master johnson Asks For Additional
Help.

That the parcel post business is go
ing to make marked increase in the
volume of holiday business in the post
office is evidenced by the big increase
in this line Of the governments busi-
ness at the present time.
During the first fifteen days Of Octo-
Der, which included thirteen working
days. the local postoffice handled a
total of 6,S46 packages, or daily ay-
eraGe of 1865.
More Help Required.
In order to arrange satisfactory SER
vice for patrons during the holiday
rush Postmaster A. G. Johnson has
asked for additional help, and it is ex-
pected that the extra help, if allowed,
will be retained in an effort to increase
the general efficiency of the postoffice.
Postmaster johnson is anxious to add
at least one carrier for the factory dis
tricts, and give an additional delivery
of mail to the factory patrons of the
office.
II is the aim of the new postmaster
and his assistant to make the local
postal service a little better than it
ever has been during any preceding
administration.

BLOUSE CUT IN ONE PIECE
One Of TuIIe Valenciennes Is Made
With Neither Trimming Nor
FuiIness.

The newest cream white blouses are
more plain than ever. The prettiest
are tulle valenciennes, or a kind of
soft point d'esprit with figures like
those in the valenciennes design. One
blouse of this material has not the
slightest trimming or fullness except
In the back, where there is a tiny bit
to cover the opening and make it look
like a narrow plat. The entire thing
Is made in one piece, the sole garnish
being little button studs of black vel
vet in two rows at the throat, both
back and front, and on the wrists.
The neck is cut low and round, with
cording of the lace in three rows.
A noticeable feature of this blouse,
which was designed in house in the
Place Vendome and intended for the
Riviera, is the sleeves made all in one
piece, with no extensions whatever It
is as though the entire thing had been
nodded together. No doubt the styles
for the coming season will adopt ideas
seen in this blouse. We have arrived
at period when cuts and finishes are
at their cresendo Of plainness. Moth
ing further is possible because effects
could not possibly be any more rigid
or simple.

Beaded bags refuse to be ousted.
The smartest are of Jet oblongs.
pierced and applied to the net alter
nately with beads of silver or gold, or.
sat solidly together and bordered with
silver, gold or white disks. Equally
alluring are the bags made of steel
mingling with colored beads and
those which show the same curious
shaded effects that distinguish shot
silks Some of these latter are made
in the fashionable pannier shape first
brought out in walrus or seal bags,
and all contain a change purse and
card case of satin matching the lining
Of the chief receptacle.

HA5AKkUk, THE NEGLECTED.
Short Chapter Of the Bible That Is Little Read.


Short Chapter Of the Bible That Is Little Read.
One of the disappointed statesmen of the coun-
try on election night found soace in reading
Habakkuk, eighth of the minor prophets, as found
In the old testament We doubt IL many persons
even such as are fairly familiar with the Bible
frequently read this little work of three chapters
says the Philadelphia Inquirer. 1t IL seldom one
hears texts from this book preached upon
AS fact, nothing Is known whatever of HaDak-
kuk unless he be identified with one of the same
name who is mentioned in the apocryphal works
as having ministered to Daniel In the lions den.
The name is not Hebrew. but may have been as.
sumed for literary purposes, was not uncom.
mon in those days.
The gist of the first two chapters of the book
Is the grief of the prophet over the approaching
Chaldeans. The last chapter is a poem with
musical directions, which some persons think was
written by another of the same name or title.
Perhaps not many persons know that In this
book Is found the familiar quotation: But the
Lord Is In his holy temple; let all the earth keep
silence before him"

BLACK SATIN HAT RETAINED
Though White Seems to Be Coming
Favorite Color, Yet This Style
Is Always Smart.

While colors are to be rampant this
year and spread themselves over the
world like gorgeous sunset or a rain
bow, yet the tiny black satin hat is to
be very smart indeed. The woman
who is in doubt what to choose when
she is bewildered by the sulphur, pur-
pie, bronze and red shades offered
would do well to rapidly retreat to-
ward conservatism and choose a hat
OF black satin that has little trimming
and owes its beauty to its shape.
Such hats are not what they used
to be. They are distinctly of this sea-
son. The shape is rather stiff, with
low crown and a two-inch brim which
rolls slightly back at the edges; over.
this the satin is stretched and finished
at the seams with a cord or a piping.
There are no folds or bows or full
crown bands; all is as smooth and de-
mlure as mans silk hat. The trim
ming is placed fiat on the brim and is
made up of any kind OF feather that
has spirals and looks struggling and
careless.
The best known choice is feather
called numidie and which is more or
less expensive and very fashionable.
The peacock feathers are on this or
der and that is one of the reasons
why they have returned to favor.
Straw and wheat are also used, and
whatever does not lie fiat on the brim
stands insolently erect in the middle
OF the front or back.
