Cleared of Rats, It Does Very Well at a Rent of 25 Cents a Year, Twelve years ago, when the vil- lagers living off the borders of Rei- gate Heath, Surrey, England, had no place of worship nearer than the par- ish church, a service was held in a school room close by and was so well attended that the authorities looked around for a suitable permanent build- ing. The erection of a church was’out of the question, but there stood on the heath the remains of an old mill, a picturesque feature in a beautiful bit of landscape. Inspection showed that once the rats were got rid of a com- paratively small outlay would furnish and render the mill fit for public wor- ship, and soon it was opened as the Chapel of the Holy Cross, The interior of the chapel arouses interest, says the Wide World Maga- zine. Four buttresses, four feet thick by six feet in height, serve as rests for two massive beams which cross each other in the center and support an upright shaft cracked with age and strongly bound with iron bands. The buttresses make four natural alcoves. The entrance door stands in one, and immediately oppo- site is the altar; the harmonium is placed in a third, and the bell ringer sits close beside it and rings his bell; the fourth is occupied by the congre- gation. The rent of this novel church is only 25 cents a year. night. But he’s back in again this ‘WE PAY 10c, 12c ee price for wool. Sell ity dip cheap. N. W. Hi ide-& Fur Co., Minneapolis, Minn.

Cured by Cuticura In Three Weeks. “At first an eruption of small pus- tules commenced on my hands.

The awful itching interfered with my work considerably, and also kept me I tried several doc- tors and used a number of different ointments and lotions but received Finally I set- tled down to the use of Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Ointment and Cuticura Pills, with the result that in a few days all itching had ceased and in about three weeks’ time all traces of my eruption I have had no trou- H.

Laughter Seldom Heard in the Uproar —Sounds of Tomtoms and Big Shells. Among the African natives. there can be nothing done without noise, according to William B. Clarke of Pittsburg, Pa., who has traveled ex- tensively in Africa. “It is simply appalling, the rush, the roar, the chatter and the bustle, like Bedlam let loose,” Mr. Clark said. “The principal object of conversation is said to be money, and the hubbub, pawling and uproar in all sorts of tones from shrill and screaming to gruff and growling, accompanied by all sorts of gesticulations with tongue, head and feet, are beyond description. “It igs rather odd, but laughter is almost never hearg in this uproar; and, as for whistling, it is a lost art. If there are any quarrels they are not to be heard in public, although when a company of natives get to carry on an animated conversation it appears if the next act to the observer as would be a melee. “In addition to these miliar to the traveler. and a kind of pipe about eightee inches long, with holes like those of a flute, and breathed through in a way that produces a variety of notes wild, discordant character.

Aim at elegant simplicity. Do not make the mistake of thinking simplic- ity means cheapness; it is usually a costly luxury, but one that pays. Avoid litter, gimcracks and over- crowding. Learn to appreciate space as apart of the furnishing. Many women only regard it as something to be filled, no matter with what. To hide the carpet with furniture, the walls with pictures, sofas and chairs with pillows and mantels and tables with ornaments, regardless of taste or suitability, is not furnishing a Intense—| ome; it is stocking a junk heap. Apart from the inartisticness of the overloaded house, the discomforts of keeping it clean makes it anything but liveable. Why should a woman wish to pass her days dusting useless orna- ments that detract rather than add to the beauty and whclesomeness of your home? Certain houses are furnished with a simplicity that is studied almost to the point of ostentatiousness and arti- MEANS COMFORT ON THE CAR. Convenience Especially Designed for Traveler on Journey of Some Length. The case for a cushion, of which we give a sketch, is designed for the trav- eler. On each side a roomy pocket is arranged in which newspapers and other little things, essential at the time of taking a railway journey, may be carried, and be ready to hand when required, without the fear of their be- ee ini | 2 as ing mislaid or lost. The case may be made in art linen or, perhaps, dark green art serge and lined with soft silk. Firmly stitched on to the top of the flap is a small handle made of the same material that has been used for the case, and stiffened with a thin piece of cardboard, by which the car- rier can be held. Should it be intended to carry any- thing valuable in the pocket, such as a purse or notes for instance, then it is a good plan, and very easily done, to fit flaps above each pocket, that can be buttoned .on to the lower part and so secure the contents from the possibil- ity of falling out. CHANGE IN THE BUST LINE. Newest Styles Show a_ Lowering, Largely Due to Form of the Latest Corset. The newest styles show a lowering of the bust line that again recalls the fashions of two or three years ago, when the low-cut corset was so fashionable. The long corset, designed to make the wearer abnormally slender, almost invariably gave the high bust effect, but this was never popular, and evidently the corset mak- ers have at last evolved a corset to meet all requirements. The longer line from shoulder to bust is so much more graceful, and a waist cut ac- cordingly is so far more becoming, dressmakers are only too glad to wel- come the change, although they were beginning to do wondrous things with the flat trimmings, regardless of the line of bust. Straight cassocklike pieces of trimming are not new. The fashion was inaugurated several months since, but there are many new ‘ways in which it is carried out. There are many designs in heavy embroid- ery and lace woven especially for this fashion, but some dressmakers prefer to copy the style by folds or plaits of the material or, as in the case of a figured material or foulard, with bands of the plain, and the ef- fect is delightfully smart. Cut Flowers with Knife. It is an excellent plan to cut the stems of flowers with a sharp knife rather than with the scissors. Scissors compress the stems and so close some of the tiny pores to the life-giving water. ficiality; crowding. What the average householder needs to learn is that a beautiful home con- sists of not how much you can put into a house, nor yet in how little, but in having an eye for proportion, unerring taste as to what is in keeping and the nerve to throw away your most pre- cious possession if it disturbs the har. mony of your house beautiful. CHILD’S LINGERIE HAT. but better that than vulgar A most bewitchingly pretty lingerie hat for a small tot is made of a fine quality of embroidered linen. The crown is of fashionable size, large and of an even roundness, and the brim droops prettily over the hair and face. The finishing touch is given by the large, soft ties of sheerest lawn, which are tied in a loose bow under the chin a little to the left. CROSS-BAR MUSLIN POPULAR Many Good Reasons Why Material Is Preferred Above Others for the Lingerie. There is a late fad for cross-bar muslin—and not for kitchen curtains, sewing aprons or plain shirtwaists, either, but for the corset cover-panta- loon combination garment. It is ex- ceedingly fine in quality, though not a dimity; called “muslin,” it is really a plaid nainsook. It is an English custom to use it for men’s underwear, and it is but a recent entry into the field of woman’s wear—probably wedged in there for its durability. Sheer material with a heavy thread in the weave wears twice as long—why shouldn’t it? And there are makers of lingerie who sing its praises on the score of its obligingly trimming itself. Certain it is that any figured or flow- erede material will pass muster with less embroidery on it than plain mus- lin, yet the design of embroidery wan- dering over the plaid is a very Frenchy touch, and not to be talked down. Needle and Thread Always Ready. There is no truer saying than “a stitch in time saves nine,” and the woman who appreciates this knows that a rip in a glove, a tear in a waist, or any little bit of mending that will only take a minute or two to do if it is done when the need first ap- pears, will probably take half an hour or more if it is Jeft for a day or two. Every woman would do well to run a piece of baby ribbon through a spool of white and a spool of black thread and then tie the ends of the ribbon together and hang the spools up some- where near her dresser. A _ needle should be threaded on the end of each color of thread and then stuck in the ribbon.. There will always be a thread- ed needle ready for instant use. The needle should be threaded after using it each time. A little good toilet water or cologne poured into a bath is delightful in its effects. If your heart is weak do not indulge in showers, and be careful to temper the water, no matter how strong the heart. Wherever there is an inconvenient hollow a gentle massage with cocoa butter will soon fill it up, and it is the purest and best of skin food. ‘ An excellent household remedy for purns is pure vaseline or olive oil.
