FEMININE FRILLS
New Notions In RTBbons ana Trim
minEs for the Seasons
Costumes.

The cool weather makes II seem late
for the shirt waist, but It IS too com
Portable to be given up for some time
to come. There is the best kind Of 8 lit
tie ironing board on the market for
ironing the sleeves. It Is shaped Ike
nothing 50 much as q bicycle saddle,
the broad end to go into the gathers at
I the top Of the sleeves and the point
for the gathers below the euh.
The smart girl who saves her money
by making up at home small acces-
sOries which cost 50 much Is devoted 70
her sewing machine just now. The
sashes or scarfs for the neck, ribbon, or
silk hemmed at the sides are stitched
through lengthwise with row after row
of stitching, and they present then
that smart appearance without a friu
or bit Of fringe at the end that nothing
else will give. Then little belt stitched
in the same way, not new, perhaps, as
it has been worn as an accessory 70
gowns, and made Of the same material
for good while, but there Is nothing
more attractive, and It IS not bulky
and does not make the waist look
large.
A pretty bow Of velvet for the hair is
more chic and has more style If q piping
Of white satin or silk Is stitched on the
edge. A velvet ribbon an inch and q
half wide with a piped edge fl very at
tractiYe.
The great dragon flies or darning
needles for the hair, larger than life
and much more brilliant with their blue
and green gauze wings, should be used
for summer rather than winter decora-
tons. It is their duty as well as their
pleasure in life to feed upon mosqui-
toes. A wide knowledge OF natural his
tory does not usually come within the
range Of the fashion writer, but com
mon sense would make IL seem that
nature would give mosquitoes the
knowledge Of the appearance Of their
natural enemies Hence why not use
these beautiful mOsquito-loTing insects
for ornaments and also to serve the pur-
pose Of the scarecrow in the grain field
TO frighten away their natural prey and
keep the wearers from being victim
lied?
No more daring exhibition Of black
and white has been seen in trimmings
than in the heavy Passementeries this
fall There are not occasionally black
threads in the white, OF white in the
black, or edges Of one for the other.
but the pattern shows the black and
the white, each combined In large
patches.-N. Y. Times.

MENACE TO PASTURE LANDS.
4 New Weed That Destroys other
Vegetation Lately Brought
from Europe.

The orange hawkweed has made its
appearance IN the west during the past
season. 1t Is a comparatively new
plant, having been introduced recently
from Europe, and although not regard
ed in its native land as particularly
noxiOus, has become a great nuisance
here and threatens TO destroy other
vegetation highly priced by gardeners
and arbOriculturists.
The first American apPearaDce-Ot the
hawlcweed was in Vermont. The seeds
were distributed as a premium by one
Of the leading agricultural journals Of
New York state Within the last decade
the plant has been spreading as weed
in an alarming manner. Investigations
at the Vermont experiment station have
shown that It Is already the worst weed
known and is continuing each year to
invade new areas. It Il easily recOg-
nized By its hame-red flowers and
spreading hairy leaves. The first bios
SONS open in June If these are moved
It continues to send up scattering flower
stalks during the rest Of the summer.
Fortunately clean cultivation VIII
kill It wherever 1t is praciced. One OF
the serious difficulties IS that the weed
is allowed to spread along many road
sides to the menace Of the adjacent
land. The really great danger, how
ever, is that IL rapidly iuvsdes the pas
lures, and when once fully established
In such places it rs practically impossi-
bic 20 exterminate it. The owners Of
such fields should carefully guard them
against II. Every plant found should
be promptly uprOOted, on, better stin,
killed out by salt The weed is very
sensitive 70 salt, which should be scat
tered broadcast 50 as to reach the leaves
OF al plants. II not TOO much salt is
used II may serve as q fertilizer 10 the
grass. The salt does not act as a POis-
on, but kills the weeds by drawing the
water out Of the leaves In order to act
most thoroughly, therefore, dry salt

should be done during dry, hot wealth

TO BOTTLE FRUIT.
Useful to the Young
Housewife.

For fruit gather the kind required
on dry day, when it is just coming to
perfection, and see that it is quite sound
and as even in size as possible Peel,
core, stone, etc, these as may be neces-
sary, then pack them in wide-mOuthed
bottles pretty closely, and then I'LL up
each bottle with a sirUp made by boil
ing one-half pound loaf sugar in &
quart Of water for Is minutesi set
these bottles thus filed and cOrked, but
not as tightly as you can, in a kettle Of
tepid water, separating the bottles
with old cloths or hay, lest they should
break when the water begins to boil;
cover the kettle closely and bring the
water very gently to the boil and keep
it boiling till the fruit is cooked;
then lift out the bottles singly, stand
ing each on a warm, wet towel, and,
after removing the lid, I'LL up at once
with more boiling strip, which should
be ready on the hob for this purpose,
and screw down the lid as tight as pos
sible. AS soon as it is screwed down
invert the bottle, 10 see If 1t is really
alright. II 1t is, 1t can be stored, but If
the slightest moisture exudes you must,
ing strip; while If it has been allowed
to get cold, you must turn out the
bottles and rebOiI their contents before
returning them to the bottles. If, how
ever, the bottles have stood some days
before the leakage is discovered, the
chances are that some small amount
of fermentation viii have been set up;
and in this case the fruit should be re-
boiled and used at once as compete,
PURGE, etc, as it never does to dry and
store fruit that has begun to ferment
to however small an extent. Peas may
be preserved precisely in this way, only
using plain boiling water instead Of
strip to I'LL up with. This water should
be sailed in the proportion Of tea
spoonful Of salt to each half gallon OF
water. Tomatoes, and, indeed, all vege-
tables, may be cooked in this way. Thus
fruit or vegetables may be kept al win
ter for various dishes, when fresh fruit
cannot be obtained. When used for
preserves take out the fruit and reboiI
the strip, adding sufficient sugsF to
make a thick sirup.-BOston Globe.

TRYING 70 REGAIN Possession.

The officials Of the Union Pacific
Land company have announced their
purpose to begin action soon against
Russell county to set aside certain sales
Of lands in 1897, for 1896 taxes. These
lands belonged TO the Union Pacific
railway at that time, and the company
was then in receivers hands. Part Of
the railway lands we're bought By the
county and other tracts fell into pri-
vate hands. The county commissioners
compromised on the tracts held By the
county, by throwing ali interest of In

Ronifaue.

He was 3 dovny young drummer, dap
per and dashing, but the crooks and
turns Of the river route were not en-
tirely an open book to him. He had
gone ashore at q forlorn little landing
just to stretch his legs and show the
natives what the real thing looked like.
BE had not even taken his sample cases
up town, for there was no chance to
DO business in 50 small and sleepy a
settlement. Somehow the sound OF the
packets departing bell did not reach
him, and when he strOlled down to the
river hank after his survey Of the VII
lage his boat was well out in the stream
and churning the Ohio with all the en-
ergy OF her mighty stern wheel. He
yelled and waved hat, handkerchief
and coat, but the pilot had his eye glued
on rifle ahead and nobody was look
ing toward the vessels wake. Then the
drummer went uptown, filing the ma
lariaI atmosphere full Of choice Cincin-
natl profanity.

quired Of the landlord Of the only inn
in the place.

Dunno" said the landlord, unless
you might get somebody to hook up and
drive you down to Banner City"
'"Ten dollars if il can be done, but I
don't believe there's a plug in town that
can 20 Is miles and catch that boat with
the start she's got"
'WelI, better try it." consolingly an
Bwered the landlord. Here, BilT'-to

and drive the gent to Banner City to
catch the Hopkins. Five apiece in It

Dolly was soon hooked up and a sorry
nag she was. The drummer's heart
sank within him, but the time for tax
ing desperate chances had come, so
he handed over his ten and the journey
began. His Jehu drove straight TO the
river bank, hailed the ferry and they
were In Kentucky in few minutes.
After they had bOEled merrily over
q good road for a short time the drum
mer ventured to inquire how far 1t
might be to Banner City, anyhow,
Eighteen miles by the river and four
miles an half across the bend, said
the driver.
And the drummer had to wait an
