HTicTTY TEA COZIES.
T"cfnl nml Ornamental Adjonets to the
(up That Cheer
Every housekeeper wants at least one
y7.y, and if she bo n lady of leisure and
nrtistie taste? with means to pratifyher
inolinatiooa she will have one to match
each tea serviee. According to Modern
Priscilla, for her gold and white china
Flic will fashion a oozy of creamy silk
embroidered with Japanese gold thread,
nnri if tin- china have any especial dec
oration sin will copy the same design
on the cozy. For a dainty set of Sevres
or Limoges she will make a cozy of ex
quisite brocad". hero also as far as possi
ble matching the design. For the simple
bine and white ware of Ami rioan or
Chinese manufacture there will bo ono
in blue and white china silk or crape
and for the Japanese sot onortf jnpaneso
Bilk, with bands of velvet of a harmo
ni",iu color across the bottom.
As fur the form of the cozy, the sim
plest is the moat popular and might bo
biiofly described a.? being exactly like
the larger half c if m egg in shape. Conic
al cozies composed of from four to eight.
BOOtionS are more troublesome to make,
and, except intho ease of a teapot of un
usual rize and shape, not so protly.
Creamy white sarin sheeting worked
with a Dresden pattern of small flowers,
edged with a band of gold colored vel
vet and finished with a gold cord makes
ihont as splendid a cozy as can be de
sired. Old bine india silk, painted with
aclondy gold band of goldalxe.it the bot
tom and seams, or finished at the bottom
with a velvet band and lined with silk
)f any neutral tint, is extremely pretty
md sorviwahlo as well. Silkoline makes
a pretty cover for the outside in be
taken off and washed. If one of those
made with n puff of silk ovef tho top,
matching in shade the flower in tho silk
oline and laced across with baby ribbon,
it is charming indeed.
One of the most serviceable of cozies
is undo from chamois of a soft, medi
um brown tone. It is embroidered with
daffodils and across tho lower edge is a
baifrt of nntarnishable gold braid se wed
on with fancy stitches in brown silk. It
is lined'with sill; of the same color as
tho skin, and tho cord is also of brown.
A Word of Caution.
Tho New York Tribune says: Now
that black moires hate become fashion
a nblo it is well to recall tho fact that
those goods are not equal to satin or
faille franeais. in durability. The process
of watering them, which necessitates
tho use of heat, tends to weaken the silk

tioned quality. A good quality of moiro
rill probably wear almost as well as

Isaoiro antique or tho softer moiro fr.nn

Commissioners W. II. Stnrdevant, E.
II, Chase and Ira D. Shaver, who wore
appointed somo time ago by tho court
to puss npon the question of creating a
now township out of portions of Kings
ton, Extftor and Franklin townships,
filed their report with tho clerk of the
courts Saturday. Their report is ad
verse to the proposed division. It was
intended to begin the now township
at a point in the rear of Luzerne Bor
ough, the eastern line extending in a
northwesterly direction about four
mlh's to the Exeter township lino,
thence nlonu the southern line of the
latter almost to the Franklin lino.
Tho town council will meet in rogu
lar session in the Town ball this even
ing and tho indications are that a
lively mooting it will bo, As is well
known, considerable friction exists
among the firemen and certain mem
bers of the council over the action of
tho former in refusing to lot the latter
have any voice in the election of a
chief for the fire department. Tho or
dinance which governed tho borough
for tho last twenty years and which
has been declared behind the time by
the present council, provides that the
election of a chief to bo legal must be
cunfirmod by the council. The election
of J. H. Mullen by the dele
gates of the several fire com
panies in convention assembled
and the refusal of tho chairman
of the firo committee to present his
Dame to tho council for confirmation,
alleging as his reason that tho election
was not carried out in compliance with
tho ordinance cansod Mr. Mullin to re
sign, thereby precipitating the fight
It was doubly sealed at the convention
last week when the firemen sleeted
(teorgo Llewellyn and passed a resolu
tion totally iunoring the borough
council. Should the council insist on
having a voice in the olection, there
is no telling where the trouble will
end. If they felt so disposed in order
to force recognition from the firotnsn
they could prevent tho nao of the plugs,
thereby practically shutting off the
water sujply. In sneh an event it is
quito likely tho citizens Wonld tako 11
hand in the matter, and then what J
Evidently either ono or the other will
yet take water.
Late Saturday night John Howell
and family, of Wynning avonne, West
Plttston, were aroused from their slum
bers by somebody knocking nt the front
door. In responso to the query what
was wanted tho visitors stated they
wanted to get in. On looking out an
upstair window Mr. Howell observed
tlioro were three men. Upon being re
fused admittance the visitors sought to
frighten the inmates by saying they
would fill them full of holes. Mr. How
ell feeling the situation was becoming
somewhat strained repaired to his ar
senal ond abstracted therefrom a min
iature cannon. Tho intruders having
all this time kept up a constant tirado
of blasphemy nnd abuse caused Mr.
Howell to fire three shots. Tho shots
were directed heavenward, but had as
much effect as if directed earthward,
for the tlireo fellows took to their heels
and were lost sight of in tho daiKness.

Bathing Costumes That Aro Things of

Tho time of year has arrived when every

assumes un inviting glossiness of surface
nnd warm limpidity of depth that tempt

el or sufficiently active swimmers to feel
iv physical discomfort from Immersion in
cold water there is no amusement quite so
exhilarating. All children delight in dab
bling in water, and perhaps this is a Sur
vival of childish tastes. At any rale, it-is
a very Innocent pleasure and u very level
ing one. We all look nllko In tho water,
as far as distinctions of beauty and society
gpj provided ve tire nil real water lovers
nnd do not. merely pretend to bathe. Tho
Wot hair of the mistress ami of the maid
looks equally like seaweed, and the nose of
tho patrician ami of the proletariat bums
regardless of class dlstlnotlons. Many per
sons who cannot bathe In fresh Wider can go
into salt water with Impunity because of
its vigorous and stimulating quality, A
pretty bathing suit keeps Its licnuty in
fresh water far longer than when it is
worn Into the ocean, hut that Is the only
point in which tho advantage does not rest
with salt water. One dues not swim quito
so rapidly in the latter, but one keeps up
longer and with less fatigue on account of
its buoyant quality. An Illustration is
given of a white flannel bathing costume.
The bodice, which Is made with n yoke, Is

Influrneo of Keilgion In Mexico.
Tho mingling of the offices of religion
with the affairs of everyday life empha
sizes the Sixteenth centurjpfeeling which
in Mexico is so pointedly suggested by the
strong houses and the barred doors. It is
a feeling that gives to the country a potent
nnd a peculiar charm, under the spell ol
which como gladly those who seek refuge
there from the later civilization that is
glared upon by electricity and that is
driven by steam. And tho charm works
most powerfully upon the fortunate few
who dwell in this region of rest long enough
really to understand the whole of its excel
lent meaning, and to know how true and
how cordial is Mexican hospitality whim
once tho barred doors arc opened wide.
They do not open easily, these doors; but.
having been opened, they never are closed

Absence of MIliU.
Some people find it hard, in using the
telephone, to realize that they are not face
to faco with tho person they are addressing.
A prominent merchant in the capital
city of a stato sat nt his desk one hot day
in July. In order to secure some degree ol
couifort he had taken oil bis coat and his
cullar and necktie.
A Clerk came into the room.
"His excellency tho governor wishes to
speak with you through tho telephone,"
said the clerk.
"The governor! Dear mcl" said the mer
chant.
Ho rose, hastily put on bis collar, his
necktie and his coat, gave his hairastroke,
