SOCIETY PLYING THE NEEDLE
Most Feminine of Implements Comes
into Fashion Again Chiefly
as crest Cure"

Those who are quick to observe
changes in the moods and tastes Of
society will tell you." says writer
in the Lady's Pretoria, that the doing
OF fine needlework is growing into
great favor with even the most FASH
1Onable of our m0ndaines, whose own
fingers are producing work that is
fully equal to the best specimens of
their much lauded and perhaps over
Landed grandmothers.
"A lady who has had the honor to
be the instructress of royalty in this
craft says that hundreds come to her
for counsel where tens came but q
few years ago. The cause of this
reversion to the pursuits of a more
placid age is not difficult to discover.
Such an occupation becomes virtually
a rest cure in this epoch of rush
and motor cars, and that is why many
of those who have been the most in
defat1gable seekers after novelty and
excitement are now among the most
Industrious Penelopes of society.
"The rhythmic movement that &C.
companies the plying of the needle is
peculiarly soothing to the nerves, and
produces much the same effect as the
prayers of the Orientals. with their
swaying to and fro and their an.
parently vain repetitions. It is a mis-
take to suppose that needle work Is
injurious to the eyesight. Old needle
women rarely wear glasses"

HAD FUN WITH HIS CRITICS
Joined in Abuse That Was Being
Heaped Upon Him.

On one occasion Prof. Willis Luther
Moore, head of the United States
weather bureau, travelled from Wash.
ington to New York in smoking
compartment with three men who,
when he encountered them, were
busily engaged in roasting the very
bureau of which Moore was the chief.
why, that fellow Moore" said one
of the strangers, fought to be run out
of the government service. He al
ways predicts. but he's generally
wrong"
Hes dub, like all the rest of
those fellows" said the second, ap-
parently indicating with a sweep of
his hand the whole government serv-
ice
Look what he did last Inauguration
day." chimed in the third. 'Said It
would be clear, and we had enough
snow to tie up every railroad system
In the country"
Moore, who has a sense of humor,
got into the roasting bee at this mo.
ment
"Rotten!" he sal demphatically. I'D
like to meet that fellow and tell him
what 1 really think of him."
But he's got the farmers bluffed,"
conceded the second speaker.
And so the abuse was heaped on
the professor for more than a hun
dred miles, Moore himself helping in
the TRADE. Before it was over. the
weather bureau and all connected
with it had been put in the pan and
roasted to rich dark brown.
When the party left the train,
Moore called taxicab, and so did tho
other three. Just as the professor
stepped into his vehicle and left his
companions standing on the sidewalk,
he handed them his card, on which
was engraved:

which is attracting much attention.
1t is to all appearance an ordinary
bed, but the weight of the body upon

this operates a music box which gives
forth soothing melodies. The lula
bies which it plays are supposed to
induce sleep BY means of a dial at
the head of the bed the person who
occupies it fixes an alarm for the next
morning. This produces when the
hour arrives discordant sounds, to
which the person in the bed must pay

College Community House.

Tenney Hall, a community house, has

object of this house is to help the
poorer students by reducing their liv-
ing expenses to the least possible
amount. The students are to be
housed and fed after the principles
Of socialistic community. All ex-
penses will be shared by the occu-
pants of the hall, who will contribute
just enough per capita to run the
establishment. Each girl or group of
girls IN turn will be called on to do
the homework and cooking so that the
cost OF servants may be avoided. The
entire system will be under the super.
vision of the president of the college.

About HaqqiS.

According to Cakes and Ale," by
Edward Spencer, the Scotsman bor-
roWed his idea of haggis from the
Romans But their haggis differed
from tSe Scotch variety, it's compost
ton being a boiled pigs stomach
filled with fry and brains. raw eggs
and pineapples beaten to a pulp and
seasoned with "liquamen." This sauce
was obtained from the intestines, gills
and blood of fishes, great and small,
stirred together with salt, and exposed
in an open vat to the sun until the
compound became putrid. When
putrefaction had done it's work wine
and spices were added; it was strained
and poured over the Apician haggis,
the whole forming a dainty dish-if
you don't reflect on the making.

Perseverance Wins,

AS Browning puts it, many a man
who aims at million misses the
unit. We get in this world what we
60 after, and the sooner we start the
better. The brave old DR.. Johnson
said there were a great many doubts
that do not deserve to be cleared. Let
us make up our minds that tc keep
at work with all ones might is a bet
ter thing than to contemplate critical
~ the unremitting industry of some
one else. And when we have chosen
our work, let us not change it lightly
for an occupation which at first blush
seems more congenlal: whatever we
make up our minds to do, let us in
fexibly and posolutely persevere in
the doing.

Milk Delivery In South Africa.

Until quite recently the datrymen
Of Salisbury, South Africa, used the
native in preference to the usual cart
for delivering milk. The native wears
a canvas bottleholder, capable of car.
rying Is bottles with the minimum
risk of breakage. This mode of milk
carrying was really forced upon the
dairymen by their losses in the early
days from horse sickness, and from
the inability of the raw native to
handle horses and mules, much less
drive the cart itself without capsizing.
The last year, however, has seen the
passing away OF this custom, milk now
being delivered in prosaic but busi-
nesslike fashion by carts and by boys
on bicycles. In the latter case the
canvas bottle carriers are still worm

This Gluttonous Aoe,

Attention should be called to tho
very abnormal fact that there never
before existed in all natural history,
outside of a fattening pen and the
Strassburger goose. the opportunity
for such luxurious consumption Of
food with SO little movement as ex-
lists for many here to-day. IT'S high
noon of greedy, gluttonous golden
age! Until 80 years ago, before up
to.date Office work, few Anglo-Saxon
men were ever in the house except to
eat or sleep, and most were on their
feet nearly all the time when awake.

MARRIAGES in France.

It Is an interesting and noteworthy
fact that since the PRONUNCIATION of the
law OF June, 1907, the effect of which
is to simplify the formalities which
are the necessary preliminaries to
marriage in France, there have been
more weddings in France than at any
period since the beginning Of the last
century, with the exception of the
years 1913 and 1872, in the former of
which men contracted unions to es-
cape being sent of to fight, while in
the latter many weddings took place
which had been delayed by the war
with Germany.
