~ The proper way TO- steam velvet,
according to a milliner, Is to take q
hot iron, turn it up on its face, 'ay
over it a damp cloth, and over this
damp cloth pull the velvet on the
straight grain. The cloth must not
be wet, only damp, and the velvet
must be pressed over it straight, not
on the bias. Do not brush the velvet.
When the cloth gets hot, take 1t away
and let the velvet rest on the iron
until the velvet is dry. II the velvet
has q satin. back, retain the. cloth.
In either case. be sure to get the
velvet thoroughly dry or It will have
an odor.
1t is not wise for the amateur to
undertake to curl feathers. It is. a
process that requires special training,
and If undertaken by one who does
not understand it, is pretty apt to
spoil the feather. When done by
those who understand the work, the
feathers are steamed, q dull-bladed
knife. specially shaped, is used. and
the fibre has to be held in a certain
way. 1t is decidedly a technical pro.
cess, and the one who goes at it sim
ply with knife or pair of scissors
is liable to have only a ruined plume
for her pains. -.
Whether to wear a veil or not is
usually matter Of personal taste.
Some women never wear a veil. 9TH
ers never 60 without one. II economy
must be considered, it is an expense
that can be omitted, without much
loss to ones appearance. II, how
ever, q veil is worn, 1t il best to get
good quality. It lasts as long az
several cheap ones, and so in the end
is no more expensive. and it always
looks better.
A plain mesh veil is better tasta
than conspicuous patterns, and II 4
dotted veil is chosen, chenille dota do
not come OF.

In order that she may have more
money for her best hat, many wo-
man makes her second-best hat her
self and uses for it the flowers and
ribbons left from a previous season.
If hats would be carefully put! away
from dust at the end of a season, the
flowers and ribbon, even. the straw
braid itself, can often, with little
freshening, be used the following
season.
If last seasons hat has been made
of straw braid. it is quite possible
that this braid can be used again. As
it is now, the hat is probably out of
style as to shape, or else is faded.
But if the straw braid otherwise Is
in good condition, 1t may be used
quite satisfactorily to make the run
about hat. A certain woman known
for her smart hats always does this.
She says she wears her hats, two
seasons. So she does practically.
She doesn't wear them as they were
the previous season. But she has
them made over. And SO she always
has hats of good material and in
good style at low cost.
If woman is not experienced in
making hats, she should go first to
the shops and by examining the trim
med hats, find a style that. is becom-

BEING A "GOOD FELLOW" :"

Every now and then we hear of
some one dying in bitter poverty af-
ter having spent a fortune in " being
a good fellow" OF such a one it is
commonly said while he is alive and
spending that he has heart like an
OK and hand always deep in
his pocket" he is spoken of-fre-
quently within his own hearing-as a
prince among men" " or lone of
natures noblemen."
1t seems passing strange, says the
New York Herald, that a man with
the power to attract to himself SO
many warm friends should not have
any willing to pay his funeral expen-
ses. Yet such is often the case. 1t
is a fact frequently commented on by
philosophers that these peerages of
cafe creation die with the fortunes
that produced them. A real prince
among men" or natures noble
man loses his title when his money
ceases to burn holes in his pocket,
after which he should set aside lit
tie money for his own obsequies.
But those who argue from the for
lorn and friendless passing of one of
these good fellows that there are
no real friends to be had in this
world are wrong. Every one can
make friends, and staunch ones, too,
by the practice of unselfishness, but
not by wasting money on the worth
less in the vain hope of being consid-
cred good fellow" which is mere
ly another name for a complete fool.
1t is not he who gives to every one
who asks" but he who seeks out
those who are too proud to ask and
relieves their necessities, who awak-
ems genuine gratitude and attaches
to himself the sort of friends that
are worth having. Such a man, how
ever, is seldom termed " a good fell
low."

THE AMATEUR
PHOTOGRAPHER

We hope our readers have been
helped by the series of articles on
Color Photography" of which the
following is the closing chapter:
Color photography has proved
some things about the properties of
light which were never known be-
fore except in theory. For instance,
it has been able to demonstrate that
there are colors so refined that the
human eye cannot perceive them,
just as there are sounds of such
high pitch that the ear is insensible
to them. In the range of visible
colors of the spectrum, of the rain
bow, the extreme colors are red and
violet. But beyond these, invisible
to the human eye, are other colors,
known to scientists as ultraviolet
and infra-red. That these invisible
rays of light existed was proved in
theory by chemists, but it remained
for color photography to demon
strate them usually. Photographs
have been made with these ultra
light rays, the use of a lens exclud-
ing all but the infra-red rays being
especially successful. In photo
graphs made with this light, the
lights and shadows of ordinary sun
light as they appear to the eye are
exactly reversed and the sun appears
to cast deep shadow while the
shade of a tree or wall appears as
a luminous light"

A Rig BABY.

NEWARK n. j., August 15.-The
doctor dashed up to the home OF
Samuel and Adele Gutin, with the
high speed on his automobile, and
ran into the house.
Oh, a splendid boy baby!" he
exclaimed. A big baby! I'll get
out my scales"
When baby Leo was placed on
the scales, the hand went to the end
with a click and stopped.
Funny" said the doctor.
"Those scales register IA pounds,
and who ever heard of a baby
weighing more than that?"
"I'll get my scales" said Grandpa
Gutin.
Ten minutes later he hurried back
from his meat store, three blocks
away, with the store scales.
Twenty pounds!" exclaimed the
doctor, after Baby Leo had been
placed on the scales. That's i'm
possible. Babies never weigh twen-
ty pounds at birth.
The groceryman's scales said 20
pounds too; so did two other scales,
brought in from nearby stores.
At last the doctor came out and
said to the neighbors:
"That baby is the champion
heavyweight baby of the United
States. He weighs 20 pounds and
he is a perfect baby. The mother
can get up and go around the house
tomorrow if she wants to-"
The doctor thought that Baby Leo
Gutin would be talked about in doc
tor books for centuries.
Adele Gutin, mother of the giant
baby is 81 years old; the husband
is the same age, and this is their
first child.
"He'll be a great big man." says
the mother proudly. 1 only hope
he will be as good as he is big"
But Baby Gutin is not the only
newcomer who has puzzled the doc
tors. James A. Cody of Mt. Airy,
Ga, at 27 months, is the biggest
baby in the world. He weighs 122
pounds and is still growing. James
eats as much as his father and
mother together.

cause he hindered the way of the
American citizen. The yellow man
was shut out of this Republic because
he is an alien and an inferior. The
red man was owner of the land-the
yellow man highly civilized and as
similable-but they hindered both
sections and are gone. But the
black man, clothed with every privi-
lege of government is pinned to the
soil, and my people commended to
make good at any hazard, and at
any cost, his full and equal heirship
OF American privilege and prosper
ity. It matters not that every race
has been routed or excluded. 1t
matters not that wherever the whites
and blacks have touched, in any era
or any cline, there has been irrecon-
cilable violence. 1t matters not that
no two races, however similar, have
ever lived anywhere, at any time,
on the same soil with equal rights,
in peace. In spite of these things,
we are commanded to make good
this change of American policy which
has not, perhaps, changed American
prejudice-to make certain here
what has elsewhere been impossible
between whites and blacks-and to
reverse, under the very worst condi-
tions, the universal verdict of racial
history.
We are driven to this superhu-
man task with an impatience that
brooks no delay, rigor that accepts
no excuse, and a suspicion that dis
courage frankness and sincerity.

OUR BOYS
EDITED BY
ONE OF tn EN-
HOW A BOY BECOMES A SCOUT.

HOW A BOY BECOMES A SCOUT.
After the boys form the patrol
their work has just begun. They
become Tenderfeet first and must
remain in that class one month before
they are eligible to take the examin-
alton for the second class scout.
This examination includes first aid,
lighting of fires, cooking and the
points of the compass. The test for
the first class is still more rigorous.
The boy must show fairness in vari-
Gus lines of work and study. He
must be systematic in cooking, must
know how to read a manual correct
ly, and show that he can cut down
trees, Judge distances, can swim, at
least, fifty yards.
After having taken the test of the
first class scout, he is stimulated to
further activity by the hope of get
ting various merit badges. There
are some sixty different activities
touching the phases of boyhood life,
for which merit badges are offered.
The boy must pass examinations bt-
fore he can get such a badge. If he
wins 21 such badges he is entitled to
the Eagle Scout Badge, which is an
emblem of honor.
The making of the Boy Scout re-
quires the expenditure of much
money by the national organization,
necessitates the writing of many let
ters, and the thoughtful attention of
men trained in boys work. Once,
however, a boy has become a scout,
and is really influenced by the acti-
vities, he is on fair way to becom-
ing useful, upright citizen.
The leaders of the movement feel
that they have accomplished enough
If they can give the boy training
which will enable him to be a good
citizen and to make him resourceful.
They ask for nothing more. If this
is done, there is no doubt, but the
Boy Scout Movement will be per-
manent organization in this country.
