FINE OLD MEMORIAL TOWER
On Town Bridge at Milford, Conn.,, 1t Records the Colonial History
 of the Place.

The town bridge at Milford, Conn. is a unique memorial of the colonial history of the place. Milford was first settled by colonists from the old Eng. fish town of the same name, and the bridge, which was built to celebrate the town birthday, is an exact replica of an ancient one in the Milford over the sea Every stone in the round tower is memorial to some historic Milfordte. Over the massive door is the scrlptured head of an Indian, SUD- posed to be Ansantawae, the chief who sold the town site to the col onists in 1639. The knocker on the tower door once belonged to the old house where George Whitfield preached in 1770 The doorstep is from the mansion of Robert Treat. governor of the colony of Connectt cut for thirty years. One stone is dedi- cated to the memory of Jonathan Law, governor from 1742 to 1750
 This stone also once formed part of the governors threshold. Another large slab is inscribed with a tribute to the Wepawany Indians. On the bridge corner by the tower the town perpetuates in granite it's gratitude to Captain Thomas Tibbals (obit. 17O3)
 in consideration of his helpfulness to show to first corners the place and the land records" Another tablet records the name of Peter Prudden, first pas. tor back in 1850. Several big blocks of masonry are inscribed with tho names of the early settlers. and there is one stone bearing Milford's good opinion of itself in these words: God sisted a whole nation that he might send choice grain to the wilderness"

Gift For Baby.

Babies always need bibs, and it is easy to make these They may be plain ones or fancy, finished with em- broidery face or feather-stitching but an important point to remember when making a bib is to fit pad of absor- bent cotton under the outer-covering. else the moisture from the little one's mouth will soak through and ruin the dainty frock underneath.
 pillow-slip is also a nice gift for baby. It may be made of fine linen. embroidered on each end with dain- ty spray of blossoms. This should cover a small down pillow.
 Another idea is bassinette or car. riage cover of French flannel, deco rated with garlands of daisies or rose buds worked in natural colored floss. To make the cover still more elabo- rate. crochet lace medallions may be inserted in the center of each garland

POWDER FOR THE BRUNETTE
Detail That Must Be Kept in Mind or Unsatisfactory Results Are
 Assured.

If your complexion is a brunette tint do not make the mistake of ap- plying white powder. It is plainly visible against the darker skin, giving fragrant made up look to the en- tire face. Powder is obtainable in several flesh and ivory shades
 First apply good cold cream, then dust on the powder, rubbing it well in with a soft cloth or piece of ab- sorbent cotton. Be careful to have the powder evenly distributed, mak- ing certain it extends behind the ears to the back of the neck and well down on the throat. Brush the eyebrows and eye,ashes to remove all traces of powder and see that none remains in the edges of the hair.

Raisinu Water With Air,

As all schoolboys know, a suction pump can theoretically elevate water only about thirty-three and one-third feet, a column of water of t'at height balancing the atmospheric pressure. A means has, however, been found of causing suction pump to raise water to a height of even sixty feet. The invention was made by workman in the French marine. Monsieur Eys
 serie, the chief engineer of the ma rine, remarked that one particular pump showed extraordinary qualities in drawing water from ships holds. Inquiry developed the fact, says Har- per's Weekly, that a workman had thought of the plan of introducing air into the water at the point where the suction was applied, thus producing an emulsion of air and water which, because of it's diminisher density, was capable of being elevated to consider ably greater heights .han pure water.

Taffeta is perhaps more used than any other kind of silk for this sea sons little coat. though the soft satins stubbornly retain their popularity here as elsewhere in fashions realm Many of the costumes sent over by the best Parisian designers show fan. ciful little coats associated with one. piece frocks. In the more conservative models the coat is in the same tone as the frock, though it is likely to be in contrasting material; but perhaps more frequently the coat contrasts in color with the frock, though it's color may find an echo in some trimming note in the frock

 All these hand ornaments, together with the several bracelets it is now modish to wear at intervals up the arm, render gloves difficult to wear from the practical point of view, while there is always the rooted objection in human beings of hiding their light and jewels under a bushel.
