who must suffer in that period just as she did.
 That is how the Good Cheer So ciety" sprung to life. When Miss Car ter recovered she returned to New York, then her home. and began to talk her plan for Society of Good Cheer and Comfort to her wealthy and influential friends.
 Humanity is, after all, quickly re sponsive to ideas of help that are prac- tical, and Miss Carter's plan took hold" With an enthusiastic band of her friends to second her efforts. the Good Cheer Society" was organized. and not long after Miss Carter's re turn from Chicago, incorporated -un- der the laws of the State of New York. with Miss Carter as president, Amelia Morrison as vice-president, and Mar garet Ellen Ward as secretary.
 Sixty was to have been the charter membership, but so much did the nlan appeal to those who had heard of if and who had means and time to de- vote to the objects of the association. that this number was extended to 100.
 "Kindliness, companlonsnlp ana sun shine are more to a sick man or wom- an than all the money in the world" Miss Carter said, in explaining the aims of the society. and our members must be women who can give these ont of a heart truly overfiowing. They visit the sick-'the least of these taking flowers or books or something of like nature to brighten their days. and more than this they read and talk to the patients whose names have been given them by the secretary.
 Though the society has been in ex- istence only short while, according to Human Life, 1t has proven so true to a need long unfulfilled that Miss Carter has now left the detail of the work to the other officers. and is en- gagged in organizing branches in Chi cago, Washington, Seattle-her pres ent home-and other large cities.

IT HE influence of Oriental ideas is
 more evident in our millinery styles than for many a year. The dressier turbans for evening wear ap- pear to be pieces of rich fabric draped about the head and fastened with gor- geous looking ornaments of mock jewels. Gold and silver tissue and jeweled bands are used in these.
 For day wear turbans made on larger frames show crowns in hand some fabrics, such as heavy brocades. tapestries and gold or silver tissues. Tinsel nets are draped over silk nets or lace. Nothing is more popular for the brims or -"coronets" than bands of fur. This is, in fact, the furriest of seasons. Fur bands appear about the bottoms of handsome gowns for street or visiting and on the filmiest of fabrics for evening wear. Lace hats with collars of rich fur and hats of all descriptions share with the gowns the smart touch of fur.

our national life during that period
 Personally. Senator Bailey is a man of very genial disposition His most conspicuous personal trait is loyalty to his friends, and he has always been found to be sincere, frank and candid The senator is one who delights in retirement, and seldom if ever is he found frequenting the clubs and hotel Hobbies where his political friends are wont to congregate. He is unconven- tional in many ways and he cares lit tie if at all for even the simpler man. ifestations of social life One of the laudable traits of MT BafIey's charac- ter Is his love of the home and the family. When his colleagues are en- toying the luxuries and pleasures of their various clubs he delights in be- ing at home surrounded by the peace ful influence of his family His fa- vorite hobby is the raising of fine cat tie and blooded horses, and it is one of his ambitions to conduct the best farm in the land for this purpose.
 Among the rank and file of the sen- ate Bailey is probably the most en- thusiastic patriot. The fire of his or atory when speaking on the consolida- tion of Oklahoma and Indian Terri tory, besides eliciting a burst of spon- taneous applause from the galleries, thrilled and astounded his confreres. In his peroration on this occasion he branched of into an impromptu trib- ute to the Lone Star state and his commanding delivery and beautiful language proved beyond question that oratory still thrives in the federal congress and that the heart of true patriotism is still living one

For less expensive millinery the urban of velvet is the most effective that can be chosen. In order to get best results. good quality of plain velvet is selected or one of the "panne" velvets in good colorings. The latter are a little less expensive than good quality in plain velyets.
 Fancy feathers and wings are cho- sen for their decoration.
 It takes about yard and half of velvet to make a turban. Rows of parallel shirrings confine the velvet to the frame. which may be either of wire or of buckram A soft crown should be supported by lining of crinoline.
 Fabric hats are much in evidence. Silks, satins, velvets, brocades, tapes tries, figured ribbons and colors of various descriptions, all are cast in the play for winter millinery. but vel vet holds sway in the star part.

BATHTUBS FOR HOGS
PIGS TO OBSERVE SATURDAY
 NIGHT IN SANITARY WAY.
Experts Urge Kansas Farmers to Pro vide Clean Dip" for Porkers in Place of Old Mud WaIIows-
 Novel Plan Is Favored.

Topeka, Kan.-Kansas farmers are being urged to remove the old mud hog-wallows in their feed lots and pro vide modern, sanitary bathtubs for their hogs.
 The hog likes to take a bath a good deal oftener than most humans, :" says Dr. Schoenleber. lin hot weather he just dotes on bathing. It is not necessary to provide porce lain or enamel-lined bathtub for His Highness the Hog. but the porker will properly appreciate a nice cement bathtub which may be drained and filled again with clean water.
 He will return the favor. too, by putting on more fat and growing faster and eating less than when he has muddy hole in which to wallow A hog-wallow is absolutely necessary for the peace and happiness of the hog. He is so constructed that wal lowing in water is necessary to pre- serve his health and keep him grow ing People do not feel right unless they bathe frequently. and the same applies to the hog
 Give the hog every possible chance to take bath. Build a cement basin in the hog lot Have it drained and then provide it with fresh water There is no need for hot and cold water. In the water put about one part of any of the commercial dips to 100 parts water. This will keep oil germs and parasites from the pigs and forestall many of the common hog diseases which kill thousands of Kan sas hogs every year. If given his choice, the hog will walk into the cement wallow every time. It is just as necessary to keep hogs clean and healthy as it is to give them good feed and to have good breeds to start with"

covery that his reputation as an edi- tor is lost in the gleam of his reputa- tion as a scientist. One of his most celebrated inventions or discoveries is the Crookes tube-a glass tube from which the atmosphere has been ex- hausted and into which have been fit ted platinum wires passing through the glass walls and terminating in metallic plates. The most important use of these tubes is for the produc- tion of X or Roentgen rays
 He was born in London in 1892, studied chemistry, and in 1854 became superintendent of the meteorological department of the Radcliffe Observa. tory, Oxford. A year later he was made professor of chemistry at the Chester Training College. In 1859 he founded the Chemical News, of which he is still the editor Since 1864 he has edited the Quarterly Journal of Science. He has been a fellow of the Royal Society since 1863 and was knighted in 1897, so that the Order of Merit is only an addition to other hon. ors, not the first recognition of his eminence by the powers that be.
 Sir William is an authority of the first rank on sanitary questions, espe- cially the disposal of the sewage of towns. His method of producing ex. treme vacua was a necessary, prelimi- nary to the achievement of electric lighting. His original researches led to the discovery of the metal thallium in 1861. Among his other discoveries have been the sodium amalgamation process for eliminating gold and silver from their ores (1S65), and his new method for the spectroscopic investi- gation of substances-one of the nu- merous and brilliant results of his pro- longed studies of radiant matter" He also devised the radiometer, and the otheoscope, a greatly improved form of the ter-instruments sensi- tive to the impact of the ether waves which cause the phenomenon of light. He is the author of several standard scientific books.
 Unlike many of the great scientists of his day, Sir William has never leaned toward materialism. Indeed, so strong in his conviction of the ex- istence of intelligence independently of, material mechanism and so broad is his spirit of investigation that hel has given countenance to mediumistic tests. This has led the Spiritualists to claim him as belonging to their persuasion, without, however, any public commitment on his part war ranting the claim.
