Hg,ifb the Needle ay7d Thread.

One of the incest materials for maxi
ing a b~aby-carriage robe for summer
vacation use is the common white cot
ton crepe that sells for from 12h to IL
cents a yard. To fashion one all that
is necessary is a deep hem set in on
the four sides, and IL a touch of color
is desired a separate lining of pale pink
lawn pinked on the edges with the
scissors or a bow of pink ribbon added.
Such a cover will wash, and requires
no ironing. When baby is taken from
his carriage to the grass or sand the
inexpensive robe will serve as a robe
for him to lie on.
For an evening gown select m
thing in satin-finished crepe de chine,
meteor or chiffon. Canary is a favorite
fall color, and it is a shade that com
bines nicely with cream laces, gold and
yellow braid and is extremely rich worn
with light tan shoes n leather
colored coat.
As a suitable dress for the young

tern to fit neatly over the hips and

Care of Household Linen.


Few housekeepers. realize that all
linen in constant use will keep longer
If 1t is allowed to rest at times. This
same principle holds good with gar
ments and various toilet articles. Take,
for example. the plan followed by a
woman whose house linen is limited.
and who likes to make 1t last. She has
a family of three, and keeps out eight
sheets each week. As soiled ines come
in fresh from the laundry she places
them always at the bottom of the pile.
SO in this way the same sheet is not
used two weeks in succession, but is
sure of a fortnight, If not three weeks
rest" In a store closet she keeps
two other piles Of eight, and every
two months the sets of sheets hat have
been in use are being put into the
cupboard for weekly use. The arrange
ment takes very little time, and it is
more than worth while in the saving
to linen. Pillow cases and towels she
manages in the same way. only the
quantity of the latter is greater.
Her table linen is Used for six months
and then put away for a year.
Luxurious as it may sound to have
such a quantity of linen, the gathering
of it is inexpensive, for the woman
buys a sheet or table V occasionally,
and puts it away, thus keeping her
store in condition. At the same time.
pieces wear out so slowly that there is
never much loss to be made at one time,
the pocketbook is saved accord
ingly.
Linen sheets, like others. wear first
in the centre. and it repays to slit them
down the middle to get the edges in
the place. This is one by tearing
them in two lengthwise. The selvedges
are the overhanded, together with very
fine cotton, that a big seam shall not
be made, and then the raw edges are
hemmed. The life of a sheet is greatly
prolonged if this is lone in time.

To Induce Sleep.

II one stays awake at night because
of the warm weather, or any restless
ness or causes one to
sleep ftfully, q sponge-off with alcohol
has refreshing results.
A small sponge is used, not very well
soaked. 1t is not necessary to get into
the bathtub to do it.
Squeeze the sponge over the body
and wipe it yer the entire surface of
the skin. Apply more alcohol at the
base of the neck than anywhere else.
This cools the blood going to the brain
and soothes the nerve centres.
1t takes only four or five minutes,
and usually the most restless woman
can sleep for hours after such a
sponging. 1t is far better than a cold
or hot bath.

Cleanliness.

Almost anything is preferable to that
of having to sit by persons and endure
the odor of Precipitation from their
body. Nothing but cleanliness will
help 1t, and that means care of the
body every day during the sweltering
season. One wise seer made the re-
mark that Cleanliness was one-half
of a mans faith. and the key to
prayer" Another said, Give me the
amount of soap people use, and I will
make an actual estimate of their
morals" Keep o II clothes clean,
have the body clean, and, above all
things. do not do this and then spoil
all by DOMINIC a corset that has been
soaked, time after time, with perspira-
ton and dried at night. Wash the
corset, have several pairs and air them
thoroughly and don't annoy persons
around you by the unhealthy odor
from our unclean clothes. II Is too
delicate to mention to an offender,
though I once heard a woman remark
that she would like to strike a person
between the eyes for this very offense.

Dear Madame Alta:
Please tell me through your valuable
column how to treat a case of sun
stroke. / would like to know in case of
an emergency. INQUIRING.
According to a prominent local ply
stefan there are two conditions caused
by heat. one called heat exhaustion,
the other sunstroke, or thermic fever.
Because. of the widely different treat
ment required, it is vitality important
that the two conditions should not be
COMPOUNDED. Given a case of heat cX-
haustion, we have as one of the chief
symptoms a lowered vitality, with sub
normal temperature. which is just the
opposite to that which obtains in sun
stroke. 1t therefore follows that IL a
patient with a lowered vitality is given
an ice pack, or any other treatment
which would tend to cause further de-
preston, fatal results might occur. For
sunstroke get the patient in a cool place,
loosen clothing, apply ice or place
patient in a bathtub containing ice
water. I hope this is the information
you require.

I'll ask your kind advice on the follow
Ing:
I am a blonde and my hair is very
oily, which makes it impossible to put
it up. l would like something to make
1t dry and fluffy. Also, what will grow
eyebrows; vaseline will do no good.
With thanks, EIGHTEEN.
There are many chemicals that
would dry your hair, but I would not
recommend them because in time they
would destroy the roots. Wash your
hair frequently. Every w weeks is
not too often while 1t is so oily, and
to the rinsing water add a level tea
spoonful of baking soda. A few drops
of toilet ammonia in the rinsing water
will also be effective, but care should
be taken not to use too much. Use
the following to improve the growth
of the eyebrows:
Red vaseline-2 ounces.
Tincture of cautharides-B ounce.
Oil of lavender-15 drops.
Oil r~osemary-15 drops.
Mix thoroughly and apply to the eyes
brows with a small camers hair brush.

fourth pound of butter, two teaspoons

one-half pint each of potatoes, tur-

finely chopped. Mix thoroughly. place
in the dish, and cover with M quart
of seasoned stock or milk. Cover and

Just now The political sit uatiop is SO confused by conflicting cur rents, local issues and personal recrim- nations, that confidence in the outcome Is not as strong as it was.

HARD TIMES CHECKS POPULATION

The New York Journal Of Commerce has made a discovery that ought to offset that ''New York Socialist, 7" who saw the way to a state of plenty for everybody through a limitation to the size of The family. The Journal finds that hard times in the United States sets a check at once upon immi- sration-whlch serves the same pur- pose of course. So we can always be sure Of gaining good times through the avenue Of hard times, which is prefer able at any rate to the elimination of the baby in the household. Seriously, however, statistics are worth consider ing. The Journal says;
 "Oue of ,he striking evidences of industrial depression in this country is the falling of in immigration since last November, when the effect was first noticeable, For the entire year 1907 the number of immigrants arriv- ing in this country was unprecedented, reaching a total ,oi l,S34, ,l65. There was gain In nearly every month until December over the previous year, when the total was l,2l5,439, which exceeded ali previous records. Even in October and November the number was considerably in excess Of the same months of 1906. The monthly average for the year was over Ill., 900, but iu December the number fell to 66,574, compared with s5,466 in 1906.
 "Immigration in the first ha!i of the year has uniformly exceeded to a con- siderable extent that in the last half. Last year the arrivals in the first six months numbered 743, ,952, or monthly average Of I23, ,992. This year the total for six months was l92, ,656, against 743,- 952 last year, 673,943 in 1906 and 62S,l76 iu 1905.
 But the effect appears not alone in this great diminution in the number Of immigrants. Though we have DO exact statistics Of the departures of aliens from the country during the same period we know from the reports Of the steamship companies that they have greatly exceeded the arrivals. There has been an actual decrease of the foreign population. made up mostly Of laoOrers. This unusual movement has served to mitigate one Of the serious effects Of industrial depression.
