How to Keep Feathers Fluffy.

The expense of keeping either an
ostrich feather boa or an ostrich feath-
err laden hat looking like new reduces
itself 10 nothing at all and very little
trouble when one knows the way. The
straightest feathers may be curled
"without ripping" as the old ads used
to say, and boas require only little
shaking. Boiling water and dry heat
are the two essentials, and the method
OF treating either hat or boa Is the
same. An old fashioned teakettie
with long spout is best for the boiling
water. Either a radiator or the top
OF stove Is usually best for the dry
heat. A register seldom sends out sur
ficient volume. In any event, both
kinds Of heat must be ready at the
same time When the kettle boils the
feathers should be waved to and fro In
its steam until they have gathered a
little moisture, not so much, however,
as to be wet. AT the time when the
last lingering remnant Of curl dlsap-
pears they are usually ready for the
dry heat. 1t is this which curls the
feathers, and hat or boa should be held
as close to 1t as can be without burn
ing, and either should be shaken gent
ly every moment.

LICENSE COMMISSIONER FINED.
Sheldon H. lockwood Of Bennington
Pays S37. 80 for Catching Short
Trout,

Bennington, May %. Harry Chase
had it forced upon him today that the
LOT Of a county fish and game warden
is not always happy one. Yesterday
while patrolllng the streams in this
vicinity he made two arrests for catch
ing short length trout. The first victim
was Sheldon II. Lockwood, chairman
OF the board of license commissioners.
The warden found him on the Blck-
ford hollow stream with basket OF
trout and among the fish were six that
could not possibly be stretched so as to
measure six inches, although the license
commissioner nearly pulled the little
fish apart in bis efforts TO keep out of
the clutches of the law.
Chase and lockwood are old fishing
aud hunting companions and during
the last deer season occupied a tent
together on Harmon mountain. The
warden could do nothing but arrest
lockwood who was this morning CON
yicted and fiuod including costs $50 90
by Municipal Judge Bates.
The warden also found Harry Snow
on the Glastonbury stream with five
short trout for which he was fined So
each aud costs Of 81. During the day
the warden inspected the baskets Of IL
fishermen, but all passed muster with
the exception Of lockwood and Snow.
The warm weather OF the past few days
has improved the fly fishing and good
catches are being reported every day.

How 70 Make RUGS.

To make durable rugs out OF old
clothes, rip the garments apart, tear
in narrow strips one-third OF an inch
wide; bend stiff wire SO that 1t VIII
form two prongs an inch apart, the
length of the width Of the rug you
want to make. Then take the strips,
pin the ends together, mixing bright
and dark colors for centers or border,
as one wants. Now wrap them around
the prongs carefully until they are
filed, then place the prongs across the
foundation OF muslin the size OF the
rug and pin them firm. Now sew In
the middle Of prongs with the machine
or by hand, remove the prongs and
cut the loops. Repeat until length Is
