Silk underskirts of the handsomer variety are expensive luxuries, but the woman who is handy with her needle can fashion one for about $" that would cost her three times that much if bought in the stores. The petticoat itself is made of plain taffeta, in any tint, and it is trimmed with escalloped ruffles that are finished at the edges with a heavy button hole sitch in black. Polka dots of the black, also, are worked in the ruffles. The effect is very dainty, and distinctly new. I i-.li.

The plea-sant method and beneficial effeets of the well known remedy, Synt'l of Flos, inanufactnred by the Califoknia Fio Syiiui Co., illustrate the value of obtaining the liquid laxative principles of plants known to be medicinally laxative and presenting them in the form most refreshing to the. taste and acceptable to the system. It is the one perfect strengthening laxative, cleansing- the system effectually, dispelling colds, headaches and fevers gently yet promptly and enabling one to overcome habitual constipation permanently. Its perfect freedom from every objectionable quality and substance, and its acting on the kidneys, liver and bowels, without weakening or irritating them, make it the ideal laxative. In the process of manufacturing figs nre used, as they tiro pleasant to the taste, but the medicinal qualities of the remly are obtained from senna and other aromatic plants, by a method known to the California Fio Syrlt Co. only.

Kipling's .Foiirn:Hm. Tl. Kay Robin.-on. editor of the Allahabad Pioneer. Iniia. has an article in the current issue- of Li;-raiu;v that gives sonu- ino.-t intr .-ting reminiscences of Kipling's journalistic life in India. Of particular interest was Kinling's method of making news when hard pressed for copy. 'One night in the office." says Mr. Robinson, 'a slight tremor of an earthquake was noticed. To verify the matter we looked at a pendent hook on a door; yes. it was swinging, so in went a paragraph in the paper, among the very latest news, announcing a 'slight earthquake at Lahore. Not another soul in Iihore or in any part of the Punjab or India felt that earthquake, and the government observatory knew nothing of it. It was our own private and special earthquake, and we treasure its memory. After an English earthquake he wrote to me: " 'This here English journalism isn't what it's cracked up to be. They can't have an earthquake in England without takjng up two cols, of the Times to describe the effects and to verify the direction and the nature of the shock. This does not give scope for invention. Now. I remember the time when you and I could just make an earthquake, same as the Almighty, slip it into the "local" at 3 a. m. of a Sunday morning, and go to bed with the consciousness we'd done our duty by the proprietors. Wonder what they'd say on the Globe to so strictly local an earthquake as ours?' "

A 1 ways Ioinjj for iml. When men do anything for God. the ; very least thing, they never know j where it will end. uor what amount of ! work it will do for Him. Iove's secret, therefore, is to be always doing things for God, and not to mind because they are vc.y little ones. F. W. j Fa her.
