Tender Skins of Children Soothed by A Mild Liquid Compound. Have you ever tried a few drops of an oil of wlntergreen compound for skin trouble? It is the basis of a liquid compound which seems to be about the only safe and sure cure for eczema, salt rheum, tetter, ringworm and kindred diseases. The liquid is so mild that it is used with wonderful soothing effect on the tender skins of infants. To prove efficacious, the oil of wlntergreen must be mixed with thymol and glycerine, as in the Prescription of Dr. D. D. Dennis, the Chicago skin specialist. The compound is known ns D. D. D. Prescription. Used with D. D. D. Soap it appears to be infallible. "A. J. Brand. 112S Joliet St., New Orleans, La., writes: "About five years ago when my daughter was about three months old, she had eczema very badly. Her neck was one solid mass of sores, and we tried everything possible to relieve her, but to no purpose. The doctor we called said that he could cure her, but that It would take at least two years to do so and on account of her age we surely thought that her pain would kill her. We began using D. D. D. Prescription and after using two bottles she was as well and happy a child as you can see and with no jnark or scar on her skin. "My youngest daughter, now two years old. started the same way with a sore neck about six months ago. We did not lost any time in applying D. D. I. and it needed only a few applications to heal her neck. I also use D. D. D. after shaving, with beneficial results." As far as we have seen, the cures "with oil of wlntergreen as used in D. D. ,D. Prescription are permanent cures. And we certainly do know that the instant D. D. D. Prescription Is applied to the skin, the Itch is relieved, A few drops takes the itch away at once, cooling and refreshing the skin. For sale by all druggists.

IN THE WOMAN'S WORLD

What They Are DoingLittle Things of Interest.

MISS ISABEL BOYLE. . Woman 8tsward of ths Hoffman House, New York City. The only woman in New York who Is steward of a big hotel is Isabel Boyle of the Hoffman House, and so capable has she proved herself during her five years of stewardship that she has become the right hand of the proprietor. Mr. Caddagan, the manager of the Hoffman House, claims that having a woman steward is his own idea, and the discovery of this particular woman is his also. Mr. Caddagan's sisters were sent to a convent in Virginia to complete their education,, and there as a fellow student they met Isabel Boyle, with whom they became warm friends. When they left the convent in Virginia the Misses Caddagan Invited Miss Boyle to visit them in their northern home. This In due time she did, but her family had got into financial difficulties, and the girl was anxious to carve out her own way In the world, so she asked her friends to help her find a position. Mr. Caddagan, who happened HISS ISABEL BOYLE. to need an assistant steward, asked her if she would like to take the position. She accepted, and this was the beginning of her career. Miss Boyle is of medium height, with wavy dark hair and soft brown eyes. She has a cheery disposition and a fnnd of real Irish wit that carries her over many a rough place. It matters not whether found at work or at play, buying little necks by the thousand or weighing Virginia hams by the barrel, her personality Is bright and refreshing. She is a woman who loves her work, so of course she has made a success of it. Woman Invented Linen Collars. It Is now authenticated beyond a doubt that Mrs. Hannah Lord Montague was the inventor of the detachable linen collar. Hannah Lord was born in Canaan, Columbia county, N. T.. Dec. 14, 1794, a daughter of WilHam A. Lord, a Revolutionary officer, member of the state legislature and the author of "Lord's Tactics," used by the early state militia. She was married on Aug. 14, 1817, to Orlando Montague, and they took tip their residence at 139 Third street, in Troy. Mr. Montague, as near as can be learned, was engaged In making fine shoes for women. H3 was a large man, scrupulously particular in matters of dress, even to the point of fastidionsness, and In those days, before the invention of the sewing machine and when there were j no public laundries, the making and : washing and ironing of his shirts was no small Item In the work of the household. Not unlike many housewives of thoso days, Mrs. Montague was resourceful, and In casting about for devices to lighten her household duties she hit upon the idea of a detached collar, which might be fastened to a neckband on her husband's shirts and washed and ironed separately. In 1829 the Rev. Ebenezer Brown, a retired Methodist clergyman, who had settled In Troy and started a small ;' , dry goods store at 285 River street, quick to take advantage of the popularity of the new separate collar, opened a small workshop In the rear of his store, where his wife and daughters and one or two other women cut out with scissors, stitched by band and washed and Ironed the collars, which he disposed of by peddling. This was in reality the first collar shop. Leslie's Weekly. What le Directoire? D.'rectoire. lneroyable. merveilleusc, are words on every tongue, yet they are frequently used Interchangeably with regard to distinguishing characteristics. Directoire is the comprehensive word, including lneroyable (the dress of the man during the directoire period and the mervellleuse (the woman's dress of the same period). The classic type of costume which has so revolutionized the clothes of the moment Is a revival of the copies of Greek draperies assumed at the close of the eighteenth century, when the new government, the directoire (directory), supplanted the old French monarchy. At that period Greek and Roman philosophy appealed to cultivated minds, and classic costumes, as expressed in the lines of Greek sculpture, demanded a share of consideration. The women of the younger republic appeared attired In costumes on urecian lines, and the style, at one simple and artistic, prevailed. So the original directoire was bori of the Greek and adapted to the re quirements of the "present day" of th closing of the eighteenth century, and the directoire of the moment Is the re vlval of that of a hundred years ago with just sufficient amendment to sui' It to our "present day" needs. . The characterizing features of th directoire style are: Skirts scant and clinging and en traiue. with- a higl waist band; sleeves small, close fittinj and long; collars high; pockets large, ravers c zavge&tttL- button anraetaq

zzz

One, ail or any Lumber oftfe tr acteristlcs may be discovered In ont garment. The introduction of the directolr has caused a radical change In cos tnme building. The effect must be ol swathing, of a seamless robe, no matter how much seaming, darting and goring may be employed In the construction of the foundation. Distinguishing characteristics of tb lneroyable are the coats long of tat and cut off squarely and abruptlj

above the waist line In front, witt I long sleeves, massively cuffed, witt huge revers and pocket flaps all much bebuttoned. Mervellleuse stands for the scant clinging, swathing style. The empire style is an evolution ol the directoire. even as the directoire period merged Into the empire. The chief difference between the two styles lies in the greater fullness of the empire. The Unmusical Voice. A friend who has spent many years abroad remarked: "It does seem too bad that American children should have such disagreeable voices. They are acknowledged to be bright and attractive, yet because of their high pitched, disagreeable voices they are shunned," says Good Housekeeping. "Travelers avoid a car or a hotel In which there are young Americans." Why is this? Largely because our children are Imitative, and as our voices are not well modulated neither are theirs. Is the unmusical voice a necessary American trait? Throat specialists tell us that, although our climate is inclined to sharpen the tone, a certain sweetness and a low pitch may be maintained with proper care. A child is soothed by gentle speech and Irritated by harsh tones. Of course you read aloud to your child. Every mother does. Let this be done with constant watching of articulation and tone. This is good exercise for the reader and a means of culture in more than one respect for the child. Never rebuke in anger. Keep quiet until you can speak sweetly and firmly. One point which cultivated foreigners notice is that our young people call their messages from a distance instead of going to the person and quietly waiting for an opportunity to speak. Shouting through the house is unpleasant and uncultured. A child should understand that it is not to break In upon conversation. This last performance Is considered "very American" abroad. Mrs. Taft In the Whit House. Mrs. William II. Taft will move amid familiar scenes if she becomes the first laCy of the laud and is at the head of the White House menage. Mrs. Taft is a daughter of John W. Herron, who was the law partner of former President Rutherford B. Hayes. The Hayes and the Herron families were closely connected by ties of j friendship, and to Miss Herron Mr. and Mrs. Hayes were always "uncle" and "aunt." Miss Herron spent many of her holidays from school with the Hayeses In the White House. In a recent conversation Mrs. Taft said: "Nothing in my life exceeds the climax of human bliss which I felt as a girl of sixteen, when I was first entertain ed at the White House. The thing! that seemed remarkable to me was that, although the Hayeses occupied the most exalted position In the land, they were Just as they bad been at home in Ohio. They weren't changed a bit. I couldn't understand It then, for I supposed, of course, that -their manners must change with their advent to the White House to be in keeping with my conceptions of the alteration In their position in life." Irish Moss For Invalids. Those who suffer from stomach or intestinal trouble where the mucous membrane is irritated will find Irish moss soothing and palatable. It should be boiled until it produces a thick, nourishing jelly. It can be boiled with milk or water, although the former Is better. If one wishes It sweetened or flavored, any fruit juice that the palate will stand can be added to It. Coffee or chocolate prepared as for the table Is preferable to the juices and extracts and la better for the health. When making it for an Invalid who has chronic stomach trouble it is best to use the smallest amount of sugar. Tasty Luncheon Dish. An Americanized version of an Italian cabbage dish is this: Boil the cabbage tender, drain it, cut it Into pieces and arrange it in layers In a buttered baking dish with grated Parmesan cheese and buttered crumbs separating the layers. When the cabbage Is all used turn into the dish some beef stock or hot water flavored with beef, cover the top with buttered crumbs and bake until they are brown. To Keep Meat Warm. Place the dish containing the meat on a pan of boiling water, cover over with a metal dish cover, and over that place a cloth. The latter will prevent the gravy from drying up and keep the meat moist and juicy. Guaranteed Liquor Cure.

SHAKES DiCE AND LOSES HIS HEART Millionaire to Wed Cigar Stand Clerk. Detroit, Mich., Nov. 17. Miss Elizabeth Nichol3, until a few days ago clerk at the cigar stand in the Hotel Tuller, won a game of dice with Geo. Ij. Fish, manufacturer of automobile accessories and he lost both the price of two cigars and his heart. Three months ago he challenger her to s'aake dice for his after-dinner cigar. She accepted. She won. He smoked more cigars iu the week he was at the hotel than he had in the month previous. ; The result was she went to her home in Green Bay, Wi3., and her friends are waiting for the edding announcement cards. Fish, who is said to be a millionaire, lives in Long Beach, Cal. ABOUT GRASSHOPPERS. A Menace to Crop When They Appear In Great Numbers. The boys who walk through the fields and see a few grasshoppers jumping about little think perhaps that creatures apparently so harmless actu ally eat people out of house and home sometimes in the west. They come in great droves and multiply Into greater droves and then overrun the country and eat the crops. They were so bad in a certain county of Utah a few years ago that they defied all the efforts of the farmers to get rid of them, and the result was that all the crops were destroyed. The following year the farmers adopted a novel means of fighting the pests. They arranged a series of entertainments to be given In the several towns of the county, admission to which might be had on presentation at the door of a half bushel of grasshoppers as a "ticket" dead grasshoppers, of course. The notion caught and spread like a prairie tire, and at the first entertainment 150 people appeared, each with a half bushel of the pests. That county saved its crops. THROWING STONES. Why Girls Are Unable to Compete With Boys In This Pastime. It is hardly worth while to tell you that girls caunot throw stones like boys. You have all seen them try it and perhaps have laughed at their efforts, which was wrong, of course, but natural, for it really is a funny sight But it Is likely that you did not attribute their failure to the right cause. You thought perhaps that is. you boys thought that it was merely a girl's awkward attempt to Imitate a boy, but in that you were wrong, for it is a physical impossibility for a girl to throw with the free movement of the arm that a boy has because her collar bone is larger than a boy's and is set lower. This comes from a physician in a girls' college who has made a careful study of the matter, impelled thereto, it may be, by the importunity of the girls, who were ambitious to equal or excel the boys in this physical accomplishment, as tbey have done in many others. In any sport where this free use of the arm and shoulder is not required a girl may excel but she may as well give np all hope of ever throwing stones the same way as boys do. In spite of all this we find a girl now and then who can throw almost as far. Chicago News. The skins of animals were the earliest forms of money.

John Wagner, retired business man and wealthy automobile enthusiast, is under arrest on the charge that he sent threatening letters to well-known residents of this city. The arrest was made by Chief of Police McWeeny afvter he had been' consulted by 15 persons who had received death-threatening messages by special delivery. The letters were as follows: "You are warned on the penalty of death, to leave South Bend tomorrow and leave it forever, before the papers are on the streets tomorrow afternoon, as you will be sent to join who committed suicide by jumping off the Colfax evenue -bridge when a re-; volver was held to hij ear. Go; I don't want your blood on my hands." The letters were unsigned. The police refuse to give the name of the man mentioned in the letter of the names of those threatened. HOUSEWIFE SUGGESTIONS. To clean a copper kettle rub the kettle with powdered bath brick and paraffin and then polish it with dry brick dust or whiting. The green tips of celery or minced leaves of brusseis sprouts may be substituted for parsley when that Is not obtainable for garnishing. When pouring out tea one sometimes is annoyed to find the tea will run down the spout. To prevent this rub a little butter around the outside of the spoutWhen thin tumblers stick together ard there Is danger of breaking them do not try to pull them apart, but put theu. Into a nan of warm suds. In a short time they can be easily separated. If housewives who dislike to find worms when cutting apples would first put the fruit in cold water they would find that the worms would leave the apples and come to the surface of the water. When cleaning bouse look well to the picture wires, for they rust and often break apart near the screw eye. It Is best to put in new wire or cords on very heavy pictures. Do not place a mirror where it will be In the sunlight or near any intense heat, for both rnln the mercury, and it Is Impossible to have the glass replaced without considerable expense.
