lace on her dressing table has caused
it to be covered with the clear glass,
also keeping the dust out of the lace,
an insurance against constant wearing

A Queen's Cupboard.
H Queen Alexandra has a quaint

Its only contents are ten

~ y Fussy Styles Economical.
Clever people know that it is a sea?on#when
"fussy" styles prevail that
economy is most easily practiced. This
season's types are specially adapted
for the "home" or "little dressmaker,"
and there are endless possibilities for
refurbishing out of date attire. Is a
skirt too narrow? It can he split up
"the front and a contrasting material
used in the robe fashion that is seen
?n some of the newest models. Have
3?ou an excellent skirt and passe
waist, with no possibility of matching
; ^ the material or even the shade? Don't
"X try. Make the new waist of lace and
^ trim it with strappings of the skirt
material, or a wide Princess girdle or
bodice, -or one of the no-sleeve low-cut
styles of waists, with lace gamp and
I sleeves, and be assured that you arc
in the "tip of the mode," as Lady Bet?1
ty at Tunbridge would have phrased

Sanitarium Methods at Home.
When one comes to the consideration
of the bath, the woman treating herpb
r. self at home is likely to take exception
to the sanitarium regime. Prob^
ably she has been indulging in one or
two tub baths a day, and what is
shocking, in a literal sense, they have
** been the cold plunge. That this debilitates
the nervous system, producing a
. temporary stimulation with the inevitable
reaction, has lately induced a
; % popular disapproval of it One sanitarium
physician always asks, as a
H first question, about the patient's ablutions,
and as invariably ends by recommending
two warm?not hot?tub
baths a week, with, of course, the daily
sponge bath. If one is in a depleted
state the strict observance of this rule
Is most urgent. The bath should be
In water of a temperature of 94 or 95
degrees, and, if possible, be adminis,.
tered by a maid, as the rubbing of the
body to a glow is an added stimulus
' to the purging of the pores of impurities.
It should never be taken within
two hours after eating; and, to assist
in the uncompleted digestive processes
as well as to relax the vital organs,
hot fomentations should be given previously.
The attendant protects the
patient around the waist with dry
flannel covering, and then places over
the stomach strips of flannel immers>
ed In very hot water, repeating these
applications twice for periods of five
minutes. After the bath, rest is essential.?Harper's
Bazar.
How to Have Bright Eyes.
Clear, bright eyes are a delightful
charm in a woman. This no woman
* can possess without a good, healthy
body.
The eye is affected by the health
like other organs of the body, and the
should he. bv healthv ex
ercise, fresh air and due attention to
the necessities of health, to ward off
disease and keep a pure mind and a
healthy body.
It is quite astonishing how depenk
dent the eye is upon a person's digestion,
and there is a strong sympathy
between the eye and the ear.
To insure bright and strong eyes
through life it is most necessary to
take care of them in early youth.
Many an infant's eyesight has been
marred for life by a careless nurse exposinglthe
eyes to too strong a light
and every precaution should be. taken
through childhood that they should not
be strained.
The wise do not try their eyes by
doing fine work by artificial light.
Rest is a wonderful recuperative.
The sensibility of the eye depends upon
the expansion of the pupil.
One fruitful source of trouble for
people who have to wear glasses is that
they' do not keep them clean.
Beauty culturists have taken the eyes
under their care from a decorative
./ tAnriDAint. i
>
J,.
Hf ;
ibUfl
Massage is invaluable for removing
the bagginess under the eyes, and
brushing the eyebrow with a soft
brush does a world of good, especially
if on the brush a little tonic is employed.
The last clever notion of the beauty
culturist is to massage the eyelids so
that they look full and white.
Veils when constantly worn are injurious
to the eyesight.
Cleanliness and pure air are all im- i
portant and It is an admirable plan to
bathe the eyes in cool water daily, especially
if they are much exposed t?
dust.
It is hurtful to rub the eyes whei
waking.
The natural decay of sight begint
after the middle years of one's life,
and if the first warning of any strain
is neglected, the sufferer lays up a |
store of trouble.
With normal and proper care ot
mind and body a person's eyesight
should be of the best and the eyes
themselves bright and attractive.?New

For Women Who Go Autoing.
An embroidered cover for the pneumatic
cushion which your friend puts
beneath her feet when motoring would v
make an acceptable gift. Select some
heavy material, like denim, and put
on it an appropriate design worked
in a coarse but effective stitch.
A great many women are prejudiced
against the rubber lined coat, but it
has its place and often prevents a
drenching. The really nice ones are
soft and pliable and can be folded almost
as closely as those that have no
rubber in them. The outside is silk
and has the same nice appearance as
the all-silk garment, and the inner
side is perhaps a soft gray plaid.
Very handsome are the silk vests
all embroidered ready to adjust to the
coat of your swell auto costume, white
with old-blue and gold embroidery,
and tan with black and gold being two
of the prettiest combinations.
The straw covered smelling bottles J
are nuite the thine to carrv on an au- I
tomobile picnic party, for some one is
always liable to be taken ill without
warning or at least to have an unsolicited
headache.
A clover leaf needle bock for the
auto tourist is a dainty and convenient
trifle. Green art linen is used, the
petals being four inches wide. This is
lined with white silk and bound with
white ribbon, and the flannel leaves
inside are fitted out with needles and
pins of every description, and the whole
tied together with narrow ribbon.
The leather leggins for automobiling
are serviceable as well as handsome,
for the tramp through the wood
or meadow is often a pleasurable part
of the short auto trip.
"Motor" describes several boots for
motoring wear that are being made
for a social leader in New York. One
is in the softest of bronze kid and lined
throughout with beaver, the length
coming well nigh to the knee. Another
set is in pale-gray ooze calf, to match
a coat-and-skirt suit of the same material.
These are lined with a white
rabbit fur flecked here and there with
tiny black tails to simulate an ermine
lining, which extends right down to
the toes. The boots are assuredly a
triumph of the bootmaker's skill, for,
' - * V- - * J/N ~ /-t*

seem a single size larger than one
would ordinarily wear for walking purposes.
Plaids are worn considerably. Ono
of the stunning "warm" coats is o?
what is c,alled an English blanket
cloth. The cuffs, which with the collar
are of plain material, button close
to the wrist, the front is double breasted,
there are-generous pockets, and if
one likes plaids, she could get lots of
comfort out of. such a coat at this season
on her trips out into the country,
which require warm clothing for the
air is yet chilly.
The hat pin topped with mercury
wings is considered appropriate for
fastening one's hat when motoring.
Of course there are other designs, too,
and she who wants to be smartly dressed
will look after these little details.
Every woman who motors must give
special care to her face if she would
not have a coarse skin after the long
season of outdoor driving. The very
best cream and astringent is none too
good, and if she does not know how to
give herself a good massage, or does
not care to, she will do well to make
a practice of visiting a facial masseuse
regularly and often.
The "hood and scarf" is a new model
and an impressive one even if it does
not appear so. The hand extends
around the forehead and fastens with
ball and socket snaps in the back. The
hood protects the ton and hack of the
Ko-a/i anri tio.s under the chin, scarf

The electrically-lighted road map is
one of the conveniences for those who
have to travel nights.
With the green coat is worn a green
veil, indeed it is quite the vogue to
have your veil and coat match in color.
OOMPLETEST BUSINESS BUILDING j |
Features of W. L. Douglas' Adminis- !
tration and Jobbing House. j |
The dedication of the new adminis- ;
tration and jobbing house burldiug !
erected at Brockton, Mass., by the W. i
L. Douglas Shoe Co. as a part of its
mammoth manufacturing plant at Mon- l
tello was marked by the thoroughness 1
and attention to detail characteristic 1
of the firm in all its undertakings. 1
As the new building Is said to be the *
most complete and convenient of any
ever built for a commercial house in
the United States, so were the expres- j
sions of appreciation bj tbe many persons
who visited it for inspection sincere
and of a highly congratulatory
nature.
The dedicatory program included
open house from 11 a. m. to 8 p. m.
with concert by the Mace Gay orchestra
and the presence of a Boston
caterer to attend to the wishes of all
Tbe building Itself afforded a feast for
tbe eye, especially the offices, which
are marvels in many ways. Fifteen
thousand invitations were sent out, including
over 11,000 to the retail dealers
in the United States, who handle the
W. L. Douglas Co. shoes, the others
going to shoe manufacturers and all
allied Industries in Brockton and vicinity.
Mr. Douglas will be glad to
have anybody who is interested call
The new building is situated just
north of the No. 1 factory on Spark
street, facing the Montello railroad
station. Its completion marks the establishment
of a modern up-to-date
wholesale Jobbing house and office
building. Mr. Douglas has long considered
the advisabllty of a jobbing
house, not only for the purpose of supplying
his own retail stores more read- J
ily, but that the 11,000 dealers thnough- j
out the United States handling the W.
Li. Douglas shoe might be able to obtain
shoes for immediate use with
gi'eater facility.
Under the present system all shoes
are manufactured to order, and ens'
tomers sometimes lose sales waiting
for shoes to arrive With the new jobbing
house they will be enabled to
have their huriy orders shipped the
same day they are received, which will
be far more. satisfactory to the customer
and will result in a largely-Increased
business to the W. L. Douglas
Shoe Co.
The new building is 260 ffeet long
and 60 feet wide and two stories in
height The jobbing department will
occupy the entire lower floor, while
the offices will occupy the Second floor. |
Leaving the new jobbing house on I
the first floor, the main staircase as- j
cends to the second floor level in two 1
divisions separating on the first land- j
ing and meeting again upon the fourth, i
where the large Palladlan window Is
x I
situated, which appears over the en- ;
trance.
At the head of the staircase in i
the mosaic floor appears the word ;
"Atrium," the name of the inner hall, j
planned and decorated after the man- j
ner of the central apartment of the
Pompeiian house. This room is direct- !
ly in the center of the main building,
being 26x6S and 16 feet in height, and
Is lighted by three large celling sky- j
lights of classic design.
Around the atrium are placed the j
private offices, where the heads of the
departments are located, with their j
assistants. Beginning at the right of !
the main entrance, in order, are those :
of the <J. t\ Richmond, buyer; H. T. j
Drake, general superintendent; Hon. j
\V. L. Donglas, president; and H. L. |
Tinkbam, treasurer. They are finished i
and furnished in mahogany and are
ensuite. Mr. Douglas* own room occupies
the southwest corner of the
building, and is a very handsome
apartment To the left of these comes j
the room of C. D. Nevlns, assistant
treasurer, Mrs. Marlon Shields, correspondence
clerk, and the store department
On the east of the atrium arid open- !
ing into this hall are two alcoves sep- r
arated by mahogany counters, the j
fronts of which are plate glass and !
grilles of bronze. These are the offices '
of Warren Weeks, paymaster, and j
Harry L. Thompson, the bookkeeper.
The nest in order to the left are two j
rooms devoted to the credit department
one the private office of A. T.
Sweetser and the other occupied by his
clerks. The next two offices are those j
of F. L. Erskine, advertising manager, j
and his assistants.
The three other rooms completing :
the outer wall line of the atrium are
the reception room to the left of the
staircase hall, directors' room and
lavatory and the sample room. Here
are located the telegraph instruments,
telephone switchboard and booths for j
use of guests.
The directors' room is a fine cham- !
ber occupying the space in the north- j
west corner of the" building. This j
room Is finished and furnished in ma- j
bogany and all appointments' are in i
keeping. Here hangs a portrait in oil |
of Mr. Douglas, the president The i
last room in this series is the sample j '
room, also in mahogany.
On center with the entrance and be- j
tween the bookkeeper's alcove and the !.
credit department is a hall leading to

OPERATION AVOIDED
_______ i
EXPERIENCE OF MISS MERKLEY
3he Was Told That an Operation Was
Inevitable. How She Escaped It.
When a physician tells a womat suffering
with serious feminine trouble
that an operation is necessary, the very
thought of the knife and' the operating
table strikes terror to her heart, and
jur hospitals are full of women coming
for just such operations.

There are cases where an operation*
isjthe only resource, but when one considers
the great number of cases of
menacing female troubles cured by
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
after physicians have advised
operations, no woman should submit to
one without first trying the Vegetable
Compound and writing Mrs. Hnkham,
Lynn, Mass., for advice, which is free.
Miss Margret Merkley, of 275 Third
Street, Milwaukee, Wis., writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:
44 Loss of strength, extreme nervousness,
shooting pains through the pelvic organs,
bearing down pains and cramps compelled
me to seek medical advice. The doctor, after
making an examination, said I hrid a female
trouble and ulceration and advise! an operation.
To this I strongly obiected end decided
to try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
The ulceration quickly healed, all
the bad symptoms disappeared and I am

They Had Escaped That. (
A young disciple of Blackstone,
who had worked his way through college
and taken a full course in the
study of law besides, was making a
trip through the Soutiwest in search
of an eligible location for the practice
of his profession. A thrifty
young city, with a considerable body
of water on one side of it and a forest
on the other, attracted his attention*
and he decided to make a few day's
stay and investigate.
"Putting up" at what seemed to
he the best hotel, he ate his dinner,
then strolled into the office, and proceeded
in. a careless way to interrogate
the clerk.
"There is a good deal of business
done in. this town, isn't there?" he
asked. ?
"Yes, sir," answered the young man.
"In one way and another there's a
good jag of business going on here."
"Healthy place, isn't it?"
"Middling."
"Is there much litigation here?"
"No, I haven't heard of any cases
of that, but there's a lot of chills an'
fever, and occasionally a bad case of
the grip."
Mites and tfawks, Two Chicken
Enemies.
In his lectures before the students
of the Agriculture Department of the
University of Missouri T. E. Orr, secretary
of the American Poultry Association,
told methods of combatting
mites and chicken hawks that might
easily be used by every Missouri
housewife.
Mites, he says, might be gotten rid
of by spraying the chicken house
with a mixture of one part crude carbolic
acid and eight parts carbon
oil. This mixture he recommends in
preference to mite exterminators sold
by traveling agents.
Hawks, he claims, may be kept
out of the poultry yard by attaching
bright pieces of tin, six by ten inches,
to the trees and poles surrounding
quarters, by strings two feet long so
that the wind will make the bright
metal dance in the sunlight.
Both steel and gold pens axe apparently
doomed. Dr. Werner von Bolton
delivered before the ElectroTechnical
Association in Berlin, the
other day, an address in which he
described the new metal tantalite,
which is so hard that a diamond drill
makes no impression on it. Pens
made from it are indestructible, and
more elastic than gold pens.
