To Save the TabIecIoths.

As laundry work is a serious prob lem in our home. l recently made a dozen doilies from red and white checked toweling. These doilies are 12 inches square, and were simply hemmed on the sewing machine. They are placed under the children's plates, under the meat platter, and under dishes containing fruit or vegetables that are liable to spill while being served. These doilies, or mats. are easily washed, and my table doilies keep clean three times as long as formerly. They can also be used at luncheon on bare table.-Suburban Life.

DoNTS FOR DREssMAKERS
Some Valuable Little Hints for the Women Who Make Their Own
 Garments at Home.

Don't open lingerie waist in front unless you wish to say adieu to all style.
 Don't use deep navy blue this win ter when bright shade and royal blue are the newer tones.t
 Don't save on any Things or notions in dressmaking.
 Don't buy cheap black goods when a iecent quality repays you twofold
 Don't try to use stitching as a trim ming unless you know your machine and have straight eye''
 Don't make a walking skirt to "dip" at the back; let it hang evenly all around.
 Don't begin your home dressmaking with tailored suit, this requires ex- periencs.
 With paper patterns of exclusive make you will find the extra shoulder and underarm seam allowance suffi- cient for any ordinary alterations; if not you need a larger pattern. Pin your pattern together and try it on if you do not cut one of cheap muslin and make it up, thus save slashing in- to dress goods until you are sure that you are right.
 Shape the bottom edge of skirt exactly with the pattern or it will nev- CT hang evenly. Use snap fastenings at the placket opening and anywhere else you can. Keep your clothes push ed down about the waistline, the short ening of which indicates the flight of youth.

INSPIRATIONS IN THE HOME
How One Girl Utilized Glass Beads on a Hat and Another ContriVed
 Black Lace Yoke.

Did you think that they were con- fined to the poet and the artist, my dear reader? An, no; they tighten the work of the laborer in the most practical and utilitarian fields. and sometimes they come to the aid of our sister Of the needle as we'll as that of our sister of the brush or pencil.
 l know girl, for nlEtance, who bought remnant of silver braid wherewith to trim a black velvet hat In tricorn shape. The braid edged the brim nicely and provided the first | three rows of a fetching cabochon. Then 1t gave out. In despair she cast about her-and To! there before her stood-or, rather lay-a cheap string of amethyst glass beads, a bazaar purchase or a child's gift, or some round and round, they finished off that cabochon in the neatest manner possible, their stiffness adding to the dashing effect
 Another girl needed black lace yoke for a velvet gown. Real lace was out of the questionable velvet itself had been gift from her fairy godmother. What should she do? Just in the nick of time another kind angel appeared with a black lace veil Black lace veils were our friends abomina- tion, but black lace yokes were right in her line. And the transformation was easily made.
 Thus it goes. Chamois tasss the place of the more expensive suede kid; cotton-back satin is an excellent substitution for ribbon trimmings; sealing wax, hand painting. stencil ing, all have their inspirational uses. Never despair of doing just what you please in the realm of dress. If your mind is quick and clever one you can surmount any difficulty. Only you must wait for-or coax into being "a full-fedged inspiration.

six Horse-Power Horse.

A correspondent of French News. paper, desiring to ascertain the actual strength of a powerful horse, visited several of the stables that use the finest horses in Paris. and in those of a good trucking company he SC .ected an eight-year-old Percheron which for three years had been en- gagged continually in hauling cut stone for building purposes. This horse seemed to him the most powerful in Paris. He tested the animal and 1t was able to haul a block of stone bout 20 feet cube, weighing 1874 tons. placed upon a car that weighed 415 tons, making a total weight of 17% tons. This is a task to which six horses would ordinarily be put.

LYNCH MADE QUEER

maj jor organization has set Sherwood
Magee down for the balance of the
year together with fining him the
5000 limit prescribed by the bylaws Of
the league. Without discussing for
a moment the justice of President
Lynch's punishment, without condon-
ing for a moment the objectionable
offense of which Magee was guilty,
i. does seem ss If, under the cimcum-
stances, the punishment were trifle
harsh. This is in view Of Lynch g
ruling in the case of Umpire Klem's
assault on Roger Bresnahan. Here q
judicial parsonage, the arbiter of the
game, who should have been possess
sed Of coolness, temperament befitting
his position, and gentlemanly conduct
at all events, deliberately punched a
manager in the jaw for some real or
fancied grievance. A slight fine was
imposed in his case. Magee. on the
other hand, strikes Finnersn. It was
a blot and disgrace to the game, that
is admitted. But in view of the pun
ishment handed out to an umpire, is
not Magee's punishment trifie too
stiff, especially as regards his sus-
pension? Suspension until Septem-

They figure by such a means the
shield will cut off all possible wind
from the runner and at the same time
help to pull the athlete along in such
a fashion that will make him do such
time.
On the face of the proposed sugges-
tion it looks good. There is no rea-
son in the world why such a plan
should not prove good one. AS a
maater of fact the wind has proved
one of the greatest handicaps to a
sprinter when attempting to lower a
record. Any short distance runner,
who has competed in race with the
wind against him and with the wind
in his back, can easily appreciate
this fact.
Then again, the shield already has
played an important part in the 9TH
er branches of sport. In the horse
game both the trotting and the pac-
ing champions have reduced many
records by the use Of the shield. In
the bicycling game Mile-a-M Minute
Murphy some years ago accomplished
his great record performance behind
a wind shield attachment to fast
train. The shield in the athletic
game has never been thoroughly tried
out, but If the westerners should give
it a try in the proposed sprint race,
there is no question about Craig be-
ing able to reduce the present record
figures.

CR0THERs WANTED

New York, July 2e.-Johnny Nc
Graw, pilot Of the Giants, is trying his
hardest to secure the services of
Crowthers, the shortstop Of Manager
Cassasent's Winsted (Conn.) team.
Only the reply Of Crowthers as to
whether or not he will sign q contract
is keeping him from joining the low
landers at once. He was recommend
ed by Billy Lush, who is doing some
scouting for the little Napoleon.
In Winsted the other day Growth
ers, who is employed by an insurance
company in Hartford, advised his
manager Of McGraw's offer. He in
formed Manager Cassasent, however,
that he would not sign a Giant con-
tract unless the inducements were
big, as he has fine position in Hart
ford, and also picks up some money
on the side by playing with Winsted
during spare time.
Crowthers, who formerly played
with Collinsville,- has all the ear
marks of a second Hans Wagner both
in form and actions, and Lush, who
has been watching his work this sea-
son, predicts that he will sooner or
later land in the big league.

THE UNIVERSITY WIRELESS
Exhibit of Latest Message Sending
Device Is Feature of University
Baafh This Year

The wireless outfits in the Univer-
sity of North Dakota exhibit in the
Liberal Arts building is attracting a
great deal of attention. The appara-
tus was set up by DIR. A. H. Taylor,
professor of physics at the univer-
sity. and r. A. Heising, student,
and the station consists of a complete
receiving apparatus in practical op-
Grafton and small sending apparatus
for demonstration. Out at the uni
versity. a mile and a half awaya, is
the sending station that is working
all the time. On top of Science hall
may be seen a pole to which a 100
foot aerial is hung. The sending is
done by machine operating a large
induction coil and a regular message
is sent in Morse characters. At the
fair grounds this message is plainly
heard. any operator can read it.
Up to date methods are used in this
wireless set. The system and also
the method OF the transmission of
these signals through space will be
explained to anyone desiring the in
formation. To anyone wishing any
kind OF information about wireless
telegraphy or its action the operator
is glad to explain it and is kept busy
a good share of tho time.
