It is not surprising that a great deal of intergst is felt in the pictures which are to be a feature of the 250th an- niversary Jubilee book—what they are to be and what they are to repre- sent. Portraits of the officers and chairmen of committees and the guests of the city will number a score or two and then there will be photographs of the decorated streets, the parade, the performances and objects of spe- clal interest, It is expected, will make about 50 pages. Where there are large semblages of people the pictures will be made large enough to make the identification of citizens possible. There are quite a number of these photographs which will be given a full page. ' It is the purpose of The Bulletin to make this book so attractive that it will be in prompt demand when it appears in December for delivery. The Bulletin has had submitted to it for examination about 200 photo- graphs already, and expects to have others submitted. The letterpress and the illustrations will represent the best part of the an- niversary celebration, and the book will be prized for its accuracy and value by Norwich people everywhere, Order ooks on the coupon to be found in The Bulletin's advertising columns. WHEN THE AGITATION STARTED. The agitation for postal - savings banks was started by Postmaster General Cresswell of Grant's cabinet in 1871. It has been recognized as @ good thing, but has been put upon the waiting list and has stayed there ever since. The Baltimore American calls at- tention to the fact that “when Banker James A. Gary of Baltimore became postmaster-general under McKinley he started out to make a postal savings system an established fact during his administration. At that time it was Lyman J. Gage, secretary of the treas- ury, who said, “Wait!” Mr. Gage dis- tinctly recognized the reasonableness of the demand for postal savings banks, but he held that the gold stand- ard first should be firmly established by statute. That has been done. The republican party and President Taft have promised the people postal-bank legisiation. But they are asked again to wait, this time until Senator Ald- rich can devise a plan for remodeling the national banking system. “This waiting game with reference to postal-bank legislation has been worked successfully for nearly forty years. It is time that the movement started by Postmaster-General Cres- well should bear fruit. A bill for the establishment in the United States of the postal savings system should be passed by congress at its next session.” WE CAN ALL HAVE ONE. There is Yomething csming to us from acroas the water beside that splendid $2,500 prize cup captured by Clirtiss, The aeroplane hat, a Parisian design, is expected to make its advent fn New York any day now when great exeltement among the ladies is to be expected. It is as shapeless and big is the largest in vogue of late. An sxchange says: “The world has mar- veled at female hats patterned affer wery concelvable shape from a coal- seuttle and peach-basket to a saw- Jorse and a sulkey-plow, and now that ‘he aeroplane hat is making its ap- searance it is only necessary to permit Hhe imagination to run its natural lourse to see what the future years re to bring forth. “As the seroplane hat will doubt- ess be furnished to customers all in- lated, primed, gasolined and ready for 186, it might be a wise precaution to lave guy-ropes attached to the rib- fons and the other end gecurely fa ened to the earth so as to avoid ac- idents upon those occasions when fomen are disposed to fly too high.” Here in Norwich we may witness Be triumph of this aeroplane hat long @fore we see the flying machines assing overhead. the joy riders can hope to do eroplane traffic is to run down ) another. Joy be with them. 'BEAR THIS IN MIND. The legal rate of speed for motor cut bridges is six miles an hour. Carriages are seen crossing these bridges every day at a greater rate of speed than this and we do not hear of many prosecutions, but some men who consider the law a dead letter are go- ing to be’prosecuted for violating it some day when they least expect to be. It is the part of wisdom to respect law and no harm was ever known to result from it; but taking chane along these lines results in fines for the few anyway, and the man who is often convinced that he is immune from prosecution is the one who some fine day is made an example of. “Be sure you're right, then go ahead,” is a safe motto for all auto drivers to bear in mind, 50,000,000 SOUVENIR STAMPS. The new stamp designed to memori- alize the Hudsdn-Fulton celebration will be eagerly sought by the stamp collectors of the country. This new two-cent stamp is to be placed on sale just prior to the opening of the cele- bration. The design is said to be ar- tistic and appropriate. The center shows the Palisades of the Hudson river in the background, with the Half Moon sailing up the river and the Vermont steaming in the opposite di- rection. In the foreground is an In- dian in a canoe, and in the distance a canoe containing four Indians. These stamps number about two to a family the country through and a large part of them are likely to find their way into stamp albums without seeing any service; and there is no doubt that the whole issue will eventually get into the hands of the speculators. As a postal department habit this is to be commended, for it places on record an evidence of the event which Is likely to be cherished for generations. THE TORPEDO TUBE VS. PORT HOLES. There have been lives enough sac- rificed since the invention‘of submar- ine boats, to have made the way of escape understood. The recent ex- periment of shooting Lieut. Whiting through the torpedo tube prompts the designers of the boat to show the most expeditious method of escape. By this plan one man must sacrifice his life, while by the other cvery man may escape from the sunken and disabled boat. An officer of the manufactur- ing company describes the futher ac- tion to be taken: As soon as the pressure fs equalized one of the men standing around the port takes his life preserver in his hand, looks his comrades in the eyes and taking hold of the edge of the port slides under the water and up inside the port. A touch upon the trap door makes it fly open and the sallor plunges upward through the trap while the door closes behind him. The air pressure is equal to the water pres- sure, 0 no air escapes and no water ‘enters. As soon as the first man has gone the second man follows exactly in his steps. He ducks under water and comes up in the port. The door fiies open and he plunges up to the sur- face. Man after man shoots up to the surface until no one remains in the submarine. If all else fails this method is safe EDITORIAL NOTES. Happy thought for today: A keen observer remarks that tears are not worth their salt. Spain is about to start her new navy with thirty-five million dollars worth of English made fighting ships. In aviation the Wrights were the pioneers, and that is a distinction which cannot be taken from them. Curtiss knows that those Frenchmen have got to follow him to America next year in order to win that cup back. When Harriman's health becomes uncertain the suspicion of his ability to make good gives his stocks a hard knock. Chicago claims that there §s not an- other city in this land that requires two general postoffices to meet its re- quiremente. The woman who said that she stole two shirt waists because she was hun- &ry had only the every day feminine taste for them. Tt is rather pleasing to New London county folks to think thatf the world is not booked to come to an end until after the county fair. An Ehglishman has risen at Win- nipeg to tell the people there that the United States leads the world in progressive education. Since we call the automobiles “autos” for short, will we not be call- ing these flying machines planes be- fore a year rolls round.

Where properly chartered the insignia rep- resents the colored fraternity. Attention is called to the fact that the Warbor of San Francisco can be mined in forty-eight hours. Since the 12-pound guns throw a projectile twenty-five miles, what good would that do. The leading physicians with whom Harriman is in consuitation say that the use of the knife has never been considered. Mr. Harriman's stomach demands that he shall respect it, and he will have to or his 'stomach will finish him, Tn 1908 purchases of Japanese por- celains, lacquers and bronzes by Eng- land, France, Germany and the United States decreased by $1.000,000.

The amethyst is the proper precious stone for the bride, and it can be pro- cured set in almost any way and in every imaginable piece of jewelry, even hatpins, belt buckles and neck- laces being ‘ablaze with the pretty stones. Furthermore, stockings, shoes, parasols and gowns have taken on the amethyst shade.

This letter hould be placed at one end of a towel, ditectly in the center, and about an inch to an inch and a half above the hem, while if used on a nap- kin it should be placed in one corner. The two Tetters 1007 are to be used for marking handkerchiefs and these should "be placed across one cogner.

It saves opening many boxes to find a particu- lar kind. Decorated china plates should be put away with round pieces of Can- ton flannel between them. A scratch on polished furniture can be almost obliterated by rubbing vig- orously with linseed oil. Plaster figures in hard or alabaster finish are casily cleaned by dipping a Stiff toothbrush in gasoline and scrubbing into all the crevices. Garments that are to be hun“out to air can be put on hangers rather than pinned to the line. This pre- vents sagging or marking with the clothespins. Bric-a-brac contalning mother-of- pearl should never be cleaned with soap and water. Instead, it should be rubbed with a cloth dipped into whit- ing and water. Salt mofstened with vinegar will re- move burnt marks from enameled saucepans and dishes, but don't for- get they should be soaked in cold soda water for a few hours first to loosen the stains, Never rinse lace in blue water with the idea of improving its color. Real lace should be finally rinsed in clear, soft iwater, or, better still, in skim milk, which will give it a soft, creamy color. Rice Croquette: Cook one scant spoonful of well- washed rice in one pint of milk and water until soft; add while hot a tea- spoon of butter, two tablespoons of sugar, the beaten yolk of one egg and enough hot milk to make soft enough to handle and shape. Cool, shape in ovals, put @ couple of boiled raisins in the center .of each, fold the rice over the fruit, roll in crumbs; then in the white of egg, again in crumbs and fry to a golden brown, DICTATES OF FASHION. Classie idoas are followed as much as possible in the arrangement of the coiffure, Flowers are more natural looking. No more pink lilacs, ‘hllck cowslips and blue roses. Bands in cotton embroidery. in pink, blue, Jayender or tan—the kind seen in men’s shop-made night shirts—are | pound of fresh ow being sold to decorate gingham smsuufdwmemn_nm. Some of the new shirt waists are stenciled in the most charming de-| signs and colors. Silver wheat is a fashionable hat trimming, and when mixed with feathery fronds of white plumage gives an effect most graceful and pretty. Pretty ties to finsh the lace collar of an evening dress are made of black velvet embroidered in imitation jewels in the proper color cheme. Matinees or evening sacks are, of anything, more in demand than the full-length negligees, for they are so c;n;;anient to slip on when one is tired. The one-piece dress intended for a walking suit can be made with a gir- dle, though the girdie should be made of soft satin, and if the dress has lengthwise plaits on it the girdle is slipped under and not over them. A serious rival to the tea gown is the loose house coat of net, lace or ninon. This is usually slashed open at the sides and heavily weighted with coarse lace, fringe or metal trimming to make it hang well. It is worn, of course, over a loose under-dress, and has the effect of a tea gown, affording at the same time perfect security from “sloppiness.” Pickled Peaches. Pour boiling water over the quanti- tr of peaches one wishes to pickie. With a coarse towel rub off the skins; put in a stone crock. Make a syrup of one quart of best cider vinegar to three parts of sugar; boll sugar and vinegar, skim and pour over the peaches three days in succession, Then on the fourth day drain off the Syrup: put a layer of fruit in fruit jars three inches deep, sprinkle over each layer bits of whole cinnamon and cloves, then another layer of fruit and slice until jar is filled. Put the syrup on to boil once more; add sev- eral sticks of cinnamon and a table- spoon of whole cloves. Pour boiling hot over fruit, taking care there is enough syrup fo fill the jars to over- flowing. Seal tightly. . Wiener Roast. One 2nd one-half pounds of round teak. one pound of veal, one-half ork, one onion, silce »f bfead one and a half inches thick, soak in water, two eggs, salt, pepper and nutmeg. Put meat and onion through meat chopper, add bread (squeeze water from it), and eggs. Season with salt, pepper, nutmeg, and mix thoroughiy. Form in loaf. Put a few pieces of salt pork on top and roast for three-quarters of an hour. Just before it is done, add a little water and three tablespoons of canned tomatoes for gravy; thicken a little with flour after meat has been re- moved. Serviceable Dresser Covers, Dresser covers of pique or Indian head cotton, buttonholed around the edge and boasting of the owner’s mon- ogram in raised embroidery in the cen- ter or at either end, are exceedingly dainty and serviceabie. Don’t Overcrowd. Don't overcrowd. Dom't be too or- nate for comfort. Don't fumble col- ors unless you want your home to re- semble a May pole. One tone alone is monotonous, and two that harmonize are perfectly safe, but many tones and units must be blended with the utmost car Don't mix woods. Mahogany, golden oak and ebony in ome room make a combination that has only utility to recommend it See that yvour pictures are well hung and suitably framed. Too many buy the pictures for the frame. Simple, dark wood frames for etchings or en- gravings, dull gilt for water colors or oil paintings and narrow lines of wood harmonizing with the darkest ome in the photograph are a good choice. Banana Bread Pudding. Mix one cup and a third of grated bread crumbs, one cup of sifted ba- nana pulp, the grated rind and juice of half a lemon and two tablespoon- fuls of melted butter. Beat one. egg and two yolks; add one-fourth a tea- spoonful of salt and one cup of milk, and when well mixed pour over the bread and banana mixture. Bake in a buttered pudding dish, in a slow oven until firm. Spread the top with cur- rant or other jelly and cover with a meringue made of the whites of two eggs and four level teaspoonfuls of powdered sugar. To make the mer- ingue, beat the whites dry, then beat in half the sugar, gradually, and fold in the other half. Return the pud- ding to the oven for about eight min- utes to brown the meringue. To Keep Scalp Healthy. To prevent scalp from getting into an unhealthy condition from being overheated, all cushions must be re- moved at night and the hair thorough - ly brushed and combed. Nothing will cause the hair to fall seoner than to keep the scalp warmer thanm it nor- mally is. But there is less danger from such a condition if the head is aired at night and restored to normal temperature. Leave the hair unbraid- ed and loose, but should this not be comfortable it may be confined in a plait, Under no circumstances is it to be twisted and pinned on the head again. Slumber Bags. Slumber bags of heavy wool in plain celors are replacing the steamer rug for deck use by many travelers. The bag laces up to the neck and is pro- vided with a hood. It is especially g00d for the convalescent. The Touch of Black. It is now the fashion to wear a black belt, a small black satin cravat and a black hat with a light-colored wash frock. It is also considered fash- donable to wear these accessories with a white duck skirt and batiste blouse. Coming? It is rumored that long coats may have their ~popularity challenged in the near future of the Russian blouse, for signs are not lackink that this old favorite is again to be brought forward. Examples of it have been seen in broderie Anglal and embroidered crepe de chin Hungarian Goulash. Three pounds of veal, cut into inch cubes, three large onions sliced, three large ‘potatoes diced, one-half_cup of water, one teaspoonful of salt, one- half teaspoonful of paprika, one-half teaspoonful of black pepper, one cup of butter or drippings, ome cup of cream. Put butter or dfln{mu in a kettle and when hot add the onions and fry, then add the veal and cook this until slightly browned. Put in the water and seasoning, cover closely and cook slowly until the meat is tender. Place the potatoes on top of the meat and cover again and cook until they are done but not broken. Lastly, add the cream and-cook for five minutes before serving. .
