HOME DRESSMAkING,
How to Make Cheap But Bright and
 Dainty Gown.

How to Make Cheap Hut Bright and
 Dainty Gown.
 Home dressmaking is a favorite em- ployment to some women to whom delft ness is a gift amounting to genius. And wonderful bargains may be found in cotton goods when cloths and silks are crowding out cambrics and muslins. These reduced fabrics, if made up sim ply, are ready for another years morn ing wear, and often very delightful to have on hand for the first hot wave, which always comes as surprise and finds only the wisest of wise virgins prepared with cool and comfortable garments. One of the prettiest of these simple dresses recently made is of a remnant of cool-looking green and white checked zephyr. About the bot tom of the plain skirt band of fine sheer muslin, plain white, laid on over lining of plain green, is finished on either edge with three rows of white lace beading, threaded with green rib bon. A little close zouave of the zephyr finished in the same way, and crossing over the chest to the shoulder shows below it full waist of the fine white muslin which appears again in full sleeves, gathered to a band of green ribbon just below the elbow and capped with short sleeves of zephyr, finished with the band of trimming. Buttons of carved pearl close the jacket and skirt at the side. The whole cost of the gown was less than six dollars, and its effect was fresh and dainty enough to reward and delight its designer.-Chi- capo News

A Uninna Pin

The latest novelty in the scarf pin line has just been brought home from Europe by young man who picked up half a dozen in Vienna as presents to his friends. It is an exceedingly clever enameled representation of a cigarette stump with the ashes on it, and the length of the whole is about three quarters of an inch. The young man who brought them home had good deal of fun with one in the cafe of a fashionable club the other evening by sticking it on the left breast of his coat just below the shoulder At least a dozen men reached out at different times and tried to brush it off with some exclamation of excuse, and each one acknowledged that he had been completely fooled. Its not a very esthetic idea in scarf pins," said its owner, "but you can have ten times as much fun with it as four-leafed clover or a violet with a diamond dewdrop on it." And so you can.-Philadelphia Record.

Swift Punishment Overtakes the Murder

 BIRMINGHAM, Ala, Oct. 14.-A special from Camden, Ala, says: Moses Johnson, aged IF; James Packer, aged 19; Dave Martin, aged IS, and Will Lewis, aged 19, all negroes, who were arrested for the murder of Richard H. Johnson and daughter, in Monroe county, last Friday night, confessed, and yesterday a posse of citizens started with them to the scene of the crime. Last night, hearing of their coming, a mob of excited people, white and black, collected, met the posse in the woods and overpowered them.
 The report says the murderers were shot and their bodies burned by the mob. They were tied to trees, blindfolded and riddled with bullets. In thelr confession the murderers said the crime was com mitted for the purpose of robbery and rape.
 Johnson, the victim, was called to the gate and his head split open with an axe. His daughter was then outraged and murdered. Both bodies were cre- mated in the house. The intense excite ment that followed resulted in the lvnchinQ

DR CALLAGHAN'S TRIUMPHANT
 DISCOVERY

The doctors remedy for drunkenness will in or 8 days cause an absolute disgust for intoxicating liquors. Dr Callaghan's remedy for drunkenness presents an op portunity for relief from all the trouble and humiliation caused by an uncontrol- able appetite, and is absolutely safe from any and all bad effects from taking the treatment.
 Dipsomania cured. Do you drink or have yC Il friends who drinky Dr Callaghan's reliable spe- Cihc remedy for the various forms of alcoholism. Sure, safe and speedy cure for liquor, Opil m and tobacco. We tssert pusttiv ly that the cure is both sure and s ,fe and such cure for such an evil cannot be too rapidly proclaimed in every town and humle in the land. The doctors pa tients in Jude men of the most widely different vacations. The result of the treatment is truly surprising.

THE HON Z.
HINTS TO HoUsEKEEPERs.

A good way to keep knife perfectly
sharp is to use ''rifle,'' such as
farmers sharpen their scythes
upon. A few turns on this will give an
edge that will cut through rnything.
If you have set something hot on oil
cloth and it turns white, drop on a little
spirits of camphor and rub with a dry
cloth.
If carpet is put down over a greasy
spot in the floor, it will strike,up through
the carpet in time. If it cannot all be
removed by scrubbing with soda OF I've,
spread a thick piece of glazed paper over
before laying the carpet.
For burn flake sweet oil and lime
water equal parts mix, and keep the
burn we'll covered with it.
If sweet oil is. applied to the skin i'm
mediately after a blow or bruise, it will
not turn black and blue.
To clean papier-mache articles, wash
first in warm water and soap, and polish
with sweet oil.
If you have dropped ink on a white
apron, you should wash it with oxalic
acid and then with warm water.
The micilage that proves satisfactory
is made of equal parts of gum arabic and
gum tragacanth dissolved in sufficient
water to make thick paste.
SEALING JELLY JARS.
Strain jelly into jelly jars which have
been thoroughly washed in soap and
water, and have been standing in boiling
water for half an hour. When the jelly
cool pour over it small quantity Of
melted paraffine, let it harden; then pour
in more, for as the first hardens it may

the barometer is said to fall. Therefore,
every change of heighth of the quiclzsil-
yer which we observe is a sign and meas
ure of change in the volume of air
around us. Further, this change in vol
ume tells no less upon the air inside on
cases and cupbcards. When the barom-
eter falls, the air around expands into a
larger volume, and the air inside the cup
board also expands and forces itself out
at every minute crevice. When the ba-
rometer rises again, the air inside the
cupboard, as well as outside, condenses
and shrinks, and air is forced back into
the cupboard to equalize the pressure;
and, along with the air, in goes the dust.
The smaller the cfevice, the stronger the
jet of air, the farther goes the dirt.
Witness the dirt-tracks SO often seen in
imperfectly framed engravings or photo
graphs. Remember, ladies and gentle
men, wheneveryou see the barometer
rising, that an additional charge Of dust
is entering your cupboards and drawers

HOW DUST GETS IN.
When the air around lis becomes con-
densed-shrinks into smaller volume
it becomes heavier, puts greater pressure
on the surface of the mercury, and makes
it ascend in the tube; then the mercury
is said to rise. When the air sexpands-
swells into larger volume-it becomes
lighter, the pressure on the mercury is
less, the mercury sinks in the tube, and
