N0RWALK HAS
 FORMER FIRST
 LADY OF LAND
Mrs. Thomas Joseph Preston, ClevelanHS Widow,
 Lives There.

Mrs. Thomas Joseph Preston, is a name which will bring no answering flash of recognition from the ma jority of readers yet it is that of a woman who was once in the world s limelight. Mrs. Preston, who was formerly Mrs. Grover Cleveland, was born in Buffalo, N. '. on July 21, 1884. Her father, Osca1 Folsom, was at one time a law partner of Grover Cleveland. When MT. Cleveland be- came the president of the United States, 1t was the young and lovely daughter of his former partner that he sought as the mistress of the White House, as the first lady of the land"
 The beauty of the White House bride, and the fact that she was the first and only wife of a President to be married at the official mansion, and the youngest woman who had ever held that exalted position, made her an object of universal interest and admira tion.
 Miss Folsom was educated at Wells College. and it was while she was a student at that school that rumors began to spread linking her name with that of the great statesman. It WIS a matter of much excited cam puS BOSSlp, put Miss E'OlSOTn refused all information, thoroughly disprov- ing the allegation that the fair sex are incapable of keping secrets.
 When Grover Cleveland of New York became President Cleveland. <. and occupied the White House with his sister, the rumors of the con templated marriage became more fre- Cuent, Miss Folsom was then in Europe, and returned only a short time before the wedding. She sailed from Antwerp without the knowledge of the newspaper sleuths, and landed secretly in New York. It was not until the Saturday before Tuesday, June 2 1886, that rumor became certainty through an official an uouncement from the White House, and on the latter date the ceremony was performed.
 The wedding was simple. and the ceremony was witnessed only by rela- lives of the President and his bride After the death of MT. Cleveland, his widow devoted herself to the educa- ton of her children. After several years of widowhood, she again be- came a bride, her second husband Prof. Thomas Joseph Preston being a member of the faculty of Wells Col 1ege.
 Mrs. Preston is now a resident of Norwalk, Conn.,, in the Rowayton Section.

Household Hints

Fats in the form Of oils are being used in cooking nowadays by many housewives in place of the hardened fats.
 Fat in the form of oil is fuel for the human body just as coal is to the engine. From the beginning of life to the end Of existence of food to give us strength and growth and do our work on.
 Oils used in place of hardened fats in cooking or as a dressing on greens that any pure hardened fats give.
 It is physical not mental, work that uses up the greater amount of our food. The digestive disturbances which are often attributed to eating oily foods are probably not so much due to the fact that they are greasy as that they are not properly cook e6 or are eaten in too large quan- titles.
 Cottonseed oil, highly refined, is equally palatable on salads as when used as a frying medium or in pas tries It will not add a flavor to food with which it is used. but brings out and enhances the natural flavor of such food.
 It is wholesome and economical and it's use in sauces, gravies or dressings, and for deep fat frying has long been found entirely satis- factory. Use American cottonseed oil, thus helping the nation use year ly tons of cottonseed and at the same time buying home foods.
 Here is a money saver for any one using oil cook stoves:
 When the wicks have burned down so they are too short to use, buy one new wick, and then take one of the old wicks you would otherwise throw away, and cut into small wicks or bands about three-quarters of an inch wide. Then take your old wicks when they become too short to use, and trim off the burnt part. Sew on one of these bands, and you will find you have a wick as good as a new one, and you can repeat this every season.
 l save S1.05 every season by repair ing our three-burner oil saove this way; and it takes me about 20 minutes.

FEATHER FANS ALL THE RAGE
 IN LONDON
Screens Shaped Like Dainty Hand Mirrors Made of
 Ostrich PiumeS.

London, July 23.-The latest and most up to date of all novelties in London are the new screen fans, shaped like a dainty hand mirror ana
 composed of five shaded ostrich feathers that are ever so slightly
 curled at the tips. They are much
 in request for wedding gifts-jndeed,
 the feather fan reigns supreme this
 season. It has banished those of
 gauge, hand painted with lovely Wat
 teau or Condor scenes, while lace fans are equally out of date.
 Even for day wear the new bril-
 liant colored single feather fans are
 carried. a long, bright orange, green,
 cherry or purple feather mounted in
 a gold, ivory or amber stick, adding
 in no small way to the smart effect
 of a lovely race or garden party
 toilette.
 Among other new ideas is that of
 using white or natural cOlored eagla
 feather fans for day wear, several of
 these having made their appearance
 at luncheon parties and matinees
 during the heat wave. The briIliancy
 of the scene in the Opera House was
 considerably enhanced this season
 owing to the use of vivid feather
 fans that produce daring but most
 effective splashes of color all over the stalls
 Another lovely new fan design Is what is known as the Prince of Wales fan, composed of three enormous white ostrich feathers arranged in imitation of the famous crest adopted by the heir apparent. These are al most invariably carried by debU- i tantes, while women of more mature l age are turning their attention to magnificent fans composed of den- cately shaded ostrich feathers mount ! ed on mother of pearl or blond tor toise-shell sticks, the plumes being | long at one end and arranged so that 1 they gradually slope down until they ] end in a cluster of curIed tips on the l opposite side.
 l Where all the money comes from to purchase these extrava gant trif1es IS f one of the mysteries of the moment l for S1OO to $125 is no uncommon | figure to pay for a feathered screen 1 nowadays. Still debutantes who can not afford to purchase at these prices
 are cleverly getting round the diff l ficulty by having long, discarded | feathers formerly used as hat trim ming dyed brilliant shades of orange, scarlet, Chinese blue and green and | mounting them in the new straight effect.
 A favorite fashion of utilizing old feathers of this sort is to dye them and curl the ends ever so slightly and then mount them in groups of threes, so that when closed the feathers lie absolutely one behind the other, inn parting a far richer and more luXu- rious appearance than that achieved by 8 single plume, no matter how long it may be.

BE GOOD TO YOURSELF.

The secret of health, Of success and happiness, is being good to ones self, putting ones self in a superb to do the biggest thing possible to him, and to take advantage of what ever opportunities come to him. Any thing which prevents a man or wo- man from attaining this high-water mark of personal efficiency is a sin against true economy. Every human being should have an understanding with himself at the outset that he will have nothing to do with the false economy that results in lowered vitality or efficiency, that anythin: which tends to cut down his power. even in a small fraction, is very bad economy and very unscientiflc.

FERN CULTURE
 FOR WOMEN

There is perhaps no> plant grown which so appeals to the refined taste of the gardener and lover of plant life as the fern, with it's wonderful grace of form and variety of color shading.
 Few people realize what charming effects can be obtained at very small cost with the air of our native wood ferns. We admire them when they are seen in their native cool and shaded haunts, but we do not realize they can easHy be transplanted and will quickly contribute to the beauty of our lawns and gardens.
 Ferns may be found in the woods of almost every state in the Union. Around every house, whether in city or village, there are shady spots where grass and flowers will not grow. We look at these bare and un- inviting places and wish something could be done to make them attrac- tive. Take a day off, go to the woods and with a trowel dig up some ferns; secure as many varieties as possible, plant. them in the prepared bed, the larger varieties at the back, the more delicate in front.
 It does not require so many for a start, as they multiply rapidly. Keep them moist until thoroughly estab- Ilshed Late in the fall cover with leaves. In the spring do not remove these leaves from the bed, as they help to hold the moisture. Enrich the soil and give to the fern more of their native conditions. Thus the former unsightly spots will have be- come places of joy and beauty Thrift Magazine.

RED GROSS GIVES KEROSENE 70 THE.
 POOR 0F SERBIA

Pirot, Serbia, July 23.-Kerosene distributed with other relief supplies by Red Cross agents here was re- ceivcd as if it were gold. A short time before, the Mayor of Pirot had paid S110 for a five gallon can of the precious liquid. During the entire Bulgarian occupation the inhabitants of this district had no lights in their homes after sun down.
 Bread had been selling at soc a pound and the poor, unable to pay such a price, were living on cornmeal and oats. Now, with the arrival of tons of American flour and carloads of other supplies the situation is much relieved.
 Dozens of children have been found in abandoned houses living on the charity of neighbors. Mothers are ready to give up their children to anyone who will give them food

IF YOU CAN'T PAINT.

Many women who have an ar tistic sense but ability to wie1d the paint brush often bemoan the fact that they can not put into execution some of the charming things they see in the shops. They forget that there is one substitute for hand painting which in many cases is more effec- tive. Save every colored picture, spray of flowers, motif or design that you come across. Then when you want to make one of the attrac- tive enamel boxes, put a spray on the back of your painted chair, or deco rate a lamp shade, select your pie ture, paste it securedly in place and give the whole thing a coating of white shellac. Wallpaper often comes in handy for just such treatment.

E'TIQUE

Which Hand?-"Which hand does a gentleman use in tipping his hat to a lady?" (Answer.) A gentleman doesn't tip his hat to a lady; he re- moves 1t entirely from his head with the hand farther from the lady. An exception is when such hand is occu- pied with luggage, in which case the nearer hand lifts the hat.
 Breakfast Etiquette - Here Is an argument for you to decide: Is i. good form for people to open their letters at the breakfast table, even if they first receive permission to do so from others at the table? ?'' (Answer). A greater freedom is per mitted at the breakfast table than at other meals. Many weIl-bred famt- lies do not hesitate to look over mail at the breakfast table, but not at lunch or dinner. Similarly, very many well-bred people read a newspaper at the breakfast table every day, but not at any other meal.
 CALLS-"IIow soon should one call upon ones hostess after attend ing her formal dinner or party? Should one pay such a call if invited, but unable to attend the event it. se1f?"
 (Answer). Call in person within two weeks You should call if you were invited to the affair, even if you were unable to accept.
 LETTERS OF INTRODUCTION- ''Is it correct form for me to request letters of introduction from friends to people in a distant city where I am going visiting? Or should I wait for them. to offer such letters to social acquaintances?
 (Answer). Letters of introduction of a social nature are never supposed to be asked for. You might mention in your friends presence that you in tend visiting in such-and-such a city. If she chooses to volunteer to give you letters to friends there, it's we'll and good. But you should not em- barrass her by asking for such letters.
