'he man who fills his new Inoubater with cold storage eggs shows that he lacks experience. ‘The boy who can’t never yet made the man who can! That is something he must grow out of to succeed. A Wisconsin legislator has ventured to say that a suffragette is a woman who has failed to find her afnity. Isn't it strange that the bird Who has the greatest reputation for wisdom hangs around New England all winter? The annual cost of vagrants and tramps to New York is two millions a year, and they do not decrease in num- ber. There are a great many mean things that may be said about March, but one of them is not that it has five pay- days. A most fashionable rug is said to be decorated with two hemispheres and to resemble the illustrated page of a geography. Happy thought for today: Good advice is handed round free by a great many people who have never tried to live up to it. New York has decided not to legis- late profanity from the stage, since that would tend to mar some of the liveliest scenes. Oklahoma thinks that “The Miracle State” is a fitting sobriquet for her since she has in 22 years gained a pop- ulation of 1,700,000. Just the mistdke in the placing of a comma in the law gave the fish and game commissioner of Indiana $1,800 more a year salary. ‘Champ Clark is frank enough to say that he would not run away from a presidential nomination. He {s not like- ly to have the opportunity. The- question whether Rockefeller or the Goulds own the Missourl Pacific road is not settled yet. Mr. Gould seems, however, to be on top. ‘Where a London window will accom- modate ten persons on coronation day each can hold the position for $150. That makes a profitable window. They are about to increase the rev- enue in Germany by taxing the at- tendants of the moving picture shows. That is a system for taxing minors. A western man says he would be more inclined to dodge the big fist of a policeman when he saw it coming, than the flerce kiss of a suffragette. LETTERS TO THE EDITOR A Few Suggestions. Mr. Editor: You imply in your edi- torial today that the socialists of Mil- waukee are not doing all that they promised for the unemployeda They are planning to conduet 2 mu- nicipal dance, the procesds of which will be used to pay unemployed men to do work for the city. Two hundred thousand dollars is to be borrowed at once, if necessary, to give them all em- Ployment. An effort is to be made to empower the board of public works to g0 ahead with the ecity improvements at once and without comtractors. (I made such a proposition in a city meeting, when it was voted to build a dam at Bog meadow, and it was turn- ed down.) It has been further sug- ®ested that some of the men work six instead of eight hours per day, and more men be employed. How does this compare with what Norwich and other cities are doing for the unemployed? What are the gov- ernment by commission cities doing? I would suggest that Norwich might profitably, perhaps, employ an expert farmer to superintend the work of cul- tivating and otherwise improving land owned by the ecity, and thus furnish ne means of employing men out of ork and bensfit the city.

Dressing by System. One of the best dressed women In Paris has a rule that. she follows in, choosing her clothes which has made says a writer. Perhaps some girl whb is planning her spring outfit may profit by the recipe. Says.the clever one in the summer, another in the autumn and the last in the winter. In these gowns, too, I specialize. I let each represent a class. One year 1 will get a good tatlored sult, ap even- ing dress, a fine negligee, perhaps, and 50 61 Another year I will choose a morning gown, an afternoon frock, a dance dress and, of course, if neces- sary, heve some remodelling done to last year's wardrobe. In this way I have a good toilet for every occa- hen I spend the rest of my allow- ance on the smartest and best neck- wear, vells, gloves, stockings and other little' things that 1 can afford. These dress, et ceteras, if they are dainty and smart, count more for -effect in the long run than fine dresses without them. If you can’t have both, get plain or conmservative suits and dress- es and add chic and vary their monot- ony with littie things. Hats, veils, neck fixings and gioves have a lot to do with the smartness of ome’s ap- pearance. An expensive suit with the wrong_hat doesn’t look half so well 25 5 less contly: sult with the right aen White Serge Will Be in Vogue. The vogue for hairline materials of a few seasons past 41s repeating itself in the materials displayed for smart tailor-mades this spring. Black with white stripes, and white with black stripes, lavender stripes, blue and gray stripes are all shown and each Succeeding sample seen seems more desirable than the last. For the summer suit, howeyer, all white serge will be distinctly popular, although a better choice would be the serge with a faint stripe. From the merest hairline to stripes quite an eighth of an inch in width, the summer senrges afford a large fleld of choice. These white, or white and black suits, make a good cholce for the warm weather suits when one has two or three other spits to change about with, as the white serge is heavy enough to be worn comfortably on chill evenings and yet thin enough not to make one too heated. Generally a black collar, either of satin or velvet, relieves the white, and while the coat is padded it is devoid of interlining. Nor is the material so expensive, since a very good quality, 44 dinches wide, may be purchased for $1.25. The 54-inch width comes at $1.75, and per- haps in the end is the more economi- cal, since it will cut to better advant- age. Of the serges, that which shows a hairline of black is the most ser- viceable, since this does not show the soil like the all white serge. NOVEL INVENTIONS FOR THE HOME KITCHEN. Among the latest conveniences for the cook is.a quart jar of glass with a beater which screws on and may be used for cream, ‘and even to make fresh butter at home. In fact, it was planned entirely for this latter purpose. A new mayonnaise beater has made its appearance in the shops. It has a smalll funnel through which the in- gredients are poured, and which reg- ulates the dripping of the oil. A handle turns the beater without Mft- ing the cover from the bowl. A small knife grinder to screw onto the kitchen table j8 now shewn and will be hailed with delight by the oook. A measure to accurately determine quantities, put to four spoensful, is another novelty of the year. New casseroles of glazed pottery that combine usefulness with beauty are mow shown. They consist of a double dish, the inner one being used to bake in, and they set in the outer and more elaborate dish. Porcelain utensils, including every- thing from rolling pins to potato mashers, are now, on sale. They look pretty ed sailor collar of the material the little folks" and the materials with their different shades and new combinations will de- light the heart of the home sewer. Many of these little frocks show the sleeve and dress out in on one, ‘and, of course, .all show the short sleeve and low neck. Simple in pattern and ornamented with a bit of hand embroidery or a collar, they are easily laumder- and as easily made. Like her older sidter's blouse the meck of the lttle girl’s frock is often finished ‘with a of the frock, but more often of white Iinen or lawn, which can easily be removed and washed. Correct Way to Keep the Piano Pol- . ished. The softest possible duster should be used for the piano. A feather dust- er makes tiny scratches, and a piece of cheesecloth 'about a yard square— cut it; don’t tear it—boiled to ramove all sizing, is best. Don’t wash it or discard it when it is soiled; it all the ‘better. . If the varnish-blooms, fhe cause ig dampness’ or lack of ventillation. Bloom is the name for the opaque film which sometimes forms over fine var- nish. 5 Fresh air and sunlight may remove it, but washing may be necessary. If 80, use’ a soff, fine sponge, what is known sometimes as a baby sponge, with lukewarm water. Wash the piano carefully and dry i+ with the right side of a genuine chamois, soak- ed in water and wrung out just so it will not drip; a Httle practice will give the trick. Most polishes for sale in stores are unsafe. Vinegar or acid in them may eat out the life of ®#he ofl and cause cracks which will not appear until months later. The best way is to get a first ciass polisher to polish the piano, if it really needs it. If you must polish it yourself, use a little linseed oil diluted with tur- pentiae. ~ Jumper Waist Is Made from Chinese Kimono. An idea”evolved by a fashionable dressmaker in New York for a novel jumper waist to wear with the tail- ored suit for spring may readily be copied by the home needlewoman since the wonderfully lovely embroidered blouse is merely a short Chinese kim- ono put om baclkward. The rolling collar to the jacket is removed, and the neck cut round both back and front. Hooks and eyes and a few gathers at the walist line are all that are really needed to fluish this blouse, which should be worn over a lace guimpe. The Chinese kimones come in all colors beautifully embroidered with cherry blossoms, butterflies and iris, and their charm as _jumpers must be seen to be fully realized. Kerosene Has Many Uses in Kitchen. Kerosene has many uses in the kitchen besides being used -in the Jamp. One tablespoonful of kerosene added to a kettle of very hot water will make window panes, looking- glasses and picture glass bright and clear. Dip a cloth into the water, wring it dry and rub over the sur- face. Dried with a soft cloth, the glass will have a brilllant polish. Kerosene will clean the hands after blacking the stove. Bqueaky shoes are curéed by dipping the soles in kero- sene. ‘When ‘the sink becomes dirty a lit- tle kerosene will clean it effectually. FRILLS OF FASHION, Again among the smart spring tail- ormades the useful blue serge figures prominently. Every season We see these suits, but thelr popularity has in no wise lessened their importance in the well-dressed woman's wardrobe. One sees many abbreviated tunics ‘whieh reach just below the hips. These fall in a straight line from the should- er, and as they are used altogether on evening dresses are made of elaborate- ly embroidered net, or thickly studded with spangles. These, however, come in any from ‘the hip to the -ankle. - ‘The vogue of empire green in the little high-waisted frocks has brought this color to the fore In the line of parasols. Many of the most expensive parasols are entirely of this color,— handle, ribs, covering and all.

The present winter has been one of unusual ssverity in the regions of the Gul of St. Lawrence. Two government ice-breaker steamers went into service in the second weck of December last. The accumulated ice flves and bergs had hy the middle of February filled the strait and daily communication became impossible. One of these steamers, the Earl Grey, built two years ago in Great Britain at a cost of half a million dol- lars, especially for the Prince Edward Island winter service, has been unable teo er with negularity. This is due to the aceumulations of drifting ice fields, whigch, as a result of the shift- ing currents, overlie each other, at times presenting a solid pack, reaching from the bottom of the strait to 20 feet above the surface of the water. ‘Millions of fish are ground into noth- ingness by these moving masses of ice. —From Consul Frank Deedmeyer, Charlottetown, Canada.
