For the Autumn Bazaar.

Almost everybody is called upon for
gifts of various kinds to bazaars, fairs
and other sales in the cause of sweet
charity There is let-up in these un-
dertakings in the summer, but as soon
as autumn comes again. fairs. too. will
come again.
So the really wise woman plans in
the summer her autumn fair campaign.
1t is perhaps easiest TO specialize on
some one line OF giving. In some cases
this is money. No one soliciting for
aid for bazaar will spurn a gift of
money, for with it materials can be
bought which others. less fortunate in
the possession Of money, will gladly
make into salable wares: with it. too,
charges for rent, lights and other ex
penses can be paid.
OF course, if you have more time than
money, you will wish to make some
thing which your work will make more
case. too, specializing is a good plan,
for If you plan to make the same sort
of thing for all the bazaars to which
you contribute. you can economic on
the buying of materials.
II you have time now you can make
the gifts now and pack them away to
take them out in the autumn and win
.
do this in the long vacation days of
summer, when social obligations are
sornewhat relaxed and charitable work
is rot making it's winter demands on
time.
Fairs, be II said. have an ancient
genealogy. They originated, it is said,
among the ancient Egyptians, who.
when the Nile valley overfiowed, made
their way in barges TO the great towns
, or the temples and there, where many
were congregated, sold their wares
The priests. who practiced astrology
and consulted oracles, seem to have
been the progenitors of the modern
takers and showmen that one meets at
the modern town or county fair. OF
course, il is a long call from these an
! cient festivals to the modern charity
bazaar but the likencsses are as inter-
estfng as the differences.
The country fairs of more modern
! times began really as necessities They
afforded the people a chance to get to-
F.! gether and sell their wares and prod
uce. They originally took place on the
day of the patron Of the town where
they were held.

TWO SHADES OF YELLOW POPULAR.

| America to see hosts of Stalwart
young men sitting around the tables
of the Cafe du Dome, the Rotonde, as

| So well did France like orangeade

yellow and gave them the name. The

with it's faint underglint of green.
The first people to adopt the Roman
gold were the makers of sweaters. and
, smart women have been paying $40
apiece for these garments dyed in the
exact tone of old gold coin. -,
Stockings have also been added to
match the sweaters and there are
belts of suede. velvet and grosgrain
ribbon that are worn to carry out
the emphasis laid on specially matched
coStumery.
There are few old gold gowns. al
though daring women have worn
them for dances. combined with topaz
tul1e and cravat belt of thin gold
ribbon or a girdle made from four
strands of topazes strung loosely on
thick yellow silk.
The tone known as orangeade is
easier to wear. however, and women
are showing their appreciation of this
fact by turning themselves out in mus
lin, dimity, chiffon and satin skirts
and gowns in orangeade.
Opportunity for Brown Fur
Looking over the fashions of the
hour. one would say that a gown
needs no excuse for using fur during
the summer as the hides of all ami
mails seem to have been gathered and
placed on costumery by women, experts
and amateurs.
Two years of constant usage have
not wearied it's adherents and there
is a muffied groan comes from the
continent of women when the cables
tell US that even more fur than ever
will be used in THE new winter gowns.
Rabbits have been slaughtered by
the thousands to make womans

filched from the crown to be play

Danger Signal

If the fire bell should ring would
you run and stop it or go and help to
put out the fire? It is much the same
way with cough. A cough is dan
ger signal as much as fire bell You
should no more try TO suppress it than
to stop a fire bell when it is ringing,
but should cure the disease that caus-
es the coughing. This can nearly al
ways be done by taking Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy. Many have used it
with the most beneficial results It is
especially valuable for the persistent
cough that so often follows bad cold
or an attack of the grip. Mrs. Thomas
Beeching, Andrews, Ind, writes:
During the winter my husband takes
cold easily and coughs and coughs.

best medicine for breaking UP these
attacks and you cannot get him to

Penaski was an old Eskimo WHIT

ment about 30 miles away, between
our winter quarters and Port Clarence.
He had wild yearning to possess our
stove. It was a big steel ships range
that weighed 400 pounds, which, by in
finite labor, We had brought up the
Cruz-ga-ma-pa river by fatboat.
When you consider that the Eskimo
gets along with one fire day in the
middle of the dirt floor of his hut,
the smoke of which goes out through
a hole in the roof, and the rest of the
time relies on hermetic sealing and
animal heat, You will see that it was a
noble and worthy desire. Further

wanted to outshine that fellow.
Penaski was rich according to his
own standards. He had a homemade
still made of coal-oil can and gun
barrel, in which he made 'tunguk''
from q mash of -four or rice. That he
sold to his neighbors at large profit.
He had four wives, a good dog team
and plenty of furs and fish.
When the end of winter drew near
the stove became an embarrassment to
us. Our claims lay go miles farther
inland, and it was hard to get proyi-
sions in to them. If we carried our
big range over we might not be able
TO take anything to cook on it. We ap-
preached Penaski on the matter. After
some negotiation he agreed TO earn
the stove by transporting seven loads
of provisions over the divide by dog
sled.
Bright and early the next morning
there was bowling of dogs and a
chatter of voices. and into our camp
came all the inhabitants and dogs of
the little village. They loaded up and
started, so pounds to the dog. The
