Then get out" shouted his uncle,
and pushed the young fellow bodily
out OF the room.
Walter Hampton felt that he had
not played altogether a dignified part
In submitting to this arrangement.
But he knew that his uncles influence
over his hasty, kindly father was
great; he knew, too, that once she had
withstood the test. as she could not
but do, Linda would win his uncle as
she had won him. To doubt her was
impossible. Consequently It was with
out serious misgivings that he went
of on his fishing trip, and though the
time dragged YEARLY, he returned to
town eager to hear his fancee's
praises from his uncle's lips
His first surprise was when the door
Of the spacious apartment was opened
by a mazda new maid in cap and
apron, who looked at him inquiringly,
as though he had no business there.

The maid hesitated. Yes, SIR" she

man. Who Is she?'

Walter pushed past her, ran along
the hall, and broke into the reception

rose from a chalr-Linda!

The elder man had come softly up
and placed a hand on his shoulder.
George Chaplin was smiling; his ne
phew was purple with fury. He flung
upon his uncle, striking out
wildly with his fists, and they fought
all over the room, till finally the other
got him down, pressed his face into
the sofa pillows, twisted his arms,
and sat on him.
Linda, my dear, come here" he
said, Shall | tell this young idiot
the truth or will you?"

PROPER CARE OF EMBROIDERY
Should Be Cleaned at Home and
Thereby Have Its Usefulness
and Beauty Prolonged.

Every woman who embroiders and
spends hours doing the finest kind of
needle-work wants to protect it from
the ravages of time as long as posi-
BILE.
If given to the ordinary laundress,
embroidered frocks, blouses and arti-
cLes for the household soon lose their
beauty. If sent to professional clean
er's, they are constant drain on the
allowance. The most delicately en-
broidered article can be successfully
cleaned at home if the following sug-
gestions are observed:
All colored embroidery should be
soaked in salt water for ten minutes
before washing. This will preserve the
colors.
Make a suds from warm water and
a milk white soap. Rinse through
several clear waters and hang up IN
til partially dry. Roll up for half an
hour and iron on a turkish towel with
a moderately hot iron.
Never hang up fine embroidery, but
pin on folded towels until dry enough
to iron.
If round or oval pieces show signs
of gathering up after washing, per-
haps it is due to the workers tight
stitches. To remedy this, stitch and
pin out on folded towels while wet.
Do not spare pins or trouble to have
the piece perfectly straight and fiat.
Scalloped edges demand careful
treatment. Never pull them in shape,
but lightly smooth each scallop in
place and pin.
Never wiring an embroidered arti-
Gle, but press the superduous water
out between towels.

LAKE WEIR

Lake Weir, Aug. 27.-Mrs. H W.
Henry left Tuesday morning for Hot
Springs, Va, where she will be pres
ent at a reunion of her brothers and
sisters from many states, one sister
coming from China, where she has
been a missionary for twenty-five
years, and has not visited the states
for eight years. Mrs. Henry viii re-
turn about Sept. 25th. with her lit
tie daughter. who has spent the sum
mer with relatives in Virginia and
Maryland
Mr.. \. W. Harrison is spending
three weeks in Augusta and other
points in Georgia.
Col. R. F. Rogers of Ocala will
preach at the Oklawaha school house
Sunday morning, at 1890 o'clock.
Col. Rogers is a great favorite here
and his coming is always looked for
ward to with a great deal of pleas
ure.
The hard road is being rapidly
pushed forward toward OklaWaha
and Lake Weir station. The pro-
gressive residents of the lake are
bitterly disappointed that the road
did not come on the beach but will
bide their time in the near future
when we have women commissioners
and no fence laws.
Mrs. Robert Blain and family have
gone to Cedar Keys to visit the FAM
lily of Mr.. Albert Comstock, who for
merly lived on his place here near
Oklawaha station.
Mr.. w. S. Perry of Ocala and fam
lily are occupying one of DR.. Henry's
cottages for the summer months.
The thimble club was pleasantly
entertained at the home of Miss
Mary Conner the past week.
Dr. T. X. Slaughter and a party
of friends motored over from Levon
last Sunday to spend the day with
Mrs. Slaughter and children.

MUST HAVE LINEN CARDCASE
Fashions Decree Makes 1t Imperative
to Include This Among Neces-
sary Accessories.

The daintily embroidered cardcase
of linen belongs among the necessary
accessories, and the woman who does
not already possess one should i'm
mediately begin to embroider the
linen.
The needlework shops sell a variety
of designs stamped on coarse or fine
linen, according to the work you de-
sire to place on it.
The thin lingerie frock demands a
cardcase of handkerchief linen, en-
broidered with a very fine design;
those done in eyelet embroidery are
the most effective. If you do the tiny
flowers and foliage in solid work, pad
the petals first with darning cotton
and cover this with fine mercerized
cotton. Scallop the edges, using the
buttonhole stitch, and whipstitch the
sides together.
With the one-piece frock or tailored
costume should be carried a cardcase
of heavy linen. The design is not so
fine on these and can be done with
white or colors.
For instance, if you choose a card
case of Manufactured linen, the de-
sign can be effectively done in white,
brown or dark blue. There are few
designs to be worked with the Bulgar-
ian colors, and these are extremely
effective when done in the brilliant
hues on background Of tan linen.

SAVE THE ALFALFA LEAVES.
Sixty Per Cent. of the Feeding Value
of Alfalfa in the LeaVes-Hay
Should be Cut at Right Time
and Cured so as to Preserve
the Leaves.

Of the entire alfalfa plant, accord
ing to Kansas bulletin 1876, the stalk
comprises so per cent. and the leaf
40 per cent, whereas the quantity Of
the protein in the stalk is only 40 per
cent, while the protein in the leaf is
60 per cent. Moreover only 20 per
cent. of the fat is to be found in the
stalk, while 80 per cent. is in the leaf.
1t is, therefore, very important that
alfalfa be harvested at the proper
time, and carefully handled so that
all the leaves will be saved.
When possible to do so it is best to
cut alfalfa late in the afternoon or
evening. Dew or rain on the freshly
cut alfalfa will not injure it. Where a
tedder is used, it should be started in
the morning as soon as most of the
dew is off and before there is any dan
ger of knocking off the leaves. It is
often advisable to go over it more
than once.
Alfalfa hay is harvested and cured
in much the same way as clover, ex-

MATERIALS FOR THE TOURIST
Crepe de Chine Deservedly Popular
China Silk and UnIined Net and
Lace Waists Useful.

Crepe de chimes are popular and
practical, as they clean easily. The
familiar double frill is still used, as
are also narrow frills which outline
the front pleats, or follow the side
fastening. Narrow pleatings to match
the friIls are used as finish for fat
collars and turnback cuffs.
They have the button through col
lar and cuffs, with long shoulder lines.
Crepe de chine is sometimes used in
combination with net, lace or printed
silk
China silk waists also have the frill
finish, but the designs are a little
more on the tailored style. Striped
wash silks are popular with travellers.
Some of these silks have a white
ground work with broad or narrow
stripes in purple, gray, blue, rose, yell
low or brown. Then, again. the
groundwork shows a soft shade of
gray. blue, rose or tan with white
stripe. These silks are made in the
mannish shirt styles.
Unlined net and lace waists are
very practical, as they are easily
Numbered, thus doing away with the
necessity Of dry cleaning.

PLEASE THE CHILDREN
ENJOYABLE PARTIES THAT MAY
BE EASILY ARRANGED.
Much Liked Affair Has Toys as Its
Chief Motif-Brown Paper and
Fairy Entertainments Never
Grow Stale,

Many hostesses are harassed by the
thought of having to provide some
thing quite new"-something which,
without being excessively elaborate
and provide a pleasant surprise for
both young and old
For children and grown-ups a toy
party is very enjoyable affair. Each
guest is asked to bring with them a
toy. 1t may be homemade or bought,
but anyway the cost must not exceed
sum fixed by the hostess.
The toys are all arranged on a
table and leach guest votes for the
most original and the most unoriginal
barring always their own contribu-
ton. The donors of the two respec-
tive toys receiving most votes each
gets prize, and the whole of the toys
are sent to a hospital or some poor
children in the name of the whole
party.
A brown paper party is also good
fun. The guests all wear costumes
contrived from brown paper. With
a little skill some wonderfully good
dresses can be arranged. Brer rab-
bit, Eskimo, red Indian, prairie girl,
cowboy-there are a few of the most
obvious suggestions.
For children a fairy party is very
attractive. The room should be clear
ed of ordinary furniture and trans
formed into a fairy palace. Some
painted cardboard, tree branches, tin
sci, flowers and twinkling lights skill
fully arranged will effect a most real
istic transformation.
The invitations should be sent out
in the names of the fairies, and the
little guests should come as fairies of
every cline, and-if liked-characters
of well known fairy-tales
In similar way it is possible to give
a witch party in a magic cave or a
Dutch party in Dutch interior, while
forethought will suggest other ideas
equally attractive and easy to carry
through successfully.
When presents are given at a chill
dren's party the following novel idea
will be found an attractive method of
distribution: Cut a cake into slices
and on the outside of each slice fast
en- present with the name of the
intended recipient on little flag stuck
in the top of each piece. Place the
slices in position again and tie the
cake around with a broad ribbon to
keep it in shape.
