GRATED.

Dublin, September Worldwide
Iinterst is being arou ed in the forth
coming Irish International Exhibition
in Dublin The fact that ireland is in
post on to hold an industrial exhi

which have produced in a few years
what amounts TO an industrial awak.
ening.
1t is this awakening which gives the
Irish irrational Exhibition of 1907
a peculiar significance ana lifts It
above the plane Of a mere show 1t
will mark an epoch in Irelands adj
vance as noteworthy in its way as was
the Philadelphia Centennial of 1876,
The movement fer this reorganiZa-
tion OF Irish agricultural and indus
trial life began in 1889 and N five
years it had made 50 much Roadway
that q meeting was held in Dublin to
inaugurate he Irish Agricultural Or
ganiation Societyt commonly known
as the A @. 81 BY 1908 the So
cicty had a membership OF 10000, rep
resenting 100 900 persons. Over 500
societies had been establshed--th
included $50 dairy and lao agricul.
tura societies, nearly 200 agricultural
banks, so home industries societies, !
and 40 others with various objects.
The trade turnover Of these socie, |
ties reached above $l0G00.000.
Since 1908 the societys record has /
been one Of steady advancement and /
today there are nearly GOO societies /
all over the country In fact the pro I
gress has been so great that it was /
felt that the time had come when the |
rest Of the world ought to see what /
had been done for the upbuiding of /
Irish industries and manufacture !
This feeling eliminated in the deter !

The work is already so well ad- |
RANGED that the Committee have an
loeneed that the inaugural ceremon.

thus movement, begun in a quiet,
way to arouse a people to

powers, is well on the way TO a fitting

Exhibition Of 1907.

For Babies on Sleeping Cars.


When travelling with a baby in a
sleeping car. says Good Housekeep-
ing. insure a good nights rest for
yourself and the baby, not to men
ton your fellow travellers, by putting
him to sleep in a little hammock
which is to be found in the berth.
This procedure is practicable for all
infants under one year OF age, and
IS the only absolutely safe sleeping
place for them.
Provide yourself in advance with a
piece Of cotton rope two feet in
length. With this one end Of the
hammock is to be made fast to the
lower end Of the chain or cable by
which the upper berth is suspended;
the other end of the hammock is left
on the hook from which it usually
hangs
The hammock is thus suspended d.
agonally across the berth; now put
in two pillows end 20 end. These
serve the double purpose Of spreader
and bedding If the hammock is
strung tightly it will swing clear of
the person sleeping below and the
rougher the road the more the ham
mock swings and the sonnder the
baby sleeps

TO TEST FABRICS.
SOME VALUABLE THINGS FOR
THE SHOPPER TO KNOW.
How to Detect the Difference in the
Quality Of Liren-Findino a
Cotton and Linen
Mixture.

Fineness of the threads in the
weave denote the quality Of linen and
the greater the number to the square
inch the better the sheeting and the
napery.
Between the real grades II is more
difficult to tell which is the better, and
then small magnifying glass such as
/ all linen clerks carry should be asked
/ for by the shopper and the one who
I is interested can count the threads
| herself and determine which is the
! better
Threads pulled from the edge OF a
| piece of linen may fray while those
| taken from cotton snap when pulled
in two. An old.time test is to wet
the finger place ii under a piece Of
linen and watch the surface get
damp.
Ii the moisture does not appear, YOU
may be perfectly sure that the goods
is cotton, for it does not absorb water
as linen does
Another test for linen is TO ravel
one thread of the warp ami another of
the woof and burn them,
If one is cotton it will be charred
Immediately, while il will take the
linen trife longer TO be destroyed
There is less chance of being mis-
taken in buying silk than in purchas
ing linens and an all-silk piece can
be told Immediately by the touch
There IL quite little difference to be
considered in Judging certain silks
for some are more valuable on &C.
count of their heavy qualities, while
others are costly on account of their
sheerness
Pongees that are being sold SO eX-
tensively this season cost more when
they are thick and heavy than when
Of lighter grade
With louisine the softer and finer
the quality the more expensive The
softer taifeta is the better, as a rule,
especially when il has a high sheen
or luster 1t also has an unmistak
able swish that stamps it as good as
soon as heard Materials in which
the threads running both ways are
silk, are springy and 10 the touch are
full of life while those with half silk
and cotton are not so elastic.
A lighted match touched to the
threads will show at once whether
one is of cotton. for if it is it will
roll up in smoke before the silken
one has fairly started TO burn,
The same test applied TO wool will
show quite as quickly whether there
are any cotton threads for they will
burn rapidly and leave the wooden or
worsted ones burning slowly. and
making a black charred ash that has
an unmistakable odor of burning wool
A piece OF all wool is very soft to
the touch, while one of half wool or
cotton has very hard surface, aud
worsted is quite rough when rubbed
test that never fails on woolens
is made with muriatic or nitric acid.
A piece of all wool dipped in either OF
these powerful chemicals turns it to
a reddish yellow color. While If there
are cotton threads they are destroyed,
leaving the piece with nothing but
the yellow warp or wool.

 There were twenty entries for the stake originally. but seven scratches were announced last night, while an additional entry was placed on the list.
 About the stables early to-day Nut boy, local horse owned by J. A. Crabtree. seemed to be the favorite for the event. although Dr Chase and Ali Jay had many packers.

AGAINST FEE SYSTEM.
The Judicial System of Vermont Will
 Soon Be Reorganixed.

St Albans. Vt, Aug 24.-A reor- ganization of the judicial system of Vermont is recommended in the re- port just completed of the committee of the Vermont State Bar associa- tion appointed by President H. Hen " Powers at the annual meeting in Montpelier on October "A last to con- sider this matter. The committee has framed its report in the form of a bill to be introduced at the next ses- sion of the legislature. A feature of this bill is the fact that it provides that no fees shall be demanded or received by any judges. The bill calls for the establishment of supreme court of five judges to sit as a court of appeals and circuit court of five judges to hold county court sessions in connection with the assistant judges now elected by each county. It leaves in blank the salaries of the judges. The supreme court is to con- sist of chief justice and four as- sociate judges, to be elected as pro- vided by the constitution. The i've circuit judges are to be elected by the general assembly, each to serve for two years, and the one first elect ed to act as chief Justice. Leaving the amount of salary blank and pro- viding that necessary expenses shall be paid by the state. the bill says re- garding fees:
 No judge shall demand or receive fees for ofiicial services performed by him either as judge or chancellor"
 Under the present system the su- preme court consists of a chief jus tice and six assistant judges. These judges also preside over the county courts with the aid of two assistant county judges elected by each coun- ty. In addition there is a court of claims consisting of three judges.
 The committee of the bar associa- tion which prepared the new bill 1 composed of Alfred A. Hall of St Albans. ]. D. Cushman of Burling- ton, John H. Senter of Montpelier. w. B. C. Stickney of Bethel, T. w. Moloney of Rutland. Clark C. Fits of Brattleboro and John Young of Newport. Mir Pitts is attorney gen eral of Vermont.
