One may soften the effect of brilliant or

muslin turned-oyer bands, which are fresh,
simple and almost invariably becoming, and
much more to be desired than the stiff linen
collars. Every woman realizes that fresh,
stiff .inen collar will make her look fresh and
neat and pretty as no other device for her
morning and everyday frock will, and being
wise she has adopted the straight collars with
much enthusiasm, and it is too bad to say
that, besides being uncomfortable, they seem
to make the neck ugly, whether because they
are SO stiff and prevent any movement or ex-

Big Election Bets in New York.

The betting in New York on the State
election was Unprecedented. Over $500 COG
was bet in Wall street alone, and one firm
placed $275 900 in bets
Early in the campaign the betting odds
favored Roosevelt, but the Tammany bet
ting fund changed the odds, so that for a
time they were 10 to and 10 to on Van
WICK. There was a rush of eager Roose-
welt betterS to cover the Tammany cash,
and all that was offered at such odds was
quickly absorbed. The disappearance OF
Tammany money resulted in the odds re-
verting sharply so as to make Roosevelt
again the favorite at 10 to s for large bets,

The largest bet in the Wall street district

The doctors say that cold ankles produce
more colds in the head-the unloveliest of
predicaments for wOman-than any other
form of feminine carelessness. A French
woman once said, Every shiver brings a
wrinkle, and it seems to be true that to sit
around cold is about as hard on ones good
looks as on ones temper. George MacDon-
aid once excuses his hero from mental effort
one night by describing how cold his room
was, and as his mental effort at that time
included in part his moral responsibility, the
plot thickens and the moral is, avoid cold
feet, chat is, thin, low shoes and thin
stockings, cold rooms and being cold gen.
orally. 1t is well enough TO like cold weather
and to be brisk and exercise and glow in it,
and to endure cold rooms if you be not cold

FOR THE BETTER HALF.

Mrs Rorer, who has come to he our recog-
nized authority on kitchen matters, recon-
mends small well-Iighted kitchen, with both
the table and stove in the light, with the table
suited to the hight of the cook and zine
covered, so that hot utensils may be putdown
ON it. This matter of the hight OF kitchen
table, she says is as important as that of
adjusting school children's desks to their
size-a matter whiclfisn now regarded as very
important. Most women will laugh at the
idea of a careful adjustment of her kitchen
table to inches, but the day may come when
the average woman will educate herself into
belief that the kitchen may receive some of
the benefits of the 10th century progress.
The average woman is carrying her conserya-
tism too far. This is,a day of improvement,
and she is wrong to not take advantage of it.
Mrs. Rorer laughs at some tricks of women
that they will sharpen their one kitchen
knife on the side OF the house or on the
stove, and that no clever invention is ever
kept for the one use for which it was desired.
She will use the latest thing in can openers
to lift stove lids, her potato masher to drive
in the towel nail, and her bread knife for
potato peeling.

Death of Mrs. Wells, Wife of w. S.
 Wells of Whitney Avenue.
 MT. Wells, wife of W. S. Wells of Will liams Wells & Co, died yesterday morning at 6:45 o'clock at her home, 3S2 Whitney avenue of typhoid mala- ria. Mrs. Wells had been ailing for some time with what appeared to be ordinary malaria, and the ailment de- veloped sufficiently to confine her to her room about four weeks ago. No danger was anticipated until about ten days ago, when the malady took a se- rious turn.
 Mrs. Wells was fifty-nine years old She leaves besides her husband, one son, William F. Wells, and two daugh- ters, the Misses Genevieve and Margue- rite Wells. Mrs Wells was a member of St. Johns Episcopal church and of the Woman's Guild of that church. She was also member of the Ladies Ma val Veterans association of the United States.
 The funeral will be held Saturday af- ternoon at o'clock with services in St. Johns church at which the Rev. Stuart Means will officiate.
