feadw passed since the Fan Of 1911
Col Roosevelt has said just one thing

conjoined
That was when he told his journal.
istic friend Mr. Smith OF Pittsburgh.
that he could imagine no greater ca
lamity 10 the country than his own
entry into the presidential contest as
a candidate.
The thing which he so deprecated
Eas occurred He is violently, yiTu-
lently and yiciously seeking nomina-
zion to a third term and the strife he
has stirred ap. and disreputable meth.
ods he has sanctioned and the incen-
diary doctrines he has promulgated,
and the racial and class haireds 10

DAINTY TABLE FAvORS
SUGGESTIONS FOR TEAS TO
FORTHCOMING BRIDES.
Family Taste and Ingenuity Shown In
knickknacks of Uncommon
Clevesness-Pure White
for Novelties.

The teas given to forthcoming
brides are graced by the most charm
ing favors. The best of the trifes are
bought at the high-class confection-
er's, where they are to be found IN
more novel and elegant form than
elsewhere, but smart florists also show
some very pretty things for this pur-
pose. as we'll as most of the large
department stores. Here and there,
too. one sees tea table embellished
with homemade knickknackS OF un'
common cleverness, some of these inn
itating she shop articles, and some
inspired by the family's own taste and
ingenuity.
AS the brides newest bouquet is to
be in pyramid form, little corsage
knots are made in this shape of arti-
fetal flowers Various tiny posies are
mixed together, wee pink buds, or
red ones, or yellow ones, forget-me'
nots in several shades of blue, pam
sizes In all colors. The most deli.
cate green is used with these, fragile
bits of asparagus fern and other
feathery tufts and small leaves. When
the little bouquet is made up in the
pointed shape, it is inclosed in horn
Of lace-edged paper and the handle
tinfoiled All of the flowers used are
very cheap just now, and for the pa
per holders, when the pretty things
are made at home, many girls buy
the packages Of round lace-edged
paper used upon cake and bonbon
dishes and sold at ten cent stores.
II there are to be men guests at the
function boutonnieres for them are
made up in the same manner The
rounds of paper need to be cut the
required size and the edges pasted
together. Such corsage knots and bou-
tonnieres are permissible for any
smart tea, dinner or luncheon.
The novelties strictly for bridal use
are always in pure white. There are
tiny dolls dressed as brides, wedding
trunks, slippers, little satin bags con.
tanning rice or confetti, wedding bells,
wee automobiles holding flowers or
candy, etc. Occasionally groom in
black get-up, with the traditional white
boutonniere, is shown in this snowy
gathering, and one such little gentle
man adds very realistic note to the
decorations Of the table. Painted fig
ures on cardboard bedeck place cards,
the brides, bridesmaids and black
coated men all cut out and held up
by a little rest at the back of the
card The cards are very easy to make
if anybody in the family has gift for
water-color painting, and when they
are printed they are cheap enough.

A WATERLOO DISPATCH.

There has just been published
Blucher's dispatch which gave Ber-
lin the first news of the victory of Wa
terloo. 1t was addressed to the gov
ernor, and said:
Il inform your excellency that in
conjunction with the English army
under Field Marshal the Duke of
Wellington, yesterday gained the
most complete victory over Napoleon
Bonaparte that could possibly be
won.
THE battle was fought in the neigh
borhood of some isolated buildings on
the road from here to Brussels bear
ing the name La Belle Alliance" and
better name can hardly be given to
this important day. The French army
Is in complete dissolution, and an ex-
traordinary number Of guns have been
captured.
Time does not at this moment per-
nit me to send further details to your
excellency; l reserve them for a fu.
ture occasion, and beg you duly tc
communicate this joyful news to the
good Berliners.
(Signed) "BLUCHER."

HINTS ON CANNING GREENS
Method Which If Followed Carefully
Will Insure Success
Every Time.

Many things used for green's may be
canned by the following method: Pick
over carefully and wash the leaves
mixture Of kinds is desirable; cook in
boiling sailed water as for the table
until nearly done; do not have much
water, but cook in closed kettles to
make the steam do the work. Then
pack closely in jars and pour over
them boiling vinegar to fill every air
space, then seal tightly as any other
canning. Pack the green's closely in
the jar, and when pouring in the boil.
ing vinegar, run a knife blade around
the edge in order to open up the
spaces for the vinegar. Wrap each
jar In brown paper, or put into paper
bags, and keep as other canned fruits.
Spinach, mustard, chard, beet and 9TH
er greens are put up in this way

TYPEWRITER VS.. COAL HEAVIER.

The girl who is operating a type
writer doesn't appear to be doing very
heavy physical labor. as compared
with the brawny individual In the
stokehold OF an Atlantic liner who 10
shoveling coal into a hungry furnace.
but this is one OF the many instances
In which superficial appearances are
receptive, as a comparison or the
force expended by the two will show
The stoker may be credited with
handling one ton of coal per hour or
eight tons per day, plus the weight OF
his shovel. Adding the shovel to his
1850 pounds of coal, he expends
about 10000 pounds of energy. For
each key struck on the typewriter
there is an expenditure OF something
over three ounces OF energy, or, say,
one pound to the average word. A
fair operator will average 1900 words
an hour, or in eight hours $4,000
words-12.000 pounds OF energy. To
throw over the carriage for each new
line requires on an average three
pounds Of force Twelve thousand
words will make 1000 lines, so there
are 1900 pounds of energy to be add
ed to the $4,000, making $4,000 pounds
Of energy expended-which compares
pretty well with the stoker's 10000,
all things considered. A really fast
operator would push the expenditure
of energy in to $4,000 pounds or more.

in the Illustration. which is OF green
and black Scotch check with a plain
facing Of the green. The coat is
slightly double-breasted and fastened
to the neck, where 1t Is finished with
a military collar. When this Is thrown
back, the lining forms contrasting
collar and revers. but this part OF the
coat is capable of a different arrange

small view of the model, which en-
ploys a separate goods for the collar

loose sort approved for the style, the
lining forming the cuffs, and the pock-
cts are of the patch sort, which are so
easy for the home dressmaker to put
on
If liked, this model could be used
for the coat Of suit in rough wool,
and 1t would be very handsome and
useful If it were OF black satin out
lined with silk braid or finished with
a putting of the same. The smarter
coat might need to have the sleeves
shortened a little, for wrist-length
sleeves are rarely used for the smarter
wraps. The double-faced woods are
shown in all of the big shops at prices
that vary according to the quality OF
the goods, but as the fabrics are all
wide. very little would be needed for
such a wrap. Ready made the gar
ment would cost from twenty dollars
up to fifty, although there are always
cheap coats in the latest styles, and II
one Is lucky enough to find good ut

coat Is sometimes very satisfactory
The home making Of coat is not
to be advised unless the sewer pos

sides, be much helped if she had the
heavier pressing done by tailor, as
feminine strength is scarcely ade-
quate to the output needed.

TRIBUTE TO THE JUNGLE.

That India still pays its annual trib-
ute OF human life TO the jungle Is
shown by a statement made in a re-
cent issue of the London Times. Dur
Ing the past three years the number
OF deaths from snake bite or the at
tacks OF wild animals has steadily in
creased. Rising waters have driven
the serpents out OF the lowlands up
into the villages, and have diminished
the natural food supply Of the larger
animals.
In 1910 SO persons were killed by
elephants, 25 by hyenas, 100 by bears.
S51 by leopards, SIS by wolves, S53 by
tigers, and 6SS by other animals, in
GLIDING wild pigs. No less than 3D..
AIS died from the bite of poisonous
snakes. The grand total OF mortal
ity is 24,S7S.
During the same year, $4,000 cattle
were also killed by wild beasts and
snakes.
The losses on the part OF inhabit-
ants Of the jungle were nearly but not
quite as great as those of their hui
man enemies and domesticated anil
mails combined. Ninety-one thousand
one hundred and four snakes and over
$4,000 wild beasts of various kinds
were killed.
