One might imagine that the posi-
bilities of trimming choker were ex-
hausted, but new devices constantly ap-
pear, particularly ON cloth or wool cos
tunes, where chokers take their cue
from the masculine cravat.
There are few prettier fashions than
the cravat of soft satin or ribbon wound
twice about the throat and tying under
the chin in square bow or four in hand
knot, with tiny turnover collar or en-
broidered null or stiff linen over it. A
recent street gown cut with jacket
basque shows a pretty necktie effect.
There is a high, rolling collar, lined
with lace, on the jacket, and it is slash
ed SO that broad satin ribbon may be
run through the slashings and tied in a
large square lace trimmed bow under
the chin.
On another tailor made gown we
have loose figaro opening to show a
waistcoat of ecru cloth, fastening to the
throat with a row of small cut steel
buttons. In this case there is no linen
collar, the CHECKER being covered by a
scarf of black satin, ending in four stiff
loops under the chin and separated by
a steel kle.-Philadelphia Times.

WOman's CAPABILITIES.

The testimony comes from Germany,
where women are regarded merely as
housewives and links between genera
tions, and it is consequently the most
valuable, as it is not open to the sus
picion of being a roseate view of the
case. 1t is German professor-Klein
of Gottingen-who pricks with the
lance of practical experience one of
mans pet illusions regarding woman g
capabilities. Says the professor, I'm ev-
cry respect have I found women stu
dents equal to men in mathematics. !"
During the fight for the higher educa-
ton of girls the conservative men have
always maintained that woman might
master the lighter branches of learning,
but that. save to the exceptional one,
pure mathematics would be forever a
sealed book. Although women long ago
exploded this fancy-not by argument
| but by achievement-it is pleasant to
note that, even in the stronghold of old
world prejudice against the intellectual
development of woman, she is gradual
| ly coming to be recognized as some
| thing higher than mere domestic ami

PROVERBS OF THE BIKE.

Skirts are not bar to century bar.
Less speed travels farther than much

The way of the scorcher is not cheap

Fine feathers never propelled a BIZ

A plug in time is like to save the
price of a new tire.
One side slip is more lasting than a
dozen ordinary falls.
A wrench left at home will not mend
a wheel broken ON the road.

The appearance of bicycle is not al

of the rider.
The shortest way across is always the
longest way around when the roads are
not improved.
1t is easier to climb hill against a
head wind than to ride a furlong ON as
phalt with punctured tire.

WOMAN'S WORLD.
REV. ALICE K. WRIGHT AND HER WORK
IN A BROOKLYN PULPIT.

A New View of the Bird Ouestion-F1owsr
Garden DiIlinery-Woman Suffrage In
London-Eaual to the Occasion-Tlzne
ly and Seasnnable Topics.
The Rev. Alice K. Wright, bright
faced, clear eyed little woman, who as
sists her husband as pastor of the Pros
pect Heights Universalist church, at the
corner of Sixth avenue and Ninth street,
Brooklyn, occupied on recent Sunday
morning the pulpit of the Rev. Lewis
E. Pease in the Universalist Church of
Our Father, at the corner of Grand ave-
nue. and Lefferts place.
Mrs. Wright spoke quickly and ner-
vously, with graceful gesticulation. Her
text was from Luke, ''For whosoever
will save his life shall lose it, but who
soever will lose his life for my sake, the
same shall save it. %
The preacher said this was an cpl
tome of the lesson of unselfshness.
Mr. and Mrs. A. E. Wright were in
stalled together as pastors of the Uni
versalist church in October, 1898.
The unusual spectacle of a husband
and wife, both regularly ordained min
listers, being installed in pastorate at
tracted a great number of people besides
the regular congregation. 1t is not I'M
usual in the Universa1ist church for
women to become ministers. In fact,
there are about 40 such in the United
States. It is out of the routine, howev-
er, for husband and wife to adopt the
ministry, even in that church.
To a reporter who visited her few
days after the installation Mrs. Wright
said:
when was little I rather took to
speaking in school, and as I grew up
| that taste developed into desire for
elocution. passed the examination in

SUCCESSFUL RENOVATION.
Hints on Tried and True Cleaning For
Paper, Paint, Furniture, Metals. Etc.

Hints on Tried and True Cleaning For
Paper, Paint, Furniture, Metals. Etc.
There are number of simple but
effectual methods of cleaning furniture,
paint and woodwork, metals and many
other things pertaining to the house,
which, if only more widely known and
practiced, would prove a boon and
blessing to the careful housewife, not
only by saving the expense incurred by
Heeorting to the professional cleaner,
but by preventing the almost wholesale
destruction which is wrought by inju-
dicious cleaning To experiment in such
matters, as is only too often done, is
most certainly to court disaster and fail
ure.
Paper hangings demand most careful
treatment, and it is seldom wise to at
tempt more than busting them with q
soft cloth, or, in the case of flock paper,
soft brush. Rubbing with stiff dough
is often suggested, but unless this is
most skillfully done the result is q
streaky appearance, much worse than a
| general uniform dirtiness. The dough,
| however, may be used to remove a
| grease spot, provided that the paper is
| sufficiently substantial to allow of the
necessary rubbing. With a thin, poor
quality of paper it might produce hole.
/ Paint should be cleaned with little
ammonia in quantity of warm, not
hot, water and finished with a sponge
and clean, cold water, never touching
| it with a cloth. In the case of white
paint little whitening may be added
to the water.
Oak is very liable to a greasy appear
ance, which may be got rid of by wash
ing it with warm beer; then, to give it
| gloss, wash it all over with large
brush with two quarts of beer in which
| you have boiled piece of beeswax the
size Of a walnut and tablespoonful OF
sugar. Leav, this application to dry
then polish it with soft cloth.
Gilt frames of every description re-
quire the greatest care, and after a thor
ough busting with a feather brush
should be merely sponged with very
little turpentine, not too wet, but only
just moist enough to remove the dir
and the fly marks.
Brass and copper articles, such a
tenders, fire irons, ETC., should be rubbed
with little sweet oil and finely pow
dered rotten stone, then polished with
leather. If, however, they are in yer.
bad state, the following paste should b.
used: One ounce oxalic acid, 6 ounce
rotten stone and half ar ounce gum ara
bic, made into paste with an ounce o
sweet Oil and little water.

ABYSSINIANS AMAZED.
They Thought an italian Had a Horse Sent
From Heaven.

They Thought an Italian Had Horse SEM
From Heaven.
A letter from an Italian officer in
Abyssinia to an Italian paper speaks of
the impression made by his appearance
on bicycle among the children of ma
ture. He says that while riding with
white flag attached to the steering gear
toward the line of the Abyssinians tho
outposts and picket guards were so ut
terly surprised that they forgot all
about asking him what errand he came
on. He calmly descended when reaching
the post, and demanded to be shown to
the headquarters of Ras Mangasha. He
was shown the direction, and, accom-
panied by two Abyssinian horsemen,
he continued on his way.
They rode at his side in mute ad-
miration When they arrived at the
camp of Ras, they informed the latter
that messenger of the Italians had
come on horse sent to him by heaven.
The willy chief, not quite SO gullible as
the rest of his troops, was considerably
amused, and requested the Italian officer
to give an exhibition of riding ON the
wheel, which the latter gladly did.
After looking at the different evolutions
of the wheel for time, Ras allowed
the messenger to return, but gave him
no answer to the message he brought. -

WHAT A FARCE.

Which Congress Convened.
The tariff debate has opened under
circumstances which may we'll chal

of thoughtful people. The bill now
extra session OF Congress convened
by the President for the express pur-
pose of correcting the financial diff
culties OF the government. For three
years past the Treasury has been
running behind For three years
past the nations expenditures have
exceeded its resources by many
millions annually. During that
period we have borrowed more than
$3.50, 100000. and issued bonds in
pay ment thereof The incoming r.
publican administration was pledged
to remedial action. 1t was every

dustry must anguish and CONNER
ciai enterprise remain in a state Of
paralysis, so long rs the government
was insolvent. Public opinion had
kably condemned the Cleye
land plan of operating the Treasury
upon borrowed money. 1t was evi-
dent that nothing short of a return
to wholesome and legitimate finan
cial methods would restore confidence
and set in motion the machinery o
progress and development. The
Congress was, therefore, convened il
extra session, the emergency being
urgent, and now, after weeks of labol

with tariff bill which, as Senator

Don'ts About Millinery.

Do not wear hat or bonnet out Of
proportion to the head, no matter what
the prevailing mode may be. The long,
full face surmounted with a tiny hat
or bonnet is ludicrous.
Do not wear wide trimming if you
possess a small face, and heavy trim
ming is quite as Objectionable.
Do not wear a severely plain bonnet
if you have no bangs. Supply softened
effect by wearing bonnets or toques with

Do not wear short bonnet. Permit

MR.. WILLIAM Armstrong.

ST have been a sufferer for eight years
with that horrible disease, Eczema, at
times all over my body, and no person
can describe the burning and itching
had to endure.
''The extent of my sufferings can be
appreciated when l state that my con-
dition was such that I could not take
my bed, and for three months 1 never
laid down, but was compelled to sit in
my chair when not moving around. l
was treated by the best of physicians
with no success, and tried all the patent
medicines recommended for Eczema,
without any good results. l then went
to the Indiana Mud baths, with the same
results, and then to Mt. Clements, the
celebrated medical resort, where the
treatment partially helped me, but the
disease shortly returned. l went to
Florida, thinking that change of eli
mate and water and the citron fruit
might cure me, but found no cure.
''I then tried S. S. and after three days
the burning and itching subsidized, and
I continued to improve steadily until
was we1l-entirely cured. After COM
mencing S. s. S. 1 never put an exter-
nal application to my limbs or any part
of my body. You may refer to me any
person suffering from Eczema. l will
always keep the S. S. S. in my house.
for I consider it the best blood medicine
of the present age. l am seventy years
of age and am now in perfect health"
For real blood diseases relief can only
be obtained BY using a real blood rene
dy. So many people who are sufferers
from an obstinate or deep-seated blood
disease make the mistake of taking REM
edies which at best are only tonics and
cannot possibly reach their trouble. Ii
is in Just such cases which other so-cslled
blood remedies cannot reach that S. SIS.
has made some of the most wonderful
cures.
S. S. S. cures permanently Cancer,

Women Not Emotional.

In defending the cause of woman's
suffrage against the statements that
women are too emotional to be trusted
with the ballot Mrs. Alice Stone Black
well points out that in the states where
for the first time women voted for a
president not single instance is record
ed of woman going insane through
political excitement or committing sui
eide or drawing a revolver or bowie
knife, while she instances many cases
where men didal1 these things in south
ern and eastern states. Moreover, in
disputing the assertion made by Mas
sachusetts assemblyman in the state
legislature that eff women were allow
ed to vote an. insane asylum would have
to be opened in every ward in Boston, -
she says that the last state census proves
that there are only three lunatics in
Wyoming, and that these three are men.

Itching,
Burning,
Eczema

Is the external indication of a con-
dition of the blood which produces a
fiery irritation almost unbearable. 1t is
a mistake to think that this local lrrita-
ton is the disease itself-it is simply an
evidence of disordered condition of the
blood. The seat of the disease is in the
blood, and this is why the various salves
and ointments usually applied have no
effect whatever. They cannot possibly
reach the origin of the trouble; only a
blood remedy can do that. S. S. S. is
without an equal for blood diseases, and
promptly and permanently cures Eczema
and removes all faint.
Much torture could be avoided if the
first itching symptoms were needed and
a course of SIS. taken promptly, as APP
parent1y insignificant s<in irritations
usually develop into the worst form
of Eczema unless properly treated.
1t matters not what other treatment
has been tried in vain, S. S. S. always
gets at the seat of the disease, and
forces it out.

dent and highly respected citizen of

Married Too Young.

At a recent term of the court in South
Paris, Me-, there was an unusually
large number of divorce cases, and it
was brought out that many of the wom-
en- were married very young. One of
them was married at IA and several
others at 16 and II. The blame here
seems to have been with the parents,
and the judge asked several Of them
why they had allowed their daughters
to marry as they had. One father an
swered, because was fool" and a
mother said, 81 told my daughter that
she was too young and that she would
be divorced before five years, but she
was just the age when girls know more
than their mothers do. The judge is
reported to have replied to that remark,
ayes, and just the age when girls are
afraid they will die old maids"

Christening the Bicycle.

Christening ones bicycle is the latest
fancy, said to have originated with the
artistic and romantic Frenchman, who
pours bottle of champagne over the
handle bars of his wheel, at the same
time personifying it with name. Pos
sibly this fad originated in France, but
as long ago as last summer a young Ia
dy on the park slope, enamored with
wheeling and everything pertaining
thereto, gathered her intimate friends
for the event, and then, breaking the
bottle before them, poured the contents
over her pet steed, which she christen-
ed Stella, meaning the ''star'' cycle on

To Polish Lamp Lenses.

Do you want to know how to polish
the lenses of your lamp? Here you are:
First clean the surface with pad of
cotton wool, then cover the pad with
cotton velvet, charged with fine rouge.
This will not only remove the scratches,
but will also impart brilliancy to the
glass. Glass fronts for lanterns sh hld
be not only clear, but brilliant as well,
and this comes partly of polishing.
