AUTOMOBILE VEIL.

Immediately copied by the Girl Who
Could Do Things.
Two long wells, one a vivid emer-
aid green, the other a bright navy
blue, were joined together by the
hem, which was hemstitched to the
upper part.
The green chiffon was underneath
and the blue on top, giving a charm
ing shimmery blue green tone that
was enhanced by the upper part, be-
ing two separate wells that could be
quite pulled apart. The hem had the
green folded on the inside of the
blue. The ends were finished in mar
row, separate hens. - New York

THE JIG-SAW PUZZLE.

A girl who doesn't spend half her
playtime in matching jig-saw puzzles
is certainly out of touch with the
times. There are few fashions in
games which have taken such grip
upon the public.
You all know about it, of course?
1t is an elaboration of the old-fash-
toned puzzle blocks of childhood
days. The matching of them is as
hard to the grown-up girl as the sim
pie little blocks were to her baby in
tellect.
Instead of being cut in squares and
easy angles they are cut out by a Jig
saw into tiny pieces that take on
every curve known to geometry.
Everywhere you go, to a dinner,
for an afternoon in the country, to a
hotel, on a steamer, it matters not
where, if you don't play puzzles you
are behind the times and you are
quickly counted out.
1t makes little difference how well
you may talk or sing, play the piano
or dance You are not wanted for
those amusements. The rest of the
world is matching blocks, and you
must either do it or sit alone.
How any one can help doing it is a
question. 1t IS the most fascinating,
irritating, time-compelling pastine of
the day. At summer hotels you could
see little tables all around the Sc
Guided corners over which were bent
the heads of five or six people, or the
tables, when deserted, bore the pla-
card in capital letters, UNDERSIGNED:
please dCn't touch
None there were so unkind or SO
curious who would blow a breath on
these little blocks Of wood or jar the
table by as much as finger touch.
They knew the secret. That puzzle
was not finished.
On the steamers coming homo from
Europe the passengers were at the
work most of the time. All the ia
bles available were used for puzzles,
and the most careless steward learned
not to dust tables on which lay unfin-
ished puzzles.
These jig-sawed puzzles were in
vented by New England girl some
time before Christmas. She cut out
the tiny blocks with jig saw. and
that save the name to the original
puzzles. First the block of wood
was painted exactly after famous
picture, but to make the game more
difficult no copy of the picture IS sold
with the puzzle.
At once Boston took up the pas
time and MADE it the fashionable in
door sport OF New England. AS soon
as summer began the resorts from
Bar Harbor to Atlantic Beach caught
the enthusiasm By this time four
firms were making this girls jig-saw
puzzles in an eighth of the time and

Dcuth At Which Miners Can Work

Below SO feet the temperature
rises in the proportion Of one degree
fer every 65 feet Of depth except
where currents of water carry the
heat away. The result is that at a
depth of about 1000 feet we reach
a temperature of SO degrees, or blood
heat. This renders it exceedingly
difficult to work coal pits below that
depth. This is the reason that Great
Britain's coal commission has decid-
ed that mines are not workable be-
low 1000 feet.
The thickness of the solid rocks
building up the crust Of the earth is
at least SO to 40 miles. At that
depth the heat is such as would re.
duce everything on the surface of the
earth to liquid. But the pressure of
the everything rocks is so great that
until the relation of the heat to the
pressure is known 1t cannot be said
whether the earth at that depth IS
fluid or solid.-Chicago Tribune.

A Government Lottery,

Why does the United States Gov
eminent, which enforces with great
rigidity the laws against lotteries,
even to excluding foreign newspapers
which contain advertisements OF
them, conduct lotteries itself in the
disposal of public lands, as witness
the recent distribution of the Rose
bud farms? It would be easy to de-
wise different and indeed a more
equitable system of allotment. Per
haps some form of auction would be
fairest and best of all. Anyway, is
the appeal to chance in any respect
more moral when administered by
the United States than when propos-
ed by the Spanish monarchy or the
municipality of Paris?-New York

LOCAL PAPERS STRENGTH.
A Good One Need Have No Fear of
Outside Connection.

The local newspaper, If properly
conducted, can always dominate the
local field. no matter how strong the
competition of outside newspapers
may be.
The local newspaper that amounts
to anything expends the most of Its
energy in gathering and printing
home news, but its managers know
that while home news is of the great
est Importance something else is re-
quired. The people want to be kept
informed in regard to what is going
on throughout the State and the
country. They may not care for
lengthy reports of distant events, but
they do want the important facts.
Give them this news in condensed
form and they are content.
The big city dailies cannot compete
with the local paper in its own field.
They are not in touch with the life
Of the town. They cannot give the
proper perspective to the news. They
90 not represent the place itself IN
any way. They are outsiders whose
interests are conferred elsewhere.
The local newspaper is a home in
stitution and its people take pride in
its career. 1t keeps them in touch
with the happenings of home folks
folks they know and see daily. Its
advertising columns are filled with
the announcements of the merchants
with whom they Go business. There
fore, they want and need it above all
other publications.
If the manager Of the local news
paper knows his business and gives
his readers the kind of news they re-
quire, he need have no fear Of COM
petition from outside newspapers, no
matter how large and strong they
may be. 1t is only when he goes to
sleep on the job that danger threat

How To Kill Surplus Cats.

How to destroy surplus kittens or

Take a dish cover, place it where
it can be pressed into the mold OF
the garden, or in default of this, on
an old cushion, 50 that the latter
bulges out all around and makes the
cover alright Place the animals
beneath and pour four ounces Of
pure chloroform on wadding. Push

Why?
WHY!
Is there not something minutelY

Is there not something infinitely
pathetic in the continual going back
of one generation after another to the
old, sad mystery Of pain? There is,
1 suppose, says the Rev. George Jack
son, nothing new to be said about
it; there is no fresh light to be cast
upon it; yet still men wait and watch
with hope, still the poor brain busies
itself and the torn heart cries aloud,
my God, my God, why" Other
questions we answer, or they answer
themselves, or we are content that
they should remain unanswered; but
this question is always with us. And,
indeed, how should 1t be otherwise,
since on every man, soon or late, the
dark mystery thrusts itself? Man
that is born of woman is of few days
and full of trouble" The words are
very old, they are never obsolete. The
generations come and go, but sorrow
and pain and death abide.
