AUTUMN
BY d. C. PEATTIE.

There are some people without the
remotest sense of direction. They never
see even the regions in which they
have long lived as map. They know
where to go by experience, but they
lack all intuition of geographical
sort. They are uncertain to the end
of their lives which is Chile and which
is Argentina, think that the Potomac
is the Mason and Dixon line, and that
Denmark is near the Arctic Circle.
wonder If they are not the same as
those to whom Autumn and the end
of all the seasons glory is an annual
death, a blight descended upon the
earth. Personally I love to think of
Autumn in its astronomical aspect,
even If really do not know anything
about astronomy.
We learn in school, but often forget
again, that Autumn is a leaning of the
sphere OF earth so that the North Pole
tips away from the sun and our sector
of the sphere revolves through a short
day and long night. To this is due
the color in the leaves, the sparkle in
the air, the heap of nuts in the souir-
rels hollow tree, the flutter of flags,
II you will, around the foot ball
grandstands. Actually, If / mistake not,
the earth Is little nearer to the sun
than in Summer, for the ellipSe of its
path Is not regular. But the fitting
away of our Northern Hemisphere more
than neutralizes this, and we go spin
ming on through space, with the ice
cap at the Pole broadening daily to the
eyes that watch us through the tele-
scopes on Mars.

There are lot Of arbitrary relations

If it is Summer time, the dark" won't

there is little insight into these rela-

robe or household appointments, and
that the damage so carefully guarded
against elsewhere has been done here.
Action helps in any matter of mis-
fortune, large or small, and this minor
tragedy is no exception. The very first
consideration is to prevent the de-
| struction from increasing where it is,
and-equally mportant-from spread
! ing to other articles or garments now
intact To insure this it is necessary
to destroy moth eggs and larvae. For
this there is no better agent than
steam. 1t is an inexpensive and effec-
tive method of rendering the eggs
sterile and of killing the insects already
developed, and has the advantage of
being within the reach of any house.
wife.
Today the emphasis laid upon the
extinction of moths in articles of no
great size and an ingenious method has
been devised for doing it. This is by
means of colander placed over a
kettle of boiling water Wool baby
things, cashmere trimmings, garni-
lures, etc, are among the pieces of a
size to be given a steam bath in such a
receptacle.
1t is important to be sure that the
colander is free from rust and is made
as clean as If new, so that no discol-
Grafton will come from it. The heat
under the kettle of water should be
turned low after the water has reached
the boiling point, so that there is no
danger of its boiling away and expos
ing the materials to dry heat. It is
steam that destroys, while dry heat
helps propagation.
When the articles are taken from the
steam bath, which should last until
every part of each article being proc
essed is thoroughly permeated with the
steam, they may need to be pressed
Trimmings should be ironed on a soft
that the ironing is done on the wrong
side. Place piece of cloth over the
article, for wool ScorcheS quickly and
should be so protected.
Knit and crocheted articles, such as
infants SacqueS, socks, ETC., should be
carefully spread out on pieces of white |
cloth, so that they dry in correct shape. |
Some of the articles dry best on the !
tiny hangers made expressly for in !
fantS wear. If one has sock stretchers. |
the wee booteeS should be put over |
them. Do not dry these articles too |
rapidly nor in cold draught, lest they |
shrink
When the articles have been thus
steam proceSsed and dried they should
be put away carefully, wrapped in pa
per, so that no moths can get at them. |
Various agents are used to drive away |
moths. Pepper is excellent is sprinkled |
over the articles, and especially put in |
the folds and creaSes. It is important |
to keep moths away once the deStruc-
tive creatures have been successfully |
eliminated.

Placing The Blame

A cow emerges from the weeds that
grow along the right of way, and in her
dippy style proceeds to cross the road
before my dray. She shows no light,
she honkS no horn, she is inviting death
and wreck the traffic laws she laughs
to scorn, and so she gets 1t in the neck.
I hit her with my limousine, I smite
her with my tin sedan, and she will
never more, ween, pursue her reck-
less foolish plan. The spotted COW was
all to blame, but vainly do tell my
tale: the people cry at me For shame!
You ought to spend IL years In JAIL
You reckless drivers carry doom, you
fill the land with manned and halt, you
send fair creatures to the tomb, and
then insist you're not at fault. oh,
prithee look at this dead COW that lies
all mangled in her gore, then make a
stern and solemn vow that you will
drive a car no more" "Oh, prithee look
at my poor bus" / say to them in an
guished tones. "It'S up to me to raise
fuss, for / am out hundred bones.
The radiators rent in twain, the fen
derS smashed beyond repair; that cow
has ruined my old vain, and she is
dead and doesn't care" But not SYM
pathetic sigh is wasted on me in my
woe; there drips no tear from any eye,
some little charity to show. The driver
always is to blame, he evermore is in
the wrong, when his old tumbril climbs
the frame of any beast that drifts along.
However cautious he may be, he'll have
an accident In time, and men will say.
I'VE plainly see that reckless driving
is a crime. Oh, things have come to
such pass, to such a deadly pass,
indeed, we fear to turn our cows to
grass, lest they be slaughtered while
they feed" WALT MASON.

BEAUTY CHATS
Throat Treatments.

At the first sign of crepey throat, a
throat, that is, where the skin has
puckered up into a series of criss-cross
lines, treatment of nourishing cream
once a week should be made a habit
Fortunately, the throat is very easy to
treat, so easy that there Is never any
excuse for a middle-aged appearance.
Lanoline cold cream Is the most
nouriShing type of massage cream. To
make it, take three ounces of lard, the
pure white fresh lard which any good
butcher sells, and one and one-half
ounces of lanoline. These should be
melted until the lanoline has just
blended with the lard. Nine ounces of
rose water should be heated until tepid.
and level teaspoonful of tincture of
benzoin added. Then the rose water is
poured slowly into the melted fats, the
whole is stirred until it begins to cool,
and then it is poured of into jar.
This is very nourishing, since lano-
line is quite exceptional as a flesh
builder The benZoin is strongly sstrin-
gent and have put in quite a bit Of
it because / want this cream to draw
up the lax muscles and at the SAM,
time to nourish the skin.
The best way to apply it is to scrub
the neck first with hot water, soap and
a small hand brush, rinse with hot
water and then take a generous amolrt
of the cream and rub it all over the
throat. Rub and rub, and never mind
special massage motions. The harder
you rub the more cold cream you will
work into the skin. When you are
done bind up the neck by rolling strips
OF white cotton bandage (an old sheet
torn into strips three inches wide will
do). Wind this round and round the
neck until you have covered up the
cold cream. The cream should stay on
two or three hours at least. end 1t may

Today in
Washington History
BY DONALD A. CRAIG.

November s, 1864.-There Is more
than usual interest in this city and
throughout the Nation in the presi-
Dental election being held today, be-
cause Of the great Importance of the
issues at stake. The Evening Star ex-
plains the main issue from the Repub-
lican viewpoint, as follows:
Disguise the fact as politicians may
for their own purposes, there is no
denying that the fate of the Union
depends upon today's vote. Shall our
leaders in the cabinet and the field,
whose sole purpose is the suppression
of the rebellion and who have so nearly
completed the good work, be indorsed
and sustained, or shall the reins of
Government be given virtually to those
able abandonment of the contest but
who are scheming the disruption of
the North into petty confederacies on
the jeff Davis plan?
THAT is the plain issue. Not that
there are not patriotic men arrayed on
the side of the opposition, but that in
the event of the defeat of Mr.. Lincoln
and the election of Gen. Mcclellan the
men of the Wood and Vallandigham
stripe would be the ruling spirits and
would dictate the policy Of the admin
iStration.'
1t is declared by the adherents of
President Lincoln that the effort to
defeat him for reelection rs the last
throw Of the dice" with the Southern
Confederacy, and that "the imperative
necessity to the Confederacy of his
defeat is shown by the desperate ef-
forts" being made by friends of the
Confederacy in the North to elect Gen.
Mcclellan as President and turn out
Abraham Lincoln.
Although the residents of the Dis
trict of Columbia have no vote in ma
tional elections, they have been show
ing great interest in the present vital
campaign. Meetings have been held
by the Republicans, who have formed
themselves into Lincoln and johnson
clubs, and by the Democrats, who have
organized Mcclellan for President
clubs. There have been torchlight pro-
cessions and many public speeches.
It seems apparent that a majority
of the people of Washington and the
District of Columbia would vote for
Lincoln and johnson If they had the
opportunity, for the Republican meet
ings and professions have been much
more largely attended than those of
the opposition.
