Chop one peck of green tomatoes.
one-half peck of ripe tomatoes, six
onions, three small heads of cabbage.
one dozen green peppers, with the seeds
of each kind removed. Sprinkle with
salt and put in bag coarse enough for
the liquid to drain through. Hang the
bag over wide tin pan and let the

grated horseradish and one teaspoonful
whole white mustard seed, mace and
celery seed. Cover with good cider vim

Jars with tightly fitting covers.
SWEET CUCUMBER PICKLES.-To
many tastes sweet pickles are far more
acceptable than acid ones and they al
ways seem much more of a dainty than
the sharper sort. If tender and well
sweetened and spiced. they often seem
like delicious preserves
To 500 small cucumbers, take three
quarts of cider vinegar; add two ounces
each OF cinnamon, allspice and cloves.
three pounds of light brown sugar and
a few tiny red peppers. Let the cucum-
bers stand over night in salt and water,
and then put them in the cold vinegar
and bring this to boil. After the boil
ing begins, cook three minutes more.
If the vinegar is too strong add a quart
Of water to 1t. An increase in the guam
tity of sugar will, of course, make the
pickles sweeter.

To one peck of tomatoes, peeled and
sliced. put eight onions, sliced thin, and
one cup of salt. Let the mixture stand
twenty-four hours and then drain of
all the liquor. Then to the tomatoes
and onions add two quarts of vinegar
and one tablespoonful each of ground
mustard. ginger, cloves and allspicc,
and cayenne pepper to taste. Many per-
sons use half tablespoonful Of the
cayenne. as the peppery quality is
thought the chief charm Of soy. Stew
slowly for three hours, and when near
ly done add two pounds of sugar and
one-fourth pound of white mustard
seed. Put in jars while hot.

GARDEN BASKETS.

Nowadays a garden without its sup
ply Of baskets is no garden worthy
of the name. The shops have such
an alluring display Of garden baskets
of various sorts that only a visit to
in any gardeners breast a feeling OF
envy and desire.
For one thing. there are the baskets
in which the products Of tho garden
are harvested. For flowers there are
the wide and shallow baskets OF ma
hogany -colored wicker or bamboo. with
sweeping handles to hang over the
arm. These are especially useful for
roses or other flowers that take much
room.
There there are baskets on spikes
that are driven into the ground-long
of wood, sometimes Of wood covered
or wound with rattan. Some OF these
baskets are at the tops of the canes.
some are deep panniers halfway down
the cane, and this sort can be used to
hold peas, beans or other small vege-
table products.
The baskets in which flowers are dis
played cannot be omitted from this list
of gardening baskets. Some Of these
are wide and shallow. There Is one
model that shows a wide, shallow bas-
ket, with tall. vaselike basket in the
center. The center vase is lined with
zinc to hold water, and flowers can be
arranged in it. The shallow basket can
be used to hold fruit.

ly gathered front of net, chiffon or the
same crepe de chine attached to a very
thin net sleeveless foundation waist. A
bit of conventional embroidery is won
derfully effective as trimming across
the lower half of the inset front. The
top of 1t is shirred on a cord, and then
there is turned-back collar of crepe
de chine, and inside that transparent,
outstanding wing collar started at the
sides of the neck.
The open edges of the blouse are
drawn away from the neck to the
waist line in a slanting line, and there
bloused into a novel, scalloped band
of the same material, that hangs free
of the belt and extends slightly beyond
it.
Tho long sleeves show deep seton
cuffs arched to form a scallop over the
button outlined inner seam. The blouse
fastens just under it's button-trimmed
edge.
If you study the design carefully and
have any dressmaking ability, you can
readily see that, while It ray look
complicated. it is, in reality, cry SIM
pie to follow and reproduce.

PARIS ENDORSES TOUCHES
OF COLOR ON BLOUSES
BY ANNE RITTENHOUSE.

Special Correspondence Of The Star.
NEW YORK. July 15.-There has been
a notable revival of handwork in the
seasons blouses. Not only has the So
called French embroidery in white reap
peared, but shocking. cross-stitch and
other colored needle work have been ap-
piled to them. We have used some I'M
usual materials for our embroidery. Or
candle blouses have been decorated with
motifs done in silver thread, for example.
Beads have been used on crepe and chif-
fon, besides metal threads. Wash blouses
from Paris have designs worked in the
collar corners in raffia or colored straw,
and from all this it seems but a step
to porcupine quilts Models from Premet
and Doucet are using applied designs
cut out Of colored muslns and placed on
white.
Touches Of very bright colors are in
troduced m this way, as embroidered in
threads Of cotton. linen. silks and even
worsted. Facings, bindings and pipings
are all means Of employing the bright
shades. A new place for such embel-
hshment was seen on an imported blouse
Of white muslin, with the large ar1nholes
ample size was accentuated by the en-
broidery which was placed around them
in wide band.
More Color Now.
There is more color indeed in flowers
than there has been for some time. FASH
ion ever seems to sanction the wearing
Of a colored blouse with a white skirt.
This was reported from Paris and in due
course made its appearance in New
York. A pink lawn blouse Of q new type
round waist. round neck with two stif
frflls Of white linen outlining 1t, and
the wrist without a cuff-was shown with
a full gathered white muslin skirt, guilt
less Of trimming as the frock of little

AMERICAN FASHIONS.
By LILLIAN E. YOUNG.

1t would be difficult to find a more
attractive blouse design than that
shown in today's cut. Quite a depar-
ture from the ordinary is remarked in
the jacketlike overdrapery. and in
crepe de chine the model can be made
most fascinating.
While it is distinctly a dressy blouse,
there is yet certain tailored aspect
about it, probably induced by the
straight lines Of the so-called jacket.
1 don't see why one could not use a
plain pattern for the shirtlike body Of
this design. Cut away four or five
inches from either front edge to leave
the broad space at the center. trim one
edge with a close row Of buttons and
the other with corresponding button
holes, then fill in the gap with a slight

Automatic Air Brake Deyice
Mr.. B. J. Hoover, of Meridian,

Mr.. B. J. Hoover, of Meridian,
inventor of an automatic air
brake controller for the prevent
ion of railroad wrecks, spent
several days here with his de
vice on exhibition at the office of
w. S. Powell. The new invent
ion bids fair to revolutionize the
railroad business, in that it will
prevent the wrecks which in the
past have cost many thousands
of lives and dollars.
The simplicity and effective
ness of the device Immediately
appeals to the practical side of
railroading, and the superintend-
ents of the running stock. engi-'
neers, conductors and brakemen
have unanimously endorsed it
upon first examination.
The new invention is designed
to throw the air brake immedl-
ately when a wheel of any car In
the train has been derailed and
thereby stop the train without
the damage which follows where
the air is applied from the en-
gine by the engineer.
The device seems to be the
elimination of improvement in
air brakes. While the Westing
house brake has been the means
Of reVolutionizing railroading and
made it safer to handle long
trains at great rate of speed.yet,,
under certain conditions, it can
not be wholly relied upon. The
Hoover device can he attached
at the small cost of 200 per car
and the railroads are readily
recognizing its great value and
are applying it to their trains.
Mr.. Hoover has secured pat
ents and has organized the Queen
City Safety Appliance Co.. of
Meridian. for the manufacture
of the controller. The company
is capitalized at 100000 90 and
the stock is being sold at par at
81. 90 per share.

At 2::3O o'clock Thursday
morning fire was discovered by
night watchman Cruber in a box
car on the M. & 0. siding at the
Gull Compress and shed south of
the union station. The fire
alarm was sounded and the de-
oartment was on hand within a
short time. The flames soon
spread to the cotton on the shed
and within a very short time the
entire shed was enveloped IN
flames and was soon burned to
the ground. There was more
than 1900 bales of cotton in the
shed, all of which is a total loss.
Eleven box cars were also burn
ed to the ground. There were
two cars of cotton, two cars OF
hulIs, one car of supplies of the
Western Union Telegraph Co.
and a number of empty cars.
The she'd was erected a few
years ago by the Gulf Compress
Co. at an estimated cost of
81, 500.
The origin of the fire is un-
known. The loss will exceed
$1,000 Just how much In
surance was carried cannot be
ascertained. The cotton was
owned by local cotton men and
merchants along the various
roads that had shipped it in
here.
