For tho Woman Who Cooks.

Few women can resist the appeal of
a daintily made apron. For sewing
or at a chatting dish an apron Is indis-
pensable. and many persons like to
wear one around the house at light
tasks that do not require them to be
enveloped In more serviceable aprons.
A dainty affair of this kind, one that
would make a nice Christmas present,
Is so simple In construction that any
n can develop it
All that is needed is a square Of thin
material-Persian lawn. sheer nainsook
or fine barred dimity. The size of the
square can be varied from a yard to
forty inches or even more, according
to the height of the wearer and the de-
sired length of the apron.
Make an inch wide hem on the four
sides and hemstitch it on n or both
edges of the drawn threads, rs pre-
ferred.
Hold the square to you with a point
at the bust line, and at the waist line
shape it by several groups of fine
lengthwise tucks to form q small bib
top. On each side of the point so
formed put ties of the material two
inches and a half wide. These may be
hemstitched all around. or they can be
hemmed on the edges and finished in a
deep hemstitched hem at the bottom.
This dainty apron is capable of many
variations. In addition to the hem
stitching. a bowknot design can be
worked 10 the corner that forms the
bib and at the bottom corner directly
below it. or the -four corners can be en-
broidered. those opposite the bib line
taking a smaller motif.
An individual touch a be given by
hemstitching as described and working
In the bib corner a large ovGl medal
lion with a monogram In the ENTER.
Touches of color could be introduced
In the embroidery with good effect.

Dear Sir: Todd d Downing, contrac-

have painted Devoe for 8 or 4 years.
They say it takes less gallons Devoe
than of any other paint they have used.
That means hat a job costs less with
Devoe; not only for paint, for labor as
well.
They paint nothing else, Devoe ex-
clusively.
They have said nothing about the
comparative wear of Devoe and others,

for that. But Devoe is the strongest
paint; that's why least gallons; best

The Decay OF Lumber

The forest service of the United
States Department of Agriculture pre-
pared the following for distribution
throughout the country:
"Millions of feet of timber and finish
ed lumber rot every year in railroad
ties, bridges, trestles, piles, farm build
ings, fences, poles, and mine props.
The lumber consuming public Of the
United States pays perhaps thirty to
forty million dollars a year to make
good the losses from wood decay.
These great drains are a source OF
more and more concern each year.
Chemists and engineers who have to
do with the uses of wood are working
increasingly IN the problem. The
U. s. Forest Service has men who de-
vote their whole time to it. The i'm
portance of the problem can not be
overestim ated. Millions of dollars are
annually saved by preservative treat
ment of tlmbers, but much yet remains
to be learned.
Wood decay is caused by fungus, a
vegetable growth sometimes so small
that 1t can be seen only with the micro
scope. Its roots or branches, like mi
mute hairs, force their way into the
wood tissues and absorb or eat away
the solid parts. The collapse which
results is called decay. Timber is
artificially preserved by forcing into
its cells and pores certain substances
which prevent the growth of fungi.
sufficient quantity, the germs of de-
cay-the threads and spores of fungus
can not enter, and the wood is pre-
served. This often means doubling
and sometimes trebling the life of the
timber.
The United States government con
siders the Investigations of the preser-
vative treatment of timber of such i'm

en- over entirely to the work of expert
ments in cooperation with railroad
com panies and other corr o%rations and
individuals in prolonging the life OF
railroad ties, mine props, bridge timbers,
fence posts and transmission poles.
The lengthening of the life of timber
means the saving of thousands of dol
lars annually through doing away
with the heavy Expense of labor and
cost of material for renewals

Watch fobs are favorite presents to
men from girls who are clever at de-
signing and making hand wrought
jewelry. Fobs of copper set with
variscite, a pretty green stone. and
mounted on tar suede of a heavy
quality are very smart. 1t is a fash
ion, too, to have belt buckles made out
of old watch cases and from old pic
ture frames. not to mention charming
girdles from old fashioned chased and
fretwork napkin rings. The ring is
cut into perpendicular strips, the strips
being fastened together with silver
chains In an ornamental design. Old

An Extra THANKSGIVING.

A very notable proclamation inde-
pendent of the regular autumnal
Thanksgiving day. though in the Off
cial records it is designated not as a
proclamation, but as 'the presidents
address to the people for thanksgiv-
ing and prayer" was McKinley's pro-
mitigation of July q, 1898. The presi-
dent addressed his words ITO the Peo-
pie of the United States of America"
He referred to the fact that ito the
yet fresh remembrance of the unprece-
dented success which attended the OPP
e~rations of the United States fleet in
the bay of Manila on the list day of
May last are added the tidings of the
no less glorious achievements of the
naval and military arms of our be-
loved country at Santiago de Cuba
and asked the people upon next assem-
bling for divine worship Ito offer
thanksgiving to Almighty God. who has
watched over our cause and brought
nearer the success of the right and
the attainment of just and honorable
peace"

THANKSGIVING In Moses Time.

In some respects our Thanksgiving
resembles the Jewish feast of taber-
nacles. That was a national institu-
ton appointed by the great Jewish
iawgiver, Noses. 1t was also called
-'the feast of ingathering," held an
nually at the end of the harvest sea-
son. BY dwelling during the feast In
crude booths, or tabernacles, built OF
the branches of olive, palm or pine
trees outside the walls of Jerusalem
and within the streets, the ~Israelites
were reminded of the struggles OF
their f~orefathers In the wilderness,
unhoused, sometimes in despair, then
filled with hope, ever pushing on in
search of 'the better country" where
they might develop their national life.
This feast recalled Gods gracious guild
ance in past history and acknowl-
edged present blessing in an abundant
harvest. Its peculiar characteristic
was the spirit Of rejoicing, praise and
thanksgiving.
