FOR WEAR In THE C0iFFURE
Numerous Ornaments in Order lf
Woman Would Follow the Ex-
tremes of Fashion.

If she would be very we'll equipped
there are many little accessories for
her tresses that the modes demand:
II, for instance, the hair is worn low,
there are certain heavy hairpins OF
plain real or imitation shell to hold
the knot in place. And more elabo-
rate are the mounted hairpins, with
imitation jewels-these, Of course, for
dress and evening wear.
Combs and barrettes Of real she'll
beautifully marked-are chosen by the
woman who wears her hair high and
keeps her tresses smooth and firm In
the back by their use.
Very effective are the ornaments
studded and inset with rhinestones.
Some of the designs are most artistic
and the stones beautifully set. To
give the effect Of those exquisite orna-
ments which are set in platinum, the
French jewelry designers have used
the rhinestones in silvery metal
that has the rhinestone finish, and
wonderfully good looking the combi-
nation is. One may have this in bar

pins, and mounted combs.

LEFT FOR c0NQUEROR OF ALL
Space Above Flag at Half Mast 10
Supposed TO Be Reserved for
Banner of Angel of Death.

Perhaps you have noticed that
whenever a prominent person dies,
especially If he is connected with the
government, the flags on public build
ings are hoisted only part of the way
up. This is called "half-mast." Did
you ever stop to think what connec-
tion there could be between a flag
chat was not properly hoisted and the
death of a great man?
Ever since flags were used in war
it has been the custom to have the flag
of the superior or conquering nation
above that of the inferior or vanquish-
ed. When an army found itself hope
lessly beaten it hauled it's flag down
far enough for the flag Of the victors
to be placed above 1t on the same
pole. This was a token. not only Of
submission, but of respect.
In those days, when famous sol.
dier died, flags were lowered out Of
respect to his memory. The custom
long ago passed from purely military
usage to public life of all kinds, the
flag flying at half-mast being sign
that the dead man was worthy OF
universal respect The space left
above 1t is for the flag of the great
conqueror of all-the angel Of death

Miser's Revenge

An old miser, who died in Wales

over a trifle several years ago, and
he thereupon changed nearly all his

note he tore into two, burning one por

his relatives came to examine his eft

FOOD EN- CASSEROLE.

OF course, all cooking in casserole
lis done in the oven. If one uses gas,
lit may seem an expensive method OF
lcooking, but when one realizes Low
much can be done with the oven, the
work may be planned to save every
bit Of heat. There are on the market
small ovens which can be used on the
little simmer burner at very slight
Iexpense. The oven will save its price

There are small stone dishes which
lmay be used to serve hot bits of any
vegetable or meat and make most ap-
petizing dishes. For example, if one
has a tablespoonful or two of sweet
threads, mushrooms or fish of any kind,
they may be put into small ramekin,
white sauce added, and covered with
Icrumbs and Drowned when needed.
tFor a family of five, one may have
something different in each dish, and
each member Of the family may be
suited as to choice, provided they
don't all want the same thing.
Tongue which has been corned, II
cooked for several hours, with season
hngs, a teaspoonful Of Worcester
shire sauce, few drops Of tabasco,
half a cup of seeded raisins and a
pint of beef stock, will be delicious

moved to platter and the sauce
poured around it.
Steak may be Drowned and cooked
with onions, tomato or mushrooms,
Igiving variety in serving it. We are
prone to tire of certain ways Of serv-
ing dishes, though we think it Is the
food itself of which we are tired.

and free sugar which we're determined
from the outside"
Senator Poindexter said Of his vote I:
II voted for the senate tariff bill
because 1t is as whole better bill
than the Payne -Aldrioh law, now in
force. Furthermore IL contains an
income tax which we have been try
ing to get for twenty years.
Some Of its rates are too low--but
it's general average on manufacturers
is high enough. Its classification is
far from scientific but not more SO
than the existing law"
AS 1t passed the senate, the tariff
bill represents an average reduction of
more than four per cent from the
rates Of the original bill that passed
the house and nearly % per cent from
the rates of existing laws.
