STOVES.

Tall about your R6ntgen raysi.' said one
woman as she watched Miss Sickles make choc-
olate frosting on one piece of iron with a string
to It. wlile she baked the cake in n sheet-iron
box with another string to it. "If'people would
pay half rs much attention to this cooking
feature of electricity. there wouldn't be so much
talk about marriage being n failure"
The pieces of iron with strings were stoves.
They come in different sizes. There are small
ones six inches in diameter. and upon this
one can set n little tea kettle full OF water and
make a cup of tea in less time than IT would take
to build an ordinary fire. The "string " which
is tied to this stove is the insulated wire. 1t has
q peg at one end and a peg at the other. One
peg goes into a hole In the wall: the other peg
goes into the sidc OF the six-inch stove"
That is ali.there is to it. You stick the pegs in
and the electricity does the rest.
The iron box into which Miss Sickles puts her
patches of dough. and out of which she takes
her bread ard cakes and other good things. is
an electric oven. 1t has coils of wires running
all around 1t inside OF its double sheet-iron case,
and you can use the same cord for it that you
used for making tea il you wish. No one but a
housckeeper can appreciate properly the beau
ties of this electric oven. Every cook knows
that for one thing a"quick" oven is needed,
while for another n SLOW" oven is alb
~solutely essential. When electricity is the fuel.
nothing is easier than to secure Quickness
and slowness at will. Pull out one handle In
front and you have n slow oven; pull out two
and 1t is n quick one. Almost anybody's brain
could grasp that. Then. too, the electric oven
bakes evenly on all sides. When it is in-

STYLE ~ GOLF SUITS.
Light-weight American mnde buds Moro
in Favor than Imported Garments

Clothes do not make n golfer. yet every be-
ginner In the game naturally pays some heed to
the buds he should wear, and at this season the
old hands find it necessary to replenish their
wardrobes, SO n few hints are in order. Prior
to 1894, when the golfng wave began to roll
with force, the " Apple Tree Gang" who started
the st. Andrews Club on the little links in
Yonkers. and the pioneers of the game else
where. had no distinctive style of garments.
But when the boom set in men began to import
clothes. with their golf sticks, from England
and Scotland.
There was danger for a time that the new
game would be smothered under the heavy
wraps and woollens sent across the sen. The quick
wits of the American tailors anal outiitters hav
averted this danger. and the players are no ionge
compelled to swelter in the unreasonable i'm
ported attire. The fault with the Scotch home
spuns and English tweeds first sent over lay In
their warmth. Our golfers do not have to face
the chilly blasts and rain storms that vary even
the summer weather on the links in Great
Britain. Heavy suits do well enough when the
snow is on the ground. but even on our winter
links they are no longer strictly in vogue. Onr
players seem to prefer garments lighter In
er Inderclothing on freezing days. For the
same reason shoulder capes have little popular
ity among the men who golf, although much, in
favor with the women both on and off the links.
For the coming season Of active play, or until
next December; the men who : are ,SyiHG IN soati
to choose from. Homespuns and tweeds. il light
in weight. will make durable and comfortable
rig-outs, but gray mohairs. whipcords. and
serges will be equally in favor. For nidsum-
mer white flannel and pongce suits, or any OF
the new rough and cool Jungle cloths. will be
most in demand. AS in bicycling, knicker-
bockers are the most comfortable sort of trou-
sers, although in flannels and the light summer
goods, loose long trousers. we'll rolled up. fiji the
bill nicely. In suits a strappcd-seam Jacket
and single breasted waistcoat match the knick-
ers. With the orthodox stockings. heavy laced
shoes, CATERS, and a cap, the ettire is complete.

The note in yesterdays OPTIc, stating
that the proceeds of the Bur iette lecture
would be applied on PASTORS salary, is
incorrect. SO far as known. there has
been no action to direct any portion OF the
proceeds in that way; and II there should
be, not more than sos would be 50 directed.
The ladies' society are due only $25. on
their subscription. and that not until the
end OF the year. The proceeds will go,
mainly, il not entirely toward the pur-
chase of a new carpet; az least, that has
been the intention, all the time. Rev.
Hoover's salary is almostsentireIy covered
by subscriptions, and the church does not
employ these mercantile emit rprises to
raise it.

der that no goats should be transported in

about the general order. A goatshad been
placed in a baggage car that was bound
for the Pacific coast. During the trip the
animal had eaten The leather straps that
held the brass checks to the trunks. When
Portland was reached, the checks were ali
on the door of the car, and there was
no way Of identifying the trunks. ~
took nearly three months to straighten out
the tangls, and the general order was
