A., T. & >. f. Presidency.
New York, Nov. 23.-There is a hard
fight over the selection of the new presi-
dent of the Santa Fe. The candidacy of
E. T. jeffrey was so strenuously opposed
BY the American interests that, although
he had strong foreign backing, he with
drew from the field. Foreign interests
opposed D. B. Robinson, who is favored
by American interests, and it looks as if
a compromise candidate would have to
be selected. The chances now are good that
E. P. Ripley, third vice president of the
st.. Paul, will be the new president. Mr..
Ripley is regarded as railroad man of
high ability. It is now said the matter
will be definitely settled on Monday.

The old mans property consisted of
two small cottages, which had cost him
one hundred and fifty dollars, and a
little furniture.
The lawyer, having asked his client
how he wished to dispose of his prop
erty, the latter replied: MA aid wom-

"What age is your old woman"'

"Seventy-two," replied the miner.
"And how long have you and your
wife been marie ed?" asked the lawyer.
"Over fifty years." replied the
miner.
Thereupon the lawyer suggested to
his client that he should give the wife
the interest during her life, whether
she continued widow, or otherwise.

"But surely" replied the lawyer,

Certain Practical Suggestions to He Cal

Certain Practical Suggestions to He Car
ried Out in Everyday Life.
Save your time by learning to dc
the right thing at the right time, and
in the best, easiest and shortest way
possible Save your strength in the
SAME way and also by using labor-sav
ing machines. Take at least O few
minutes rest when you are too tired ts
do your work we'll, for not to do work
right is waste of time and strength
Make It pleasure for the children t
"help mother" instead of duty which
they think is more than should be ex
pected of them.
Save your patience. You may neci
1t some time when greater than the
present trials surround you, and if yoy
keep losing it in part every day yor
can never get it together again II
you save your time and strength much
of your patience will be stored up fol
future use-will power must do the
rest
Save your breath; don't scold. You
may die for want of breath sooner II
you scold than you might otherwise.
Save the love of your little ones and
the sunshine they bring into you,
home. Some day your life will be dark
when this sunshine has entered tht
home above. Some day their love may
60 out to some one beside you.
Save food by cooking just enough
and no more, by avoiding rich pastry,
cakes, ETC., and choosing only that
which is wholesome. Utilize cold vict-
uals by making appetizing dishes
whose origin is disguised.
Save clothing, not by merely buying
the lowest in price, but the most dura'
BILE and best looking that your purse
will allow. Higher priced goods some
times in fact, generally, prove to be
the cheapest in the end, as they will
look we'll if made over several times.
Save furniture by buying that which
will stand long and hard usage, and
depend on your artistic talents tc
brighten and ornament it. Let your
first thought in buying furniture be
First, comfort; second, use; third, du
rability, and last, style.
Save money. One who saves time
strength, patience, love, food, cloth
ing, and furniture generally has the
knack Of saving money, but as there
are as many ways of saving money as
there are ways OF making money it is
useless to attempt to tell them here
"a penny saved is a penny earned."-

To Make n Stock Collar,

In making the newest stock collars
for very dressy use more than one ma
terial is used; for example, folded
collar of black velvet lined with cher
ry satin, with large rosettes at each
side made of jetted velvet lined with
the satin. Again, a fancy bow of pink
satin ribbon, arranged in front on a
crush collar of wine-colored velours.
Two rows of golden-brown satin-edged
faille ribbon form stock collar, fin
ished with rosette of sage-green chif-
fon placed each side near the front.
Another pretty collar band is made of
rose pink-silk, the wrinkled effect pro-
duced by shirring the silk at both
edges. Directly in front are set two
fans of white lace, held down by a
wrinkled cross piece of the silk. The
beautiful lace is wired to stand out
stifly about the neck and the softly
falling fan ends nearly cover the top
of the bodice.-New Orleans Picayune.
