IN DECORATING THE HOUSE
Severa! Simple But Most Important Principles Which Should Be
 Understood.

There are few principles, simple but most important, which should be understood by every woman who sets out to be her own interior decorator.
 Do not hang curtains of one color against a wallpaper of another.
 If possible to avoid do not put diff ferent papers on the walls of rooms which adjoin, with wide archways or folding doors between.
 If it is necessary, the character of the rooms, to have slightly different kinds of paper, let them be as near alike as possible in color. The design does not make so much difference.
 Do not join carpets of opposite col ors.
 When it is not possible to have car pets alike in rooms joined by wide openings, a rug should be laid over the seam to hide it.
 Oriental rugs, beautiful as they are, should be used with discretion. In a small, many-colored room they are likely to howl at each other.
 They are very good when used to light up one-tone room.

White Net Frock.

A standard white dress, and the most advisable if you are making 1t right now, is the point d'esprit or fine wash net, for the very obvious reason that the whole season is no longer before you, and you, therefore, will not want to make a dress for summer only. The point d'esprit dress is a most useful as well as a beautiful lit. tie dancing frock If it be made in one of the pretty fluffy ways that these sheer dresses naturally call for the yoke and lower sleeves may later be removed and a bit of lace added as a finish. With the addition of little wreaths of artificial pink roses or small punches of red rambler roses, the frock will be ideal for winter eve. nings.

INDIAN RUNS RACE FOR WIFE
Young Mike Thomas Wins FireHy by His Speedy Feet in Five
 Mile Contest.

Charlottetown, P. E. In order to win as his bride the daughter of his chief, Mike Thomas, member of the Micmac Indian tribe, won a five-mile race against John Harley, a local crack. The Indians time was 24 36 2-5, close to the worlds rec ord.
 Thomas recently won a ten,mile road race under one hour This was not enough to satisfy Chief Kars, whose daughter, Firefy, was wooed by Thomas. Her hand was sought by many. but her smiles were only for the slim runner.
 An agreement was reached between him and the chief that if the young brave could beat the best white man on the island the hand of his daughter could be had
 It was at sundown when the race was started, and up in the crowded stand Firefy sat with her father near by. with two sisters.

the picture. The cut of this dress, although including the long hip and suggesting the watteau plait from yoke to belt. is such that it admits of a decided waist line. This shaped belt of shiny leather is made of three pieces, which fit 1t about the figure very snugly.
 The straight patent leather worn with the striped linen morning frock, although made of one piece. is also an outlined belt and fastened with a square leather covered buckle.
 Now, the French woman oversteps the mark when she wears her beloved shiny belt with the fitted foulard gown of princess cut, but to her the girdle seems an irresistible accessory. Paris ians always feel privileged to perform remarkable feats in fashion making, but fortunately the sensible American is given to adaptations. She will, in all probability, wear the extreme pat ent leather, but instinctively with gowns made for it; with models hay ing a blouse and skirt and distinct waist line. The leather belt is at it's best worn with a turnover collar and a four-in-hand or with a Puritan col lar and Windsor tie.

THE BANG IS HERE AGAIN
It Will Be Worn by the Ma. jority of Women Next
 Winter.

Although much protest was made last winter about the re-appearance of the bang" ac- oss the forehead, 1t seems to be rather firmly intrenched now.
 The majority of women will wear it this winter. In large measure it will be becoming. It will compel women to lift from their foreheads that low-hanging mass of hair, now the fashion. and substitute it with tiny, wavy fringe.
 It is absurd to cut the hair to make this bang. One can buy it by the piece in any hair shop and attach it under ones own hair by an invisible hairpin.
 One should be extra careful not to get it thick or straight
 The poodle bang, once so fashion able in the eighties of the nineteenth century, also promises to return. It has already done so in Paris, but there it, like the wavy fringe, only accompanies the fiattened pompadour.
 Both of these have been introduced to give softness to a forehead from which the hair has been lifted. and also to give a showing of hair under the hat
 They should never be worn with the hair severely parted in front

Paris loves the pulledin waist line. While she has held bravely and long to the high-waisted skirt on many of her gowns, and, indeed, with an ardor not known in America. she has grasped the opportunity with the very first gown that admitted of it, to put on a leather belt, and a close one at that.
 She has worn this belt during the summer with some of the foulard and lingerie gowns and with the best of her linen morning fr0cks. She has strained point to wear it with dresses that were scarcely built for it.
 In this particular fashion period through which we are passing, the belt is frequently impossible with the half-fitted princess of the moyen age, except it be the loose leather belt of the silken girdle run through slots opened beside the princess panels. The pulling in of a closely fitted princess is about as awkward as any thing that could well be imagined, but the Parisian woman, who always finds her opportunity, has worn a shaped leather belt successfully with a model like the white pique shown in

posing prehistoric ruin in America and the largest and most spectacular cliff dwelling in the world.
 Primarily Dr. Fewkes' labors were intended to aid in the preservation of the Cliff palace-to prevent it's fur ther decay and demolition and to place it in condition for the enjoy ment and edifcation of the increasing number of tourists and sightseers that annually drift that way Another ob- jest in view was research-to gain. if possible, some insight into the state of culture. the manner of life and ways of thought of the fat-dwellers of prehistoric America; to ascertain their relationship, if any, to the eX- isting tribes of the southwest and to make possible an intelligent guess as to their origin and their fate.
 No attempt was made at restoration or reconstruction; that would have been destructive of the sentiment to which the relics of the people of the stone age owe the major part of their interest. The old ruins, remain now. uS DtAOit, Aiit hllI.dl ltu ana uldlr tered work of the people of the back
 The excavation of the accumulated debris and dust heaps of the centuries has been carried on with the greatest care to avoid the working of further destruction Walls that seemed in danger of falling have been patched, buttressed or braced to save them from utter demolition and to preserve them in their present condition for the edification and wonderment of fu. ture generations; but the ragged sky line of the great Cliff palace has not been marred with modern stone and mortar and not trowel has anywhere been applied excepting as a conserv ing (not as rebulding) agent For what he has refrained from doing. quite as much as for what he has done. Dr. Fewkes deserves the grati. tude of all who are inter asted in American antiquities.
 From scientific viewpoint the most interesting result of Dr. Fewkes investigation of the Cliff pala 70 is the conclusive evidence brought to light cf the close ltiorship of the Hop Indians of northern Arizona to the prehistoric cliff dwellers of the Mess. Verde
 Dr Fewkes' excavations have re- vealed the fact that the Cliff palace is much larger than has ever before been suspected. The lower terraces and apartments were covered, filled and entirely hidden by fallen walls, talus from the cliff and the rubbish of centuries. All this has been cleared away. showing that the Cliff palace contains 175 rooms and 23 kivas. It may have accommodated a population of anywhere from 700 to 1000 psr sons.

USES FOR A PALM

The pie question came before the Omaha board of education when the opening of a restaurant in the high school building was up for discussion.
 Members discussed what should be
 served to the students, and which
 fcods would bring the best results as
 brain foods.
 Two members opposed pie. The
 others, II Ill number, insisted that
 pie is the best thing that children can
 eat. Arguments waxed warm, but the friends of pie were largely in the ma jority. ut if they adopted pie as food for the growing youth of the city 1 they wanted to do so by unanimous vote.
 1 The two members opposed to pie
 urged an expert opinion from the prin- | cipal of the school. The professor was l sent for and the proposition put up to 1 him. After hearing both sides he re
 marked that, aside from the pies that l mother made" all pies are good. Not 1 only are they good but owing to their l internal construction, "as brain food 1 they have fish beaten a mile and then l some"
 That settled it, and even if authori- i ties on dietetics have been at logger heads for years. pie is now an author 1 ized and fit article for human food. Prof. Graf declares that some of l the learned men, in spirit of jest, 1 have said that the spirit of unrest that prevails throughout the country is due | to the love for and the eating of pie, while on the other hand just as learned i experts have staked their reputations 1 that there is nothing that is more soothing to the nerves and a tired ! brain than a large section of pie, 1 eaten at night just before retiring. The pie for the Omaha high school i will be made in the building, where a ! culinary department is being installed. 1 Pie will be served to all high school l pupils who care for the delicacy, and
 this will be done with the official
 stamp Of approval of the board of edu- ] CatiCn.

St. Louis.-Surgeons who overlook kit of tools and sew them up in pa. tient are liable for damages, accord ing to a decision presented in the case of Russell Johnson of Lockridge, la, against Dr. Charles E.
