may be greatly assisted and may find
amusement in trying the following idea:
Get a smooth board or strong sheet of
cardboard sixteen inches long and sixteen
inches wide. With ruler and pencil draw
lines an inch apart across the board
from side to side Then turn the board
around and draw lines an inch apart from
end to end, so that the entire board will
be divided into one-inch squares, fifteen
rows running each way.
BY tearing apart an old calendar guam
tity of clearly printed numbers may be
easily cut out The object is now to copy
the multiplication table from an arithmetic
in large figures by cutting out the large
numbers of the calendar and pasting them
correctly together in the square upon the
board, corresponding to the square in the
table given in the book,
A great deal of it will be learned while
it Is being made, and may be kept in
sight, hung in ones room. The table
would be as follows:

Introduced by ~. u. II.
The same young man who chooses his
boutonniere with taste has gone over en-
Enthusiastically TO the London fashion, ema-
mating from the satellites that reVolve
around His Royal Hghness Albert Ed
ward, of wearing with evening dress silk
hose of the richest and most royal purple
hue. To give this SNOWY, dainty footdress
It's due IL must be worn with the very low
cut black patent leather dancing pump
that is an invariable feature of every
Brhsher's wardrobe. Now American
men prefer vanished leather shoe of
delicate and graceful make with evening
dress, so 1t remains yet to be seen whether
the purple silk hose will or will not bring
them to the luxurious pump that Is, of
course, the only shoe that gives the hand
some stockings q fair chance
Now that we linger moment about the
question of foot dressing 1t is apropoe TO
mention that through March and April
when the weather Is never of the same
mind for two consecutive hours, men will
not wear patent leather shoes for calling
for one shower and few dashes of mud
entirely destroy the beauty of the leath-
ers surface and beyond reparation. On the
other hand, enameled skin bears up nobly
under trial by mud and moisture, and is
far more in keeping with afternoon
dress than the best polished calf
or goat Rounded toes and broadly ex-
tensiye soles continue to be the shape
in countenance and the brown shoe fol-
lows the lead set by its black brother.
Chains and sticks.
1t was Lord Beaconsfeld. who. In his
fiippent youth, changed his walking stick
three times a day and collected canes
as some women horde teapots. Nova
days the fashionable young man initiates

of weighty dark wood in the morning, a
straight shaft capped with gold, and in
the afternoon an exceedingly light weight
| crook -necked toy of pale tan tinted wood,

Besides the collecting and constant shift

| pocket A wee gold pipe, silver broom,

A Sober View.

Berli1. BY Cable.-More sober views
about China now prevail here, owing,
doubtless, to the fact that Count Won
Bulow is known to entertain reason
able ideas about Germany's tangible
interests therein, and that his infu-
ence, as Imperial Chancellor, upon the
impetuous Emperor, and especially in
foreign affairs, is decidedly greater
than Prince Hohenloes. 1t is now
generally believed here that the Chi
nese muddle will slowly but surely
unravel itself and lead to a satisfac-
tory issue without necessitaling any
further large amount OF actual hos
tilities, or an elaborate strategic cam
paiin. All the utterances Of the semi
official press this week show this be-
lief Crly the military party is dis
satisfied with this view. Douts are
still entertained here though regard
ing the value of the credentials Of Ii
Hung Chang and Prince Ching, and
their ability to enforce the tens OF
any agreement reached. The alleged
latest edicts OF Emperor Kwang Su
are also regarded here with suspicion
and even the possibility that Ii Hung
Chang himself is their author or in
stigator, to facilitate the negotiator's
task, is considered.

A department store development in
st. Louis is the addition to the many
features of a branch postofice. Such
Offices are to be established in six
stores, not for the special benefit Of
the stores, but for the convenience Of
their patrons, especially the women,
who will then be able to do their pos
tai business as part Of their shopping.
The branch Offices will have money or
der and registration departments, and
women who now have difficulty in es-
tablishing their identity at the money
order department in the central post
Office can be vouched for by their ac-
quaintances in the store.

It is surprising to find the number of
nuns figuring upon the life insurance
companies lists nowadays. Nearly
all the sisters belonging to religious
orders in this part of the country have
their lives insured for a greater or less
amount-commonly greater. The OBJ
iect is, of course, not personal benefit
to themselves, nor to their families,
from which they have been separated.
At the death of the nun, all the accu-
mulated money goes to the church or
to that particular branch of its work
with whicl she was identified. The
yearly premiums are saved by the nun
out of her slender savings and such
aims IS may be given her for the pur-
pose from time to time.

A new piece Of household furniture
is the family weighing-machine. Some
are made in the form of graceful
chairs, upholstered in blue or white
leather to match the bathroom decor
ations, and some are artistic studies
in walnut and tapestry for the orna-
mentation of the hallway, the machin-
cry being concealed as far as possible
or made highly ornamental. The rea-
son for the introduction of the ma
chire is the new theory that it is flesh
that tells whether one is we'll or Ill
more truthfully even than color or ap-
petite or ill feelings. Mothers are in
structed to put their children on the
scales every morning, keep close rec
ord of the fluctuations. and once in
three weeks turn the tables of weights
over to the family doctor, who will
draw inferences therefrom.

The President Sets Apart November
10th In Usual Proclamation.


Washington, D. c., special.-The
State Department has issued the fol-
lowing:
BY the President Of the United States
of America.
PROCLAMATION.
1t has pleased the Almighty God TO
bring our nation in safety and honor
through another year. The works OF
religion and charity have everywhere
been manifest. Our country through
ell it's extent has been blessed with
abundant harvests. Labor and the
great industries Of the people have
prospered beyond all precedents Our
commerce has spread over the world.
Our power and influences in the cause
Of freedom and enlightenment have ex-
tended over distant seas and lands. The
lives Of our official representatives and
cnany of our people in China have been
uaryelously preserved. We have been
generally exempt from pestilenoe and
other great calamities, and even the
tragic visitation which overwhelmed
the city Of Galveston made evident the
continents of sympathy and Christian
charity by virtue of which we are one
united people.
Now, therefore, I, William McKin-
ley, President of the United States, do
hereby appoint and set apart Thurs
day, the 29th Of November next, to be
observed by all the people of the United
States, at home or abroad. as day OF
Thanksgiving and praise to Him who
holds the nations in the hollow Of His
hand.
l recommend that they gather in
their several places of worship and de-
voutly give Him thanks for the pros
perity wherewith He has endowed US,
for seed time and harvest, for the val
or, devotion and humanity of our ar
mics and navies and for all His bene-
fits to US as individuals and as na-
tion; and that they numbly pray for
the continuance of His divine favor,
for concord and amity with other ma
tions, and for righteousness and peace
in all our ways.
In witness 1 have hereunto set my
hand and caused the seal Of the United
States to he affixed.
Done at the city of Washington this
29th day of October, in the year Of Our
Lord, one thousand nine hundred, and
of the independence Of the United
States, the one hundred and twenty
fifth.
(Signed.) WILLIAM MCKINLEY.
