When you wash your Irish lace col
lar, you should always press it while
1t is lying right side downward upon a
Turkish towel four times folded. This
makes a soft surface, and when the
lace is pressed it will have none of
that shiny appearance that iron lacea
gradually acquire. Before washing
any lace all possible holes should be
carefully mended with No. $50 cotton.
When shoes get wet do not put them
near the fire TO dry. Artificial neat
shrinks them. Put them on shoe trees
if possible, and set them where they
will get plenty of air, that is, not in
a dark closet. When they are thor
oughly dry they will probably be hard
and stiff, and little sweet oil should
be rubbed well into them. This should
dry in turn before the shoes are pol
ished
Do not launder stockings with other
clothes because the lint from other
garments will adhere to them. Use
ammonia in water to wash them, and
they will not spot. 1t removes perspir-
alton.
Lemon juice and salt will remove
ink stains if put on soon enough. This
refers chiefly to white materials, as
acid is apt to remove colors.
A weak solution of salt and water
will brighten mattings.

When built of thin white or flow
cred summer cotton fabrics the en-

cut out OF allover embroidery or lace

Striped linen is used in making up
the gown shown in the illustration on

striped linen would also be most ef-
fectiye in this model, while silk, in the

n AINTY, dazzling. delicious, such
are the creations which Dame
Fashion has introduced for the
summer of 1909
To accommodate the clinging,
siinky, fioppy styles now in vogue,
materials are all of kind calculated
to fall in soft folds and drape in folds
known as classic" and which are
purely Partisan. and as much su-
perior to classic folds as the smart

better class of machine-made en-
broidery. rivals hand work in beauty.
and only an adept or the person who
paid the bills could tell the difference
between them.
Our first illustration shows an ad-
mirable design in the latest mode for
our warm season. 1t is a gown that
may be made up in wide variety of
materials, from cloth to chiffon, or
linen to null. A gorgeous dinner
gown could be created by making the
guimpe and stock; the full drawn
pun across the front between the en-
pire band and sash. and the sleeves
of silver tissue with gown of thin
blue satin; or of gold tissue with any
kind of black evening material. In
the first case the empire boiero with
its short upper sleeves; the sash, cuffs,
edge OF overskirt and bottom of skirt
would be embroidered or braided in
silver. In the next instance the black
gown would be embroidered in gold.
To make an afternoon gown of this
model use soft silk or satin, and work
an elaborate pattern of hand-em-
broidery or soutache braid over the
broad part of the bodice, which is
formed somewhat on the bolero order
in regard to brevity, and which serves
TO support the skirt by means of two
broad, embroidered straps which are
buttoned to the top of the sash. OF
course, the strap is usually sewed
firmly to the sash, but it Is quite pos
sible to fasten it on the button and
with a concealed hook and eye in each
corner. This would permit one to
wear sheer blouse on a warm day
without the embroidered covering.
The overskrt is looped in upward
folds on each side, and is embroid.

used upon the bodice. This begins
tn tiny scallop high up the front of
the overskirt, and increases in the
size of scallops towards the bottom
buttons or button effects are set in
each scallop. Usually these are OF
raised embroidery. beginning with a
mere dot and growing to quite large
disc lower down on the overskirt
Upon the skirt is repeated another
narmonizing embroidery or braid de-
sign that extends around the bottom
on and above the hem and straggles

upon the front Of the skirt.

Chivington won on the first ballot by five votes to three. O'Brien, the present incumbent did not make as good. a battle as was expected. It was thought that he was at least powerful enough to cause a deadlock on the first ballot. Chivington was elected for one year.
 The association also decided to play 16S game schedule In 1910; elected w.

A rule was passed requiring all clubs for the players. St. Paul will be an exception to this rule. as 1t may use two parks next season. President Chivington announced that the league headquarters would be- moved from Milwaukee to Chicago about February 1.

Unless something happened between midnight and the hour you received your morning paper Thursday, Mont gomery has the coldest morning of the present winter season on it's hands.
 The tip was given out early wednes- day evening from the weather ofice that the mercury would take a long tumble. The west and central sec tions of the country are reported as being In the grasp of blizzard. and 1t looks as if Old Boreas tried to work off some of his surplus cold weather on the Sunny South.
 Anyhow. as early as o'clock We'd nesday night, reports of lowering temperatures began to come in to the weather shark on the roof of the Fed ernl building. All Northern and Con tral Western cities reported drops in the mercury. That was to be expect ed. However. when Birmingham re- ported the mercury at 20 degrees above zero at o'clock, and Atlanta followed with record of 16 degrees above the vanishing point. 1t began to look as if Section Director Smyth was in earn est about the coldest weather of this Montgomery winter.
 Still, if Thursday is mighty cold and firesides are hugged. the hope is held out that the weather will moder- ate before many moons and some really enjoyable sunshiny days be handed around.
 The prediction for Thursday morn ing is: Minimum temperature, 20 de- grees.

oinpnny Inc0rporatcd tc Exploit and Market Inventfon--May Prove Solution of Deadly Mine
 Gas Problem

Under the name of The Safety Mine Alarm Company. concern has filed papers of incorporation in the offices of the judge of probate of Montgomery county.
 The incorporators of the company are John E. Carney. is connected with the Bell Telephone Company James Mitchiner. of III Wilkerson street. and H. N. Webster, of 22o Bibb street The capital stock of the company is tSo,- 900 and of this amount. $12.00o has been paid in. The i=sorporators are organized with Mir. Carney as presi- dent of the company. Mir. Mitchell as vice president and Mr. Webster. ssec- retary and treasurer. The incorpors- holders
 The purpose Of the company is to exploit and market an inDention to re- move possibility of explosions in mines by the pocketing or diffusion of ia- flammAble gases It is said that tae Montgomery company, the parentcon- cern. will extend to various subsidiary ed in the larger mining districts Of the country.
 The safety system or device the com- pany will exploit Is the invention of A. d'P. Weaver who was for a number of years a telegraph operator employed by the Associated Press in Montgom- cry, and who worked for several years in the telegraph room of The Adver- tiser
 The basis of the Invention Is slectri- city and it proposes to sound an alarm in given places in and about mines. coal and metailiferous. when gas in dangerous quantities collects. The warnings will be given by means of the device in time to rsrmit miners to either escape from the danger zone and from the mine entirely or to seek places where they cannot be injured through an explosion of gas that may follow.
 If the device will do all It's inventor Mir. Weaver, and it's promoters claim. its place will be assured in the mining industry Of the entire world. The danger to life in both coal and metallic ferrous mines Of the world cannot be estimated in view of the uncertainty that exists as to when gas pockef will be pierced by some miners pick or the thrust of a mining machine. Although the mines of the country l particularly those In the anthracite and bituminuous coal sections. are equipped with every known device 10 protect the lives of workers no solu- tlon of the problem of successfully coping with the. mine gas problem has been reached.
 The success Of the Weaver devfcs will be herHided throughout the world as the most wonderful achievement In mining engineering of many decades and as q great boon to humanity.
