The fifth annual report of the New i Héven county Anti-Tuberculoss as€o- clation, which is just published, shows most satisfactory results. In three years the number of patients at the GAylord farm sanitorium have been nearly trebled and the resuits are most assuring. Dr. Lyman says of the worl “The after-results of any sanitorium furnish the ctitérion by which its work may be judged, and I feel that we have cause to be deeply sratified with ours. We have, by cofitinued ef- fort, kept closely in touch with all our old putients, and know the history of all but =even of the 374 patients who left us bstween September, 1904, and January 1, 1909. We have discharged 76 inelplent cases. Sixty-three of these are at work with the disease uhde thorough contre The same obtains for 115 of our 203 moderately advanced and 11 of our 91 far advanced. 1In other words, of the patients who have been away from the sanitorium from six months to four and a half 3 $2.9 per cent. of the inciplent, 56.6 per cent. of the moderately advanced, and 12 per cent. of the far advanced ave actively at work and with the dis- cage under control. . These results have especial value when ome consid- ers that contrary to the tual rule it has been ouf custom wherever possible 1ot to send our patients out to search for the traditional ‘1ight, out-of-door employment, but back to work thes were doing when they came. We can now point to graduates who have for the pest three and four years been steadily employed for eight to ten hours daily in factories and offices in many of our larger towns, and show by our records that in spite of our bioaa interpretation of our rules as re- #ards the admission of advanced cases for temporary cure and training, more than onehalf of all patients who have ever bren at the Gaylord farm, regard- iess of condition on admission or leagth of stay, are now actively em- ployed and with their disease under centrol. “fbese results could never have Leen attained save through the inter- ested co-operation of those who have Leen associated with me in the run- ning of the institution, and our thanis are due not only to those who have #0 ably seconded our efforts in the medical department, but to every one of those employed about the institu- tion for that personal interest in the place and its work which has enabled us to reach our present development The report of the finance committee shows that the receipts for the year were $74,662.06, of which the state of Connecticut furnished $7,500, general contributions $11,023, Mrs, Lucy Hail Boardman $18 the Lucy P. Wade legacy $1,120.58, Prof. and Mrs. Will- fam Beebe $5,381.25, patients $18, 886.12.

It Is dlscreditable to the in- genuity and progressiveness of New England farmers that such a large part of the choicest market hereabouts is monopolized by apples grown 3,000 miles away, in Washington and Ore- gon. The reason why appies produced on the Pacific coast find stch an im- portant market in New England is that 5o apples are all standardized, they .are made to bewiteh the eye, the growers study to get the best results, and the orchards are carefully at- tended to. It is a blunder worse than & crime for New England farmers to neglect the opportunities lying under thelr noses and to surrender without @ struggle the apple market right at their efbows.” Connecticut can be made as famous .« for its apples as it is for its tobaceo, U\ _and seed corn, and various other su- “ Sperbly cultivated and grown products .

Those citizens who have neglected to honor themselves by paving poll and military taxes as required by law must have a care since future con- duct of the same kind miay bring to them dishonor and disgrace. The old law'had no teeth in it and there was no peril in violating its pro= visions, but the new law makes each sident between the years liable to crim- | and egery male | ages of 21 and 60 inal prosecution for tax dodging, un- less legally exempt from such pay- ment.

A very useful gift for the tiny baby 1s the white flannel shawl or blanket. A squaré of the white flannel 1§ bound with wash ribbon. A band of feather- stitching ebout an inch in from the bindiug I8 a very pretty finish. This featherstitehing may be parallel with the edge or slightly curved. If curved, a lazy daisy design worked.in each of the curvés does mot take uch more time and is a decided addition. Some of the shawls are still further embel- lished with a design in one corner. Tf one does not care to bind the edge, a hem may be turned and buttonholed of featherstitched into place. The handwork may be done in white or in pale pink or blue. The mercerized cotton will answer quite-as well as the silk and is léss expensive. Silk _and Wool Mixtures, ‘The silk and wool mixtures are quite to the froht this season for gowns of all deSeriptions. Those of a diagonal weave and woven with & twill sug- gestive of a serge are decidelly smart. Material for Knick-Knacks. In the makig of inexpensive Knick- knacks and souvenirs crepe paper is A boon. The daintiest little conceits may be fashioned of this paper, All that is necessary is time, patience and some ipgenuity on the part of the worker, who provides herself with a little paste, wire and pieces of paper of difterent hues and desisn. A piece of heavy cardboard & foot long, earefully covered with the paper, finished with a frill of the materlal af either end and provided with g cord of the paper for hanging, makes a serviceable and sensible tie-holder. A tiny tin baking powder box, cut down to the ptoper height and covered with frills of the paper makes a holder fot matches. The tin box, full height, art- istically covered, will answer for hold- ing_pemeils on the desk or for hatpins and hairpins on one's dresser. Bonnets for dinner favors and scar- let bags in numerous styles may be evolved from the paper. Eha's Veal ‘Wash and trim the veal. Fry brown in a hot spider, With butter.” Let it remain in the spider. Season with salt and pepper. Sift dry flour over it and then cover with cold water. As soon_as it holls cover it and place it oh the back of the stoye to simmer about an hotr. The veal will be ten- der and the gravy brown and deliclous. Allover Figured Silks. Silks which have allover figures woven into the fabric have their own special name this season. TFaconne js what {hese designs are called. Orange Marmalade.

HARDY BULES. As a class of lawn embellishers there is nothihg to equal hardy bulbs. They come into bloom at & season when there are no other out of door flowers. They hérald the coming of _spring. Hardy bulbs for spring blooming must be planted in the fall. October is the great bulb planting month, although good results may be attalned from early November settings. Bulbs do not require a very rich soil. In fact, nd stable manitre should be used in the soil at planting time. Wood ‘ ashes, bone meal or complete comtmercial fer- tilizer may be used in its stead if the soil where the bulbs are planted s of poor fertility. In spading the earth, root it up to a considerable depth ar imake the soil as fine as possible. The entire bed should be a little higher than the surrounding surface and the middle of the bed ought to be higher than the outside to give the structure good drainage. Lines should be drawn through the 8oft earth to mark the rows before planting. Thé bulbs aré set from two to ten ifiches apart and from one to six inches deep, according to the size and variety. After the planting has been done no further at- tention.need be given until the ground begins to_ freeze over from the cool nights. Then a mulch of leaves, straw, long manure 6r other like material should be placed over the surface twn or three ifiches deeg. Every home gar- dener should have his bulb bed. Bulbs are low in price and high in value. They ate within feach of the masses, and may the masses plant them with a free hand. NEW TRIMMING. (7 vl Iridescence, weight and a flle béau- ty are combined in a new trimming which simulates the color and mark- ings of a snake. Gray net is used for the foundation, upon which gun metal beads are woven in such a way that a mottled effect results. The lines of beads cross in irreguldr diagonal stripes and fairly scintiliate in the lights and shadows. 1t is wonderful when used With gray of green, and promises a safe fascination to ali who gaze upon it. A scarf in which a broad band of this new snakeskin is incor- porated would effectively entwine white shoulders or arms. It -is cause for wonderment that a sifitous snake has given inspiration to the maker, and with an artistic eye the beauty has been retained while all else has been eliminated. MOIRE BLOUSES. Moire has invaded the realms, of the blouse; supple moire, which is lus- trous and lends itsélf to graceful adaptations in tailored designs is, of course, the material being meant. The watered effect gives generally enough ornamentation and allows extreme sim- plicity of line in the making of the waist. It is sometimes decorated with cable, which is covered with the same material. But this fabric loses if treat- ed in elaborate style. One new moire blouse is 1aid in two deep plaits over the shoulders. The left front Is lapped over the right and fastened-in a point, which is decorated with an ornament of silk-covered cord —the only trimming besides the ecru guimpe that fills in the open space at the neck. Pepper Hash. Pepper Hash: Shred a solid head of cabbage as for cold slaw., Make layers of it in a large stone crock with a cupful of salt. Let it stay twenty-four hours, then drain off all the brine. To each quart of cabbage allow two red pepper pods, chopped fine. Pack in glass cans, cover with strong vinegar and seal tight. Indian Rélish, Indfan Relish: Chop very fine six quarts of green tomatoes, six large onions, a large head of cabbage and two celery heatts. Put on the fire and cover with strong cider vinegar. Add_a tablespoonful each of pepper berries, whole cloves and crushed cin- namon, all tied in a plece of cheese- cloth. Als6 add a cupful of mustard seed, half a cupful of celery seed, half a cupful of salt and three-quarters of a cupful of sugar. Simmer these in- gredients slowly until the tomatoes and cabbage are tender, rémove from the fire, pack in wide mouthed bottles and seal at once. English Chutney. English Chutney: Put through the food machine one pound of apples, weighed after peeling and coring, three-quarters of a pound of seeded raisins, one dozen ripe tomatoes, two red peppers, six small onions and u guarter of a cupful of mint leaves. Put these ingredients in a large stone crock and add to them an ounce of white mustard seed, four ounces of salt, a pound of granulated sugar and three pints of vinegar. The vinegar should” have been Bolled and coofed, Stir oncé a day thoroughly for ten days in succession. Thén it may be packed in glass cans and put away for the winter. Paper Dish Tow Paper dish towels may be had by the ream for a smull sum. A house- keeper who uses them says they are most satisfactory if used intelligently. The dishés must be very carefully rinsed and the hands should be quite dry before the towels are used. With the dishes well ‘rinsed the towels do not become Soiled soon; this makes it posgible to dry them and use them a second time. Cabochons on Hoods. Scmesof the auto hoods have most alluring cabochones of velvet, silk or satin at either side, quite suggestive of the rosettes on a buby's bonmet. As in the case with the infant head cov- ering, the hood strings are sewed ufi- der these ornaments. g Sy Furs from Head to Foot. Bonnets or of fur will be worn this winter. With 4 fur hood the largo fur gauntlets, a neck piecs boasting of many heads and tails, a muft of huge proportions and a fur garment, “Mourning Jewelry.” ¢ The fashion of wearing omyx when in mourning is aining more and more.

The question of prizes at a card pars ty is generally settled by the amount of money the hostess—or the chib— can spend for each one. But even if a dollar is the limit of the amount to bé spent, the experienced ‘shopper” has a good deal of variety to choose from. However, with a dollar 1imit, a wom- an who is clever about making some- thing dainty from a bit of lace or muslin, can attaln better results than she who has to get something ready~ made. With present styles, when dainty neckwear means so much 1o every woman, surely no more attrac< tive prize could be won than a box containing two or three pretty jabots —embroidered, lace edged or hem- stitched, according to the skill and de~ sire of the maker, Pretty silk or muslin work bags are alfo always acceptable. The worker In raffia can fashion a flat bottom of two contrasting colors, buy a yard and & half of rich colored oriental silk, and have es the result of her pains a really ‘beautiful bag. Among the things that may be botight for a dollar are books, hat pins, after dinner coffee spoons, boxes con- taining playlng cards and tally sheets, handkerchiefs and many other dainty little gifts. 1f you live mear an old brass shop you can pick up real bargains in the way of tea boxes, fern dishes, candle- stands and lamp shades, at about half the price you would pay. elsewhere, for prices ranging from 50 cents up. For $2, of course, the range of pos- sible prizes Is widened. At that price a good pair of plain silk stockings may be bought, or a simple kid or leather card case, or a_silver pen or pencil, a small framed print—if you are sute all your' guests will like it—a photograph case, or a small piece of china. And as the prize increases in money value the list Includes hand bags, sunshade enaameled veil and collar pins, smal plces of silver and almost all of the things dear to feminine eyes. But the real problem of prize buy- ing comes when men's prizes must be bovght. Men don't as a rule like “home-made things most of them have a good supply of silver pen= knives and leather card cases which “loving relatives have been giving them on birthdays and Christmases. and it is really a task to know what they will like. An_expensive pack of cards isn't a bad choice among the sompler prizes for men. A good book, with an ex- change slip enclosed, is another ac- ceptable prize. Then'there are all the attractive desk articles, made of nick— ¢l and glass, that range in price from $1 to $10 apiece. A silver pencil isn' out of place, for really a man could us two or three of these. A $3 pencll, shown by one famous jeweler, could- n't fail to please the most fastidious. The pencll fits In a flat, wide case three or four inches long, point or era- ser end out, as you choose. The case is of dull silver, and on it in relief are shown a diminutive easy chair, below it a pair of slippers, then a tobacco pouch and pika, and last of all a niece fat pocketbook. In some card clybs, which meet ev- ery fortnight, a good plan of giving the same thing at each meeting is adopted. For instance, in one of these clubs the first prize has for several years been a dessert plate. These plates are all painted by the same per- son, and are all decorated with flow— ers; but no two are exactly alike, One lucky member of the club has almost a round dozen plates mnow, a really beautiful set.
