DIR. Patton was delivering lecture recent
~ in his course on ethics at the Princeton
Theological seminary and experienced much
ANNOYANCE because some of the students ate
peanuts instead of attending to him. Final
~ he administered this rebuke: Gentle
men, have delayed starting the most inn
portant part of to-day's lecture hoping that
the stock of peanuts would be consumed and
restful quiet be restored. As the quantity
seems ample TO meet the demands and the
supply appears inexhaustible, feel CON
strained TO request that your appettes be
restrained until the conclusion of the lee
ture. would be greatly pleased if in the
future anyone wishing to conduct hive
o'clock tea in the classroom would conhne
the refreshments to sponge cake.

FOR Your Vacation Trip.

The Yellowstone Park, the nations play
ground, is larger than the State of Delaware
and nearly twice as large as Rhode Island.
As in size It exceeds all other national parks
of the world combined, so in grandeur and
scenery it is unequaled. Here are located
the eight great geysers of the world. Mount
Washburne, one of the peaks in the park,
has an altitude of 1888 feet. The whole
park is an area of wonders unparalleled. 1t
is from 1000 to 5000 feet above the level of
the sea and is therefore within the zone Of
two seasons.
But to really know this wonderland you
should take trip through there. You can
not spend vacation season more profitably
or more pleasantly. The Chicago, Mlwau-
kee & st. Paul Railway offers choice of
routes to and from Yellowstone Park. II
you are interested, complete information
train service and tickets will be furnished
on request. F. A. Miller, General Passenger
Agent, Chicago.

To Australia.

Circuit tour tickets covering the railroad
trip to the Pacific Coast and via the various
trans-Paci6c steamship lines to the far East,
are each day becoming a feature Of greater
popularity to the travelling public. The Chi
cago l. Northwestern Ry. have recently
announced the sale of tickets of this charac-
ter to Sidney, Australia, and return, in con-
nection with their Overland Service to the
Coast, tickets being good returning via the
Royal Mail Line to Vancouver or via the
Oceanic s. s. Co.'S Line, the direct route to
San Francisco.
These circuit tour tickets are sold at very
low rates. The trans-Paci6c service has
grown and improved very rapidly in recent
years and tourists find the trip filled with
scenes of picturesque interest not equaled
in the old journeys made by tourists through
England and on the continent.
The transcontinenta train service and
the trans-Pacifc steamship service are of
the highest possible character and the time
required for making these journeys is much
less than ever before.

ACCEPTABLE PRESENTS FOR INFANTS.

It Is often difficult to choose a gift for the advent of an Infant. As a rule any thing that Is the work of the donor is much more appreciated than if 1t Is merely mat ter of entering shop and e1pending money.
 Of course. certain things can only be obtained in that way, and those as rule do not require to be duplicated, whereas ar ticles of wearing apparel may be without number and not be superfiuous. With the simplest forms of expenditure In view. there are bootikins, bfbs or shirts. The bootikins may be knitted or crocheted, or they may be quickly made of eiderdown. If 1t is summer baby they should be thin, but an Infant as a rule needs bootikins of some sort. They may be made of Shetland wool or silk. A simple way of croeheting these Is to commence at the toe with scv- eral chain stitches. then crochet round them with two stitches into each loop, and when q cap is formed continue, enlarging at regular intervals, making double stitches until the front top of slipper Is reached. From this point omit the middle, eroeheting only the sole and sides until there Is suf- hcient, then join the two sides together at the back of the heel drawing the middle stitches slightly toward sharp corner at the heel.
 Make the upper part more lacy, picking up the inside stitches from the shoe edge and working upward to the required height for sock. It is very pretty If q color Is used for the shoe part and white for the sock. and 1t is an improvement If an addi- tional edge be worked round that of the shoe. To make them of eiderdown Is ex- ceedingly simple. Each half of the bootikin being cut out fiat, they are joined together the seam edges being finely herringboned with silk and featherstftched over the seam on the right side, as also all round the edges of the open part above the small notch They are made to tie in the front with washing ribbon half an inch wide. The same idea may be carried out in wash silk, preferably Japanese quality; the bootikin of double silk, wadded with very thin layer of wool or null between, and other wise featherstitched and finished like those of eiderdown.
 Few persons realize how easy bibs are to make and what pretty work the making is. The interlining should be cheesecloth end the outer material null, nainsook or wash lug silk Medallions of fine embroidery and small pieces Of insertion may he used eff
The Birmingham age-herald., 1903-08-02

fectively in this way, the design being ac- centuated by the stitching which keeps the materials together. The neck edge Is corded and the outer one trimmed with Yalenci- ennes lace or fine embroidery edging.
 A simple design Is illustrated to show what can be done with parallel lines of stitching, a medallion, few small stripes of insertion and little feather stitching. Plain bibs may be made pretty by sticking and feather stitching only, or little daisies may be worked in alternate squares formed by plain quilting.
 A knitted wool blanket makes pretty and useful present. To make this 1t is- necessary to cast about one hundred and sixty stitches of soft firm wool in white. At little way from each end two strips Of color are knitted in to form borders. Ine length should be about thirty-nine lncnes, plain garter stitch, and the ends bound with ribbon.
 Then there are little kimono jackets, very simple and so pretty; also full length wraps. A pretty design for one of these Is shown in the sketch. It is of cream chailie, with a Persian border around the lower edge, and is lined with pale blue, pink or white silk. It has little yoke, pointed back and front, the edge of which. as also the collar and front, is bound with wash ribbon, which is secured by one side of the featherstitching; bows of ribbon finish the shoulders and tie in front. This pattern may be carried out in various ways.
 Another pretty form of wrap Is square of cashmere or any preferred soft dowbie

yerted plalts at the back, with decided liars and no ripple effect, such as Is seen on some of the cheaper styles, and with deep hem.
 A smart costume has three-quarter length coat, half fitting and perfectly plain skirt, no strapped seams of machine stitching, while another favorite style, more popular although not quite so smart, Is in plaits both skirt and coat. There is a narrow belt of either white or black leather worn slipped under the plalts in front of the coat to give rather longer lines Both the side paits and the box plalts are fashionable and of differ ent widths, and there are some few skirts that have the false plaIts circular in shape In themselves and then with the plaits stitched on. The blouse waist of fine lawn or of plain linen Is worn with these skirts and coats and there is one style that Is ex- ceedlngly plain of white linen, quite fine, with only hem stitched cuff and stock col lar that is, very pretty and becoming and has the advantage that 1t launders very we'll; for many of these fine waists do not wash well and really require to be cleaned.
 White India silk Is a delightfully."- cool ma terial for a tennis gown and on the shirt waist order The gowns are also made of In fla silk and with a long coat to match that can easily be donned when the game Is over, and the whole gown itself can be aundered as well as can the linen or pique. The mohair and serge gowns have the coats lined with India silk and are intended to wear in cooler weather. The pique linen and duck have no lining. oddly enough, the homespun coats are all lined that is, the smartest of them
The Birmingham age-herald., 1903-08-02

are. But th.s probably is because homespun has way of pulling that causes coat to lose shape easily, something much to be awarded, if possible.
 The model of the skirt that has many gores that toward the foot flare and have addi- tlonal material put on is rather a fayorite one, and If more trimmed skirt Is desired this can be made more elaborate by straps of the material fastened with buttons just above where the flare begins at each seam. Then the strapped linen costumes can be further elaborated by rows of machine stitch Ing, This, however. Is more noticeable h the colored linens than in the white.
 There are quite number of smart outing gowns in mixed effects, the homespun al ready mentioned the chevlots and the col ored linens. They are All made on the same lines as the white, with long coats or the three-quarter length. There are very few with short jackets. The skirts are plain or plaited, and have no trimming. and are to be worn with either the embroidered or plain style of shirt waist.
 For every day use, or when economy has to be consulted as regards laundering, the darker ones are the most economical and can be made very smart and becoming But II must be admitted that the all-white have for the moment the leading pace In favor
