CONCERNING USE OF PLUMES
Newest Trimming In Millinery Showi
8tyles Such as Our Mother
Never Dreamed Of.
The newest trimming in millinery
emphasizes the uso of plumes. Such
plumes I Tho word conjures up an In
finite variety of styles of which our
mothers on grandmothers knew noth
lng, and fair women of today can be
doubly grateful for tho efforts" of mill!
ners.
uariands oi piumes are used on
brood, low hats. They are spotted and
flecked with color, and Bonie aro' made
of layers of different shades, giving a
wondorfully lrrldescent effect.
On velvet turbans tho use of a sin
gle plumo attached at tho front, and
extending toward the back In a slant
ing lino, Is quite evident This line for
the plume is used on large hats as
well. And speaking of the wide, flat
shapes leads us to the Introduction ol
ostrich feathers to edge tho brim. Two
successful Paris milliners have done
this with great effect,
Feather rosottes are made of ostrich
plumes. Concentric circles of cut
reamers are placed around a Jewelod
center. At tho side of a turban or on
the upturned brim of a largo velvet
hat this now type of ornament is ex
tremely chic.
a ltuuiur oana is oeing .used on
many large hats. Black and white
plumes are favored for" these orna
ments. They are detachable, hooking
at one side. This Idea Is attractive,
tor a cnange or trimming means
change of hat.
To Freshen a Lace Waist
A tight-cut lingerie waist of white
ince ana embroidery gains wondnr,
fully in elaborateness by the addition
or the latest French fancy. This is a
broad band of not in a pastel shade,
embroidered in soutache braid of ths
same color and applied JuBt over the
bust. With this is worn one of the
new neck scarfs of chiffon, in a color
that exactly matches and with the
enus embroidered In the soutache
Both of those are easily made up at
home by any clever needlewoman.
and will go a long way toward hiding
the deficiencies of a pretty but aging
lingerie waist. The chiffon scarf la
especially charming when erabrold-
ered its entire length with large coin
aois in satin Btltcb.
Cretonne Lampshades.
The very newost and prettiest thing
In home decoration is the lampshade
or smrred, cretonne or flowered .silk
.For these, heavy wire frames are pur
chased, tho round shape being the
beat. The cretonne or allk is then
shlrrod tightly under this frame, and
dampen or giuea to it. A narrow bor
der of furniture gimp conceals the
joining place.
In tapestry, this Variety ,ef lamp
shade becomes, really gorgeous. The
Idea, of course, can be' applied In any
of these .materials to caadlMhs.dt

One From the Cashier
The harmless customer leaned
HcrosB tho clear countor and smiled
engagingly at the now cashier. As ho
handed across tho amount his dinner
chock called for ho ventured a bit of
aimless converso, for ho was of that
sort.
"Funny,'1 said ho, "how easy It is to
spend money."
"Well," snapped tho cashlor on sho
fed his faro to tho register, "If money
was intended for you to hold on to the
tntnt would be turning out coins with
handles on 'em."
Had Money In Lumps.
Charles II. Rosenberg of Bavaria
had lumps on his shoulders, elbows,
and hips when ho arrived hero from
Hamburg on tho Kalserln Auguste Vic
toria. In fact, thcro was a scries of
smaller lumps along his spine, much
like a mountain range, as It Is present
ed on a ban-relief map.
The lumps wero about the size of
good Oregon apples, and as Rosen
borg passed before tho Immigration
doctor for observation, tho doctor said
softly to hlmBelf, "See that lump."
Then he asked Mr. Rosenberg to step
aside.
"You seem like a healthy man,"
said the doctor, "but I cannot pass you
until I know the origin of those lumps
on your body." "Ah, It la not a sick
noss," laughed tho man from Bavaria.
"Those swelling? Is money."
Taking oft his coat ho broke open a
sample lump and showed that It con
tained $500 In American bank notes.
He Informed the doctor that he had
$11,000 in all, with which he was go
ing to purchase an apple orchard In
Oregon.
He was admitted to the countr.

to tako n pitcher of fresh water to
Mr. Firman's room, and to say that
Miss Mottle Bent htm her compliments,
and that If he wanted a bath, the
bathroom was at his service.
When Tllllo returned she said:
"I tol' him, Miss Mattle, en' ho
laughed fit to bus" hlsself."
"Why did he laugh, Tllllo?"
"I dunno."
"What djd you tell him?"
"Jus' what you tol' me to."
"Tlllle, tell me exactly what you
said."

The League of Politeness.
The League of Politeness has been

How She Learned.
The mother of a family of three
small children was discussing their
comparative precocity with a friend.
"John waa vory slow at everything,"
fihe said, referring to her oldest "Tom
waB a llttlo better, and Edith, the

conversation.
"Humph!" he exclaimed. "I know
why her learns so quick. It's 'cause
her has us and wo didn't have us."

Moslem Traditions.
Ramadan Is tho month exalted by
Moslems above all others. In that
month the Koran according to Mos
lem tradition was brought down by
Gabriel from heaven and delivered to
men In small sections. In that month,
Mohammed was accustomed to retire
from Mecca to the cave of HIra, for
prayer and meditation. In that month
Abraham, Moses and other prophets
received their divine revelations. In
that month the' "doors of heaven are
always open, the passages to hell are
shut and the devils are chained." So

Hard on the Mare.
Twice, as the buB slowly wended Its
way up the steep Cumberland Gap, the
door at the rear opened and slammed.
At first those Inside paid little heed;
but the third time demanded to know

fashion.

I work all the time. But I am a
great-grandmother," she continued,
thoughtfully, "so how can these many
compliments be true? I am afraid my

,Mme. Bcrnhardt's laugh, spontane
ous as a girl's, prompted a chorus of
"No, no!"
"Yes," sold tho actress, "uncon

New Process of Staining Glass.
The art of coloring glass has been
lost and refound, jealously guarded
and maliciously stolen so many time
in the history of civilization that it
seems almost impossible to say any
thing new on glass staining. Yet a
process has been discovered for ma
king the stained glass used in windows
which Is a departure from anything
known at the present time. What the
Venetians and the Phoenicians knew
of It we cannot tell.
The glass first receives its design In
mineral colors and the whole is then
fired in a heat so Intense that the col
oring matter and the gloss ore lndls
solubly fused. The most attractive
feature ot this method Is that the sur
face acquires a peculiar pebbled char
acter In the heat, so that when the
glass is In place the lights are delight
fully soft and mellow.
In making a large window in many
shades each panel is separately mould
ed and bent and the sections are as
sembled In a metal frame.
Our Voices.
I think our conversational soprano,
as sometimes overheard in the cars,
arising from a group of young persons -who
have taken the train at one of
our great Industrial centers, for In
stance, young persons of the female
sex, we will say, who havo bustled In
full dressed, engaged in loud, strident
speech, and who, after free discussion,
have fixed on two or( more double
seats, which having secured, they pro
ceed to eat apples and hand round
daguerreotypes I say, I think the
conversational soprano, heard under
these circumstances, would not be
among tho allurements the old enemy
would put in requisition were he get
ting up a new temptation of St An
thony. There are sweet voices among us,
we all know, and voices not musical.
It may be, to those who hear them
for the first time, yet sweeter to us
than any we shall hear until we listen
to some warbling angel In the over
ture to that eternity of blissful har
monies we hope to enjoy. But why
should I tell lies? It my friends lovs
me, it is because 1 try to toll ths
truth. I never he&rl but two voices
in my life that frightened mo by their
sweetness. Holmes.
What About Brain Food?
This Question Came Up in the Recent
Trial for Libel.
A "Weekly" printed soma criticisms of the
claims made for our foods. It evidently did
not fancy our reply printed in various news
papers, and brought suit for llbol. At the trial
somo lnteresting.facta came out
Some of the chemical and medical experts
differed widely.
The following facts, however, were quite
clearly established:
Analysis of brain by an unquestionable au
thority, Geoghegan, shows of Mineral Salts,
Phosphoric Acid and Potash combined (Phos
- phate of Potash), 2.91 per cent ot the total,
fi.SS ot all Mineral Salts.
This is over one-half.
Beaunls, another authority, shows "Phos
phoric Acid combined" and Potash 73.44 per
cent from a total ot 101.07.
Considerable more than one-half ot Phos
phate of Potash.
Analysis of Grape-Nuta shows: Potassium
and Phosphorus, (which join and make Phos
phate of Potash), is considerable moro than
one-halt of all the mineral, salts in the food.
Dr, Goo. W, Carey, an authority' on the con
stituent elements of the L?dy, says: "The
gray matter of the brain is controlled entirely
by the inorganic cell-salt, Potassium Phosphate
(Phosphate of Potash). This salt unites with
albumen and by the addition ot oxygen creates
nerve fiuid or the gray matter of the brain.
Ot course, there Is a trace of other salts and
v other organic matter in nerve fluid, but Potas
sium Phosphate is the chief factor, "and has
the power within Itselt to attract, by ita ow
law of affinity, all things needed to manufac
ture the elixir of life."
Further on ho says: "The beginning and end
of tho matter 1b to supply the lacking princi
ple, and in molecular form, exactly as nature
furnishes it in vegetables, fruits and grain.
To supply deficiencies this la the only law of
cure."
The natural conclusion Is that if Phosphate
ot Potash is the needed mineral element In
brain and you use food which does not contain
it, you have brain fag because Us dally loss is
not supplied.
On tho contrary, it you eat food known to
be rich In this element, you place before the
lite forces that which nature demands for
braln-bulldlng.
In the trial a sneer was uttered because Mr.
Post announced that he had znado years of re
search In this country and some clinics ot
Europe, regarding the effect of the uilnd on
digestion of food.
But we must be .patient with those who
sneer at facts they know nothing about
Mind does not work well on a brain that is
broken down, byi lack of nourishment
A peaceful and evenly poised mind is neces
Bary to good digestion.'
Worry, anxiety,, fear, hate, &c, Ac, directly
interfere with or stop the flow ot Ptyalln, the
digestive juice of the .mouth, and also Inter
fere with, the flow ot the digestive Juices of
stomach and pancreas,
, Therefore, the mental state of the. Individual
has much to do (more than, suspected) with
digestion. v . '
. . , v p .
This trial has demonstrated;''
That Brain is made of Phosphate of Potash
as the principal Mineral Salt, added to albu
men and water.
That Grape-Nuts contains that element as
more than one-half of all. its mineral Baits.
A healthy brain la important, It one would
"do things" In this world.
A man who sneers at "Mind" sneers at the
best and loast understood part ot himself.
That part which some folks believe links us to
the Infinite.
Mind asks for a healthy brain upon which to
act, and Nature has defined a way to make a
healthy brain and renew it day by day as it
is used up from work ot the previous day.
Nature's way to rebnlld is by the use of food
which supplies thb things required.
