OUR AVOCATIONAL HEROES. 1: is not stwange that the life savers wicag the coasts and on the great lake shores do not like to be lauded as heroes, for with them heroism is a cally calling and what they get small ray for and no pensions. The life saving service rendered aid o 1.319 of the 1,376 vessels which met gisaster In the last fiscal year. The lives of nearly 9.000 persons were put in peril by these wwrecks, but thanks o the viglant guards only thirty lives wers lost. The report of the superintendent of e life saving service, just made pub- shows the work of the members of the stations has been broadened of ate. For example, the guards came o the help of five automobiles which had gone astray in marshes or were imperiled in quicksands. A woman ~about to be hurled over a bluft.” was rescued by a life guard single handed. A man who had fallen through the ice, another lost In & swamp, and a third =ho was intoxicated and about to roll from a wharf were restored to firm ground. Two persons who had climb- ©d 100 feet up the side of @ clff and could mefther go higher nor return| <wers saved, and a man, about to com- mit suicide. was persuaded to alter his intention. That men who risk thelr lives In such a service as this impair their Tealth and leave families when they Jose their lives deserve to be assured that they and those dependent upon them will be provided for, goes with- out saying it. It does seem as If these deserving men were as worthy of pen- sions as the soidiers. WU TING-FANG'S OPTIMISM. Minister Wu Ting-fang’s assurance of long life was obtained through the carrespondence school of dietetics con- @ucted by Charles Courtney Haskell orwich, prior to his being sent back 20 this country as & minister from China the second time. His declara- tion that he will return at the age of 116 28 a missionary for the dispensa- tion of = higher and better knowl- edge i3 based upon his faith in his | new mode of living. He proclaims that pure food. pure air and pure thought are the base upon which he founds Bis faith in longevity, and in pursuit of the pure food idea, Dr. Wu eats | no breakfast, and when noon comes Se takes his first meal, which Is what most of us would regard as a light | funch. It consists of corn flakes with | milk, & Sweet potato, three slices of | wheat br and butter, and | two apples. Such a meal, Dr. Wu In- | sists, contains all the requisites and sives great physical and mental pow- | er. And it must be admitted that thers is mo indication that Wu's diet tn 2ny way interferes with the process | -xhole t ‘long ago he i a grest deal of whiskey, but lald that aside, and he is now @welling upon a higher and more spir- itual plane, where one needs no alco- holic stimulants, He ssys we eat too much and don't | eat it properly at that.

There are thousands of others who are sustaining health and mental and Physical activity late In life by the strict observance of the simpler diet- ary and sanitary rules. A DEAR LAPSE OF MEMORY. | York manipulator of stocks | loss by forget- ting to attend to the second part of his speculative play. He ordered 50,- 000 shares of Rock Island at the mar- ket price through a broker and cre- ated the sensation he expected to. The stock climbed and went booming | 1aw, No. { tainly the | ant concernea mp from 49 3-4 to 81, and those who got into the swim bought low and | %04 high, and came out with a lot | of money to show for the experience. | The starter of the market forgot to | order his broker to sell and when it | was all over he found the old stock | worth about what he paid for it, and | #tiil subject to his order. when he could have sold it at the high tide he | had created and raked off $175.000. | This is where forgetfulness must have | had a poignance all its own. To have prepared the way for a bri nt achlevement in speculation, and to have failed to have reaped the benefit from lack of memory is not a common occurrence. Such an evidence of weakness must make a loser feel fool- ish even in his own estimation. HILL LOOKOUTS FOR FOREST FIRES.

The poet Robert Burns was of opin- jon that the perfect wife was made up of ten qualities.

The German empress owns most wonderful jewelry, and among her treasures are diamonds valued at a quarter of a million pounds, many ropes of pearls and other costly trin- kets. For all of these the kaiserin cares little, but she is very fond of a certain bracelet which she never al- lows to go out of her possession. This bracelet was a present from the kaiser and is composed of seven pleces, each of which contains a portrait of one of her children. In a heart-shaped locket attached to the bracelet is a miniature portrait of the kaiser himself. NEEDLEWORK ¢ VORK SUGGESTIONS. Paris Transfer Pattern No. 8.

A woman who formerly lived in Cal- ifornia and has boxes of oranges sent her every winter, after much experi- | menting, has found the best way to| keep them. When the oranges arrive they are carefully gone over and any that seem soft are removed for immediate use. The rest are wiped free of dirt and are carefully buried In a clean sand in a box that Is deep enough to hold several layers. Care must be taken in packing that the oranges do not touch one another and are completely surrounded by the sand. The box is then put in a cool, dry place where there is danger neither of_frost nor of overheating. If no dampness gets in the box or- anges so’ kept will not only last all winter, but have kept well on into the summer, when the fruit is scarce. WASHING WOOL SOCKS. To prevent shrinkage, the safest plan is to dry the socks on frames. These can be bought cheap at the notion counters in the department stores. To wash, make a warm suds with water and white soap, adding a little borax. Lay the socks in this bath and keep squeezing through the hands. Do not rub on a board and do not apply soap directly to the socks. Soap has a tendency to mat together the ljittle hairs that stand up on any woolen goods. Rinse in warm water, adding borax, and place on frames or hang to dry. Shape with the hands while drying. LACE PIECES. Small lace pieces of one kind and another have a place this season among all dress trimmings. The small— est plece may enhance a new collar, the largest may build the foundation of a gown, but everything which can be_used iS put into service. If vou have coarse pleces such as berthas, ready-made yokes or cuffs and collar NEEDLEWORK NOTES. Bullion stitch works in effectively on embroidery for gowns. The makig of iae is o pleasant as well as a fashionable pastime. Richelleu embroidery is one of the lovellest of the different forms of cut wor] A dainty centerpiece was embrolder- ed in jonquils and feathery sprays of ‘maidenhair fern. ¢ Irish crochet roses appliqued on a band of filet net make a dainty and effective trimming for a party gown. A dashingly effective Japanese motif is a great dragon embroidered solid with satin stitch and large clusters of French knots. In cutting the yokes for waist and skirt cut them first of some other ma- terial than that of the frock, fit them exactly and then cut the yokes of ma- terial from these. Ruffles, though scant ones, begin at the hem of the dress and it fakes nine short ones to complete the entire skirt to the edge of the embroidered cuirasse. When a tablecloth becomes too worn for use the good parts may be cut up in numerous little trays and doilies. Edged with cluny lace they are dainty as well as exceedingly useful. Home-made pillow cases should have the selvage torn from the material, then overcast. This makes pillow cases much smoother and they will not wrinkle along the seam. Cut the sel- vage from napkins to give @ neater turned edge. DICTATES OF FASHION. Silk blouses are severe. The sleeves are flat, with little or no fullness. Flat jet ornaments, as well as those of metal, are frequently used as trim- ming. The vogue for gilt is now at its height, and silver trimming is also in demand. Tasseled ornaments and fringe vie Twith cach other for chlef favor in trim- ng. Except when the brim is turned over in front, very little of the hair is shown. Some of the new bracelets encircle the wrist and end in a tiny jeweled bowknot. Coats are a bit closer than the half fitting ones of the past season, and skirts are usually plaited. Bows on shoes are more in evidence than ever before. In fact, there are bows and bows and bows this season. A fetching suit was of canard blue homespun, with the jacket, sleeves and hem outlined with ‘a fine band of skunk fur—which, by the way, is the leading fur of the season for everyday wear. Braiding upon coats has lost none of its vogue and all manner of original results are gained by its combination with silk cordings, rattail buttons and made ornaments. A simplé and becoming little frock for a golden haired damsel is of green chiffon embroidered at the hem in a stunning Egyptian design, in dull met- als. The sleeves and bodice are of the embroidery and the tucker of old rose point lace. Where drapery s mostly seen it of- fers many pleasing suggestions for using embroidered mets. In the wide empiecements the goods can be used in short apron effects. Small pleces, of course, will be needed and can appear as bodice edging and sleeve trimmings. DAINTY SANDWICHES. There is no edible more convenlent and generally acceptable at litle parties of various sorts than the sandwich, but inexperienced persons make the mis- take of using only heavy meats and one kind of bread. To be the delecta- ble ard comfortable morsel it should be, the sandwich supplied for the gala occasion must express the utmost sophistication of taste, and the fillings and bread casings should be varied as much as possible. ‘White. gluten, graham, brown and rye bread are all used for the dainty bites given at smart functions: with cheese, soda and salt biscuits are com- bined, and filling_ of whipped cream and nuts is put between sweet crack- ers. At a tea lately given there wero even sandwiches of brown bread filled with a paste of baked beans, the whole | made gav to the eye and fascinating | to the palate with a shredded cover- | ing of pimentoes.

One novelty in the batistte depart- ment is a combination of corset cover, | skirt and drawers. Two legs of mam.- moth width are sewed to the skirt some inches below the hip, this device doing away with extra fullness at the point where it is o necessary for wom- en to be slim. Pale blue and white, red and white and violet and white are the colors seen in this lovely under- wear. Garments for traveling and motoring of soft finished pongee in natural ¢ni- ors.

Velveteen is a fashionable and prac- tieal material for the long dressy coat. Prune colored cloth, with long tles, and gold ornaments make a handsome theater cloak. Black still Indicates that it means to rule in tailor as well as in afternoon gowns. New winter materials are rough for street and crepe and dull finished for the house. Stripes prevail in the latest French flannels, and some of them are highly effective. Colors are the same in names as last vear, but this season they are of duller hues. Every well fitted wardrobe will have a black suit or costume of some sort this season. Some lovely oxidized gold, silver and pewter embroideries are available for the adornment of reception and even- ing gowns. STALE BREAD. A loaf of stale bread can be wrapped in a wet towel, placed in a steamer and steamed tender. Cold biscuits left from breakfast can be toasted. Or a good method is to hastily dip them into water, place In a bread pan and heat in the oven. Very old bread should be ecrumbled and added to breakfast cakes and serv- ed with maple syrup. O1d bread, broken into small pleces dampened with milk makes a good pud- aing, placed In alternate layers with tart apples. Dot with butter, cinna- mon or nutmeg, sweeten, cover with milk and bake. Tray crumbs should be rolled with crackers to use In making croquettes. An old bread crust, known as the heel, is useful for cleaning a vegetable grater.

A Reverse Si Mr. Editor: A little card published for distribution at the New Year has lately fallen into my hands. This set: forth in glowing terms the delights of the closing vears of life, without even hinting that there may be a reverse side to the picture. Now, T am not saying the sentimant is not 'm beautiful one, and ought not to be diligently cultivated, but when one thinks of the lifelong honors and emoluments which have fallen to the lot of the author, and the hosts of worshipping friends left to him at the age of 75 years, does it not seem rath- er a mockery to the many poor and friendless who have reached old age, and, having outlived both children and friends, have nothing but sorrow, ani perhaps want in prospect for the rest of tacir lives?

To those who are not aware of the fact, I will say that the entire appropriation was granted for the removal of that ledge; but our for- mer street commissioner In one of his genlal(?) moods cut that appropria- tion in half. Immediately after the Polish society asked for a grade and street through their property, and it was granted and finished at once. Meanwhile we were side tracked and have been in that state ever since. Call that justice? If I owned that ledge, the city would oblige me to re move it. I don't know as any of us can write M.D. or M.C. after our names; we are just plain, éverday kind of people; but one thing is sure, we are neither too penurious nor 0o pov- erty stricken to pay for a walk in front of our property. And we want that walk almost to a man, and want it bad. Locomotion is getting wor all the time, and property will neither sell nor rent under existing conditions.
