MUNICIPAL PIGGERiES.

Never has there been so much at tention given to the matter of waste as there has been in the past few years. People have been brought to realize how extensively it is indulged in and how much they can do individ- ually in bringing about large reduc- tions therein. As the result of the educational campaigns and the up- ward tendency of prices people have come to the realization of the service they can be to themselves in prevent ing it.
 Although it has not developed sole ly from the war, for it was carried on in some places before, not few cities of the country have undertaken the maintenance of municipal piggeries and disposing of the city garbage in the fattening of the pigs. New Lon don is interested in this matter of saving waste and increasing the pro- duction of pork. It is now consider ing the collection of it's garbage for that purpose. Up it Worcester the city raises on an average of 2500 hogs every year op a 700 acre farm and has been doing it for a number of  years. Il finds it's garbage of much value in this connection. It has got ten so that swill isn't thrown away any more. it is sold and many are only too glad to buy it where it can be ob- tained in quantities.
 The latest instance of establishing a city piggery is in the District of Co., lumbia where the commissioners have decided to try out the idea and there it is estimated that Washington will yield sufficient garbage to feed 12,o0C pigs daily. After the experience ot many cities in this undertaking and the continuance of the business it can- not help being felt that there is an ad- vantage therein that ought not to be overlooked when it comes to prevent ing waste.

NoNIuRARLE SILKS.

It is though that the new season will see the use of more silks and materials that are nontubable and it will be great relief to some women to be just as extravagant in their clothes as they want to be. Light colored georgettes, chiffons and numerous novelay silks with much advertised trade names are being used lavishly and it is also un- derstood that these silky materials and flannels will be much used for the separate skirt

THE NEW LINlNGS.

Satin capes shown at the Paris open ings were lined with a soft pile fabric like duvetyn.
 And have you heard of gingham lin- ings? This is no new idea, but after all why should not ginghams make as good a lining for a summer cape or coat as satin or peap de cygne or chiffon?
 Who would ever have dared to use unbleached muslin for the lining of coats and capes? No one in the world but one of the smartest of Paris dress makers. Apparently that is merely a bit of daring and not done in an ef- fort toward economy, for the un- bleached fabric is used to line the most gorgeous and luxurious of gar ments.

TINT YQuR HOUSES.

White blouses of either silk or geor gette are apt to be a bit yellow after a winters laundering, and will give new color to ones wardrobe if tinted in new, becoming colors. Apricot, flesh, violet coffee and delicate green are easy to dye. Sometimes a contrast ing silk collar of white, blue. pink or black will add tone to a faded or life less looking blouse and make it look new and more becoming. A neck chain of varicolored velvet will often give a new effect to a blouse.

Of course the rings are held in place by tiny gold wires, but so far as an outsider can see they are simply passed through big holes cut in the soft flesh.

Intrepid Explorer from
Spain.

Columbus With His Three Little Boats
Crossed Atlantic Seeking to Sail
East by Going
West a

Tomorrow marks an important date
in American history. 1t will be the
-four. hundred twenty-seventh ami
versary of the landing Of Columbus on
American soil. 1t was in the early
morning Of October IL, 1892 that the
intrepid explorer with his three cara
wells sighted land, and later in the day
went ashore proclaiming the land for
the king and queen OF Spain.
Landing Day is always observed by
the knights Of Columbus with some
sort of celebration or with services In
the churches. In the larger cities Col
umbus Day is usually the day for q
parade or celebration of some sort.
Keokuk has never formally observed
the day. but there has been Informal
, recognition of 1t.
Weeks after he had left the Euro
pean coast in his attempt to go east
but water ahead of him, Columbus did
not despair, but his sailors did, and
with mutinous crew to deal with he
found navigation of the unknown
waters a peril in every sense OF the
, word. Finally he Is said to have
promised them that II land were not
sighted within the next few days, he
would turn back
That very night some OF the sailors
saw marks of land in some driftwood
that floated by. The next day land
birds were seen, and that night, &C.
cording to Columbus diaries. no one
slept. During the night the sailors in
the lookout and the explorer himself
on the highest deck Of his frail little
craft, saw lights moving back and
forth 1t meant that land was near.
The ships cast anchor in strange
waters for the first time in months,
and when daylight came, the sailors
went ashore.
