Making Old Clothes New.

In many cases light summer dresses
which have not been much worn, may
be turned to advantage for winter
evenings. A delicate organdy may be
cut low with a decolletage of appli-
lued lace-a bit of duchesse or point
that has been tucked away in the
piece box. The skirt may be length
ened to round-train length (if the
goods can. be matched. or there was
some left by two or three rows of
small fluffy rufiies.
A most valuable suggestion for
covering a multitude of sins is lace
coat, made preferably with a long
tail. Some of the wide laces are
quite inexpensive, and when the edges
Of the jacket are caught down close
apon the dress and the waist is snug
ly fitted and held firmly in place by
four or five inches of velvet ribbon
facing, a practically new dress Is the
result, at comparatively little cost.
The lace coat. if the material is care
fully selected and well fitted, makes
very handsome evening dress. eth

over this is the little tucked Eton, so
that protection against Jack Frost Is
amply provided. The sleeves are in
full length, but finished in quite novel
fashion at the wrists, where they are
tucked and trimmed with buttons. The
material from which the model was
made is chiffon velvet with trimming
of handsome Oriental applique and
carved gold buttons, but all suiting ma
terials are appropriate. Again, If liked,
the blouse can be silk faced with ma
terial TO match the Eton from the
front and lower edges, so making Il
wrap Of lighter weight that becomes
available for the heavier materials.
The blouse consists of the fronts and
the back and is arranged over the
waist, while the sleeves are full shirrcd
at their upper edges and scanned to
the two together, so making one gar
ment of the whole.
The quantity Of material required for
the medium size is five and three
fourth yards twenty-Onc, four and one
fourth yards twenty-seyen or two and
three-fourth yards forty-four inches
wide, with four and three-fourth yards
of applique to trim as illustrated.

Importance of Kitchen.

The Importance of the kitchen In
the house plan is being more, and
more recognized every day. Two
widely different causes have brought
this about. A more intelligent appre-
citation of the house plan, keener
realization of the necessity of having
only good rooms, no matter what their
uses might be; a knowledge that
any badly lit, badly placed, badly
ventilated room means q bad spot In
the house, has helped nightly in the
advancement of the kitchen. And
the cook herself has been an enorm.
GUS agent for reform. Her Importance
far transcends that of any mere room.
AS her personal estimation of her val
lie has grown, her demands for ac-
commodations have increased in pro.
portion. The good cook now fatty
declines to work in any but a good
kitchen, and the helpless housekeeper
often knows that cooks of a very in
ferior quality will take the same high
minded position. So the kitchen has
been improved in many ways to meet
these modern conditions, neither of
which are concerned with the pos
sibility of doing good work in a good
room, but both of which unquestion-
ably lead TO that result.-American
Homes and Gardens.

Creeks Medicine Man,

The medicine man of the Creeks
will not eat anything scorched in
cooking; in treating gun or arrow
shot wound he as well as the patient
will fast four days, only drinking a
little gruel
He will not allow a woman to look
at is patient until he is well or dead
If his patient dies, the medicine man
takes lot Of medicine himself in
order to cleanse himself of the fumes
or odor Of the dead. The pall-bear-
ers, as we might call those assisting
in the burial, also take the same
cleansing process.
And again, when an Indian COM
mitted murder, even in self-defense,
he went to the medicine man and
took the cleansing remedy, claiming
the remedy appeased the crime and
the trouble to his mind. The medi-
cine man has horror of women,
keeping out Of their company as much
as possible. At the full of each
moon 1t was the sustom of the bucks
to drink medicine made by the medi-
cine man to cleanse their system. In
camp the Indian killed nothing which
was not eatable.--Indian Journal.

Fault-Findinq.

Fault-fnding is one of the common
est vices even Of the virtuous. We
are all infested more or less with it,
and the great charm of it is that it
has a curious way of raising us in our
own good opinions, and making us
feel superior to the rest of the world,
says McCall's Magazine. We cannot
lament (the virtuous fault-finder al
ways laments-never eXults) over
lhe shortcomings or vices of our
aeighbors, without being conscious of
a little glow of satisfaction over our
own immaculate reputation, and our
known virtues. we despise the gos-
sip and the busybody from the bot
tom of our hearts, but this does not
prevent our telling our friend Mrs.
Brown, what horrible man that vul-
gar Mr.. Jones is" and that "it is a
well known thing that he spends all
his time and energy in betting and
gambling" Then comes little qualm
Of conscience, for we know we have
been guilty Of evil speaking, so we
add hastily: "Of course, it does not
matter to us. 1t is not our affair, but
We do feel so for his poor wife!" And
so we find fault without the last good
purpose, and on some pretext or 9th
er we make excuse for our hateful
pleasure, and continue as self-satis-
fied as ever.
It would be well for fault-fnders to
remember that 4 their conversation
may be amusing to certain class of
people. but that. they are perfectly
sure to win for themselves dislike and
contempt A love of fault-finding is a
repulsive characteristic to a right
minded person, and it has most de-
teriorating effect on the character Of
those who indulge it. A person who
ls always on the qui vive to detect
what is bad or unloyely in. people and
things around her must become like
that which she is always contempla-
ting. A morbid taste for the ugly side
Of life destroys our powers of appre-
citation of that which is good and
beautiful, and makes us like unto hui
man birds Of prey, who have cult
vated in themselves love of carrion
till they no longer posses appetites
for that which is good and whole
some.

Folly of the Consumntiue

Twenty thousand new cases of con-
sumption come to the great south
west every year. From all parts of
the north, the east and the middle
west they begin, as soon as the mild
days of autumn give place to frost
and snow. to flock hitherward in the
belief that the disease from which
they suffer will yield, speedily or
slowly, but surely, to the milder CHI
mate which they know awaits them
here I asked thoughtful,
conscientious man whether any Of
these consumptives died. die! did
you say? They used to get well when
they came in time, but now over 60
percent of them die sooner or later
They don't take care of themselves;
they won't let us take care of them
very long, and they are burden to
us, harm to the community and Of
ten a discredit to the doctors who
sent them here and who should have
known better"
"They are fools, FOOLS" said anoth-
er doctor of high standing and large
experience. Fools and crazy" he
added. Then he walked the floor in
his anger at the folly and ignorance
of many of those who come, as we'll
as of those who sent them. "Why do
they leave home? Don't they know
any better? Do they think that eli
mate will cure everything, or that
we have nothing to do but to look
after them. give them advice which
they will not follow, pay their bills
when they have no money and bury
them when they are dead? Yet they
still come, and we can do nothing for
most of them except to help them
die."-The Reader.

DOGLESS SLEDS.
An Ice Automobile for Travel in Win,
ter over Land and Sea.

A combination of the bicycle and
sled has been proposed. The vehicle
would go on runners, and progress
would be affected by having also a
spiked wheel that would take hold OF
the ice. The wheel would be driven,
of course, by pedals. A modification
of the idea is described in the Techni.
cal Magazine. A light automobile
might be equipped with adjustable
runners, one under each wheel, and
also with sail. When no wind was
available for navigation, movement
would be secured by device called
an aeropinion, which looks like an
auerg, comes down on the ice and is
rotated by a gasoline engine. Aero.
car, pneumosllte and ice automobile
are some of the names applied to the
vehicle itself.
According to the periodical just re.
ferred to, the hope is entertained that
this sled could be used for travel in
the frozen parts of the world. It may
mean the discarding of the sled pulling
dog and the reindeer as beasts of bur-
den, and may make traffic in the far
north much more speedy and secure
than ever before.
Traffic on the ice was the primary
object for which the aeropinion and
pneumoslite were designed; but the
strange power the device has display.
ed has led its inventor to anticipate
wider field for it, including traffic
on land and water and even the navi.
CATION of the air.
In fact, If the enthusiastic inventors
claims are borne out, this wonderful
device may soon become a combina-
tion automobile, ice sled, motor boat
and airship. all in one. From his
statements it might be inferred that
the aeropinion is an appliance design
ed to make traffic possible without
the interruption by ordinary obstacles,
such as earth, air and water afford.
For instance, such a machine as an
automobile, equipped with an aero
pinion, might start out for cross
country trip in the Middle West. If
the chauffeur, in the course of his
journey. should encounter Lake Michi-
gan and find it to be partially covered
with ice, he would merely have to at
tach big ice skates to the tires, and
his machine-now transformed into a
pneumoslit-would go on faster than
ever.

Americas Women's JeweIry.

American women as rule wear
very little jewelry. and it is rather the
fad Of women with beautiful figures,
hands and feet not to wear any orna-
ment at all-not even the smallest
brooch, or single ring, or the small
est bangle. One evening the Sherry S
looked around and saw quite a
dozen women beautifully and most eX-
Densively gowned, with not a single
jewel. One woman wore pale gray
crepe de chine trimmed in rare old
italian fifteenth century lace, with
elbow sleeves and graceful skirt. 1t
moulded her figure like corset. Her
fair hair was crowned by black pic
ture hat of good definite lines, and
she wore no ornaments or jewels OF
any kind. either on arms or hands or
aeek. and she looked most beautiful
and distinguished-M A. p.

Blouse Waist with Cheinisette.

The waist made with simple chemi-
sette is well deserved favorite of he
present and promises to extend its
vogue indefinitely. This one is cut on
most becoming and satisfactory lines,
and will be found equally well adapted
to the gown and to the separate waist.
In the illustration it is made of taffota
and lace. with trimming of narrow
silk braid but all seasonable materials
are equally correct. The combination
of box pleats with tucks is novel
and attractive one, and renders the
model well adapted to all the soft ma
terials that are in vogue. The box
pleats at the back give the taperng
effect TO the figure that always is be-
coming, while the tucks at the front
provide graceful and attractive 'ul-
ness. Also the waist has the advan-
tage of closing ut the left of the front
The waist is made with the fitted
lining, which is closed at the centre,
and consists of the fronts, centre front,
chemlsette and back. The chemisette
and centre front are Joined one to the
other, and are stitched TO the right
