Silk Glove Problem Solved.

What to do with the old silk gloves
has long been problem with the girl
who hates to throw away her clothes
as long as any merit remains in them.
Elbow length silk gloves are expens-
i've, but the fingers wear out just as
quickly as any other kind, and, of
course, no one wants to wear ragged
finger tips. Mending is almost impos-
sible. One summer girl has hit upon
a clever idea. when her silk gloves
are worn out at the fingers she cuts
them off in straight line across the
knuckles, makes a little hem and
edges it with a narrow bit Of lace.
This makes a dainty pair of mitts
with long wrists, just the thing to
wear with this summers elbow
sleeves.
If silk stockings could only be made
over the same way!

In Suspender Style.

Suspender styles still hold good, in
spite Of the many predictions to the
contrary voiced earlier in the season;
but more interesting developments of
the style are being made all the
while One of the prettiest of the
many adaptations was made with a
nine-gore skirt. The suspenders-
wide ones, too-rose from an oddly
shaped bit (Which bloused a little
above the girdle) and ended in an
other shaped piece. Both the shaped
pieces were scalloped, the scallops
facing, and both suspender-girdle and
skirt were trimmed with buttons and
worked buttonholes.

Ham TimbaIes.

Chop some very fine and add
tablespoon melted butter, also little
pepper. Toast slices of bread and
spread some of the chopped ham on
each slice. Add dropped egg to
each slice, also, and then you have
minced ham with dropped eggs on
toast. Eggs can be omitted. Makes a
nice cold dish for lunch or supper, An
other way is to chop ham and cold
boiled potatoes together, season with
salt, pepper and butter. Add a few
crackers rolled fine. Shape with the
hands into small cakes, using little
flour and fry the same as fishcakes.

AWKWARD DINING IN JAPAN
American There Is Sure to
Be Trying.

If it's your first Japanese dinner you're
having a dreadfully hard time. In the
first place, writes Bertha Runkle, in
Child Life in China and Japan you
must sit on the floor for they don't have
any chairs in Japan. You kneel down,
and then you turn your toes in till one
laps over the other, and then you sit
back between your heels. At first you
are quite proud to find how we'll you 90
it, and you don't think it's so very un-
comfortable. But pretty soon you get
cramped, and your legs ache as if you
had a toothache in them. You don't say
anything, because you think that if the
Japanese can sit this way all day long.
you ought to be able to stand it few
minutes Finally both you feet go to sleep
and then you can't bear it moment lon
ger, and you have to get up and stamp
round the room to drive the prickles out
of your feet, and all the dancing girls
giggle at you. This isn't your only trout

the chairs and sofas and tables and beds
as we'll At home it would be mortify-
ing enough to go out to dinner and spill
something on the floor; but in Japan,
where people sit and sleep on the floor,
it seems even worse. So you are unhappy
till your little nesan (who is the waitress,
and almost as prettily dressed as the
dancing girls, but not quite) comes
laughing to your aid and shows you how
to hold your chop-sticks. After that you
manage nicely the rice and the omelet,
but the fish and the chicken you can't
contrive to shred apart without drop
ping your chop-sticks all the time. So,

giggling at your awkwardness; but you
don't mind-you just giggle, too; and
everybody giggles and has lovely

cry that brushes millions.
1t is not enough that our brothers are
perishing by thousands IN foreign
land, paying with their blood for the
perfidy of that government which tore
from them their freedom and their
fatherland. Our people are brought to

Savage Despair.
You cannot imagine the savage de-
spair which overpowers the masses torn
from the plow, from the hearth, from
wife and children. If we are going to
perish, let us perish in our own country!
Let us die by the hands of those who
are our enemies!" is the cry of the re-
serves. THE very stones cry out when
they take us. They clamor to the peo-
pie of Warsaw. We are not going to de-
fend Russia. Our country is here!"
You do not know that women throw
themselves under the wheels of the
trains that carry their relations to the
far east; that cases of sudden death
and madness occur every day; that in

diers fired into the people and killed

"Potatoes the Finest I Ever Saw"

Owing to the great amount of inter.
est that Is being taken in Western Can
ada, it is well to be informed of some
of the facts that are bringing about the
great emigration from portions of the
United States
The Canadian Government have au-
thorized agents at different points, and
the facts related in the following may
be corToborated on application. At the.
same time they will be able to quote
you rates, and give you certificates
emitting you to low rates on the diff
ferent lines OF railway The following
letter copied from the North Bend
(Neb.) Eagle, Is an unsolicited testi-
moniaI, and the experience Of Mr..
Austen is that of hundreds of other
Americans, who have made Canada
their home during the past seven or
eight years:
81 presume some may be interested
TO know how we have progressed this
year In the Canadian Northwest. We
have no complaint to offer. We have
had a good year, crops were good and
we have had a delightful season. I
threshed from my place $3.50 bushels
of grain My oats made So bushels per
acre and weighed AN pounds per
bushel My wheat made 311a bushels
per acre and Is No. 1 quality. My
barley made about 30 bushels Of good
quality. My crop Is a fair average OF
the crops in the Edmonton district.
"All crops were good here this sea-
son. Potatoes the finest ever saw,
and all vegetables adapted to the
climate. We have had a very fine fall
but no exception to the Tale as the fall
season is, I think, the most pleasant
Of the year. We have had no snow yet
NOV 81, and have been blowing and
working the land preparing for an
early seeding next spring. Last night
the mercury dropped lower than any
previous night this fall and this morn
ing there is a crust Of frost on the
fields sufficient to prevent field work.
No doubt many would imagine that AL
berta had put on her winter overcoat
before this and that the people were
wrapped in flrs, but 1t Is only ques-
ton Of time when this country will not
be looked upon as an iceberg, but a
country fit for the best Of mankind to
live in.
eve are now assured of a transcon-
tinental railway, which is to be built
to the Pacific during the next five
years. The Canadian Northern road
is graded to within seventy-five miles
Of Edmonton It comes from Winni-
peg and will reach us next summer, SO
with one railroad already at hand, the
second to reach us in less than year,
and the third to penetrate our city and
open up this country to the west across
the Rockies to the coast within FIVE
years, we surely have reason to believe
that the country is progressing.
