Lots to Learn.

The proprietor OF the laundry was
greatly disappointed at the showing
of the new laundress who had told
him she was experienced In order to
get the Job.
You have lots to learn" he said,
picking up the shirt which she had
ironed and examining II critically.
"The bosom isn't bit bad. but the
neckband Is something fierce. Always
remember that the neckband should
be ironed so that the collar button
can't be put into the hole without the
aid Of Barlow knife"

DIAMONDS WHILE YOU WAIT.
Valuable Crystals Made In Laboratory
Of Prof. Moissan.


Of Prof. Moissan.
The art of making diamonds has
been given n step forward through a
study OF the diamond-bearing meteoric
iron OF Canon Diablo. In section Of
this famous meteorite Prof. Moissan
has found numerous diamonds-both
black and transparent-together with
graphite and phosphorus and sulphur
combined with iron. He has also
made experiments to determine the
effect Of silicon. sulphur. and phos.
phorus. Iron was fused with large
mass Of sugar in a crucible In an elec-
trio furnace. A soon as the molten
iron had become saturated with car
bon-partly from the sugar-a small
proportion of iron sulphide was intro
duced, and the crucible was plunged
into cold water. With rapid cooling
as an essential, the carbon crystal.
lized out from the center of the mass.
The iron sulphide considerably In.
creased the yield OF diamond crystals.
MS did also the silicon. but phosphorus
had no infiuence.-Science Siftings.

The man who puts alcoholic beyer-

that 1t is the proper receptacle for in
'vigorating beverages has been much

external method of indulgence.

miss AIlen,s MiIllnerx openlng.

The annual spring millinery display
began Friday morning, and all day the
millinery parlor of Miss B. w. Allen was
filed with sightseers eager to catch the
first glimpse of the authoritative fashions
tor spring wear. The display was very
comprehensive one. embracing pattern
hats from foreign chimes as well as from
the master designers of our own coun-
try. Side by side with the imported
and domestic pattern creations were the
hats designed and fashioned By Miss Al
len and her able assistants, SO that they
stood in comparison with the dreams
from gay Paris and other foreign fashion
centres. Attention was called TO the fact
that the predominatlng colors are OF
varied sorts in new browns. victorias,
greens, marine and military blues. black
and white, lavender. pink and red. A
great many small hats were shown, also
the medium and large hats for misses.
Something very new was the short front
and high back in the turban and CONT
mental shapes. A very stylish trimming
for these hats was r0sette of shirred
soft ribbon with flower centre. A great
many large and small flowers are used
for trimmings; also ribbon. lace and silks
in the soft pastelle shades. One of The
newest shapes tor the season is the Char
lotte Corday. The crown of this hat is
made of shaded foliage and pink roses,
with ecru lace falling gracefully over the
brim of green twisted velvet. Green
shaded ribbon with buckle formed the
side trimming. Something very pretty
in poke bonnet for child was made
of ruffied white lace, while the under
brim was a shrred chiffon with small
PINK flowers. and light rosettes formed
the trimming for the high crown, wide
silk ties caught with tiny buckles to the
back. The mourning work shown was
stylish and elaborate. The large square
wells on the turbans at once caught the
eyes of many of the ladies. The notion
department received marked attention,
the ladies finding there many useful and
pretty articles to please their fancy and
taste. With the aid of lovely carnations,
roses. palms. ferns and other potted
plants, Miss Aliens store was for the
nonce made bower of exceeding beauty
and attractiveness, and she. with her eff
cient and accommodating assistants. Miss
Eddy and MISS Young, are entitled to
much credit for this beautiful spring
opening.
