EMPEROR WILLIAM PLANS
PALATIAL STEAM YACHT.

BERLIN, August 19.-Emperor William is
considering plans for new steam yacht.
The Hohenzollern, which was originally the
cruiser Aviso. never had the conven;ences
of modern yacht. The cruising life of
vessels of the Aviso class is fifteen years.
and as she was built in 1892 she would nat
urally be retired from the frst-class ef-
fective list in 1907. She will probably be
used as a naval hospital ship. The en-
peror received plans for a new yacht from
an English designer. and from these a
miniature model yacht has been construct
ed at the imperial navy yard at Kiel The
emperor, also, 1t is understood, intends to
have built a new sailing yacht to replace
the Meteor III. which has never performed
to his satisfaction.

Shirt Waists for the Season.

The shirt waist, neatest of all gar
ments, is tending back to first princi-
pies. The smartest practical styles
for spring call again for the rather
mannish cut once exacted, and with
this mems shirtings are largely used.
Striped and figured linens and chew
lots and percales are selected at the
masculine haberdasher's, and there
made up or turned over to private
shirt makers of undisputed talent.
These very trim and stylishly sim
pie shirts are almost as devoid of or
nament as the masculine garment. A
limited number of wide tucks show at
the fronts of many, holding these taut
and fiat to the waist. The backs are
mainly plain; sleeves are small, rath-
er skimp than generous as to length
and are finished with stiff cuffs.
The collar is an important and
dainty feature. Many stiff linen col
lars are worn, with ties of silk in the
color of the shirt pattern, but the
neatest neck fixing is a straight stock
of white pique with a narrow tie in
the shirt material.

Bureau and table scarfs in broderie
anglaise are the latest fancy in deco
rative household linen.
Always have a place for brooms
and feather busters and brushes
where they are protected from the
dust.
Lemons can be kept almost indefin-
itely under glass that is light and air
tight. Set one under a goblet and
see.
Very scanty fullness is the rule
now for all window or door hangings
anu none at all for front door and
vestibule panels.
To wash anything that is greasy
use hot soda water. The alkali turns
the grease into soap, which will do
its own cleansing.
Half lemon placed in the water
in which dish towels and kitchen
cloths are soaked is said to sweeten
them wonderfully.
One of the most soothing applica-
tions for a fresh burn is raw potato
scraped or grated and bound like a
poultice on the injured surface.

Important Point.

Important Point.
An important point which the home
dIessmaker must learn is not to de-
pend too closely on her pattern. A
professional dressmaker, as rule,
builds her garment from a well-fitting
lining, but trims and drapes and adds
the accessories without any aid but
her own ingenuity. The amateur usu-
ally buys a pattern, and is afraid to
altar it by so much as a hairs breadth
for fear the result will not be salts
factory. This fear of being original
is what makes so many garments
have the home made" look, and it
should be combatted by the worker
trying her hand at making a garment
after her own ideas, using at first
some cheap material easy to handle,
which. if it is spoiled, will count for
just so much experience gained, in
stead of being a total loss Money
will be saved in the purchase of pat
terms, and the worker will soon find
that by following out her own ideas
she will save likewise on material
and on time. One home dressmaker
bought a nine-gored skirt pattern last
spring and several skirts of different
styles were evolved from that founda-
ton In one, the second and fourth
cores were cut off at the knee and a
box plait of the goods inserted, with
a pretty finish of embroidery where
the gore and the box plait met. In
al other the same two cores were cut
off about ten inches below the band,
and a gathered panel with a heading
was added, the panel being gathered
several times across.

Novelty in VeiIinos.

A charming yelling novelty is of
chiffon imprime, or printed chiffon
(although the shop girls all call it by
the first name, giving it the English
spelling value), in which the ground
is a very sheer but firm chiffon, and
the printing of floral sprays and de-
signs is SO cleverly managed that both
sides are exactly alike. Some of them
are finished with a plain chiffon bor-
der, hemstitched to the printed goods,
while others make use of ribbons
plain, f1uted, crimped and plated
with the most novel effect
The girl with the long and slender
features can indulge in the voluminous
finish to her veil, but she of the
round, plump face will find that the
plain border is Ear more becoming

sanq His Own Requiem.

The final obsequies of a well known
merchant who died recently in Cork
city were marked by an incident as
curious as it was impressive.
A phonograph was placed on the lid
of the coffin. When the religious
ceremonies were over the phonograph
was turned on, and the mourners in
the church listened to the singing of
the final Requiem of Absolution'' as
it had been rendered by the decedent.
The cylinder is to be preserved, and
it is intended to commemorate each
anniversary of his death in a similar
manner.
The dead man had a fine baritone
voice, and gave his services at many a
public entertainment in the south of
Ireland.

In Choosing Hats.

If a woman has sharp or decidedly
prominent features let her avoid hats
that are set back or off the face. Such
a woman should wear hat brought
well forward, and hair should be as
fluffy as possible, and a becoming veil
will do wonders. Sharp outlines in
hats should also be avoided by her.
Lace edges and indented trims are
good.
If the features are irregular, hat
with the brim crushed here and there
is usually a suitable setting. The
woman with a prominent nose has
much to contend with Her hats
should avoid severeness in outline and
should be set well forward, so that the
prominent feature will appear little
less in size. On the other hand the
woman with a small or fat nose
should not wear a hat that projects
sufficiently to make the nose appear
even more insignificant, nor a large
hat that dwarfs it.
A hat under medium in size, and
with small flowers or short tips, or
rows of moderate size should be worn
With small face and features huge
picture hats should never be worn,
even if the figure be tall and slight
enough to carry them.

the famous tavern has disappeared.
In the heart of the big new building,
which is to take its place, there will
be preserved the old-fashioned low
ceilinged, heavy raftered room where
the experiment took place. and the
identical CRATE and fireplace where an
thracite coal first burned.
The experiment in the old crate spe-
cially built for the purpose by Judge
Jesse Fell, then one of the leading
men in the community, took place on
Feb. IL, 1908, almost 100 years ego He
had written in letters to relative de-
scribing the achievements, and for
some time had contended that if prop
erly ignited the "stone COAL" as it was
then called, would burn, but his
friends laughed at him. Nevertheless
he studied the problem until he decid-
ed that it was necessary to have a
draught to make it keep going.
He then had the CRATE built of ten
inch bars, forming the front and bot
tom of a box that he set in brick, and
in this he placed the stone coal, light
ing it from below by means of splin-
tiers of wood and keeping up such a
draught with a bellows that the coal
soon glowed red hot He found, too,
that when red hot it quickly ignited
other coal placed upon it, and, proud
of his success. he told his neighbors.
They would not believe him until
they had, as he wrote, ocular demon
stration of the fact" Day after day
the old room in the tavern was crowd
ed with the people of the little village
and the travellers who passed through
and soon to all parts of the region
where outcroppings of coal had been
discovered the news was borne.

ingenious Chinaman Constructs vehi-
Gle Principally Of Wood.
The wooden bicycle shown in the
accompanying picture was made by a
Chinaman. His sole pattern was
drawing of an old fashioned bone sha-
ker.
The front wheel looks very much
like a discarded rickshaw wheel but
the man declares he made the whole
thing himself.
The most curious part of the ma
chine is the backbone, which is moth
ing more or less than an agricultural
pitchfork, the prongs being bent down
to form supports for the hind wheel
The seat differs from the conven-
tional saddle in having two pieces OF
wood nailed at right angles to each
other and padded with cotton wool for
additional comfort.
There are no pedals. The rider
works from the front wheel hub. on a
