Recipe for Cleaning Lace.

Here is recipe for cleansing deli
cate laces which an old lacemaker
who has woven many a gossamer web
for the great connoisseur and lover
of laces, Nine. Modjeska, gave to her
pupil and patron: Spread the lace out
on paper, cover with calcined mag
nesia, place another paper over it, and
put it away between the leaves of a
book for two or three days. Then
all it needs is a skillful little shake
to scatter the powder, and it's delicate
threads are as fresh and clean as
when first woven.-Good Housekeep.

Copyright, 1902, by Daily Story Pub. Coz
When Hepburn first saw the young
woman he was rather taken with her.
A little later he decided that she was
altogether to self-reliant and self-pos-
sessed for his. taste. There was a
man in the party who had really
achieved something in the world OF
art and was being lionized, process
to which he seemed to take to rather
too kindly; a man who aroused an in
tOlerable itching in the toes of every
other masculine person present. Hep
burn noticed that Miss Pollard was
one of the very few of the women who
did not assume the attitude of ador-
alton in the presence of the Genius.
Perhaps the Genius noticed it, too,
for he left his little circle of lovely
worshipers and seating himself by
Miss Pollards side honored= her with
some of his exclusive and original
views of things, general and particu-

Hepburn happened to be close by
and heard the conversation, which
filled his soul with joy.
"A steel trap is leisurely, even dila
tory compared with her." he said that
evening to a. select audience of the
overshadowed. "She had him ratified
in the first round, and dazed and rub
bing the ropes before the third. You

Rain-Proof Materials.

Rain-proof materials come in sever
al tailor styles, so that it is quite pos
sble for a woman who doesn't find
ready made just the garment she de-
sires, to have one built to suit her,
says the Washington Times. This ar
rangement affords an opportunity for
more variety than would otherwise be
the case, so that instead of seeing a
hundred rain coats all made after the
same fashion, it is seldom that one
comes across duplicates.
For ordinary street wear, the rough
effects are considered the correct
thing in dress, zibiline being in the
lead, while a new rough finished
vicuna is making a strong bid for
favor. The use of plaids has brought
about a change in the style of suits,
for naturally these designs could not
be treated in the same manner as the
plalner cloths.

 NEW ORLEANS, June I5.-Early Liverpool showed most exciting conditions prevailing in that market with deliveries advance some St 70 z5 points; the greatest improvement being m the winter months spots up g. Later ca hles received advised enormous buying by Egypt and a reported attempt to corner July August and August September. It Is to be noted that Europe was buyer of both the near ana distant options from the subsequent course or the English market would appear that real izing to secure profits must have been indulg- ed in freely.
 There was also considerable selling in the local markets at high levels reached; no doubt those participating believed that they had se- lecfed the top prices This course was most natural as the extreme advance offered an in yiting opportunity to accept profits. re- markable phase of the situation is that the New York market continually quotes niddling cotton at prices lower than the commodity can be obtained at any of the Southern spot cen fers The demand during the late session here stinulated by the reported break in the levees proved to be equal to the offerings for Nquida- ffon proposes and there was an insanitable demand on all recessions. The closing prices are practically the highest of the day. Every condition apparently favors a further ad- vance although on account of the rapidity of the upward movement some reaction would seem to be in order. Sentiment continues very bullish and it would seem that pur- chases on decided breaks should prove profit able.

Chicago Grain and Provisions.

Chcago, June 15.-Bullish foreign ad- vices caused strength in wheat today and cents higher and September up 5-S cents. July corn was 1-Sc higher. oats were a shade higher, while September provisions vert unchanged to 1-2c better.
 Wheat ruled rather quite with trading confined largely to local interests. Open- Ing prices were easier on the excellent weather with July a shade to 1-4T3-Sc lower at 75 1-4@75 1-2 and September off l-Sq1-4 at P S-4 to 72 7-S. The weakness was of short duration, however. for with good demand from commission houses the market soon rallied ana he'd firm the remainder of the session. The principal factor in the situation was the bad con dition Of the crops reported from abroad, the Hungarian report being especially bulish while in France and England the crop was reported badly damaged bv rains. A decrease in the visible supply of 2,1O7'OOO bushels was also a strengthening shorts and on buying for long account, September advanced to B 5-S and closed at 73 l-2m5-Sc, gain of 5-Sc for the day After selling up to 76, July closed 3-Sc higher at 10 7-S@76, Clearances of wheat and flour equalei 249, POO bushels The amour on passage decreased G9GGlO bushels. Primary receipts were 460000 bushels against 605. 700 a year ago Re- Ceipts, nineteen cars, one contract: Min neapolis and Duluth reported 43S cas- a total for the three points of 457 against 450 last week and 462 a year ago.
 Trading in corn was only moderately active and the feature early was the changing from July to September by elevator people. The market was easier at the opening under the influence of favorable weather and liberal reciepts but the strength of wheat and a fair cash demand caused a better feeling later in the day. The close was firm with July l-Sc higher at IS 5-S after selling between 4S Is and 4S 5-S. September closed with a gain of 1-4 d3-S at AT 7-SG4S, Receipts 516 cars, IS contract.
 The feature in the trading in oats early in the day was the selling of July by traders with profits. The offerings were In exscess of the requirements of shorts and in consequence the market declined. Later the demand became more urgent and prices advanced and closed steady with July a shade higher at 3S 3-4, after ranging between 3S 1-4 and 3S 7-S. Sep temher was up a fraction at 8 3-S Q1-2c.

 NEW YORK. June I5-The market this morning looked little top heavy Heretofore new crops have advanced on rational news of some descriptions but this morning the most sensational advance of the season, took place With weather conditions in the cotton belt perfect. When prices move in defiance of con nitons m this fashion, it generally, means that the limit IS very nearly reached It is always when the gloom is the thickest and no ray of pope can be found in any direction that a man pegins 10 buy. Likewise after such an ad- vance as this when 1t seems as though prices cover would stop going up 1t may be that the new crops are going pretty close Ito the top Tor while at least. Prices fuotuated in an Extensive and wholly cratic fashion adyanc- Ing some 30 points at one time and breaking i5 or 20 points at time. It was almost inn- possoble to trade at times and why any one should risk his money in market like this we Iail to see, Sooner or later there will be serious collapse and 1t will come, up on the market like a thief in the night. Since values IS quoted on the board are no longer repre- sentative of what we have been dealing in as cotton as staple commodity. grown from the south and sold to spinner, we do not care to { nave any long interest in contracts that rep resent. we know not what. With the new crops over 10 cents a pound and the coming crop wholly in doubt there is nothing unon which to base arguments for purchases and yet the situation is an extremely dangerous one in which to go short of cotton This is one or the times where a great deal of money can be made by watching the market and keeping out of it.

 NEW YORK, June l6.-Cotton opened 10 to 2S points higher Cables being high to cause stampede of the shorts and wild buying followed with bears with unprecedented rise of lS to 24 points in Liverpool market. The weather South was generally fair and more seasonable as to moisture, but the tempera- ture Is entirely too low and as we are now at the middle of June the position of bulls is much stronger. since progress must be very slow at this advanced date. Without remark ably fine weather the balance of season. and then the frost period must be quite late if a full yield is to be secured. Prices advanced now with as great ease as when prices were cents lower and they may be further ad- yanced with as much ease as heretofore. There Is no cotton on hand and none of consequence coming from ground and until it appears body cares to sell. The market after the opening turned quieter and prices eased off prising subsistence in the examination and hesitation was displayed on both sides with bulls quite confident and expecting to hold their own, especially as bulish bureau re- port is probable tomorrow Weather in Texas was better but boil weevil seem to be multiplying in Texas and nights are too cool Cables at the close were to Is points net higher Poht receipts estimated l.4oo against 4, GOO last year.
