a dispatch from Huntington, w
Va, says George Payne, a prosperous
farmer of Wild Cat creek, has disap-
peared with his wife's stepmother and
all efforts to locate the pair are futile.
Payne went to Huntington several
months ago with his family from
Ohio. His father-in law, Sylvester
Johnston, who is 20 years of age, liv-
ed with him and four weeks ago wed
ded Miss Ella Owens, handsome
young woman, though Payne and his
wife most strenuously objected. The
Payne couple even refused to receive
the elderly groom and his bride. But
matters were arranged amicably at
last and the newly welded pair spent
their honeymoon in the Payne house
hold. But there was much surprise
Sunday morning when Mr.. Johnston
discovered that his wife was gone and
Mrs Payne found that her husband
was missing. An investigation show
ed that the two had left in the same
night.

FLEMING DEFIANT.-After killing
one of crowd of alleged lynchers,
who threatened vengeance for the ia
tai shooting of young Clarence shy
der, Magistrate Oscar j. Fleming. of
Princess Anne county, has issued a
defiant note to all his enemies. He
paid for its insertion in Norfolk
evening paper and invites all who
wish ty come to his home and find
out whether or not he is afraid.
He says Fleming Notifications are
not guarded by any one man, but by
"A million; by the majesty of the law,
and by the consciousness of right. -
which is apparently intended as IA re-
ply to the statement that the garrison
around his farm has been reduced.
The charge against Fleming of threat
enlng to shoot into a crowd attracted
by his presence in Norfolk last week
was dismissed by the police Justice.
The magistrate says his Gordon of
guards still surrounds his house at

Filings For Pillows.

In these days of abundance of downy
sofa cushions, one needs a full purse
if she is to fill all her many pillows
with feathers or down, says an eX-
{ change. Any one Offering a cheap sub
Stitute will be a benefactOr to house
keepers who strive to secure the maxi
mum of comfort at. the minimum of
expense. Among the various mate
rails which may be used, the lightest
and daintiest is the down or silk from
the milkWeed pods. The pods should
down stripped off into the bags or
cushions to be filled. Ti.ese are as
soft as down and much less expensive.
Another useful filling for both light
and hard floor cushions is the down
from the cat-tail flag. The cat-tails
should be gathered just before they
are ripe, and allowed to dry on the
stem for few days, after which they
are ready for use. This is not only
soft, but walm and clean, and will
last for years.
Lawn clippings are excellent for
hammock and piazza cushions, and
sweet clover, sweet grass or rose
leaves added to this increases the fra

may be pulled into shreds and sub
stituted for feathers. Common hops
are often used, as we'll as pine needles

full of paprika. Add the beaten yOlks
of two eggs and one-fourth of a cupful
of vinegar, which must be hot. Cook
this over boiling water until very
thick, stirring often. Whip one-half
pint of cream and add to the cold
dressing just before serving. A chick
en- and walnut salad is made by adding
to an ordinary salad couple of dozen
English walnuts which have been par
boiled and skinned In boiling the
nuts slice of onion, sprig of parsley
and a little of the chicken liquor
should be added to the water. When
the skins have been removed add the
nuts to the chicken salad, garnish with
celery and cover with mayonnaise
dressing.

Fashions and Fabrics.

Waists and skirts are more fashion
able made in combinations of mater1-
ais than in one throughout. This does
not apply to tailor-made gowns, which
seldom show more than one material,
save for the facing of collar or lapels.
Evening waists especially, show 0fteD

chased already prepared for these gar
ments, thus saving the maker an in
finite amount of bother and time.
An odd and striking effect is produc.
ed in cloth costumes for street as well
as the house by using perforated bands
of cloth for trimming, panels, or drap
cry, the silk lining of the costume be-
ing of a contrasting color.
Plush velvet, velour and velveteen
are certain to be very much in evil
dence for constructing outdoor gar
ments this winter. Velvet especially
develops the trim, short jackets most
charmingly, fur being used for the
flaring collar and trimmings. These
Jackets also look we'll made up in
peau de sole or other heavy silk, with
fur or quilted silk for lining.
A very odd trimming for winter
dresses consists of center band of
embroidered, puffed, or spangled white
mOusseline de sole, bOrdered with mar
row strips of fur. This trimming is in
tended to be used on house as we'll as
street costumes.
Beading has again been introduced,
not beaded passementerie, but designs
wrought with beads directly upon the
cloth or silk of the jacket, waist, or
costume. Black beads are generally
used for the decoration, and velvet APP
plique is often combined with them.
Embroidery is much more used On
handsome cloth costumes than braid
ing, the latter style of trimming being
by no means as fashionable as hereto
fore. Rows of eXQuisitely even ma
chine stitching are the only finish on
some gowns, and very attractive anG
dressy they are made by it.
Very long watch chains are no long
Ell fashionable. TO be correct they
should reach just to the waist line, and
the more slender and dainty they are
| the better.
The latest in fOOtgear for women is
the ventilated shoe, which, it is claim
ed, by keeping the feet in healthy air
will also keep them warm and free
from perspira ton. The theory is all
right, and it only remains for Ameri-
can women to test the article and give

Good Recipes.

Peach Dumplings.-ROn good puff
paste into rounds six inches across.
Shape the rounds into cups by pinch
ing up the edges. Set the cups IN a
baking pan, and put in each Il Wig ripe
peach on the seed; also a generous
quantity Of sugar and butter. II you
like things rich, use sWaetcake dough
instead of puff paste. Cook at the
same heat as biscuit.
Duchesse POtatoes.-Blend with two
cups of potatoes freshly boiled in salt
ed water and beaten with a fork Until
light. One-fourth their bulk in dry graf
ed cheese and the same amount Oh pea
nut -four; add the yOlk of an egg and
a teaspOonful of -four. Form into
cakes, dollar size, place Oh buttercd
tin, brush with melted butter and toast
a light brown in a hot oven.
Cheese Straws.-Roll some puff paste
out very thin. Sprinkle it with dry
grated cheese many prefer Parmesan
to any other kind, dust with few
grains of cayenne, roll over in flat
folds, and roll out again very thin.
Sprinkle with cheese as before, fold,
roll out a third time Cut with a pas
try jaeger or very sharp knife into
strips about four inches long and a
quarter of an inch wide. Sprinkle
again with cheese, put one-half of an
inch apart on a fiat pan, and bake in
a rather hot oven until pale brown.
Lift off on unglazed paper, and let
stand until cold.
Nut and Apple Salads.-A salad suit
able for the season is made of nuts,
apples and celery. Cut the apples in
thin slices, shell and boil the chest
nuts fifteen minutes, or until soft;
drain, and when cool cut the chest
nuts and celery in slices. MOisten
with a part of the dressing and put
