Meat-Eating.

Mrs. Ernest Hart, who recently

that intoxicating is bad for the

obliged to live together as in En-

have not been lacking daring
navigators to plunge into the

Chance for the Youth.

Young men who are residents Of
country districts should be impressed
with the fact that there are chances
for every one to get along in the
world If endowed with a good quality
of brain matter and the desire and
the ability to work, and work rightly
and industriously.
For the young man starting out in
life there are many pitfalls; not the
ones in the category Of bad habits
and dissipation, but in the business
world. The catchy advertisement in
the want columns Of the daily press or
in the farm journal, $40 to 500 a day."
attracts the attention of many Of the
young men who know little about the
devious methods of the sharks to catch
dollars from the pockets Of the pro
ducers." Many of these concerns aim
to sell to the agent a lot of goods that
are almost wholly worthless, and let
him fight 1t out the best way possible.
Then again, there are legitimate con-
Germs that employ men to sell to the
trade, but they neve hold out prom
Uses Of such great profits.
1t is well to steer clear Of gratis
that are intended to take dollars from
your pocket under the pretense of Civ
ing you employment. If you fell that
you could make a success as a sales
man, there are legitimate houses In
your nearest city that may afford you
an opportunity. But don't think that
you can demand the salary Of a bank
president from the start. You will get
what you are worth, and no more.
The more you can make your services
of value to your employers, the more
pay you will receive. Good men are
always in demand. Chances for ad.
vancement were never better, but the
field is narrowing year by year, owing
to change in commercial methods, and
concentration in almost every line,
II you would succeed in commercial
life, get the idea out Of your head
that getting to the front Is q snap
and the path a iowery one. Work II
necessary II you find an honored place
among the winners.

He was standing over me, a ter
rible yet a magnificent figure. AS he
hurled these words at me, I vas sure
he had really lost his mind; that
was in the presence of a man truly
mad. But only for an instant; then
my horror, my anger turned to a
| great, crushing, all~-consuming agony
of pity for Bob, and l dropped my
head on my hands and wept. 1t is
hard to admit it, but it is true
wept uncontrollably. In an instant
the room was quiet except for the
sound of my own awful grief. l heard
it, was ashamed of it, but l could moi
stop. The telephone rang again ant
again, wildly, shrilly, but there was
no answer. The stiffness became sc
oppressive that even my sobf
quieted. l gasped as the lump in my
throat choked me, then l slowly raised
my eyes.

Editor Realizes Situation.

It has come to a time when the
business man must take note of the
mail order concerns. They are con-
tinually growing larger and taking
more trade out of the smaller towns.
OF course we all know that it is not
right for Williamsburg people to send
their money to Chicago or New York
or other places for their groceries,
dry goods, etc., when we have people,
lneighbors and friends selling the
same goods right at home. The local
merchant has no one to blame but
himself for the condition which now
exists. This may be a little hard, but
1t is true. Many of the local mer-
chants do not let their old customers,
and prospective new ones, know of
the articles they keep by advertising
them. The mail order houses are the
largest and most successful advertis-
ers in the world, and without adver-
Using they could do no business. Now,
if they a afford to spend hundreds
Of thousands Of dollars a year to keep
their old customers informed and to get
new ones, the local merchant could put
a big "kink" In the mailorder business
by adopting the same method on q
smaller scale.-Wilkinsburg (Pa.)

as to say what I did. I'll do the only
thing | can to atone. I will stop this
panic and undo as much as possible
of my work; and now that | have
wrecked Reinhart / I'M through with
this game forever, yes, through for
ever"
He pressed my hand in his strong,
honest one and strobe into the ex-
change ahead of the crowd. All was
chaos, although the trading had toned
down to a sullen desperation. So
many houses, banks, and trust COM
panies had failed that 10 man knew
whether the member he had traded
with early in the day would on the
morrow be solvent enough to carry
out his trades. The man who had
been long in the morning, and had
sold out before the crash, and who
thought he now had no interest in the
panic, found himself with his stock
again on hand, because of the failure
of the n to whom he had sold, and
the price cut in two. The man who
was short" and who a few minutes
before had been eagerly counting his
profits now knew that they had been
turned to loss, because the man from
whom he had borrowed his short
stocks for delivery would be in no
condition to repay for them, the next
day, when they should be returned to
him. The "short" man was himself,
therefore, long" stocks he had
bought to cover his Short" sale. In
depressing the price he had been
working against his own pocket in
stead of against the bulls he had
thought he was opposing. All was
confusion and black despair. There
is, indeed, no blacker place than the
floor Of the stock exchange after a
panic cyclone has swept it, and is
yet lingering in its corners, while the
survivors Of its fury do nc: know
whether or not 1t will again gather
force.

was made of white challis, with large
delicate pink roses scattered over it
and stripes of pale blue forming a
sort of trellis for the flowers. About
four or four and a half yards are
needed for an average size matinee
made in this style. The back is in
two pieces, with a bias can down the
center; the front is in two, while each
sleeve is in n piece. To make the
matinee, cut a piece of the material
In the shape Of the diagram marked
with the letters D, E and B, laying D
on the straight edge of the material.
Then cut out another section like the
one marked A B c, with the line
B on the straight edge of the ma
tetrial.
The diagram A J G shows only half
of the kimono sleeve, the fold of the
material coming on the side marked
with the letter ]. The dotted line
forming a triangle on the shortest of
the four sides of this piece shows how
to shape the ends of the sleeve for
the back. The front side is left like
the pattern and the back sloped on
the dotted line. In putting the mat
inee sections together great care must
be taken to get them in the correct
order. 1t is best to start with the
backs and sew the bias running
down the center. If the material is
of fairly light weight this may be
managed successfully by a French
seam, but if it is at all heavy, then
the seam should be covered with silk
binding and pressed open.
The sleeve section forms the yoke both
back and front, and for a certain dis
lance it is joined to the back and
front of the jacket, and then the two
edges of the sleeves are put together
to make the kimono effect. For exam
pie, A, which marks the top of the
back joins A, the yoke end of the
sleeve. These two pieces are sewn
together to a distance marked by a

KEY BRACELET MUCH LIKED.
Is One Of the Most Pronounced Fads
Of the Season.

One of the small fads Of the season
Is the key bracelet, which is both use
full and ornamental and whose orig
inality promises to make 1t a uni
versal success among women. The
bracelet is made to resemble q three
strand bracelet. The two outer
strands are close and heavy. The in
ner, or middle, strand is a chain. This
chain, which fits as neatly into the
two outer strands as IL It were woven
solidly with them, has attached to one
end a small golden key. The golden
key fits neatly into a frame on the
back of the bracelet, and since It
fastens down with a spring seems to
be merely a part Of the characterization
of the brace,e-. But by pressing a
spring the key is released and the
chain also freed at one end, so that
the key may be used. The idea of the
bracelet is that a woman may have all
her belongings under lock, said lock tc
be opened only by the master key
which is the little golden ornament
OF course the Invention has the disad
