New Trimmings for the Coming Season

Those who have been privileged to
see the preparations made for the COM
ing season in trimmings of all kinds
could not fail to be impressed by the
complete revolution that has taken
place since last year. The immense
variety and the perfection of the pat
terms, carried out minutely in a way
that would have been quite impossible
to compass unless we had had the aid
of machinery, are striking in the ex-
treme. Pretty well every kind of
beautiful lace, which has been SO la
boriously made by the needle and on
the pillow, has its representative now,
and the marked feature of the trim
ming is the use of muslin alone, and
blended with lace, most of it display
ing bold open hole patterns in Broderie
Anglaise. near akin to Madeira work.
Every sort of detachable trimming
ready for application onto the various
stuffs has been prepared
The erstwhile fashionable shade of
Paris ecru has been superseded by a
darker color with a tea tone in it,
which has no special name and is SIM
ply called ecru. insertions of all sorts
are well TO the fore; indeed, there is
q strong feeling for Irish lace. whether

Lack Of Time Cannot Withstand
Learnino,

What a business man needs, whose
early educational opportunities have been
limited. is not, therefore, the elements of
training and discipline. He most needs,
as rule, sound habits of thought and the
opportunity of forming acquaintance with
the best literature, the best history, the
best art, and the best knowledge of the
world in his own department. In order
to do this, he must, as a rule, in view
OF his preoccupatfOnS, depend mainly up
on himself. {1e cannot make use of the
skill and experience of other men. al
though more than one successful business
man has put himself under the tutelage
of a competent instructor late in life, for
the sake of remedying some defect in his
education, or OF acquiring some kind of
knowledge of which he has felt the need.
The chief obstacle in the way of self-ed-
ucation for most men of active business
life is lack of time, or, at least, the i'm
preston that there is a lack of time. AS
a matter of fact, men have, as a rule,
time for the things for which they really
care. If man has a passion for knOwl-
edge, in almost every case he will secure
it, no matter what the pressure of his
daily work may be. If a woman loves
beauty, she will find access to it, no mat
ter what the disadvantages of her situa-
ton may be. The heart comes to its own.
in the end. When We do not get the
things which we think we want, our fail
ure, as a rule, is due to the fact that we
are not willing to put forth the effort or
pay the price of work or sacrifice Most
men unconsciously waste enough time for
self-education. Many business men live
at a distance from their Offices; they
spend from one to two hours day in
going to their places of business from
their homes. and in returning to their
homes. When this time is given to walk
ing. nothing is to be said; for health de-
pends largely on exercise, and health is
primary object in all intelligent living.
But most men do not walk; they use con-
veyances of all kinds, and they have
from one to two hours, each day, of spare
time to fill. That time, as a rule, they
give to newspapers. No man in our age
can be intelligent who undervalues the
newspaper, which is the daily history of
our own time. So far as ii is a daily his
tory. the newspaper ought to be regularly
and intelligently read. But the newspa-
per is many things besides daily his
tory; it is a chronicle of all manner of
miscellaneous, personal. unusual, abnor-
NAL. and criminal events; it is chron :
icle of private affairs, of scandals, and
of crimes.-Hamilton Wright Mabie, in

JAPANESE PROVERBS.
Some of the Folk Saying of the Quaint
Empire.

Nothing will so surely touch the Jap
anese heart as the unexpected quotation
of one Of the old national proverbs which
were current coin IN the land before the
peoples of modern Europe had emerged
from their original barbarisms. These
old savings are perpetually In the mouths
of all classes, from the professor in his
lecture room to the child in the nursery.
And pretty game. in which the same
old proverbs are used, is one of the ia
vorite amusementS of the japanese chill
dren. 1t is played with pack OF cards
composed of pairs. one card haVlng
prOverb inscribed on it; and its fellow
card pictorial representation of that
proverb. After the cards have been
shuffied and dealt the proverbs are read
out in turn, and whoever believes himself
to have the corresponding picture calls
out If right he gets rid of his card.
The one who first gets rid of all his cards
wins the game, and the holder of the last
card loses it. They play this game with
wonderful animation and rapidity.
One would. perhaps. expect TO md the
proyerbiaI philosophy of an isolated peo-
pIe in the far east Enthusiastically diff
ferent from that which has sprung up in
more western countries. But, as a mat

PLAN TO END THE COAL STRIKE.
Detroit Business Men Decide to Call

National Convention.
Without a dissenting voice it was de
cided at a meeting held in the Detroit
Council chamber to call a national con
vention having as its aim the opening
of the mines throughout the anthracite
coal regions of Pennsylvania and West
Virginia. Strong resolutions were adopt
ed calling for the ending of the Goa
strike. 1t was the first practical step ir
what is confidently predicted will furnish
a solution of the difficulties at present
existing.
In addition to the adoption of the reso
lutions kilograms were sent to the Gov.
ernors of score of States asking their
to appoint delegates to the convention
which it is proposed to hold in Detroit
while similar action was taken In regard
to the Mayors of all the principal cities
in the States mentioned, the representa-
ton being on basis of twenty from each
State and ten from each city. The yrav
ity of the situation was apparently fully
realized by those in authority.
Contrary TO statements of some deal
ers that coal will remain high all winter
even should the strike be settled, comes
the announcement from the coal trus,
heads in New York that the prices must
return to the regular October rates al
soon as the strike is over and deliveries
are resumed.
The announcement is considered By
some as an Indication that an early set
tlement of the strike is expected. The
men who caused the statement to so Out
are in a position TO gain inside informa

WEEKLY SUMMARY OF CROPS.
Corn in Shocks Damaged by Dampness
and Mold Over a iic Area.


The weekly crop report issued by the
| weather bureau says as n whole the week
was very wet in the districts east of the
| Rocky Mountains. with temperatures
generally above normal, except over the
| middle Rocky Mountain slope, where It
| was moderately cool. While the cXces-
sive rains interrupted farm work and
delayed the maturing of late crops, they
! proved favorable for termination OF fall
sown grain and placed the soil IN hne
condition for plowing and seeding. No
damage resulted from frosts, which We're
confined to the central and northern
Rocky Mountain districts on the Pacific
coast regions. The general conditions
on the Pacific coast were favorable, al
though rain is needed in eastern Oregon.
The weather has been unfavorahlc for
maturing late corn in the central valleys
and lake region. especially over the north
ern portion of these districts, and the re-
ports indicate that corn in shock has
been considerably damaged by dampness
and mold over wide area and that much
of the crop in the upper lake region and
Missouri valley will not be marketable.
Reports of injury from rain to open cot
ton are very general throughout the belt.
with the exception of the Carolinas and
portions of Texas, and sprouting and rot
ting in bolls are largely reported, cspe-
cially in the central districts. Picking,
though much interrupted, is well advanc-
ed and is nearing completion in some dis
tricts. Late cotton in central and north
ern Texas is making rapid growth, but
will not mature unless frosts are unusu-
ally late, and under these conditions
light top crop may also be gathered in
Alabama. A fine crop of sea island cot
ton is promised in South Carolina.
But little, if any. change in the apple
situation is indicated. the crop being light
in the middle Atlantic States and Ohio
valley, with more favorable conditions in
the upper lake regon and Missouri val
ley, fine yields of good quality being gath
cred in some States.
Late tobacco has been materially i'm,
