FOR A NEW PILLOW.

A neat design for a pillow is to take
two squares Of net and THU lawn and
fasten both securely together. Outline on
the net any design wanted, using fine, cot
ton and short outline stitch, working
through the net and muslin. After the
designs are completed they should be

woman of my acquaintance a few
weeks ago. She thought she was suffering

What she said about the physician
behind his back he would not like to

her. and now she frankly admits that
all her trouble and sickness was due to

As a matter of fact women need far
more sleep than most men. The ave

five hours sleep, arise and feel per-
fectly refreshed. Did you aver meet a
woman who could do with five hours

NEWEST IDEAS
Of FASHION.

New ruche is Of stiff linen of the fines
pleating, which Is an inch wide in the bacl
and graduates TO almost nothing In front
The roll shape ruche of crepe lisse is very
dainty and looks well in every collar.
There is a new hair OF twisted
purple velvet. wired. with clusters OF black
currants over the right ear, and white
over the left. This fruit is made Of silvery
tlnsel and a few natural colored eaves are
put with il.
A plain shirtwaist can become a dressy
blouse with the addition OF a jabot which
fastens at the neck and is tucked in at the
waist line.
sashes and bretelles can be made of mar
row ribbons alternating with the SAINT
with OF insertion and edged with tiny
ruches OF lace.
Some of the newest sleeves are made
with bewitching little puf1s above the
elbows and cuffs fastening fust below.
Another cuff is of lace which reaches half
way down the forearm.
Necklaces with stones TO match the
gown are the latest craze. A slender gold
chain with pear-shaped mother-of-pearl
pendant Is very popular. and can be worn
with any costume. Amethysts and topazes
are more becoming to most women than
the more brilliant stones.
Very pretty princess lingerie dresses are
made Of French null in white, pink. light
blue and heliotrope, They are trimmed on
the skirt and waist with valenciennes lace.

GINGER NUTS.

One quart of New Orleans molasses sea-
soned with a tablespoon Of cinnamon, one
Tablespoon ginger, one teaspoon ground
cloves, the grated rind Of two oranges and
one lemon stirred well together and let
1t stand a day. Then mix with it -four
enough for a stiff batter, four teaspoons
baking powder and a large spoon Of lard.

stick.

CHECKED AND
FANCY SUITING.

Checked suiting is prettier this season
than ever before, possibly because of the
notioeabIy neat designs. In price the goods
range from twenty-five cents to s1.50, ac-
cording to the fineness of the texture.
There is a neat trimming OF Persian en-
broidery which is attractive az a decora-
tion for this material. The embroidery is
slightly scalloped on one side. heavily en-
broidered with different-eolored silk
threads. and sometimes itsehows metallic
threads. though not in the cheaper pieces.
With this embroidery and small buttons
to match. the fancy suiting make splendid
dresses for children OF grown persons,
though best suited to youths. +

A REVOLVING WARDROBE
FOR THE LITTLE FOLKS.

There is a clever little wardrobe which
is homemade. though the man of the
house was responsible for the idea and
manufacture of something decidedly handy
In which to keep the children's clothes. In
the first place the box is a large wooden
one purchased at a store. and stood or
end, with an open front finished with a
curtain. The box Is lined with pink mus
lin and covered with cream and pink Gre
tonne In he centre OF the box is a re-
volving rod, such as we see at spoke
gates. and the little garments are hung
on this by means of dress hooks which are
fastened to the rods. II a garment is In
the back of the box. m~erely-turn the wheel
and 1t Is in front. We have seen many
household eon~trivances. yet nothing any
more practical than this handy box in a
vefy tiny little house.

A HANDY CONTINUANCE.

One may have dozens Of hooks IN =
closet, vet they will not take the place Of
one long curtain rod placed well back II
the closet where skirts can be hung. The
skirt hangers with large hooks must be
used, and dozens OF skirts can be hung on
this pole n take up so little room that
1t is remarkable that the idea Is so late
in making its arrival. Then If the hooks
are placed closely together in neat rows
instead Of here, there n everywhere. The
waists scap be placed on neat little paner
hangers ana hung in orderly rows. and if
does not mean hanging several waists on
one hook TO be overtopped with a petticoat
or bolero Jacket, all to be taken down
when the lower waist is needed. If women
learned to properly place hooks in The
clothes presses and wardrohes there wonld
be less demand for more dress room.

THE NEW HOSIERY.

There is a decided change in stockings
this year in tina the plain mesh has
taken pre-eminence over the laoy open
work.
These plain stockings Of silk or thread
are Of the gauzinst and finest texture and
are more often than not quite plain. Still
there are some beautiful embroidered de-
signs, preferably in delicate flower pat
terms in contrasting color of the stocking.
Stockings should match the shoes as
far as possible, but a rather pretty fancy
is the wearing of bright lapis-lazuli blue
silk stockings with black pumps as m
accompaniment of the natural coiored
silk and linen gowss.

just Now.

At this "betwixt and between sea-
son it is mighty hard for the woman
with a limited allowance to make as
good an appearance as she would like
to.
Her summer hat has suddenly gone
to pieces, as it were, and it is too early
to think of investing in winter head
gear, for the advance styles which are
shown in the shop windows just now
are in some Instances but a poor indi-
cation of what the winter modes really
will be.
The wise woman Is looking carefully
over her last years wardrobe, picking
out all of the garments which can be
made to serve new terms Of usefulness
by a little judicious alteration. and col
leotfng odds and ends of ribbon and
velvet, to be combined with a wing
or two, to form the trimming of last
winters hat.
In this way she is able to keep her
self looking well, and at the same time
save money for the purchase of new
things a little later on. OF course,
there is not much JOY to be found
in made-over things. but by wearing
them bravely the joy of new things,
WREN they come, is doubled.

Last Years Hat.


Almost wonderful are the possibfli-
ties of last years hat! 1 think any
woman Is o poor manager If she can
not get two years of usefulness out OF
q good hat, the first year for Sunday
rneetin' best and the next year for
second best or for what a woman l
know calls hack wear. This doesn't
mean that she wears it when. she
drives in a hack, but in h early
mornings. when she makes her rounds
of the markets. etc.
Remove your winter hat FROM the
box where it has reposed all summer
and look it over with a view to pro-
longing its usefulness. Bend the brim
slightly down all the way around,
placing h part in the
front. Place a couple of wings or
plumes, If you have them. on the left
side. slanting downward, add a couple
of rosettes of silk or ribbon. which
may have bee removed from another
hal and carefully pressed, insert a new
and behol5 you nave as charm

sire. And you also have the comfort
knowing that for once you are not

FEAR SOFT COAL FAMINE
Operators to Hold Meeting to Discuss
the Situation

PITTSBURG. September 16.-ThoroughIy
alarmed over what threatens to be the
most serious coal famine In history, coal
operators of western Pennsylvania and
west Virginia. the bituminous field. have
called meeting to be held at Charleston,
w. Va. Thursday OF this week, for the
purpose of devising ways and means of in
creasing the coal output and handling 1t
after 1t has been mined. Operators from all
over the field are expected to attend the
conferences.
One of the probable results of the meet
Ing Will be a voluntary advance in the
wages of the miners, in the hope of increas-
ing the output. Operators declare that
never In history has there been such a
shortage of miners. Men who for years
have worked as miners are able to obtain
work in other lines and are deserving the
mines.
In the former years the miners COM
planned that they did not get enough work.
Now they are working every day in the
week. IL they will. and In most Instances
positively refuse to work overtime.
The conditions which confront the opera
tors are serious in the extreme Many OF
the western railroads with whom the oper-
ators have contracts have notified them
that they will have to fill their orders
cording to contract. or the contracts Will
be Cancelled. The railroads are doing
everything In their power to place cars at
the disposal OF the operators. but with the
present movement Of crops II ID almost an
to get cars.
