Pipings are more than ever the
style, and. to pipe a gown with blue
and white, is a pretty sure way to
secure its general style. The little
line of white gives it neatness and
finish, while the blue gives it the re-
quired note of color.

Sand and Froaf.

In opening a Keene o.. H. street to
get at q frozen water pipe something
like two feet OF frozen earth was first
removed and under this over a foot of
dry sand was shoveled out as easily as
it would be in summer time. Beneath
this sand a different soil was found.
and this lower stratum was frozen to
a depth OF over FIVE feet from the sur
face. a layer of dry sand a foot or
more in thickness underneath a heavy
upper crust is usually a sufficient pro-
lection from frost.

Food Adulteration.

State Chemist Walker Of Nebraska

catchup was found which was made
from tomatoes and was not artificially

the basis of all the others, and the col

dyes. Alleged strawberry jam in a
number of cases he found was made
chiefly from pumpkin, colored with
coal tar dyes and containing a pre-
