ALL OVER THE HOUSE.
DeveraI Kinds of Restful Pillows For
Weary Heads.

weary FlCaHS'
Why rest consented with the ordl-
nary unhygienic feather pillow when
a little care and pains will secure
you one far more aesthetic and de-
sirable?
There is the old fashioned hop pIl-
low, than which you can have no
better. When warmed it will re-
Iieve neuralgia pains and induce
sleep.
More dainty still is the rose pill
low, made OF the petals carefully
dried, as YOU dry them for potpour-
ri. Some sweetness always fingers
in the petals, making them deli
cious resting place for a tired head.
Then, again, there is the clover
pillow. Glover can be had for the
picking in any country spot. You
dry the red and white blooms the
same as the rose petals, and they
retain for long time scent similar
to that of new mown hay.
The favorite pillow with most
people and really one of the most
desirable is the one made of pine
needles. The balsamic breath of
the pine woods fingers in it, sooth-
ing and quoting to the teverlSh
head as well as pleasing to the nos
trils. Such a pillow is a valuable
possession for those afflicted with
lung troubles or any tendency to-
ward them.
In making these pillows, each and
every one, be careful to select a
thin, not to say filmy, material for
the covers in order to permit free
exhalation of the imprisoned per-
fumes.

Coffee jelly.

Coffee jelly makes an excellent
substitute for the hot infusion at
dinner and is free from some of the
disadvantages of coffee in the ordi-
nary form. In hot weather it may
be found more agreeable than iced
coffee, and the astringent principles
of the coffee berry are nullifed by
the gelatin, which is cooling and
soothing to the stomach. Care must
be taken in making the jelly, as in
preparing the drink, to use a suffi-
cient quantity of coffee.

good exhibit of these horses made at the
Worlds fair at st. Louis, next year in

the old store. This side will be stocked
with the best line of shoes ever shown in
this county. The north side is devoted
exclusively to the grocery business and
the fixtures are the most up-to.date that

the largest grocery supply houses and

reason to feel proud. The building is
heated by hot air, and lighted by

OBITUARY..

u DONALD LARRABEE PLATT.
= After brief illness, Saturday morn
ing, September 18th there passed into
the life eternal the spirit of Donald
Larrabee, only child of Fred Elmore and
Belle Carr Platt. aged two years and
three months.
Possessed of an intelligence far in adj
vance of his years, and of a most affect
ionate and vivacious disposition, he was
the comrade and companion as well as
the JOY and sunshine of the home and
hearts now left desOlate by his loss. He
was to them jewel rare and cared for
most tenderly.
"But the dear Master came one day
Their gem to take.
"We cannot let it 60" they cried
Our hearts would break,
Nay. but the Master comes for it
70 bear above,
To deck His royal diadem,
He comes in love.
"And where the hearts rich treasure is,
The heart will be
Your jewel will be safe above
Gone before thee
The Master said these words and gazed
With pitying look
While in the hush of dewy morn
The gem He took.
The funeral services were attended
Monday the Nth inst. by large con-
course of friends, whose sympathy and
kindness have been deeply appreciated
by the bereaved parents.
The little form was laid to rest in
Lake View cemetery surrounded by the
many beautiful floral tributes sent by
friends.
"The bright gem is safe at last,
Yes, Master, Thou may'st keep our own
For it is Thine,
Safe in the house not made with hands,
Tis ours and Thine"

DAN PATCH BEATEN.
A New Record of I.57 Made by Prince
Alert.


Alert. =
Prince Alert, the pacing hero of a
hundred races and the champion of a
score of half mile tracks, beat the
worlds pacing record of 1853, held by
Dan Patch, at the Empire track, New
York, Wednesday. Prince Alert hsd
recently won the half mile track cham
pionship in 2:034, which had been won
only the week before by Dan Patch in
2:04 and good judges were confident
that he would smash the record.
The weather and track were perfect.
Mart Demarest, the trainer and driver
of the Prince, on account of over weight
decided to have John Curry drive. At
the third time, the starter gave the word
and Prince Alert shot away, going to the
quarter in 29i. AS he got into the back
stretch he increased his speed and was
at the half in SO seconds.
The crowd realized that they were
witnessing the fastest mile of the
century and cheered the gallant PAGER.
Without break or a tremor the Prince
flashed by the three-quarter pole in 1:26
Ia and, without urging came on with
most superb burst of speed, crossing the
wire in 1867.

cause the little arms are restricted,

save yourself much extra work and
many fretful days. My baby wore
her first dresses until she wore them
out, some being in use when she was
two and halfyears old. No change
was necessary save in length of skirt.
