The Man Who knits.

Women do not always stop TO think
how, in the past, and the not very re-
mote past, either, men have opposed
their entrance upon the worlds stage
in the so-called manly occupations. Re
alizing fully that strenuous opposi-
ton. perhaps they would be satisfied
that the majority of men are at least
quiescent, now.
Women as turner's" and workers
in wood and ivory. are rather common
now. but so late as the reign Of Cath
arine H.. II was a branch of work rare
ly essayed by women. That queen,
who. by the way, would certainly be
called a "suffragette" were she living
now. and who would be called
"strong minded" at least, presented
once upon a time. a casket OF ivory
which she had made with her own
hands, to the great Voltaire.
That philosopher was anything but
pleased, regarding the work which the
empress had done as a trespass in the
ranks of men. His manner OF show
ing his disapproval was characteris'
tic He at once learned to knit, and
presented her majesty with a silk
stocking, enclosing Herewith note
of such satirical import and caustic
comment as left 1t easily understood
that the gift was made in spirit OF
retaliation, rather than gratitude.

MORE COATS MUCH WORN.
Dalntily Adorned and Fastened with
Jeweled and EnameIed Buttons.

Smart Partisan women are wearing
attractive moire silk coats over one
piece frocks of cloth.
They are made after the directoire
style. cut away from the waist line In
front to a long point in. the back.
They have richly embroidered waist
coats and revers and are fastened with
jeweled and enameled buttons. The
sleeves are scanty and are finished
with a roll-back cuff. Some OF the
coats are trimmed with long lines OF
buttons, which are of the material.
One excellently good-looking model
Is of ash gray moire silk worn with a
gown of chiffon broadcloth In the same
exquisite shade.
II is short in front and slopes away
nearly to the hem of skirt In the back
The wide collar. long. narrow revers
and waistcoat are of apricot panne
velvet, embroidered with silver bullion.
There are turn-back flare cuffs, caught
with big moire buttons, and long lines
of smaller buttons trim the back Of the
coat.
The hat worn with this costume Ia
of apricot satin, rolled away from the
face on the left side. trimmed with a
band of silver tissue and loose black
aigrette caught with a wide, barbaric
silver buckle.

Cushion Covers.

Burlap and craftsman's canvas are
much used for cushion covers, and
really beautiful effects may be brought
out with very little effort. A design,
conventional or otherwise, cut from
cretone and applied with an embroid-
cry stitch, will make brave showing
at the expense of little time or trout e.

Don'ts for the Nursery.

Don't feed the children highly-sea-
soned food. Don't allow them to use
pepper freely.
Don't give them doughnuts or bat
ter-cakes, or any food made of -four
which has not been cooked for long
time.
Don't let them eat bananas until you
have scraped away the outer white
substance. just next the pulp. II is the
indigestible part Of the fruit. The
children may object to this as II
makes the banana sticky and hard to
manage But this may be avoided by
peeling the skin gradually.

AS baby's little cambric night slip
flannel dressing gown and night pet
ticoat were removed. his mother hung
the tiny garments on pretty little
rack which hung from the back Of ths
chair on which stood the dressing basI-
ket. When his lordship's morning toi-
let had been made. 1t was the work OF
an instant to lift the little rack from
the chair to place beside an open
window where the crib belongir gs
were also airing. The handy little rack
was made of half a window-shade rol-
Ter, wound with ribbon and provided
with a ribbon hanger, to which was
sewed big hook for attaching TO the
chair back. Smaller hooks wore
screwed into the roller at even dis
tances and ON these the tiny night gar
ments were hung.

The suppression of the disease, hog
cholera. a problem which is recognized
as one of great importance to the ag.
ricultural interests of the United
States, has received considerable at
tention during the last 20 years At
the present time few problems are as
intimately associated with the agri-
cultural economy as that which Is re.
lated to the practical eradication of
this animal disease
In 1885 DR.. Theobald Smith and DR..
ID. e. Salmon isolated Bacillus cholera
suis and described that organism as
ahe specific cause of hog cholera. Since
that time continuous line of investi-
cation has been conducted by the bu.
reau of animal industry, United States
department of agriculture, for the pur.
pose of discovering some protective in.
oculation or treatment against the
disease. During the past few years sew.

Two Lunch Dishes.

Chop Suey with Variations )-This
is Chinese dish, and this fact is its
only claim to the name:
Scraps or small pieces of meat (pref-
erably roast) may be put in a pan
with a torn head of lettuce. a pint of
peas. bit of chopped onion. some but
ter and stock or plsin water. Season
well with salt and pepper and boil
for an hour. 1t Is better IL the meat
be first Drowned in butter before the
other ingredients are added Serve
on platter with boiled rice.
Mock Ginger.-This is an excellent
addition to lunch or afternoon tea,
and is less expensive than the real
thing
To four pounds of ordinary citron
add four of sugar. juice of two lem
ons and rinds (sliced thin). A bit OF
ginger root Ito give 1t tang), and cook
until tender, but not mushy. Seal In
glasses. as you will not want TO open
large quantity at once. Serve as a
candy.

Salad with Wine Dressing.

The following wine dressing is very
popular with the sour fruit salads
which are a favorite accompaniment
of roast meat or game.
Red Wine Dressing.-Dissolve half
a teaspoon OF salt and dash of coral
line pepper in tablespoon each OF
Burgundy Cor clareD, and lemon juice.
Then mix with three or four table
spoons of olive oil, and serve.
White Wine Dressing.-ls used with
a salad of white fruits-grapes, melon
or bananas. Follow the above dressing,
using instead of white wine, a red. III
no wine is desired. use grapefruit
Juice and oil, instead of vinegar and
wine.
An English paper says the term
Salad rAmericaine" is used to de
note any salad served and iced in the
double salad bowls, and the term sal
ad a la Washington, means. to them
any sour fruit salad to which the
euchred preserved in spice and
sweetened vinegar) fruit has beer
added.
This addition of spiced (and sweet
ened) fruit to salads may be credited
to American cooks. Fruit of this kint
is usually cut into match-like strips
before being added, This sort of frui
is good not only in salads, but adds
piquancy to compotes for game o.
meat.

America, have been actively engaged
in this study. In 1908 the bureau Of
animal industry published prelim-
mary report in which it was stated
that IL was possible to transmit hog
cholera to healthy swine by injecting
the filtered serum of hogs suffering
from cholera. meteorological exam
tnation proved the absence in this fil-
tered material of B. cholera suis or
other bacteria capable of growing on
ordinary culture media. Since the APP
pearance of the above report the inves-
legations of the bureau of animal in
dustry, as well as the results of ex-
tensive work in other laboratories,
have confirmed the belief that Bacillus
cholera suis Is not the specific cause
of hog cholera. or, more cautiously
stated, that Bacillus cholera suis is not
the geological factor in ali forms of
hog cholera.
From the results which have thus far
been obtained in the present work of
investigation and from those of other
investigators the following conclusions
seem warranted:
Bacillus cholera suis is not the etio.
logical factor in all forms of hog
cholera.
Bacillus cholera suis is possibly a
variety of the common intestinal para.

ed into healthy hogs intravenously
produces acute hog cholera.
The four-hour horse serum under
certain conditions at least, when in
jected simultaneously in small doses
into healthy swine does not produce
infection.
The five-toseven-hour horse serum
when injected simultaneously into the
healthy hog does not produce the dis
ease.
The 24-hour horse serum drawn "a
hours after the animal has received in
travenously approximately $50 &C. of
hog cholera serum, in comparison
with four-hour horse serum, shows
attenuated properties.
The 24-hour horse serum vaccine IN
jected simultaneously and intravenous-
ly. and four-hour horse serum vaccine
when injected in small quantities sub
cutaneously, act as preventives against
hog cholera The 24-hour horse serum,
however, is not constant in respect to
it's protective properties.
Acquired Immunity against hog
cholera extends over period of from
three TO eight months.
A rough estimate shows that horse
serum vaccine can be prepared at q
relatively low cost.

everyday dishes.

sales on the canned goods at many
grocers' this time of year,. 1t is
well worth considering.

and seal in small quantities.
Potatoes la Sligo.-To a quart OF
diced. cooked potatoes. add table
spoon each of chopped onion, pars
ley, two of sweet. red peppers and
salt and pepper to taste. Fry in hot
butter, garnish with parsley and serve
very hot
Caution-Fried potatoes are not any
too digestible at best, but they are
much better If served and eaten imme
diately after cooking.
Sponge cake. To cup of yeast
sponge add one cup of sugar and 6
half cup lard; one egg. two teaspoons
soda and two baking powder. One

The specific cause of the "filterable
