Cracks in the Floors.

There are three methods of filling cracks in floors. First, dissolve one pound of glue in two gallons of water. Stir into this enough fine sawdust to make a thick paste and fill the cracks with It. The paste may be colored to match the wood.
 Second, fill the cracks with putty. One can make the putty by mixing whiting and linseed oil together and kneading 1t until the paste Is smooth. The putty may also be colored to match the wood.
 Third, soak finely shredded paper In water and boil 1t until 1t Is soft pulp,

elbow length. Thus the plain look of the kimono sleeve is modified to q great extent and the fullness at the shoulder is so becoming to many wom- en that they have found the last year of Japanese fashions very trying.
 A pretty blouse, easily made at home, might be copied after one seen on a shopping tour. It was simply bands of cheap cluny insertion, the kind for merly used on curtains, sewed togeth- CT the length of the blouse and made perfectly plain. The small puff sleeves were made in the same way, and the collar was a band of the same. This could be varied by inserting a collar and square neckpiece of tucked net, edged with valenciennes, and making cuffs to match, while velvet or ribbon of the color of the suit with which 1t Is worn could be introduced with good effect

account of i'll health. While he was ill he did various things to while away the time. One day he started to build toy cathedral patterned after a pie ture he saw in q magazine. His build ing materials were matches and glue, his tools a pocket knife and a glue brush. The plan was laid out for a building 14 feet high, l4 feet long and [ feet wide. He worked with remark. able patience, oftentimes putting in all his waking hours at his task. After two years of almost continuous appli cation the job was finished.
 The walls of the cathedral, the tow CTS and turrets, the galleries and stee- pies, the ornaments-all are of match es. It took more than 100000 match es to build the church and more than 100 pounds of glue used In fastening the 100000 matches securely.-New York Press.

Of course they're sweet and pretty and fragrant, and aii that" she said, giving them a vigorous shake, as though they needed a course in gymnastics. But who wants any thing like that, indeed?
 'Oh, yes. sometimes some men, the ldfashioned kind that wear silk hats and say thank you occasionally buy them. and then, too, when a girl Is In mourning and cant wear anything else. there Is a slight demand. but to send violets to a girl"-she held up her hands in horror.

 For answer was treated to glance emigrant inspector.
 "Like?" echoed sharpeyed Sybil. Why. anything that stands out, shows off; lets everybody know that you're wearing them, speaks for themselves; that's what they want"
 She swept by bower of roses, dusky with velvet beauty, and pointed to great patch of gaudy orchids.
 "There. there.' she exclaimed. That's the kind that makes the hit; just look at them. There won't be one left after the ball tonight. Of course, I'll have to fall back on the roses to help out. but it'll be those bright ones there," she pointed to a crimson blot staining some snow-whte hyaclnths In the case beyond You know" she con- ided. "I do believe some girls would wear sunflowers if they were only fash ionable.

One of the seasons revivals in street materials is Irunella cloth, fabric something on the order of cash mere, but heavier, and therefore more satisfactory from the tailor's stand point. This year 1t Is brought out in shadow stripes, that showing the chev- ron being particularly good.
 Many new suits are made with quite plain cutaway coats in which sllts have been made on both sides of the front and through which broad soutache braid has been run. The same idea Is used also as decoration for cuffs, and the slits are best buttonholed, so that the braid will not tear the material. The end of the braid is mitered and fin- ished in a silk tassel.
 The newest of sleeves Is a combina- ton of the mikado and the kimono. arranged so that, although the arm hole is fairly small on the top of the sleeve, there Is no seam. The waist and sleeve together are gathered into tho usual fullness, used in the ordt nary way. This allows sufficient ma terial for the sleeve to be arranged in . pufr at the top and gathered again at

records of the deposit company did not substantiate 1t. That cast doubt enough on if so that 1t seemed worth while to look up the cabman who had driven the woman on that fateful day.
 He was found. He remembered the circumstance well.
 Had he any recollection of stopping anywhere else? Scratching his grizzled head, he slowly retraced the course and then said, "Why, yes. We stopped at the bakeshop on the corner or od street, and you went in!'
 Here was the clew. A nasty visit 10 the bakery revealed the newspaper bun dle tucked away on high shelf, with its precious contents undisturbed. There it had stood for fortnight, while a woman and a half-dozen men were staying awake by night and fret ting by day, accusing each other Of lying and stealing, all because one woman's intention got ahead of her performance and imprinted lie on the tablets of her memory.-iouth's Companion.

A TRICK OF MEMORY.

Memory is one of the most useful and least trustworthy of our faculties. II mind 1t weel, but I hae ma doots O ma mind :" said a canny Scotchman in the witness box. A wholesome charity for the mistakes of others was learned perience. She was about to cross the continent for a three months visit. On the day of her departure she went to the safety deposit vault where she kept her yaluables, and said to the manager that she wanted to take her box, with its contents, to her lawyers office for an hour. Could he arrange that for her? The manager assented. and wrapped the box in newspaper. that It might make an inconspicuous bundle.
 The day passed and the woman did not return. The next morning. inquiry revealed the fact that she had gone on her journey. The manager was curious enough to ask her lawyer if he knew anything about the box.
 "She left here intending to take 1t directly to you said the lawyer.
 That was enough to justify tele- gram, as soon as the woman had reach ed her destination, six days later. Tel egram: Where did you put your safe ty deposit box?' Answer: Tn the vault where it belonged" Telegram; Tt Is not there. Return at once"
 Another week passed in wretched suspense for everyone concerned. When the woman arrived, she was in a state of nervous rage, and ready to accuse the officials of every crime in the cal endar. She declared she had driven straight from her lawyer to the vault The manager had himself let her in, and talked with her. Her story was complete in all Its details. But the

of pleated tulle or net, ornamented only by beads to match wound round them and stiff military aigrette. These are really very chic, and the beads, when they are in shades to match the hats, are most becoming and quite novel touch to hats made on this side of the ocean.
 The larger hat Is a straw in natural color, with roses matching 1t on the outside, but shading to pink around the corner. The stems and foliage ex- tend out over the brim and mingle with the bows of changeable rose and green ribbon. The other hat Is white on the outside, with a turned over brim faced with red brown straw. The roses are placed in Hat masses at each side and are bright pink.
 The new toques are a comfortable size, for which elderly women will be thankful. The majority of these hats are on the large turban order, and there Is no shape that Is more becom- ing to the woman beyond her first youth, who likes to dress smartly. Then the trimmings are arranged high, which adds good deal of style, so that altogether middle-aged women may certainly present quite as attract

Rock Which wrecls Many Lives.

Rock Which wreclxs Many Lives.
 The woman who marries a man in the hope of reforming him makes a serious mistake. Reform" is the reef on which many a matrimonial ship has come to disaster. If you love a drunk ard or a gambler, insist on the reforma- ton that is to be the price of your whole future before marriage.
 That is, unless you want your hus- band to continue to drink and gamble after marriage. If you do, just marry the man and say nothing more about It.
 But do not marry a man whose con duct you do not approve, under the de fusion that you can reform him. It Is fiattering to your vanity, I know, when the adored one does the ''misera- ble sinner act and implores you to become his wife and make man of him.
 Don't be flattered. He Is offering you that which a wiser woman would scorn to accept. If he can not assert his manhood and make himself worthy your regard by his own effort, is 1t likely you can work that miracle?
 A man worth saving would realize his own shortcomings and set to work to reform himself before asking you to share his life. When he threatens to make an end of it." or assures you he will go to the dogs entirely unless you take pity on him, tell him to go, and help him find the front door If that will relieve you of his presence any sooner. The very atmosphere brea tined by such weak-kneed individual is contaminat- Ing.
 Marriage Is not sanitorlum for the cure of inebrlates or tonic for the spiritually deficient. A good wife has influence with her husband, but she can not take the place of clear mind or brave soul. She can not even coun- teract the influences of his childhood, although she may soften or in a meas ure strengthen his character.
 It Is folly to expect man who has ruined his health and sapped his will power by dissipation to become sudden

Heat or Coldf

Physicians differ as to choice of hot or cold applications in the relief of pain. Recently they have inclined to ice bags. but the best thing for the home nurse to do is to test both meth ods and choose the one that gives the greater relief.
 Most people when they have head aches are old-fashoned enough to get greater comfort, or at least think they do, from hot cloths or bag filled with boiling water applied to the back of the neck, than from pillowing the head on a rubber covered ice cake.
 For appendicitis, however, ice Is pref erable, as it more quickly numbs the pain and checks the Inflammation.

NO LONGER LOVED.
Violets Purchased Only by Old-Fash- toned Men Who Say "Thank You"

toned Men Who Say "Thank You"
 If a straw may show which way the wind blows, says well-known news paper writer, then violet may also serve as vane to indicate the passing zephyrs of society.
 In the present vanishing of the violet. there Is no better indicator of this radi- cal change between the woman our fathers used to call mother" as she stitched and sewed and smiled upon her little brood, supremely happy with the bouquet of violets that sometimes graced her gown, and the smart, up-to- date Mrs. $.
 Formerly when flowers were distinct ly emblematic, deep with esoteric meaHing, there was no greater compli- ment than to be presented with bunch of violets. Poets the world over, since Adam delved and Eve went violeting, have rhapsodied over the womanly sig nifcance of its quiet fragrance. From first reader dltties about the .mossy dell where the humble violets grew" to Napoleon's eloquent tribute as he plucked 1t as the sprlngtime emblem of his return from Eba, and also of Jo- sephine's devotion, everywhere from garret to throne, 1t has nodded its low ly head, with Il success undreamed of by naughty garden beauties. Modesty, sweetness, innate gentillty - these glowed in the deep blue of each fra grant messenger. But, gracious alive, who wants to be that nowadays?
 "Violets? Dear me. Don't get those" said the florist with a president glance like an up-todate Sybil with fat bank account. They're way out of style. No one ever buys vlolets any more They're too little, too modest" she pointed to few meager bouquets that looked very modest indeed, dropping on their wilted stems.

good effect.

The white duck sailor, broad and straight of brim, Is the smart wear with light spring woolens. A two-inch silk band of white or some solid color is the permitted trimming for these hats.
 A good-looking walking hat of mod crate size was in chocolate-colored rough straw, with wings of the same shade and line of dull gilt banding around the chocolate velvet folds en- circling the crown.
 Straw toques are predicted as being the rage, but there are many women who do not care for straw used in this way, and these will wear toques made
