been on earth goodness only
knows how many years. it has at last been
| discovered that the beauty of a neck is re-
tanned by permitting it to go uncovered. In
the old days neither the Romans nor theil
| contemporaries wore anything that even
reSembled collar, says Isabel A. Mallou il
Ladies' Home Journal, while the few M
tons that did affect collars had them made
of magnificent Jewels, so that they rested
like necklaces far down on the neck itself
With the high collar, or even the collar that
we call medium, came a noticeable change
in the throat and neck. The one lost its
firmness and whiteness, and the other De-
came bony and unbeautiful. So, after all,
the only way % really keep ones neck
beautiful is to wear it not necessarily I'M
covered, but with a soft finish at the throat
and keeping the neck unhampered by stiff
linen.
A pretty way to finish a night dress is
to scallop, with colored thread, that part of
the placket v hich laps over, and then to
embroider all over the collar and cuffs.
which, by-the-bye are outlined in the same
way, tiny flowers, that is, daisies, rosebuds,
for-get-me nots. or butter-cups, in the same
color and after the fiat Kensington fashion.
In addition to their being very pretty, some
suitable work is afforded for great many
idle hands.
Nc evening dress is too elaborate or too
light a texture not to have fastened quite
near the edge and between the back and
front huge bow of broad velvet ribbon
appliqueed fatty in place and made to look
as if it were holding two parts of the gown
together. Bows made In this fashion of
very broad braid are liked on cloth gowns.
In this day, when enormous hats are seen,
it must not be forgotten that small ones are
also in vogue, and tiny bit of a woman
must not look as if she were being eXtin-
guished under an enormous hat covered
with rich plumes, when she would look
daiutier and prettier in a turban or small
bonnet, both of which are good form.
Although occasionally odd colors are noted
in gloves, still the various tans and gray
shades, as well as the white and the black,
are really the ones worn. Though pink,
blue or deep yellow may match a costume,
it is not in good taste to wear them.
If one wishes to be economical aud
freshen up black satin slippers it can be
easily done by covering them entirely with
fnely-cut jet beads. Sew each one on sep
arately and then they will not be likely to
come off. Another very pretty way of con-
cealing the ravages of time on slippers is to
have huge gauze rosette, made very puffy,
standing up well and high from the slipper
and in this way accomplishing two things
that is, the instep is made to look higher
and the grayish look of the satin is COM
pletely hidden.
If during the season ycu intend to wear
white gloves much, take the advice that 1
have gained by experience, and though they
cost little more, get glace glove in pref
erence to the undressed glove, as they will
clean much better and do not so easily show
that they have been undergoing the scour-
ing process.
The gold girdles, that is. those Of wide

Il Snake Story.

WAsIIINTON COURT HOUSE, o., Oct.
lo.-Whlle building kiln to dry fruit
Il few days ago two boys named Wither.
spoon and Priest. living near Mt. Pleas
ant, Vinton County, OHIO. had very
unpleasant experience. They were get
ting out stone for their kiln, when two
large black snakes came out of the rock
and attacked them. The boys beat q
hasty retreat, and were pursued by the
snakes, which moved with great rapid
ity. WitherSpoOn succeeded in making
his escape by scaling fence. but his
companion, Priest, was overtaken at
the fence, and before he could climb it
ore of the snakes had wrapped itself
around his ankle and bound it securely
to the bottom rail- The other snake
spraDg at his neck and bound 1t to the
top rail, its powerful coil pressing with
such tension against the boys wind
pipe and jugular that his tongue and
eyes protruded and his face turned pur-
pie. He remained In this horrible pre-
dicament while Witherspoon ran away
for assistance. Mrs. George was sum-
moned, and, fastening TO the spot with
an axe, she proceeded at once to lay out
the Serpents, cutting the snake from
Priests neck and severing its body in
twain. She next struck at the bottom
snake, cutting it i'll two, but also sever
ing couple of the boys toes. The
snakes measured seven feet six inches
and eight feet six inches.

PEELED TO shut down the last few days
