Pretty Weddings,

Color effect is greatly studied nova,

result is often delightful. Red and

with desirable result, and the little

Roses for Hat Trimmings,

"A good ostrich fall makes a good
flower spring" is an old saying with
milliners, and the spring of 1904 will
bear out the truth Of this statement.
Roses promise to take the lead. The
tiny button variety, in single and dou-
BILE garlands, edge the brims, encircle
the crowns or otherwise trim the hats.
Medium size roses are used as garni-
ture in single or double wreaths. and
large roses are often used singly.
When the large flower is employed
tiny green leaves bordering the brims

Utilizing Coal Dust.

There has recently been a number
of experiments made to find a fuel
which should be not only much clean
, er than coal, but which should also
increase the number OF heat units
for given bulk of material. says the
Philadelphia Public Ledger. The ele-
ments of cost of manufacture and
shipment must also enter into all
these calculations. SO that what will
meet requirements in one locality is
totally untitled for another To pre-
vent the waste of the sawdust from
the large mills which are cutting down
our forests sawdust and petroleum
briquette has been produced, and
other seemingly waste products have
been combined with chemicals to fit
them for use as fuel. Thus the i'm
mense piles of culm dust to be seen
around the mouths of the coal mines
have come in for their share OF at
tention. One of the newest chemical
combinations which utilzes this ma
terial in large proportion comes from

coal dust and black oxide of maugan-

an hour at temperature of 200 de-

Ice BicycJe,

All the pleasures Of sleighing and
of bicycling might have been combin.
ed in a curious freak ice wheel had it
been wholly successful. The odd look.
ing vehicle, which was con,riyed
years ago, was mounted on runners
which were intended to glide over the
ice or snow swiftly and smoothly like
an ordinary sleigh. The motive power
was supplied by an ordinary yeloci-
pede or bicycle mechanism. The reyo.
luton of the wheel forced a series
of sprockets to dig rapidly into the
snow or ice, thus propelling the con.
triyance.

Washington. Oct q. - Wheat exports
from the United States seem likely to
reach in the current year their lowest

through its Bureau Of Statistics, show ex-
ports during the nine months ending with
September of less than 100000 bushels.

months of 1900; &c, eco coo in the correspond
ing months OF 1902 and 139 900 900 in the
corresponding months OF 1901:
Thus the expectation of wheat in the
nine months ending with September is but
one-flfth that of the corresponding months
of 1903. about One-tenth that of the corre-
spending months of 1902. and but about
one-fourteenth as much as that OF the
corresponding months OF 1901.
Even the flour exports are beginning to
show the effect of the great shortage In
the wheat supply available for exporta-

10000 barrels. speaking in round terms,

During the last decade -four exports for

exported during the decade has never fall

nine months period and ranged from that
amount to about 900 bushels for the

A comparison OF the wheat and flour
exports from 1894 to 1901 shows that in av-

greatly from the quantity exported as
