 TOO EARLY YET.
 St Petersburg, Oct 11.-Prince Svi- .atopolk, Mirsky. minister of the in terior, reiterates, according to the re- port of an interview with him pub lished in the Russ, his statement to the Associated Press that it is too early as yet to attempt to formulate the policy of the ministry of the in terior, but repeats that much is to be expected from the intelligent use of the zemstvos. The minister adds that hse hopes ultimately to decentralize the method of dealing with these com munities so as to give each of them the benefit of their own knowledge or local conditions, as they are naturally more competent to manage their af- fairs to their advantage than is the St Petersburg government, which often has no knowledge of the local conditions that exist.

NEW USE FOR OLD CUPS.
Are Just the Thing for the Mayon. naise Dressing Thinks
 Housewife.

The ingenious woman has discovered . new use for her old-fashioned cups and odd cups. They have long been good for nothing In particular on account of their large size and because they have no handles. Yet these big cups are ex- actly the shape of many of the mayor. naise dishes, and may be used to ad- vantage for this purpose. says the Washington Star.
 With the preaching of the doctrines of salads by the apostles of good health there has been an increasing use of let tnce, celery. tomatoes. cucumbers and vegetables of different kinds served cold with dressings. In consequence the mayonnaise cup has become staple article of table service. Many people prefer the French dressing to the rich or mayonnaise; some larger quanti- ty than others. It is advisable to have dish of dressing upon the table, in- stead of dressing the individual salad beforehand.
 The dishes made for holding mayon- naise are to be found in different shapes. Some are oblong, like small sauce boats with fiat rather than looped ham, dle at the end. Others are round like cups. They will all hold perhaps half pint, and the saucers to match are round or oblong, according to the shape of the dish. The round dishes are noth- ing more or less than large cups.
 The woman who makes the most of everything utilizes cups that she has or picks up at the bargain table, and has an up-to-date article of table service with little or no expense.

STYLISH HOME GOWNS.
Popular Materials and Designs fol Evening and Reception
 Wear.

Lace gowns are thought exceedingly Smart for reception wear, and can be either all black or all white, while there are some most attractive models in the black lace over white or colored lin- ing, says Harper's Bazar. Black and white effects, however, are not thought 80 smart as they were. Black, white or colored crepe de chine, crepe de Paris and the various weaves of crepe are much in demand for reception gowns, but are made up with so much lace that there does not seem to be any reason for calling them crepe de chine gowns.
 The odd lowered taffeta silks in the light and most peculiar of shadings are also in style, with plaited or flounced skirts One model of pale mauve and pink changeable taffeta with founcs skirt has each flounce edged With the daintiest lowered ribbon not over an inch and half wide Soft flchus of chiffon edged with lace ruffies and el- bow sleeves finished also with lace soften and make more becoming the rather hard lines that the taffeta some- times possesses in these cold shades of coloring.
 An all-white gown Is the smartest for reception wear, and can be in light weight cloth. embroidered silk, crepe de chine, chiffon or batiste. It may be on severely plain lines or elaborate in ef- feet, with bands of lace, embroidery or fancy trimming. Only one point is to be strictly insiste-4 on-it must be be- coming.

 Four shooters tied for the medal on the first shoot, each breaking 46 out of a possible 50. They were l.. B. Knott of Arka- delphia, w. w. Brown of Pine Bluff, E. c. Arnold of Camden and Col.

THERMOMETER TALES.
One Patient Sucked the Little Instru- aent and Another Thought It
 Was . Drink.

To people who are fortunately unfa- miliar with sickness the thermometers used in taking the temperature of pa- tients are always source of consider able interest. A professional nurse whose experience has led her to numer- ous localities and brought her in con- tact with many phases of life tells two stories which illustrate the foregoing statement, says the New York Times
 In one of the local hospitals she had a male patient who was threatened witk a run of fever. As she approached his bedside one morning he querulously complained of lack of nourishment.
 T didn't get enough to eat," he said. T feel almost starved"
 'sWell. well.' she said, soothingly. I've will see about that. Here" she added, 'let me put this in your mouth. ]"
 She inserted the thermometer be- tween his teeth and turned away mo- ment When she looked back he was working the bulb around between his jaws at great rate.
 Hold on!" she cried, you will break tn6 tnormOmeJeT!
 He drew in his cheeks and apparently gave mighty pull on the little instru- ment, and then she removed 1t.
 Say" he grumbled, there's no use giving me that. couldn't suck blame thing out of 1t"
 Another patient, woman, begged the nurse for drink.
 
 Wait" said the nurse, and thrust the thermometer in her mouth.
 The patient lay back on her pillow and placidly closed her eyes. A satisfied ex- pression slowly stole over her face. When the time was up the nurse with drew the tube.
 Why" said the patient, with sigh of qualification, "what lot of good 8 little thing like that will do you!"

Septem- Der II has been set apart as Ar kansas Day at the big fair and great preparations are under way to make it one of the great est days in the history of the state. On September 12 the state of Illinois will hold its state ceremonies at St. Louis, and it was suggested by one of the H. linois board that the two days be merged into one grand affair, so to speak, and for 8 time this proposition was looked upon with favor by members of the Arkan- sas Board until it was ascer- tained that negro guardsmen were to march in line on Illinois day.
