a charge OF ombezsiing preferred by
the United States government hang
ing over hts head
A fondness for good clothes and a
gay life, which he could not realize
on his sixty-six dollars and ~sixty-six
cents per month salary as a p~cstoffce
clerk led TO smiths undoing.
For some time past p~ostofhce de-
tectives have Swallowed Smith, both
while working in the postofhcc hand
ling the mails and while enjoying
himself at various places of amuse-
ment. The postofnce department had
received numerous complaints re-
garding letters that had been tam
pered with and In some instances
money removed from them. Smith
was suspected and several decoy let
tcrs mailed by inspectors were sen
through the mail. Smith was clever
In his pilfcring, however, and did not
fall very easily. He Was caught with
the goods or by IA p%ostofflcc Inspector
early yesterday morning, however. and
was placed under arrest Immediately
after he had slipped "A dccoy letter
into his pocket.
Smith was held in jail yesterday
without bond and win probably not
be given a preliminary hearing until
the amount of his cmbczzloment is
definitely known, which may possibly
not be asCcrtaincd FOR several days.
II Is thought that Smith did not get
any deeper into the government than
somc three or -four hundred dollars.
smith was employed for several
years as "a saloon porter at the old
Zeigrr cafe. He passed the civil SER
vice examination for p%ostoficc work
"a year ago and was given the posi-
ton of distributing clerk.

Dainty Sandwiches
Acceptable for Parties

Fetching little sandwiches for a card
party refreshmcnt or supper can be
made I'm the following way: Cut slices
from a milk loaf, trim them and usinc
q sharp knife cut them into the shape
OF cards. Butter each slice thinIy on
one side and spread half the number Of
slices thinly with any timed FISH - ste,
say anchovy. The paste should have
been previously mixed with whipped
cream.
Have on hand some heart and diamond
shapes stamped from picked cherries
and trufflcs with small tin cutters. Now
put the slices together TO form the sand
witches, one having the paste. Of course.
with one that has the butter alone.
Decorate them TO represent spot cards
by pressing on the little shapes with a
little cool apple jelly TO make the gar
Uish adhere.
The diamonds and hearts should be
cut from the picked cherries and the
black suits from the trufhes- Do not
pile the sandwiches up, as this might
destroy the decoration, but spread out
on a large bread plate and replenish
the latter from time TO time.

Styles in Milady's Stationery
Follow Latest Modes in Dress

- TYLES in writing paper follow the
mode in dress, as the trail Of the
dog follows the way his nose
points. Thus we have the latest
creation from the paper loom. if paper
is made IN looms. in the Ottoman papers.
These, together with the fine. delicately
tinted japanese papers are the "dernier
cri." The sheets. by the way, are much
more generous in size. ditto the envel-
opes. And the sheets are nearly square
The Ottoman is simulated, rather than
actual, as the ridges would naturally
interfere with the free movement OF the
pen.
The stylish high handwriting so much
affected by society women for some time
past is quite out Of IL, has been super
seeded BY an attempt at a revival of the
old-fashioned angular handwriting Of
the grand danes Of the second empire.
It is becoming. also, on the large square
sheets Of delicately tinted Ottoman. And
on the fine Japanese patterns il is yet
more characteristic. The plain English
papers in the solid blues and in cream
will always be used by conservative
ladies OF the old school These, how
ever. come in lighter weights than for
merly. And there are some new tints
like cobalt, veldt. which is a dull burnt
grass shade. and some delicate yellOws
and pinks known as the Sahara

MOST BOYS LIKE
ANY GOOD READING

The amUsements OF boy life would
not be complete without reading. Most
boys read in a hit-or-miss way because
they read what is most available, and
Yet what the usual boy likes TO read
can be made profitable TO him. The
normal boy likes. first. stories of other
boys and Of adventure, stories of ami
mails personifled and tales of hunting
and athletic prowess, because they ap-
peal TO the primitive in him and fur
nish him with book chums. This read
ing gives him a taste for literature, a
command Of his own language, and Will
be naturally based upon his love OF
cOmpanionship. This boy next likes
natural science, reading about animals
and trees in their native lands; about
the forces Of nature and the Harvesting
OF these by machinery. Boys are Curl
Gus, and such reading tells the why
Of what he sees and uses all about him.
1t increases his powers Of careful OBJ
servation. Then history, especially biOg-
graphy, has its place because this citi-
zen in embryo is beginning to feel that
he is a part of the world past and pres
ent. The boys numberIess interests and
activities group themselves along a few
lines, and he wishes to be encouraged
and led in these by one whom he can
admire as d hero. Cannot the home

Hints for Kitchen

II you wish mustard to be pungent,
whether It is to be used incidentally
or at the table. mix It with cold water
The pungency Of mustard is due 20 a
volatile oil This does not exist IN dry
mustard, but is formed when the dry
mustard has been wet with water. Hot
water hinders the formation Of the oil,
and boiling water almost prevents its
being made at all.
Take care how you use bitter almonds
They are dangerous things. When wet
with water they give rise to prussic acid,
one Of the deadliest pOisons known.
Fortunately, It is volatile, or fatal ac-
cidents would happen more frequently.
Never try to cleanse with soap vessels
in which vinegar has stood Do not ap-
ply soap to any article soiled with other

Matching Wall Paper
Adds to Most Houses

There IS nothing that spoils an other
wise attractive house more than glazing
cciOr effects or poor combination OF
colors-not merely the colors in one
room, but in those roOrrs that adiOin.
What is more CHASTITY than TO see a.
green paper in the front room, no mat
ter what the quality may be, and a
brilliant red in the next, particularly
when there are folding doors between.
When such doors are used the paper
should match, anc the hangings used
should be Of the same tone, or else d
low tone in a contrasting color.
Hardwood floors should be used in
every room. Not only do they make
less work but floors are moro attrac-
tive with rugs than when entirely
covered. For the living room and cham
bers there is nothing more serviceable
than the old fashioned rag rugs that
grandmother used 70 have.
a rich Oriental rug should be used for
the parlor or best room. They are
costly, 20 be sure, but are a better IN
vestment in the end. The dining room
should have no floor covering Rugs are
best for all han use, FOR they receive
constant wear, and therefore require
more care

windows must not be without their sash
curtains. but as for the best room. that
is largely a matter Of taste and pocket

house, it all depends on the individual.

Underwear Hints

Should one wear wool. cotton, or
linen next to the skin? Wool has its
fanatics, to whom discarding their
flannel or merino vest or drawers
would seem like risking their lives.
But the opinion Of physicians has
changed notably in recent years, and
now many II not most OF them favor
cotton or linen next the skin.
The reason IS that wool absorbs
perspiFatiop and retains it; it absOrbs
1t with difficulty at first, but sur
renders it to the surrounding air with
even greater difficulty. Cotton. on
the other hand. asks only an oppor-
tunity TO dry, which IL does as
rapidly as possible.
The best plan in cold weather is to
wear cotton. OF linen. 81 YOU can afford
It. next the skin. with wool outer cloth
ing The wool excludes moisture and
cold while the cotton absorbs the per-
spiration quickly and dries even more
quickly. and this without chilling the
body if the latter have an outer cover
ing Of wool.
In this climate especially, where
houses and Offices are generally over
heated in winter and where, consequent
". the transition from indoors to OUTS
doors is attended by a far greater
change in temperature than in milder
climates where the houses are not kept
so hot as in America. It Is better 70
wear cotton or linen Inderclothes and
to rely upon heavy outer garments 10
resist the cold Of the Wintry air.
