USE FOR THE OLD Wells.
Artistic Ideas Evolved from Trifles OF
Chiffon.

Artistic Ideas Evolved from Trifes of
Chiffon.
The problem of what to do with your
old wells has at last been solved. scores
of women in the past have looked dis
appointedly at the quantity OF yelling
in their possession, conscious that IL
was past wearing in the ordinary way,
and not seeing what further use could
possibly be made Of it. But now it is the
order of the day to waste nothing, ana
women clever with their needles and OF
artistic proclivities have found place
for wells once cast aside. Given the
know how" you can do almost any
thing in the way Of dress decoration
with bit Of veil Hats can be trimmed
with it and a veil draped cleverly on
hat makes without question an ex-
traordinarfly pretty effect. A hat
adorned with a VEIL besides, needs lit
lie other ornament. Another use for
old veiIs is rufiing the bottoms of petit
coats with them. This requires some
skill. and the rufling must be done
daintily, bat 1t is a famous effect for a
petticoat. Again, the front OF ball
frocks can be decked with these, and
;uff1es for the wrists of dresses are quite
~ossible. Some girls make collarettes
of their old wells. and yet others entire
sleeves. A number Of wells of the same
sort make capital sleeves-sleeves of a
generally fluffy and seductive effect.
Ornaments for the hair are much in
vogue Just now, and here is where the
old veil comes in the most aptly. ChouX
is the name the French give to the
CONNECTIONS Of hair dressing that every
woman is enthusiastic over just now,
and Veil is as, perfect raw material for
one of these choux as could we'll be i'm
agined. The puffed-up daintiness of
these gives them their charm. They are
worn in puffs or in bows with ribbon
aigrettes, and great variety of styles
is possible. This is the very latest fash
ion of the springtime If one is fortu-
nate enough to own any of the Italian
wells of white It should be remembered
that these are the most modish possible
to deal with, and are the most fashion
able to make over in any Of the ways

THE PHoNooRAPHic CLOCK.

Evils and Benefits of an Invention just
Put on the Market In Germany.
From the New York Sun: Some mod
ern inventions are boon to humanity
and others are not. The Photographic
clock which has just been launched
upon the market in Germany belongs
to the latter category. One must ad-
nit the alarm clock in the theory of
modern life, but Photographic alarm
clock adds insult to injury. If one must
be awakened, one must; but how can
one turn over and take the final lux
urious forty winks when the depress-
| ing program of busy day has been
shouted into ones ears? Things that
seemed natural and practicable the
night before present an appalling front
| in the early morning; and the break
| fast hour, announced in strident tones,
is much more insistent than when sug-
gested by an impersOnal metallic clang.
| Some valuable possibilities the new
| invention does possess. The housewife
needn't laboriously explain breakfast
details to the servant at night, and IND
! the next morning that all important
points have been conscientiously for
gotten. She sets the photographic
alarm for an early hour, talks directions
| into it, and the next morning the cook
| is Weakened by a stern voice telling her
exactly what is expected Of her IN re-
gard to breakfast preparation. Pater-
familias, too, can work the cOmbina-
ton. No more will he sit up until his
pretty daughters caller goes home and
resort to time-honored hints to hasten
/ the departure He will not slam SHUT
tiers and noisily lock doors and bid the
other members of the family good night
at the top Of his voice and drop his
shoes on the bedroom floor with force
that shakes the parlor chandeliers, and
call down to the daughter that she must
be careful about turning off the gas
and locking the door. He will never De
goaded by a sense of parental duty into
walking into the parlor and making a
| scene and reducing the daughter TO a
point of tears. Oh, no; he will simply
set the photographic alarm for the hour
when he thinks young men should END
their calls. Then he will go serenely
to bed; and when the fatal hour strikes
a specimen Of the old gentleman's hnest
IRONY will be hurled at the offending
guest. Exit young man. The maiden
wrathfully weeps alone.

In physics and natural history there

variety and quality will be revelation
to one who is not used to following
them in these interests.

On the verge of insanity, Miss Hattie
King, of Ithaca, n. Y, was checked IN
the course that was taking her rapidly to
the grave, and restored to her friends in
sound physical and mental health and

The change for the better in this charm

In public her friends could hardly Believe

them.
Miss King became greatly weakened
by a complication of physical troub1es,
and was looked Upon by her friends and
family as one doomed to early death.
Her stepfather, Charles NJ. Burnett, tells
of her strange cure as follows;

The Kenosha Bicycle club was form
ally organized last night at an informal
meeting held on the sidewalk in front
of Barted's bicycle repair hop. The
attendance was very small, but those
present we're very enthusiastic over the
prospects of the new club.
Already 80 members have been
placed on the roll and many others
have signifed their willingness to
become members as soon as the club
gets we'll under way. No officers were
elected at the meeting last evening on
account of the small attendance, but
this will be in order at a meeting to be
held next Tuesday evening. The
object of the club will be to promote a
series of bicycle races in Kenosha, and
if possible to build a track for such
purposes. Early in September Keno
sha will be expected to entertain the
L. A. W. circuit races and the club
will attempt to provide for this.

CONGRESSMAN COOPER HERE.
He Talks Entertainingly of the Political
Status and Harbor improvements.

Congressman Cooper came down
from Racine Thursday afternoon to
look over his fences for the coming
campaign. The favorite congressman
paid the News a very pleasant visit
and talked entertainingly of things of
interest at the national capital. Il
regard to the harbor Congressman
Cooper stated that the matter was pro-
crossing as swiftly as possible and the
prospects of success were exceedingly
fattering. OF course the war and it's
attendant expense have made great
drain on the national finances, but the
harbor question is regarded as a most
important one and will undoubtedly
receive very early consideration. The
inactivity of the city in failing to ar
range a plan to meet the national
house half way in the matter is a
cause of great discredit to Kenosha
and some action should be taken. In
speaking of the political situation Con-
gresham Cooper said that from what
he had seen the Republicans in Wiscon-
sin were never in better scendition and
every indication points to great vic
tory at the polls at the coming cleo
ton. Congressman Cooper refused to
say anything in regard to the congress
sional campain, but stated that his
friends were managing his campaign
and he was assured that his candidacy
was being properly taken care of. In
regard to the opposition against him
Mr.. Cooper stated that he was exceed
ingly sorry that it had originated in
a paper which had formerly been very
friendly to him, but the cause of such
opposition was too clearly visible to
need any explanation.
