Even the simplest little contrivances are often very complicate in the mak ing. There’s the collar button, for in stance, which, in addition to lining the pockets of the humorists with gold, has caused manldnd more trouble than the proper up-bringing of children. From all we can learn, however, it is the collar button which is made of a number of pieces soldered together , which is wont to break just at the wrong time. And, indeed, the only rep- A* V. £ <2? <s?

In case iit’s a man, you know just how it ruf fles his temper to be caught under the bed hunting for buttons; it annoys him equally if the wife shrieks, thinking him a burglar, or if she assumes a su jperior air and goes silently on her way. But let us look at this one-piece but ton and note its evolution. You may imagine there’s a lot of complicated ma chinery behind it—behind every stage iof it, indeed. In the first stage there’s a circular (disk stamped out of a strip of metal. Being fed into several machines, it at jlength gets into the third form, so like !a grandfather’s hat. Kapid blows, and imany of them, from powerful ham jmers, bring it to the fourth stage, j Then a machine turns up its edge. (Still another rolls it over. Then its jhead is put into shape.

BUYING TABLE LINEN. lit la More Economical to Select a Few Good Piece. Than to Get a Lot of Cheap Stuff. Table linen is an index of the taste iand neatness of the housekeeper. It lis economy to purchase only a fine Iquality and to change often, in order ito prevent the wearing out by hard jrubbing in the laundry, i For everyday use that sold by the iyard will suffice. It is much cheaper, (though it lacks the elegance of a bor (dered cloth. A small patterned linen, showing the familiar snowdrop, ivy and clover, wears better than that (having larger designs. For a small |family four cloths for daily use, with jas many of a better quality, are Napkins usually match. Din iner napkins are three-quarters of a [yard square, and a dozen go with each cloth. Both the tablecloths and nap kins should be cut by a drawn thread jand a narrow hand liem finished with |the utmost neatness. Four dozen nap jkins, for a small family, helped out |by small tea napkins, ought to suffice. !lf linen of every kind is washed be fore cutting and hemming, taking out |the starch will greatly facilitate the jwork. It is to be remembered that ilinen not bleached to snowy wliite jness will last much longer than the (other. Some housekeepers fancy, for a change, cither the plain or the twilled linen cloths. These are finished on each of the four edges with wide hems and hemstitching above, and are made ito fit the dimensions of the table. tHandsome they truly are. But, as [figured linens do not, they show every stain and muss. They are usually fin ished with a monogram from six to nine inches high, wrought diagonally across one corner in such manner us to show on the table top. The hems are from two to four inches in depth, and are sometimes finished with a fall of renaissance luce, the depth of which depends upon the housekeep er’s purse. .However the cloth is fin ished, the napkins should correspond. Table cloths of all kinds are procura ble of any length, even up to five yards.—Good Housekeeping. How to Clean Fine I.nce. Occasionally a piece of fancy work on the lace order does not show soil enough to justify sacrificing its new ness to the process of washing. If such work is laid away for a week in a heavy book between blue tissue paper, having had rubbed into the soiled places cal cined magnesia or pipeclay, it will come out cleaned and brightened by the proc ess. This is a good way to treat batten berg and point lace work which has be come dingy or yellow. For burns, injuries, piles and skin diseases use IleWitt’s Witch Hazel Salve. It is the original. Counterfeits may be offered. Use only DeWitt’s. Eli T. Reyuolds. T" HOW TO WEAR GLOVES. Many Otherwise tVc-11-Dresaed Wom en Are Inclined to Neglect This Important Accessory. Most women do not realize the im portance of the glove. An ill-fitting or inappropriate glove can mar the effect of an entire costume. It i 3 unfortu nate that there should be so much care lessness in connection with that article of dress which has held so revered a place ia romantic history. Gloves have been the symbol of power, the gauge ' of defiance and the token of love, and now they have dwindled to a necessary adjunct of dress which in the majority of cases is treatedi with the same con sideration as a poor relation—anything is good enough! But women’s careless- ( ness of detail in regard to hand cover- ! ing is noticed and commented upon to an extent which, if the fair wearers 1 only realized it, would create a revolu tion in glove wearing. There -are many “do nots” which are applicable to glove wearing: Do not buy cheap gloves. If your in come is limited you might better don neatly mended, correctly cut, good quality gloves than a new pair of poor shape and quality. Do not wear evening or dress gloves except in the evening or on dressy oc casions. It seems to have become a cus tom to wear a fresh pair of delicate gloves on some important occasion. 1 When they become slightly soiled or ’ have been cleaned they are used for less important times, and a thoroughly soiled glove appears to be “good enough to run out in or to wear shopping.’’ This is thoroughly bad taste, if not bad form. For traveling, walking and shop ping wear a medium heavy glove match ing the costume or a stout English I glove of some neutral shade. This will 1 prove more economical than always ' purchasing dress gloves, which when j once soiled are hacked out so quickly I and look so slovenly. Do not try to make the hand look i small by wearing a tight glove. In selecting a glove, be sure the fingers are long enough and that the button ' or clasp fastens at the juncture of i j ip * PUTTING ON A GLOVE. (The Diagram Shows the Right Way and the Wrong Way.) wrist and hand and not on the palm. It is best to purchase from different dealers until gloves perfectly suiting the hand of the wearer are discovered, and then give that dealer all your trade. Promiscuous glove buying is as bad as promiscuous shoe buying. On the other hand, do not wear gloves too large. The baggy backs, wrinkled fingers and slouchy wrists do not give that refinement of appear ance which all women covet. Do not wear a glove with a button off or a rip in some seam, thinking it will not be noticed. Such a defect is glar ing to strangers and friends. Almost any store will have any gloves which have been bought from them properly mended for a trifling sum, and the gloves look much better than when mended at home. Do not put a new glove on carelessly. The first wearing molds the glove to the hand and decides its future ap pearance. Be careful to get the fin gers straight and work them gently on, little by little, each in turn. Then put one finger in the palm and, by pressing outward adjust the hand part. The thumb follows, and when the seam on the outside of the hand is even and smooth the glove may be but toned or clasped. Do not take the glove off carelessly if you desire it to last well. In taking gloves off turn the wrist over the fin gers and draw until the fingers are half uncovered, then the finger ends may be loosened by the tips. This makes it an easy matter to readjust the glove right side out. It is a'good plan to breathe in a glove after taking it off. It preserves the softness of the kid by quickly drying any slight mois ture.—N. Y. Herald. Hot Water Is an Excitant. A prominent medical journal Bays that there are four classes of persons who should not drink hot water free ly. They are: (1) People who have irritability of the heart. Hot water will cause palpitation of the heart in such cases. (2) Persons with di lated stomachs. (3) Persons afflict ed with “sour stomach.” (4) Persons who have soreness of the stomach, or pain induced by light pressure. These rules are not for those who take hot water simply to relieve thirst better than cold water, and for that purpose 1 is not to be condemned. But hot water is an excitant, and In cases in | which irritation of the stomach ex ists should be avoided. * It lias been demonstrated by experience that consumption can be prevented by flie early use of One Minute Cough Cure. I This is the favorite remedy for coughs, I colds, croup, asthma, grippe and ail thoat 1 and lung troubles. Cures quickly. Eli T. Reynolds. WIRELESS ELECTRICITY. Famous Electrician Talka of the Possibility of Conmasicstliig with the Nearer Planets. Writing in Century, Nikola Tesla makes an interesting prediction as to the transmission of electric power without the use of wires: “While I have not, as yet, actually affected a transmission of a consider able amount of energy, such as would be of industrial importance, to a great distance by this new method, I have operated several model plants under exactly the same conditions which will exist in a large plant of this kind, and the practicability of the system is thoroughly demonstrated. The ex periments have shown conclusively that, with two terminals maintained at an elevation of not more than 30,- 000 to 35,000 feet above sea level, and with an electrical pressure of 15,G00,- 000 to 20,000,000 volts, the energy of thousands of horse power can bo. transmitted over distances which may be hundreds, and, if necessary, thou sands of miles. I am hopeful, how ever, that I may be able to reduce very considerably the elevation of the terminals now required, and with this object I am following up an idea which 'promises such a realization. There is, of course, a popular preju dice against using an electrical pres sure of millions of volts, which may cause sparks to fly at distances of hundreds of feet, but, paradoxical as it may seem, the system, as I have described it in a technical publication, offers greater personal safety than 1 most of the ordinary distribution cir- { i cuits now used in the cities. This is, ■ in a measure, borne out by the fact that, although I have carried on such experiments for a number of years, no injury has been sustained either by me or any of my assistants. * * * “From that moment when it was observed that, contrary to the estab- j lished opinion, low and easily acces- j sible strata of the atmosphere are | capable of conducting electricity, the transmission of electrical energy without wires has become a rational task of the engineer, and one sur- I passing all others in importance. Its ! practical consummation would mean t that energy would be available for the uses of man at any point of the globe, ! not in small amounts such as might i be derived from the ambient medium by suitable machinery, but in quanti- , ties virtually unlimited, from water falls. Export of power would then beeome the chief source of income for many happily situated countries, as ! the United States, Canada, Central | and South America, Switzerland and ; . Sweden. Men could settle down every-’ 1 I where, fertilize and irrigate the soil ' | with little effort, and convert barren deserts into gardens, and thus the enr | tire globe could be transformed and | made a fitter abode for mankind. It is highly probable that if there ore , intelligent beings on Mars they have . long- ago realized this very idea, which would explain the changes on its sur face noted by astronomers. The at mosphere on that planet, being of con siderably smaller density than that of the earth, would make the task much more easy.” ANCIENT FISHES. Type* That Had Jana Set with Long llowa of Bristling Teeth. There can be little question that in all of their forms, large and small, they were ravenous and sharklike in habits'. The large Diniehthys was cer tainly a dangerous neighbor, says the American Museum Journal, easily the muster of all other kinds of animals living in his time. That they quar reled among themselves is known al most positively, for a specimen has been taken from the rock whose stout back-plate had been completely crushed in two, bearing in its solid bone deep imprints and gashes which fit the jaw-tips of this species. In an other case a portion of a jaw was found separate in the rock, with marks of having been broken off during the ani mal’s lifetime. The particular form, Diniehthys, appears to have been nine feet or more in length, but it was by no means the largest member of the family. Titanichthys was probably h'alf as large again, but its jaws were less formidable. Other types of these ancient fishes had jaws which were long and.delicate, set with a bristling row of teeth. It may be noted that in all of these forms the mouth parts appear to have been eapable of a certain degree of inde pendent movement, so that the tips of tiie jaws could be opened or drawn to gether like finger-tips—in this regard differing widely from any living fishes. Another curious feature is the well marked socket show in the middle of the forehead; this may possibl)’ have been occupied by a “pineal eye,” which lizards have retained up to the present day. Electricity lor Public tie. In the business of manufacturing electricity for public supply, where steam power is used, the only avail able by-product is exhaust steam. This steam contains much of the heat of the furnuces which are fired to pro duce it when it is discharged into the air, and is entirely available for r.team heating purposes. In certain towns in the western states, notably In Wisconsin and Minnesota, where the -winters are long and severe, the electric light stations have laid sys tems of underground pipes and have supplied steam heat and hot water to citizens through them. The experi ment hns been an unqualified success. —lndianapolis News. The Leaxt Yon Can Do.

Reynolds' Pharmacy, THE AVENGER’S WRATH. i It Was Vented In Stronar Worde With out Any Blood Betas Spilled. The brother of one of the victims of “Jim” Cullen certainly had reason for his wrath, says the Denver Post. Cul len had hacked to death the Presque Isle deputy sheriff and his companion, who went out into the woods to arrest the big hulking scoundrel. ’Xwas a particularly brutal and unprovoked crime, and “Jim” Cullen was lynched by the infuriated citizens of the sec tion—but that is a story that I have no time to tell here. When the news of the double murder came out to Presque Isle, the brother of one of the victims became fairly frantio in his rage. He stormed, he cursed and raved, and he begged to be allowed to get at the villain who had done the deed. The people said to one another: “We mustn’t have another tragedy. What’s-his-name will be sure to kill Cullen if he gets at him, and so we must keep them apart.” Therefore two or three men were detailed to keep guard over the rav ing brother and look to it that he didn’t form any connection with Cul len. The murderer was guarded in a lit tle store all the day after the crime. He was to be kept there till arrange ments could be made to take him to Presque Isle village. The store was filled with curiosity seekers and the posse that had arrested him. | All at once the door of the store | flew open and in strode a tierce and ! wild man. Ilis eyes were rolling, his face was convulsed with rage and grief. It was the brother of the vic tim. He had in some manner es caped from those that guarded him, and here he was, ten miles from I Presque Isle, looking for the man I he had sworn to chew into • mincemeat. So fierce was the brother’s de ' meanor that the crowd instinctively broke before him. A clear aisle was left between him and the cowering j Cullen. The brother strode forwnrd. Some of the bystanders turned away their heads. They expected to see blood , fly all over the place. The men were i face to face. The brother —the ■ avenger—raised both his fists. Then he shouted: “Whang blank you to blanknation, I’m a good mind to kick your jaw off’n ye! ” That was all there was to it. Then they led him gently away and shut the door on him. I I’ve seen men a great deal like that myself. Have you? GRATITUDE DEMANDED. Tramp Cheats U ir He Doesn’t Make a Million Out of the \ickcl We (live Him. “We are a queer lot when It comes to charity,” said the man who had been looking over his pocket dictionary for the last half h-our, relate* the Boston Globe. “We give a tramp a nickel to buy food and then because lie doesn't make $1,000,000 the next week and tell nil the papers that he owes everything to us we cry out that he is ungrate ful.” “Do you think tramps know the meaning of the word gratitude?” asked the hard-faced man on the oppo site side. “Plenty of them, sir.” “You’ve encountered the grateful tramp, have you?” "I have, yes, sir. It was only last week thut a tramp died for me, and I presume there are others left like him. Perhaps you read of the man Clark, hanged in the Columbus penitentiary last Tuesday. He was my tramp. Six months ago he called at my house one night and asked for cash. I gave him 15 cents. He was much affected and de clared over and over again that if he could ever do anything to prove his gratitude he would.” “And he found away?” “He did, sir. I was having a lawsuit with a neighbor over a cow and was li able to be beaten. Hearing of the in cident the tramp laid for the plaintiff and killed him with a club.” “All in your interest?” “All in my interest, sir. Yes, sir; he fixed things so that instead of losing the case I won. When lam home lam milking that cow twice a day with my own hands.” “But about the tramp?” said the hard-faced man. “He was arrested, tried and convicted for murder, you say?” , “He was." “And what did you do for him?” “Nothing whatever.” “And they hung him?” “They did." “And didn’t you at least send him a bouquet to hold in his hand as he stood on the drop?” "Not even that. He wanted me to be present at the execution, but I made a flimsy excuse to leave town.” “And where—where wus your grati tude?” asked the hard faced man. “0, I’m a gentleman and not expect ed to have uny! It’s the poordevil of u tramp who must turn up that commod ity by the carload in return for our pennies!” To Cleun Chamois Gloves.
