DUCHESS IN sLUMs.
White chapel, the Most DeErad-
ed Part of London.

The rich and handsome dowager
duchess of Newcastle, who lives by
preference in Whitechapel, London's
worst slum, has at last consented to
tell the story of her slum life. She's
not intellectual, at least she says she
isn't. but she tells good story of
her home in Whitechapel in the cur
rent number of the Pail Mall maya
zine, and, furthermore, she has given
us few pleasant opportunities to
see how she lives. Her grace says
among other things that she thinks
there is more morality on the White
chapel side of London than in the
West end. She says she never be-
gan to know the value of money I'M
til she moved from Mayfair. She
thinks it would do society good if
they'd give up comfort for part of
their time and see how high their in
come seemed when spent in White
chapel, on Whitechapel proportions.
The duchess is an English edition
of Jane Adams. Philanthropy has
found in her grace an ardent advo-
cate. When she forsook society for
the poor, the duchess was thought Of
merely as beautiful and rich wom-
an. Ten years of Whitechapel life
have shaken her up considerably, and
the English have begun to take her
seriously.
While Miss Adams is student of
economics, the duchess is urging peo-
pie to go to mass. She visits the sick
and befriends the orphan. Commit
tees galore claim her grace as a men,
Der, and she's very much in with the
clergy of the Catholic church. Even
the pope recognizes in the widow of
the late duke of Newcastle a valiant
ally, and when she visits her daugh-
ter Princess Doria, in Rome, as she
is doing now, all sorts of favor IS
shown to her in high places. all Of
which is very different from Miss

How to Make kalsOm in e.

One pound of uncolored gela tine
glue, as free from grease as possible,
is soaked over night in cold water suffi-
cient to cover the glue. Thirty pounds
of English cliffstone Paris white, bolt
ed or best bolted gilders' whiting, is
also soaked in sufficient water to make
a paste over night and next morning
both are heated with steam or over a
moderate fire in water bath to the
boiling point and when the glue is fully
dissolved the two materials are thor
ouchly mixed. In summer time on
cooling, small portion of carbolic
acid. say about one-eighth Of an
ounce. diluted with water, is added for
each pound of glue used in the afore-
said formula to keep it from souring,
and in this way the kalsomine will
keep for some weeks. 1t is said that
the workmen rather like this prepare
ton. because of its good working prop
erties.-Painter's Magazine.

w. j. Hill, of 40 South Union Street,
Concord, N. c., proprietor of hardware
and harness store, Justice OF the Peace,
and one of the best known residents OF
that city, says: "Doan's Kidney Pills
proved q very efficient remedy in my
case. L got box at the Gibson Drug
Store and used them for disordered
kidneys and backache from which had
experienced great deal of annoyance,
trouble and pain. The kidney score"
lions had bothered me for long while,
were very irregular, dark colored and
full of sediment. The Pills cleared 1t
all up and have not had an ache in my
back since taking the last dose. MY
back is much stronger and my health
generally is improved a great deal. ]
am glad to make public endorsement
of the Pills trusting that it may be
the means of relieving some other
sufferer"

BABY'S FIRST CRADLE,
An Idea from France Which Desc rv:Ss
to BE Adopted by Young
American Mothers.

When baby first comes to reign in
nursery land, don't put him into a
cradle right away for his 20 hours OF
sleep day! The custo1 that tho
French have of providing a dainty
bassinet is not only a pretty idea,
but practical one as well. The bas-
sinet can be placed where one wishes,
and it's depths of luxurious comfort
prevent all danger of draught.
A pretty homemade bassinet can
be made out of an ordinary clothes
basket. Make the lining by quilting,
with thin layer of cotton between
two thicknesses of any soft material;
then fasten this in place around the
inner sides by baby ribbons, sewed at
intervals and fastened to the wicker
work of the bassinet. -.
The handles can be wound with rib
bon and tied with a finishing bow,

Adams, far removed as her life is
from Journalism.
But the two are in some ways alike.
The duchess is much older than Miss
Adams, although she looks nearer
40 than 60. In expression, these
women resemble each other closely.
They seem to have abs orbed the same
calming influences from their contact
with the slums. In fresh coloring
they are alike and in full figure,
while I was struck by their similar
ity of taste in dress. The last time
I saw Miss Adams she wore q Sc
verely plain tailor-made gown, from
which the duchess might easily have
copied the dress she has had on
every time I have met her. The Eng
lishwoman and the American are
both simple of manner and gentle
voiced. Each is fired by the same mo-
tive-an overwhelming sympathy for
the worlds under dog.
The dowager duchess of Newcas site
has been twice married. Her second
husband, a musician and a man with
out title, died before her grace
went into philanthropy. She kept
her title by courtesy. It's title, by
the way, that May Yohe might one
day have had if she had stuck by
Lord Francis Hope. For Lord Francis
is heir to the present duke of New
castle and is the younger son of the
woman who looks like Jane Adams.
Journalism is a fad with most Of
the Newcastlers. The little lame
duke is a high church Anglican, al
most a Roman Catholic, like his
mother, who left the Enelis church
to go to Rome. The chapel attached
to Clumber,, the family Llace in the
north of England. is the finest private
place Of worship in England, but the
uninit:ated would think it Roman
Catholic, not Anglican. The duke has
some democratic tendencies. For in
stance, he taught his little nephew's
governess to ride the bicycle, and
trotted along beside her day by day
regardless Of the weather. The pu-
pill, moreover, was neither young nor
beautiful. His grace was merely
kind.-Lady Mary, in Chicago Chron-
icle.

THEY LACKED TACT.
Trae Stories Of Two Women VINO
Made Remarks That Had Better
Been Left Unsaid.

A woman who would consult her
husband on his deathbed as to what
mourning she would wear for him
might fairly be pronounced lacking in
tact. You agree with me? l should
not hesitate to say that she had not
proved herself Il perfect wife. Mon
strous!" I hear you say. Yet this
really occurred the other day. The
woman in question belongs to that
class in which reticence is quality
almost unknown, and in which argu-
ments are conducted by means of
lighted paraffine lamps and sharp
edged tenders. Think of the poor
man clinging to life and cherishing
hope that he would get better, and be-
ing plunged into an abyss of desolation
by the wife of his bosom murmuring
tenderly in his ear: THE doctor says
YOU are too far gone to recover, AIRY.
What sort of a Widows bonnet shall l
buy?"
Several instances of want of tact
have come before me lately. One was
the case of wife who had gone abroad
and sent home foreign postcard to
the following effect:
"Safcly arrived, and have just en-
joyed the first well-cooked meal
have had for months"
Her husband wrote to her:
what madness possessed you to
write what you did on postcard? You
have bitterly exasperated my mother
and her cook, and the house is in such
turmoil in consequence that l am
most uncomfortable"
The peccant wife's reply was this:
81 can't forgive myself, and l am
sure you will never forgive me for
writing that idiotic postcard. You will
scarcely believe me when 1 tell you
that writing in Germany, as I did,
some ridiculous idea possessed me that
a postcard in English could not be I'M
derstood, forgetting that its destina-
ton was England."- London Truth.

Il has been estimated that between 5000.
900 and le,OOO, 600 persons in the United
States tako vacation every summer. Iney
spend between $aOO,OOO,O0O and $500, OUO,-

great deal of money to spend during va

the low railroad rates offered by the Chiea-

From July to 10 this line will sell tickets

I,ift,e Trick Worth Knowing,

Hickorynut cake is deservedly a ia
vorite among sweets, but it is not
every cook who cares to spend the
time required for shelling the nuts.
A little trick that is worth knowing
in this connection is this: If boiling
water is poured over the nuts and the
latter allowed to remain immersed
for 20 minutes before cracked it will
be an easy matter to extract the nut
meats.

Old Railroad Ticket Ii Now . Gu.
riOsity.

Mrs. Laura E. Howey, librarian Of the
State Historical society, of Montana has re.
ceived from G. Z. Reese, of Virginia City,
one of the tickets used in the cary COS on
the stage lines of Montana. 1t is from Nlr-
Rinia City to New York, issued by the Wells
Fargo company, the fare at that time being
$50. The ticket is composed OF eight
coupons. :, =.
The first is by stage, supposedly to Salt
Lake, there being left a blank space to be
filled in. From there it is over the Union
Pacific railroad to Omaha, by omnibus to
Council Bluffs and from there to Chicago
over the Chicago & Northwestern Railway.
From Chicago the ticket is over the Pitts
burg. Fort Wayne & Chicago to Pittsburg
and from Pittsburg to Harrisburg over the
PENNSYLVANIA Central. From the latter
place to New York the ticket calls for pas
sage over the Allentown line to New York.

The spelling by freezing of large
part of the corn which they had raised
for seed corn is a severe loss to a num-
Der of Milford farmers. Owing to, the
backward summer season of 1908 this
corn did not dry out as early as usual
and much Of 1t had not been picked,
but was drying very nicely when the
present cold weather came on. This
froze the corn and ruined it for seed
purposes. Seed corn is very high this
year and having their crop ruined at
this late hour Is bad disappointment
to those who are losers.
