THE FOUNDER OF INDIGESTION.

he forgot to leave the pigs ashore. From the hog comes lard; from lard. indigestion. The moment you put lard cooked food into your stomach, you send a pressing invitation for dyspep- sia to come and take possession.
 You don't need to use lard. though, unless you want to; there is a cooking fat that makes food any stomach can easily digest. It is COTTOLENE; no hog fat-just pure vegetable oil, nutri- tious, wholesome; makes fiaky pie crust, crisp doughnuts, light. rich rolls and cake-in fact, all the things you like. but cannot eat perhaps, because they do not agree"
 COTTOLENE has been well named 'the perfect shortening"

PICTURES FOR DINING ROOM.
Floral Subjects and Dainty, Refreshing
Scenes Most Appropriate.

Dining room pictures are limited as
to subject II one is to choose accord
ing to the accepted standards. The
modern man and woman Of good taste
are fastidious about the company they
dine with, and they prefer no pictures
at all to inappropriate ones. Floral
subjects are suited TO dining room
walls and dainty, refreshing scenes
are appropriate. Figures fit better
into other rooms.
French prints in delicate colorings
are favorite pictures for bedrooms.
They are dainty in subject and tone
and look well in white, gold, pale
gray or any light-tinted frame. For
some time now women have been buy
ing up French prints at auctions and
in the shops to be later hung In their
country homes. The prints are not ex-
pensive and they are perfect for
rooms belonging to the sex they usu-
ally portray. Etchings and photo
gravures are the next choice for bed
room walls. The list of subjects in
this line is so varied and so long that
all tastes and fancies can be suited.
The average hall is too small to
suggest background for pictures, yet
where there is space pictures can be
hung on the slanting walls with a
charming effect. Colored or brown
prints Of uniform size and set in a
uniform molding may be arranged In
an ascending line parallel with the
stairway. often pictures are hung in
this way so close together that the
edges almost touch. Hunting scenes
and quaint old prints are suited to
hall walls. The walls opposite the
stairs may be decorated with few
larger pictures of the same style and
framed in the same way as the small
er ones. A higgledy-piggledy arrange
ment is never in good taste in any
room. There must be a recognized
regularity about the hanging II the
result is to be at all satisfactory.
Photographs are now hung only in
the bedroom or the boudoir. A group
of ones relatives and close friends
may occupy a large space on one
wall. There may be a dozen or more
single pictures framed in small ovals,
circles, squares and grouped together
artistically. French frames, showing
an elaborate festooning in gold across
the top of the picture, are exquisite
for photographs. These may be hung
separately to give the effect of medal
lions against the delicate wall COW
ering.

EMBROIDERY FOR THE DRESS.
Wearer Now Puts the Finishing
Touches on Costume.

Hand embroidery is quite the most
desirable trimming one may have, no
matter what the costume may be,
and one of the very latest ideas Is to
have the dress made up by the dress
maker, and when 1t is finished the
wearer puts in her idle moments dec
Grating it in plain but very conspicu-
Gus stitches. II was thus that an eton
dress was made, the under-blouse OF
filet net. The jacket effect Of Copen-
hagen blue pongee was embroidered
In big flowers, one overlapping the
other, so that it gave the effect of a
huge and artistic bouquet and also a
great deal of embroidery, while In
reality there was very little. The
petals were embroidered in the long
and short stitch finished all round in
a buttonhole stitch, while the inside
of the flowers were finished in French
knots.
The floss was exactly the same
shade as the dress itself, and was OF
the coarsest silk fiber. so that 1t took
not very many stitches to finish the
work, and each stitch showed to the
best advantage.
The same idea is frequently carried
out in jumper dresses and guimpe
frocks, and IL Is surprising how little
embroidery 1t takes to give the gown
that distinctive stamp of elegance that
hand embroidery always adds.

TIE workman wore felt boots. He
had been working until 10 a. m, when
he saw a rattler summing itself on a
fiat rock. He got his flask of whisky
ready and then stuck out his foot to-
ward the snake.
The snake coiled up and ratified. It
jumped its length and buried it's fangs
in the mans felt boot. Grabbing the
snake about the neck, the man poured
a good drink down its throat and
released 1t. The rattler was probably
the most astonished snake in Pike
county. and for a minute seemed
daZed.
Then, as the effects of the whisky
worked upon its system, the snake
began to strike at everything within
reach. It would crawl backward, try
to get into imaginary holes, and twist
about. 1t struck itself several times in
the body, but. as whisky is a proven

At their approach the snake lifted
its head and eyed them sadly, as
though IL considered that they had

the bullet flew past Mrs. Bailey and
she ducked also.
One Saturday night recently Mr..
Bailey purchased revolver and box
of cartridges for burglars. Sunday he
sat down to overhaul and oil up the
mechanism. He began finally to snap
the hammer on empty chambers, much
to the delight of his little five-year-old
daughter Doris.
At the request of the little one to
do it again" Mr.. Bailey repeated the
trick and even showed the child how
to pull the trigger. Then Mr.. Bailey
carefully loaded the gun and placed it
on the chamber stand near the head Of
the bed in his room. Mr.. Bailey tells

New York.-Of course any expe-
rienced playwright knows that the
climax really comes in the third act,
when Chin Kung Gig sits down on a
hot heater in the Harlem police court
and arises therefrom substantially at
once and emits several loud, singed
shrieks, but to begin at the beginning
it should be stated that at six o'clock
the other morning Policeman Lycur-
gus Hemmer was walking north on
Broadway, near One Hundred and
Ninety-fifth street.
There are trees in this portion of
our great city, and from a close
boughed cedar standing on a vacant
lot Policeman Hemmer heard sounds
emerging. The sounds were something
like a dollar watch being wound up
and something like the finish of a
six-day hiccoughing contest and some
thing like throwing an apple core in
the monkey cage.
So naturally Policeman Hemmer
went over there and stood directly
under the cedar trees and looked up

up at the toe like a runner on a bob
sled hit him in the mouth.
Brushing the slipper out of his face
with a careless gesture, Hemmer
looked up into the tree again. The
mate of the slipper was in the act
of descending from an upper bough
accompanied by ladies' sweater, red
with large pearl buttons and a roll
collar, a pair of long black tights, and
uncoiled queue, an advance block

Chinaman. The Chinaman was wear
ing all of these things except the sec
ond slipper.
They all hit on Hemmer's chest In
such a manner that he accompanied
them south to Manhattan island
where he seated himself in a recum
bent posture and recovered his breath
1t was the Chinaman who opened
the conversation. He spoke as fol

Judge, beer and whisky straights, and

and horse liniment, and hearth var

breath like bonded warehouse. What
dye mean by trying to push a pack
age like that up tree?'
The explanation wearied Hemmer,
and. besides, he didn't understand any
of 1t except that the Chinaman was
named Chin Kung Gin, and was a cook
and lived at 20 Mott street; and, any
way. Chin had liquid style of con-
versational delivery like a seller
siphon, and when he put his face close
felt as II he were taking the needle
showers at Turkish BATH So he rang
for the wagon and they all went down
TO the West One Hundred and Fifty
second street station.
In Harlem court Magistrate Ker-
nochan told Gin that he (Gin) was the
first drunken Chinaman he ever saw
in his (Kernochan's) life, but that he
(Gin) was drunk enough to make up
for all the Cinnamon he (Kernochan)
ever saw that were sober.
And Gin, through an interpreter,
said the diagnosis was quite correct,
and then he retired to the prison pen
and sat down carelessly on the steam
heater and got right up again, as al
ready described, and patted himself
on the reverse side. 1t is opined that
while waiting for the second arraign-
msDt he will not be greatly discom-
NODDED II there should be only s. r. o.
in the station house.
But none of these things explain to
Hemmer's satisfaction how Chin Kung
Gin happened to be so far from Mott
street, up tree in Harlem with those
clothes on and that package, at six
o'clock in the morning.
Or ever will.

are nothing but ribbon attached to the
sleeves, carried across the front of the
waist and tied in bow with the ends
left to stream out at considerable
length.
In bodices there is also Japanese
effect in draped waist with broad
bands forming the sleeves. These
bands go down the back, forming and
outlining pointed hood that tapers in
at the waist line. From the pointed
end long tassel depends and rests
on the skirt. This is used in elaborate
