Robert Hoe collection, a carved cyl1n-

" competition among amateurs
brought So 800 at auction, in the rooms

was bought by western capitalist In
terested in fine arts, who recorded
his purchase under the name of Thorn

This extraordinary specimen OF skill
full and artistic craftsmanship is one
of the most beautiful jade objects OF
its class. The cylinder ~ seven
inches in height and seven and one
half inches in diameter. 1t Is carved
in undercut relief in the motif known
as 1.-The orchid pavilion" which re-
veals a mountainous landscape with
figures. The late owner had 1t fitted

Mictinns of Deadly skill.

It is not easy for any one but a
hunter to see just how man can be
shot down for a deer. Yet in only
six years no less than 16 men have
lost their lives in this way in the
great Adirondack wilderness. After
having been five, two, and i've, re-
spectively, in the three preceding
years, the mortality from this cause
dropped down to nothing in 1908.
In 1909 there was only one death.
but in 1910, despite all the words OF
warning, the figure rose to three. This
is almost half of the deaths from other
hunting casualties all over New YORK
state during the same period. The
latter were 35 all told, the 1910 rec
ord being Is, or five more than the
top figure of 1907.
The remarkable thing about the
comparison of these total records,
however, is the fact that the high
Adirondack losses were in the face
Of skill. while those in the other class
are to be attributed largely to the
carelessness of inexperienced hunt
ers who were out after rabbits and
birds.

TO EXTERMINTE RED SPIDER
Plain UnaduIterated Water Is Only
Thing Little Pant-Enemy breads
Spray Every Day.

In overheated, dry-atmosphered
living rooms, the red spider is sure to
do more or less damage to the plants
unless something is done to keep it in
check. None of the emulsions, tobac.
co extracts or other applications ad.
yised for use in fighting plant enc
mics are of any use here.
The best thing to use-the only
thing that will be of benefits water
just plain, undoctored water.
What the red spider breads more
than anything else is moisture. He
will not stay where the air is kept
moist II he can get away, and if he
cannot get away, he is unable to do
much harm.
Here is where the sprayer comes
into play. See that your plants are
thoroughly wet, all over, at least
three times week-once a day is
better.
Be sure that the moisture gets to
the under side of the leaves, where
the spider likes to hide away. Most
persons are not aware of the presence
of this tiny but terribly destructive
creature, because 1t is unnoticeable
unless one takes special pains to seek
him out.
But If they find that leaves on their
plants are turning yellow and falling
off, they will have good reason to sus'
pect that the red spider is at the bot
tom of the trouble.

COMBINE SILK AND LINEN
Feature of the Season That Has an
Attractiveness Really
Unusual.

In the shops there are displayed
suits and dresses of linen that are de-
cidedlv attractive in design and orna-
mentation. There are some features
that are dominant on many or the
distinctive models. One means OF
trimming is new and effective. 1t is
silk or satins
It is used as girdles on many little
one-piece frocks. Slots, buttonholed
and of considerable width, are worked
at the sides of the front. Through
these the silk sash can be passed and
conveniently removed before wash
ing.
Manv of these silk girdles have
ends that hang halfway down the
skirt. These may be at the side, the
front or the back.
Rosettes of silk are used on many
linen frocks. They are easily re-
moved and give very easy trimming
for a little dress of plain-colored
linen.
Buttons Of black silk or satin are
effective little ways Of trimming
dress of linen. 1t is matter of
few minutes to remove them or to
replace them. They are undeniably
worth the trouble.
The extra sailor collars are quite
evident on imported frocks of linen,
and can be incorporated with the
blouse if the color of the suit or dress
be of the unsoilable kind.
These square collars are Of foulard,
of black silk or satin, and Of colored
silk deeper in shade than the mate
rial of which the dress is made.
They are frequently trimmed with
narrow collars of fine linen or lace
upon them and softening the line at
the neck.
Cuffs of silk or satin are the nat
ural continuation of the collar idea.
They. too, need not be alone in their
glory.
AS for the simple little bows and
sailor knots of silk, they are used
with much effect and convincing
beauty on many linen frocks and
suits.

The Coming Skirts.

They will show more fullness that
is a decided departure from the
shackled line of the winter. But this
fullness will be scanty enough to pre-.
serve a straight line.
An effort to hold to the slender eff
feet at the hips is made by all ma
kers. So If fullness be introduced it
is shirred and tucked in many cases
to give yoke effect. On suits there
is suggestion of a circular yoke that
extends quite below the hip line.
On dressy afternoon frocks and on
nearly all types of evening gowns a
decided return to the graceful train is
evident. 1t is certainly less con-
venient, but more becoming; and
womankind, after short freedom due
to the Little Girl" modes, is ready to
adopt the beauty minus comfort.
