Small Fur aud Other Eancies.

The novelty of the moment is little
cOllar-band of fur. TO be worn as velvet
stockholders are. Ii is merely straight
band of fur about three inches wide,
standing out IN projecting loop on the
sides. then hooking in front. where ii is
adorned with two miniature heads of the
animal that meet together there. This
odd little tour de cou is made of the
glossiest black silken Persian lamb, or
of the MORE Persian, or else of seal
skin, otter. or the shorter brown furs,
especially mink or sable.
The large fox boas, either white. gray,
or brown, have been given as Christmas
presents TO girls who skate. sleigh, or
ride the bicycle, as they are very warm
They are made of the skin of the entire
animal attached to "a slightly smaller
head, ard retain the full round brush
with good effect.
Small boleros Of fur are in great favor
they are extremely pretty, but there are
many "botches" among those seen on
the street. The prett'est reach 10 the
waist-lire all around and button up
closely almost TO the throat, but are ar
ranged so that they can be tdrned over
in revers. If preferred. The most chic
boleros have sleeves Of miroir velvet
that are of tremendous size. They tre
the way down, 10 droop below the ell
bow, where they are turned up and
gathered 10 lining. These are beauti-
full in velvet-like seal-skn, with sleeves
os are of black MORE Persian fur, with
huge sleeves of striped velvet, or else
OF the histrous and sleek miroir velvet.
The handsomest sable boas have q
wide coilar-band that may be turned up
or down as one chooses, finished on each
end with seven tails of sable making
fourteen in all. yet so soft and caressant
are they that they yield to he touch like
a jabot of lace.
Sn all coilets of seal-skin reaching just
over the shoulder-tips are given an i'm
portsnt look by large ruche around the
neck made Of velvet Of the same color
thickly lined and oox-olea led. Another
odd fashion is the colles Of black velvet
falling very full AMI also entirely dou-
bio from yoke of velvet. Each of the
velvet collets is lined with ermine which
meets face to face. and is out of sight
except when blown about by the wind.
A high collar, close about the neck, OF
black ostrich tips finishes the garment

TIE Power Within Us.

Dear friends. dear brethren, II Is not
simply that you shall warn one another
by the contact OF your lives; ii Is not
merely that you shall do the things
which some conception of duty OH your
part obliges you 10 do: but IL is that
you shall have the mind OF Jesus Christ
shall have In yourselves the life, and
then the power Of the life will show It.

DOCTOR OF PoWWOW.
Row Healing by Magic Ts Practiced fR
 Pennsylvania

Pennsylvania.
 Aged Peter Bausher lives in rough lhewn log hut at the base of the Blus mountains in northern Berks county, Pa He is famous powwow man, and his services have been freely given for the last 50 years Added to his excel lent neighborly qualities is the fact that he is sincere Christian. And yet ho practices magic healing. The mountain eers say he has performed wonderful cures, and for this reason his services were in great demand But he is too old now to venture far from home. In his own way he told this story of his life:
 My father could powwow. So could his father. For 150 years the Baushers of my family knew the prayers for yari ons cures Powwow healing is by faith and prayers We do 1t all in the German language For each affiiction there is a special prayer. None of my prayers heals so quick as the one use for hem ' orrhage. Ihave frequently stopped se- Y xious flow of blood in a minute after e powwowing. Pains from burns cure n the same way. Erysipelas, wildfre, fel- ons, lameness, sprains, poison, plague ' and many other affiictions, such as vast " ing away, fits. St. Anthony's dance. af- aa!ctions of the nerves. quickly disappear with powwowing.
 I use no medicine, only words, said silently. The words know were hand ed down from father to son. They were |, never written. l think my great-great- grandfather handed down the words now use. What they were when he first used them don't know, but they have changed, no doubt. If my secret Is not to die with me, must tell my oldest son, but he says he will have nothing to do with it. Of course can tell wo- man, but not a man. except my oldest son. Man tells woman, and woman tells man. You must be near the person and l zee him when you powwow for him
 I never made any charge in my life. dare not My gift must be given en- { Urely without price.
 While powwowing is all right for cortain aff1ietions, yet when q person 6as typhoid fever, diphtheria or any dangerous disease like that, then my advioe is to send for Q reputable doctor at once and don't bother with pow Wowing. But there are some things that doctors can't touch. Powwowing eon heal and cure every time. The pa 1kent, of course, must have. first of all, 1hp strongest faith in the powwow, or it Ron't do any good
 I only try to cure people and help 3e afflicted A person must go under 3nstructions But it is a common thing n meet old women who can powwow 1E burns or bloodletting. Their hus- bonds told them how to do it. Their cures to the outside world would seem yary curious, not to say startling. Peo- ple take the treatment as naturally as ley drink water and think nothing of But t is the mysterious, baffling af-
