Home-Made Jackets.

The Jackets that are so extremely
fashionable are not impossible for
amateurs to make, provided a good
pattern is at hand. There must be
sufficient material used in the fronts
of the jacket to permit of It's being
fastened, although the design is to
have the coat worn open, showing a
waistcoat or fancy waist. A mistake
that amateurs are apt to make is
that of cutting the fronts of the
Jacket too narrow in order to gain
The effect that is given in the model.
With sufficient width the fronts can
be turned back If so desired, but even
when left to hang loose they will
not look too wide, for they will stay
In place.
A good investment for any woman
who has her gowns made at home is

There are any number of designs to
choose from this season, and the
prices vary greatly, so that it is pos
sible to purchase them at compara-
lively low cost. With a jacket of
this description one gown will do
much duty.--Harper's Bazar.

Canada is winning the unenviable
reputation of AN Eveless Eden. The
men outnumber the women, and even
immigration does not mend matters,
for 1t is figured that of the $4,000
new settlers who have arrived In
Canada since the first OF the year,
not more than eight per cent. OF
them have been women. OF this
eight per cent. the majority were
married women. In the western
part of the Dominion the lack of wo-
men is a serious handicap to the de-
velopment of the country. The set
tiers cannot find wives, and as wo-
man plays Just as important a part
as man in the drama of q new coun-

Dodge First-Hand Photographs.

Can you justly apply the word
vain" to women of society who,
knowing how unreliable the camera
may be, prefer to have newspapers
and magazines print pictures of
themselves that have been photo
graphed from paintings, asks the
New York Press. Many a pretty
woman turns out the reverse of pret-
ty on the plate, for her charm may
be depend on expression, rather than
symmetry of feature. Whatever the
sitter's greater charm may be, It is
not lost by the portarit painter who
knows his business. Indeed the pic
lures of some society women who
have no objection to posing in the
public eye are SO exceeding lovely in
publication that If the names were
not printed beneath, their friends
would say: who's that?"

FOUR YEARS OF AGONY.
Whole Foot Nothing But Proud Flesh
Had to Use trutehes - "Cuticura
Remedies Best ON Earth,u

"ln the year 1906 the side of my right
foot was cut off from the little toe down
to the heel, and the physician who had
charge OF me was trying to sew up the
uide of my foot, but with no success. At
last my whole foot and way up above my
cali was nothing but proud flesh. / suf-
iered untold agonies for four years, and
tried different physicians and all kinds of
ointments. i could walk only with
crutches. In two weeks afterwards | saw
change in my limb. Then l began using
Cuticura Soap and Ointment often during
the day, and kept it up for seven months,
when my limb was healed up just the
same as if l never had trouble. 1t is
eight months now since l stopped using
Cutcura Remedies, the best on Gods
earth. l am working at the present day,
after five years OF suffering. The cost of
Cuticura Ointment and Soap was only 50,
but the doctors bills were more like 5000.

There is a new nail polish that is
said to be excellent that is imported
by a house whose name is the syno-

this polish is that it is not harsh like
so many of the powders, but when it
is rubbed upon the palm Of the hand
and the nails then rubbed against the
palm, a beautiful gloss is produced
without unpleasant friction or burn
ing.

How can less than 100000 per-
sons spend half billion dollars in
Europe this year?
A. Barton Hepburn, formerly
Comptroller of the Treasury and
now President of the Chase Ma
tional Bank, asserts that at least
$400, 1000, but probably the larger
sum, is what it will cost this coun-
try for the expenses of its tourists
in 1906.
Mr.. Hepburns sources of informa-
tion include the biggest bankers,
American and foreign, in New York,
and his experience in the United
great weight among financiers. Mr..
Hepburn said:
THE extravagant expenditures of
American tourists abroad are in a
great degree responsible for the
present conditions in the money mar
ket. These expenditures now reach
the enormous sum of 100000
or $500, 100000 year. The sub
ject was discussed recently by a
number of gentlemen prominent in
financial affairs who have facilities
for gathering information on such
a subject, and the lowest estimate
by any of them was 100000, 900.
Several of them thought this esti-
mate was too low, and placed their
estimate at OO,OOO,00O a year.
Offsets the Trade Balance.
"This vast sum about offsets the
great trade balance in favor Of the
United States each year. According
to the best information obtainable
on the subject, our floating debt to
Europe at the present time is be-
tween 100000 and $500,000,-
900. This is in addition to the
great sum spent by American tour
lists.
When John Sherman was Secre-
tary of the Treasury, about a quar-
ter OF century ago, he made a care
full investigation through foreign
bankers and foreign exchange
houses as to the full amount that
was at that time expended every
year by these tourists He found
these expenditures amounted tc
500, 100000 a year.
"At that time there were few mul-
ti-millionaires in the country Now
there are many of this class who
maintain great establishments
abroad, but their disbursements dc
not by any means represent all the
American money that goes into Eu'
ropean pockets. The tourists come
from all parts of the country, and in
clude people of moderate means, as
well as those of wealth.
Our bank keeps one of its bright
est young men constantly employed
in attending to the wants of these
tourists, The expenditures are grow
ing larger every year But for then
there would be an annual monetary
balance in favor of the United States
that would in a few years pile up ar
enormous sum.
