FOR WEE BABES CLOTHES.
Dainty Receptacle for Them Nay b
Made at Home and at Small
Expense.

The writer recently assisted a young
mother in making the daintiest of recep-
tacles in which to keep the fairy gar
ments of the little baby. OF course the
clothes hampers are very desirable, but
they are also very expensive. More than
this, such a hamper is not of much use
after a baby is grown-two reasons
why we had to think of something else.
says New York Herald contributor.
We made two receptacles for the
clothes, one from a large size shirt waist
box and the other from a worn out
steamer trunk. The trunk was brought
downstairs from the attic and thorough
" aired. The canvas with which 1t was
lined received a scrubbing with soap
and water. When this had dried the en-
tire inside of the trunk, cover and all,
was papered with a delicate wall paper.

covered with punches Of forget-me-not

glue water, which made the paper stick
perfectly. This work was not hurried.
the paper being matched perfectly, and
the whole thing set away in the attic
where 1t could dry in cool place.
The outside of the trunk We covered
with a dark green denim having very
dark conventional design, and all around
the edge we drove tacks having short
pins but very large brass heads. The
hinges Of the trunk were hopeless, so we

hinges and put these on over some
hinges Of stout leather. In one end OF
the trunk we tied tray made by COW
ering a pasteboard box with pale blue
silk. A soft cushion was placed on the
bottom of the tray, and this was scented
with a mixture of dried orange bios
SONS, orris and violet, which is a del
icate and delicious perfume. At the
other end we made long pin cushion,
also scented and tied in place with rib
bon like the tray.
On the inside of the trunk cover We
made some little pockets for bits of abb
sorbent cotton, old linen and a case for
bibs. In this trunk are kept all the un-
derclothes and everyday dresses-all the
baby's wardrobe except the best dresses.
best bootees and best little wool jackets.
The other receptacle. In which We
placed all the best things, including
baby's best bonnet, we made from the
shirt waist box. These boxes are sold
at the large shops at reasonable price.

the same pretty paper. but left the out
side, which Stimulates leather as well as
paper can, just as it was when bought.
A long sachet of pale blue cheese-cloth
of fine quality keeps the contents Of this
box delicately scented. These sachets
are most essential, since no one dreams
of using the faintest liquid perfume on
dear little baby. From long and not
very narrow brand new market basket
we made the baby basket" by painting
with white enamel and then lining it
with pretty blue. over which cover Of
dotted muslin was put ON full. In this
basket are kept all the little articles that
will be needed in making baby's daily
toilet, and nearly every day we think Of
some new thing to add to the collection.

CAUSE OF FLATFooTEDNEss
Children Likely to Become Afflicted in
This Way Through Wearing
Spring Heels.

Flatf0Otedness may or may not be In
creasing among the moderns, but it has
at last brought out some very interesting
theories Is to why it should be prevalent.
says the New York Post. Sandow got
fiatfooted from lifting heavy weights, ac-
cording to the opinion Of DIR. Sargent, Of
Harvard. Children are likely to be af-
flicted in this way when they wear spring
heels, for.the bones OF the instep, in the
case Of young people, depend for keeping
their place upon adequate support Of the
heel. Fat children find themselves be-
coming fatfooted because of the abnor-
NAL weight the feet have to sustain.
Poor feeding OF the child tends to make
it fatfooted, for the bones Of the foot re-
quire plenty of lime to make them iirm
and strong. Poor feeding leads to rick
cts" as well as Indebtedness, though
the physician who says it does not stop
to explain ricketts,. What used to be
called rheumatism Of the feet now turns
out to be Indebtedness. Persons who 20
barefooted all the time are said never to
get the trouble, so we are led to believe
that II We wear shoes At all we are apt to
become as the big policeman or the
mythical Chicago girl.

Business and Government
By HON. JOHN G. SCHURMAN.
President of Cornell University.

XCEPT in great crises like the civil war, the bust
ness interests of the country have eftectualy con-
trolled the country. l sometimes think, however,
that business interests may not in the future
retain the same legitimate preponderance over the
policies of our government which they have IN the
past Hitherto the business interests of the coun-
try have been. if not identical with, at any rate
substantially identified with the interests OF the
general public.

THE AUTOMOBILE DERBY
 ON THE FLORIDA BEACH.

Birmingham owners of motor cars Will be interested in the arrangements for the automobile tourney on the Florida beach. Drivers all over the country will take part and the event will from all indica- tions be the most successful of any auto mobile derby yet held in the south.
 The following special from Daytona gives the programme:
 Arrangements for the third information al automobile tournament on the famous Ormond- -Daytona beach course are now being rapidly arranged Drivers from all over the United States, and from Europe as we'll, have signified their intention of taking part in what has become known as the blue ribbon automobile event of the year.
 President Charles G. Burgoyne of the Florida East Coast Automobile associa- tion, under whose auspices the tourna- ments are given, arrived in New York last week to confer with w. J. Morgan, the representative of the association, in regard to the final arrangements of the programme of races and other matters which go to make up complete tourna- ment. MT. Burgoyne declares that the third annual automobile derby will be the greatest yet seen in Florida, as the la nous beach is in prime condition, and the record of thirty-nine seconds for the mile, made on the coast by w. K. Van derbilt, Jr., last winter, will in all prob- ability receive an eclipse before the tour nament Is over, as it must be remem- bered that MT. Vanderbilt only had 80 horse power while some of the new machines will have as high as 12O horse power. It Is thought by experts that figures as low as thirty-five sec onds may be made between the dates Of January 2S and 2S of the 1905 tournament. MT Burgoyne is very enthusiastic over the new club house that his association has built on the beach, which will be used in entertaining visitors at the tour nament this winter.
 The programme of races, twenty-five in number. is already completed. and will take care of machines costing as low as $65O and as high as S15,000. The principal races will be the 100 miles for the Van derbit trophy, presented by w K. Van derbilt, Jr Almost equal in importance will be the mile international record for the Sir Thomas R. Dewar trophy. The eighty mile open to American cars only will also provide a great race. Another important event will be the ten-mile American derby, which will be a sweep stake race. and the only strictly profess sional race or cash race in the pro- gramme. There will be four days of racing and two days of record breaking.
 Sir Thomas R. Dewar, M A, who has large stable of automobiles, and who is often a motoring companion of King Edward of England, will be present at the referees of the races.
