FALL FASHION NOTES,
Points to BE Observed When Making
Up the New Costumes for
the Season.

Brown, it is said. is to be the leading
color this year for fall and winter cos
tunes, says the Detroit Free Press.
The new fad is for light gray gloves,
the color ranging from pearly gray to
dark serviceable color for street wear
Sleeves promise to be larger. They
do not fit the arm with such eXactness
as heretofore. Though the under
sleeve came in with such rush that it
promised to be too popular to last it
reappears in the autumnal modes.
Shirt waists to replace the cotton
ones in cooler days are made of fine
French flannel, cashmere, India twill
and French serge. Those of polka
dotted mohair and flannel are pa - GU
larly stylish. The fronts are both plain
and plated, and great deal of braid
in two widths will be used on them.
Street gowns are worn to just es-
cape the pavement sufficiently short
to be convenient-but to require little
care in lifting them, thus enabling the
wearer to reveal her lace trimmed
white skirts or her much beruff1ed silk
ones. On the other hand, dresses in
tended for ceremonious wear are longer
than ever.

CLEVER MINING MAIDS.
Then Became Gold Seekers and
Now Are Capitalists.

Two San Francisco girls, who went
to the K!ondike two years ago, have
returned to their native city with a bag
of gold and are preparing to make a
European voyage.
Misses Dottie and Oracle Browning,
after being graduated from the public
schools, studied for the stage. Both
were possessed of fine voices, and grand
opera was the goal of their ambition.
Oracle Browning secured a position
with the Bostonians, but just after
the contract a death occurred in the
family. and she gave up the position.

together in vaudeville, touring eastern
circuits under different managers.

HAPPY LITTLE BABIES.
How Children Are Cared For in a
New York Institution Which In
a Model of Its Kind.

One of the prettiest and most COM
forting sights in New York city dur
ing the hot weather is to be seen in
the Mothers and Babies hospital, at
Lexington avenue and Fifty-second
street, where from 30 to IS little ba-
bies are being taken care of accord
ing to the Golden Rule. At any rate,
whether they would put it that way
at the hospital or not, it seems to
visitor that do unto a baby as you
would be done by" is the true secret
of their success.
Mrs. Lucy Robinson, the head nurse
of the hospital, says there are just
three important points in the care of
the baby-food, dress and handling.
In the first place, if the baby is
being fed from a bottle, the milk
given it should always be pasteurized
and that word means, as we have
explained before, that the milk should
be put through purifying process
which was originated by a man named
Pasteur. Every two hours between
three in the morning and nine at
night the baby should have its milk,
but during the night it should have
nothing except a drink of cold water.
now and then. She says few people
seem to realize that babies get thirs-
ty, just like anyone else, and that,
unless they have plenty of water,
they are sure to be feverish and fret
full. 1t must be water that has been
boiled, though, and the bottles that
hold the baby's milk must be boiled,
too, after each usng, so that any pos
sible germ of disease will be de-
stroyed. Then the little ones mouth
should be washed out with water that
has boracic acid in it, every two
hours; there must be two baths a day
in luke warm water, and the baby
must not founder about nor get
frightened, but be carefully held in
the water a few moments and then
wrapped in a soft, fleecy blanket and
patted-not rubbed-until the blanket
has taken up all the moisture. Next,
nice powdering, all over, with corn
starch, and then some comfortable,
plain garments put on over the feet
never over the head to bother baby
and get it to crying. No stiffly

THREE VEGETABLE DISHES.
When other Good Dishes
Grow Common.

At this time of the year there are
numbered among the vegetables of the
season three which are Old and tried
favorites of the American household
tomatoes, corn and new" potatoes. 1t
will not be amiss, therefore, to give re
cipes forserving these vegetables which
will be an agreeable departure from
the custom so prevalent in many houses
of always serving the corn ION the
cob" stewing the tomatoes and boiling
or roasting the potatoes, says the New
York Tribune.
A corn pudding" is delicious dish,
which should be more popular than it
is. 1t has a double attraction for those
housekeepers who have prejudice
against serving corn on the cob. Take
II ears of corn that are young and
milky, and with a sharp knife slice off
the edges of the kernels. Then, with
duller knife, scrape off the soft, milky
pulp, leaving the shell of the kernel
clinging to the cob. Pour into deep
earthenware dish, which has been pre-
viously buttered, five cups of rich milk,
teaspoonful of salt and four scant
tablespoonfuls of sugar. Stir in the
corn, bake the pudding for a couple Of
hours in moderate oven and serve it
hot. Corn pudding" is sometimes
made with the addition of eggs. In
that case less milk is used. The recipe
given here produces the best results,
however, just as a rice pudding made
without eggs is superior to one made
with eggs.
stuffed tomatoes" are easily made.
Select eight large. smooth, firm toma-
toes. Cut thin slice from the stem
end of each, and with spoon scoop out
the juice and pulp. Put tablespoon
full of butter in a frying pan over the
fire, and when melted add a scant table
spoonful of flour. Stir quickly, add
half a cup of stock, and as soon as it
boils up add half a cup of finely chopped
veal (salt and pepper to taste), half a
cup of dried breadcrumbs and tea
spoonful of grated onion. Remove from
the fire Immediately and add the pulp
and juice of the tomatoes. Fill the to-

them slowly for 90 or 80 minutes. Dec
crate the dish with parsley, and serve
hot. The clever housewife will be able
todevise many different kinds of ''stuf-
fling" which will lend a pleasant va
riety to this dish.
Stuffed potatoes" are very easily
prepared, and are delicious. Select a
dozen new potatoes of about the same
size and bake them in hot oven until
soft and mealy. Cut off one end and
scoop out the contents. Mash the con-
tents thoroughly, season it with salt
and pepper, and add little boiling
milk and little butter. Beat until
light and put back in the potato jack
cts. Brush with butter the creamy puff
of potato showing at the opening, and
return to the oven to brown.

Nice Wash for Dry Hair.

For hair that is dry an oily wash
should be used about once a week OF
oftener. 1t should be rubbed into
the scalp with piece of flannel, a
superfuity of oil being avoided and
only sufficient used to moisten, not
drown, the roots of the hair. The
application of the oil must be accom-.
panied by friction with the flannel.
1t is mistake to suppose that dry
hair will be really benefited by oil
being poured on to it and brushed
through it merely. To do permanent
good, it is necessary that the fatty
preparation should be rubbed into
the skin of the head: a very small
quantity will suffice to be of bene.

hair should be washed with an egg

starched embroidery, no thick seams
to cut the soft flesh, no shoes, no
stockings on the little chubby feet;
the little colties go bare, bare, bare"
and kick to their hearts content.
Mrs. Robinson says, too, that chill
dren have been deformed and crippled
for life by being held in wrong posi-
tions when they were little. The
baby's head must never hang down,
nor must the weight of the body be
allowed to come upon the delicate
muscles of the stomach and bowels.
The little head and back must be sup
ported, and the hips should rest firm
ly in nurses hand. 1t is a good plan,
however, to consult the baby's own
taste in this matter of position. The
little girl in our picture, for instance,
is never more happy than when laid
over her nurses shoulder and held
there with strong gentle hands. But
another baby might not agree with
her at all.
A small Chicago maiden, who visited
the Mothers and Babies hospital in
New York, this summer, has come
back to her family of dolls with new
ideas. She allows no one to hold
them except in proper fashion; she
puts on their clothes over their feet
makes a pretense of bathing them
twice daily, and talks great deal
about pasteurizing milk and boiled
water. 1t sounds amusing, now, but,
after all, perhaps some warm day, a
long time from now, little jolly,
growing baby will lie and wave his
dimpled feet in comfort and joy all
because his mamma went to visit that
hospital when she was a little girl
and practiced on her dolls the good
things she learned there, so that she
never forgot them.-Chicago Little
Chronicle.

UNCLE SAM WANTS
MOROCCO TO SETTLE.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-The state de-
partment today sent instructions to
United States Consul Gummere, at Tan
gier, Morocco, to proceed to the capital
of that country as far as possible on
United States man-of-war, to present a
fresh claim of the United States for
indemnity on account of the murder OF
Marcus EZagui, a naturalized American
citizen, who was killed in June 1900 The
warship, which probably will be the
Kentucky, recalled from Smyrna for that
purpose, will convey the consul from
Tangier to Mazagan, which is the near
est port to Fez, the capital of Morocco.
The indemnity demanded in behalf of the
widow of Ezagui amounts to 5000, and
was based on the failure of the Moorish
government to punish the murderers.
The Moorish government declined the
first demand on the ground that Ezagui
by long residence in Morocco had be-
come a Moorish citizen under the terms
of the Madrid convention. The state
department, however, holds now that

LONDON, Dec. During a course of

great honor he felt at entertaining a
regiment whose services to the empire
were so great that they had been ac-
knowledge by the queens own lips, the
highest honor which could be bestowed
on returning troops"
Lieut.. Col. Buchan gracefully ac-
knowledged the heartiness of the re-

England.
The Canadians this afternoon visited
the Guild hall, where the lord mayor
again addressed them, thanking them in
the name of the ciezeps of London for
their sacrifices and the heroism they mad
shown on the battlefield.
Col. Otter, replying, said it was a proud
moment when the Canadians were given
the opportunity of testifying their loy-
atty and desire to serve the queen and
protect and uphold the honor of the
flag. The queen, he added must al
ways count on the loyalty of the Ca
nadiaps.
Lord Strathcona and Mount Royal fol-
lowed with a few graceful words Of
thanks for the reception accorded the
Canadians.
Mr. Henry Siegel, of New York sat
at the lord mayors right in the Guild
hail. He referred warmly to the close
ties between the United States and Gan7
ada, and to the sympathetic interest Of
the United States in the exploits of the
Canadians.
