Chief OF Police Scott did a great
service when he ended the chain of
robberies Friday night shooting twice
at the burglars. 1t is unfortunate
that he could not get at them right.
Had he. there would have been two
dead bodies at the morgue. He
traced them as far as he could and
did not Immediately retire as one
source states. the statement being
made maliciously for the purpose of
injury TO him. Saturday a hard
and systematic effort from early
morning and almost throughout the
day was made to run the burglars
down. This Is certainly commendable
on the part of the police and 1t is
highly unjust to even intimate that
they did not want to catch the burg
lars, There is every reason to be-
lieve that those who are SO indus
triously engaged in criticlzing the
police are the real ones who do not
want the burglars apprehended. They
profess to know who they are but
fall TO disclose their identity Thus
1t is up to them to nut up or shut up.

THE CARE OF
WICKER FURNITURE

If wicker furniture has been vanished
it will not take enamel without removing
the varnish. Pour boiling water, with a
little washing soda in it, over and through
the wicker work for at least ten minutes
let it dry. go over it with a fnnnel wet
in either turpentlne or naphtha. Leave
in the air and next day rub down with
sandpaper. Wicker, rush and bamboo
things are better dyed than painted.
Imprinted wood or raw wicker can be
dyed almost any color with good domestic
dyes, Red is particularly effective. Wet
the surface to be dyed with clear hot
water before dyeing. The wetting makes
it take color evenly. For white enamel
a clean dry surface is requisite.
The finish coat should be thicker than

Give two coats of the white varnish,
rub down with s%andpaper and finish with
oil applied with a silk swab and rubbed

Sun-faded spots in stained wood, as a
floor or window casing, can be restored
thus: Cover the spot with a folded
cloth wet in benzine or turpentine, let it
lie an hour, then rub over with alcohol
and wash with strong soda water about

A ROYAL MoToRIsT.
Princess Elizabeth of Liechtenstein an
Enthusiastic Automobi1st.

Princess Elizabeth of Liechtenstein, who
owns no fewer than thirty-one motor cars,
is certainly the most enthusiastic motorist
of all the imperial women in Europe, says
the San Francisco Argonaut. Princess
Elizabeth is the younger daughter of the
Archduchess Marie Therese and niece of
the Emperor. Her wonderful interest in
motors is the more unusual, as the Aus
trian imperial family have not greatly
taken to this new means OF locomotion.
Her husband, Prince Alois Liechtenstein,
is a man of studious habits, almost, in
fact. a bookworn. They have a country
home near notwithstanding, the old
Roman town of Alba Regia, and where the
Hungarian kings were crowned down to
the time Of Ferdinand /. The head OF the
house Of Liechtensteln rules an odd little
principality OF that name near to the from
tier of Switzerland. The territory Is some
sixty miles square, and the happy popular
ton, which numbers less than 10000, pays
no taxes and is not subject to military
duty. It forms a part Of Austria, al
though never formally incorporated into It.

NEW IDEAS IN
FANCY WORK.

A beautiful pincushion seen this
week vas made with white net, pink
pompadour ribbon and narrower rib
bon of pale green. The cushion was
about eighteen inches long, eight inches
wide and made bolster style. 1t was
a notified pink and white flower de-
sign. Over his was a finely dotted
white net and bias stripes of lace in
sertion through which narrow green
ribbon was run and finished at each
end with a fluffy rosette of ribbon.
Each side of the insertion was finished
with a wider green ribbon, possibly
half an inch wide, gathered through
the centre to make a full, double
ruffle. Two ruf1es of net were sewed
around the cushion, each border being
trimmed with the double ruffied green
ribbon.
Another cushion was made with a
poppy design. From n corner to- the
opposite one was a band embroidered
with red silk md gold tinsel. This
band was about two and a half inches
wide. Above the line were three i'm
mense poppies, the prim stems resting
on the embroidered band. The flowers
were worked with dark red and black
floss and yellow centres. A few scat
tered leaves near the band completed
the neat conventional pattern. 1t was
finished with a very heavy cord and
tassels of ruby silk.
A neat little pattern was seen an
large scrolls worked in the old-fash-
toned cat stitch with dark green silk
on pale green art cloth. One corner
was filed in with coin dots about the
size of a dime. All work was done in
different shades OF green.
A good pattern for outline work is
described like this: Suppose you take
an oval outline, divide it in half and
slip one side slightly above the other
Here you have two prirn little out
lines. From the top of the n IN the
right side make a fancy scroll, and
make a similar one on the lower point
of the left hand pattern. Outline this
odd scroll with black floss in a chain
stitch. On the right of the right scroll,
and the left of the opposite one, work
three small dots with gold. Such a
pattern scattered sover inen will make
a beautiful cover for a cushion, OF
conventional border for a scarf.

1T WAS THEIR LOSS.
Mark Twain's Illustration of the Serious
Side of a Practical Poke.

On the return trip to the United
States from London on the Minnetonka,
some one told Mark Twain, on a rough.
windy morning, that he ooked seasick.
"Im not seasick," said the humorist.
You look it, the other persisted. Then
Mark Twain laughed his short, gruff
laugh. and told a story. He began by
saying that it never paid, either in jest
or earnest, to tell people that they. did
not look well. He said: There was
a practical joker in a certain New York
office. This young man put up a prac-
teal Joke on the bookkeeper, a quiet
steady, serious chap. The joke was for
every one TO tell the bookkeeper that
he looked very, very bad, indeed. 1t
was wondered what effect this would
have.
TT was a hot August morning when
the joke began. The office boy started

Have you ever met the woman whe
does not know her own mind; who is
never able to decide any question fol
herself, from what to have for break
fast to the selection of the material OF
her new gown; who's watchword is.
Nov, what would you do if you were
me-" and who almost makes you forget
your good resolutions to be patient and
kind?
L know such a woman, and while she
has the kindest heart in the world and
is loved by many, many people, she
very often makes a nuisance of herself
by calling on her friends to decide all
the problems that come before her.
She thinks nothing of regaling all her
difficulties to other people and asking
their advice, very often ignoring it and
doing just as she pleases about the
matter after all.
It's a lovely trait to place confidence
in your friends and those about you, to
the extent of asking their advice, be-
cause it proves that you give some one
else the credit of knowing something
as well as yourself, but you need not
let your friends decide all your affairs,
or influence you as to what you should
do or how you should act.
You have a mind of your W and
you would exercise it. That's what
you have it for. You would feel sorry
for anyone who was deprived of the
use of their mind; you would think they
were woefully afflicted. But does 1t
not occur to you that he woman who
depends upon the advice of her friends
in so many things, places herself in
Just the same position. to be sym
pathized with?
Depend upon yourselves and trust to
your own judgment If you wish to re-
tain the good will of your friends.
