There is such vast amount of veil

know what to keep constantly in stock

Fancy meshes are very popular, more
particularly the new patterns in black

the most fashionable quarters, but in
large cities the styles above referred

There are some new veilings being

UNITED STATES AND TURKEY
Beck on an Indemnity
Claim.

Several years ago, when Turkish
mobs were numbering Armenians in
Asia Minor, they looted and burned
the buildings of Euphrates college at
Harpoot. There was no one to take
up the cause of the Armenians; but
Euphrates college was an American
institution, established by American
money and carried on by American
missionaries, says Youths Compan-
ion..
The destruction of this property
and of similar property at Marash be-
came the basis for claim for indemn-
ity which the government of the Unit
ed States Immediately brought
against Turkey, and has been pressing
at intervals ever since. It was long
time before the sultan was induced to
admit responsibility, and longer
time before he was brought to the
point of promising payment. But in
the Turkish scheme of affairs, promise
and performance are often long way
apart.
A few weeks ago the battleship Ken
lucky dropped anchor off Smyrna, and
her commander went to CONSTANT
nople to visit the American charge
d'afaires. While he was there the
long standing account was settled;
not directly, but under cover of con-
tract for building cruiser in the
United States, the missionary claims
being figured into the contract price.
h
arose. The Turkish government re-
fused to give its exequatur, or official
recognition, to DR.. Norton, whom the
United States had appointed consul at
Harpoot. If it had objected to him as
persona non grata, its objection must
have sufficed, and new consul would
have been designated; but it's objcc-
ton was to recognizing any consul
there. Turkey is bound by treaty to
allow American consulates to be es-
tablished wherever commerce re-
quires them, but it holds that there is
no commerce at Harpoot. It is also
bound by treaty to give the United
States the same treatment as the
'smost favored nation;" and as it has
recognized a British consul at Har-
poot, the American claim for consul
there rests both on treaty and prece-
dent.
Turkey pursued the same course
when the United States commissioned
a consul at Erzeroum, another mis-
sionary and educational center in
Asia Minor, where large numbers of
Armepians were massacred. But the
consul went to Erzeroum notwith-
standing, and DIR. Norton has gone to
Harpoot.

GUARDING AGAINST MOTHS.
Elective Method. Of Protecting Furs
and Woelens Daring the
Sumxner Season.

To clean furs there are two practical
and effective methods. One is by rub
bling into the fur mahogany sawdust
that has been first wet in benzine or
gasoline; the other is by rubbing with
hot sand. By means of either fur may
be perfectly cleaned. The sawdust
used by furriers is what is called
"'veneering sawdust;" that is, it is
from cutting across the grain, and is
short and sand-like. This sawdust
will not stick to fur like the long par
ticles from cutting wood with the
grain. 1t can be procured at hard
lumber sawmills, or from furriers.
The sand used is that clean yellow
kind, free from dust, as sea or lake
shore sand, or such as is sometimes
taken from sand hills. It should be
made hot in a stove oven to the degree
that it can be borne by the hand
greater heat than that endangering
the fur. After cleaning, furs should,
of course, be beaten with rattan
beater) and aired-not summed for
fear of fading, says Ella Morris
Kretschmar, in Woman's Home Com
panion.
AS for wool garments, they should
be carefully looked over first, and all
that need cleaning be cleaned by a
professional cleaner or by home meas
ures. 1t is mistake to put things
away ''to be cleaned in the fall; it is
simply an invitation to moths. Before
cleaning wool garments should be we'll
beaten, aired and summed.

VALUABLE HISTORIC RELIC.
washlngton's SwArd to Ne Sold ~
Descendant for the sake ol .
Pretty baby.

Miss Virginia. Lewis, who has at last
consented to sell the sword of Wash.
ington, for which she once refused
$4,000, was turned from her desire to
keep it by the prattlings of baby, and
that baby is certainly entitled to tho
money, il blood counts for anything.
Mrs. Grace Lee Lewis Mann is the
mother of the baby, and the niece of
Miss Lewis, who set out for Baltimore
a little while ago to sell the sword.
Miss Lewis has already negotiated by
mail and in person with the Metrcpol-
itan museum of New York, but the
museum disagrees with her in mat.
ter Of $4,000. She wants 100000 for
the heirloom, and its offer has not yet
gone above the half of that price, says
the Cincinnati Enquirer.
It certainly has accomplished about
enough for one sword already. It tat
tended to the settling of some French
men and some Indians in very neat
manner, and later on it showed the
British trick or two. It might have

think, but no. It 10 to bring q neat

people. She is to join the Society Of
Colonial Danes. A lot Of people
would give their eyes to be able to
squeeze into the Danes by even ono

quished member. Look at the names
on Mrs. Mann's application:
On the paternal side she claims lin.
cal descent from Hon. John Lewis,
Hon. Augustine Darner, Col. Lawrence
Washington, Col. Augustine Washing
ton, Col. Fielding Lewis. On the ma
ternal side she claims lineal descent
from Gov. Samuel Ogle, Gov. Benjamin
Tasker, William Bladen, Col. John
Tayloe, Hon. Henry Corbin.
Any one of these ancestors would
entitle her to become member Of the
Colonial Danes. All of them together
make her tenfold member, and that
is more than enough for one 17-year-
old woman. But she has the further
audacity to have George Washington

This comes through the marriage Of
Col. Fielding Lewis and Elizabeth

s.DiLK!" CRIED THE WOMAN.


A snllow, emac;ated young man
who looked as if he had just got up
from q severe fit of illness boarded
q Madison avenue car in Forty-second
street the other afternoon and sat
down opposite pretty girl. He car
ried q bag that seemed big load
for him and he apparently didn't mo-
tice the girl until he had leaned back
in his seat after arranging the bag
under his legs, says the New York
Sun.
Then swiftly he sat upright again
and looked little alarmed, like a man
who is not sure of himself after the
visions of fever. In moment, how
ever, the alarm was gone and he
stared at her in way that reminded
you of thirsty man drinking water.
The girl couldn't help but feel his
gaze and turned her eyes to him cold
" and then looked coldly away. A
| mere ghost of color showed in the
young mans cheek. Then he smiled
foolishly and continued to stare at the
young woman with so much fervor
that she finally turned her face toward
him again with Q little airt of annoy
ance.
The young man, apparently, was
quite shameless. He met her eyes
squarely. She lowered them and be-
gan to look him over with disdain. He
laughed again, foolishly. Nearby
passengers showed that they shared
the young woman's indignation by
this time, but he was such q scarecrow
of a man that their wonder was per-
haps stronger than their anger.
The young woman's eyes travelled
witheringly from his head to his feet
and then started on the return jour-
ney. There is no treatment more
blighting to a masher than this. The
scarecrow fidgeted under the gaze and
laid his hands nervously on his knees.
On one of the fingers of the left hand
was curiously chased gold ring. 1t
was SO loose that it looked as if it
would surely fall off were the young
man to hold his fingers downward.
The ring caught the girls eyes in pass
ing, and the eyes widened suddenly,
then flashed from the ring to the
young mans face and back again.
The scarecrow smiled once more,
foolishly, but there was curious mist
in his eyes. The pretty girl gazed
for an instant into his face exactly
as he had been gazing at her.
"Dick!" said the pretty girl.
It would take too many columns to
tell all she said in the word, but be-
fore it was quite out she was sitting
beside him and had the hand with the
ring on it. The rest Of the passengers
didn't seem to count.

HOUSEHOLD BITS.
A Daaget OF Suggestions Regarding
Matters In the Culinary
Department..

Lettuce is another vegetable that
should find IN honored place in every
garden. however small. 1t grows rap
idly, and with rich soil and free
supply of water is sure to reward the
efforts Of the veriest tyro at garden
ing. If o fresh row is planted every
two or three weeks one may be sure
Of this pleasant salad all through the

TALLY shaded place is best. There is
no vegetable tid-bit so highly es-
teemed by rabbits, hares, chickens,
ducks and Gagged birds as lettuce, and
many poultry ra.sers grow large
quantities for this especial purpose,
says the Washington Star.
While the majority of people pre-
fer their lettuce served with mayon-
naise or French dressing, there are
still many who cling to the old-time
salt, vinegar and sugar. Others de-
clare that for their individual taste
lettuce with cream leaves nothing
further to be desired. To make the
cream dressing mix with one cupful
OF sour cream two tablespoonfuls Of
sugar, one tablespoonful of vinegar, .
tablespoonful of melted butter, meas
ured after it is melted, and q half
teaspoonful of salt. Pour over the
lettuce and serve Immediately.
Still another variation in lettuce
dressing is made with eggs. Beat two
eggs until light. Add two table,
spoonfuls melted butter, measured
after melting, two tablespoonfuls of
vinegar, two or three tablespoonfuls
of sugar and half teaspoonful Of
salt.
While lettuce cannot be improved
upon served just as nature has given
it to us, the stock cabbage lettuce
that is we'll headed is delicate and
tasty when cooked. To prepare it,
tie bit Of coarse netting or cheese
cloth about the head, to keep it from
falling apart. Put pint of sailed
soup stock in covered dripping pan,
lay in the lettuce and let it simmer
for half an hour. Lift out the let
tuce, unbind and lay in a hot-covered
dish while you prepare the sauce.
| Add little more stock, if necessary,
and thicken with Drowned -four and
butter. Season with salt and pepper
and strain over the lettuce.
The Germans make lettuce fritters,
and pronounce them good. Like
elder-favored and ge-blossom
fritters, however, it seems IN ex.
penditure of energy and sentiment
| without commensurate results. In
making these fritters, the lettuce is
first boiled, then drained, chopped,
cooled and added to ordinary fritter
batter.
When change in the garnishing

tuce leaves with scissors in thin
strips about the width of blade OF

In making birds nest salad, form
the little speckled eggs of cream

spatules and then sprinkled with fine
chopped parsley. At the last mo-
ment pour over each nest with its
