NEW YORK AND CONNECTICUT
 WAYS.

How some pieces Of legislation or cer- ain provisions thereof, serve to help the 1.olstors of laws and handicap those Fhosa duty it Is to enforce them is well Illustrated by the experience of the state police department which in seek Ing to get early information regarding certain New York license numbers found itself confronted with the fact that the New York authorities refused to give .he information over the telephone and also refused to give the information without being paid six cents for look Ing up each number and insisted upon payment in advance
 Whatever may have been the purpose -f the New York lawmakers in plac- ing such provision in the. law, for it was declared to be a requirement. of the state law, it operates to the advantage of those who make a practice of disre- sarding automobile laws and regula- lions whether they happen to know about it or not. Refused the inforna- lion by wire the Connecticut authorities were obliged to send a man to New York state 10 get the information de- - sired
 Between the authorities of states there ought 10 be an eagerness to CO., 1rerate. Except for the fact that New York is not inclined to give so much attention to insure the safety of the highway by adequate and well enforced laws. there is no reason why Connec- ucut should not be, according to size rf as much assistance to New York as New York could be to Connecticut. Laws which prevent such cooperation stand in the way of accomplishing just what the enforcers of the law are named for.
 While the Connecticut authorities have taken occasion in expressing sur prise and disgust at the New York law, hey have likewise taken advantage of tAe opportun ? to point out tha- Con aecticut is ready and willing -j give New York such help as it may need n lhe queckest possible time and wn%c-t iKSense. That indicates the kird of neishbo1ly sl irit that ought .1 exisl in Few Nork as well as in Connecticut . The contrast ought to carry It's own suggestion 10 New York state.

that is bound tD get attention. inasmuch as the claim is made that had the air ship been filled with helium instead ot hydrogen there could have been no ex- plosion and consequently, even though the framework had buckled,. the break ing up of the dirigible would have been prevented That is matter that has been getting more attention than usual. This country has spent much in experi- menting with heliuxn and certainly that which can serve the same purpose as hydrogen and provided the added factor of safety must of necessity be given the preference.
 The investigation cannot bring back the dead or restore the airshtp. If must serve as powerful lesson in con- nection with the construction and use of similar craft in the future, and it will be through the facts ascertained that it will be possible to secure a high- ly valuable guide as to what should and what should not be done in the way of building, infating and flying such great arks of the air.

TO TEsT SILK.

Silk and cotton mixtures are readily detected by examining the unraveled fibers. Silk fbers are very long.
 In these days long artificial silk H. bers made from cotton are often substi- tuted for the real article. To distinguish between the two fibers a thread should be held in the boiling washing soda and lime liquor. Silk behaves like wool and eventually dissolves.
 Artificial silk is much more resistant and in most cases will survive the treat ment. When moistened. naturally silk retains it's strength and elasticity. Arti- ficial silk does not and becomes much weaker.
 Pure silk fabrics are often weighed with tin salts. In some cases, especially with black dyed silks the weighing is as much as 300 per cent. On burning, such fabrics will leave a large mineral ash.
 In judging the strength of fabric always test 1t both ways. In most cases the crosswise strength is different from the strength lengthwise.

 If the fiannels which have become hard and shrunken are soaked in gaso- tine they will recover their former soft ness.
 A little borax should be added to the water in which sateen or any other cotton material with glossy finish is rinsed it will help to retain the shiny surface

they are of the wool, opening down the front and belted at the waistiine for a fastening. The slipon type Is still be- ing followed in silk; but then a sweater of this kind may be used instead of a blouse and worn for the afternoon teas and porch parties.
 Numbers of really beautiful silken sweaters are worn for any and all in- formal occasions. Orchid is D favorite shade and frequently there ard chic lit- ] tie tams to match that look well on the bobbed heads.
 One of the models that has attracted a great deal of attention Is made on the popular Tuxedo line, the roll collar of brushed wool extending to the waist line. Aneiler has more elaborate decoration of the brushed wool, in that

READ YOUR CHARACTER
Big and Small Hips
By Digby Phillips, Copyrighted 1891

You probably wouldn't imagine that hips have much to do with revelation of character.
 They haven't ss much as some char acteristics have. it is true. Neverthe- less, they are by no means negligible factor.
 You must make certain mental dis counts of course, of the significance of big hips in women and men for women naturally have larger hips than men in proportion to their other measurements, and hip measurements that would be con sidered large in a man would be small in a woman.
 Taking this factor. then on the basis of the extremes in the two sexes con- sidered separately, large hips denote a tendency to think slowly and act quickly (Do you object that exactly the opposite tendency is shown in the receding fore head and prominent chin of the person you have in bmind? Then immediately modify slightly the indication of the fore head and chin. but don't let the evidence of the big hips neutralize it.) They de- note a smaller measure of self-control than small hips a greater measure of sensitiveness and tmpressionability, a less

WILL PROFIT FROM DISASTER.

While consideration Is being given to The loss of the ZR-2 for the purpose of determining what caused the disaster and the loss of so many lives, attention Ell Of course be directed toward guarding against any such catastrophe In tho future. The investigation should show whether the airship was construct ed on such lines that 1t could be ex- peetsd to meet all conditions to which such a craft Is bound to be submitted. Already 1t would seem that the attempt to build the fastest and largest airshfp in the world had led the builders to at- tempt too much and that they had sac rineed safety in their efforts to estab- ush e record. From such facts as can be obtained 1t ought to be possible to reach a tairiy definite conclusion, inas- mueh as it Is to be remembered that there were the conditions disclosed on previous tests which are bound to have e valuable bearing

measure of dominating tendency of az gressiveness; less measure of creative ness; small hips show less sympathetic tendency than large ones, but more prac- ticality a greater tendency toward ab- stract theory and less toward the purely personal outlook
 But at best, though by no means neg ligible the significance of large and small hips should be regarded as notifications of main character indications rather than as positive factors.

REsuyERING OLD MIRRORS.

To resilver old mirrors or reflections rub off all of the old silver with piece of emery paper fastened to a block of wood cut to the curve of the reflector Use a fine grade of emery, so that it will not scratch the surface. Then melt together two ounces of lead, two ounces of tin and four ounces of chem ically pure bismuth.
 This should be melted in an iron ladie and a thermometer capable of registering more than 200 degrees should be placed in the mixture. Eight ouRces of mercury are added at PIP degrees and mixed with the boiling mixture This is then ap- piled warm with smooth brush.

KEEP TURpENrINE HANDY.

Turpentine should always be kept in the household. It gives quick relief to burns; it is an excellent application for corns it is good for rheumatism and sore threats. It is also a sure preven- tive against moths; by just dropping a tride in the drawers, chests and cup boards it will render garments secure from injury. It will keep ants from storerooms, if you put a few drops in the corners and upon the shelves. A spoon of turpentine added to a pail or warm water is excellent for cieaning paint.

Stories That Recall Others
Both Strong Words.

 Straightway they began to argue when a big ex-soldier interrupted them. Don't fight over that, fellows. Either term would suit you fellows, no doubt. But as for men," he drew himself up proudly, ''it takes both of them to de- scribe me on such occasions"
 That Black Cat

That cat became famous and everyone wished to see it. One friend brought his little boy to see the cat. which ihad grown into a dienihed mother. The mans daughter was very proud of the cat so she said to the little boy.
 Look, Johhny. isn't she pretty and hasn't she refined face. and just think she's only had eight kittens?'
 But Johnny wasn't very much iua- pressed and he replied: Gee. I think that's enough"

GELD TRAINING AT HOME
An American Product.
By Mary E. Ely.


 The only child, that over-protected and unprotected little soul, whose par ents are so un-intelligent in their de- sire to be intelligent, so inconsistent in their consistenciesi
 He is an appealing child, even in his most trying moments and word in his defense may soothe and encourage those who at times misjudge and find him almost unbearable:
 T believe all chiidrens good,
 If they're only understood,
 Even bad one, pears to me,
 Sjes' as as good, as they kin bet"
 The only child is surely sinned against rather than shining. He has much with which to contend, this lone some child having no legitimate vent for his social life with those of his own kind, in years and stage of de- velepoment, no one who can think his thoughts, play his games and see his little viewpoint.
 "At evening when the lamp is lit
 Around the fire my parents sit, They sit at home and talk and sing And do not play at anything sang on only child, our whimsical Robert Louis Stevenson. It is com panionship child craves, and an op- portunity to establish relations on his own plane with other children. Of course little child dearly loves 1 the undivided attention of his elders, to be singled out as an object of at tention the satellite around which those loving him revolve. He is at the | mercy of those persons who at times l overwhelm him with attention and at- lection as the mood seizes them, then, when the child least expects it, thrust l him aside without a word. ' He is constantly being experimented with, and by inexperienced parents l who to follow any other profession but parenthood. the greatest one in | the world, would fit themselves for ii | by years of study and research.
 A nurse can keep a child physically fit, she is trained for it. Parents l should go into training, curb their sel. fish pleasures, and become sane, bal. anaced, earnest, lovable. prayerful 1T 1 their conduct toward this only child 1, Then he can build right standards o- behavior and control. thus producing | the mental, moral and spiritual quail. l ties essential to good citizenship.
 A worthwhile slogan provocative O. l thought, was released at a Child Vel. fare Club-''The chief business of so. ciety, to evolve parents fit for childrer to live with to which we might add 1 Forebel's Illuminating word Com, let us live with our children"

difficulty IN casting the role OF
