Postage stamps.

Do you know that postage stamps are
said to be fairly reeking with germs,
and that many serious ailments have
been caused by moistening stamps on
the tongue? I have heard on good
authority that this is true, 80 beware.
Not long ago I read of an office girl
who suffered from a bad case of blood
poisoning, caused by moistening many
envelope flaps and stamps with her
tongue.
It's just as easy to moisten the cor
ner of the envelope where the stamp is
to be placed, and no danger turks on
the clean white paper, yet few people
think of doing this.
Just stand in the postoffioe for a lit
tie while, any day in the week, and you
will notice that the great majority Of
people 'lick' the stamps before placing
them on their letters or papers.

The popularity of the lace blouse seems
10 be at its height, and never were the
styles more lovely. One especially beauti-
full model seen at Hahne e. Co.'S is built
of heavy flet net. with a tiny figure
worked out in coarse mesh. The broad
military shoulders and fronts are adorned
with of real Irish lace, which
is richness itself.
The long gloves which have held sway
for so long have given place to the two
clasp 'mannish'' one much liked by the
tailor-made girl. The short gloves will be
worn with the long-sleeyed garments all
most entirely, as it is said by many that
they are neater and more comfortable,

Quite the prettiest little Dresden china
trinket boxes are displayed at Hartdegen's.
They are beautifully mounted in French
gilt and quaint old-fashioned lowers,
which adds greatly to their p~rettiness. On

quite useful.
A pretty work basket seen at Bamber-
gers is fitted with 81 dainty little sterling
silver scissors, a silver thimble, a needle
case and a silver bodkin. The woman who
is fond of sewing and who is an adept at

whenever he went to town he could not
resist the temptation. Instead of going
to Laurel, Hastings took his gun and told
his aged mother, who lived with him, that
he was going over to see neighbor. A
few minutes later his mother heard the
report of gun, and with several hired
men rushed to the back of the barn, where
they found the lifeless body.
None of his relatives or friends can as
sign any reason fer the act other than that
Hastings was suddenly seized with a de
