CLOVER CUSHION.
CheesecIoth Used for the

You love couch cushions. You have

is-a delicious suggestion which you

adoption.
Last year a girl who spent her sum-
mer in the country carried back in her
trunk the most fragrant, the most
crispy cool of sofa pillows.
All winter long she kept the secret
ing process was not more jealousy
guarded.
A week ago she revealed it. cts a
clover pillow" she said. ''Fll tell you
now, because clover is coming and you
girls viii all want to make one"
This is her recipe:
Arm yourself with broad brimmed
hat and a pair of shears and take
along couple of clean, empty sacks.
Cut off the finest sprays of clover
bloom and with these mix about half
as many leaves. Avoid hard stems
and sticks. Fill your sacks.
When your sack is tied and full put
ii on the grass where the sun can best
shine upon it. You will find by the
time the second bag is stuffed the con-
tents of the first one viii have wilted
to one-half size. The bag will need
reflling.
When the sacks are brought home
spread clean sheet under a sunny win
dow and on this empty your treasure
Spread the blossoms out evenly an6
cover with a second sheet. Let then
remain there for several days. Shake
them up and respread them severa-
times each day until the leaves crackle
when pushed between the fingers. They
will then be ready for the pillow.

ccssity. Cheesecloth makes an excel
lent one for clover cushion Chicago

GOLD PRODUCED IN 1907.
Africa First Place, with the United
States Close Second.

Washington. Oct. 22.-The director
of the mint's report upon the produc-
ton of the precious metals during the
calendar year 1897 has just been SUBJ
mitted to the secretary of the treas
ury. The value of the gold produced
in the United States during the calen-
dar year 1897 was $57,363,000. The
South African republic holds first
place, producing gold to the value of
$57,633,S61; Australasia, $55,6S4, 1872,
and Russia, $23,245,T63.
There was notable increase in the
production of gold in the world dur
ing 1897 over 1896. The United States
increased $4,275,0Oo; the South African
republic made the remarkable gain of
$13,s54 1872; Australasia increased $1O.-
500, 249, and Russia, 81, 709, $40.
The United States produced during
the year 53,S6O,000 fine ounces of sill
yer, and Mexico 5000, $50 fine ounces.
a decrease for the United States of
4,974 800 fine ounces and an increase

REVIEW OF TRADE.
Situation as Outlined by r.. G. Dun &
Co. in Their Weekly Statement
Failures for the Week.

New York, Oct PR G. Dun & Co., in
their weekly review of trade, say: with
growing foreign demand for American
products exchange is influenced mainly by
political uncertainties abroad. While Eu-
rope waits for the outcome between Eng
land and France about the Upper Nile, the
financiers Of all European countries are
trying to force upon each other the
burden of providing cash for the enor-
nous demands of the United States.
England has so managed as to make
France and Germany send most Of the
gold and the resulting war of ex-
changes between foreign nations checks
for the moment the movement of gold this
way Yet these and all other causes do not
so far hinder business as to prevent an
excess over the most prosperous of previ-
Gus years. The exchanges through all
clearing houses for the past week have
been 6 per cent. larger than last year and
1t per cent. larger than in 1892, but outside
New York for the week transactions were
smaller than in 1892.
THE outgo of wheat staggers all
prophets of disaster, but while the price
has advanced three cents at the west the
rise would have been much greater but for
the feeling that the enormous foreign de-
mand may not last. Without doubt many
western farmers are still holding back
their wheat, and yet receipts at the chief
western points have been in three weeks
&c. 1872 494 bushels. against %. 725 sol last year.
1t is significant that this heavy demand
continues after foreign crops, officially re-
ported as fairly large, have been
almost everywhere harvested. The corn
exports continue large, and although it is
the bottom point of the year for corn,
prices have risen nearly Ia cents during
the week.
There is much hesitation in the iron and
steel trade, partly because the outcome
of various combinations in Bessemer pig
steel rails, bars, wire nails and the like
cannot yet be definitely anticipated. If
general buying was expected to result from
these movements it has not appeared thus
far. Yet prices of domestic products have
not declined, and although the tone is some
what weaker for bars and plates, quota
tions are in part sustained by considerable
orders for export. The plate mills have
received orders for $4,000 tons from the
government for ship purposes, and the bar
and billet mills have very encouraging
demand.
Failures for the week have been POI in
the United States, against 224 last year and
"a in Canada. against Sc last year."

Missionary Massacred.

Pretoria, Oct. 22.-Serious trouble
is brewing with the Magato tribe in
the Zoutpansberg district, south of
the Limpo river. The natives recently
massacred a Lutheran missionary and
bis family at the town of Zoutpans-
berg, and the Transvaal government
sent an expedition to punish them.
The affair has now assumed serious
proportions.
Chief Opefu, with 10000 followers
fully armed, and four cannons, sup
piled by white traders, has attacked
the lager. Heavy fighting is pro-
ceeding. The ultimatum of the COM
handing officer of the Transvaal
troops, Gen. P. ]. Joubert, demanding
an unconditional surrender, has been
ignored by the tribesmen, and he has
summoned 5000 Burghers to reinforce
the 5000 now in the field.
