TRAVELS BY AUTO.
New Strstagem of the Gypsy Moth.
How the Pest Looks.

new charge against the automobile
is that it is furnishing free transpor-
tation to the disreputa bic gypsy moth,
which, having devastated Massachu-
sets. las escaped into New Hamp-
shire and Connecticut and is now be
ginning TO invade New York. The fe
male gypsy cannot fly. so the spread
OF the pest is attributed to the inter
vention of vehicles, of which the auto
mobile is the longest traveller. 40
companying the gypsy moth on Its
journeys is the brown tail moth, which
can fly very well and thus has larger
radius of action. State Entomologist

warnings of the approach Of this wing

PUTTING UP DILL PICKLES.
Important to Remember If You Would
Get Best Results.

Take a big stone crock or a keg
without a head. Select cucumbers
from six to eight inches in length,
wash and wipe carefully. Boil to-
gether three gallons water and two
pounds coarse salt. Skim. If any
water has evaporated during the boil
ing add enough more to make the orr
ginal quantity. Lay the cucumbers
in the bottom of the jar or keg, with
a small red pepper, a bunch OF dill
seed in stalk and a layer of grape
leaves to cover. Proceed in this way
until the vessel is filled, topping all
with a layer of cabbage leaves. On
the very top put a good big stone to
keep the pickles under the brine. Pour
in the salt and water still hot, and let
the vessel stand until quiet fermen-
tation takes place. In two or three
weeks the cucumbers will be transpar-
ent, like amber, with grateful sub

The Ideal Family Laxative.

Is one that can be used by the entire
family, young and old, weak and
strong, without any danger of harmful
effects. It should have properties
which insure the same dose always
having the same effect, otherwise the
quantity will have to be increased and
finally lose it's effect altogether. These
properties can be found in that old
family remedy, Brandreth's Pills, be-
cause it's ingredients are of the purest
herbal extracts, and every pill is kept
for three years before being sold,
which allows them to mellow. We do
not believe there is laxative on the
market that is so carefully made.
Brandreth's Pills are the same fine
laxative tonic pills your grandparents
used. They have been in use for over
a century and are for sale everywhere,
either plain or sugar-coated.

THEY CURE RHEUMATISM
4 Particularly Painful Form o. This
Disease Yields to Or. Williams
Pink Pills

OF the many forms which rheumatism
takes, that which is popularity known as
sciatic rheumatism probably fortunes its
victim more than any other. That DIR.
Williams Pink Pills have cured this
stubborn as well as painful trouble is
fact proven by the following statement,
and no sufferer who reads this can at
ford to let prejudice stand in the way OF
trying these blood-making pills.
Rheumatism is now generally re-
cognized as a disease of the blood. DIR.
Williams Pink Pills intellectually
make-pure blood. When the blood is
pure there can be no rheumatism. Mrs.
Thomas Bresnehan, of "a Mill street,
Watertown, N. Y, says:
"My trouble began with severe cold
which I took about week before
Christmas in 1904. I began to have
rheumatic pains in my back and limbs
and after time I couldn't straighten
up. suffered the most awful pain for
months and much of the time was un-
able to leave the house and 1 had to take
hold of chair in order to walk and
sometimes could not stand up at all.
The disease was pronounced sciatic
rheumatism and, although had a good
physician and took his medicine faith
fully, I did not get any better. After
some six weeks of this terrible pain and
suffering l tried DIR. Williams Pink
Pills and that is the medicine that cured
me. After a few boxes the pain was
less intense and could see decided inn
provement. continued to take the pills
until was entirely cured and 1 have
never had any return of the trouble"

Ths Zulu War Cry.

The Zulu war cry, used whenever
they take the field by the South Afri-
can footballers now in London, has
puzzled our newspapers, not one Of
which seems able to spell it correctly,
says Notes and Queries. The Daily
Express gives it as 'Tgamilzho," and
the Daily Mail as "Gammillo." The
cry really consists of two words, and
should be written 'Igama layo."
'Igama" is Zulu for name" and
"layo" is a possessive pronoun, mean
ing either "his" or their" Thus the
Daily Mail, although quite wrong in
its photography OF the cry, is right in
saying that it merely means THAT is
his name" The explanation is that
Zulu etiquette does not allow warriors,
when they rush into battle, to men
ton the names of their enemies, but
the leaders shout out, That is his
name" pointing to the victims with
their spears.

FOR GOOD EFFECTS.
THINGS the HOME DRESSMAKER
SHOULD REMEMBER.
Proper Fitting Of Bodice Has Much to
Do with Appearance-New
Ideas in Cushions and
PilIows-CoIlars.

With a straight seam, it is well to
remember that in fitting bodice on
an older woman, particularly on the
woman who is inclined to be stout,
the back seam should be kept com
promisingly straight and the side back
seams should be curved IN at the waist
line. The successful appearance of
woman's figure at this age very large
~ depends on the fit OF the back of
the dress, where flatness and length
are required. In the front of bodice
the darts should be extremely shallow
The newest long cushions and pill
lows are covered with colored silk
or oriental satin, with gathered puff
of about five inches deep at each end,
but not reaching beyond The muslin
cover reaches only to the commence
ment of the puff The effect is very
pretty, especially if the muslin cover,
with ribbon run through Sits, is used.
The ribbon should, of course, be OF
the same color as the puffs and vary
from two to four inches in width, fin
ished off with a bow at one corner.
Bed pillows and also soft cushions
frequently have soft sash ribbon
widths run in. The coverlids are
trimmed to correspond.
Dainty lace collars, made of sheer
net, with insertion motifs and edging,
will be smart for afternoon and even
ing wear this year. They are much
10 70
last season and are consequently more
expensive, for the very finest of i'm
ported laces are used on a net back
ground. Fortunately for women who
are unable to buy costly neckwear,
the styles of these new ones are quite
simple and can be easily made at
home, once the net is shaped to fit
the neck of the wearer. The decora-
ton added by appliqueing val lace
or even pieces of filet is comparative
" simple. Attaching the tabs in front
for a finish, either by cutting away
the net and inserting handsome
pattern or by adding round or oblong
piece to the bottom of the collar
proper, is the most difficult part OF
the making Around the edges Mt top,
bottom and both ends pretty narrow
piece of "val' insertion should be ruff
fed on, so that it gives small ruch-
ing effect that is becoming to most
any shape face. To prevent these
stocks from being flimsy and to hold
them in place and give body TO the
sheer materials a small silk-coVered
fiat or round piece of featherbone
should be sewed to the top and bot
tom and attached to the ends.

THE TICKING OF THE CLOCK.
Soothing Company to Some Sleepers
Cause of WakefuIness in Others.

Not all people," said the jeweler,
like the ticking of a clock; it is
pleasant sound to most people, but
not to all.
Some people, clock lovers these,
couldn't sleep without clock in the
same room. Its ticking is company
and it scares away the spooks. Such
people would wake up if the clock
should stop in the middle of the
night.
But there are other people who
can't sleep with clock in the same
room and who, if they found them
selves in strange place anywhere
with a clock in their sleeping apart
ment, would stop the clock before
they went to bed.
"Of course there is much of habit
in this; but We have our fancies about
clocks, as we do about all things
else"

be said here by way of explanation
that Mrs. Flynn is the cashier of the
