SELLS Her BLOOD

Story of Mothers Heroislp
Comes Out When Hus-

Deserted Wife In Destitute Circunf-

Operation In Order to Procure
Food for Her Little Ones.

| Baltimore, Md.-President-el Will
son the other day signed requisition
papers for Baltimore detective to
arrest Charles Leroy Brown, a glass
| blower, at Vineland, N. J., charged
with deserving his wife and children
| in this city, and he became deeply in
terested in the case when the de-
| tective told him how, deserted by her
husband, with no support for herself
and seVen-year-old boy twins and she
ill in a hospital, the mother had given
a quantity Of her blood to obtain
| money for the twins support. The
story of the mothers sacrifice became
public when Detective Thomas Quirk
returned from Vineland with Brown,
who had been indicted by the grand
| jury for deserving his family.
According to the detective, Brown
disappeared in March and until three
months ago the mother worked to
provide for herself and children. Then
| she had to go to Johns Hopkins hos
pltal to become the mother of another.
During her illness her small savings
dwindled until she had but few pen
MES left, and recently, while she was
a patient, she sold a quantity of her
blood for s25 to pay the board of her
other children, who were being looked
after by friends
Learning one day that patient in
another institution was in a serious
condition and that the oh1y hope of
the surgeons was in transfusing some
healthy blood into his body, Mrs.
Brown offered to sell her blood. The
surgeons made an examination found
her blood healthy and a vein in her
left wrist was opened and the blood
taken. Mrs. Brown stood the opera
ton well in few weeks was able
to leave the institution
In the meanwhile the case of the
mother and children was brought to
the attention of the states attorneys
Office and the husband was located in
Vineland The authorities there re-
fused to arrest the man, it is said, and

.FRAGILITY OUT OF FASHION
Girls of Today Seek Health and Take
the Right Way to Secure
the Blessing.

It is no longer fashionable with the
fair sex to feign delicacy, nor are the
girls Of the coming generation actual
ed by an insane desire to appear fra
gile and genteel at the expense of
health The scores Of huxorn. bright
eyed young ladies one will meet in
any Of our public thoroughfares any
afternoon is aIanle evidence Of the
truth Of the assertion, says Wonan's
Life. No longer do the fair ones seem
wan and pale to look upon, nor is their
style Of locomotfon suggestive Of eff
fort; but, on the contrary, nearly all
seem strong and 1.-THE Of limb, and
with cheeks suffused with the rudy
glow of health. Doctors generally
agree that there Is far less sickness
among the sex than had formerly been
the case, and this could be attributed
solely to the glorious practice young
ladies have OF late acquired Of testing
their capabilities as pedestrians, and
in engaging in other forms of light
physical exercise. 1t is to be hoped
that the good work will go on.

HOMEMADE FLoWER-BoxEs.

Here are the designs for three forms
Df fioWer-boxes that are simple to
hlake-a corner box for the porch rail
Ing, box for the window sill, and a
eex to stand upon the porch floor or
upon the lawn. From the three you
can select the one you like best.
For a porch railing, a corner box
such as shown in Fig. / will hold
enough flowers to make of it a verita-
BILE flower bed, and with vines planted
along the front and allowed to hang
down over the box the effect VIII be
very pretty. Fig. shows the COM
plated box. The idea Of cutting off
the rear corner of the box and at
aaehfng the short piece G is so that
tbs sides CT The 1besz EslI extend
On to the tops of the ratings for sup
port. OF course this will not be neces-
sary in case the corner post does not
extend higher than the railing. The
ends OF the side pieces A and B must
be trimmed off to the right angle to
ut against the front and back boards
g and d, but the ends of B and G
6fiay be left square until after they
have been nailed 10 A and B (see G,
Fig. 81, when it will be an easy mat
ter to saw them off flush with the
sides OF A and B. Nail a narrow strip
to A and B, at the lower edge, for
.cleats to support the bottom boards
Gig. 81; then cut and fit the bottom
boards In place. Bore number or
half-inch holes through the bottom for
drains.
The only difference between the
construction of the window-box in Fig.
A and that of an ordinary grocery box
is that the bottom Of the floWer-box is
fitted between the sides and ends, In
stead of nailed to the bottom edges

wb a the hat is trimmed to match.
With a world of ostrich fancy feath-
ers plumes and bands Of all descrip-

trimming suited to almost any kind of
hat.
These ostrich neckruffs are made
of long-fbred stock. generally, and set
close up about the neck. A hat to

shape which sets down on the head,
merges at some points into the ruff
and it is this that makes the effect
SO good when the hat trimming is like

Creme Paner Gifts

For those who cannot AFFORD to ex-
pend very much money on materials,
there Is nothing more satisfactory
for fancy work than the making OF
objects Of braided crepe paper. This
material costs but few cents, unless
ribbons and silk or satin are used In
combination with the paper. The
work is of the utmost simplicity, al
though the finished product appears
to be an imposing piece OF work. One
does not realize Just how easy 1t is
