IreIand's Wonderful Linen.

Whether or not Ireland is the finest
country in the world for growing flax.
1t is beyond dispute the finest In the
world for bleaching linen. an operation
which requires from six 10 eight weeks,
according to the nature and weight Of
the fabric. Nowhere else can the snow
white finished fabric be turned out TO
rival the Irish bleach. France, Bel
GUM, Germany and the United States
have all entered into competition and
retired unsuccessful The quality Of
the water, the climate and the inherit
ed experience Of the Irish bleachers
must all contribute TO the result, which
has had abundant practical demonstra-
ton that Ireland now occupies and has
always occupied the first place in the
whole world for bleaching and finish

A Queer Tug of War.

In Burma the inhabitants have Il
novel form of the sport that elsewhere
is commonly called tug Of war. In the
Burmese game there is Il rain party
and n drought party, which pull one
against the other. the victory of either
party being considered to have imme-
date results rs regards the weather.
The drought party, however, obtains
few victories. for the kind Of weather
it represents is commonly not so much
desired as rain. In the face, therefore,
of Il strong public opinion the rain
party is nearly always allowed to win,
the palpable "roping" in the popular
notion being generally followed by Il
fertiliZing downpour.

A story of Lady BeaconsfieId.

A story indicating the great affection
and intense admiration which Lady
Beaconstield entertained for her hus-
band is told as follows: On a certain
day when Lord Beaconsfield, then Mr..
Disraeli. had TO make an important
speech he and his wife drove to the
house together. Arrived at their desti-
nation, he alighted from the carriage
and shut the door with a bang. He
stayed some minutes talking TO his
wife through the carriage window be-
fore he bade her farewell and entered
the house. 1t was late at night when
he arrived home but he found his wife
waiting for him. He noticed, however.
that her left hand was swathed in
bandages. On inquiring the cause Of
this he learned that when he left her
he had shut her hand in the carriage
door. and. though she suffered terrible
pain, she had allowed no trace OF ii 10
appear on her face, knowing that IL
she did her husband would lose that
self composure which Is necessary to
the delivery OF good speech.

At the Theater.

One of the most annoying things in
the world is TO go TO the theater and
sit back Of man who has been 10 see
the play and insists upon telling his
companion all about the performance
and what's coming next. The other
night at one of the local playhouses a
man was greatly annoyed by the occu-
pant of the seat in front Of him talk

going to happen on the stage. Finally,
when the talk became incessant, he
exclaimed:

MAKING BREAD.

Biscuit and rolls require hotter
oven than bread.
Bread should rise to twice its original
quantity before 1t is ready to bake.
The sponge should be set at night if
the baking is to be done in the morn
ing; otherwise set it early In the morn
Ing.
Bread and biscuits should rise in n
moderately warm place, for if too cold
It will be heavy or if too hot it is likely
to sour.
Milk is preferable for mixing. In
some cases the quantity uAd will have
TO be varied a little, as solne flour will
absorb more moisture than others.
A good sponge can be made OF one
pint of sifted -four, one cake of com
pressed yeast dissolved in cupful Of
warm water and liquid enough to

'2'~ BOOK COVERS.
All OF the Cloth For Them Is Ma de
From Cotton Fabric.

All OF the cloth used in the binding
OF books is made from cotton fabric,
yet one would not say so on seeing the
finished product. Some of it looks ex-
actly like coarse linen. Other styles
have an appearance OF the finest kind
of silk, while others have various sorts
Of finishes that look like leatheret, can
vas, watered silk and a thousand diff
ferent designs.
When the cloth comes from the mills
II is treated in various ways TO pre-
pare ii for the dyeing process. which Is
the most important. Different kinds OF
sizing are used in the different grades.
and after this is done it is ready for
the color machines.
These are really the same sort OF ma
chimes that calico is made on. They
are built of great steel rolls or cams
that are heated TO IA high temperature
by means of live steam passing
through them constantly. The cloth
passes through boxes filed with the
Rniline color that the cloth is expected
TO be colored with. This is mixed with
a starch paste and is spread evenly all
through the cloth.
The latter then continues through the
steam heated cams and Is finally rolled
up at the back Of the machine in a
heavy roll OF the desired color. The diff
ferent finishes are given in a second
process. The cloth is passed through
very heavy and massive steel rolls
which have been engraved with the de-
sign that is wanted. Fine lines run
ming diagonally across the cloth will
give a silk effect, and there are many
other impressions that may be stamped
on in this Springfield Union.

Cotton Passes u Cent Mark.

News and Observer 9Th: Twelve
cents has been left behind in the cot
ton market.
The market went forward with a
bound yesterday and in Raleigh the
prices were from u to 1914 cents a
pound.
The government report caused
this, for it was a smaller estimate of
the crop of this season than had been
expected by many who looked for a
short crop report. The general idea
seemed that there would be a report
of about ten and a quarter million
bales, perhaps a little less.
But it was a great deal less, for
when the figures were announced it
was $685. 39 bales, being under the
ten million mark. This drove the
market up and the fluctuations in flu
lures on the New York Cotton Elk
change and on other cotton markets
were rapid.
