the weather to those smart little affairs; they are worn merely AS q finishing touch to the toilette, and amply do they fill this office. The one that is pictured is readily possible to the woman who can use a crochet needle, for 1t Is all in the large and rather coarse motifs that are quickly made, and which make excellent pickup work. Or the same idea can be carried out In lace braids, and the crochet needle employed to fill in the brides or connecting stitches which hold the various pieces of the pattern together. The little jacket is short in the back, sloping down to graceful point In the front, and dis plays the short and very loose half sleeve that marks so many of the seasons fa. vorites.
 The Extreme of Dainty Elegance
 in B1ouses.
 This is a fetching example of the ex- treme of dainty and costly elegance that prevails where the lingerie blouse of to- day is concerned. The original, the sub ject of the photograph, is an imported model, for which the moderate sum of S75 is demanded; our Uncle Sam having added some 60 per cent. duty to the original cost price in Paris. and bringing such possessions in the realms of luxuries rather than necessities. The design Is one that may readily be copied by skilled needlewoman, but both time and patience are necessary to its completion. The yoke is of narrow valenciennes entre- deux that follows a somewhat intricate pattern. the strips being Joined with fancy fagotting stitches Alternate strips of plain and tucked linen batiste make the body of the blouse, the tucked part being strapped at close intervals with the lace; and this same being applied In an original and effective design on the sleeve. The embroideries that decorate the front are wrought after the blouse itself Is flushed, and are of the extremely heavy blind variety, the design being well pad ded underneath so that 1t stands out in bold relief. The fastening, as usual. Is in the back; and the shoulder line follows the new broad shape. rods of feather bone being looped in the seam to hold out the full sleeve at the top.

FRUIT INSTEAD OF DRUGS.
Remedial Qualities May Be Preserved
by Home Manufacture.

The remedial properties of berries,
all Of which are of great value in diff
ferent diseases, may be preserved
through the home manufacture of cor
dials, shrubs, vinegars, ETC., and by
drying, in which state they are to
be stepped, strained, and the water
used as needed. Cherries, greengage
plums, peaches and apricots share in
this value with the berries. Grapes
are second only to figs for use in dis
orders which arise from a torpid or
congested state of the intestines.
Health depends so largely upon the
regularity of the functions of the
bowels that attention to them is of
the utmost Importance. An excellent
hg preparation is an effusion by steep
Ing one ounce of senna in a pint of
boiling water; select one pound of
plump, dried figs, and, having placed
them in layer in an earthen dish.
pour over them the well-steeped and
strained senna tea. Place this in
a moderate oven and allow them to
remain until the fruit has entirely
absorbed the liquid. Put this in a
closed jar, and for use, one fig eaten
on retiring is a dose for any or
dinary case of constipation. Pine

diseases when taken with other food.

acid attacks the lining of the stomach
itself. 1t is claimed that 1t has an
especial value in certain forms of
dyspepsia and in diphtheria, as its
juices will cut away mucus that moth
ing else can remove.
All fruits, however, do not affect
all persons alike. One should seek
to know what is suitable in his own
case, and not eat fruits merely be-
cause somebody has told him it in
good for him" Owing frequently
to idiosyncrasies, as well as to GER
tain physical conditions, fruits are
often the worst things one can eat.
Each person must be "a law unto
himself" in this matter.-The Com
moner.

Witnessed Marriage from Afar.

Getting man to witness a mar
riage ceremony at long distance by
looking through two windows and
across an area between adjacent
buildings is rather novel way of
obtaining a witness, but 1t served the
purpose at Portland. Ore, recently
of legally and securely tying the mat
rimonial knot that made Manuel Pires
and Grace Sophia Schuster one. The
ceremony was performed in the law
office of Justice Waldemar Seton, on
the third floor of the Commercial
building. w. w. Espey, real estate
agent, was at work at his desk across
the area and Justice Seton asked him
to look across while he made the
couple one. The mother of the bride
was the other witness. When the
knot had been tied Espey noted that
the bridegroom failed to kiss the
bride. Hi, there, young mani" he
shouted across the area; you for
got to kiss the bride" "She won't
hold still long enough" shouted back
the bridegroom. Then Judge Seton
brought the marriage certificate
around to Espey and secured his sig
nature.

THE BUTTER BILLS.
Two Ways in Which They Can Be
Materially Decreased.

A thrifty housewife declares that
her butter bills have fallen off one
quarter since she began serving her
butter in the form of butterballs.
Apart from the economy of the thing,
there is no question as to the COM
parative daintiness and attractiveness
of serving butter in one wholesale
lump, and in a collection of dainty,
symmetrical balls. Abroad, where
fresh. unsalted butter is served as
a matter of course, it generally comes
on the table in a sequence of little
dabs or long, shallow roll. People
who have acquired the fresh butter
taste find 1t hard to go back to the
salty product of the American cream
cry, and there is no reason why they
should provided there is some one in
the family with sufficient leisure to
make a little butter two or three
times a week. A quart of double
cream will make nearly pound of
butter and any child with strength
enough to use a rotary beater can
do the rest.
