Most things in the nature OF very
new inventions and warlike appliances
become public property sooner or
later, for scientific minds work com
monty in the same direction, and, as
we have often seen, great discoveries
are made in many different places at
much the same time. Of course, an
expert may come upon the fringe OF
something he has long suspected but
could not quite evolve, and then gain
his last inspiration by some happy
chance. Some time back an eminent
inventor and manufacturer of explo-
siyes verified the constitution of mel

How to Obtain the Best Effects of
Delicious Extracts.
From the Chicago Chronicle.
Few people know how to use perfumes, al
though everybody thinks it is a very simple
matter. The delicate extracts most favored
by the majority should never be used by
tipping up the bottle and soaking a small
part of a garment. 1t must be sprayed
through very fine atomizer and even then
used sparingly.

longings of a luxurious woman, and have
developed from the original small scented
bag to generous proportions. In Paris it

Fall Models in WOmen's Headgear.
From the Millinery Trade Review.


The new models are none of them of pan
cake form, nor are the toques turbans,
with the crown as low as the brim On
the contrary, both have decided crowns,
though often rather low, and never above
the medium. For velvet hats, and also for
those made of plateaux of felt, the full
Tam O'Shanter or beret crown is revived,
and promises to take the lead. Blocked
felts have crowns of medium height, widen
ing out from the base and fiat at the top
or else domed.
The quite fiat brim is eschewed Many
have the brim turned UP, or, rather, lifted
at the side; the shape is set sideways on
the head and kept In this position by a
wire support, existing only on the left side.
Others, both small hats and toques, Gov
cred with material. have fiat brims, to
which a certain thickness is given by the
velvet or what not being gathered or laid
on fiat, and the under and upper strata
turned in at the edge, so as to form a

THE DAINTY MUSLIN WRAPPER.
The Most Delightful Garment for the
Heated Term.

From the st Louis Republic.
The most delightful garment in really
hot weather Is a dainty wrapper or tea
gown of fancy printed muslin. and these
serh-transparent materials are now made
in such lovely designs and colorings Al
such very moderate prices that with a lit
tie industry and ingenuity a really artistic
garment can be made at home at small
cost.
Muslns with striped or sprigged patterns
can be bought for 121s cents at the sales
or even less in some cases, and, as they
generally measure thirty inches wide, nint
or ten yards are sufficient for a gown for q
woman of average height, If it is to bt
trimmed with lace, but yard or two more
must be allowed If any frills are needed.

gate to 1T. The operators, willing, as 1t
has been proved, to go to great ex-
stremes in meeting these demands, have
swept all complaints about wages off
the field by raising them to a point they
had never touched before Arbitration
was, in many cases, agreed to- But,
after the dispute has reached this stage,
the labor leaders say that the question
is neither upon wages nor upon arbitra-
ton. but that 1t is on the recognition of
the union. They demand that every
miner in the Pennsylvania coal fields
shall surrender to a central body of di-
rectors. or labor trust. the control of his
own labor. to he had and held by them
according to their judgment when to
turn 1T into the mines or when to take
it out.
Terrorism is in the air. Thousands of
men. who evidently prefer to carry their
citizens' sovereignty under their hats.
since, they do not join the trust, have
stopped mining until their confidence in
their own liberty to work without per-
|sonal injury is restored to them.
The bottommost issue. therefore, is
NOW the upperlnost. The miners right
to pool themselves and the operators
fright to employ whomsoever they wish
are equal. and there being nowhere any
opposition to the miners program, there
must be nowhere opposition to the pro-
