CHOICE MISCELLANY Markers Use Short Cuts. Ex, for express, nnd the single letter X, made to serve In like manner, fol lowing the name of the company, as used by shipping clerk In ninrU'uB packages, are anciently familiar forms of abbreviation, and, old time ami fa miliar as they really are. they cer tainly etlll answer their purpose well But there Is now employed by markers 1 another abbreviation or mark that hows vastly greater Ingenuity and re-. suits In n vastly greater saving of time, labor and marking Ink. This later mark Is made with n sin gle sweep of the brush, Just one straight mark like this: . Aud that mark, nfter the right word, stands for the word "line." So the shipping clerk now no longer marks n case Ray j line or Hudson line or whatever tho line may be, but Just tho name of the Hue with a dash after It, as Bay ' or Hudson , and so on. This mark Is of much later origin than the old time Ex or X. In fact. It Is of comparatively modem Introduc tion. But It has already among ship ping clerks como Into wldo and gen eral use.

Canada's Postal Savings Banks. Thero arc some conveniences about a postal savings bank system, like that of Canada, for Instance, which must be highly appreciated by certain classes of depositors. A person may open an account at one postofflce and continue It at any number of other of fices, depositing wherever he may hap pen to be, and yet have the whole amount at his command at any one office should be wish to withdraw It. This Is made easy by the fact that bis account is kept at the postmaster gen eral's office In Ottawa. A family mov ing from one place to another does not have to draw its: money from the sav ings bank and carry It along at the risk of robbery. It finds the amount at Its disposal wherever It goes. A commercial traveler, depositing In twenty towns, has the sum of all avail able at his home office as soon as a letter can pass to and from Ottawa. I St. Paul Pioneer Press. , . Orville Wrlnhl'a Schoolboy Essay. ', "I was in high school at Dayton at the same time as Orvllle Wright, now famed as Inventor of the aeroplane," remarked Ernest P. Crummel. "We were not in the same class, but I re member one essay that Wright pre pared for one of tho literary pro grammes. It was about airships, and Wright read from his paper that the time would como when men would navigate the air. "He read on so enthusiastically that tho other students nil laughed good ' naturedly at him for writing along I such foolish lines'. They all told him 1 a man would be crazy to try to ride ' an airship. But, as everybody knows today, Wright's youthful enthusiasm has carried him along to success and fame In just that very direction." Cleveland Plain Dealer. Mexico's New Military Prisons.

Quaint Old 8tyles Revived In the New Stoles and Muffs. So widespread has become the vogue of furs that no longer nre they re garded as a luxury, but, on tho con trary, as quite au important detail of the toilet. Because of this wide spread vogue and the necessity for supplying the demand for pelts the four corners of tho earth have literally been scoured, and wonders have been accomplished by means of dyeing and plucking. One sees the plebeian American red fox, by no means a comely beast In its native condition, transformed into a marvel of ebon blackness by expert coloring. A proc ess of dyeing has made an amazing change in squirrel, which In plain gray proved so unbecoming to most women when it was Introduced six years ago. But the most wonderful treatment of all is that which transforms the Amer ican muskrat's pelt Into a fur which cannot readily be distinguished from sealskin. Never before has there been a season when the fashions in furs have been so distinctly different for matrons and debutantes, for not only is the wearing of sable and broadtail confined almost exclusively to the. cider set of women, but it is noticeable that few of them are in favor of mink or caracul and that In reserving lynx for themselves they are graciously allowing their Jun iors to have prior call on sealskin. This rule applies especially to fur coats Intended for street use, and of these there are a largo number of styles to suit the Individual purse. Stoics are of infinite variety. Some of them are so long that they reach far below the knees and at the back cover the shoulders halfway to the waist line, in fact, so large are they that sleeves would almost be sufficient to transform them into coats. The flat, broad stole is always at Its best In a short haired fur, but it Is seen fre quently lu lynx, black fox nnd stone marten as well as iu Persian paw. In sabled squirrel and In mole. The novelty of the season Is the rug muff, which can only be developed In a pelt having naturally a small head and tall, such as are seen with sable, mink and ermine. In the rug muffs a row of tiny heads overlap a similar DnutcTonm coat in sealskin. number of tails, and when outspread It becomes simply a flat oblong, hand somely lined and conveniently fitted with several pockets. Some of the so called "tailored" fur coats are literally In three pieces- muff, jacket and detachable lncroyable collar, with or without deep lapels uo neatb the throat and fastening with large ornamental buttons. It goes without saying that such outfits ap peal strongly to the women of econom leal tastes. The illustration shows a stunning dlrectolre coat In sealskin. Trimmings a Girl Can Make. This Is to be a season of trimmings, and the girl who Is clever enough to make her own can save her purse, One of the easiest for home mnnufac' turo Is thick cjton cord covered with oins buk sewea on me macuiue uuu then used in the form of braiding. As the cord Is large, the wotk is quickly done when sewed Into curves, scrolls or circles. It is specially ef fectlve on net or rooussellne. It Is sewed by band with loose stitches. Another showy trimming that can be made at home is from bands of flowered silk cut to outline flowers nnd appllqued to white or ecru mousseltne de sole or chiffon. The raw edges nre finished with a gold or sliver cord, very narrow, or with a ruffle of the narrowest ribbon that can be bought. When Hanging Curtains. A house decorator gives this impor tant advice to women who arc arrange lng their homes. They should not hang curtains of one color against a wall paper of nsother color. They should not Join carpets of opponlto colors. They should not put different papers on the walls of adjoining roon.s which have wide archrways or folding doors between. These are simple Bug gestlons, but they mean a great deal The woman who Is guided by them will arrive at much better results than she who Ignores them. When It Is not possible to havo the carpets alike in rooms that are Joined by wide open lngt a rug should be laid over the long earn to hide It. THE STITCHJN TIME.
