THE BRIDAL CARRIERS.
Good Luck In Matrimony Follows the Girl
Who Makes Them.

Who Makes Them.
At all times gartaFs have been consid-
cred very important details of woman's
dress, and always associated in some
manner with matrimony. Down
through half dozen centuries comes
to us the custom practiced to-day Of
having the garters as finishing touch
to brides toilet. The particular girl
friend who is permitted to slip them
into place is conceded to stand the best
possible chance of wedding happily be-
fore twelve months are out.
A prospect of near and blissful matri-
mony is also shared by the friend who
secures the privilege of making a brides
garters, the proper pattern for which is
now a circle of white silk elastic COW
cred with embroidered white satin and
clasped by a small gold buckle enam-
eled in white bow knots. The garters
of Marie Antoinette were pretty pink
silk bands deliberately embroidered on
the upper half in tiny jewels and gold
thread. In an American family are
preserved the bridal garters of titled
English ancestress. These are of white
silk, nearly two inches broad, and dec
Grated with round buttons made of seed
pearls. from which suspend pearl cords
and tassels two inches long.-Philadel-

Ice Used to Cure Colds.

The latest idea of French physicians
is to cure colds by applying ice to the
spine. Just now, when the abrupt
changes in the weather have brought in
fluenza, bronchitis or some kind red
trouble, ON e is always glad to hear
of some new remedies for 1.-THE
cold; but few, we imagine, will be
daring enough to apply this one. Yet
the infiammatory sore throat that few
years ago most people treated by poul-
tices and warmth, is now quickly cured
by sucking ice and keeping the victim
in low temperature, and in a really
feverish cold ice might be of genuine

ON certain gala-day phases. There are
invitations, either written or engraved,
to be sent, specifying the day, hour and
nature of the party, says the Ladies'
Home journal. If the stationery is to
be engraved some device which will
appeal specially to children should be
chosen, something in which animals or
birds are to serve as bearers of the
much-thought-of invitation cards. Per-
haps the Brownies might be pictured
as carrying huge envelopes, inscribed
with suitable Ronograms.

To work this dainty little dolly you

To transfer the design to the linen:
II the design is the desired size, place
the linen over it, taking care to have
The center of the design and the linen
exactly together; pin them so they will
not slip, place on pane of glass which
can be leaned against the window,
when the design will show through the

and easily with a sharp pencil.
Do not try to reproduce the design

Of the first essentials of success.
Should it be necessary to enlarge the
pattern, the simplest way will be to
draw a circle on your linen about
eight inches in diameter. For this
purpose take a narrow strip of card
board and passing pin through the
end, pass it through the center of the
linen firmly into a table or lap-board.
Measure four inches along the card
board; pass the point and, holding the
pencil erect, describe a circle on the
linen. In this way you will easily and
correctly draw circles of any size for
any purpose.
Having gotten the outside dimen-
sions of your dolly, cut from a bit of
cardboard a scallop the size and shape
of this; place this on the linen with the
point touching the circle. A little ex-
perimenting will teach you how far
apart to place them, and in this way
the design may be adapted to any size

a center piece.

for the edge and outline stitch for the
flowers and ribbon. If the natural
colors are preferred, work the edge and
ribbon with the white flo floss, the
flowers with blue, French knot of
yellow for the center.
The forget-me-nots can also be
worked in satin stitch, which is an
over-and-over stitch from one side of
flower or petal to the other; or in long
and short buttonhole, which leaves the
edge heavier and is very good. The
ribbon after being outlined may be
further enriched by row of feather

A WAY to sweeten Lard.

After frying doughnuts or fritters or
anything of that kind shave off few
slices of potatoes when you are done
with the grease and drop them in the
sizzling fat; let them cook an instant
and then set on the back of the stove
to cool very slowly. In the course of
half an hour remove to place to cool
more rapidly, and just before it gets
beyond the pouring stage strain
through a cloth into a clean jar. You
will find that the lard is nearly as
sweet as ever, being only little darker,
which does not hurt it for frying cakes
in again.

Care of Shoes When Wet.

A woman dislikes to get her nice new
shoes wet because it spoils them so;
but with care, the wetting will not hurt
them much. As sooz as the wet shoes
can be removed, rub them well with a
soft cloth to get some of the dampness
out, and remove all the mud, then rub
them with cloth saturated with kero-
sene or vaseline. Get as much of the
oil into them as possible, and stuff the
shoes into shape, setting them aside for
few hours. Another application of
oil and rubbing will remove all stiff
ness, and the shoes will be in order
when wanted.-Farm and Fireside

Practical Use of Royal Gifts.

Queen Victoria, as is well known,
frequently gives away as presents cash
mere shawls. One of these was not
long ago bestowed on Sir Ellis Ash
mead Bartlett's friend, the Swazie
queen. We note in the Cape Argus that
her dusky majesty has turned the gift
to practical use. The shawl was cut IN
two and given to two of the queens
handmaidens, who duly smeared the
pieces with fat and use them nightly
TO keep their bodies warm.

Cleaning shop-worn Corse.s.

A good way to rejuvenate a shop
worn corset, or any other for that mat
ter, is to scrub it with brush dipped
in strong solution of ammonia and
water. All the steels should be first
removed, and the corset then tackled 70
a board. on which it should be both
scrubbed and dried. For washing
shirt waists in delicate oottons it is
best to use white CASTLE soap and dry

LIGHrNING's AWFUL PowEB.
what Single Bolt Did in a New Jersey
Town.

The destructive power of single
thunderbolt is greater than it is possible
for the human mind to conceive.
Last Sunday afternoon lightning
struck the Methodist church at Quaker
town, n. j., just after the close of the
services. and carried desolatiOn in its
track. The congregation heard : deaf
ening crash, then tearing sound, and
next came a dazzling, binding white
| light of such terrible brilliancy that
those who saw it have not yet fully re
covered the use of their eyes. The bolt
shattered the church tower and fused
big iron stays. 1t ran down into the
vestibule and wrought terrible havoc
among the frightened people who were
waiting for the storm to subside.
The lightning struck Miss Minnie
Frace, injuring her fatally. 1t ran from
the back of her head around her body
! and down her back and limbs to the
floor. Her clothing was torn to shreds
and completely torn from her. Even
! her stockings and shoes were torn away
and thrown some distance from her. The
intense heat of the electric fluid fused
the glass, gold and works of her watch
into solid mass. The girls flesh was
horribly burned and turned black.
The minister, Rev. Mr.. Bowman, mar
rowly escaped with his life His cloth
ing was torn off and he was left with
nothing on but a tattered undershirt,
one shoe and sock. He was badly burn
ed and still suffers intense agony, while
his blood has boiling sensation.
Half dozen ladies and dozen men
were thrown across the ves5ibule by the
shock, sustaining painful injuries,
Their clothing was 50 badly damaged
that several of them did not have enough
left to completely cover them. Ladies
attired in a hat and pair of garters, and
gentlemen wearing the ragged remains
of their undershirts, with here and there
an odd sock and shoe, darted from the
church and ran frantically down the
street shouting for help.
When men rushed in to rescue tn e
sufferers they found the floor covered
with prostrate forms, some unconscious
and O theirs grooming and writhing in in
tense pain. Others besides Miss Frace
may die from the shock, or lose their
reason, or never fully recover their fac
ulties, Altogether, it is an experience
which will never be forgotten by the
| Quakertown people.
