Figure it out; see if the
material alone wouldn't cost
you what you have to pay
here for a woman's waist all
made up, more than that, you
get them made up more in
the prevailing various STYLES
and better fitted than to have
them made at home.

eager buyers last Saturday at
our Trimmed Hat Counter.
Such value has never been
Offered. 1t is simply this, we
give away the hat and ma
terial and you pay for trim

$1.49 would be the right
prices to do. it.

Oxfords at 59c and Hose to
match them in color.

The watch was Loaded.

The examinations at certain prep
school were in progress. The boy:
were working busily over their papers
and the grim old professor was watch
ing sharply from his desk. Presently
he noticed that one of the students, u
prominent ne'er-do-well, was consult
ing his watch with considerable fre-
quency. The professor studied him.
In five minutes he had looked at the
timepiece three times.
This was enough for the guardian
lie called the student to his desk and
demanded the watch. 1t was giver
him and he opened it. Across the face
was piece of paper bearing the legend
''Fooled."
But the worthy professor was not tc
be SO easily deceived. He gave the stu
dent sharp, knowing glance, turned
the timepece over and opened the back
cover. 1t opened with considerable
difficulty and, behold, there was an.
other slip of paper bearing the infor.

Cleanliness in the Dairy.

Cleanliness from the milking of the
COW to the packing of the butter is an
absolute necessity in the dairy. Fif-
teen years ago tins was impressed on
my mind in n dictatory sort of way;
lately it has been made clear to me in
the clear light of scientific investiga-
tions. The synopsis of circular issued
by Danish butter makers association
shows the attention given this subject
in that country. where the best butter
in the world is made All utensils used
in connection with the dairy must be
cleaned carefully in the usual manner
and finally rinsed in clear lime water,
leaving them in the water when not in
use. Before using empty the lime
water and steam for fifteen minutes.
Common water should not be used for
rinsing This is the only sure method
OF excluding all bacteria from the pans
and machinery used in the dairy. That
cleanliness is u paying investment may
be readily seen by visiting the dairies
In which the butter is made, which re-
tails at fancy prices in city markets. =

TWO MUSICAL DOGS.
One Criticised an Orchestra Other
Identified Hand Organ.

Identified Hand Organ.
A wonderful story of French musi-
cal critic is related by persons who
profess to have been acquainted with
him, and who have seen him in attend
ance on musical performances He
was a dog, and his name in public was
Parade; whether he had different
name at home was never known. At
the beginning of the French rcvolu
tion he went every day to the military
parade in front of the Tuilelies palace.
He marched with the musicians, halted
with them, listened knowingly to their
performances, and after the parade
disappeared, to return promptly at pa
rade time the next day. Gradually the
, musicians became attached to this de-
voted listener They named kim Pa
rade, and one or another of them al
ways invited him to dinner. He ac-
cepted the invitation, and wac pleas
ant guest. 1t was discovered that after
dinner he always attended the theatcr,
where he seated himself calmly in The
corner OF the orchestra ard listened
critically to the music. If II new piece
was played he noticed it instantly and
paid the strictest attention. If the
| piece had fine melodious passages he
showed his JOY to the best of his dog-
gish ability: but if the piece was ordi-
nary and uninteresting, he yawned.
started about the theater, and unmis-
tabably expressed his disapproval
Another very curious story of n ca
nine musical ear is told of London
organ grinders dog. The organ grinder
was blind and aged, and the dog used
to lead him about. One night after Il
hard days work, the old man and his
faithful companion lay down to sleep,
with the organ beside them. They
slept soundly, and when they awoiic
the organ was gone. They were in de-
spair. Their means of earning Il LIVING
| was gone. But the dog led the Old
| man through the streets where ne had
been accustomed to play, and persons
, who had given him alrls before con
| tinued to befriend him, so that the loss
of the organ proved not so bad after
! all. Weeks went by. One day the old
| man heard hand organ played IL few
| feet from him. II reminded him of his
| lost instrument, but he paid no special
| attention to it. Hand organs were
common in London and he heard them
| often. Not so the dog He showed
signs of great excitement, barked vio-
| leutly, and led his master in the di-
rcction of the organ. He sprang nj the
robbers throat, dragged him away
| from the stolen organ, and led his mas
| ter eagerly up to it with expressions of
recognition and delight. t.-Manchester

close up the top, thawing out as soon
as the weather moderates.
Where large crops of potatoes or
other root crops, are regularly grown,
Il permanent pit or cellar will be found

pit by using plow and road scraper,

feet long and six feet wide for a hatch

CARE OF THE WARDROBE.

Some Timely Suggestions About tho Put
ting Away of Summer Finery.
1t is an accepted fact among women,
founded upon good reason, that when
ones belongings are valuable and
costly the services of maid are not
luxury, but necessity and really an
economy. Delicate fabrics need great
care in handling and preserving, and
fine boots, shoes, gloves and handker.

ness. But, without maid and with a
comparatively simple wardrobe, a need
of care even will be found great pro-
lection. In putting away summer wash
dresses they must be rough dried, then
folded neatly and packed in a box OF
trunk by themselves. 1t is an excel.
lent idea to go over each one and take
the few mcnding stitches that are
sure to be needed Challies, crepons
and summer silks should be carefully
shaken and brushed, spots sponged
bows of ribbon taken Off and unmade
| if possible, or the dust carefully wipe6
off with bit of silk dipped in weak
ammonia water, and packed away in

where laces trim the dresses. If these
are washable they should be washed
otherwise shaken and wound around q
bottle or wooden roll. 1t is good

OPIUM IN CHINA.
People Who Become Confirmed Smokers
Live Ten Yours on an Average.


"Scven-tenths of the people of China
are opium smokers, and 100000 Of
them die annually from its effects"
said Chinese missionary recently who
has spent twenty-five years of his life
in the flowery Kingdom.
"This habit is rapidly growing he
went on. at is confined to no class or
sex, but men and women, officials and
coolies. use IL alike. AS soon as opium
smoking becomes confirmed habit with
Chinese coolie he knows that he has
about ten years to live. That seems to
be the average. ] consider it casicr to

lowest type of drunltards, than an
opium smoker. Place them behind iron
bars, if you like, and after being in
prison short time they begin to beg
and plead for opium. They rave like
maniacs and their suficrings are terri
BILE to behold. They act like wild men.
1.-THE opium vice is running China.
The people know it and the govern
ment knows it, but they take no action.
In twenty-five years it has increased 81
per cent. Fertile fields that were once
! used in the cultivation of rice are now
growing the opium weed. The pro
vinces in northern China, where the
terrible famine occurred n few years
ago and where thousands pcrished for
want of food, had been for years given
over TO the production of opium instead
of food grains. When food was short
| the people found they could not live
on opium, so they starved to death.
"A parallel to the suffering during
! that famine is hardly cquallcd by any
event in the history of the world. HUI

villages and on the roads. People
