    For Mourning
CRAPK Ib nn oxqulslto fabric
which wo nlmoat wish might bo
used for other thnn mourning
weaif But It has becomo ho thor
oughly established at tho heacf of tho
list of thoso fabrics suited to mourn
ing apparel that It will never bo'dis
lodged Crapu Is, In fact. In our civ
ilizntlqn tho Insignia of mourning and
Is used In gowns and wraps as woll
ub In millinery. Its weave and body
mako possible very beautiful effects
In workmanship and mourning linta
rarely are Improvod by decoratloiiB
other than those made of crnpo.
For first mourning, hats of crapo
or crapo and plain silk should bo me
dium in size and carefully made silks
nro manufactured especially for
mourning wear and aro usod In con
junction with crnpo in with lino effect.
Shapes for mourning mlllinory should
bo conservative in every way. No
extremes of size, no notlccablo ec
centricities aro good form. It Is in
neat and Ingenious work that mourn
ing millinory is pro-omlnent.
Tho four Lata Bhown hero aro ox
nmples of mourning of tho highest or
der of excellence Tho round hat, ol
black gronudlno and crape, shows the
.SIMPLE DRESS.
This, is qulto simple and might ho
mado in llnon and embroidery, or
cashmcro nnd foulard.
Tho skirt is plain to about tho
kneos, then has a dcop band of trim
ming taken to foot.
Tho bodlco haB tho upper part of
trimming, tho material being UBcd for
tho lowor part, which is tnken up to
nock at centor of back and front,
where a collar of tho snmo finishes'
the neck; tho cuffs and sleeve bands
aro also of thle.
Hat of soft silk or tulle, drawn up
with a ribbon.
Materials required: 2 yards 44
Inches wide, 3 yards trimming, "U
inches wido.
Mending a .Mackintosh,
O.ien by accident n mackintosh may
bo damaged to the extont of a slight
rent. Whllo tho rent Impairs its use
fulness, tho garment may still bo too
good to throw away, To mend it
sandpaper tho edgos to koop thorn
freo from grit. Then get a solution
of gutta porcha, spread it thinly along
tho soara, stroke down tho other seam
on It and Icavo a heavy weight on it
for soino hours. t
crnpo used ns a border or finish with
tho body of tho hat in grenadine, in
this nnd all tho other lints the trim
mlng Is mado up of tho fabrics.
A tonguo mado entirely of crap
has tho coronet covered with narrow
folds and a largo buoklu covered in
tho same way. The crown of tin
shape Is covered .with tho crnp
draped gracefully and appareutlj
fastened to place by tho buckle.
A turban shape, made entirely ol
rounded folds, lo trimmed with a pair
of wings made In the same way nnd
mounted by means of a buckle of dull
Jot. The folds aro cut in such a way
that tho rib runs across thorn on tho
straight, Instead of diagonally.
One should test crapo when buying
It, to seo that it has been properly
wnterproofed. Slnco somo manufac
turers havo so improved this fabric
that rain and moisture, or cvon Im
mersing in water, do not hurt It, it
hns become ono of tho most durablo
of materials. A small piece dipped
In a glasstof water will not "run" or
discolor tho water nor ho affected by
It, If it is of tho durablo kind and
worth having.

LAWN AND MUSLIN FROCKS
Some Suggestions Regarding the Mak
ing of These Light, Airy Sum
mer Dresses.
Iteady-mado lawn and muslin frocks
sell from three dollnrs up: With homo
making it muBt bo remembered that
a soft mntorial is nooded for tho
tucking at tho top of tho skirt so ns
not to bo bunglcsomo.
Anent nil tho llttlo Incxpensivo
wash textures that might bo used for
frocks, a word regarding tho doctor
ing of black nnd white with color
is In order. Tho Bhopa nro using
edges of plain red or bluo or green
lawn, togother with a lino of plain
black, on black and whlto wash frocks
of nil sorts, so, of course, tho unmado
materials nro provided for privnto
making. With a llttlo coarso laco for
tho yoko and undorsleevo odges, theso
lawn bands put on tho bottom of tho
Bklrt nnd in some mnnnor on tho
bodlco transform a chonp goods Into
something that Booms expensive So
treat tho lawns In this manner, and
at tho samo tlmo try nnd keep the
frock as" long as posslblo without
washing. For although accounted tub
colois, thoro are many summor dyes
that respond with bad grace to soap
and water.
'Fall Lines of Children's Coats.
Buyers aro well pleased with tho
fall lines of children's coats. Tho
now materials brought out this Ecason
are so rich 1 themselves that it re
quires very llttlo trimming to mako
tho garments attractive, says tho Dry
Goods Economist. Ilich Scotch mix
tures, fancy choviots and doublo
faced materials aro among tho sea
son's novelties which promise to meet
with great success. In tho doublo-fnco
fabrics tho rovorso sldo Is frequently
used for tho trimming, nnd Is either in
a plp.ld or striped effect or In a con
tracting color.
A Houseplant Item.
Houecplants of any kind that seom
to need mora life and utiorgy will
thrivo by submitting It to a course of
ammonia water applications, that Is,
tho soli. Ammonia when diluted in
tho proportions that ono makos it to
TOsh windows is a fertilizer. Soap
water is quite as good and a combina
tion of sonpy wator and nmmonln Is
still better. Glvo tho poor houso
plants n drink that Is also food to
them whon you aro about to throw
Into drain a material which thoy actu
ally requlro to appoar at their best.
To Freshen Suede 8hoes.
It is a good plan to includo a piece
of emery papor In tho household shoo
cleaning outfit. "When tho suodo shoes
havo been wet and tho nap has he
coma matted down a gentle rubbing
with tho emery pnper will raise It and
rcutoro tho velvetllko softnoss of tin-lib.

HOT WEATHER Hlr4T8.
Rise very early and do tho hot work
beforo tho hoat of tho day. It Is sur
prising how much more can bo done
from ilvo to six than from ten to clc.v
en. There nrQ no Interruptions, ns tho
majority of peoplo prcfor to tnlto
tholr "forty morning winks."
Havo tho work droasoa mado simply
with n square or round nock, without
a collar, nnd tho alcoves elbow length.
Such n dross is a real comfort if It Is
short etiough.
Simplify tho houso furnishings in
tho warm weather us wo do our food
and clothing. Put nwny tho bric-a-brac
and (Just-gnthcrlng things. 1111
tho houso with flowers, cover tho
cushions with linen, remove heavy
rugs nnd simplify housekeeping in
every department. If there is a
small porch oft from tho kitchou big
enough for n tablo and covered with
vines, havo that for n breakfast room.
It Is a splendid wny to start the day,
Iron only tho necessary article,
press out tho hems of shoots nnd buy
whlto crepo cloth for underwear that
needs no Ironing.
Servo fresh fruit oftonor for dessert,
nnd do away with tho cooking. Tho

If tho houBO is lighted by lamps or
gas, use candles for going to bed,
thoy glvo sufUclont light with much
less heat.
If ono Is using gua It Is necessary
to do as much ns possible with tho

nnd if a flat iron or two is put on top

Carnegie's New Benevolence.
Andrew Carnegie is developing n
srheino for re-populntlng Scotlnnd,
Tho plan now under consideration Is
ambitious. It is proposed to extend
assistance to any Scot whoso condi
tions of employment In England,
Wales or Ireland threaten to render
him a burden on tho ratepayers, If
a man of good chnracter, and anxiouH
to work, ho will bo provided with n
plot of land which will enable him to
get i comfortable living. Flnanclnl
assistance will bo given him to allow
him time to reallzo the products of
his labor. Tho Idea of tho Bohemo Is
to placo Scotsmen back on tho land
and to prevent them from bolng, us at
present, exposed to tho caprlco of
shooting landlords.
Curious European Legend.
A curious legend Ib associated with
tho chain of lakes In tho Dos or t do
i'arlitto, In tho Pyrenees, over which
tho airman M. Vedrlno, mado a suc
cessful flight a few days ago. These
lnkos, according to local tradition,
woro loft at tho tlmo of tho Flood.
Whon tho waters subsided, Noah and
his family Inndcd on tho Puy do
Prlguo, ono of tho highest peaks In
the district. Convincing proof of tho
truth of this tradition Is found in an
iron ring, to which, tho peasants de
clare, tho Ark was moored when tho
landing was effected,
