The leaders of fashion aspire to
sable fur this season. This is the
most expensive of all furs, an elabo-
rate sable garment costing $8,00O.
Silver fox stands next to sable in
value, and is much used for wrap
trimmings. Caracal, soft and
creamy white fur, is one of the sea-
sons novelties.

The new skirts are narrower by
two yards, but the trimming gives
them all the fullness desirable.

The long close sleeve of lace with
low-necked gowns is a caprice of the
moment. They are always made of
transparent material, and fit like the
glove they replace. The great chic
is a square decollete with shoulder
straps and very little sleeve, and the
neck across the front and back left
untrimmed. This plain edge at the
neck is one of the peculiarities of the
season.

Blouses continue to be very much

To Make Good Molasses Candy.

Molasses candy may be quickly
made by placing in granite kettle
teacupful of white sugar and IL
cups New Orleans molasses. Let it
boil until it makes a moderately
hard candy when tested by dropping
a bit from the spoon into cold water.
Add l tablespoonful butter and a
tablespoonful of vinegar, then boil
2 minutes longer. Take from the
stove and stir in we'll 4 tablespoon
full saleratus, pour on we'll buttered
plates, and before it gets cold check
with buttered knife. This may be
improved by having teacupful of
hickory or walnut meats spread on
the buttered plates, before pouring
over the hot candy. Popcorn or
peanuts also may be used.

WHEELING, DECE0iBER is, 1897.
nIoiher MeKlnley,a peath.

The sympathy of all the people goes
out to President Mckinley in the loss of
his aged mother, who. in a little more
than a week after she was stricken,
passed quietly away early Sunday
morning, Mrs. Mckinley lived more
than the allotted years, and lived TO wit
ness her distinguished son reach the
highest position within the gift OF the
American people, and TO experience for
herself the thrill of motherly pride in the
success OF son whose devotion to her
was SO touching.
Not ali the mothers who have given
the country its Presidents have lived to
realize the fact, and to feel what Mother
Mckinley has felt, Now that she has
passed away the Nation will Join with
the great man who stands beside her
bier In doing reverence to the memory
of a perfect type of American woman
hood and motherhood, and the sympathy
OF the people will be with that son, whose
irreproachabia private life, whose Chris
tan character and pure and loving do
nestle relations are in themselves tesI!-
monIals to her virtues. Thrice blessed
is the memory of a mother who could
give to the Nation such President.

While a ragged. hungry-looklne man
on Newark, N. j., street gazed In a
shop window filled with Christmas toys,
he pressed close to his breast delicate
little child, to whose life no Christmas
JOY could come, The little one was hun

Ing Wife. The little one stretched out It's
hand eagerly toward toy whose price
would have meant life to the starving
family. The man turned about In des-
peratlon, and MS eyes rested upon the
end of purse sticking from the cloak
pocket of an elegantly attlred woman.
One more look into his little ones fearful
face and he stretched his hand toward
the purse. 1t was the first time he had
ever yielded TO temptation, and he was
clumsy. A detectives hand was on his
arm In an instant, and he was dragged
away to answer the charge, He stood be-
fore the police judge and told his story,
as It is related here. There were tears
the eyes OF the humane judge as he dl-
rected the detective to go to the mans
home and see II what he said about the
sick and starving ones was true. The de-
tectlVe went and confirmed II all, and
found that the man had not described
half the misery. Then the Judge babe
the man so free.

Gould. whose marriage to the title pro-

Meteorological Society, in six or sew
en- months Of 1892 as many as 1928 We're
counted. The director OF the observa-
tory at Odessa, who has closely studied
the question, states that there is zone
Of electric activity OF great Intensity on
both sides of the equator, which Is also
the zone Of the greatest rainfall This
zone he divides into three sections, the
first embracing Asia and Oceania, Indo-
China and the Sunda Isles to New
Guinea. The yearly thunderstorms over
that zone average from 30 to 100 The
second zone starts from the Uest coast
of Africa between degrees and 10 de-
grees north latitude, and 10. degrees 20
Is degrees south latitude; while the
third zone comprises the tropical re-
gions of America, where the mean an
nual number OF thunderstorms exceeds
100 To the north of this zone, which Is
termed the electric equator. the storms
decrease in number until the deserts OF
Africa, Egypt, Persia and Central Asia
are reached, where the rainfall is scanty
aud thunderstorms rare.

Men believe in women; women be-
lieve they believe In men,
A woman car never understand why
Ideal love is so rare when ideal women
are so common.
After the Lord had finished making
Eve out of the rib, he had just enough

No man ever really has any doubt
that the girl he is In love with will mar
~ him, but most men pretend they
have because 1t always tlckles the

find that her husband doesn't think

thirty he wonders how long he will be

The comments of some extreme news
papers IN Germany about the "meddle-
somencss" of the United States, and
their assaults upon the Monroe doctrine,
are indicative of their intense hatred of
this country. It must not be supposed,
however. that these papers represent the
sentiment of the German people toward
this country, They are merely lingo and
agrarian organs and their statements
should be taken as such.
1t Is true that the kaiser was quoted
some tlmeNslnce as saying that this
American meddiesomeness must cease
or we will be compelled to teach them
manners" but doubtless the war lord
didn't mean 1t. The United States hasn't
meddled with his rights, and We do not
know that II has any intention OF doing
so. The United States, however has a
foreign policy with reference to the In
reference OF European governments in
American affairs which was handed
down from the days of Monroe and It
has no lnten:Ion of abandoning that pol
Icy. Uncle Sam will stick to 1t, even at
the risk of being thought unmannerly,
There is hardly any likelihood of
united naval demonstration against this
country by European powers, as some
European papers are suggesting. At
,,ra.yapt snnnn NJ thesa nOwars hova ssr-
ious domestic situations that are calling
for their attention. 1t will be we'll, how
ever, for the United States to keep an
eye on the Indicator. The enormous ex-
tension of our foreign trade is making US
a power in the markets of the world"
and the antl-AmerIcan feeling which is
cropping out in some parts of Europs Is
mostly due TO this fact.
