PuEEs AS TRIMMINGS.

Putfed material appears as trimming
on many of the best models I'm varying
fabric and for different occasions. The
puff is distinctly new as a tunic edge,
and those OF chiffon lend themselves eN-
ceptionally well TO this decoration.
White dresses Of null and batiste eN-
plot the puff once more. 1t appears
between rows of lace insertion. it edges
the fichu and the chemisette and heads
the lace fiounce Of the skirt.
ON the velvet collars Of evening coats
the pun four inches wide of the same
material proves a rich finish in the alb
sence of fur and is more readily put on
than an equally effective quantity OF
embroidery.

A Lesson In Soupmaking

MANY housekeepers are fond Of
boasting that they can make good
soup out of nothing" What they really
mean is that from we'll managed lard
ors they generally can find sufficient
leftover materials to keep the stock
pot going without making fresh pur-
chases for it. Every housewife ought
to be able to do this. for all bones.
rough pieces OF cooked and raw meat,
remains Of gravies. etc. should be util-
lied in this way The water in which
salt or fresh meat or vegetables have
been boiled. excepting water I'm which
greens have been cooked. makes fine
foundation for soup.
The cooks aim in soupmaklng is 20
draw into the water all the juices and
nutriment from the materials used. In
order to do this it is necessary To bear
the following rules in mind:
First.-Cut the meat into small
pieces, as the more OF their surface
there is exposed to the action Of the
water the more easily and completely
will the juices be drawn out
Second-Put meat and bones into
cold water. as hot would harden the
outside albumen and keep in the juices.
Third.-Boil the soup gently and keep
the lid on the pan: otherwise IL viii

bones must be allowed 10 boil more
quickly than others. in order to ex-
tract their nutriment

EuR CLEANING HINTS

White FUR at this season IS badly
soiled. Instead Of taking it to a pro
fessional cleaner. try filling fur with
dampened white cornmeal, rubbing gen
tly the way the fur lies; repeat until
clean and use dry meal to fluff the fur
Shake well to remove any dust. Dark
fur can be freshened by bran made hot
and rubbed we'll into the furs. Brush
with a clean, not too stiff brush until
the dull look is removed. When mois-
tening meal for fur cleansing purposes

a BEAUTY HINT.

Vaseline is rather overestimated as an
eyebrow grower. To begin with. it at
taches itself to the hair and is not
readily absorbed by the pores Of the
scalp. An excellent hair grower that
may be used on the eyebrows is made
by combining four ounces of alcohol
with two ounces of castor oil and add
ing a few drops of oil of bergamot
Apply this to the eyebrows every night
with a tiny brush. A little massage
every night with the finger tips will
aid the good work of the tonic. Once
week battle the eyebrows carefully
with green soap and warm water.

RINe ON FoREElNoER-

Tho ultra fashion taken up by some
women of wearing a ring on the fore
finger is borrowed from Ilizabothan
days. When anything so conventional
as plain diamond. opal or sapphire Is
worn the effect is not convincing. If

well and rightly
The ring should be an antique. such
ass Mr.. Chase the portrait painter. coll
lects. or IL should be the copy of an
antique The stones need not be rare
gems; they may be semiprecious. but
they must be quantity set.

this kind worn on the forehnger of this
queen. who cared inordinately for In,

THE FAMILY LUCK AT CARDS

when cards run badly, and opponents
are successful If just once in awhile
the most jealous minded person of the
family would go to the hostess and
say, IF l should win the prize please
count me out and give it to the one
who gets the next highest score" the
stigma which the title of mug hunter
implies would be removed. and the
prizes won would be better worth hav-
ing. for the careful hostess knows the
"snatcher's" ways, and the article
given as second prize is often far hand
somer than the one labeled first"

PUTTING AWAY DRESSES.

In putting away dresses Of thin ma
terial they should never be hung or
folded lengthwise- II placed in wide
drawer or trunk fold across the skirt.
This has a tendency to counteract the
lengthwise wear Of a skirt when IN
use.
In putting away dresses for any
length of time they should be thor
oughly brushed and the seams of the
bodice sponged lightly with ammonia
water on the Inside and thoroughly
dried ibefore folding.
All bits of criHnpled lace and soilcd
ribbon should be taken off and sepa-
rately freshened.

creasing and cracking between the ribs
If. while the parasol is held partly
opened in the hands. the upper part
inside the ribs is stuffed fun cf crum-

should be suspended from "a hook ia

TOWN AND VICINITY.
Murder.

Sunday morning, September 18th,
Herbert Fuller, - years old, of Phila.
delphia, Pa, was shot i'll that city by a
negro named Julius Spence, and died
later in the Pennsylvania Hospital
The following account is taken from a
Philadelphia paper:
According to witnesses, Fuller was walk.
ing peaceaby along the street when he was
acked by the negro, who shot him through
the lungs.
In an ante mOrtcm statement Fuller told
the police that as he attempted to pass a
crowd of colored men at the corner they
spread out and one of them said
1T is time that you white men took to the
centre of the road
This was followed by shot. When Full
er returned to consciousness he was in the
hospital
Special officer Levy declared that Spence
had been boasting of what he would do and
had repeatedly declared his intention to
shoot the first white man who accoSted him.
Fuller was a nephew of ex-Mayor
James H. Fuller, of this place, and a
young man of fine character and excel
lent prospects.
