TO MAKE AT HOME.
LINEN NAPKINS THAT ARE VERY
PRETTY AND NOVEL.

A Variety Of Table Decoration Mach In Fa-
vor This SeasOn--They are Easily Made
and Fern = Most Acceptable Present
Various Modes of characterization.
Something new in napkin rings has
recently been devised by a clever wo-
man. These rings are made Of two
thieknesses Of medium, or rather heavy
weight round thread, bleached grass
linen. They are cut with one pointed
and one square end, close to the re-
quired size, with button and button
hole, and have a small design Of an in
itial jewel, or initial flower letter, or
bird, or a tiny spray embroidered on
the outside toward the pointed end.

Tragedy in a Honeymoon.

A tragedy of peculiar sadness is re-
ported from Greenville. Mr.. and Mrs.
l.. c. Williams went yesterday to Wis
it the family of Lucius Tate on their
honeymoon trip. The bride was nine
teen years old and very pretty girl
and popular in Greenville. This
morning while IN bed In the guest
chamber there was a noise Of some
thing falling or the floor and almost
simultaneously the report Of a pistol.
Mrs. Williams uttered a cry, and on
her husband taking her in his arms,
exclaimed, Darling, am killed." and
died. The young man is almost Graz
ed, and may not be able to endure the
shock.
Mrs. Tate explains the tragedy by
saying there was a pistol in the room
and to keep it out of the children's
way, she put it between the headboard
and the mattress. In some way il
was dislodged, fell to the floor, and
was discharged. The bullet struck
Mrs. Williams in the back of the neck
and ranged Washington
Post.

Oar Watches the Best.
Post

The superiority of American watch
manufacture is gradually being ac-
knowledged all over the globe. 1t is
hard to predict, says a Paris paper,
what an Englishman would say if the
accuracy of the time given by the
Greenwich observatory, which sets
the time for the civilized world,
should be questioned by the owner
of an American watch. Yet this was
done recently, and the Yankee watch
was right. One day Mr.. Thomas
Wheate, of London, noticed that the
time ball was, according to his Wal
than watch, few seconds fast Con-
fident that his time-piece was not at
fault, he wrote to the astronomer
royal, asking him to let him know if
the watch was right or wrong. In re-
ply he received a letter to the effect
that on the day in question the time
ball through an accident, dropped
about eighteen seconds before the cor
rect moment.

HOME DYBING MADE EASY.
EVEN A CHILD CAN DYE WITH DIA-
MOND DYES.

Diamond Dyes Color Anything Any Color
Make Old CIOaks, Gowns, Scarfs and Suits
Look Like New-HOw to Dress Well at
Small Cost.
Diamond Dyes are wonderful help to
economical dressing. These simple home
dyes will color anything any color, and
they make closks, stockings, dresses,
feathers, laces, curtains, ETC., look like
new.
Many Of the Diamond Dyes are made
from specially prepared dyestuffs, and In
no other way can home dyeing be done
so simply and satisfactorily.
They come in all colors, and the plain
and explicit directions on the package
make 1t easy for the most inexperienced
to use them with success. Even child
can dye a rich, perfect color, If the Dla-
mond Dyes are used.
Do not risk your material with dyes
that claim to color both cotton and wool
with the same dye, for 1t is impossible to
get satisfactory results with dyes of that
character. In Diamond Dyes, there are
special dyes for cotton and special dyes
for wool, and they are all guaranteed 70
give satisfaction, if used according to
directions.

This enlargement with me often pro-
duces severe palpitation, which never
lasts more than ten minutes. A slight
dizziness will occasionally follow.
Twice my heart has skipped beat. In
each case it has caused me to stumble
and fall. l would urge my fellow ath-
letes to notice carefully this vital Or
gan.
With the proper instrument the &C
ton of the heart can be heard very dis
tinctly. 1t looks like a small telephone
receiver, and is placed over the heart.
To this are fastened two connections,
similar to those of photograph. Up
on placing these in each ear the heart
beats are plainly heard, and the sound
greatly resembles that of small sue
ton pump. One can hear a "chik-a-
pung," "chik-a-pung" every time the
blood passes through the valves
Invariably | am asked, What do you
think about during a race" OF out
side matters hardly anything. l may
think a little of the crowd; perhaps
not. If l have party of friends there
listen for their announcement every
time / pass. OF course l think of my
opponents and if possible try to catch
glimpse of their features to see how
they are holding out. l study my own
condition and know how much l can
stand at the finish.
Now we come to the last quarter.
The pace has been hot and l am tired.
The applause of the crowd seems like
faraway murmur, and l can hardly
hear my coacher on the side lines. The
home stretch is reached and it needs
one more effort. Here is the crucial
test of strength and nerve. The faint
hearted racer stops here and will not
punish himself. Punishment it GER
tainly is, and the face is an excellent
mirror. The agony shown there is Of
ten startling, and in a great measure
portrays the strain undergone.
The heart pounds like sledgeham-
mer, heavy mist grows before the
eyes, the ears buzz and ring like a saw
mill, the lungs are overtaxed and
breathing is hard indeed, knife seems
to be in ones stomach. and you can
hardly stagger along. At last the tape
is reached and the will power relaxes.
the principal desire being to grab at
anybody OF anything for support and
then nature asserts herself.

Jewelled initial letters are much in
favor. They are outlined in gold color
or royal blue, and then set with jewels.
The initial of the jewel must be the
same, if possible, as the letter in which
it is set. R, for instance, calls for
rubies; S for sapphires, A for anne
thyst, B for beryl or bloodstone, T for
turquoise or green tourmaline, and so
on. Flower letters are worked on the
same principle r calls for roses, F
for forget w for (swee) Will
liam, wallfiower, wild rose, Wistaria,
&c.
A very pretty variety can be obtain
ed in this manner for half a dozen or
dozen rings. The linen is cut into
strips about two and a quarter inches
wide and eight inches long, which al
lows of one-quarter inch turnings all
round. A true half square point is
made at one end of each eight inch
strip before the rings are made up.
The embroidery is also done on the
upper piece before putting together,
and the design is placed near, but not
too close to the pointed end, so that
when buttoned the design will be up
permost, thus enabling the members of
the family to distinguish their own
rings at a glance.
The embroidered piece is then sewn
to plain piece for a lining, turned
through the square end, smoothed,
pulled in shape, the square end blind
stitched up and a tiny trail of briar
stitch of French dots carried all round
the ring to keep the edges in shape. A
buttonhole is worked in the point and
the ring completed by a button at the
other end.
If buttons with shanks are used the
shanks can be sewn in place. or an
eyelet hole made at the square end of
the linen and the shank put through
and secured by ring or small tape tie
on the under side. This plan admits
of easy removal for the laundry, and,
as no two buttons need be alike, is a
good way of using up odd buttons too
handsome to throw away.
The same kind of ring made larger
about three inches wide by ten or
twelve inches long-in colored linen
may be used for music rolls, handker-
chief holders, SC. One dainty matron
has several in her piece basket for
holding together various kinds OF pat
terms, scraps and the like, in their re-
spsctive rolls. and finds them as con-
venient as they are decorative.
There is NO end to the pretty odds
and ends and knickknacks that a wo-
man of taste oan employ in adding to
the comfort, convenience and orna-
mentation OF her house. Even If not
instin ctiVely ingenious. suggestions are
always to be had in plenty. and all she
needs is a set of nimble fingers and the
materials to work with.
II is quite surprising for how little
cost scores and scores OF charming OBJ
joOts can be constructed these days for
the Identification Of the home.

Speaking of the Prince of Naples,
Signor Giarelli says: His hobbies are
of a scientific nature. He is, perhaps,
the only real electrician among all the
present princes of Europe. He has
never occupied himself much with lit
erature, music or painting, but he is
a master of electric mechanism. He
is very learned in all that concerns
the application of electricity to light,
motive power, sound and photogra-
ply. He was one of the first and
most successful eXperimenters with
the X rays after their discovery, and
in Rome his residence in the Quirinal
had the aspect, during his royal high
ness bachelor days, of a scientific
laboratory"

A SKATING EXPERT.
CHAMPION sweEzEY WRITES ABOUT
THE EXHlLARATlNG SPORT.

The Excitement and Strain of Racing Pro-
duce Nervousness and Enlargement of tho
Heart-Advice to Athletes Upon the Way
to Train for Racing on the Ice.
New York's champion ice skater, Ar
thur B. Sweeney, has written the fol-
lowing article, telling of the excitement
Of racing and particularly of the aston
lshing enlargement of his heart, due
to the terrible pressure upon it, which
has necessitated his retirement from
future contests. He writes a warning
to other skaters that they carefully
study the effect on the heart of racing:
1t Is now a well-known fact that
heart trouble is responsible for my
retirement from the skating field.
Many causes have produced this, ner-
vousness being the chief one. 1t is my
misfortune to be of very nervous dis
position, which is increased before and
during competition. I have actually
stood on the scratch line, waiting for
the pistol with my teeth chattering and
my knees shaking, simply through
pure nervousness. All of this has a
very bad effect on the heart.
Every athlete worries more or less
about his races and further excites it.
Again. my lungs ara highly developed
and take great deaf OF strength from
the heart One with poor wind" is
very seldom affected with heart trou-
BILE. More than half of the athletes
Of my acquaintance admit that they
have this weakness in some form. The
constant nervousness, hard exercise
and competition gradually wear ON it
and the organ becomes enlarged.
Should one continue to race, heart
disease pure and simple is likely to
result; while, on the contrary, IL
stopped in time, it is quite probable
that the heart will decrease in size and
assume its normal condition. In two
years competition 1 have knocked
about five years off OF my life. All
the medals and silverware in existence
cannot repay me for such loss.

Some Curious Compliments.

The compliments paid by the poor
are often put in an amusing way. One
old lady who was very fond of the rec
tor said to Mr.. Bernays; You know,
sir. us likes the rector, is ears is so
clean!"-surely an odd reason for pa
rochial affection. Another admirer
once declared with regard to the
whole staff of clergy: You are all so
plain" "a word of high commenda-
tom, but as for the vicar. 'e's beau
tiful" The greatest compliment,
though at the same time the most Gu
rious Mr.. Bernays ever heard, was
paid by a working man to a certain
bishop, famous for his simple kindli-
ness: What l likes bout the bishop
is 'e's not a gentleman"

Mr.. James Jones, of the drug firm of
Jones & Son, Cowden, ILL.,, in speaking
of DR.. Kings New Discovery, says that
last winter his wife was attacked with
LaGrippe, and her case grew so serious
that physicians at Cowden and Pana
could do nothing for her. 1t seemed
to develop into Hasty Consumption.
Having DR.. Kings New Discovery in
store, and selling lots of it, he took a
bottle home, and to the surprise of all
she began to get better from first dose,
and half dozen dollar bottles cured her
sound and we'll. DR.. Kings New Dis

HEAVY OLD SHAKER.
Weighs 800 Pounds, is Seventy Years Old
and Breaks Horses.


and Breaks Horses.
Logan county boasts of one of the
unique characters in Kentucky in the
person of Lorenzo Pearcefield, who
since childhood has been an honored
member of the Shaker community at
South Union. Mr.. Pearceheld is now
close on to seventy years Of age, and
weighs about 300 pounds.
There is not another man In Logan
or any other county, so far as Is
known, who is seventy years old and
weighs 800 pounds, who is noted as
the most successful horse breaker in
his section. Yet this Is true OF the
colossal old Shaker. The secret Of
his success in this direction seems to
lie in his great strength and courage.
He is absolutely fearless and almost
as strong as an ordinary horse. He
has a system all his own, which con-
sists in first demonstrating to the per-
feet satisfaction OF the horse that he
is master of the situation. To do this
it is sometimes necessary to throw
the horse down and sit upon its head,
which Mr.. Pearcifleld, does in the most
approved style. After 300 pounds has
sat upon his horseship's head for a
little while he is satisfied. Mr.. Pear
cifield then bitches him to his little
cart and drives about and looks at the
country. So great is his fame as a
tanner of wild horses that the farmers
for miles around bring him unman-
ageable horses to break, and none has
baffled his skill and strength.
