BOUT THE FALL HATS.
Those for Evening Will Be Smaller,
Those for Day Larger.

While hats have shrunk in size for
evening, they have actually grown for
daytime wear, and one is greeted with
a spectacle which is as marvellous as
1t is extravagant. The day hats are
simply immense. HNg
Great big artificial birds will be
worn this fall, and this is good news
for the bird lover, who will not permit
herself to wear the real article The
artificial bird is just as handsome,
just as lifelike, just as fetching, and
1t Is said to wear great deal bet
ter. Moreover, it's colors are more al
Turing for it can be dyed into delicate
shades which just match the gown.
A novel fashion exhibition has just
taken place in New York. 1t was OF
peculiar interest to the feminine world
for two reasons. First, because 1t
served as an indication Of the fash
ions that are to come; and the Sec
ond reason of it's interest can be at
tributed to the fact that the exhibit
ton was for sweet charity's sake.
Seldom is there a fashion sale for
charitys sake. 1t was one OF the last
Of the sales conducted for the Cali
fornia sufferers, and the money melted
was devoted to the furnishing OF
clothes for the women school teach
ers bereft by the fire.
Of peculiar interest was the theater
hat room, for here was an alcOve de-
voted to the display Of the coming
theater hats of fall and winter. These
hats were so small that one is perfect
ly justified in predicting that the reign
of the big theater hat is over. The
spreading picture hat, the great wide
Gainsborough, the wonderful Romney,
the aggressive but picturesque Eng
lish walking hats and the plateau and
the Amazon, all seem to be thing
of the past where theater hats are
concerned, as a study of the new hats
will indicate.

USEFUL HOUSEHOLD HINTS.

If you are one OF chose people who
would love to make bread If it wasn't
for washing up the dishes, try greas-
ing the bread bowl all over inside
with lard, or use bread mixer.
If salt is added to the water in
which eggs are boiled, it will be
found an advantage in case any of
the eggs should be cracked. The egg
will boil until done, without any of
the white part leaking out of the
shell.
If pinch of soda be put in cold
water, and cabbage or caulif1ower
soaked in it, the Housekeeper tells
us that there will be no disagreeable
OdOr during the cooking process If
the cooking vessel is left uncovered.
Will the Housekeeper now tell us a
odorous onion?
Plenty Of padding, composed of old
carpet, quilts, ETC., placed on each
stair step under the carpet, not only
deadenS the noise, but materially
lengthens the life of the Garnet. In
the same way a good padding of news
papers placed on the kitchen table
or shelves, under the oil cloth, doubles
or trebles the life of the oilcloth.
Those who find nothing so restful
and cooling as a sponge bath, when
tired out and overheated in the sum-
mer, should add handful of salt to
the bath water. Nothing else had
such tonic effect or makes one feel
more fresh and rested. Many use
salt in the cold water also. They con-
slider that it's invigorating effect les
sens the tendency to taking cold.
Red wooden dresses are an eco
Romical investment for little girls
school dresses. A soft red wool is
becoming to almost any child. These
little dresses are very easily washed.
Warm soap suds should be used, with
a teaspoonful of beef gall added This
sets the color. Use warm rinsing
water and rinse as quickly as pos
sible. Dry the dress in the shade.
Roll it up before it is quite dry and
after it has laid at least half an hour,
press it on the wrong side with a
warm iron. When washed in this way
any red wooden goods will look as
good as new.

PENNIES FOR A COLLEGE.
One Hundred Thousand Workers Each
Give Penny to Ruskin College.

The British trade unions had not In
their origin any direct concern with
education, says the Fortnightly Re
view But it is fact of no ordinary
Significance that some of the leading
unions should be taking very great
interest In the higher edu cation of the
workman
For the last three years some 100,
900 workingmen, members of the
Amalgamated Society OF Engineers,
have made three levies OF one penny
each to help on the work Of Ruskin
college at Oxford. This levy pro
duces over $500 year, and by means
of it six engineers are maintained for
q years course of study at the col
lege.
Smaller but substantial sums have
been contributed to the. same institu.
ton by the London Society of Com.
positors, by the Lanarkshire Miners
County Union, by the Amalgamated
Association of Beamers, Twisters and
Drawers, by the Derbyshire miners
and the Durham miners, while large
number of other societies appear
among. the donors and subscribers.

AT THE SUMMER HOTEL.
Experience of Winston Churchill Fa-
miIar to Many.

Winston Churchill in an address
that he made in Concord recently
praised the New Hampshire farmer.
ours" he said, lis state fitted
above all others for a summer resort.
New Hampshire, with its superb eli.
mate, it's mountains, it's lakes and
forests, will in a generation or two
be one great pleasure, ground-a vast
park dotted with beautiful villas, to
which will come each summer fam
lilies from all parts of America.
In anticipation of this many farm
ers are learning to conduct hotels.
They are building cottages for sum-
mer visitors. Some of them, too, are
taking bOarderS.
And | am glad to say that the New
Hampshire farmer is in a position to
take boarders, because, unlike the
farmers in other states that l could
name, he does not send all his good
things to the city l once boarded at
a fine big farm, but the fare was
wretched-canned vegetables, con-
densed milk and so on.
"'By Jove,' | said one morning at
breakfast, as | pushed my egg cup
from me, these eggs are really not
as fresh as those l get in New York
My farmer host snorted.
That's rank prejudice on your
part, Mr.. Churchill he said. It's
from New York that all our eggs
come"

Greatest, as we'll as most common
of all cacti is the soap weed which
grows wherever cacti grow, and which
is mans only friend in the great south
western deserts of the United States
and In Mexico. 1t furnishes always o

name indicates, 1t can be manufac
tured into a soap, perhaps the least
alkaline soap ever made, even though
the weed itself may grow in the center
