A Remittance.

Use suit in the court presided over
by the judge in question.
After each exchange of repartee be.
tween his Honor and the imprudent
counsel, the Judge would say:
CLERK, just enter another fine OF
$40 against Mr.. Mitchell for contempt
of court"
When this sort of thing had pro
ceeded further than counsel wished,
he addressed his Honor in this wise:

the orders Of the honorable Court in
this, as in all other instances. Now,

Unnecessary SUFFERING.

An actor without funds managed in

three days, and in view Of the fact
that his finances were at low ebb he
solved the question in this way: The

from eating and remained up all nigks
to keep from sleeping. The second day
he took physical culture exercises.

FASHION NOTES.

Silk muslin, plain black muslin and
mourning gowns
The sudden rising Of the fichu to
popular favor is one of the innova-
tions.
Cutaway coats always bring in cut
away effects for loose shoulder ar
rangements.
Glove lengths have now arrived at
such a pass that many of the gloves
are longer than the wearer's arm.
Many hats are made of transparent
colored straw, unlined, and trimmed
with black ribbons.
In Paris they are bringing out the
most stunning fichus in colored silks
to brighten up black and dun colored
costumes.
Everything that the needle can dec
crate is embellished and too lavishly
for artistry if the mandate of fashion
is followed.
Black lingerie petticoats are a new
ness. They are of fine black lawn
and lace, and are for wear under
black voile frocks.
Old-fashioned stockings Of white
lisle thread, such as were worn in
our ,grandmother's day. are to have
vogue this season, and are prominent
ly displayed in the stores.
Old-time bodice drapery is used
with the waistcoat or with the high
girdle. in either case being tucked
into the top Of the accessory garment.
Swastika stocks shown at the smart
shops are of linen, with the Indian
good-luck symbol or swastika embroid-
cred by hand on the front tabs.
The scarf-trimmed panama is in
most Of its forms rather youthful
type Of headgear, but when cleverly
bent and trimmed it is a peculiarly
piquant and pretty hat for summer
morning wear. Long chiffon scarfs
knotted behind and falling low ON the
shoulders are very often substituted
for the scarfs of silk and form a be-
coming background for a pretty face

Mexico's penal code is patterned af-
ter that the French Incommuni-
cado, often mentioned in criminal
cases, means solitary confinement,
without power to communicate with
any one. When man is arrested on
a serious charge he is put in cell
for three days incomunicado. At the
end Of that time he is given judicial
examination. 1t is quite different from
the American procedure, but 1t must
be said that after man has been
in solitary confinement for three days
and is interviewed by the judge in
the first instance he often comes
nearer telling the truth and the whole
story than II he has been in commune
cation with lawyers and outside par.
ties all the time.-Modern Mexico.

CARE or TABLECLOTHs.

When not in use, tablecloth should
be kept in folded creases, and when
brought out to be spread should be
laid on the table and unfolded its en-
tire length, the width being doubled,
with the centre crease along the cen
ire of the table. Then the half breadth
that is folded should be turned back
and the cloth will hang even Care
less servants often gather up a cloth
anyhow" without taking the trouble
to fold it up again in its own creases,
and thus fresh ones are made. A
tablecloth will keep fresh looking as
long again if it is always folded up
in its own folds and put away until
the next meal, says Woman's Life.
The French have way of making
even an inferior quality of table linen
look well without the aid Of starch
When the napkins are washed and
ready to be ironed, they are dipped
into boiling water and partially wrung
out between cloths. They are then
rapidly ironed with as hot fiatiron as
possible without burning them.

nAIRY BARNS.

AS 1t is impossible to secure pure
milk in dirty dark barn reeking with
odors of manure, it's construction must
be taken into account Plenty of air
space mast be provided in order to
insure pure air, from 900 to 1000 cubic
feet being needed for each animal
An abundance of window space must
be provided. Enough light should
enter to enable one to read a news
paper in the darkest places. The
ventilation should be such that the
air is changed every few minutes. Any
one contemplating new barn or
reconstruction of an old barn to con-
form with the ideas here mentioned
should secure some good treatise on
barn construction and ventilation. 1t
is evident to any observer that one OF
the difficulties in securing good milk
is the dark, poorly ventilated and
constructed barns, containing rotten
wooden floors that can not be cleaned.
Concrete is the best material for
floors. It is economical and can be
easily kept clean. If wood is used
in floor construction, it should be
closely laid in pitch and kept in per-
feet repair. The interior of the barn
should be kept covered with white
wash, which acts as purlfler and
makes the rooms much lighter. Stalls
and feed boxes should be simple IN
construction and easily cleaned.
AS a usual thing bank barns are
not good dairy barns unless the stalls
are placed on the floor entirely above
ground and the basement is used for
storage of implements of purposes OF
similar nature. A basement as ordl-
narily constructed is dark and damp
and has low ceilings. 1t is difficult
to ventilate and is entirely unfit for
housing animals. The drainage OF
the yards around the barn is very I'M
portant. Yards must be dry and firm.
An accumulation of manure in the
yards is very Objectionable. The
dairyman who compels his cows TO
wade deep in manure before they get
into the barn can never expect 10
secure good milk. If all dairy barns
were so built as to be light and airy,
admitting lots of sunshine when need
ed, and were kept in good sanitary
condition, there would be less tuber-
culosis and other diseases among the
dairy stock.-Bulletin Department OF
Agriculture.

SENDING LINEN TO LAUNDRY

Here are few good rules for send
ing linen to the laundry. All articles
should be legibly marked with full
name in either cotton or ink. Mark
plainly where the letters will show
when the piece is folded, or freshly
ironed clothes will be tumbled in the
search for the distinguishing sign.
Look in pockets carefully before send
ing clothes off Turn socks and stock
ings inside out For the sake of COM
mon humanity, be sure that no pins
remain anywhere. Use rust proof
hooks and eyes. Mend clothes before
sending, or they will come back in
much worse condition. Tie handker-
chiefs in bundle by themselves. Take
off all buckles and detachable but
tons, and even any very valuable but
tons already sewed cn.-Boston Post.
