Dinner Suggestions.

For little home dinners the small red cab
bages that come from Germany are ex-
tremely attractive when used for both dish
and salad. For large dinner party, how
ever, they are much too small.
Cheese usually is passed after this salad,
and the favorite sort at present seems to
be cream cheese much softened and with
chopped cucumber mixed through it. The
taste given by the cucumber is delicate and
unusual.
The custom also prevails at every fash
ionable dinner of passing one perfectly SIM
pie old English cheese, the omission of
which to many diners out is the one thing
objectionable.

feet with the sheerest Of black net en-
broideries is most brilliant, while any pos
sible garishness seems to be done away
with by the trimmings of black satin or vel

ing are also brought out in this style Of
gown and a CLINT of light blue most clev-

This is the time of year when the practical
shopper goes out bargain hunting. Among
the stock of model gowns now offered for
half of the original price she searches until
she finds what is not too shopworn to be
renovated and secures smart and attra ctive
models that are sometimes even ahead of
the fashion of the moment, but she does
not confine her energies her talents to
buying made-up gowns, for she knows this
is the season of year to discover rare treas

lousy small cost. Embroidered laces, fancy

way in which the effect of exquisite sim

The ingenuity of the modiste is perhaps

TO MEET IN CEDAR RAPIDS.

Hardware Association to Hold Mid
Winter Meeting in Parlor City.
Special 10 Times
Cedar Rapids, Aug. 24.-At meeting
of the directors of the Iowa Retail
Hardware association at Mason City
yesterday it was decided to hold the
annual convention in Cedar Rapids
February 17-24. The meeting was Sc
cured for this city by the Commercial
club and Mr.. George T. Gadd. Since
the last session in Des Moines they
have been hard at work to secure the
convention. The 1907 meeting in Des
Moines was a frost according to many
who attended. The visitors were
charged exhorbitant hotel rates and
provided with poor places for showing
the exhibits and holding the meetings
Des Moines put forth its best efforts
to get the 1908 meeting and q special
committee was named to endeavor to
secure it.
One OF the objects in holding the
meeting in Cedar Rapids is to get In
closer touch with the dealers in the
southeastern part of the state Here
tofore the. meetings have always been
held in Des Moines. but it is thought
that hereafter they will be equally di-
vided between the two cities. with the
chances of holding most of them in

ance association will also meet here in
connection with the dealers. This as

workers at Buxton, the property OF
the Consolidation Coal Company, quit
work yesterday and the mines have
been idle during the day. About l,50O
miners were affected by the strike.

lieved that the men and the manage
ment will get together this afternoon

troversy

claimed that work has at times been
impossible on account Of imperfect
ventilation Complaint has been laid
before the management, but no steps
have been taken to remedy the trou-
BILE, SO the mine workers claim.
The trouble eliminated Thursday
evening in proposition to strike In
order to have the matter brought to
some sort OF settlement. A mass
meeting of the miners was held and
1t was the sentiment of the meeting
that work be suspended until the
trouble had been adjusted.

Secretary Edwin Perry of the United
Mine Workers of Oskaloosa, came
to Buxton to confer with the miners
and the management of the mine con-
corning the trouble. 1t is thought that
the company and the men will get to-
gether during the day and that work
will be resumed today. !.
The matter In controversy, it is
said. has been The subject Of frequent
conferences between the local officers
and the mine management. 1t is said
that the company has denied that
there was any real trouble. They
have been willing to make right any
thing that WIS not in accordance
with agreements The matter has
rested there until the decision of the
men to go out until the grievance was
adjusted in some manner.

Des Moines Aug. 24.-It is more than
likely that Major S. H. NJ Byers of

a. painting worth at least $4,000.
This statement is made by Mrs.

Mrs. McNulty has, of course, In

visited ST. Helens, the home of Major
Byers, and became greatly interested
in painting Of the Madonna, which
is in his possession. Mrs McNulty
was seen last evening and it was then
that she made the startling revelation
which may mean fortune to Major
Byers.

Gus that the National Art Society may
have the honor of proving whose work
it really is. She has communicated
her discovery to the heads of the So
