Worldly Wisdom.

There's nothing quite so busy as an
idle rumor.
Some people borrow trouble and some
buy it outright.
When some men reform they are apt
to overdo the thing.
Better not take things too easy un-
less they belong to you.
You may be able to catch on, but do
you know when to let go?
A porous plaster will stick to a man
who won't stick to his word.
Suspicion continues to snoop around

A FRIENDS ADVICE
Something Worth Listening To.

A young Nebr man was advised by
a friend to eat Grape-Nuts because he
was all run down from a spell of
fever. He tells the story:
Last spring | had an attack of fe-
yer that left me in very weak CON
dition. / had to quit work; had no
appetite, was nervous and discour
aged.
"A friend advised me to eat Grape
Nuts, but / paid no attention to him
and kept getting worse as time went
by.
Il took many kinds of medicine but
none of them seemed to help me. My
system was completely run down, my
blood got out of order from want OF
proper food, and several very large
boils broke out on my neck. was
so weak l could hardly walk.
Zone day mother ordered some
Grape-Nuts and induced me to eat
some. 1 felt better and that night
rested fine. AS continued to use che
food every day, grew stronger stead

Word "chore" Not Slang.

The word "chore,'' generally used
in the plural, is not slang, but an Eng
lish word of highly respectable line
age. In this form it is found only in
America, in England the spelling and
pronunciation being char" though
this Is rarely used except in combina-
ton with woman 'char-woman."
But in some of the provincial dialects,
that of Cornwall, for example, the
word chores" is used precisely as we
use Chores" All these forms come
down to us from the Anglo-Saxon
word "cerr,' or "cerran,'' to turn
over.

IN VELVETEEM AND CORDUROY
Combination That Deserves the Popu-
iarity Which 1t Has Seen Un-
hesitatingiy Accorded.

Not every one can afford frocks OF
silk velvet, so velveteen was manu-
featured as a substitute. 1t is lovely,
and gives practically the same effect
as silk velvet when made up. Vetve-
teen and corduroy are used 10 fashion
many smart trocks for street wear.
t'lain colors are more frequently
usei for the velveteen models. They
are effectively trimmed with ;ur. me-
tallic laces. Persian or tapestry EN-
broidery.
Velveteen does not adapt itself so
successfully to draping as do the
softer velvets. so the skirts are usual
ly plain or with pleated Insects.
The bodices are, jumper effects. with
guimpes of lace or chiffon.
Corduroys in the sott-tinished quail
titles are extensively used
E'rocks and coat suits are develop
ed OF this material and seem 10 find
a ready sale.
The two-tone corduroys in brown
and tan, blue and black and white
are especially favored.
In plain colors.. dark blue, brown,
black and burgundy are the shades
more frequently used

MOONSHlNER'S FINE WORK

The copper worm" of moonshin-

court of Judge John Elmore, United
States commissioner, at Montgomery,
Ala 1t was a splendid piece Of work

thick copper and it did not have a
seam in it.
Alpheus McGoweD. of Coosa county,
who was being tried for -Inoolshin-
ing" told Judge Elmore that he made
the worm When he had beaten
and worked the copper into long
gas pipe shape he filled it with white
sand and crooked both ends. The
tube was then carried to a tree stump
and wound about it until the prsper
shape was obtained. The sand pre-

Pretty Thing Evolved by Clever Girl
In Most Economical and Sim

A novel and most economical way
to make a pretty tea-tray was dis

with her wits and her fingers. She
first purchased for forty cents a large
oval picture frame from a second
hand store, securing a very good bit
OF natural old woodwork. Then with a
bottle of STAIN some sand-paper and a
little yarnish she polished up the wood
to look like new, then screwed on two
brass handles. one at each end, after
wards cutting piece OF pretty Gre
tonne the same size as the glass. and
pasting it smoothly where the picture
would ordinarily go. Covering it with
the boards that belong to the frame,
tackled securely into place, the entire
back then being covered with a piece

sessed OF a most fetching tea-tray
which in the shops would cost from SIS

Neighbors examining the clothing OF
Mrs. Mary Krauss of Sandusky, O.,
for whose burial at the expense of the
county arrangements were being
made, found certificates of deposit
calling for almost $1,000 sewed in the
lining of an old skirt
Mrs. Krauss, eighty-one, dropped
dead on the street For years she had
been living by doing washings and
scrubbing floors.
The examination was instigated by
friend to whom Mrs. Krauss had
confided that she had money enough
for a decent funeral. although how
much and where it was hidden the re
fused to say.
