SUMMER FANCY WORK
PotpOuFf Sachets Provide q Delight
full Way of Carrying About
Scented Flower Petals.

New ideas in fancy work are always
welcome when a summer holiday is in
prospect, its programme including the
delights of sitting out of doors in the
sultry days, or when round of country
house visiting is in contemplation, for
which a new piece of embroidery is at
all times pleasant accompaniment.
Potpourri sachets are dainty notion
which comes very happily with the
fancy for delicious, old-fashioned per-
fumes. Our grandmothers used to store
their potpourri, in china bowls and jars,
and of late years silver boxes with
pierced lids have been added to the
available receptacles for it. Potpourri
sachets provide delightful way of car
rying about the scented petals and i'm
parting their fragrance to the contents
of drawer or portmanteau.
Two charming patterns are illustrated.
One is shaped like square mouthed
bag, made in white china silk and en-
broidered with a design of half opened
crimson roses. A separate case sewed
into the lining contains the potpourri
and can be taken out and refilled at any
time with very little trouble. The 9TH
er is pale blue silk, has rounded corners
and is powdered with small roses in rib
bon work.
The lining is delicate pink silk, and in
this also separate case contains the

AVOID HURRY II e HABIT.
II Destroys ThorouKhness, Causes
Worry and should He Particular-
.ly Avoided BY women. =

II there is one lesson more than TN
other that Americans, and especially
American women, need to learn, and at
once, it is to make haste slowly. Hurry
is the most destructive of our national
habits. 1t is the chief cause Of our ma
tional disease, nervous prostration, and
one of the principal allies of the under
taker. Hurry and worry always go to
gether. In differentiating between
haste and hurry a noted alienist cites
the numerous quick-lunch restaurants
which have sprung up during the last
decade in all American cities. The sign
itself, quick lunch" or "a meal in q
minute" is enough to set one to hurry
ing. The consequence is imperfect
mastication, dyspepsia and nervous
prostration.
Hurry destroys thoroughness. The
person who hurries cannot have his
heart in his work, says the Housekeeper.
Thinking constantly of what is to be
done next, the task of the present is
sighted by borrowing unnecessarily
from the future. Paradoxical as it may
sound, hurry is the subterfuge of the
lazy. A man or woman who is lazy at
heart often hurries to make a pretense
of working and detract attention from
real idleness. Little time is required to
compute the results achieved by the
person who bustles breathlessly about
with nerves unstrung and putting every
one within hearing in the same condi-
ton.

Empire State Express In Foot-Ball.

Empire State Express In Football
The New York Centrals Empire State
Express is recognized as the swiftest and
surest train operated by Americas greatest
railroad, and considered the very best means
to cover the ground in the time required. 1t
u Tor this reason that the Harvard Uni.
verslty football team named their best and
surestplay Of tho season of 1902 the '.Empire
State Express" for they believed it to be
the most reliable play in their programme.
It was successful throughout the season
until it met Yale's "2Oth Century Limited y
play, which was just as swift, safe and sure,
buthad longer endurance and was 'slimited''
only by the size of the field. The names OF
the rival teams very correctly describe the
difference in the famous trains, the 'tEmpire

Buffalo,. while the goth Century Limited"

their own treasured recipe, handed down

recipes advocate the use of rose petals

form which the tube is given enables
the Wearer to suspend it around his
body by means of the supporting
jacket, beneath the outer clothing, and
it takes but short time to initiate the
reservoir through the mouthpiece,
which is provided with a valve to
check the outward flow of the air. The
spiral coils lie flat when debated, and

The Violet Lixht Cure.


In the curious light cure of DR.. W. J,
Morton, violet light is produced in the
body itself. A quinine solution of the
strength Of one grain to eight ounces,
shows beautiful violet fluorescence UNI
der the X-rays, and as a 20-grain dose
of quinine would probably cause the ten
pounds Of blood In the body to become
Z solution of similar strength, it is as
sumed that the blood would light up in
a like way. The quinine, in a dose of
five to twenty grains, is administered
an hour before the K-ray treatment.
The violet radiations are credited with
curative properties, and DR.. Morton
thinks that In cancer, which he has
treated more than year, he has OBJ
tanned results that could not be reached
by the X-rays alone.

Indian Bride Blaxed Trail.

It is told of an Alaskan adventurer
that he chose bride from one of the
Indian tribes up toward the Chilcoot
pass, took her to large and stately
hotel in Canadian city, and one day
left her alone in their rooms while he
went out a while. He stayed longer
than he had intended, and she missed
him. Finally it became intolerable,
and she glided forth in search of him,
without paying any attention to the
elevator. After while some one re-
marked peculiar traces on the balus-
tiers and doors, when it transpired that
the Indian bride had blazed a trail BY
which to retrace her steps. Perhaps
she didn't blaze it with a tomahawk.
but it was effectively done. Her hus-
band paid the damage.

HEALTH AND DISEASE.
Woman Physician Says We Think
Too Much of Ailments Instead
of Their OppOsites.

A woman physician, in addressing
her audience the other day, gave some
helpful suggestions as to the way of
looking at our bodily conditions. She
SAID: Health is contagious, much
more potently so, too, than is disease.
I've about come to the conclusion that
we physicians study disease too much
and health too little to be of best use
to humanity. Why, during our STU
dent years, we have an average of
only one hour week devoted to n.y.
glene, and two, perhaps, to physiology.
All the rest of the time we're studying
disease. Now I believe that's just
the opposite of what we ought to do.
II we'd study health, talk health, act
health l believe disease would take
care Of itself. And it's much the same
thing with temperance. If we, as
white ribboners, would make our
selves as lovely and lovable, as sweet
tempered and usefully womanly as we
possibly could land we can be none of
these things unless we have sound
bodies), l believe nothing would so
help the cause We all love. YOU know
1t isn't much use to talk temperance
after your third cup of tea or coffee,
or your one too many helpings of pie
or even roast beef. 1t is not only in
temperate, it is unchristian, to have
dyspepsia. It is a disgrace to have
any ailment that common sense will
obviate. And it shows a lack of in
tellectuality to make each others all
ments and diseases the chief topic of
conversation. hope to live to see the
day when it will be considered as ILL
bred to ask after last weeks influenza
or last months rheumatism as it now
is to remark on the patch on ones

and poise and wholesomeness, temper

Court yesterday rendered its decision
in the suit brought by the heirs Of
Henry Rudolf. an American citizen.
against tho Venezuelan government
for damages for the annulment OF a
concession given in 1892 TO build a
market in Caracas. Judgment was
given In favor Of Rudlon's heirs Their
claim for the large amount of $780,
600 to be paid by the Venezuelan gov
ernment was admitted. The United
States legation watched the case very
closely Secretary Russell and Naval
Attache Johnston attended the ses.
sions Of the court and followed the ar
gumonts.
Yesirday's decision is interesting
inasmuch as the German and British

braska has sent two senators to Wash

and one by the Union Pacific.
Mr.. Addicks bases his claim to the
United States Senate on the amount Of
money he has spent in buying votes.
Now that l have said a good deal
against Mr. Addicks, want to say
something in his favor. If he goes to
the Senate from Delaware he can say
he paid for it with his own money.
There are senators there who did not
get there with their own money, but
with the money of others"
Mr. Bryan said the Republican party
in this State is Mortified at the buying
Of votes here, when two administra-
tions in six years have been bought by
the corporations of the country. The
speaker said that but for the money
spent in 1896 and 1900. the Republicans
would have had no victory.
The last part Of Mr.. Bryan's address
was taken up in discussing the money
and trust questions. He declared that
the money question lis not dead. In his
closing remarks, Mr. Bryan said that he
mad been reading the local papers and
that he did not feel so hard towards
the Republicans as they seemed to feel
towards each other. He also referred
in his closing remarks to the recent
statement Of Mr.. Addicks to the effect
that nobody would ever be allowed to
hold office under certain conditions,
and said that he thought it was prob
ably overdrawn. This caused much
laughter in the audience
AT the conclusion of his address sew
e.al hundred persons crowded upon the
stage-and shook hands with Mr. Bryan.
At the close Of his address, MIR. Bryan
was presented with handsome
bouquet by lady in the audience.

Washington Feb i9.-The Rudlofi
claim was one of the largest brought
by American citizens against the Vene-
zuelan government and had It not
been settled would have come up for
adjudication before the mixed commits
sion provided Tor IN the protocol sign
ed here Tuesday by Secretary Hay
and Mr.. Bowen The decision Is
source of intense satisfaction to the
officials here. The contract price Of
the proposed market was 100000 the
claim for a like amount. and the judg.
ment OF the court shows that It was
granted in full Considerable work
has been done by the American CON
cessionaries toward the construction
OF the proposed market when a change
of administration occurred in Vene-
zuela, Then the concession to Rud-
loft was annulled because Of the OBJ
lection of the government to having
such an establishment controlled by
foreigners. Probably not more than
half the amount of the claim allowed
bad been expended when the work on
the market was stopped by the gov
ernment's action.
