BITS OF FASHION.
Dainty tribes That Lend Attractivo-
ness to the Costumes OF
the Season.

The loose coats are all shorter than
of late years, says fashion authority.
Very large, handsome buttons Of old
silver, dull gold, or enamel are some
times the only note Of ornament or color
upon box coat.
d-fashioned Grape Isle Is used for
the greater part OF the neck ruchiags
for costumes of heavy fabric.
Trimmings on evening skirts this
year are noticeably toward the middle
of the garment. The lower edge is often
finished with simple hem few inches
in width.
Chiffon lends itself so admirably to
the present treatment of evening
sleeves that it is often used for this
purpose in gowns of net, lace, crepe
de chine or other materials.
Tulle, net mousseline, chiffon, crepe
de chine, crepe de Paris and lace are
favorites for ball gowns. The demand
for these fabrics has brought out
number of lovely novelties in tulle.
White gloves are not very much worn
on the street in the morning, tans,
grays and reds having superseded them.
Driving gloves of suede with dogskin
palms are novelty.

Honest Praise.

Praise is good for all those who are
honestly striving for their betterment,
but Injurious praise is worse than
none. The friend who says to us: II
do like that, and l think you are i'm
proving in your work, and | want to
see you go right on" and says it hon
estly and sincerely-well, it may not
sound so sweet to our ears, but it
great deal more than the one
who says: "You are genius-oh,
your talent is beyond words, you are,
etc, etc" Praise should inspire us,
not make us content with ourselves.
1t should play the role Of tabasco
sauce, rather than chocolate caramel.
And little of either of these is good.

DISTRIBUTION OF SEEDS.
COngressman Sheppard Advocates
Involve Useless Expenditures.

Representative Sheppard, OF Texas,
has introduced a resolution providing a
change in the method of seed distribu-
ton at the department of agriculture.
The resolution directs that "the present
indiscriminate and inequitable distribu-
tion Of vegetable seeds by the depart
ment of agriculture be discontinued,
and that the secretary of agriculture be
requested to submit to congress plans
restoring the original purpose of the
seed dist ribution, which contemplated
the Introduction of new varieties in va
rious localities and the determination OF
their adaptability to the soil, but which
farcical allotment throughout the coun-
try, regardless ct the character of the
soils and industries of the respective
communities and the occupations and
pursuits of the people thereof, and sug-
costing other ways, such as soil surveys,
good roads, determination of pests, en-
couragement of horticulture, establish
ment of experimental farms, cultivation
of early maturing cotton seed, dissem-
ination of valuable agricultural litera-
ture, and such other methods as may
suggest themselves by which the large
amount heretofore appropriated in the
useless manner above described may be
expended more logically and more eff
fectively in the interests of the agricul-
tural masses Of the United States"

CARE OF THE EARS.
Some Rules which should he Care.
fully Observed by Parents of
Young Children.

In the proper care of the ears in
childhood two things have to be con-
sidered-the local conditions of the
ears, and, what is equally important,
the general state of the child's health,
says Youths Companion.
AS to the cure of the cor itself, 1t
must always be remembered that the
hearing apparatus is a piece of very
delicate mechanism, no more suited to
rough treatment than is the ball of the
eye. It can be easily injured by the in
PRODUCTION of foreign body, or by a
blow from the outside. Small children
sometimes push things into their ears
by way of experiment. In this case
the child's guardians should keep per-
fectly cool. and send for q physician at
once. The child must not be shaken
and punished until the object is re-
moved, and above all the nurse or
mother must not grope for it with
hairpin or tweezers, for that is the way
to push it farther in, or to wound or
even rupture the delicate drum mem
brane-an accident which may be fol-
lowed by complete deafness, and even
death, should serious Inflammation
ensue.
There is perhaps one exception to
this rule OF leaving a foreign body
alone until the doctor comes. Occa-
sionally insects fly into the ear, and
cause great anguish by buzzing and
futtering about. They can be speedily
disposed of by dropping in a little
sweet oil or lukewarm salt water.
AS to injury from the outside, chill
dren should be carefully guarded
against any games which include loud
shoutings directly into the ear, and it
is surely needless to add that pulling
the ears and, above all, boxing the
ears as a form of punishment should
be held criminal offense. 1t may in
duce partial and temporary deafness,
complete deafness. and even death.
and if INDUCED in by teacher should
be followed by arrest and public re-
buke
The care of the general health as
1t affects the hearing is most important
in young children, particularly as re-
CARDS the subject of ventilation, espe-
cially at night. Many children who
get enough fresh air in the daytime
are kept half suffocated at night.
Nursery windows must be kept open,
nurses must not be allowed to close
ventilators without permission, each
child should have its separate cot,
placed out of the draft, but with good
wide breathing space all around it.
and the more signs child gives of
being constitutionally disposed to ear
trouble the more stringent should be
the observance of these rules.

FOR FEMININE wEARERs.
The latest in Belts and Stocks Are
Striking and Handsome
Novelties.

The new stocks and belts possess the
distinguishing characteristic of being
novel. They are really and truly differ
snt from any ever seeA before and they
are less expensive than one expects to
find them.
The most fashionable belts, just at the
moment, are made of skin of one kinder
another. The very wide suede belt,
which is crushed down Ground the fig
ure and which fastens with big leath-
er buckle in front, is one of the best
of belts, and, as it comes in a great va
riety of colors, one can always find
something to suit, says the Brooklyn
Eagle.
But a more spectacular belt is the
calfskin belt, with the hair left on. A,
belt of this kind was about three inches
wide in the back, tapering a little to-
ward the front, where it fastened with
little round brass buckle. The color
was reddish brown, regular calf
color, with white places upon 1t. The
hair was short and il rubbed the right
way felt very silky.
A very neat belt is the pigskin belt,
and there are all the crushable kid belts
of the year, dyed in red and green, brown
and black
The popular taste runs just at present
toward the belt which must be crushed
down in the back, for it is too wide to
fit the waist. The front is cut taper
Ing. This belt is hooked around the
waist, is fastened low in front and is
pushed down as far as possible, for the
low front is still the vogue. The back
and sides take on little natural wrinkles
until waist is formed, 1t is important
to put the belt on carefully the first time,
for the creases will remain Just as they
were at first.
The stocks are departing from their
simplicity, for they show the oldest of
features. Many are partly of fur and
there are stocks that are made Of silk,
while velvet strap goes over the silk
and hooks in front.
The Armenian belts and stocks are
wonderfully conspicuous, and consist of
linen embroidered in many colors.
AO"C VI luCu d1c d. V1N1u DIS 6OA6COuo
silks can make them and are carried
out with degree Of native fidelity that
is surprising. The embroidering Of a
handsome belt makes fascinating piece
of fancy work, and the woman with time
on her hands and skill In her finger tips
can get busy on this very useful piece
of industry.
Old-fashioned canvas 10 used agnin
for belts, and wonderful patterns are
worked in the canvas with the outside
filling in the pattern-done in bright
silks or in beads. The bead belts have
by no means gone out and the new ones
are prettier than the old Particularly
good are the Apache belts, which are
made in the most intricate designs.
There are few sealskin belts to
match the sealskin cloaks, but this
makes the waist too bulky for beauty.

Lard for Pastry.

Lard is much nicer for pastry, and.
indeed, for every purpose for which it
is used, if, when 1t is rendered, it is
mixed with suet in the proportion of
one-third suet to two-thirds lard. Suet
cannot be rendered in water, but
should be placed in dripping pan and
set in the oven to bake out The lard
and suet should then be put together
before they are strained.-Orange Judd

To Save street Car Men.

Fifty temperance women OF the North
and West sides of Chicago have organ
lied to open club rooms for street car
men, with the idea of attracting en-
ployes from the saloons. The plan is to
rent rooms in the vicinity of each car
barn. where the railroad men can rest
while off duty. The only place of resort
they at present have Is the back room
of some saloon.

ACTION BY COURT

Colorado Supreme Bench Throws
Out Denver Ballots and Re-
publicans Win.

Denver, Dec. 17.-Chief Justice Gil
bert today announced the decision of
the supreme court to throw out the
entire vote of three precincts Of ward
five and one precinct of ward seven at
the late election, on the ground that
gross frauds were committed in direct
violation of the injunction served upon
the election. of officials. Judge Camp
bell concurred in the decision, but
Judge Steele dissented. ~ - ''s
The decision does not affect the votes
for president and congressman.
The republicans will thus secure a
solid delegation Of the legislature from
the city and county Of Denver, and will
obtain control of both branches Of the
legislature which canvasses the vote
for state officers.
On the face Of the returns, Alva
Adams, democratic candidate for gov
ernor, had a plurality Of about IL, 900,
but the republican managers assert
that when all fraudulent votes are
eliminated Governor Peabody will have
plurality and will be reseated.
