The immense contracts of the Krupps at
Essen. Prussia, partly for the rearmament of
the German artillery and partly Russian,
Japanese and Turkish orders, have required
the company to increase the number of its
workmen from about $4,000 10 more than
SC. 900. The insufficiency of houses for the
men has compelled the management to erect
temporary barracks for their accommodation.
AT WIlkesbarre, Pa, FIVE women school
teachers of Pittston township have sued the
School Board for four years salary due them.
The teachers have about reached the limit of
their credit, and they have concluded to take
no more stock in the promises made by the
members of the board that they would soon
settle.

Novelty laces.

The lace blouses for evening are
very pretty. The simplest are made
of Valenciennes lace, which comes at
its prettiest about an inch wide. This
lace is overlapped so that there Is an
edge which looks like little ruff
fle And row after row of lace can be
put together, making dozens and doz-
ems of these little ruffles. The work
must be all done by hand, and there
must be the daintiest stitchery put
upon it.
Finally, the bodice is cut out and.
when completed, it is a mass of little
lace ruffles. It needs very little trim
ming. Yet around the yoke and
around the stock, or bordering the
bertha, there is a twist of satin to
give it finish and a touch of color.
Satin is wrought in very pretty ways
right into the waists of washable
dresses. OF course, they are never
meant to see the tub and for that rea-
son the satin is used as piping and
as a tiny little bow finish here and
there. Little bows of satin are con-
cealed in the trimmings and the ends
are pulled out to look like butterfly
wings.

BOYS RUSSIAN SUIT,

One of the most popular styles for
little men is the Russian blouse, with
full, short trousers. and some of the
late importations show very smart lit
tie garments of this description for
small boys. They are especially popu
lar with French tailors, who are send
ing over more models of this fashion
than of any other style. Our model
for to-day is from Paris-a stylish lit
tie suit of heavy white linen, the loose
blouse finished with a long sailor COL
lar, pointed in front and cut square
across the back. With this Is worn
a bright red taffeta silk scarf and red
patent leather belt In the corners Of
the collar, on the sleeves and on the
shield in front are worked stars and
chevrons in red, to match the tie. The
trousers are full and comfortable,
elastic bands holding them firmly at
the knees. The belt is held in place
by little straps Of the goods, through
which 1t is slipped. and completes the
finish Of very effective suit for the

Sprjno Wraps,


The modish woman never fails to
be possessed of separate wrap for
spring wear. Her choice may be a
blouse bolero, an Elton with or with
out position back, a long redingote
or Louis XIV. coat, each of which
has many notifications. If silk is pre-
ferred, she may choose black satin,
faille, bengaline, MORE, taffeta, or one
of the smart weaves of tussur-silk.
A loose, comfortable coat is the one
garment every woman should possess.
1t should be large enough to go over
short jacket and skirt, and yet look
we'll when worn with blouse suit.
1t can be worn on rainy days, in very
cold weather. for travelling, driving
and automobiling. These coats can
be bought ready-made in the shops,
but can be made at home, providing
one has good pattern, as they re.
quire but little fitting except at the
shoulders. They are shaped at the
back by means of wide seams, or are
held in by double straps of leather or
cloth.-The Pilgrim.

The Bishops Mistake.

Bishop Johns was holding service
at little log church in the mountains
of the South. Two young mountain
GERS, proud parents of lusty young
ster, presented themselves before the
bishop to have the child christened
The bishop asked: What name?"
The father of the child replied
"Beelzebub."

that the Prince of Darkness should be
so honored. mo, we'll call the child

go Whereupon he continued rapidly
with the Il baptize thee, John" He
signed with the sign of the cross and
dismissed the parents.
They had become more and more
confused under the unwonted solem.
nifty of the unfamiliar ritual. The
father stood on one foot, shifting his
weight to the other; the mother was
equally disturbed.
When the two reached the door of
the church the father turned, and at
last finding his voice, called back to-
ward the rude chancel: Mister
Bishop, dis heah's gal baby!"-The

Knew His Own Yacht.

Truman H. Newberry, the rich
young Deroiter who is going to sue
coed Assistant Secretary Darling, was
a member or the Michigan naval mill
tia at the time of the war with Spain
His fine yacht was rendered to the
government and was used, and Mr.
Newberry himself served as com
mon sailor on the Yosemite. When
President Roosevelt was last in De
troit he made a speech in which he
said:
Il cannot say that the story is
true, but they do say that during the
Spanish war a common sailor while
scrubbing the decks was asked what
Yacht that was in the distance.
Its the Dawn" replied the sailor.
"How do you know? was the
query.
"T know, said the common sailor,
because own her."

Try Soft CASTLE Soap.

One of the most convenient things
to have on every washstand is a jar
of soft CASTLE ooap. This is made by
scraping a cake of pure soap and
adding about a pint and a half Of
water. Put them together into
saucepan and stand over brisk heat.
but not one that will boil the liquid.
When the soap is dissolved pour into
a wide-mouthed jar. When the mix
ture cools it will be jelly. This is
excellent to have to rub on the hands
when washing, diluted with more
water, to which couple of pinches
of soda is added. 1t is a harmless
and cleansing shampoo to be rubbed
into the head, which is then rinsed
thoroughly.

Mr.. Hummel, "she is always hard up,

about her. A female bill collector
called on her to try to get her to set

Effect of Touches of Color.

color are wonderfully attractive. All
the blue gobelin, Sevres, Sax

line of yellow, almond and other leaf
greens are the favorite additions.

MODERN METHODS OF SPELLING
Exchange Tells of Hardshps They
Caused One Unfortunate.


Imagine the case of a person who
at different periods of his life was
obliged to learn to spell all over
again." said the professor. 81 knew of
such a man, not originally poor
speller. who was compelled thrice to
take up the study of photography. 1t
happened in this way:
This friend of mine was reared in
the country, attended the school,
and acquired therein the necessary
proficiency under the rules of the old
time teacher AS matter of fact he
learned to spell while standing. 1t
was curious fact that for many
years that man could not spell some
of the simplest words unless he stood
up. On his feet, he was the best
speller in the class, and acquired
many prize in the spelling bees
There was not pupil in those days
who could turn him down. when it
came to an exercise in upright ortho-
graphy.
Then, years afterward, he had to
learn to spell with a pencil. All his
spelling talent went into his pencil.
His tongue had lost its cunning, and
whether standing or sitting he would
miss the easiest words, unless he used
his pencil.
Finally, with the advent of the
typewriter, he was obliged again to
learn how to spell, this time with the
machine. Queer thing. isn't it? I'm
less the word is simple one, my
friends tongue refuses its aid, his
pencil declines to afford its old-time
help, and he is compelled to refer to
the writing machine. And yet he's
good speller.-The Sunday Magazine.

hooked down the center, is set into

This style would be adapted to al
most any goods, lightweight wooden
material like wolfe or mohair, or some
other pretty linens that are so useful
for the spring and summer season.
The skirt is cut in walking length, and
makes very attractive and practical

Veil Pins.

In selecting pins for her veil, the
tidy girl is careful to affect no vio-
lent contrasts For her white veil she
has pearl-headed pins, and for her
black wells pins of polished jet. If
she has variety of veilings in colors
she does not fail to have on hand a
pin ball or cube holding pins headed
with various colors. In fact, these
colored pins are essential to the make
up of the tidy girl, as modern fashions
require a liberal use of pins despite
the efforts of the most clever dress
makers to provide the requisite num-
Der of loops and buttons.

Hat Trimmings,

Possibly the most noticeable thing
among the new importations is the
unanimity with which milliners have
posed the bulk of the trimming upon
the backs of the hats. At a recent
showing of spring hats was turban
in fine green chip. with folds of green
velvet slightly darker around the
crown and small roses in browns
from chestnut to orange and yellow
trimming the back and right side.

Fancies In Sleeves.

The majority of the shirtwaists Of
the season are made with very fancy
sleeves, giving an opportunity for a
new sleeve chapter. One of the pref
test of sleeves is a needlework coat
sleeve, with a white lawn shirring
around the top. The white lawn is
gathered in the middle and sewed to
the back of the sleeve to simulate
angel wings. They are small and
dainty and pretty.

When looking glasses have to be
cleaned first wash the glass all over
with lukewarm soapsuds and a
sponge. and when dry rub it bright
with chamois leather and little pre-
pared chalk which has been finely
powdered. A splendid gloss will be
given to glasses by rubbing them
quickly with newspapers.
