FOR THE SUMMER MANTEL.

This is a decoration that anyone can
have at a trifling expense with post
cards.
For the foundation a board is re-
quired of strips of wood taken from
grocers' boxes and nailed close together
will answer the purpose admirably.
This board should be the Length OF
the m%antelpiece and about twenty
three inches wide.
The postcards. used should be all col
ored, or all black and white; etchings
would look best.
The board is framed with strips;
three laths are required.
The postcards are fastened in posi-
ton with tiny tacks, at the top and
bottom of the board. Small strips of
laths are tackled or glued between each
postcard. At the top of the over mantel
a long lath is tackled along the bottom
edge of the row of postcards.
A shelf four inches wide is attached
TO the lower part of the board along
the top of the bottom row of post
cards. The shelf is supported on two
brackets.
The entire woodwork can be enam-
eled. These postcard screens and man
tells are becoming very much OF a fad
and are entertaining as we'll as pretty
for q decoration.

graceful and are worn with one end

PAYS $3.50 IN ENGLAND
FOR MARRIAGE LICENSE.

LONDON. June 27.-Unwilling to
postpone his wedding, Kensel M. Rog-
ers Winslow, of Racine. Wis, a cousin
of Mrs. Ogden Mills Reid, of New York,
hurried across the Atlantic after a L.
000-mile rush to the seacoast to marry
Elizabeth Chumasere Miller, of Helena,
Mont, at Dover last Friday.
The ceremony was performed by the
Rev. b, Talbot Rogers, brother of Mrs.
Reid, and required a special license
costing $3.50 to obviate the necessity of
fifteen days residence in England.
Winslow is a son of DIR. and Mrs.
Rush Winslow, of Appleton, Wis. He
and Miss Miller had planned their we'd
ding for June 23 several months ago.
But Miss Miller's health failed and she
went to Baden Baden. She expected
to be able to return I; have the we'd
ding in Racine on the date set. but
circumstances prevented. Mr.. and Mrs.
Winslow will remain in Europe for a
while before returning to make their
home in Racine.

SUFFRAGETTE LUNcHROOM.

Well, the ~suffragette vegetablettes
have come to town. Mrs. Belmont's
farmerettes at Hempsted tied them up
into nice little punches with their w
fair hands and yards of yellow ribbon.
n shipped them by an early train
to Miss Mary Donnelly, at the Politi-
cal Equality Association lunchroon at
140 East 34th street.
The four hundred and fifty hungry
ones who lunched there the other day
had all the suffrage radishes and let
tuce and parsley they could eat, also
shortcake made with strawberries
raised at Brockholst and picked by
the farmerettes.
Everybody who visited the head
quarters was presented with a suffrage
radish with Votes for Women
stamped around its middle in yellow
letters.
The radishes were good advertise-
ments for the efficacy of suffrage
smiles, for they we're perfectly alder
manic in size. Some of them measured
ten inches around. and If they were a
trifie pithy inside the s~uffragettes who
ate them didn't mind. hey sail
suffrage vegetables ought TO have
plenty of pith to match suffrage argu-
ments.

with the consignment vas also
