Odds and Ends.

Fuller's earth is something that every
housekeeper should keep at hand. 1t will
remove endless variety of stains on
clothing, rugs, etc.
An English fad that has just reached
America is that of wearing sandals. These
come in several styles, and their use is
said to meet with the approval of physi-
clans and chiropodists.
Mitts made of Greek nets are embroidered
with silk or jet or colOred heads and even
gold. silver or steel. AT the wrist they are
drawn in by narrow ribbons. Mitts SAYS
the Drygoods Economist, are already in
use for evening wear and will be popular
for street wear later in the season.
Steaming is the best process. for cleaning
wells Wind the veil carefully, with even
edges, around a piece of a broom handle,
lay across a boiler or saucepan of water
and steam for about three-quarters of an
hour. Leave on the broom handle until dry
and all the dirt and dust will be gone Civ
ing it a new stiffness.
Old prints in ebony-hued frames make
an attractive frieZe above the row of fancy
plates and bric-a-brac or row of stems
that to be found in most modern din
ing rooms. If Oriental ornaments decorate
the shelf, Japanese water colors arranged
against a background of mating may be
utilized as frieze with artistic effect.
Hats decorated with large crush roses and
full ostrich plumes. or chouz of chiffon or
tulle, will be as much the fashion as ever
the coming season, and so also will be the
fancy for having the boa match the plum
age on the hat. There will remain a prefer
ence in favor of white, black black and
white mixtures, and delicate shades of
gray.
A sandwich especially appropriate for
these lenten days is made from fish-any
variety desireo-boiled in water to which
a little salt has been added, and drained
and the flesh carefully separated from
bones and bits of skin The fish is placed
over the fire in a saucepan with a little
milk or cream, bit of butter and sprinkle
of pepper. and worked into a paste during
the heating process. When cold the paste
is spread slices of wheat or graham
bread, slightly buttered.
The very latest word from over the sea is
that the short box coat of velvet satin
brocade or MORE. is to rival the long rag
lans, newmarkets. and empire cloaks put
on over rich evening dresses Of every de-
scription during the present season Unless
the skirt seams of the long enveloping wrap
are slashed, it is almost impossible TO
raise the trained skirt from floor or pave
ment with any degree of grace or ease. and
in the interests OF fashion as well as in
the interests of spring and summer trade
the new elegant box coat is presented
easy TO put on and off, made with omen
flowing sleeves, lined with white satin and
lavishly trimmed with accOrdion-pleated
chiffon frills about the neck and down the
front.

tinued this until he had a shapeless mass
of clay Then defty he worked at the
figure until the outlines of his assistant
were shown. Mr.. Taft while working ex-
planned each movement and the reason
for it,
After completing the figure he went to a
larger one fastened 10 a large board. This
he uncovered, showing the head Of pretty
girl. The cheeks were prettily rounded and
the expression Of the mouth was natural.
The head was surrounded by a mass OF
hair combed in a style fashionable many
years ago With this figure Mr. Taft
changed the expression from one of meek
ness and simplicity TO that of a woman who
was in great pain He did this by cutting
on the forehead slight wrinkles and caus-
ing sharp lines TO appear about the mouth.
He again changed this very quickly TO an
expression of happiness by causing the
cheeks to bulge and the mouth slightly 10
open. Mr. Taft continued working on this
figure, showing many different faces. While
he was thus engaged his assistant, Mr..
Cornell, was working on head on
smaller frame. Ii was that OF very young
girl. BY the time Mr.. TAFT was through
with the large figure his assistant turned
over his work TO the sculptor. who then
explained the art OF plaster casting. Mr..
Taft took several small pieces or tin and
made halo around the front part OF the
head. He then mixed "A quantity OF plaster
OF paris with water, the solution being In
liquid form He then went 10 the girl figure
and sprinkled the mixture over the face and
head, and In a short while II resemDled

one inch thick He also took several other
figures and explained how "A sculptor would
begin to cut the frame OF a man from
piece Of marble. The lecture was greatly
eniOyed.

Nothing Like Fresh Air.
New York Sun.

New York Sun.
New York women will continue to have
to run to the complexion specialists" said
a physician. until they learn to appreciate
fresh air better. The air need not neces-
sarily be cold, but 1t must be fresh. 1t
should be remembered that catching cold
depends a great deal more on stale air and
draughts than upon cold air, and the very
worst colds caught when one is tired
and goes out into the air feeling tagged.
To avoid colds and keep ones health be
sure that the air is good. Let there be free
ventilation. With care this can be secured
without draughts or an oversupply of cold
air.
II went into a living room few days
ago. The walls were hung with pictures
and the door with tapestries. The windows
were richly decorated with hangings and
on the panes hung costly transparencies.
But they were tightly closed, and, though
the room was neither too hot nor too cold,
1t was intOlerably close. When l escaped
into the air l remembered having noticed
the two daughters. The mother was nurs-
ing a cold sore. The other daughter had
simply a wretched complexion. L thought
it doubtful if merely opening the window
would have cured these women, but | am
sure that they would have had infinitely
better health could they have had better
air in which to sit and work.
mo danger to the complexion need be
feared, even from the freezing air of the
last few days, if proper precautions are
taken. If | were a woman with a delicate
skin before / went out very cold day
1 would rub little cream into my skin and
i would wear a veil without dots, at least
without dots where the eyes came, and [
would get one as thin as possible, so as
not 10 interfere with my enjoyment of the
air. Then [ would go out into the weather,
sure that l would not be roughly used. A
healthy woman, taking such care of her
self, may chap little and redden much,
but the clear pink and white or olive and
red of her complexion will always show to
advantage.
The best dishcloths are made of knitted
cotton, for they wash again and again and
look like new. After using always wash a
dishcloth with soap and water, then rinse
thoroughly and hang in the air to dry.
AS a substitute for cotton or silk thread
for stringing pearl or other beads use "A
violin string. 1t will be found TO be more
serviceable.

be assured that modern woman is more

weaknesses of the heart which have been
peculiar to her sex from time immemorial;
that her credulity. her passion for self

GAMEwELL CONTRACT MONEY.


the city tn Collect 1t.
After lying dormant a month the ques>
ton of the honesty of the Gamewell con-
tract came up again yesterday, when VIII
liam kerwin. a representative of the Game
well Fire Alarm Telegraph Company, ap-
peared at the office of the Board of Safety
TO ascertain why the board is taking so
much time to approve the contract and to
pay the company the large sum of money
IL claims is due it. As soon as Mayor
Bookwalter heard that the GameweII
representative was in the board office he
dropped everything else and appeared
there also. The session at once became
lively.
The mayor told Kerwin that there are
many queer things about the contract he
could not understand and one of them was
why the Gamewell Company expected to
get paid twice for the same thing.
THE contract expressly provides" said
the mayor. that your company must fur
nish the wire and that payment for the
wire shall be included i'm the total COM
pensation. Now | find YOU presenting a
bill the side for that wire and expecting
TO get paid.
The Gamewell representative told the
mayor that he had misunderstood the con-
tract. When the contract was adopted
he said, the wiring and a few other details
were not included In the contract price
The old Board of Safety, however. he said
desired the Gamewell Company 10 furnish
the wire and agreed 10 pay the company
extra for IL. That extra money Kerwin
wanted 10 collect yesterday, but the mayor
be paid until the whole matter had been
investigated. The amount is 50 40.

RAILROAD YIN. c. A. WORK
ASSOCIATION BUILDINGS IN PROS
PECT FOR SEVERAL CITIES.
Matters Discussed at the Quarterly
Meeting of the State Execu-
tive Committee.

The state executive committee of the
Y. NJ. c. A. held its quartely meeting yes
terday afternoon and last night in the Eng
lish Hotel. But two departments of the
association were taken up at the meeting
and discussed at any length. The railroad
committee. which at this time has its hands
full, according to the secretary. has a
number of projects foot for the build
ing Of new railroad association halls. 1t
was announced by Secretary Stacey that
the Lake Shore & Michigan Southern Rail-
road had agreed to give $4,000 for the
building of an association hall at Elk
hart if the citizens and employees Of the
road would raise another $1,000. No time
was stipulated in the company's offer when
the money should be raised. Steps were
taken at the meeting by the executive COM
mittee TO raise the required amount, so
that the erection Of the Elkhart building
can soon be under way. 1t was also re
ported that much progress had been made
toward erecting association halls at Peru
and Lafayette. At the former place the
Wabash road and at the latter place the
Big Four have agreed to donate large
sums of money toward the building fund
If the citizens will raise a certain amount.
Since the last quartely meeting the
association has purchased the property
of the Terre Haute Club at Terre Haute.
which will be turned into "A local associa-
ton headquarters. 1t was said that to
make the place modern in every respect
and also have maintenance fund it was
necessary TO raise $4,000. This money, said
one of the members last night, will prob
ably be raised very soon by the Terre
Haute people.
President Swain, of Indiana University,
and G.. NJ. Wells. of Wabash College, who
is senior college deputy, reported that much
progress had been made recently in col

There is more than one secret OF endurance.
and the brave not always brave the
same reason. Sometimes his patience and cour-
age spring simply from the logged confidence
that things going TO grow better. He has the
feeling expressed by Harriet Beecher Stowe:
when you get in tight place and everything
goes against you. tin it seems IL you could
not hold on minute longer, never give up then.
for that's just the place and time that the

Variety in sleeves.
