Eor BABY Ribhon.

The girl who knows how disreputa-
BILE baby ribbon can become unless
daintily CARED for will welcome sim
pie, washable case that can be made
in a few minutes.
A somewhat large embroidered hand
kerchief with border running around
it was cut in half, each piece making
a case The half was turned up 80
that irsfolds in thirds, with the outer
side coming down as a top or cover.
The part cut in two was finished
with a narrow hem and the ends were
finely overcast together, The case was
then divided into Eve compartments,
three smaller ones, one on each end
and the third in the middle, and two
larger spaces between. These latter
were made big enough to hold bod
kin run through the card on which
the ribbon was wound.
Small cardboard reels were made to
fit each compartment. These were
slightly curved on each edge to keep
the ribbon from slipping.
2 The advantage Of such case is that
it is quickly Numbered and takes UP
no room in a bag or trunk. If intend
ed for a present, each reel can be filed
with a piece of baby ribbon in differ
ent colors, the bodkin can be OF silver
or different colored ivory and a tiny
pair of scissors can be attached to
one Of the reels. These make mex

TAKING CARE OF SHADE TREES.

Professor Britton, the state entomol-
ogist, is lecturing in different parts
Of the state upon the proper care Of
shade trees and the method of in
creasing thera in our cities.
Connecticut is in need OF instruction
along these lines. We are not up to
date. We do not seem to appreciate
the value Of the trees which stand in
our streets, testifying to the thought
fulness, taste and good sense of our
forbears. Professor Britton is needed
In all parts of the state.
During the last Ice storm a hand
some maple tree in this city was
broken in two by the weight of ice
and a large strip was torn from it's
trunk for distance of five feet. The
severed part was taken. away and the
tree stands there with its fresh
wound bleeding sap and giving evil
dences of dying for want OF care. In
cities where trees are appreciated
such a tree would be rounded out
with cement. be given a taut canvas
covering painted the color Of the bark
and 1t would be slightly and thrifty
for years to come. Not so here. The
tree has suffered severe injury and is
left to live or die as fate DEGREES. Aid
to the wounded is not yet extended to
trees.
The shade-tree question is just as
vital as any question, and the people
will yet come, to so regard it and to
care for their public trees with the
same painstaking thought that they
do their trees on private estates.

A MIsFlT MEASURE.

II IN c6mmendable in our legislators
10 seek to protect the public from I'M
pure food and from short measure, and
we are all anxious to see the food
adulterer and tho cheat go down-get
his Just deserts, but sometimes good
intent appears as a bad blunder.
The Hartford Courant calls atten-
ton to this proposed bill as an ex-
ample Of a misfit measure which would
produce confusion:
House Bill 14s. An act concerning
weight on packages containing food
stufrs.
Section l. Every package contain
ing food intended for human consump-
ton offered for sale in this state shall
have printed on said package tho net
weight Of the food therein contained.
Section .. Any person selling any
sslch package containing less weight
OF food than is printed thereon shall
be fined 81 and costs for every such
sale.
The Courant goes on 10 explain
that "a great many package goods
sold in this state are not dealt in by
pound weight at all. A single In
stance OF this is found in the multi
tude OF articles produced by the Ma
tional Biscuit company, which are
recognised as standard. These are
not sold by the pound but by the
package or box The packages or
boxes are machine made and Of the
same size and they convey the same
number of biscuit, for example, to
each buyer. Climatic conditions might
alter thar weight from day to day.
II Is the same with other goods The
United States law prescribes a heavy
penalty in case anybody marks
package a pound and the package
fails to yield a pound. But when a
package is simply packa 'e, bought
with open eyes by the customer, there
Is no cali to compel its weight and
to levy a penalty for its inevitable
variation from the record, for with
some foods the same package viii
weigh more one day than another.
The proposal is n1anifestly unnec-
essay and It is likely that on inspee-
ticn by the committee this viii devel-
op and the project be dropped. Its
adoption could only make confusion"
The Courant calls attention to facts
familiar to patrons everywhere and
the sense and 1ustness of It's opposi-
ton to the bill is self apparent. \
There is no cheating In the way these
packages are sold.

Arabian Satin for trimmings.

One OF the most effective and the
cheapest sort Of trimmings may be
made by using bias bands Of Arabian
satin sewed UP on the machine over
thick white cord. 1t 10 then twisted
in different shapes, for It is very sup
pie, so that it forms bow knots and
circular designs for the evening or
afternoon gown. OF course. the satin
is too dressy to wear on a suit or
morning dress, but with a coat of filet
net a more attractive trimming could
not be found. The same idea Is car
rIed out in footing, which ie shirred
very full over a cord. This will some
times take the place OF braid.
Another inexpensive trimming is
to embroider cotton canvas in a cross
stitch, which takes very short time
TO do. When finished 1t may be APP
piled in many attractive ways to sum-
mer gowns.

Woman in Life and in the Kitchen.
TO CARVE ROAST BEEF.

How to carve a roast OF beef depends
upon the form In which the roast is
placed upon the platter. II 1t includes
several RIBS, furnishing sufficient room
for base of bone, 1t may be SO put
before the carver that he may cut
perpendicularly in thin slices, passing
the knife in a line parallel with the
ribs. II, however. the roast be laid
upon the side. as Is usual. the same
direction Is to be observed as to the
cutting lines parallel to the ribs.
When tenderloin roast is to be
carved, having but the one large bone
which divides the tenderloin from the
more solid portion. there is little
chLice whether the knife Is drawn with
or transversely to the grain; the ten
derness Of the meat Is assured in
either case. It may be more con-
venient to sever entirely the tender
loin from the frmer part Of the roast
before beginning to slice. This will
leave the carver at liberty to serve a
portion of each quality OF the meat to
every guest. as the tenderloin may not
be of sufficient size to serve 10 all.

MEErlNo wlrH DEPOSITION.

The proposition 10 make a summer
home for the president of the United
States upon the West Point reserva-
ton Is not considered with favor by
the press, whether II is to cost $40, 900
or $4,000.
A good objection Is the appearance
II would give the establishment Of
military protection, thing necessary
for monarchs and self-assured divine
right rulers, but not for the president
Of a republic who is administering
the government by the Will of the peo-
pie for the people.
II is not probable that President
TAFT or any other president, would
desire a permanent establishment at
West Point, as attractive and whole
soma as the place is, for the privilege
OF selecting ones place and when
weary Of II having the privilege Of
changing 10 another Is appreciated by
the first man Of the nation as well as
by all others who are equally able to
provide a summer home for them
selves.
The country needs no summer abode
for its president. Gray Gables, in
Buzzards bay. was good enough for
Cleveland; Oyster Bay was satisfac-
tory to Roosevelt and any place Taft
may select on the North shore Of
Massachusetts, VIII be satisfactory to
him and TO the country.
Our presidents are fellow citizens
who are Of the people and who love
70 dwell among them. and can do
so without fear Of violence. The last
thing an American president should
do 70 to through fear follow in the
footsteps Of royal tyrants with ref
ersncs to personal protection.
The president Of the United States
is protected as he should be, and he
needs no military abode or guarded
mansion for his protection. or military
show.

Forest MANAGEMENT.

Conservative management of tim
berlands is assured for less than one
fourth of this country's forested areas
the part contained in the national for
ests and under the administration OF
the United states forest service. BY
cutting only the mature trees and pro-
tecting the new growth by keeping
out fires the national forests will be
made to yield indefinitely. It cannot
be expected that this small part of
the nations forests will supply the
demand for future generations and the
one hope in sight is that users Of wood
and lumber manufacturers viii insure
the permanence Of their business by
applying the principles of forestry in
the management OF timberlands.-Wa-
