the mind as well as the body. for an
excess of fat is a certain indication OF
not over exercise of the brain.
Sleep is a great fat producer and must
not be over-indulged in, six to eight hours
being the maximum. Hot baths tend to
make the body fiabby and do not per
manently reduce fat Cold baths, on the
contrary, do reduce fat. The fat is car
bonaceous and cold bath, by lowering
the temperature of the body, uses sufti-
temperature of the body to normal.
Warm clothing has the same effect as
hot baths and should be avoided by one

The velvet crown will be very much

with small tips setting out from the
crown beyond the brim. This makes

Imported hats are effective and varied
this year. L saw one which was such
medley of bird of Paradise plumes and
lace and ribbon and silk that l should
hesitate about describing 1t. No straw

with brown autumn flowers, with their
green leaves running along the brim
Lace IS very much used upon the hats
and very nice it looks as it falls over

very gently with the fingers which have

PEACHES-I have heard that constant
applications of castor oil will remove
warts, but I do not positively know that
this Is so. A lunar caustic pencil will re-
move them. Touch the center of the wart
lightly with the pencil once a day. It will
turn black and gradually disappear. Great
care must be taken not to touch with the
caustic pencil the surrounding skin, else
a stain and scar may result.

COLLECTIONS
OF CRITTERS

GFHE unseen. but useful, garter has
been seized upon as the pretext for
i collection, says the Chicago Chront-
Gle. Chicago girls are not now con-
tent with two for week days and an
extra pair for Sunday, but gather garters
in place Of souvenir spoons or pictures
Carriers all gemmed with precious stones
and quaint old-fashioned things that held
in place the silk hosiery of grandmamma
are laid side by side with the patriotic
garter" made of red, white and blue rib
bon and held together by an army but
ton of brass
A little South Side woman was one of
the first to turn to this fad and she has
one of the handsomest collections in the
city. Her treasures are not shown to
every conner, but her more intimate
friends have had glimpses of her souvenir
garters, One who had not yet learned
that spoon collecting was too old an
amusement to interest the end of the cen
fury young woman was talking to her
the other evening and asked if she had
made a collection of spoons.
"Of course, l made a souvenir spoon
collection, she said, but that is old now
and have turned my attention to some
! thing better. l have a very unique col
! lection of carriers"
Carriers! Do you mean to say that
you have collection of them?"
Why, yeS-yOu know it is the fad now
! in Chicago, and think that I have the
/ most complete collection of any woman.
/ Just wait a moment and I'll bring them
/ down"
! When she returned she carried a large
/ box and several smaller ones.
You know. we all have to have some
/ fad she said with smile. Some gather
| cravats, but ] like to gather garters
! best"
The little woman unwrapped her
precious carriers and explained their
beauties. She has thirty-four pairs and
one, odd one "for luck She, has them
made of every material from cotton to
silk, and the clasps are of brass. silver
or gold, and some are studded with prec-
ious stones. A rlost lovely pair OF sgar-
tiers were made of pink silk ribbon, caught
together with a silver clasp made in a true
lovers knot, set with Tnoonstones
This was sent TO me from New York -
she said, land this silveE fishhook clasp
on these yellow carriers is a Boston
variety
The oldest pair in her collection Were
/ given to her by a Viennese lady of arts-
1 tocratic birth, in whose family they had
/ been for more than 100 years. The band
! has, of course, been replaced many times,
/ but the bronze clasps show the wear
/ they have had, brushing against silk and
muslin until they have acquired a bright
/ ness almost like gold. The clasps are of
/ a shield shape and bear the coat of arms
/ of a noble Austrian family. A pair of
/ carriers made of tricolored webbing and
! clasped by an ingenious device soldered
/ to q United States army button is one of
/ the valued treasures.

The condition of the Monadnock
illustrates the need of naval station
in the Pacific, by the United States.
If we are correctly informed, the
condition of her machinery is such that
it is quite doubtful whether she could
reach the Philippines if she did not
have the opportunity to make repairs
in this port. She has been ordered
to the Philippines for some definite
purpose. Her failure to reach them
may disturb the plans of the campaign.
In the event Of war with a strong
nation, serious consequences might re-
suit in the disabling of a vessel, under
such conditions. The Government at
Washington will more fully than ever
realize the difficulty of conducting a
Campaign in the Pacific without the
power to use these Islands.
