Has Reason to Knock

Capt. Frank Moore of the Yucatan was seen by repreaentive oe the PROS | RECTOR while the Yucatan was here. aud asked how he felt over the keel hauling from the Katalla Herald, which charged him with knocking Katalla every time he got chance. The Gap taln sald that he was knocker and d good one too, not at the town or the people in it, but at the .ighterage facil tues or whoever was responsible for them, and he would continne to knock until something was done to better conditions. On the last trip up he had o6 tons of freight for the coal and oll burg. and was obliged to wait there oi hours before he could unload. A lighter was sent out which took off l5 tons ore afternoon, and then he did not see the lighter again until 24 hours later. and as his time was up he simply went off, and took the freight along to Seattle. "rhis is only one of score of cases" said the Captain, "and have good cause to kick, and 1 will until llghterage facilities are improved.' Captain Moore said he had steamed into Katalla and after waiting around a good part of a day, off comes launch to injuire if we have anything to land. "What do they think we steam Tn there for, just to have look at their blooming town?"

Remo0ina Slams.

When a stain proves unusually oDsu-
nate and absolutely refuses to come out
by ordinary methods, wet the spot thor
oughly and then cover with dry chlOr-
ide of lime. Let II remain few mo-
ments, rubbing well with the fingers
meanwhile. and then rinse until all the
lime is out. II will generally be found
that the stain is gone also. If not, ap-
ply again. A second application will re-
move anything that is removable.
Owing TO the nature of the remedy.
however, It Is far better TO make a
second application than TO leave the
first one on until the stain is all gone
The chemical action. Of the lime re-
moves a portion OF the internal fiber
Of the material and thus eats up the
stained part. The proportion of hber
thus removed is so small as to do no
injury, but, Il left on too long. the
lime will insinuate itself, taking a
strong hold, and finally bite through the
fabric. or weaken Il so Il will soon wear
in holes Chloride of lime is the base Ot
javelle water which IS so often recon-
mended for the removal of stains but
using the powder Itself is more salts

Choosing Flowers foz M0ahdS

When choosing flowers TO send to
sick friend. remember that the two nee
essay qualifications are that they nave
only a faint odor and that thew are OF
some variety that is lasting. Some
flowers last very much longer than
others.
Carnations probably give more salts
faction than any other flower in this
respect, and the odor is very refreshing.
Roses, lilies of the valley. and viQlets
are all suitable for the sick room, but
they do not last fresh for very long.
They will keep much better, however,
II they are removed from the sick room
every night. and this should always be
done with any kind of flower. Put them
into a cool place. and cut the stems.
then fiji the vases with fresh. hot water,
into which a pinch Of salt has been
added. This Will not make the frag-
rance last, but it will freshen the flowers
and make the coIors look brighter
Always remember, when calling upon
anyone who has been ILL., or who is
still i'll. that your visit must be very
brief one. Do not talk about illness or
sorrow of any kind and do not ask the
symptoms or experience of the invalid
during his or her illness. Talk of some
thing bright cheerful, and amusing.

Erz. nIilIer's New Residence, Earned
IN Less Than One Year.

MIS- MIXERS New Residence, Earned
IN Less Than One Year.
Several years ago Mrs. Miller learned
Of mild and simple preparation that
cured herself and several friends OF fe
male weakness and piles. She was be-
sleged by so many women needing treat
ment that she decided to furnish it TO
those who might call for Il. She start
ed with only few dollars capital and
the remedy, possessing true and wonder
ful merit, producing many cures when
doctors and other remedies failed. the
demand grew so rapidly she was sew
eral times compelled TO seek larger
quarters. She now occupies one Of the
city's largest office buildings, which she
and stenographers are required to assist
In this great business.
E-i1Hon Women Use It.
More than a million women have used
Mrs MllleTS remedy, and no matter
where you live, she can refer YOU 10 Ia
dies in your own locality who can and
will tell any sufferer that this marvellous
remedy really cures women. Despite the
fact that Mrs. Miller's business is very
extensive, she is always willing to give
aid and advice 20 every suffering woman
who writes 10 her. She is q generous
good woman, and has decided to give
away 20 women who have never used
her medicine 100000 worth absolutely
FREE.
Every woman suffering with mains In
the head, back, and bowels. bearing
down feelings, nervousness. creeping
sensations up the spine. melancholy. de-
sire TO cry, hot flashes, WEAKNESS. or
piles from any cause. should sit right
down and send her name and address
TO Mrs. Cora r. Miller, Box 7641 Koko-
mo, Ind. and receive by mail Gree of
charge in plain wrapper a 5G-cent box
OF her marvellous medicine; also her
valuable book, which every woman
should have.
Remember. this offer will not last long
for thousands and thousands OF women
who are suffering viii take advantage
Of this generous means OF getting cured.
So If you are ailing, do not suffer an
other day. but send your name and ad-
dress to Mrs. Miller for the book and
medicine before the 100000 worth is ali
gone.

ReUiOat of Sealing Wan.

Owing partly to the decision of the
United States and French governments
to do away with locks 4ld keys and
use wax 20 seal mail bags, and partly
to simple fashion. sealing wax is being
manufactured in large quantities and
extensively used. At the same time a
thriving trade has arisen IN seal and
seal rings.
The latest fad in sealing wax is 10
adapt ats color TO the purpose OF the
letter. Thus. a wedding invitation must
be sealed in white. an invitation to din
ner In chocolate-though one might
suppose coffee color to be usually more
appropriate business letter in red. an
expression OF sympathy in violet and a
jealous epistle quite fttingly in yellow,
while the maid who turns down an
aspirant for her hand brushes his hopes
with a bit or sad, brown sealing wax
So, maids and matrons, il is time
again 20 buy wax candles, and 10 study

marking OUerShoeS

Rubber overshOes are all so much
alike that it is well to have some dis
tinguishing sign by which to recognize
them when left in dressing rooms, etc.
one woman accOmplishes this by sewing
a loop of black tape on the back Of her
overshoes. and this serves also to hang
them on hooks and clotheshangers. In
another family all the ''rubbers" are
painted in a broad band. each member
of the family having his or her partic
uIar color. Marking the initials inside is
all very well II you can be assured Of
their permanence. but ordinary ink Is
very soon rubbed off. Get a small
trunk stencil of the family surname,
and Il Will last much longer, and is

Tim Black Fabrics.

Black frocks are 10 be much in evil
dence this season. and a number Of
beautiful models are shown in louisine,
taffeta and chiffon cloth over black
silk. The latest models are decorated
principally with laces, usually two or
three kinds. but little good embroidery
in shllfully harmonized colors gives a
French air TO a fine black gown that IS
most desirable.
Black linens and CottOns are prettiest
in soft fabrics, and the embroidered
swisses are exquisite. one unusually effeC-
tive pattern has a black ground, striped
with closely set hairlines Of white, and
Is spriukled with tiny sprays OF lilacs.

costume, or makes up effectively with
bits Of blue satin.

ribbon velvet combined with lace and
embroidery; in fact. velvet Is TO hold its
own among the seasons trimming. de-
spite the prevalence of the lace embToid-

smartly effective that their appropriate
ness is everlasting. and many Of the
sheerest summer linens have for their
only touch Of color a handsome girdle

The Nee Skirt.

There is a rumor in the world of fash
ion that skirts are to be narrow and
skinny. The latest French skirt is cut
with a narrow front seam, and this eX
tends above the waist, where IT is
closely fitted to the figure, the side
seams being similarly shaped and fitted.
The back has plait, which also defines
the waist. The corsetlet style OF skirt
Is most becoming to tall, slim women.
AS It is cut to give an impression Of
narrowness. 1t is seldom lined, and very
little underclothing is worn.
