Indian Rugs Need Disinfection.


A woman who knows the West and
it's Indians gives a word of caution to
those who are collecting Indian bas-
kets and rugs. Any one, she says, who
has ever been among the Indians real
ICES the unsanitary conditions prevail
ing in their wick-i-ups or hogans. Filth
and disease Of all sorts are much more
apt to be the rule than the exception.
Among the aborigines Of the Southwest st
particularly water is almost an un.
known quantity. They have to de-
pend upon the irrigation bitches
through their reservations, and 1.-TWO
hours run" of water every eight or ten
days with no vessels to conserve the
precious fluid for use in the meantime,
gives small leeway for water to be
used for cleansing purposes. The beau
tlful Pinea and Apache baskets viii all
bear good scrubbing with some dis.
infectant in the water. The Navajo
rugs, If new, may be dislnfected with
sulphur or formaldehyde-bu II they
show signs of any wear--wash thor.
oughly. The native wool blankets col.
Ored with vegetable dyes are improved,
not injured, by washing. Those dyed
with mineral dyes are apt to shrink
and fade. The Navajo rugs honestly
made are not only practically lnde-
structible, but rarely beautiful in de.
sign and colorlng.--New York CONNER.

Baths For Palms.

"Those whose palms persist in hav-
ing yellow and brown tips on their
fronds should try the eXpedient of CIV
ing them a daily and thorough BATH"
says a woman who has always been
most successful with her winter palms.
"A sponge dipped in warm water and
rlnsed as often as it becomes dusty
should be used to cleanse every crevice
and both the under and upper side Of
the leaves, as otherwise the plant can
not breathe, and breathing is as essen,
tial for plants as for people. Then in.
stead Of pouring water on the top Of
the earth set the pot, If not too large to
handle in a bucket or the bathtub over
night, two or three times a week. In
either case the water should not he
above the level of the pot, so that the
plant may drink the moisture up and
the porous earthenware vessel become
thoroughly saturated. In this way no
earth or sustenance is washed from the
roots. New York Tribune.

Squirrel SKIN is a End.

Gray squirrel has become fad OF
the season. 1t is to be found in the
trimming of hats, the decoration of
gowns and as collars. One fancy neck
piece in squirrel skin is large fiat col
lar falling over the shoulders with
stole ends which reach almost to the
feet. Another particularly charming
design which is shown by one Of the
best furriers. is fat collar with stole
ends. These are bound, however. about
four or five inches back, with loosely
drawn silk cord, from which hang
fluffy balls of fur. Squirrel skin ap-
pears in entire jackets and in large fiat
muffs to match any Of the above gar
ments.
For dresses, one Of the most satisfac.
tory colors in combination with tile

color, is somewhat trying to most COM

Lavender-scented sheers.

Lavender-scented sheets are the de-
light of dainty housewives, and it Is
claimed that they induce sweet slum-
bers. The odor is exceedingly fresh,
clean and wholesome, and old-fash-
ioned housewives always scented theiI
linen and napery with sprigs Of the
sweet flower.
Italian orris root Is sometimes sub
stituted for the lavender if the latter
cannot be procured, but there is no rea
son why the farmers wife or any one
who has plot Of ground large enough

lot raise quantities of lavender and
keep the linens deliciously fragrant.

Governor Jelks yesterday promised the mercial and Industrial Association his hearty cooperation in having an Ala bama exhibit at the Louisiana Purchase Exposition to be held in St. Louis.
 Secretary J. B. Gibson of the Commer- cial Club returned last night from Mont gomery well pleased with the reception given the committee and speaking in high terms of the cordial reception rendered them by the Governor.
 The proposition laid before the Cover nor was for a commission, composed of two men from each of the nine Congress sional districts and four from the state at large, to be appointed to take the matter in hand The Governor accepted the suggestion and will name the commission at once.
 He also promised the committee finan- cial support as far as was in his power. The understanding is that he will place from $100O0 to $15.0O0 taken from the funds of the agricultural department in the hands of the commission and then ask a special appropriation from the next Legislature to cover that amount.
 Part of the money will be needed, how ever, before the Legislature meets in or der that the agricultural exhibit may be gotten up next summer and fall when the crops are at their best. For this the Governor will probably authorize the use of about $5000 at once. the rest to be used when necessary.
