FOREIGN POSTAGE is REDUCED.



Universal Congress Agrees Upon .
Rate Beneficial to Commerce.
In connection with the work of the
recent universal postal congress. the
Postofice Department has given out the
following statement as 20 the effect of
one of the provisions of that convention
as affecting this country:
The universal postal congress, recently
in convention at Rome, Italy, ordered
substantial reduction in letter postage by
increasing the unit of weight, effective on
and after Oct. /, 1907, from fifteen to
twenty grams, and providing that while
postage on the first twenty grams shall
remain at % confines G cents), every
additional twenty grams shall be at the
rate of 10 confines c. cents).
Great Britain aSd the United States
strongly urged that the anti of weight for
them should be fixed at one ounce. as it
would be extremely difficult FOR them to
express an equivalent weIgat for twenty
grams, not having adopted the metric sys-
TEN. This request was granted. This
will give the two great countries excep-
tionally low rates for the exchange of
letters. Under the reduced rates a letter
to Great Britain will cost cents for the
first ounce and 8 cents for the second
ounce, or 8 cents for two ounces. In
other words, when the new rates become
effective a letter packet weighing six
ounces can be sent to Great Britain at
the rate now charged Tor twc-ounce

Several Chicago young women re-
ceiyed the other gay the kind of diplo-
mas which husbands would like to see
hanging in conspicuous place on the
kitchen wall. The diplomas certify
that the girls are qualified to keep
house for men receiving ten dollars a
week The graduating essays consist
ed of exhibits of breakfasts, luncheons
and dinners. Each dish bore label
announcing its cost One girl showed
a breakfast for four prepared for nine
teen cents, and another had produced
a dinner for the same number, consist
ing Of meat, two vegetables, salad and
a pudding, at a total cost of only forty
cents. or ten cents a person. The best
proof ~ the success of the course of
instruction lies in the fact that the

Yersai one. and jackets. hats. belts,
shoes and parasols are their main out
let's
The short wasted effects that char
acter.ze present styles contrast strong
ly with the exaggerated dips Of several
seasons ago.
Foulard silks are Infinitely softer and
prettier this year than they have ever
been and many women are using them
for dressy little lace-trimmed gowns.
Rather new note is the lace girdle.
This is narrow fichu of silk lace. un-
lined and draped around the waist so
that the points form the wide effect in
front.
Many dressy frocks show entire
sleeves of lace. In this case the bodice
is cut with deep shoulder running
out over the top Of the lace sleeves
like a cap.
Useful, comfortable taffeta paletots
are always worn. Every woman num-
bers one of these in black in her ward
robe. and she is wise If she has one of
color as well.
Dog collars of rose gold are charm
ing worn oser the lingerie waist, but
whether a girl can have one of these
or not she is pretty sure to wear pref
ty string of beads or a necklace of some
sort.
Quite a novelty are the striped slip
pers. These are white duck or canvas,
striped lengthwise with fine line of
blue or red. the top bound with this
color and finished with ribbon bow to
match.
Strasse buckles are being used on
many of the French dresses of sheer
materials and the buttors are more
ornamental than ever. Those Of cary
ed Chinese ivory are extremely popular
this season.
The "Reboux" veil, fresh from Paris,
Is striking. 1t is a bright-colored, dot
ted veil. edged with two-inch-wide
plating and so draped over the hat
that the upper plating is turned down
to fall an inch or two below the hat
brim, while the lower one comes just
above the shoulder line.

She Was sure to See an Attractive

Her point of view was so original that

The rule for frilling is one and a
quarter the length of the edge to be
trimmed.
In facing a sleeve turn it, and place
the facing inside the sleeve before sew
ing it on.
Gathers should always be set on the
right side, but never with a needle; use
large pin.
When sewing on a button place the
knot on the right side Of the cloth d.
reilly under the button.
In sewing a seam put the stitches
closely together, but lightly, into the
cloth, being careful not to pull the
thread tight, as this causes the seam to
draw.
Always use when sewing double
thread for gathering and as fine a
thread and needle as the garment will
allow. When threading your needle
make the knot on the end broken from
the spool.
