SEWING HINTS.

Embroider an arrowhead design over the run in your silk stocking.
 A skirt opening or placket can be made and finished more easily if put on before gores are pasted together.
 Pretty tea aprons can be made from husbands old shirts. Take the bottom part of the back, cut off half way you can use the fronts for a ruffe to go around the bottom; have it about six inches wide. What is left of the sleeves will make the belt and strings
 Often after much time and work have 5een spent in scalloping the edges of dainty underwear it will tear through the scaIlops almost with one wearing. Those who find this to be the case try sewing a piece of narrow tape just below the scallops on the wrong side. It will be found that this helps the wearing quail ties of the garment, and if care is taken in applying the tape the scIIcnes will scarcely be noticed on the right side.
 When a machine works stiffiy place it near the fire so that the working parts may get warm. If this does not make them run quite smoothly, apply little oil. Clean all the grooves under the plate of a sewing machine with penknife, and it will work smoothly and easily. The needle must be removed before clean ing the grooves or removing the foot plate Once in three weeks take out the screw which holds the footplate, remove it, and clean out the fluff which accumu- Iates there.

HEALTH AND BEATTY

A flannel rung out of boiling ater sprinkled with turpentine and laid on the chest gives relief in cold on the chest.
 When using the cuticle scissors see that the curved ends are upward this will prevent the scissors from cutting too far into the flesh.
 Pale eyebrows and lashes make face expressionless. They can be coaxed into a better growth by rubbing the eyebrows nightly with yaseline. l. For a severe bruise apply hot water to the parts. The best way is to have two cloths. Wiring out one and apply 1t to the wounded part, and when cool re- move this and apply the other. Then there is no chilling.
 A great deal of powder on oily skin will mean more trouble with oil For the powder clogs the pores, thus they en- large and gradually become b1ackheads. So if your skin is oily have a care about the powder.
 And do treat your skin as it needs to be treated and not as your neigh bor does hers.

SUGGESTIONS FOR

THE HOUSEWIFE Retain the full flavor of new potatoes by boiling them in their skins.
 Salad plants should be planted in re- lays. so that there is always plenty. Eggshells are invaluable for clarifying drippings and cleaning bottles.
 Spiced gooseberries make most de hghtful accompaniment to cold meat. An attractive salad is Seasoned crab flake in tomato or green pepper cases. Butter fat is very important for grow ing children and for most other people If you add a little sweet cream to car- amel filling it will not sugar.
 A new shaving brush is splendid for greasing baking tins.
 When you cream butter and sugar for a cake little cold water will make the creaming easier.
 Spinach cooked, chopped. seasoned and molded is extremely wholesome served with an egg sauce.
 Cornmeal mush can be prepared in & fireless cooker, then turned into a mold and fried,
 If you want bacon to be crisp the fat must be continually poured of while cooking.
 Brush a pie over with sweet milk be- fore baking if you would have it shiny and brown.
 Lamb should be pasted constantly while roasting if you would obtain the best flavor from it.

OPERATING rEFUNCr ROADS.

Of course Henry Ford cannot fail to feel a bit proud over the appeal that has been made to him to take over a de- funct railroad in the southwest and re- establish it on a paying basis. Even the belief that he can do such a thing carries with it its own compliments. The fact that the road is bankrupt sim ply shows how much faith is placed in the ability of the automobile manufac- turer and railroad owner.
 Such a proposition was unquestion- ably the result of the success which MT. Ford has had with a railroad which he recently acquired and which he has succeeded in placing on so much more favorable basis as to warrant him in announcing a reduction in rates which step was interrupted by the interstate commerce commission because he had not compiled with the requirements nee essary before such a thing can be done.
 But f. is evident that the results ob- tained by Mir Ford with that road has so impressed others who were in charge of a road in circumstances no more fla vorab'e that they desire his influence and guidance in rehabilitating it. That NIT. Ford will undertake the task is hardly believed possible. He is ready to make a dollar and to let his ability shine but it would be a far different proposition In operating a bankrupt road that is detached from his sphere of industrial influence and one that is given the benefit of all the business that he could throw to it. It is because of the effect of business connected with his industry being furnished the road which he acquired that made it possible to make the showing that it has. Had that traffic been received by the former owners their balance sheet would have looked different. Could he do the same for the other road that is now after his mystical influence improvement would of course follow but that serves a territory that would be bit difficult for him to route his goods over exclu- sively. Hence it is believed he will de- csira the new offer to serve as a rail- roSd manager.

NEW WINTER COATS

An interesting commentary on suit and coat models which buyers are se- lecting for fall is made by one manufac- turer. Tn coats,' he said, "pollyanna, ermine and marvella are favorite fab rics, while for suits buyers are inter- ested in tricotine, twill, moussyne and veldyne. Sorrento blue navy, mohawk. shades of brown and black are the best like coat colors, with not such great demand expressed for black as might be expected considering the great vogue that it is having. There is little call for gray either in suits or coats, the former called for in greatest numbers in navy, black and brown"
 Regarding the use or lack of fur trim mings on coats, this manufacturer states that many buyers are selecting coats minus fur establishment, fashioned in soft pile fabrics. This is due to the fact that buyers are certain women who prefer a reasonably priced garment de- veloped in 8 luxurious fabric, and &C., cordingly they are buying more coats showing an absence of fur trimmings than ever before. None of the style elements Is lacking in coats of this kind, and the collars are made in generous propor- tion for the cold weather wear.''

READ YOUR CHARACTER
Small Writing
By Digby Phillips, Copyrighted 1891

There's one thing to be remembered about the difference in reading character by physical indications and by writing. The physical signs are significant because they are inherited from the same sources that the characteristics are. In the case of handwriting, however, the signs are the direct result of character.
 Assuming that the writing you are con sidering has not been done in a small hand for a specific purpose, but as a result of natural tendency, there are many illuninative conclusions you may draw as to the character of the writer
 The phrase still water run deep should be written in a. very small hand because it applies rather well to the writers of small hands.
 Such people are as a rule marked by more than average intellectuality, As well as by natural leaning toward culture.
 Again, they have a tendency to come to their conclusions though reason rather than instinct or desire They readily develop more than average orig inality, and possess the faculty of con- centration in high degree.
 They're not likely to be impulsive but rather patient, self contained and self restrained, capable of holding quietly tc their opinions and not easily dominated either by the wills or suggestions oi others. They make pretty good her mits being self reliant in the litera- sense, but not necessarily conceited. They are primarily good brain workers ant able to stand fatigue well.

STRUCTURES SHOULD BE TESTED.

While the sympathy of the country goes out to San Antonio in the heavy losses of life and property that have been suffered from the effects of the storm and flood, there cannot fail to be much attention given to the large loss of life that resulted in Chester, Pa, from the collapse of a bridge.
 While in the first instance 1t does not appear that it was possible for San Antonio to have prevented the deluge, there are conditions about the second which would indicate that IL might have been avoided had the structure been subjected to occasional tests Ac- cording to the size of the crowd on the bridge at the time the weight could not have been much over five tons and it is ridiculous 10 suppose that bridge which carries two trolley tracks should collapse with such weight, for in these days many an auto load amounts to more than five tons while two loaded trolley cars would also be heavier
 From the plight of the Texas city about the only lesson Is the advisability Of locating on higher ground but there are perhaps many communities that may well profit from the Chester disas- ter. It is stated that tte bridge was an old fashioned one and 1t is probable that there are many just like it through out the country waiting for similar con- ditions before dropping into the stream he.ow. All such structures which are supposed to bear much weight and car " traffic should be submitted to periodi- cal tests to determine their stability
 Had that been followed in the Pennsyl- vania city it is probable that 1t would
 not be mourning today the list of 25 dead to say nothing nf sympathizing with almost as many more injured.

DRY CLEANED SKIN

The dust of the all-day outing or mo- tor ride is killjoy for many woman hose skin is too sensitive for washing in the middle of the day while the air is hot.
 A dry cleaning however, can be given the most sensitive skin without niury or discomfort. An excellent medium is light carbonate of magnesium, there are two qualities light and heavy. It must be well rubbed into the skin, applying fresh powder until all of the dust and grime has been removed.
 The traveller should take a small box full with her and a roll of surgical cot ton with which to pat the powder into the skin for cleansing.
 Alter the skin has been cleansed and the powder all brushed off, the regular face powder can be applied.

TEST OF CLEANLINESS.

To many persons there is an almost infalible test of the house that passss the essential test of cleanliness, and that is in the odor of the house when first entering it from outdoors.
 The least suspicion of sewer or coal gas is apparent at once. An unwholesome and unventilated cellar clogs the clear ness of the atmosphere of the whole house, and there is no doubt about the fact that a kitchen where immaculate cleanliness is not the rule sends forth a T%Ecid unsavory scent to even ono most spotless of drawing rooms.

DICTATES OF FASHION

Shell and metal ornaments shaped like Spanish combs are used for nat trimmings.
 Wraps decorated with large beads are popular in Canton crepe and cloth,
 Petunia, fuchsia, dahlia and vio!ine are some of the names given the new red purples which are offered for fall
 Confetti foulard is popular, the colcrs most often encountered are all colored small polka dots on gray-5lue ground.
 The peg top brooches in both riding and golf suits are less popular than the smoothly fitting models and in the cuff treatment in some instances ahe full ness, too, has been eliminated by a se- ries of small gores that are used rather than the shirring.
 Shorter coats, too. are used, cited as proving that women are becoming ac- crstomed to this type of costume.
 In addition to the suit with pIeated CT elastic back coat in the prevailing type, suits have been noted consisting of knickerbockers in large two-toned over-plaid feeces to be worn with a s,ip-over jumper in solid tone. A decidedly new silhouette in suita is

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
what Tax Collection Costs.

MT. Editor:-How many of the tax payers of the City and Town Of Nor Wlch know that the commission of the tax collector for the collection cf the city and town and personal taxes amounts to $7,5oo?
 The city and town of New London with grand list of over s3o, 900, 900 and a tax rate of 33 1-2 mills pay their tax collector fiat rate of s2.500 8 year for collecting their tax while the city and town of Norwich with a grand list of $2o,00o,o 900 and tax rate of 42 mills pays s7,5o0 to collect their taxes. Is it not about time the over burdened tax payer had some relief from the outrageous extravagence of paying tax collector s7,50o for about three months work?
 Just think it over and when the an- nual town meeting comes to Jay the tax and vote the compensation of the tax collector go there and vote reascn- able compensation that will compare with the amount of work done and what it costs other cities to collect ther taxes.
 It wou1 seem, Mir Editor, as # 1t would be a nice thing for the Chamber of Commerce to take up in the Inter- ests of the city and town of Norwich and the overburdened taxpayers.
 If 1t is not possible to reduce the commission would it not be wei. to have separate tax collectors for the city and both of them at the rate of s3.75o each?
 A TAxPAYER-:hat would be willing to take the job at s2500 a year fiat.

which he reached late in July.
 From Ogdensburg he went by water to Sackett's Harbor, whence naval vessel carried him to Fort Niagara A short visit to the Falls and to Buffalo followed, after which another sloop of war took him to Detroit. Here his westward journey ended and, turning homeward, he entered Washington in September and was escorted by citi- zens to the Executive Mansion. At the time it was still far from being completed, but it was habitable, and in it Monroe took up his abode-a wiser man than when he left the Cap- ital.
