Hat Ouills the Rage.

Quilts and eagles feathers p%rotrude
so persistently from all the new hats
that the never-ending question of how
to place and fasten them results. Put
them outside of the brim in every case
where the hat is shaped so that you
can, and conceal the edges from under
a large straw buckle or fiat rosette of
velvet ribbon. The ribbon is laid on
tiny pleats or gathers, the inner end
being curved around ike a straw
crown, and the quill: coming out
through it.
Or, another way: Sew the quilts to
the side of the u%pturned brim, draw
your velvet ribbon from around the
crown across them, and lay over this
a circle of gathered velvet ribbon. let
ting it form a buckle holding the other
ribbon down. A third way was seen
in a narrow. Alpine.shaped hat. III
which two quilts were pointed back
ward from each side of the crown. A
band of red velvet was set over the
crown and three circular buckles made
of red beads ,Eere placed over it along
the front, tho quilts being thrust under
the two end ones.

Paul, but Paul wrote it. There was
not anybody else great enough to write

No angel or human being could do

and investigating mind, an earnest
seeker after knowledge, and above
all, possessed of q wonderfully sympa'
thetic nature.
In 1s45 she married Isaac Pinkham,
a builder and real estate operator, and
their early married life was marked by
prosperity and happiness. They had
four children, three sons and q
daughter.
In those good old fashioned days it
was common for mothers to make
their own home medicines from roots
and herbs, natures w remedies
calling in q physician only in specially
urgent cases. By tradition and ex.
perience many Of them gained a won
derful knowledge of the curative prop
critics Of the various roots and herbs.
Mrs. Pinkham took a great interest
in the study of roots and herbs, their
characteristics and power over disease
She maintained that just as nature sc
bountifully provides in the harvest,
fields and orchards vegetable foods Of
all kinds; so, if we but take the pains
to find them, in the roots and herbs
of the field there are remedies ex'
pressly designed to cure the various
ills and weaknesses of the body, and
it was her pleasure to search these out,
and prepare simple and effective medi
cines for her own family and friends
Chief of these was a rare combina'
ton Of the choicest medicinal roots
and herbs found best adapted for the
cure of the ills and weaknesses pecu'
liar to the female sex, and Lydia E.. Pink
hams friends and neighbors learned
that her compound relieved and cured
and it became quite popular among
them.
All this so far was done freely, with
out money and without price, as g
labor of love.
But in 1873 the financial crisis struck
Lynn. It's length and severity were too
much for the large real estateinterests
of the Pinkham family, as this class
of business suffered most from
fearful depression, so when the Centen
NAL year dawned it found their prop
erty swept away. Some other source
of income had to be found.
At this point Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound was made known

The White Paint Of h White House.

The White Paint of the White House..
The White House at Washington,
which has been the Kings Palace"
of the American People since it was
first occupied by President Madison in
1909, has recently undergone q tnor-
ough course Of remodelling, renovation
and repair. Every American citizen Is
owner of an undivided eighty or
eighty-fiv millionth part Of the White
House, as we'll as of the ether Public
Buildings and Monuments in the Cap
itol City. An item in the renovation
of he remodeled White House was
repainting. Every visitor in Washing
ton knows Why the White House is SO
called-because :: is literally q white
house." The exterior paint must there
fore be white. Now while the pure
white surfaces and simple lines Of the
White House, set in the midst Of green
lawns and beautiful trees, produce
q very satisfying effect Of dignited
simplicity, white paint from a practical
point of view, is about the most I'M
satisfactory Lind of paint that could
have been selected by the original de-
signers. First, becaus1 any White
paint is easily discolored by smoke and
dust, and, second, because ordinary
white paint itself gradually turns gray
or brownish yellow from exposure.
But white the White House is, and
white it must remain or 1t would no
longer be the white House." So the
~renovators, making the best of a dis
c%ouraging situation, sought for tie best
kind of white paint prOcurable. The
average citizen if asked TO guess what
kind Of paint they finally decided on
would probably answer-'wh:te lead
and OIL" but he would guess wrongly.
The paint ielected as the best obtain
able, was ready-mi1ed pa.l't. such as
can be bought in any well-furnished
village store. such as is used by more
than half Of tie eighty or eighty-hve
million o-yners Cf the White House on
their own homes. That one brand OF
mixed paint was used instead Of an
other is a mere accidental detail
there are fifty or q hundred brands on
the market mat might have oeen Sc
lected N other circumstances, and, in
fact, a different brand was ised in
painting the Capitol.
Every property owner, therefore.
who Paints his house wiIh a high
grade :oady-miXed paint is following
the example set by the Government
Authorities at Washington, who used
ready-mixed paint, because they could
find nothing else as good.

Modern I~dolatry.

Are we idolators, Lord? Is there
aught that We place before Thee? Are
our pleasures, our Ease, our gain, our
plan more to US than Thy favor, Thy
service, Thine honor, Thy will? Dost
Thou behold in us a city wholly given
to covetousness, which is idolatry! !
We know that we are tempted to sac
rifce unto our net, and burn incense
unto our drag; we know that some
times our trust seems more in man
than in God. Do Thou, o Lord, for.
give. Help us to keep ourselves from
idols. Amen.-Pacifc Baptist.
