building is ten cents or ten thousand
dollars. That evening thirty reporters
come rushing over to that boys house
and ask for his photograph and his
statement Of the thrilling occurrence,
and the next morning all the papers
have an account reading.
Remarkable Heroism of an Eleva-
tor BOy-When the first alarm Of fire
was given at the Strawberry Sky
Sc1aper yesterday afternoon, J.
Charles Blank, in charge of the main
elevator, at once assembled to the top
floor to receive the frightened tenants,
and with a GOODNESS almost unparal-
Ieled continued the work in fame and
smoke until the last soul was beyond
danger. Such nerve and GOODNESS has
not been seen in this country since the
days of Washington. Not a skip=not
a break-not the slightest token OF ex-
element. All hail to this brave and
noble boy. We understand that a pub
lie subscription is already under way
for his benefit, and that his salary Is
to be doubled next week. America is
safe as long as she has such heroes. -

And ere it was night

HONE LIFE

like to contribute our praise and ap-
plause. The general beauty bee that
has been buzzing for the last ten
years, the interest in athletics and
in health culture, have all worked
together for great good. Women have
not only become more robust, but
they are a thousand times happier
than in the old days when mothers
prayed that their daughters be not
afflicted with good looks. Many a
woman's existence has been hopeless
ly ruined because she believed her
plain appearance to be lifelong af-
Fiction.
The better looking woman be-
comes, the younger she feels, the
lighter is her heart, and the greater
and nobler are her ambitions. With
a beautiful exterior, she is anxious to
have everything to match, so she
beauties her mind by study and read
ind and embellishes her heart with
charity and kindness.
Good looks, like many other bless
ings, are often valued too late. 1t
is when woman has lost them that
she sets about to cultivate and cherish
the remnants Of beauty that are left.

Patting and smoothing down a dish
Of mashed potatoes spoils their fla
vor and texture.
A fourth of teacup Of strong bor-
ak water in pint of raw starch, will
make collars and cuffs stiff and
glossy.
The oil left from a box of sardines
is an excellent addition to cod fish
balls, or any other kind of minced
fish instead of butter.
Faster for fastening on wall paper:
Mix pound of -four with cold water,
add five quarts of boiling water, and
stir until thick as starch. Just before
using stir in half a pint of dissolved
glue.
In making paste to fill cracks in
floors, thicken the -four with saw dust
instead of paper. The work is more
quickly done and is more satisfactory.
This is good to fill holes in plaster
ing, Also
Do not put hot water or any kind
of water upon woolens that have had
liquid grease spilled upon them. First,
sprinkle buckwheat or rye -four over
the place and let it absorb the grease.
brush off the flour and apply then
fresh flour until all the grease is abb
sorbed.

CARING FOR THE SUMMER HOSE.

That "a stitch in time saves nine,"
is never more true than when it is
applied to filling in with neat darn
ing the first tiny breaks in delicate
hosiery, and hose should be filled
with crumpled tissue paper and hung
in the most excluded window to let
the air blow through them, and there
is nothing nicer than mending tissue
for repairing hosiery of silk or Isle
thread. Lace-wOven and fine silk hose
can be cleaned and freshened by
washing through deodorized benzine
and then rinsing through clean ben
zine Black hose are apt to be of
a dull, greenish color after several
washings and after washing through
warm suds they should be rinsed in
clear water and then in water to
which tablespoonful of good vinegar
has been added. Nice hosiery will not
only look better but will last longer
if Numbered often, for if allowed to
dry when moist with perspiration, the
hard rubbing necessary to get them
clean again will soon wear them out.
Delicate colored hose, such as pink,
rod or pale blue should be soaked
over night in a pail of warm water,
containing several tablespoonful of
turpentine, then they may be washed
afterwards without fading, by rubbing
them through a strong lather of white
ivory soap and warm soft water, but
the all-white hose are improved by
soaking in the suds over night. Black
and colored hose should be washed
and rinsed as quickly as possible and
hung in a shady place to dry, then il
they are pulled into shape several
times during the drying process they
will dry with very few wrinkles

THE INDEPENDENT PATTERN
INFANTS SLIP

Such a simple slip as this one
should be found in every infants out
fit. 1t can be laundered with perfect
ease. 1t is dainty and charming and
involves the least possible labor in
the making. In the illustration fine
French nainsoOk is finished with
landings and frills of lace, but en-
broidery can be substituted for this
last if better liked and all the mate
rails that are used for infants slips
are appropriate.
The little garment is made with
fronts and back and Is gathered at
the neck edge and drawn up by means
of tapes inserted in the casing. The
sleeves are in bishop style and the
closing is made invisible at the back.
The quantity of material required
for the medium size is two and one
eighth yards 36 inches wide with two
and one-fourth yards of Insertion.
The pattern $500 is cut in one size
only.
