sertion and outlined with a rosebud vine,
and below the band put a frill OF lace
edged net, For the uppers of the slip
pers use broad satin ribbon covered with
lace insertion. trim the toe with a rose
bud-centered rosette of ribbon and attach
the whole to soles of lambs wool, lined
with quilted satin. A satin strip OF rib
bon, covered with net and closed under
n spray OF rosehuds, composes each gar
ter which must be fastened with a hook
and eye and, If you intend the three
piece set for a gift, present 1t In n bag
of fine white lawn drawn up with pale

THE MEN At GETTYSBURG
oFrom the Hartford Times.)

tfrOn inc tiAIllbll l lncS.J
A very large percentage OF tho men
who have gone to Gettysburg went with
out very much money in their pockets.
They had little trouble in packing their
possessions into the ono suitcase or
handbag allowed them. Although most
of them have been engaged in civil oc-
equations ever since tho war, very few
of our veterans are we'll to do.
War Is n desperate sort of thing. at
tracing tine restless. the reckless, the
brave. Probably sheer love of adventure
In the young hearts of the sixties did
as much, or more, to III tho ranks as
did any reverent spirit OF patriotism,
any profound sense of duty. 1t was the
venturesome, dashng boys who went
away 10 face BULLETS and fever and
vernin-ridden camps at sl3 per month.
The sober. sednte and saeacous stayed
establishing little mills. selling gold for
grecnbacks and otherwise contributing to
the upbuilding Of the nation. They had
good starts In business when the rovers
came home IN threadbare uniforms with
empty pockets And the three and five
year courses in the school of the army
had not been OF the sort to train good
business men.
The men at home couldn't have won
their prosperity without the men at the
front but the men of tho front couldn't
have been kept thore without the men
at home; indeed, there would have been
little reason for being there Perhaps the
soldier men lost something OF their de-
sire for goods in their days of battle
and nights of bivouac. Such things make
radical changes in the sense of values,
Perhaps each group has been duly re-
warded in the spirit of its service and in
the spirit of it's wish Let us hope 80.
Which brings us back to the natural
reflection on the wonderfully divergent
types of humans needed to make any
thing even approaching a successful

WAIST STYLES IN PARIS.

-lccording to the Dry Goods Economist.
the dominant feature In the Paris waist
fashions is the surplice or fichu style, In
connection with frillings. pleatings and
fittings.
There is a fancy also for using printed
stuffs for sleeves only in plain-color
waists: or the body Of the waist in vest
like form may be of the highly colored
print and the sleeves Of plain color.
Sheer net blouses are strong claimants
for favor IN lingerie lines, these If any
thing being more popular than the baths
ties or linens.
There is another claimant for honors
IN lingerie waist lines, however, and that
is. organdy of the sheerest possible fine
ness, on which are beautiful machine
embroidery designs, This is the abso-
lutely new feature appearing now ms a
novelty in Paris and highly regarded as
a big favorte for the coming season
Nearly every waist is finished with
the open neck, and there is less seen OF
the regulation kimono cut, most of the
new models having the sleeves set In at
the armhole.

man Falls with Floor but
Is Rescued.

One Of the hottest fires which the de-
partment has faced in several years de-
stroyed the livery stable belonging to
Peter y. Dorcy of Walnut street early
Tuesday morning and caused a loss es-
timated ut 5000, including three horses
which were burned to death. The origin
of tho fire is not known but when dis
covered the flames had advanced so far
that nothing could be done toward saving
the buildings. In tho blaze Mr. Dorey
was burned severely about the face and
hands while making an effort to save
some of tho animals One horse was res
cucd but little else was saved. The loss
is about one-half covered by insurance.
In addition to the horses the property
lost includes three tons of hay, two two
seated soighs, two cutters, four double and
four single harnesses, 800 pounds of crack
ed corn, % bushels Of oats, buggy. a
landau, and a quantity of robes blankets.
otc The stable usually contained six
horses but there were only four in 1t at
the time of tho fire, as one was out to
pasture and another was doing hacking.
Two Of the animals lostwcre a heavy pair
Of draurht horses which are used on one
of the city street sprnklers.
The alarm was runE in from box 81 AT
the corner Of Oak and Walnut streets
shortly after three o'clock. At this time
the light from the conlagration could be
seen for many blocks and flames were
shooting out of the doors and windows.
Edward Dorcy was the first to learn of 1t.
lie was awakened by the light and the
pitful sounds Of the horses. He reused
his father and both rushed out to the
barn One horse was rescued and when
they went after another the elder Dorey
was thrown to the ground by a squirt of
flame and burned. He was pulled out
half-conscious by his son. One or two
wagons were also saved.
The firemen put two streams of water
to work as soon as they arrived but the
heatwas so intense that atfirst they could
not go near the building. a telegraph pole
100 feet away caught fire and was extin
gushed by Lineman Presley. pine

and burned nearly down. Trees on the
opposite side of the road We're scorched

from spreading the fire to the neighbor-

water was poured on for more than two
hours. AS the blaze was put under con-

into a part of the structure which war
standing. The floor gave way ana ne fell
about eight feet but was uninjured and
was quickly rescued by his fellows.

whether or not he would rebuild but the
business will go on the same under any

PRODTCTS FROM RAISIN SEEDS.

y government bulletin, entitled The
Utilization of Waste Raisn Seed" has
recently been issud by the bureau of
plant industry at Washington. 1t is based
on an investigation which proved that
the seeds removed from raisins yield
technically useful products that fully JUS
tify the expense involved in separating
them.
In the ra!sin-seeding industry. which
in recent years has grown to such pro-
portions in California, vast quantities Of
seed accumullte annually. From 10000
to 5000 tons of raisins are seeded every
year and It Is estimated that there should
be in the neghhorhood of 1900 to 1909
tons of the seed available annually
The investigation described In the bull
letin showed that four important products
can he obtained from the waste seeds,
namely. strip. fixed oil, tannin extract,
and meal. II the entire annual output
of 5000 to 1000 tons of seed were used.
there would he obtained $50 to 74o tons OF
strip. $40 10 400 tons of fixed oil, 800 to
40 tons Of tannin extract, and L6oo to ,,
80 tons of meal
Commercially tha manufacture Of strip

ease. owing TO the SOlGt!litN or the sugars

solves itself into simple extraction and

HAIRDREssINGs FROM PARIS.

The Dry Goods Economist says that
very little change has taken place In
hairdressing styles in Paris within the
last six months.
Practically no false hair is worn ex-
cept in the form OF a false front, or even
in some instances a wig, which with
either the side or center part is waved
in stimulation Of the natural hair. This
Is drawn down over the ears and knot
ted at the back to form a casque or
French roll.
The apparent desire is to completely
outline the shape of the head, so that
there Is no place In which a switch, or
braid, or even puffs or curls, may be
used.
The present form Of hairdressing has
brought about the very general adoption
of jewel-headed pins These first appear
ed in real tewery. and are now very ex-
tensively copied in less expensive form.
Among the most popular are the fiat
two-pronged pins with rounded ends. in
which rhinestones are encrusted. either
set solid or arranged TO carry out some
