The Twin City star. [volume] (Minneapolis, Minn.) 1910-19??, 1914-06-12

The "Star" has called the attention
of it's readers a number of times to the
excellent work and the success of Mr.
Frank Peoples, our Minneapolis Con
tractor and Builder.
1t has done so because Of pride in
the achievements of this we'll equipped
Afro-American Citizen along lines es
sentially different from the ordinary
and because of the assurance of sup.
port from our citizens. Mr.. Peoples
success offers for those who come
among us prepared to give value re,
ceived. We learn from Mr.. Peoples
that his business shows a steady
growth as confidence in his ability
and integrity increase.
It is the ambition of Mr.. Peoples
to conduct his building operations with
the help of skilled Colored Mechanics
For this purpose he has consulted
Mr.. Booker T. Washington, of Tus.
kegee, and through this source has
entered into negotiations with mum
Der of the Tuskegee Graduates. One
of them, Mr. w. A. Bostock, for a
number of years in charge of Tuske-
gees mechanics, has accepted an en-.
gagement with Mr.. Peoples, and is
now employed in construction under
way in this city and St. Paul.
Bearing in mind the scarcity OF
suitable houses for Afro-American
tenants, the Peoples office is making
strenuous efforts to induce our people
to build. Mr.. Peoples is building
upon a lot owned by himself located
at 3S49 Fourth Ave. S., modern
Five Thousand Dollar, Ten-Room
Duplex. This will soon be ready fol
occupancy, and will be offered to
Afro-American renters.
In st. Paul, Mr.. Peoples has under
way a modern Five-Room Bungalow
constructed for Mr.. o. E. Williams al
1866 Blair st. This, when completed
will be one of the cosiest and most
attractive of st. Pauls homes.
In a dwelling nearing completion
being built for Mr.. w. M. Smith, Of
the P. o. Dept, Minneapolis, Mr.. PEG
pies is constructing home designed
along unusual lines. Every inch Of
space is skillfully used in this dwell
ing which contains eight rooms, q
bath, a full basement, sun porch, hot
water heat-all the modern require
ments assembled in a most attractive
way. The dwelling will be stucco
hardwood throughout, and will cost
complete Four Thousand Dollars"

ST. PAUL'S BUSINESS LEAGUE
A prosperous outlook

Messrs. Owen Howell, J. H. Zed-
ricks and Editor Adams deserve great
credit for the organization of the
Negro Business Men and Employees,
of St. Paul. They are having month
ly meetings addressed by represen-
tative citizens and serve a real feast
for IS cents, which would do credit
to any citizen. We want to see the
present enthusiasm continue, and wish
for its success. 1t is a step in the
right direction AMI a movement ar,ons
Negroes for Commercial considera-
ton, which can come only from the
cooperation of those who represent
the capital and labor of the race.

four pieces in the shape OF the peck

cardboard should be slightly smaller
than the pockets, otherwise they will
not fit in easily when wound with rib
bon.
Some pretty lingerie ribbons should
next be chosen, and different color
wound round each cardboard and ar
ranged In the various pockets.
To complete this case, the worker
should add tiny pair of scissors to
one end of the case. These should be
attached by means of narrow piece
of ribbon. At the other end bodkin
should be fastened in the same man
ner, and slipped into narrow pocket,
which should be allowed for when
making the ribbon pockets.
A piece of ribbon should be sewn
on the back, SO as to tie the case to-
gether when folded.
A case Of this description would
take up very little room in a drawer
or box, for it has the appearance OF
cardcase when folded.

The Knitted Hal.

Right in line with the soft crowns
and the millinery 'that nestles about
the couture and frames the face in
stead of just sitting on the head as
was at one time the mode, we now
have the knitted hat. Instead of max
ing the best of a Tam-o'Shanter,
whether it was becoming or not, the
sporting hat of this season will be
made to simulate all the fashionable
millinery in the tailored styles. They
are so comfortable and chic In ap-
pearance that they will be used for
any knockabout wear Many pretty
ones are displayed with the misses
and childrens school millinery. The
matron or young woman may have as
rich a hat as she desires. They are
made in silks and chenilles, besides
ratines, woods and cottons, all admit
ting Of a touch of stylish trimming.

Calumet the Secret of Economy

The high cost of living nowadays. and
the way prices are steadily climbing SKY.
wards, is making economy in the Kitchen
even more important than IT was In the
good old days of our thrifty ancestors
But how to achieve economy? There's
the rub!
In many lines, it depends almost en-
tirely on the housewives knowledge or
foods and on her watchfulness-but FOR.
tunately, in one line, baking. economy
can be made almost automatic by the use
of the famous Calumet Baking Powder.
Economy in baking. as every good cookF
knows, depends not so much on economy
in buying the materials as on the success
of her bakings. Failures mean waste
bigger losses by far than the savings eho
makes in buying. And the fact that Calu.
met absolutely prevents failures ana
makes every baking successful has made
il the fayorite of every cook that seeks
to be economical. In other words, Calu-
met is the secret of economy in baking.
It is the. purest, too-attested by hum
dreds of leading physicians-and as for
its general quality. it is enough to say
that Calumet has received the highest
awards at two Worlds Pure Food EXposi+

No Cure for Cancer Vet.

In his annual report DIR. E. F. Bash
ford, general superintendent of re-
search in the laboratories of the i'm
perial cancer reasearch fund, told the
members of the society that during the
past year there had been II claims
to the discovery of a cure for cancer.
All of these had been investigated and
no justification for any one of these
claims had been obtained DR.. Bash
ford also said women were more liable
to cancer than men. In England and
Wales in 1910 the death rate from
cancer was $50 per 100000 for men
and 1,070 for women.
AS the London Times says editorial
ly in commenting upon this report:
''The only reasonable expectation of
curing cancer still rests upon its com.
plete removal by the surgeon at the
earliest possible time after it is dis
covered. Medical Record.

SPRING SHOE STYLES READY
7uttons and Tendency to Low Heels
Promise to Be the Features of
Coming Season.

Long before a woman buys her fall
shoes the makers have planned the
styles for the following spring-so far
in advance of fashion is the wholesale
trade.
Rumors are that nothing but button
shoes will be worn next spring, that
patent and kid feathers will be used
mostly and that heels have tendency
to be very low
This does not mean that there will
be a craze for the almost heelless
shoes of the summer just gone-far
from it. The newest heel will be low
Louis instead of the Cuban we have
known. For girls the little heel will be
good always, and for outing wear, the
heelless, rubber-soled low shoe will be
as popular next summer as it has been.
Turned-sole shoes will be used ex-
tensively. and such tans as will be
seen will be in dark shades-light tan
only in outing styles.
Moreover, for dress wear, makers
predict vogue of fancy shoes; that is,
black or dark tan vamps, with colored
suede tops, these to match the gown
or suit, if preferred.
Speaking of rubber-soled shoes, they
we're a boon in that they were soft and
flexible, but they were heavy to the
foot, and some say too heating for
comfort
There is just out on the market, and
will soon be purchasable in shoe
stores, a new sole leather, tanned by a
special process that makes it as fex-
ible as rubber. yet light in weight. For
women with sensitive feet this will be
a real boon

Complete Case.

pecially suitable, as it had running
through it gold shimmering thread
Two circular pieces of ribbon were
cut out to cover each piece Of card
board, and joined together by over
sewing all round the edges.
The roll of rose-colored ribbon was
then inserted between the covers, and
a hole pierced through the middle of
the two latter and the roll of ribbon.
A piece of ribbon was threaded
through the holes and sewn securely
to each cover. 1t was then joined at
the top into rosette.
In the center of each cover small
er rosette with ends was sewn to
give a finishing touch.
Should the worker wish to make
one of these for a present the color
be taken into consideration.
The case would look delightful COW
cred with white linen. finished with
blue or pink ribbon. The monogram
of the owner should be worked in the
same color.
In order that the linen covers could
be removed easily when soiled, but
tonholed eyelets should be worked at
short distances apart round the
edges. A piece of ribbon should then
be run through these and tied in a
wee bow.
Another holder which is very easy
to make contrived from half a yard
of ribbon.
The worker should choose wide
weave of silk ribbon covered with a
pretty floral design. To make the
case, the ribbon should be turned up
about one-third of the width, and
caught at intervals of three or four
inches with a neat fagoting stitch to
form pockets.
The hens on either side should
be finished in the same way.
The worker should next take some
