How to Build a Collar Box.

The fashion of wearing the turn
down embroidered linen collar has
created demand for a proper recep-
tacle for them, and this comes in the
form of book covers about Is inches
fong and six inches wide. These are
covered on the outside with cretonne
or silk and on the inside with sheet
Of perfumed cotton ever which is
white linen. Straps Of cotton are
sewed across the covers about three
inches from either end, and through
these the ends Of the collars are slip
ped. This keeps them perfectly fiat
and in a much more convenient form
than collar box. The covers fold to-
gether and tie with ribbon, giving
perfectly fat case that may be easily
packed.

MARMALADE MADE AT HOME.
Housekeeper Gets Excellent Sweet at
Small Cost.

The housekeeper who practices
economy from necessity and whose
family is fond of orange marmalade
ed the problem Of making excellent
marmalade at little less than half
the cost of the same bought ready
made. She saves the peel from the
oranges eaten by the family, In an
alright box, until she has enough
to make. when cut in very fine strips,
with all the inner pith removed with
sharp knife, a pint or little over.
The oranges are to be peeled dry, that
Is, all the peeling removed before the
inner skin Is broken, and these dry
skins will keep in cool place two
weeks without molding. When she
has enough, six large navel oranges
and three good lemons are purchased.
This fresh fruit is cut in two and
with sharp penknife the pulp of the
fruit is removed without any of the
fine inner skin which divides it into
sections. There will be some juice
left in the fruit, but this is carefully
squeezed out and added to the pulp.
From the lemon pulp every seed is
taken out and then orange and lemon
pulp is placed in deep dish and COW
cred with three pounds of graduated
sugar. The peel of the oranges and
lemons is now cut into sections, care
fully trimmed of all inner pith, and
cut in very thin slices or straws.
These are added to the pint of preyi-
ously prepared slices of orange peel,
and the whole placed in saucepan
with sufficient water to just cover
them. Then they are boiled gently
till the skins are perfectly cooked and
so tender that small straw will
pierce then easily. 1t may be neces-
to add little more water from time
to time. There should be just enough
water on the peels when they are
cooked enough to barely cover them.
To this is added the orange and lemon
pulp and sugar and the whole is boil
ed till little poured on cold plate
will set. The marmalade, must be
cooked slowly, and great care must
be taken to prevent it's setting on the
bottom of the saucepan. This quaint
ty will fill six ordinary jelly glasses
or little more, and it's cost is not
more than AZ cents, an average of
seven cents a glass. This is quite as
good as the fnarmalade bought in the
stores and very much cheaper, with
the added advantage of knowing ex
actly what is in it.

MAUDE FEALY SAW LULA.
Conductor Stopped Train But Actress
Didn't Want to Get Of.

Because the curiosity of an actress
delayed a belated Southern train,
there are some conductors south of
the Mason and Dixie line who are
watching carefully for Miss Maude
Fealy, says the Bohemian. Recently
Miss Fealy appeared in Memphis, her
birthplace, and following her engage
for Greenville, Miss. It seems that a
small town named Lulu was the home
of her father before he became post
master at Memphis, and Miss Fealy
wanted to see it. So, when the train
left Memphis, she aslel the ccaduct tor
to let her know when they rea ched the
station; then she settled down to en-
JOY the panoramic view of the Mis5is-
sippi.
Shortly before noon the train was
suddenly stopped at what looked like
very we'll conducted farm, bat what
on closer inspection became a railroad
station. Just as Miss Fealy discov-
cred the name of Lulu on the door OF
the depot, the conductors voice was
heard through four or five cars c"y-
ing out the name. Then the cry was
taken up by the brakemen until the
length and breadth of the train echoed
with the word. But no passel ger
made any attempt to leave, The con-
ductor's anger became something akin
to rage when he saw Miss Fealy calm
ly surveying the surrounding country
and her fathers former abode with
marked though calm, attention.
Lulu" cried the conductor almost
in her ear.
Lulu" shrieked the brakeman out
side her window.
Yes said Miss Fealy 81 see the
name on the station. How long do we
stop here?"
Stop" asked the conductor; 1--WE
don't stop here. This is only a flag
station. and we've stopped five min
utes already. How long do you ex-
pect us to wait for you to get off ?"
"Oh, but l don't want to get off,"
said Miss Fea.y. 81 just wanted to see
the town in which my father"
But the conductor did not wait for
the rest of the explanation. He pulled
the rope to signal the engineer, and
added another burning chapter to the
report OF belated conductors.

Bad Leaders.

Cutting loose from a safe anchorage
with minds distorted by a monstrous
ambition, discarding and repudiating
the declarations Of their party and
forgetting its wonderful achievements
under this wise national policy, there
are to-day Republican leaders who
would destroy the great work of Nc
kiniey and Dingley, and listening to
the clamor of the men who plunged
and depression in 1898, would undo
the work of Republican statesmen and
try again policy Of free trade, which
has at every trial hitherto driven
prosperity from the United States.
We care not who these men may be
done, whether the Republican party
follows their advice and elects them to
power on such platform, 1t writes
its own epitaph; repudiates it's great
est living principles; destroys the
foundation upon which it has built
the grandest political organization the
world has ever known; undoes the
work of half a century of efficient
political labor and starts the nation
down the declivity of depression,
stagnation and disaster, to plunge
into the mire of free trade and Dem.
ocracy, which will speedily obliterate
every vestige of the prosperity we
now enjoy, bringing the country back
again to the dark days, similar to
those through which it passed at the
close of the Buchanan and Cleveland

Tariff Revision by Treaty.

German exporters under this new
arrangement are permitted to fix their
own values upon goods shipped to the
United States. The goods will be ap-
praised at such figures as the Ger
mans may name and American con-
suls are expected to accept German
appraisals. The Germans can well af.
ford to pay the duty when they are
permitted to fix their own value on
the goods. BY we'll known tricks of
differentiation they will be able to
get their goods into this country on a
lesser ad valorem duty and will thus
save many millions every year. II
France, England and other countries
exporting to the United States shall
be able to make similar arrange
ment the tariff. question will lose

AT A BRIDAL LUNCHEON.
Some Novel Ideas Added Zest to En-.
tertainment.

At a luncheon given in honor of a
bride-to-be the charming idea for the
dessert course was pink ices in heart
shaped form, surmounted by a little
white satin slipper in which were a
few grains of rice covered with crys-
tallized rose petals.
A silver piece in one of the slip
pers designated the next bride
Heart-shaped pink cakes were
served with the cream At the con-
clusion of the luncheon the bride-to-
be was showered with the rice in the
slippers.
A novel and pretty rosebowl seen
there was made from cabbage.
The clever hostess said that she ar
ranged 1t in this manner:
With a sharp knife she cut out the
entire center, making a bowl cavity,
holes were punctured in the bottom.
then it was set in shallow glass dish
filled with water.
1t was filled with pink roses; at its
base feathery asparagus was ar
ranged, completely hiding the dish.
The lovely delicate green tints in the
cabbage made charming contrast te
the pink OF the roses.

FEUDS OF ACTORS.
Some Instances Of Dsagreements
Among Thespians.

During a recent performance of
"The Partisan Model" Anna Held the
star, and Charles Bigelow, the leading
comedian, quarreled after the second
act The result of the disagreement
was that Bigelow did not appear in the
third act. The Shuberts had engaged
him, and Miss Held was put out be-
cause he had decided to leave her
compshy.
During the last performances that
George NJ. Cohan and Ethel Levey,
his wife, gave before she divorced him.
each of them was especially careful to
preserve an appearance of complete
cordially. Many of their friends
knew that crisis in the form of di-
vorce proceedings was coming, but
as they played lovers on the stage,
they gave better performances in
those roles rather than take chances
of running the performance by letting
the audiences see how they really
stood toward each other
The Astor place riots, some of the
bloodiest that ever stained the streets
of New York, grew directly out of the
troubles which Forrest, the American
tragedian, had with Macready, the
English actor. Forrest also had
trouble with Charles Kean, another
English actor, who was contemporary
with him. Macready claimed that For
rest had Kissed him from a box, and
Forrest in turn charged that Macready
had Kissed him.
Some of these actor feuds have had
serious endings. William Terriss, for
instance, that fine actor who gave
Henry Irving such fine support, was
murdered at the stage door of Lon
don theater by a crazed actor who had
brooded so long upon what he con-
ceived to have been unjust treatment
received from Terriss that at length
his mind gave way and he slew the
other player
Bigelow, who has just figured in the
incident with Anna Held, figured also
in some incidents at the old Weber
& Fields Music Hall. When Miss Held
went to Weber & Fields 1t was stipu-
lated in her contract that Bigelow
should accompany her She felt that
she could play her scenes better if she
played them with a comedian who
was accustomed to her method Peter
Daley and the other nimble-witted
members of the Weberfieldian aggre-
cation had no disposition to let Bige-
low in easily. On his first appearance
thew met him within storm of i'm
promptu side play that threw him off
his balance.
Richard Mansfield, who makes con-
vincing love on the stage, and who,
upon occasion, at suppers after the
theater has entertained whole COM
panies for a quarter of an hour mere
TX by repeating the words Il love you"
II Indifferent languages and with vary
~ expression, has had many severe
quarrels with those actresses with
whom he has played love scenes.

Secretary corteIyou Apparently Aims
to Accomplish the impossible.

Fortunately Secretary Cortelyou
has proved in three government de-
partments that he has the habit of ac-
complishing what his predecessors
pronounced impossible IN. Y. Mail.
His immediate predecessor at the
head of the treasury department sup
plies an illustration. Secretary Shaw
pronounced 1t impossible to collect
the revenues to which the government
Is entitled, to provide the protection
to which domestic labor and capital
are entitled and to maintain the hon.
esty and efficiency In the customs
service to which the people as a
whole are entitled. and at the same
time open wide the door to frauds on
the revenue. to facilitate the undersell-
ing of American producers by foreign
exporters under the consignment sys-
tenn, and to the encouragement of
wholesale graft and rascality among
customs officers. Accordingly, Mr..
Shaw refused to sanction the Ger
man agreement and resigned from the
cabinet. Now, as it appears, Secre-
tary Cortelyou is about to accomplish
the impossible. He is going to give
away and keep the same market; he
is going to smash protection and
maintain protection; he is going to
promote dishonesty and insure recti.
tude. He will turn out to be indeed
great man II he shall succeed in
these indeavors.
