NATURE SPARES.
The Strickel

The Stricken Rose From Grief.
What q fortunate provision of ma
ture It is that deprivcs the rose of
mental suffering; for how poigant
would be its grief to discover, in the
height of its blooming glory, that
canker fed at its heart, and that its
beauty and fragrance were doomed
forever Nature always spares the
suffering; she is d veritable store
house of pleasing rewards, for those
who seek her aid. In the years gone
by falling hair and grayness have cast
a gloom over the lives of thousands of
young women. but thanks to the in
designations of scientists the true cause
of hair destruction is now known 20
be a germ or parasite that burrows
into the hair follicies. Newbro's
Herpicile absolutely destroys this
germ, thus permitting the hair to grow
as nature intended. Sold by leading

WITH HER HOOK AND cREwELs,
Crocheting Is Again a Diversion for
the Up-to Date Woman's Odd
Moments.

The pendulum of fashion has again
swung back in favor of home made
crocheted things, and consequently.
crochet hooks, yarns and threads are
once more considered patrician. Won,
en- sit in the sun parlors of country
clubs and hotels, and chat and gos-
sip as they crochet daintily colored
floss.
No woman's wardrobe is considered
complete nowadays without a sweater
and if she makes it herself so much
the better. This garment has evolved
by degrees from a long tight-fitting
masculine affair, donned by way of the
head, to Il deCOrOuS up-to-da blouse
which is stylish enough to wear any
where. There are green and red golf
sweaters. white tennis sweaters, red
automobile sweaters, and all colors TO
wear under the coat to give added
warmth Each sweater has its own
style, and may be fashioned simply or
as deliberately as the maker chooses.
With the revival of crocheting comes
the fashion for crocheted button COW
ers. not only for sweaters, but for
shirt waists and gowns. Some of the
patterns for these covers are beautiful,
and, in spite of the intricacy of their
appearance. IneN are easily made. Inc
foundation is an ordinary button or n
button mold of the desired taste: the
covering is of crochet silk, cotton or
yarn. Shoe buttons make excellent
foundations for the tiny black silk
crocheted buttons. which are made in
star pattern. These buttons are either
simple or elaborate. White silk is
used.
Crocheters have open to them still
another field of opportunity in GRO
cheting the medallions which are Sc
Fashionable for gown decoration. These
are made of filmy silk thread. crochet
silk linen, or cotton thread. or even OF
yarns, since wool medallons and laces
are in vogue. These medallions are not
only in black and white. but in colors
as well. since colored laces have be-
come the rage.
TOboggan caps. with pompons. such
as were worn ten years ago, with a few
notifications. and rainbow scarfs and
shawls, are among the other crocheted
things that are once more in style.
Tatting, the old-time fancy work OF
fifty years ago. is also quite the fad
but it takes nimble and delicate fling
ers to do il we'll. Exquisite work beau
tiful rs cobwcb lace, often original in
design, can be made with no more ex-
pensive materials than a shuttle and a
spool of finest cotton.

Conors Iulations.

Mr.. John H. Cullom, Editor of the
Garland, Texas. News, has written a
letter of congratulations to the man
ufacturers of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy, as follows: sixteen years
ago when our first child was baby
he was subject to croupy spells and
we would be very uneasy about him.
We began using Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy in 1881 and finding it such a
relia bic remedy for colds and Group, we
have never been without it in the house
since that time. We have five children
and have given it To all of them with
coed results. One good feature of this
remedy is that it is not disagreeablc
to take and our babies really like it.
Another is that it is not dangerous, and
there is no risk from giving an over
dose. l congratulate you upon the sue
cess of your remedy" For sale by all

GRANITE LOCKOUT ENDED.
Three Thousand Granite Cutters Returned to
Work Yesterday.

Montpelier, Dec. 2l.-The difficulty
between the stone cutters OF North
field and the +. B. Ellis Granite CO.,
which resulted in the strike of the cut
ters there December - and later in the
lockout of the cutters by the manu-
facturers in Barre, Montpelier, North
field, Williamstown, Waterbury and
Hardwick has been settled and all the
sheds were open for work this morning,
The manufacturers declared the lock-
out ended at 2 o'clock last evening.
The settlement came through the
committee from the National Stone
cutters Union to whom the matter
was referred by the local unions for
decision. The national union held that
shops of the f. b. Ellis Granite Co..
shall be "open," which means that Mr.
Ellis has the sanction of the union in
hiring any union men he chooses and
as soon as he likes. If the men who
struck in Mortified choose to go back
to work and it is congenial TO Mr.
Ellis they can do so, if not Mr. Ellis
can hire elsewhere from the union
ranks. The decision of the national
union was announced in open meeting
and by close vote it was decided to
return to work.
