FITZGERALD COTTON MILLS
IN PROSPEROUS CONDITION
Has Paid Good Dividends on the
Capital Stock Since Its
Organization.

About a week ago we had some
thing on the subject of the Fitz-
gerald Cotton Mills, and in men
tioning the fact that the work of
dou bling the size and capacity of
the factory was now in progress,
we reviewed some of the history.
Among the other things, we
said that the mill had lost monsy
the first year of it's operation
under the new organization on
account of losses in cotton. In
that statement we were mistaken
and did Mr.. E. K. Farmer, the
manager an injustice. There
were some losses in cotton at the
first of the season when cotton
declined from 9 to 7 cents, but al
together there we're no great
losses on that score and all
were more than covered by the
splendid earning capacity of the
mill. Altogether the year was a
successful one and made money,
despite the decline in cotton.
The object of our first article
was mainly to call attention to the
fact that the mills capacity was
being increased--doub1e and that
the owners of the property show
ed sublime confidence in the mill
by the additional investment.

A GRAY Velvet creation.

A beautiful gray velvet dress,
evolved by New York house, has
two bodices embroidered in cut steel
beads. One bodice, cut very low and
without sleeves. has for its sole trim
ming q deep steel fringe forming ber-
tina and sleeves through which the
waistline is clearly defined. The other
rather loose bodice was eased into
a steel belt and edged with chinchilla.
This could be worn as a coat, open or
closed, and the steel trimming was
carried all around just inside as well
as out-a form of trimming which pre-
vailed last winter. All the incest fur
coats are finished in this way.
Another of the newest velvets was
in blue and white shepherds plaid,
made with the plain, full gathered
skirt, and simple cross-over bodice,
showing a chemisette of soft lace and
finished with narrow tie Of orange
velvet To be worn with this were a
toque and muff composed of gray and
white marabou, in which there nestled
trails of white silk roses, without
foliage.

the skirt, and edged with green and

) Monastery Of Trappists s
E...---Qf-..
Especial Correspondence

lt was one of the great desires of a
literary man of my acquaintance in
Rome to be enabled to visit the con-
vent of that austere order of Francis
can nuns known as the "Sepolte Vive,"
Or Buried Alive" nuns. He died with
out having his desire accomplished;
but If he had been less exigent in the
way of austerity he might have made
acquaintance with the abbot of the
Trappists, an order which is sufficient
ly retired and ascetic to crafty most
mems curiosity in this special line.
With the Trappists the rule of
silence is absolute-no monk may
speak to another on any occasion. The
exceptions are for the father abbot
and the guest-master, for the procura-
tor-general, that is to say, the bust
ness agent, and the lay brothers who
receive and converse with visitors.
So many visitors to Rome have the
desire of seeing Trappist monastery,
and of catching glimpse, If possible,
of one of these men whose silence is
proverbial, that they are induced to
pay a visit to the Ire Fontane
The road to this suburban monas-
terry leads along the river side, and
as you look forward from beneath the
shadow of the Aventine, one of the
loveliest of the many lovely views of
old Rome opens out before you. The
rude ruins on the hillside support con-
vents and monastic buildings that
take the color of the ancient remains
and assume a likeness even to the
very tufa rock of the hill. Here at one
time Honorius built the walls that for
titled the Aventine, and in later centu-
ries st. Dominic, the founder of the
Dominican order, established his
brethren in the old fifth century
church of Santa Sabina.
The knights of Malta, whose heroic
deeds tighten up the records of the
middle ages, have their house and
church all covered with designs of
weapons of war, on the distant peak
Of the hill, and through the keyhole
in the garden gate YOU may behold
the celebrated view of st. Peters
over the river known as the Keyhoe
view.

Striking Styles in Hats.


A striking little toque is OF solt'
gelvet-finished beaver, methodicaiiy
strapped with narrow bands of velvet
in shades ranging from deep plnklsh
yellow through burnt orange to brown,
in wonderful gradations OF color.
Browns in coppery and chocolate
tones are still the shades par excel
lerce for this season.
Another smart model in hats is OF
reddish brown velvet, having large
oblong crown which is further IN
creased in size by loose drapings OF
the velvet. Underneath the rim are
organisations of Irish crochet, and
above are long floating plumes OF
brown. Moire ribbon strings COM
plete this charming model
Almost all skirts shown are shirred
or plated at the waist, and all the ex-
cess material falls in voluminous folds
to the floor and trails, indeed, Tor
from three to six inches all around.
The lower portion is deliberately
trimmed with fiounces, festoons, ruch-
ings and all sorts of odd, Old-fash-
toned adornings.
Among the new evening coats
shown are some in shawl or cape eff
fects, entirely devoid of sleeves. These
are provided, of course, for those
evening gowns which even this early
have the immense sleeves and puffs
of a decade ago, and are warranted
not to crush the delicate fabrics.

Cakes for Afternoon Tea.

Dainty little cakes for the afternoon
tea may be baked in tins of fancy
shapes, iced, sprinkled with broken
nut meats, and dotted with candied
fruits. An excellent old rule for cake
calls for an equal weight of eggs.
-four, butter, and sugar Cream the
sugar and butter together very thor
oughly Then drop in the eggs one
by one, beating each after it goes in
until the mixture is very foamy. After
the beating has made the batter as
frothy as possible, fold in the flour.
Bake this cake slowly. Otherwise it
will be tough.

CARE OF PLANTS IN WINTER.
Air and Sunshine Chief Requisites for
Window Ornaments.

Give plants all the fresh air you
can. Open doors and windows at some
distance from them on pleasant days
and give them a chance to breathe in
pure oxygen in liberal quantity. Give
all the sunshine you can. And aim to
keep the temperature of the room be-
tween 20 degrees by day and SO at
night. 1t will probably exceed these
figures in both directions, but try to
regulate it in such way as to avoid
the extremes of intense heat and dan
gerous cold.
Use water literally on the foliage
of your plants. By washing off the
dust it keeps open the pores of the
leaves through which they breathe and
it tempers the hot dry atmosphere
usually prevailing in the living room.
The only way to modify this condition
is to keep water constantly evaporat'
ing on the stove or register and make
frequent use of the sprayer.

To Kill or Cure the Dog?

A Mr.. Gray of Georges Corner took
his dog out recently, says the Marine
Sportsman, to chase foxes. 1t was a
hopeful dog, filled with the enthusi
asm of youth. Somehow the hound
got switched off from the fox's track
and went after a lively loupcervier,
and when Mr. Gray came along 20
shoot a fox, he found very sad and
dilapdated dog sitting under tree,
with the wild cat overhead among the
limbs contemplating a fresh assault.
Mr.. Gray shot the loupccrvier and
took the pelt home for the purpose OF
patching up the places where the skin
was missing from his dog. He says
another wild cat is needed to com
plete the job.

1t takes a number of years before they

four bands of black fox, form the col

a pretty cuff, frilled with lace, and

In New York's Touch Districts.

The experiences of the Bellevue hos.
pital ambulance surgeons in the I'M
lighted districts skirting East river.
New York, where it is not safe even
for policemen to venture sometimes,
have led the hospital authorities to
equip the instrument bags carried by
the surgeons with a tubular electric
dark lantern, sixteen inches long and
two inches thick, weighing about two
pounds. 1t serves equally well as a
lantern and night stick. According
to the stories of the surgeons, when
they have returned from calls to par.
ticularly dangerous districts, the de
fensive end of the contrivance has
often proved more usefuf than the
electric ends.

is unfavorable, they occupy them

They rise at 2 in the morning to
recite the office in church, and this is
done all the year round. The prayers
and meditations last till 4:30. Prayer
and labor, simple living and high
thinking constitute the occupations OF
life for the Trappist. At the Three
Fountains he looks more healthy than
the jewellers in cities who live in lux
ury and comfort. In solitude is the
priest made perfect, said an early
monk and the Trappist seems to make
good the saying.
A couple of miles distant from the
Three Fountains is the great cata-
