trimmed with gold tassels and cord. 1t was
the original intention to present the ship

the Navy department, the stand of colors
was decided upon. Its cost was $175. of
which $27 was given by the Sons of the

WOMAN IN CLUB AND CHARITY

After two weeks Of Investigation and the
customary discussion OF other assembly
rooms, the Woman's club decided at yester-
day afternoons meeting to retain its pres
ent quarters for the coming year at a rem
tai OF $500 Although the membership is
somewhat less than 400. and less than 100
members were present. the argument that
the auditorium of the First Congregational
church, which is now used. 10 unnecessarily
large and that the club might confne itself
to the chapel at a saving of something over
500 a year was Of no avail. A report from
the treasurer showed $500 in the treasury,
with the present months rent unpaid. Be
sides this the club has reserve fund Of
something over $1,000.
In recognition of her philanthropic work
Mrs. @. w. Clarke. one OF the charter MEM
bers Of the club, was unanimously elected
an honorary member.
The propositions regarding the Chicago
university extension course of lectures
brought before the club two weeks ago and
postponed, were again postponed, with the
recommendation that some more definite
outline of topics be presented when the
matter comes up again.
Two new members were reported as hav-
ing qualified since the last meeting.

tan Temperance union members of the club
will join the other women's organizations

Do not spread the cheese over the

WHEN ARRANGING FLOWERS
Those with Weak Stems Should Be
supported-A Simple Home
Made Device.

Arranging flowers whose stems are
weak, pansies, French daisies, violets
and most wild flowers. is rather diff
cult. The usual method Is to place
them in a shallow bowl where they
stand up bravely around the edges and
collapse in the middle. One trouble Is
that these flowers are usually picked
with very little foliage, which is mis-
take in more than one way Pansies
especially should be surrounded with
plenty of foliage and buds to get the
best effect. Violet leaves are very
charming. It is necessary to have q
few wire flower holders to fit bowls.
They are not very expensive, but IL
even small sums are not available the
holders may be made at home at a
trifing expense. Get piece of wire
netting with mesh half an inch wide,
and, with an old pair of shears, cut the
shape of the bowl, little smaller
than the top, leaving on four sides of
the piece half a dozen wires as long as
the bowl is deep. These wires are bent
at right angles and serve as a support
to the holder. A number of these
holders can be made, one for each
flower bowl on hand. Another way of
arranging short or weak-stemmed flow
ers is to place them in small glasses
OF the champagne order, and after
wards grouping the glasses together on
a little tray or mirror. Long-stemmed
flowers show to good advantage ar
ranged in the bronze flower holders
which come in sets Of three and five.
They are expensive, however. A good
substitute can be made at home, using
a strip Of sheet lead one or two inches
wide and IL to 20 inches long. Bend in
as many s loops as desired, and place
In the bottom Of a bowl setting the
ends Of the stems in the loops.

THE CHICAGO STRIKE.

A conference between the Chicago
teamsters and employers again failed
to end the strike and peace seems
more distant than ever.
Charles Ward In an affidavit filed In
the United States court at Chicago
swore that William j. Baker confessed
to being hired by the teamsters' union
to slug nonunion men for $3.50 each.
The strike imposes an extra burden Of
nearly $4,000 a day on the taxpayers OF
Cook county and Chicago.
President Shea. Of the Transfers In
ternational union, and Hugh MCGEE,
president Of the Truck Drivers union,
were prisoners In the county jail in Chi
cago for three hours, having been taken
in custody under the new indictments re-
turned against them for conspiracy.

Ancient Egypt
Knew tho Virtues q the
ssKing of Foods"

Since the earliest annals of Old
Egypt, wheat has been recognized
as the king of foods. ~
It has held its sway down to the
present day, Notwithstanding the
fact that in many forms of making
wheat into food products, some of
the best elements are lost.
Bread has been aptly termed,
the staff of life," as it alone of
known foods has all the elements
that are needed to sustain life.
Eg4-O-See contains all the best
elements of wheat~in far more
healthful and delicious form than
any bread, crackers or ordinary
wheat foods. In addition to the
best whole wheat delicately faxed
and crushed, it is made still more
digestible by the addition of refined
diastase, the highest grade of malt.
There are no premiums or gifts
in the Egg-O-See package; moth
ing but full measure Of the highest
gradeof cereal food in the world.

TO DO UP LACE CURTAINS.
First shake All the Dust Out and
Work the Dirt Loose by Rinsing,
But Do Not Use dashboard.

Brush and shake all dust from them
and put them In warm soapy water 70
soak over night. In the morning heat
plenty Of water. Lift and press with
hands to remove dirt. then squeeze
gently and put into q clean suds and
continue lifting and squeezing. II
much soiled It is best to use third
suds. but never use dashboard. just
work the dirt out by pressing them
gently up and down In the water with
the hands. Do not wiring them, but
squeeze out the water with the hands.
IL washed this way the finest curtains
will rarely have thyead broken, even
II tender with age. When clean rinse
through two or three waters. Make q
very thin starch, to have them only as
stiff as when new, put the bluing into
the starch and squeeze the curtains
out Of 1t as before. To dry (if you
haven't curtain frame), pin clean
sheets to the carpet In an unused
room, stretch the curtains on the
sheets as tightly as possible, having
the edges straight, and pin the curtain
to the carpet by the center OF the edge
OF every scallop. When dry go over
the tapped edges with an iron and they
are ready to hang. q
A quick and easy way to dry lace
curtains II one has a pair of quilting
frames with the cloth strips along the
sides, Is to stretch the frames In a
grassy yard free of dust and pin the
curtains by every scallop to the cloth.
When pinned stretch the frames as
much as possible, being careful to have
the same number of holes on each
side, so the curtains will be straight
and even. Two or four curtains can
be put on the frames at once on a hot
day.
All breaks should be mended with
thread to match the mesh in size, be-
fore being washed. Where there Is q
large hole that cannot be drawn to-
gether, haste two thicsnesses Of heavy
paper under the hole, thread the sew
ing machine with fine or coarse thread
to match the curtain mesh, then stitch
up and down, and then across, leaving
spaces of same size as mesh In cur
tain. Then tear away the paper, and
the mend will scarcely be noticeable

MR.. BAYSSON PUBLISHES RESULTS
OF VALUABLE EXPERIENCE.
A Former Pronounced Dyspeptic He Now

Miseries of indigestion.

Rejoices in Perfect Freedom from
Miseries OF indigestion.
Thousands Of sufferers know that the
reason why they are irritable and de-
pressed and nervous and sleepless is be-
cause their food does not digest, but how
to get rid Of the difficulty is the pnzzling
question.
Good digestion calls for strong diges-
tive organs, and strength comes from q
supply Of good rich blood. For this
reason Mr.. Baysson took DIR. Williams
Pink Pills for the cure Of indigestion.
"They have been my best doctor, T" he
says. II was suffering from dyspepsia.
The pains in my stomach after meals
were almost unbearable. My sleep was
very irregular and my complexion was
sallow. AS the result Of using eight
boxes Of DR.. Williams Pink Pills, about
the merits of which I learned from
friends I'm France, ] have escaped all
these troubles, and am able again to take
pleasure in eating"
A very simple story. but II II had not
been for DR.. Williams Pink Pills IL
might have been tragic one. When dis
comfort begins with eating. hlls up the
intervals between meals with pain, and
prevents sleep ut night, there certainly
cannot be much pleasure in living. A
final general breaking down must be
merely question Of time.
