Snake Seeing Bulge.
A North Dakota paper construes it
to be a sign of an open winter that it's
editor should have seen snakes out
burrowing in the snow. Some people

Why All This Talk?
What is the use of this talk of OBJ
position to Knute Nelson? Are not
three-fourths of the legislators-elect
already pledged to support the little
Norwegian? Of course they are. And
who ever heard of a Minnesota legis-
lator going back on his word?-Min-

Is Being Worked Out All Right
By working at both ends the rail-
roads will eventually be able to give
the middle square deal. This is be-
ing brought about by increasing the
wages of the employees and decreasing
the freight and passenger rates. The
problem is being worked out all right.

HANDKERCHIEF KIMoNo.

Four handkerchiefs are all that are required for this dainty garment. Blue makes the prettiest. Here is a crude drawing that will show you just how to put together. There is one seam in the back and one on each shoulder. No cutting. You simply leave a half finger at each seam, which is turned down. and forms the neck. Then you start from the lower points in front and stitch up about half way. This forms the sleeves. These make inexpensive as we'll as pretty and useful gifts.

 Shortly before 5 o'clock yesterday steam seemed to be issuing from all
 parts of the boiler near the Martin
 property and men began rushing about and the engineer began to pull
 his fire. In few moments the source of the trouble was found in the supply pipe which runs to the boiler. A piece of newspaper had entered the pipe completely choking it. But short time more and some thing more serious would have oc- cured as the boiler is near one of the busiest corners in the borough.

THE OLDEST DIAMOND FIELDS.
Kohinoor Probably Came from Them
 About $50 Years Ago.

In a recent report of the geological survey of India there is an interesting account of the Panna diamond fields of central India Historically this country is believed to be the original home of the diamond and from them it Is supposed that the famous kohi noor was extracted some three and a half centuries ago. the earliest dia- monds dating some g years previous ly.
 Of late years India has quite re- tired from the field as precious stone producer to any extent or value. but from the account given 1t should be worth the while of a small syndicate to take up these diamond fields. says the Pioneer. and work them systemati- cally. though it Is said that neither in luster nor price do the stones found compare with the yield of the South African fields.
 The methods. however. now in vogue mean merely superficial treat ment. following the lines which have been in vogue for centuries. with the probable result that the strata con taining the most valuable deposits of stones are not reached. From geo logical point of view there are said to be diamond bearing eongiomerates over several areas. vhIch would sd- init Of deep shaft sinking. and sys- tematic mining under competent con troI being csrrissi o1 p-nftabiy.

NEW WINTER WRAPS
GARMENTS ARE MADE UP IN ALL
 MATERIALS.
Dainty an6 Rich Effects Can be ob. tained Without Lavish Expenditure of Money-Should Match or
 Tone with Gown in Color.


 Picturesque, elegant, becoming, ap propriate and new in every detail, the new winter wrap Is thing of beauty if of marked extravagance. And this latter, after all, depends much upon your own cleverness, for that untail ored, draped effect, which the experi' enced home dressmaker knows is the easiest to obtain in cloak making, is perhaps the seasons chief character istic.
 Materials, too, may depend upon the size of your pocketbook; there are many silky broaodcloths with a sub stantial interllning to furnish the re. Quired degree of warmth, for 1t must be confessed that of this the present style of outer covering furnishes but 8 small portion.
 Liberty satins and panne velvets are the materials most in vogue, lending their wonderful draping qualities to those interesting models in which, everybody is saying. the greatest cou. turiers of Paris have made their most marked successes. Not satisfied with the wealth of beauty in the material, the rich fashion of fur trimming is re vived. supplemented in many cases by bands of heavy lace threaded with gold or silver or tinted to match the very foundation that they cover. And in every case there is one or more of those quaint silk tassels, without which you can't be really French this winter. Hood effects lend them selves happily to the latter touch.
 To crown all, the wrap matches, or at least tones with, your gown in color. A mode for the chosen few, it would seem; yet every one can at least sometimes be just right by deciding first on her very best evening gown and then getting the wrap to suit it.
 Very few white wraps are worn. though a recent model of creamy vel vet with big brown fur collar and cuffs was an extremely distinguished combination.
 As for shape, the Empire seems to have got confounded with the Japan. ese. giving us something that re- sembles a fantastic raglan and yet is radically unlike all three. But you may depend upon it that the body part is alYays Empire in its effect, the shoulder raglan in shape, with the sleeve flaring from it like a kimono sleeve, often falling in short, loose bell-shape several inches above the elbow, over an undersleeve of lace lined with satin. This IS very compli. cated. however. so the simpler method of gathering the top sleeve into . fur or lace cuff. which ends with lit tic butterfly bow of velvet just on the elbow, is most in favor.
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1906-12-27

More lace than ever is used on the elaborate stoles and muffs of the year, with rich effect.
 Fancy lace veils are more and more in evidence, black or brown being more seen than colors.
 It seems to be permissible to wear a brown veil with almost any color hat. though it is then well to have brown gloves.
 The wearing of little lace or em- broidered linen sets over the collar and cuffs of tailored coats is as much in vogue as ever. These sets must be of very good quality. however. or their only effect is to cheapen the suit.

Leather Headed Hat Pins.

To match belts made of twisted leather. which will wear almost ever. lastingly, a clever worker in leather has invented twisted leather hat pins. These are a novelty and look well in many coloTs of leather: they are strong. too. and therefore appeal tc sportsromen and lovers of oEtdcor games. such as golf and hockey.
