ALL WEAR IMITATION GEMS
Manufacturers Have Made Them SO
Pretty That There Is Much Excuse
for the Fad.

In a day when even multi-million-
aires wives and daughters wear lmita-
ton gems, nobody is ashamed to speak
of their cheap jewelry. Certainly, any
girl possessed of common sense would
be glad to have one of the really beau
tiful and artistic neck chains Of slen-
derest silver links, supporting lovely
locket of imitation inlays. No more
expensive and equally alluring are the
necklaces of smoked amber, imitation
moonstones, sapphires or emeralds;
the lorgnette chains in silver, gold or
gunmetal broken at intervals with or
namental jeweled bars, or the near
pearl" strings to which may be at
tached lockets of the same sort of wa
ter gems, mingled with jewels. The
various clever limitations in gems are
also set in the colonial-shaped buckles
of metal worn on afternoon house
slippers, and the very small buckles
Of kindred shape and materials used
as shirtwaist pins.

SURELY MADE MEANING PLAIN
Little Doubt About Uncle Jeff's Opin-
Ion of Coming Marriage of His
Young Master.

Apropos of his policy of silence,
Mayor Mitchell of New York said at
a dinner:
In silence there is safety. They
who want opinions often get opinions
they don't want. Take the young
planters case.
"a young Mississippi planter had a
servant, Uncle Jeff, who had cared
for him as a child and who was very
devoted to him. The young man be-
came engaged to neighboring beau
ty, who was credited with a very bad
temper. Noticing that Uncle Jeff
never mentioned his approaching mar
riage, the young planter said one day:
JEFF, you know I'm going to mar
ry Miss LAMAR
Yes was the reply, I knows it.
az haven't heard you say anything
about it, persisted the planter.
NO. Jeff acknowledged 'Tain't
for me to say muffin about it. / isn't

hesitation, you knows one thing-the

TIM ELY TIPS.

Dried orange peel, allowed to smoul-
der on hot iron griddle Will kill any
bad odor in a room, and will leave a
fragrance behind.
The Paris Art Institute offered a
$4,000 prize for a preparation which
would clean delicate fabrics and not
fade or injure the colors. The fol-
lowing simple remedy won the prize:
Crate raw potatoes to a pulp, add a
pint Of water to pint Of pulp. Pass
this liquid through sieve, then allow
it to settle. Pour off the clear liquid,
which will be used for cleaning. Dip
a sponge in the liquor and apply it
to the fabric until the spots are re-
moved. Rinse in tepid water and
press with a warm iron on the wrong
side.
A drink of water as hot as it can
be taken, if carefully followed each
night, will cure evern obstinate cases
of insomnia
Gasoline or alcohol are wonderful
helps in keeping the frost from win
dow panes. Care must be taken to
keep the gasoline away from the
fire.
If thin piece Of cheesecloth is fas-
tened over the cold air duct it will
keep out much dust and dirt.
When a tape gets away in the cas-
ing run in a crochet hook and pull 1t
through.
Chocolate is improved by the ad-
dition Of few drops Of vanilla in
the pot just before serving.
Wash all eggs before using and
save the egg shells for cleaning cof-
fee.
Wafles are much better made with
sour milk and cream and the batter
quite thin.
Bread pudding favored with choco-
late, adding it to the custard, makes a
delicious change.
A strip of flannel folded and dipped
in very hot water and wrung out,
then applied to the neck of child
with Group, will bring quick relief.
For all severe pains it is simple and
effective remedy.

TANGO GRIPS NEVADA INDIANS
They Are Raising Money for the Pur-
pose of Building Hall for
Its Display.

The extent to which the craze for
the tango and similar dances has per
meated the lives of the Shoshone Ma
ton of Nevada Indians, who are
abandoning all tribal dances, seems
incredible, but nevertheless all the
younger and a large part Of the older
members of the tribe are crazy over
the dance.
Organized plans are now under way
whereby the younger and middle-aged
Indians are raising funds for a large
dance hall for their own use in learn
ing and dancing the tango.
One of the Indian maidens has SO
perfected herself in the tango that she
is giving a complete course of lessons
at $3.50, and many of her companions
are learning rapidly.
The Indians dance until daylight,
the camp at Murray Canyon being the
liveliest of all, where Indian Dave,
a blind, aged chief, and other chiefs
almost blind furnish music on violins
and harmonious.

MORE ABOUT FISH.

During the lenten season, when
FISH and eggs are so often served, a

ERUPTION ON ANKLE BURNED

KingsVilIe, Monty trouble began
eighteen years ago. Nearly half Of
the time there were running sores
around my ankle; sometimes it would
be two years at a time before they
were healed. There were many nights
I did not sleep because Of the great
suffering. The sores were deep rum
ming ones and so sore that could not
bear for anything to touch them.
They would burn all the time and
sting like a lot Of bees were confined
around my ankle. I could not bear to
scratch it, 1t was always SO sensitive
to the touch. / could not let my
clothes touch 1t. The skin was very
red. I made what I called cap out
Of white felt, blotting paper and soft
white cloth to hold it in shape. This
I wore night and day.
IT tried many remedies for most Of
the eighteen years with no effect.
Last summer sent for some Cuticura
Soap and Ointment. The very first
time I used Cuticura Soap and Oint-
ment gained relief; they relieved the
pain right then. It was three months
from the time I commenced using
Cuticura Soap and Ointment until the
sores were entirely healed. I have
not been troubled since and my ankle
seems perfectly we'll" (Signed) Mrs.

HOSPITALITY THAT Is REAL
Hostess Can Do No Greater Good
Than by Inviting The Homeless
to Visit Her.

If you have a pleasant home, even
though it be humble" you do not
know how much comfort and JOY you
might give to some lonely ones by ask
ing them to visit it. Nearly all of US
hear from time to time of sons or
daughters of relatives or friends who
come as strangers to our town or city.
We are apt to forget them or to think
that we are too busy" to look after
them.
One conscientious hostess who felt
her responsibilities in this line, says
that she never expended time and
money to better advantage than she
did in hunting out and entertaining
homeless young people. Now that her
days CT activity are over, men and
women are often coming to her and
saying, Il never can forget those de-
hghtful evenings at your house" Il

DRUG HOUSE ENJOiNED
BY FEDERAL COURT

United States district court, to-day
granted permanent injunction in be-
half of the Centaur Company of New
York, the manufacturers Of Fletcher
Castoria, against the Stewart &
Holmes Drug Company Of this city.
The controversy arose from the sim
ulating of the labels of this well-known
preparation, and from the evidence
fled in the case it was shown that the
infringing label was first discovered
on sale in Honolulu, and was traced to
it's origin here in Seattle.
The defendant company is one of
the oldest and largest concerns of its
kind in the Northwest.

BUYER WORSE THAN SELLER
In the Scale of Depravity the Brlber
Is Far More to Be Feared Than

especially dangerous. One knows
what such person will do and trusts
only to that point of weakness. 1t is
o safe point because It is where you
can see 1t. Indeed, the poor devil who
cells at any price Is never so much to
be feared as the man whe does the
buying. 1t is the latter who enter
tains the motive and who looks for the
gain. He not only knows what he
wants, but he understands how to get
it He entertains a hundred subtle ap-
