A SFETY LADDER FOR CHIMNEYS.
Prevents a was From ns Blows rrom
His Footing.
Anyone who has ever noticed the
construction of one of the very high
chimneys sometimes seen towering
over an industrial plant of some sort
could not help but to imagine himself
in the position of the workman who
must at more or less frequent intervals
climb up and down its preciptious side,
clinging to the tiny iron projections
placed for his accommodation. ' In
the construction of a chimney now
being erected at Syracuse for the
Solvay Process Company, a new idea
in the erection cf the ladder is being
put into effect, as shown in the ac
companying cut. William B. Cogswell. tan
the vice-president and chief engineer
of the company, is in a measure re- ton
sponsible for the innovation, or at has
least for its introduction, into this
country. He was traveling abroad a
short time ago, and while passing cr'
through a part of Germany noticed
this style of ladder construction, and
at once recognized the merits of it
and made a note for future reference.
The idea is for the man to get
inside of this ladder, where he is
much more secure than in the more
exposed position outside of an ordin
ary ladder. The wind is often very
strong in such an elevated place, and
a greater effort is required to hold on
than to climb aloft.
In making an ascent of a tall chim
ney the man can at any time rest him
self completely by standing with both
feet and his elbows upon the rungs
of thq ladder at the same time, or
he can put his arms over the rungs
at any time, or if he likes can have
a piece of plank thirty inches long with
him, which he can put across one of

the rungs and stand upon, thus mak- e
e ing himself perfectly secure while a
working. d
e While at Syracuse the ladder is ap- Z
Splied to a brick chimney, there is no c
reason why simlar ladders should not c
e be applied to steel plate chimneys, a
. water works' standpipes or any other 1
t lofty structures to which ladders are t
attached.

Why to Advertise.
In the great mass of Irrelevant mat

more succinct and logical presentation t
of "why to advertise," has never been j
put before possible patrons than the
following from the Toronto Monetary
Times:
"Just this
"It makes work easy.
"It enriches one's purse.
"It ensures peace of mind.
"You feel that it is working when
you are not.
"It imparts knowledge.
"It satisfies one's desires to make
himself known.
"It affords an opportunity to get
back at a competitor in a gentlemanly
way.
"It creates a demand.
"It develops one's ideas.
"All these things and many more
of result from advertising."

ut thoroughly that addition or emenda
tion are alike superfluous.

woman and always find a place. The
attractive May Manton model illus
trated is suited to dimity, batiste lawn
and the like, and to such light weight
wools as cashmere and albatross, but
in the original is made of white lawn
with frills and bands of needlework.
The fronts are tucked to yoke depth,
then allowed to fall free and form
folds, but the back is laid in pleats
that are stitched in tucks and produce
a tapering effect. At the neck is a
sailor collar and the sleeves as shown,
are tucked and in elbow length, but
the pattern also includes those of full
length that are cut in slight bell shape.
To cut this jacket for a woman of
medium size four yards of material
twenty-seven or thirty-two inches
wide, or two and a half yards forty
four inches wide will be required, with
four and a half yards of embroidered
bands and seven yards of edging to
trim as illustrated.

ribbof held b7 small jeweled buttons,
but the design lends itself to silk and
soft wool fabrics as well as to all the Il
dainty cottons and linens with equal e
success. b
The foundation is a fitted lining that b
closes at the centre front. On it are I1
arranged the round yoke, the full un- f
der porticn and the graceful bertha. d
The yoke clcsing at the left shoulder p
extends to form a narrow vest that v
closes under the lcft front. The sleeves a
are in elbow length, terminating with a
flaring cuffs, but can be extended to r
the hands. a
To cut this blcrse for a woman of I
medium szae one and a half yards ctf
material twcnty-one inches wide, one I
and a half yards twenty-seven inches I
wide, one and a quarter yards thirty- t
two inches wide, or one and a quarter 1
yards forty-four inches wide will be 1
required, with three and seven-eighth I
yards of a:l-over lace and ten yards
of velvet ribbon to trim as illustratel.
The graduated circular flounce gains
in popularity as the season advances
and has the merit of being singularly
graceful as well as smart. The ad.
u!rable skirt chown in the large draw
ing is shaped with five gores and fito
with perfect smoothness over the hips
while It Bares freely at the lower pcr
tion. The two flounces are cut with
precision and care, and include jast
the amount of fulness required by
fashion. The original is made of em
broidered pongee, but all the season's
materials are suitable. Thin goods,
such as nohair Swiss and grass linen,
are charming when so made and hung
over a separate foundation, while both
silks and wool are well adapted to the
style. The skirt is cut full length and
can be used plain or with a single
flounce wlen desired.
To cut this skirt for a woman of me
dium size ten and five-eighth yards of
material twenty-one inches wide, ten
and a luarter yards twenty-seven
inches wide, nine and a quarter yards
thirty-two inches wide, or sli, yards

Varietr is xegIWe
i The variety to be found in negligees
d these days is wonderful. It would
seem that every woman pnust live in
a one. They come in challes trimmed
a with lace, and with the yoke or waist
j lined. There are wash silks in Sowing
a lines lace trimmed and with short
draped sleeves, which are only an
r* apology for an arm covering. There
a are the lingerie negligees of the inest
K white goods and lace. They are very
r popular this year. and dotted meslin

with puaslins and dimitles galore In
l the less expensive materials, sad
iWV 4t them Vs geatly. Ui
these in the sartorial scale come the
everyday calicoes simply made In a
homely fashion, with plain little A
braids, or, in poorer tasta, coarse laces. T
Endless Desins For S59ves.
Sleeves are still close and tight at
the top, but almost endless designs
are shown for elaborating the lower A
portion, which is trimmed in some in
stances from the elbow downward .4
The bell shape is prettiest, with a '
tight undersleeve falling over the
hand, but the tight sleeve is at its
best with a full drooping cuff, or di
vided to represent an upper and under
part, this emphasized by using two d
distinct materials.
Bronse Boots and Shoes.
Bronze boots and shoes are to Be
seen in the shops, but they are not
worn to any extent. It is only when
one wants to have things match that
they arc worn once in a while. A
woman wearing a girdle of bronze silk
not long ago with a light silk gown
were also bronze shoes and stockings
to match.
Dy Way of a Boa.
Boas of flower petals are the pret
tiest yet. Rose petals are first choice
and, while any color is available, black
and white are most in demand. They
are wonderfully graceful, the petals
bunching becomingly around the neck,
and tumbling in profusion down the
long ends.
Golf Colors in Hats.
i Red hats with green rims, green hats
witfh red rims, red hats with green
t bands, and vice versa. How is that
I for golf colors in hats? These are all
felts, but no wearer of such a hat
i should be endangered by the wander
1 uing golf ball.
A Unique Stick Pin,
h One of the most unique ways In
d which the baroque pearl has been used
0 is in a stick pin. The design is the
head of a Moor, a black face with,
above it, the big bulging white cap
which is formed by the pearl. It is
charming.
A Quaint Pin.
a- The moss agate, which is but little
g seen now, forms the head of a quaint
n- pie. The flat stone is set in a frame of
ks gold on top of the pin, like a sign
th board on a post, supported underneath
et by two odd little fishes.
Woman's IFeY Blous.
The white silk blouse trimmed with
lace in bolero is a marked and de- di
served favorite of the season, and is
becoming to by far the greater num
ber of figures. The very pretty May
Manton model shown includes a big
fancy collar and is made of white In- .
dia silk, with trimmings of lace r p- f
plique, shield and collar of lace, and is c
worn with a big white ribbon bow
and narrow black velvet necktie, but 'I
all soft pliable materials are appro
priate, whether wool, silk or cotton, s
and the trimming can be varied in g
many ways.
The foundation for the waist is a
fitted li3ing that closes at the centre
front. To it is attached the shield
and over it are arranged the smooth
back and softly full front. At the
thrcat is a regulation stock that is un
lined, and the open neck is finished
with the sailor collar that is shaped
in paints. The lower line of lace gives a
the bolero effect.
The original includes mousque
taire upper sleeves that puff over the
elbows, but this portion can be omitted
in favor of plain ones trimmed as

S The Ways of the MoJ.rn Father.
d- A friend of the tLedger Monthly tells
*. a story illustrating the ways of the "
modern fatther in dealing with mis
chievous boys. He has three, all in
the first rank in point of mischief-mak
ing capacity. A few days ago two of
It them anointed the household pet pup
yt py with syrup of rhubarb. Their moth
er coming in shortly after and
;ht getting a lively welcome from the
ht little dog, her dress is covered
"r- with the sticky syrup. Shortly af
ter the father, hearing of the domes
tic catastrophe turned to the boys and
quietly docked the elder twenty-five
he cents from his weekly allowance, and
all the younger ten cents from his allow
ance, causing immediately a tremen
it's dous fall in the market value of mis
illy chiet. This, our friend says, is far
more effective punishment than ecold
ing or whipping, as it brings mischief
to a point where its return can be cal
ras culated in dol'ars and cents

Vigor-it is a hair food,
not a dye. Your hair does
not suddenly turn black,
look dead and lifeless.
But graduallythe old color
comes back,-all the rich,
dark color it used to have.
The hair stops falling,too.
