CUFFS FROM SHIRTS TAIL.
A Moved Mopcy-SnVinR Expcdicnt nit
Upon by Chicago Gents
Eurnishers.

II Is no longer necessary for men TO
sacrifice their shirts simply because
the cuffs happen to give way under the
terrific strain Of the laundrymans in
suitable machines. lIabcrdashcrs who
are up to date and who keep abreast
OF conditions have seen that a. time
would come when the usefulness Of
cOlorcd shirts with attached cuffs
would be materially curtailed unless
they hit upon scheme by which the
life Of the cuffs could be prolonged to
keep pace with the rest of the shirt
And after some figuring they have
discovered this scheme, reports the
Chicago Tribune.
Any man can have new cuffs on his
old shirt II he Is willing TO sacrifice a
strip Of goods which can be handily
taken from the tail The progressive
haberdasher simply gets busy with his
scissors slices of section Of that
portion of the shirt hidden from view,
works the material into new cuffs, and
there you are. new shirt so far as
appearances go and the world Is none
the wiser.
1t has long been a complaint with
men who prefer shirts with cuffs at
tochcd that this style IS expensive be-
cause the cuffs under the strain Of
constant visits 10 the laundry, break
and fringe AT the edges, making It
necessary 30 throw the garment away
before it Is half worn out, The dis
covery Of the hahcrdasher that the
tail can easily be sacrificed for cuffs
has served 10 materially prolong the
life OF the shirt and makes It. possible
FOR the wcarer TO practice judicious
| economy.
In fact it Is surprising what a man
can do with his old clothes by way OF
! reiuvcnating them and making them
4 look Ike new. The professional clean.

ALWAYS SOMETHING LEARN
Man Who Lived 10 the Age of 20
Before Tie Learned to BLOW
His Nose.

President Eliot was arguing in favor
of education, one night recently, says
the Boston Journal He said that he
was learning something every day by
being shown how"
He illustrated his point by describing
the training of medical students and
concluded by telling of an old friend
Of his who had suddenly become deaf
in one ear.
'"Ilow did this happen?" | asked him.
Well, l was blowing my nose the
other day, when felt something snap
in my ear, followed by an aching and
dullness.
when the doctor came her+aid the
drum had split and asked how | did it.
"I only blew my nose l told the
doctor.
Well, had you opened your mouth
when you blew your nose you would not
now have a damaged ear drum was the
medico's reply.
You see, my friend had lived 20 years
and had never been shown how to blow
his nose" concluded President Eliot.
The application was appreciated and
greeted with great burst of laughter.

SYSTEM IN HOUSEWORK.
Too Much should Not he Crowded
Into One Day by Lnck OF
Planning.

The good housewife makes plans
over night for the work which must
be done the following day. Probably
a considerable share Of it falls to a
special day in each week, but there
will be a number Of things to do which
are out of the regular routine, and Tor
these she must plan so that she will
not have them ali crowding upon her
at once and either being neglected
because they are so many or taken in
hand and carried through at the cost
Of health and spirits, says the Wash
ington Star.
4 desire for economy sometimes viii
incite a woman TO most foolish eN-
penditure Of energy. which is really
very bad kind Of extravaganza. For
instance, she has been particularly
busy all day and is feeling tired, when
in comes neighbor who tells her OF
the great flannel sale. In n moment
she thinks Of little Popsey's flannel
petticoats-thc child really must have
new ones-and off she PUSHES to Sc
cure the material and returns, de-
lighted to have got it at few pennies
under the usual price. As a matter
Of fact, that flannel was a dear pur-
chase. It was like the proyerbial
straw which broke the camePs back,
for the next day the housewife is eth
or moping about, feeling incapable OF
work or she is Frustrated with Sc
we're headache Planning would save
this kind Of thing and prevent the
crowding into one day the work Of
two.
In planning and estimating a days
work some allowance should always
be made for interruptions and for the
work taking longer than was antici-
pated With too many "irons in the
fire" such hindrances as a visitor or
having to console a crying child in
some little trouble make it difficult
TO keep that calm, sweet temper which
is necessary to the woman who is not
merely the handspring Of the machin-
cry Of the household, but its good an
rel, who makes it home indeed TO all
who dwell there.

MARTINIQUE'S FUTURE.
specuIations In France ms I" """'
VIII become OF the Devastated
Island.

The Temps discusses the future OF
the island of Martinique. Its eyacu-
alton is spoken of, and it examines
| the question whether the island IS
ruined, and its future irremediaoly
compromised, says the Paris Iele-
gram. Only a tenth Of the island
has been devastated. If the town OF
St. Pierre was not included In the
destroyed portion the damage would
be merely material and Of little I'M
portance. Unfortunately thousands
Of human lives have been lost, and
the moral disaster is without rem
edy. The material losses, st. Pierre
included, the Temps estimates at
hundred millions of francs. a part
of this sum can, this Eemi-othcial or
gan thinks, be rccuperated by the
subscriptions raised, by the relief
which parliament VIII certainly vote,
and by subsidies which the metro
politan government could annually
accord the colony. Thanks TO TINS
momcntary help, the effects OF the
disaster may be diminished, and tho
Temps believes that before long the
situation may be regarded as repair
able, especially as the economic re-
sources Of the island have not been
touched.
Sugar growing and refining cDnsti-
tuted at least S. per cent. of the OK
ports of Martinique, and 50 per cent.
Of the plantations and factories are
intact. The cocoa plantations in the
north of the island have certainly
disappeared, but the majority Of the
coffee plantations are uninjured.
Though considerable quantities Of
Martinique coffee are placed on the
market, this journal says that much
of it came from Guatemala, the YES
sells conveying it to Europe merely
touching a port Of Martinique in or
der TO obtain certificate of origin.
The chief elements OF prosperity in
an agricultural island like Martin
iquc, says the Temps, are good
harbOr and solid elements of credit.
The natural harbor Of St. Pierre has,
perhaps, become impracticable, but
that Of Fort de France, which offered
much greater facilities, remains. AS
to the banks the Temps says the
situation Of the Bank Of Martinique
is excellent. Exchange is at par, and
the bank will come out of the dis
aster without loss, the profits de-
rived from burned bank notes being
sufficient 10 compensate it. After
such catastrophe the Temps con
cludcs that the economic situation OF
the island is as satisfactory as car
be expected. It's future in no way
appears mcnaced, and the idea Of
abandoning the colony, says the
scmi-oilicial organ, should be ener-
gctically denounced.
The national committee for the re-
lief OF the sufferers by the Martin
! ique catastrophe has received sub
! scriptions amounting to IA total Of
! 2,053,0l2 francs. In addition TO the
unlimited credit IL has opened to the
| colonial department for the uprchasc
of provisions, the committee has sent
100, 900 francs to Fort de France, so
| 900 francs to Guadcloupe, 10000
| francs TO Guiana, and 10000 francs to
! Trinidad, TO be distributed among
! the inhabitants of Martinique, or ref
ugccs from that island, in the neigh
boring colonies
