A certain member of congress who Is
somewhat impressed with himself and
his own Importance went to Boston
once upon a time and stayed at the
fremont house-they say Tremmont in
Boston, you know, and fremont out in
Chicago. He didn't like the hotel. He
didn't like the table. The beds dis
pleased him. The rooms were not
properly heated. Nothing was as II
should have been. When he went to
the clerks desk in the office to pay his
bill on leaving, the congressman's dis
pleasure found vent in words.
II was never so uncomfortable in my
life," he said to the clerk. Your hotel
is the worst in the country, sir, and

ROLLING SPECIAL RAILS.
With Which to Build Steel Track
ways on Wagon Roads.

va W oSNh 1bOduSs
Special Wire to Sunday Light.
Washington, Sept. 1S.-In accord
ance with the desire of the secretary
of agriculture to promote more ex-
tended experiment in the use of steel
trackways on wagon roads, the office
of road inquiry has made arrange
ments with the Cambria Iron Works,
of Johnston, Pa, for rolling special
rails for this purpose. These arrange
ments are to go into effect as soon as
definite orders from responsible par
ties amounting to one mile of track
are received.
The director of road inquiry and the
engineers of the iron company after
much discussion have agreed upon a
plan of track which promises to meet
all requirements. 1t uses no wood in
construction and no cross ties are sup
port, but consists of a simply inverted
trough or channel of steel for each
wheel with a slightly raised head on
the inside to guide the wheels, each
channel resting in bed of gravel on
the two tied together occasionally to
prevent spreading.
Special devices for remounting are
provided at each joint. The bearing
or tread for wheels is eight inches
wide, the thickness about 7-16 of an
inch. The weight of the structure is
about 100 tons per mile of single track
road, and it will be furnished in small
sections at the rate of $500 per mile.
The first order for track has been
given by the New York state agricul-
tural experiment station.

FASHION HINTS.
New Items of Dress for the Aiid-sum-
mer Season.

New Items of Dress for the Mid-Sum-
mer Season.
China silk is much used for under
wear now and lovely and durable gar
ments are the result.
A clever French woman has designed
&c separate and distinct styles in sleeves
for the present season.
A pretty little bolero front of green
serge, edged with black soutache braid,
laid in a row of circles, is very pretty.
Indian silks run all the others hard,
but the lighter and more graceful quail
tiles require taffeta lining, which adds
to the expense.
The fashion in belts is endless. The
SWEETEST thing is the set of oXidized sill
yer links joined with small miniatures
set in diamond frames.
While the hats of this season are
startling in the colors, there is a grow
ing tendency to use only one color in
it's various shades, on each.
Foulards promise to be plentiful this
summer, and blue, with white outline, in
"microbe" designs, seems to be well in
the favored foreground.
Taffetas gain in favor, for all there are
some of them that won't wear well
enough to pay for making them up, to
say nothing of the cost of the silk.
Even little tots of three years wear
wooden frocks of small checks, plaids or
mixtures of serge, cheviot or canvas
weaves in shades of brown, green, tan
and bright blue.
a new decoration shows tabs of lace
over the shoulders half way to the belt,
with ribbon in the center of the tabs,
held by buckle at the end and loops
over the waist.
Black pointd'esprit silk net is in great
use, both for making wholly new toilets
and waists and for freshening gowns
and bodices of black satin, moire, taft
feta, India silk and grenadine.
Rosebud printed china silks and plain
shades of the same soft silks in light
shades have long been favored for little
girls. Lace-edged ruffles, velvet ribbon,
satin bows and lace are the only trim
mings for these silken fabrics.
A pretty way to freshen a white
chiffon or organdie waist is to cut away
the entire portion that covers the upper
part of the bodice and shoulders; stitch
ing the raw edges thus made to secure
them. then adding a, new yoke top,
either e lace and insertion, all lace,
tucked India muslin, net or shirrings
of organdie alternating with rows OF
ribbon,-Chicago Chronicle.

Non-InnnmmnbIe Enbric..

The recent disaster at Paris has called
the attention of the public to the i'm
portance of making articles of decora-
ton or of wearing apparel non-infam-
mable, and experiments have proven
that even wood may be made capableof
resisting an ordinary flame. Textiles
are very easily made fireProof. One of
the dangers of exhibitions is the pres
ence of celluloid, and the attention of
scientists is being turned toward some
treatment of ceIluloid which will de-
crease its dangerous qualities. Cellu-
loid is being used in a thousand ways
for everyday purposes, and the fierce
ness of the flame when it takes fire
makes it an exceedingly dangerous
thing in careless hands. 1t, therefore,
ought TO be made in some way less in
fammable-N. Y. Ledger.

To. Make Caramel Custard.

For six ordinary-sized custards melt
six tablespoonfuls of sugar, stirring
carefully to prevent burning. Pour
into the bottom of the custard cups
give each sort of whirl that the
sugar may also line the sides. Beat
three eggs without separating; add
three tablespoonful of sugar, half a
teaspoonful of vanilla, and a cup and a
half of milk. Stir until the sugar is
dissolved; pour the mixture into the
cups on top of the caramel. Stand in

and cook in the oven Is minutes. Turn
while hot from the cups. Serve cold.
