Stricken Blind on Roof,

Stricken suddenly blind while en-
ployed on the roof of a house, at No.
1915 Hammock avenue, Atlantic City,
Ernest Talliaferro, a painter, pitched
forward into the street thirty feet
and his companions expected to find
him fatally injured. When the ambu-
lance arrived, however, he was easily
revived, and was found to have es-
capped serious injury. Refusing all as
sistance after he had been given med
ical aid, Talliaferro painfully made
his way to his home, a short distance
away. A recurrence of eye trouble
caused the accident.

Ice Men Risk New Laws.

The ice men raised the price from
25 to 80 cents a hundred. Some
dealers are advancing the price for
domestic trade from 40 to so cents a
hundred. The larger dealers, how
ever, have been receiving so cents a
hundred for some time, and they will
not raise the price to domestic trade
at this time. 1t is fear that consum-
ers will be paying 80 cents a hun
dred before the end of the summer.
There is talk of an investigation, as
there is an agreement among the
dealers, and if this is so the Seven
Sisters" laws would be violated.

Although Perth Amboy boasts of

Wife Accuses Husband.

TNOOIJNO TFNI0ITFN'
Without a home and declaring that
her husband never provided one for
her, is the answer made in the Court
of Chancery by Mrs. Mamie B. John
son, of Camden, to the suit of her
husband, Elwood Francis Johnson,
for divorce. The wife denies that she
ever deserted the man. They were
married February 10, 1907, and she
was forced to get out and make a
home for herself the same month, she
says. Since that time, she says, her
husband only visited her three times
at the home of her sister, Mrs. Kali
tenthaler, in Philadelphia.

COOLER CLOTHES FOR BABY
One Of the Problems That the Warmer
Weather Puts Forward to the
Young Mother.

When the warm summer months
confront us the young mother begins
to think about cool clothes for baby.
and not the least important OF the ar
ticles required for the wardrobe is
the loose coat to be worn over the
long dress. for baby dare not be
exposed to draughts at any time
The needlework shops are showing
an attractive variety of long coats
made of crepe de chine or albatross.
These can be copied with little diff.
ficulty.
Purchase kmono pattern for
baby in long clothes and stamp the
border with scallops Down the fronts
and across the sleeves stamp a dainty
flower design; either forget-me.nots,
rose buds or violets are suitable
White silk of fine quality should be
used to embroider the flowers.
First pad the petals, using white
darning cotton for the purpose. Make
the padding stitches the length of the
petals and cover them with silk, max.
ing the stitches at right angles with
the padding. Buttonhole the scallops
with heavier twisted silk, padding
them first with the darning cotton.
Tie the fronts together with white
ribbon an inch In width.
II desired, these dainty coats can be
lined with n light quantity of china
silk, but they are more frequently
unlined for summer use.
II you haven't n little one OF your
own. make a dainty coat for tiny
friend or relative. 1t is fascinating
work, as the soft materials are easy
to work with.
