Of Interest to Women Renders

NEW HAIR NET. Small Hairpins Are Woven Fast to the Borders and Meshing. It required throe Londoners to devise the Improved hair net which is shown in the Illustration, but it would probably take more than three to get it off milady’s head unless some one of them knew the combination.. The net portion of this important article is no different from that of any other hair net, but the value of the invention lies in the fact that it will “stay put.’’ Along the borders are fastened

a lot of little hairpins and a circle of double meshes pasees through the middle part. Hairpins are also attached to this oircle and are woven into the meshes. When one of these nets is adjusted it is these to stay until the wearer is ready to withdraw the multiplicity of little pins that hold it in place. Fitting so closely it has not the objection raised to some old-style nets that the ends come loose and give an untidy appearance to the coiffure.

FOR THE BRIDE'S TABLE.

By Miss Eunice Clarkson.

A beautiful conception for a bridal table Is a “Cupid’s Road.” A tiny road the length of the table to made to represent Cupid’s driveway. This path is made of rice bordered with smilax and white raess. All along the thoroughfare are placed bisqae Cupids, and at the end of the way is a mixture bridal carriage decorated with smilax and white loses, all ready for the bride and groom-to drive away in. Have suspended from the ehandeOer directly over the table a large bell made of white roses and smilax, or any flower which is used. Plaoe a white rose at each plane and tor name cards use plain white ones decorated in one corner with a water color or outline sketch of a bride and groom walking up the aisle. A bridge of flowers is another very pretty scheme. In the center of the board rests a large olaeuiar mirror bordered with flowers. At each side some distance apart are silver candelabra crowned with candles and pretty shades. From one candelabrum to another are stretched two stout wires, covered and hidden under a broad band of ribbon. The ribbon Is carried under the wires alao, the two bands being pinned together Invisibly under little fern sprays and airy bunches of white flowers. To give the prettiest effect some of the blqpffi>ma and greenery should fall naturally and easily over the edge. A bisque Cupid should be placed at each end of the bridge, and at the base of frofh candelabrum are strewn flowers ami ferns. The idea is a unique one for a bridal table decoration, expressing,the idea of crossing the flowering bridge to matrimony.

Chinese Woman Study Medicine.

Hie Woman's Medical School at awarded diplomas to six graduates lately. The aabool was founded a little mom than three years ago by funds furnished by 14 Bing Shu, president of the Chinese town council.

Each of the six graduates read an essay- two of than -in HbsUih * ‘» - V;.' l:‘* ..

A PORTABLE DESK.

Can Be Folded Up and Carried About ae a Suit Caae. If the Illinois man who Invented the portable deak la not a traveling man he 'is a good friend of the family. Also he has added to the comfort of flat dwellers. Closed, the desk is about the size and shape of a dress suit ease, which it closely resembles. Open, it is a substantial desk, equipped with drawers and pigeonholes after the moat approved fashion of a big roll top. Metal legs, of the lasy-tong principle, unfold to fora a support, and a supporting rod holds what might bo termed the lid in the position of a writing table. To the top is attached a handle, by which the whole may be carried. For salesmen who have much writing to do the portable desk is of Inestimable value, as it enables them to carry a supply of all sorts of stationery and to carry on correspondence at any place. Instead of writing their le'ttera and filling out contracts in the public writing room of their hotels, thay have simply to open their own desk in their own room. If the

whole space in the desk Is not needed for paper It can be used for samples, or on short trips to carry the clean linen required.— Washington Star.

An Ancient Lizard.

The tuatara lizard found In New Zealand is one of the most ancient forms of animal life now found on earth. Originally this lizard possessed four eyes, but In the course of the ages it has lost one pair and must now get along* with two. The tuatara lays eggs which are remarkable In that they require fourteen months to hatch, the embryo passing the winter In a state of hibernation. These small survivors of past ages are found only In a few localities and are becoming very scarce, collectors from every part of the world being continually on their trail. They are about two feet in length, and In common with other lizards have the fortunate characteristic of being able to replace portions of their 11mhp or tails which have been destroyed. It Is asserted that one of theSe lizards owned by a naturalist had the misfortune some time ago to lose an eye and that a complete new eye, perfect In every way, has grown In the place of the old one.—Harper's Weekly.

Unique Hat Fastener.

The average woman likes her friends to think she does not have to wear her hats or gowns many times, ss this indicates a varied wardrobe. Unfortunately, some hats will betray the wearer, as the number of holes made by the hatpins will show how often they have been worn. To get

around this a California man has devised a hat fastener which necessitates the use of only one hatpin, yet holds the headgear firmly la place. Inside the band of the hat Is a revolving member equipped with a number of prongs. These prongs engage the hair and act as auxiliary pins, so to speak; indeed it is not absolutely necessary to use even one pin. If one Is used, however, it may be passed-, through the casing holding the prongs and It will of course make the hat more Btable than without it. — Boston Post

Will Wipe Out Many Mills.

The dam which the United States Government is planning to construct at Troy across the Hudson River will wipe out a number of factories and mills in that region using water power. The head furnished by the dam will be utilized to generate about 000 horse-power, and this will be sold to the mills and factories at cost. However, the companies will be required to pay-the coat of building the power house. lt is estimated that the amofflit of power be frrpe employed.

... PRACTICAL RELIGION. 'H ,j " - by R®V. GILBERT REID, DJX And hath made of on* blood «H nations of men for to djwofl on *H tho face of the earth, add hot* determined the time before appointed, end the bounds of their xv>L M. Tho Apostle Paul won a phOosophor and theologian. Bettor, ho was man at affairs, practical and »v apathetic. Once ha waa a narrow bigot: ha became a large hearted humanitarian. To his mind as he atood on Mara Hill, in Athens, among the adherents <*f other faiths, there were, two greet principles—dogmas, if you please--worthy of adoption among the ealtlvated of Greece, the strong of Rome and people everywhere through all the agoe—namely, patriotism end *nlversal brotherhood or fraternity. -patriotic is to be religious. This Is good teaching. As an American I cannot serve my God without serving my country. Her destiny in history, her place among the ages, her "times before appointed,” I am to cherish and in solemnity of obligation to use aright. Her territory I must defend. Her boundaries I am to safeguard. There are “bounds of habitation” for us Americans, beyond which let us not dare to go. Neither let any other encroach or assault these, our bounds, All this is part of a common sense'and practical religion. If for ns, as Americans, to be patriotic is to be religious, then in fair play let every one else have the chance to be religious in the same way and with equal Intensity. Nations have boundaries, limitations, an identity and Independent sovereignty. How, then, shall these throbbing, determined patriotisms—as many as there are States—be kept from dashing or held back from war? Will the Church pride Itself again on beinrf militant? Here, then, Is the other dogma, without which our religion will be lopsided, incomplete, harmful. It la the dogma of humanltarianlsm, the principle of fraternity, the spirit of brotherhood. Every one on the face of the earth Is allowed, unhindered, full scope for patriotism, and he allows to all others the same. This nation extends to that the hand of fellowship, the spirit of helpfulness,. deeds of kindness and beneficence. This is good and much needed religion. The opposite Is aggressiveness, spoliaton, plunder and conquest. In the one family all the sons keep their Individuality; but, let them remember they are brothers. In the large family of nations there is the game independence; let them guard, too, their brotherhood.

. “Oh, my children, Lore 1b aunahlne, hate is shadow, Life is checkered shade and sunshine, Rule by lore, O Hiawatha." In this spirit, with the message of (good will to man, Ml patriotic Americans will be doing God service, will have a noble mission to British and Germans, to French and Russians, to every nation on all the six continents, to Jew and Gentile, Christian and non-Christian, and say, -“Rule by love, ob, ye, my brothers."

Voltaire's Boast.

By Prof. James Orr, D.D. There is a reported saying of Voltaire, that "It took twelve men to found Christianity, but he would show the world that onp man could over- * throw it" Another saying of Voltaire hag reference to Newton’s discovery of the law of gravitation. Sir Isaac Newton, who discovered the law, was a humble Christian man. But Voltaire was eonfldant that Christianity would have been overthrown by the new discovery, and would not survive a century- The state of facts today is e singular commentary on the boasts. Voltaire’s volumes—some ninety-four of them —stand on the shelf, and the dust which covers them j Is seldom disturbed, save for some literary or historical purpose. Christianity, on the other hand, survives and extends. We speak advisedly, In full View of the developments of unbelief in our midst, when we affirm that the Church of Christ today baa more members, is spreading Itself more widely in the world, is circulating more Bibles, is doing more good, is cherishing more earnestly in its heart the dream of universal empire, than at any previous period of its history.—Homiletic Review. To be' lovely almost all too time requires much prayer and the right kind of living. The beet of as are only sinner* saved by grace and apt at,thorn to step a little arid# from the paths la which we ought to work and *hi"b How careful then ought we to be. Tbe only argument that I need that there is an Evil Spirit going about is an examination of myself. Suppose you try tbe same test? —George R.
