In the Sewing Room.

The question of stockings is always
Of great importance to women, for upon
them devolves the task Of buying. repair
ing. and overseeing the cleaning Of them.
Some points. then. are worth consider
ing.
Always insist upon fast black 1t
is a matter Of economy and health. Any
stocking that parts with its black at the
first washing you may be sure has been
carelessly dyed. and the running ten
dency endangers health Besides. II you
wish green stockings, why not buy them
at first?
White soles are considered by many to
be more restful than black.
Do not buy stockings too short. The
erring on the other side Is just as bad.
II you have q limited purse. do not
indulge in silk stockings. unless Of very
superior quality. The little ''rivers"
caused by q break in the fabric have .
wonderful ability to rush on to the end
IL not stopped Immediately.
Do not use soap when washing black
thread stockings Make q suds of . tea
cupful Of bran. inclosed in q muslin bag.
stirred into q bowl Of warm water. After
washing the stockings in this prepara-
and dry near ., fire.
II you wish to restore color to black
stockings, boil them in one quart Of
water into which q few chips Of log
wood have been thrown.
When darning stockings do not neglect
10 re-enforce the worn places by contin.
uing the darning stitches quite distance
beyond the hole A stitch in time Is Q
labor saving device In hosiefy.

Adhesive Plaster,


Adhesive plaster, which comes wrapped
in gauze in various widths for surgical
use, Is very serviceable household ar
ticle also. Innumerable are the things,
too stin or too unwieldly for sewing, that
may be mended with it.
The rubber rain coat is one of these,
The same Is true Of umbrellas. An um-
brella is an ugly thing to sew, but a
little plaster, painted black is necessary,
will mend any tear without trouble More
over, the plaster will take the place Of
glue II the umbrella handle becomes loos-
ened. 1t should be wrapped around the
stem with the adhesive side out, and the
hollow handle pressed down hard upon 1t.
For mending hosing. plaster Is invalu-
able and really the only thing that will
do the work well. 1t should be wrapped
tightly around and around the break
until the rose Is again absolutely water
proof.
For mending heavy kid gloves and
gauntlets the plaster again comes into
play; for the lighter kids court plaster in
black or white is better. Simply place
the edges Of the tear together and press
the plaster, cut a little larger than the
hole. upon the inside.
Adhesive plaster is fine, again, for re-
rubber shoes and sandals. The
long Sits that appear between sole and
upper In rubber overshoes disappear by
the application Of strip Of plaster.

The Fashionable Blouse of the Hour

Just as a rest from the overcom-
pelling question of dress come again new
| ideas in blouses. They are beautiful in
| lines and colors and occur in such q va
riety that every woman should be suited.
There's the velvet blouse. for instance.
1t is a natural outcome Of the reign of
velvet. and for women who cannot wear
the filmy chiffon and net blouses this IA
vorite material promises modish comfort
Velvet blouses are made to adhere rath-
er closely to the lines Of the figure. No
fullness Is used at the shoulder line, and
generally the frott and back are plain.
This allows the sleeves and bodice to be
cut in one piece from the ordinary width
Of velvet The sleeves are short, but can
be edged with broad bands Of silk, braid,
or perhaps fur. In nearly every case,
subcuffs Of lace or net lengthen the velvet
form. The yoke and collars are trans
parent.
Now, as to trimming. The velvet blouse
is very fine as q background for q mill
t1ry decoration. Cords. buttons. braid In
colors or in meallic shades are much in
vogue. These are quite simply applied.
the straight lines Of loops on the front
and shoulders being easily made and very
stunning.
A cascade Of inch lace Is Q touch that
Is elegant. especially ON black velvet.
Deep revers Of satin. too, are in order
while Persian and japanese embroidery
enrich q blouse Of velvet In Q wonder
full way.
Ninon de sole, marQuisette chiffon, and
cotton voile are the favorite materials
for other blouses. The lines on which
these are cut are simple. Linimgs OF silk,
lace. or net are inevitable. and frequently
the whole trimming II under the slip-just
one Of the outcfoppingS Of the hidden
beauty Of the hour.
Perhaps white porcelain beads ere the
most effective. They 49, applied on ir-
regular plaques, as bands to outline
yokes. and the very latest u the hand

tional design on the entire surface Of the
blouse.

FADS OF FASHION.

Slippers for evening arc Of attractive
design. Light colored suede with jet
buckles are the newest. Five straps.
each ornamented with a tiny jeweled
buckle, are shown IN all fabrics. Chantil-
ly lace over white satin. Irish crochet
over colored silks. and satin deliberately
embroidered with steel beads are in great
demand.
Bead bags and purses are shown in
great profusion.
The most expensive umbrellas have
tortoise-shell tops.
Dressy waists are made of the new
allover laces and embroidered nets. Well
covered patterns are preferred, and are
made up with just q few touches of
silk nr velvet on yoke girdle or cuffs,
and the stock or Dutch neck showing a
little white or cream lace or fine net
with buttons either silk covered or jew
eled.
Tallored coats reach to the hip.
The short jacket is very popular.
There are many three-piece suits. with
coat and skirt Of velvet, fine serge, or
broadcloth. and bodice, attached to the
skirt. or self-tone chiffon or marquisette
combined with the material of the gown
to unity the whole.
Heavy stitching is the --latest cry" in
gloves.
The use of dark fur edsing is very
effective.
Quite a number Of coat and skirt street
frocks are Of good quality vefveteen-
some bordered with a narrow band Of fur,
others trimmed with silk braids, while
others are devoid of trimming Of any
kind.
The very newest thing in Dutch col
lars is one of net embroidered with col
ored silk and metal thread in an orig
inal design. The collar comes in two
shapes-one of the regular Dutch model
and another with an extension at each
front end like an attached tab.
A noticeable feature of the new models
is the narrow foundation skirt of soft
messaline finished with a plain two-inch
hem.
For the street and travelling frock the
shops are showing limitless variety
in English and Scotch tweeds. serges,
diagonals. cheviots, suitings. and home
spuns. Among the favorites are navy
and gobelin blue. green-in all the soft,
dull shades-gray. with q smoky tinge;
mauve beige, and tobacco and coffee
brown.

There are various ideas afioat among
men as to the cause OF ropy milk. says
Hoard's Dairyman. Farmers in gen
sral think It is due to some condition
IF the COW, Inflammation In the udder
or the like. But scientific investiga-
lions say not so.
The germ that causes ropy milk, b.
actis viscosus, finds its natural habi-
tat in water. II will flourish In ice
cold water, but It grows with difficulty
at blood heat, says Professor Ward,
which proves conclusively that 1t Is
not the result Of disease in the cow.
Starting with the proved fact that the
disease originates In water. here are
some Of the causes as stated by Pro-
lessor Ward In his book. Pure Milk
and the Public HEALTH"
Cows wading in muddy sloughs and
the germs falling from the body Of the
COW into the milk pail; foul stables.
where this trouble exists; the organ
isms are found In the floor dust OF

cooling milk In cans: the corrugated
milk cooler may have a leak whereby
the water is mixed with the milk.
The bad practice Of merely rinsine
the milk utensils at night in cold water
and not scalding them out is another
cause, and a quite frequent one. In
deed. unclean utensils constitute the
most frequent cause for bad milk.

|BACCALAUREATES SERMON
Preached by Rev. w. ]. c. Bond,
Sunday Evening, June IL.

The members of the graduating class
of the Mineral Point high school and
many of their friends assembled at the
P NJ church on last Sunday evening 20
listen to the baccallaureate sermon by
the pastor Rev. w. J. G. Bond. Mr..
Bond dwelt upon the Importance of ac-
quiring a thorough education. HIS
text was from John III, 10. He said
that the question which Jesus asked
Nichodemus is suggestive Of two things,
namely: The tragedy of the partially
educated life; and the real appeal OF
religion to educated men and women.
The speaker said that no one who IS
half educated or half prepared can do
what the world expects of him. There
is he said, deeply rooted in this world
the false notion that the practical man
needs those things only which he can
use for his immediate welfare.
1t is, the speaker said, the unprepar-
edness for the fuller living in this world
wnere intelligence so important and
problems so grave that constitutes life S
modern tragedy.
ITO go through life unacquainted
with ones best self, untutored in the
nobler things, unmindful of the urgent
calls of the peremptory world, what is
such disposition Of ones self but an
error whose cost may involve eternity?
To be content with a smattering of
knowledge when the whole world is
full of truths that invite the mind and
heart; to answer learnings call with a
listless turning Of her books, to try a
short cut to life's demands when only
he who takes the long road can gain
entrance to the kingdom of the life
that lives; to find ones self at the gates
but without the key
