Origin of GuIpure Lace.

The origin of guipure lace is wrapped
In mystery. But there is pretty ira
dition regarding it current in the viii
lagos where it is made. II is said that
centuries ago a certain Venetian sailor
returned from a voyage in eastern
waters and brought to his betrothed.
a worker in needle point, a bunch of
the beautiful and delicate coraline,
which he told her was the lace made by
mermaids living in tho coral caves of
the Indian seas. pretty as 1t is," said
the maid. 81 will make something far

The sailor lad went off on another long
voyage, and during the months OF his
absence the girl worked day after day
with her needle forming white dots and
tiny stars. and uniting them with deli
cate brides" till at last an exquisite
scarf of gulpure was produced, which
was so beautiful that when she wore it
as bridal veil all Venice spoke of it
in glowing terms of admiration, and
many noble and royal women became
the patrons of the young lace maker.

There Is woman cobbler at Grand
Rapids. Mich. She Is the only woman
working at that trade In the state, and
for all she has heard, in the country,
though it's a good trade, she says.
She would almost as soon peg new
soles on a pair of wornout shoes or
patch pair of uppers as play the
piano, and she can do both, and, ac-
cording to the testimony of her neigh
bors do both well.
Many girls and women are employed
In shoe factories to do certain pats of
the work where shoes are made by ma
chlnery, but Mrs. Harmer isn't that
kind of shoe operator. She can and
does do all the work Of skilled cob
bier from the stitching of a split seam
I'm a woman's kid shoe TO the pegging
of a sole on cowhide boot. She Is
every bit as good cobbler as her
husband as he proudly admits, and he
learned the trade when he was a boy,
from his father.
Husband and wife work side by side
at the same work bench and share me
work equally. He started business 10
years ago, and worked so well that he
had to hire bigger store and needed
help.
It wasn't competent help that he got
at first. and that's how his wife hap
pened to turn to cobbling. She didn't
need to do 1t, but she wanted to and
she keeps 1t up. because she likes II
and feels proud of helping her husband
provide for the family and build up his
business.
They make up specially Of con-
structlng shoes for deformed persons

this woman cobbler, and she is good
to look at. She has three bright chit
dren. and her home reflects the domes-

Professor Davidson in the National
Geographic Magazine says that during
the last four years he has made nu-
merous inquiries concerning the origin
of the name of Cape Nome. He
searched every available chart and
narrative of the region until the Ad-
miralty chart of 1858 was found, which
proved to contain the earliest use of
the name. This discovery convinced
the professor that the name must have
been given during the voyage OF the
Sir John Franklin ships Herald and
Plover So he wrote to the chief o:
the Admiralty asking II any officer on
these ships was named Nome. The
following is tie reply: when the NJ.
s. chart of region was being construct
ed on board II. M. s. Herald attention
was drawn to the fact that this point
had no name, and a mark {? Name)
was placed against it.

chart from the ship this CD appears tc

draughtsman and appeared as Cape
Name. but the stroke OF the "a" being
very indistinct It was interpreted as c.
Nome, and has appeared with this
name over since.

who vas on board the Herald wheo

Eggs by the Pound.

There has been much talk about SELL

from the she'll the yolk becomes dry
and mcaly. They are then frozen solid
and kept in cold storage until wanted.
They are packed in tins of from ten to
forty pounds each, and of course the
demand for them comes principally
from the bakers for cakes and similar
purposes. II is said that a pound of
the frozen egg is equal to ten eggs of
the average size. They will not keep
sweet long after they have been
thawed out, so that 1t Is important
that the user knows how many pounds
he needs at one time, and opens no

careful to avoid putting in any tainted

thirteen cents pound, while other
grades not as carefully selected have
to be sold at ten cents.

True scab Is familiar disease to
sheep ralsers in every part of the
world. The most prominent symp-
tom Is an itchness of the skin com
pelling the sheep to rub. scratch or
bite itself whenever possible. II will
scratch and kick itself with It's hind
feet, thus destroying the wool wher-
ever the feet can reach. Il will also
bite Itself and will become extremely
restless, more particularly at night.
preventing the animal from resting
and make II nervous and irritable
The treatment of scab Is very
simple matter. II taken in the start
before there Is much irritation OF the
skin. The parasite does not penetrate
the skin, like those producing mango
In the horse and dog. The parasites
producing scab in sheep live on the
surface, like lice. so most any of the
ordinary dips applied to them will
come In contact with the parasites
and kill them, but may not kill the
eggs, which will hatch out In from
ten days to two weeks. when the ap-
plication must be repeated. II the dis
ease has been allowed to become
chronic, then there will be scabs
formed so that enough parasites will
get under and not come in contact
with the medicine. and they will still
live to perpetuate their kind.
In order to treat scab successfully
the wool should all be clipped off. so as
TO expose the skin as much as possible
to the air. Like mango in the horse,
the diseased animal should be separ-
ated from the well and should be well
fed, to Duild up the physical strength
as quickly as possible as II Is we'll
known fact that parasitic life lives
at the expense of physical life. Build
up the physical strength, and the body
offers greater resistance to parasitic
life.
After the animals have been dipped
they should not be turned into pas
lures where they were while suffering
from the disease. The parasite Is not
long lived, consequently animals kept
out of an infected pasture for couple
of months can then be safely turned
in again.-Dr William Mclean. State
Veterinarian OF Oregon, before the
