T. VERIFYING is trimmed with fur
IL and already furriers are making
up in what are called millinery furs"
limitations Of martin, ermine, skunk,
leopard, moleskin, mink and sealskin.
These furs are used in bands and are
used for trimming muffs, turbaps,
neckpieces and dresses. They border
gowns at the hem, and sleeves ct the
wrist. Occasionally a high-necked
blouse shows a narrow band of fur
hugging the throat.
But it is in millinery and muffs
(Which are made of velvet or other
fabrics) that fur bands appear as an
indispensable part of the composition.
Round, close-fitting turbans, Oriental
turbans, small hats, few of the larg
er ones that are beginning to emerge
from their eclipse, are all taking TO
themselves the luxury and suggestion
of warmth and comfort which is lent
them by the fur band.
Millinery furs are called by the
names OF the furs they initiate, as
"sealskin," fox" martin" mole"
leopard" "ermine." 1t is more than
likely that Molly Cottontail provides
many OF the skins which are trans
formed by furriers into almost any
thing they wish to initiate. The op-
possum, the skunk, the muskrat, the
coyote and others have and help out
in providing furs for trimming be-
cause there is a tremendous and in
creasing demand for them. The skins
of these people of the wild are so dis
guised by the dyeings and markings
and piecings and clippings of fur
riers that their masquerading is ac-
cepted easily. No qualifying 'imita-
tion" prefixes their borrowed names.
They are used in the handsomest of
millinery and garments, and they
make it possible for "the many" as
we'll as "the few" to indulge in good
looking furs.
The hats on which fur bands and
collars are used are small and close
fitting as a rule. Mostly velvet tur-
bans, although plush and satin figure
in the making Of a good number of
models. The combination of fur and
velvet, or fur and satin, is more effec-
tive than that OF fur and plush, in
millinery. When long-haired furs are
used they are cut in narrow bands,

are invariably this season cut either
narrow or wide.
In passing, it may be mentioned
that furs must not be cut with scis-
sors. The home milliner or dress
maker may cut them satisfactorily by
marking a line with tailor's chalk on
the skin side OF the pelt and cutting
along this line with a razor blade. In
sewing seams two edges are held to-
gether and overcast. Furriers use a
triangular needle, and IL is far easier
to sew skins with than the round
needle. All three edges are cutting
edges.

the muffs and hats are made to
match, while the neckpieces are odd

is only a fancy not an established
fashion. The vogue of plain skirts
with plush Jackets to match in color
does away with the need of a neck

and muff to match, trimmed with fur
like that on the collar is delightfully."-
chic and also delightfully."- comfortable.
One can face any degree of cold with
them.
The materials used for the muffs
and turbans are many, velvets,
pushes, brocaded silks, brocaded
crepes, wide heavy brocaded ribbons,
satins ~and chiffon all contribute TO
the making up of these smart acces-
sories.
Muffs are fat and soft. Lace IS
used for their trimming, and a touch
Of lace on the turban corresponds

when furs are much in fashion (they
are never out) metallic laces have
reappeared and are sparingly used as

Some of the muffs and turbans

by professionals. There are many
small items which If overlooked spell

Fear of the Truth.

The argument of certain propagan-
dists who have worked several Maine
newspapers against the anti-tubercu-
losis movement, seems to be that of
the moral coward who is always
afraid of the truth. TIE silly claim
that discussion of symptoms and ef-
fects of tuberculosis by fixing the
minds of the masses upon the terrors
of the disease is likely to spread and
foster it, might with equal force be ap-
piled to city sanitation. If calling at
tention to filthy spots and urging those
responsible to clean them up, is likely
to increase the filth because none dares
touch it, then the devil has us in his
power. The poor flaccid gray matter
that is always discovering bug bears in
the truth. should undergo especial

Coal at Small Point.

During recent storms a large amount
of coal, some of the Jumps weighing
200 or 300 pounds, has been washed up
out of the sea and thrown upon the
broad beaches of Small Point and
Popham. This latest treasure trove in
coal has been collected by Phippsburg
residents for winter supplies. The coal
resembles the high priced Camel coal
in appearance and burns in a similar
easy way. When picked up the Jumps
are highly polished and smooth
through the action of the sand and
waves. The large amount sent ashore
on the beaches, this year, has renewed
interest in the matter. A company
was formed by the late James w. KEEL
lev of Portland. about Is years ago
and on shore lodges were drilled with
diamond drills to great depth but no
coal mine was found. 1t is, however,
believed that a coal deposit is there
and that these Jumps are not from
some cargo wrecked off Small Point
years ago. Had there been ship
wreck of a coal vessel, during the last
$50 years, it would have been handed
down in local history and moreover IN
all these years such cargo would
have been all washed ashore.
Scientists claim the formation OF the
shore warrants the belief in the pres
ence of coal.
More than IS years ago Small
Point blacksmith used to gather these
Jumps from the beach.

Treasurer Simpsons Climb.

State Treasurer Joseph w. Simpson,
one evening, this week, over good
cigar among a group of friends, was
telling of his visit to a copper mine In
Utah in which he is interested. He
and others of his party had gone down
in the bucket to depth of 400 feet, had
examined the mine on that level and
started to return by the bucket route.
when, on reaching the foot of the
shaft, discovered to their discontinue
that there had been a cave-in, putting
the bucket machinery out of commits
sion.
The only way up was by the ladder
on the sides of the shaft and the men
began, one after the other, the perilous
climb.
Mr.. Simpson is well nourished gen.
tleman and his weight is slightly more
than when he was a slender youth. As
he climbed round after round of the
ladders, it appeared to him that he
was taking on flesh. When half way to
the top he seemed to weigh ton!
Covered with perspiration, with
nerves a-frazzle and completely played
out, Names genial treasurer finally
reached the surface of the earth and
was yanked over the edge by strong
hands and lay for a while at the
mines mouth to recover. He was i'll
two or three days from his exertions.
And Hon. Joseph Simpson has been

"The Hioh Cost of Living"

An Augusta gentleman hands in the
zine:
Some reasons why it costs lot of
money to live:
In the last fiscal year the gentlemen
drinkers of the United States bought
and consumed 143,3oo,ooo gallons of
whisky and brandy, and 64,5oo,ooo bar
reIs of beer.
During the same length of time, the
nervous, energetic smokers of the
country burned up 7,7o7, 100000 cigars
and 1907, 100000 cigarettes.
What was left over in the way of
money went for beefsteak, clothing,
rent, and other Injuries.
Corroborative testimony is offered
by Walt Mason, in the Chicago Daily
News, in a manner which We hope our
friend will appreciate, as follows:
IF there were no picked people in
this country of the free, what a fine
outstanding country these United
States would be! Half the jails might
be abolished and upon the poorhouse
door there would be q sign announc-
ing: Nothing doing any more!, And
the cops might safely slumber all night
long upon their beats and there would
be no homeless pilgrims finding lodg
ings in the streets, and but few would
ever perish on the creaking gallows
tree, if there We're no picked people
in this country of the free. If there
were no picked people homes now full
of grief and woe would be glad with
song and laughter, as they were long,
long ago, ere father took to placing
crimson tints upon his beak, ere he
handed to the brewers all his earnings
of the week. And a million weary
women might forsake the tubs and
suds and a million ragged children
might be wearing handsome buds, and
a million useless loafers might be
busy as the bee, if there were no
picked people in this country of the
free. Half the sorrow and the trou
