Where Streets Are Eteep.
High In the mountains of northern
Mexico there Is a city of several thou
sand people where the sound of wheels
Ik never heard In the streets. It Is the
rich mining town of Catorce, where
millions of dollars worth of ore have
been found, and all this ore Is sent
out Into the great world beyond on
the backs of patient little burros or
donkeys. Tho streets rometlraes hug
deep precipices and are so narrow and
steep that no wheeled vehicle. can be
used on them. It la several miles to
the nearest railroad, and the only way
to reach this thriving town in the
clouds Is over dangerous mountain
trails. The Spaniards worked these
mines centuries ago, but they are as
rich as ever. The name Catorce is
Spanish for "fourteen," and legend
has tt that the town Is so called be
cause fourteen robbers, driven to the
mountains by the people, found the
rich mines and stayed there to work
thorn, finding mining to pay better
than robbery.
Women's War Organizations.
Cight organizations of women have
grown out of the American civil war
on the northern side, to say nothing
of those that exist in the south. Be
sides the Woman's Relief Corps, which
is the best known of them all and is
auxiliary to the Grand Army of the
Republic, there Is the Association of
Army Nurses, the Lndiea' Aid Society,
auxiliary to the Sons of Veterans; the
Daughters of Veterans, composed of
daughters and granddaughters of
unions soldiers; the Woman's Veteran
Relief Union, auxiliary to the Union
Veterans' Union; the Woman's Na
tional Association, auxiliary to the
Union ex-Prisoners of War, and the
Ladles' National Association of Na

A School For Mothers.
"The School for Mothers," originated
by Mme. Moll-Weiss In Bordeaux, is
being much discussed. There is a
question of starting similar educational
establishments in Paris and other
large centres lu France on the same
system, ami thinking people are ap
plauding the measures taken to further
the interests of humanity. Hitherto,
young girls were brought up to Ignore
the very things they should be taught.
They had no notion of the elementary
principles of hygiene, of the dressing
of Infants, of the management of
household expenses, the price of food,
etc. All this will be taught them, and
prepare them for the position of wives
and mothers. New York Globe.
A Poetry Pari jr.
When the sen-T makes It seem
delightful to be again indoors, girls
often like to have suggestions for
methods of making their meetings at
tractivesomething besides the usual
"talk and refreshments" what some
eminent man of letters in a waggish
way described as "giggle, gabble, gob
ble and git."
A series of little meetings, each In
celebration of some poet's birthday or
other anniversary, would be an excuse
lor making some interesting additions
to the usual program. Thus there
would be no great difficulty in arrange
ing a Shakespeare party or a Milton
party, in which quotations from tbe
works of either poet were used in in
vitations, dinner car.'s, bills of fare
and so no. Or an American poet
might be chosen. Oliver Wendell
Holmes would furnish Hues of a

Unique Collection.
A New lork woman has made a
unique collection of teapots. During
residence in Japan she managed to ac
cumulate more than a thousand exam'
pies, of whlch.no two are alike. There
were black pots and white, blue pots
and gray, big pots, little ones, pots In
glaze, in crackle, In yellow and browns
and reds and blacks. One was like an
old man, whose head formed the lid
and could be set at any angle. Others
were in tbe form of birds, beasts and
fowls, fish, frogs and actually a beetle
or two. Buddha, even, was pressed lu
to service as a model. There were
lotus-bud pots and other pots in sem
blance of a teahouse. One enormous
caldronlike affair held three gallons,
but at least a dozen specimens would
not have contained a , thimbleful.
Among the teapots were several Id tbe
form of swans, correct to the last curl
of neck and feather, nud of a size to
be bidden lu the baud. The materials
used for these treasures were Inlaid
silver, hammered copper, iron most
exquisitely wrought sllver-gllt alloys
and all the myriad sorts of Japanese
pattern. ..'
Brown and Purple.
The fashionable colors this season,
writes "Ninette" from Paris, are
browns in every shade; a new "vert

come the favorite In tbe fashion han

amethyst, pansy and fuchsia-purple
are the newest, especially tbe last-

A -Word About Vara.
Furs are a bit of a problem ror the
woman who wants to dress well on
a moderate turn of money. Tbey are
expensive to begin with, and vary in
style almost at often at frocks and
batt do. There it a new cut In
aleevet every winter, a dlffereut
length, a variation In collar and tome

Fart used, to be a real comfort You
packed them away with blankets and
curtains, and borax powder to outwit
moths, and all you bad t do In the
fall was to shake them, hang them
oat to air, and then be comfortable.
But nowadays women begin , in
August to wonder bow tbey can get
their fura up-to-date without bank'
WOMAN'S
REALM
rupting the family exchequer. For
furriers arc as heartless as plumbers
and almost as essential to happiness.
Of course this season's furs dlffet
a good deal from Inst season's, but here
is a word of comfort, they suggest
all sorts of practical schemes for the
artistic remodelling of old garments.
Almost all furs are trimmed or mad
up with other furs. Ermine Is com
bined with almost everything but
seal, deer and baby calf skin; chin
chilla combines with sent nicely,
especially the Russian chinchilla
which has a brownish cast. It is also
used with deer and mink, with Perslnn
lamb and tine dog skin. Usually tho
light fur is the trimming; but squirrel,
beaver, tlbet and mole skin are all
very smart trimmed with lamb or with
monkey skin.
When furs are not combined, any
one fur may be trimmed with sued
leather, or for dressy occasions with
embroidery. This use of leather it
new, and you have no Idea what a
smart touch it gives un old cout puf
over collar, cuffs or set in a double
breasted tailor vest.
It comes In all the dull vegetable
dyes, lu hunting green, golf red.
mahogany, bluet blue, navy blue and
every conceivable shade of brown, light
and dark. Sometimes it is em
broidered with outline work in gold
thread or silk.
The embroideries most In vogue foi
fur trimmings are straps from old
Chinese silk petticoats, to be found
in any Chinese shop, bands from
Fersian towels, strips of Russian oi
Hungarian peasant work and all tbe
rich Turkish, India and Jnpanese hand
embroideries. The colors are selected
to mntch the color scheme of fur and
lining as closely as possible. It would
be very easy for a clever girl to imi
tate Russian or Japanese embroidery
and make ber own trimming just to
match her coat.
There is one bit of good fortune in
this season's furs, they are fashionable
all lengths, and both loose and tight
fitting. You are In the style whether
your cont is a reefer, blouse or basque,
and your sleeves may have fulness nt
the shoulder, or a trifle at the elbow.
and the stole effect of last winter is
quite gone out.
Nearly all coats, plain as well as
fancy,- have light linings this season,
satin-brocade, damasse and brocha
silk and plain light twilled taffeta. As
this was somewhat the vogue in 190.1-4,
many women will unpack their furs
with a sense of dismay over the soiled
conditions of their pretty coat linings.
But there is no need to worry, for a
soiled lining that is still in good con
dition otherwise can be made as good
as new by the right sort of home clean
ing:. Linings for fur coats are fitted in
after the coat is quite finished and
may be removed without any ripping
beyond brush with a velvet whisk,
then regularly wash in a hike warm
suds of castlle soap and borax, two
teaspoonfuls of borax and a handful
of soap shavings to a bowl of water,
and let drip in the wind. When almost
dry roll over a curtain pole, pull taut
and pin, stand near the fire. Unroll
the next morning and you will fiud to
all intents and purposes a new coat
lining.
If tbe lining Is In a pale tint, son It
In cold borax water, two teaspoonfuls
to a basin of water, for half an hour
before washing.
It Is not impossible for the omateur
dressmaker to do over her own furs,
with a bint or two about the work.
Use always a seamless pattern; placo
it ou the leather side, tack with pins,
then cut without any seam allowance,
using a sharp pen knife. The seams
are ovei handed with tine stitches. It
Is wise to, first cut a cambric pattern,
see that it fits perfectly and make a
stiff paper pattern from that, as any
wrong cutting in fur work Is serious.
In piecing, make sure that the nap of
the fur runs In tbe same direction and
that your colort are what furriers
call "closs." Nwaf
For evening wear tbe palest tints
are chosen.
There will be a perfect craze for
Irish lace and fur combined,
Bilks will no doubt continue popular,
bat they will be of a heavier quality,
Satins and cushmeres will be the
most popular materials for both young
and old.
Black will not be worn to any ex
tent, excepting, possibly, tbe all-black
evening gown.
Leather enters conspicuously Into the
fashionable "motor" outfit both for
coats and headgear.
The envelope bag, so eagerly
heralded by tbe shops, bas found scant
favor with femininity.
Close fitting turbans of suede
trimmed, with quills or a harness
buckle are also good style. . . .

-.COMMERCIAL REVIEW.
R. G. Dun & Co.'t weekly review of
trade says:
Business improves steadily, and
there is no evidence of anxiety regard
ing the future. Payments are more
promptly met, tending to stimulate
preparations for coming trade, and the
disposition to limit purchases to im
mediate needs is gradually disappear
ing. Conservatism during the sum
mer and autumn had a beneficial ef
fect, reducing stocks to a low point.
As demand broadens this scarcity of
supply produces pressure for quick
delivery and prices, are strengthened
Aside from inflation caused by specu
lation there is no better sign of com
mercial progress than advancing com
modity markets.
All the leading branches of manu
facture are in a better position, with
noteworthy activity at iron furnaces,
woolen mills and footwear factories.
Fall River cotton mills are still idle,
because of the wage controversy, bul
many other Mew England plants have
resumed and the outlook tor this in
dustry is more favorable than at any
time since it became demoralized by
inflated raw material last year. Traffic
reports are satisfactory, railway earn
ings in October exceeding last year's
by 7.6 per cent. Foreign commerce
returns at this port for the last week
show a gain of $789,276 in exports and
a loss of $297,752 in imports as com
pared with 1903.
Commercial failures this week in the
United States are 229, against 2.13 last
week, 215 the preceding week and
846 the corresponding week last year.
Failures in Canada number 27, against
88 last week, 39 the preceding week
and 22 last year.

WILL PRESERVE FOOD LONGL
New Method That Promises to Give
the Best Results.
An Ingenious method of preserving
food hat recently been devised which
it based on the fact that powdered
gelatin, or thin sheets of the same
material, not only do not spoil, but
are capable of protecting Incorporated
substances from bacteria, moisture,
and other agencies which bring about
decomposition. Thus to make a con
centrated beef extract, tea or coffee,
extract, aoup, etc., the liquid is mixed
hot with 1 per cent of primary gela
tin, which differs from the commercial
article In not having the gluelike taste
of the latter.
After cooling a Jelly is formed, and
this Is cut Into thin films and dried by
a current of cold air until it becomes
brittle. When this condition Is reach
ed the sheets are then reduced to a
fine powder, which will keep Indefin
itely. While It will absorb moisture
It does not do so to a degree to oc
casion decomposition, and the moist
ure Is subsequently given off in dry
air. The powder, while likely to cake,
forms a brittle cake, not interfering
with Its use, while It Is too hard for
insects. When placed iu warm water
it dissolves Immediately, and is thus
ready for rse. If heated above the)
temperature of boiling water before
packing all disease or other germs
will be killed, and to secure tbe best
results the powder should be packed
airtight. Such a concentrated food
possesses many advantages, and is
susceptible of wide application, at
upon explorations. Harper's Weekly.
Photograph In Hen't Egg.
Son.ewhere, probably plodding
away In a rural barnyard, unbonored
and unsung If, Indeed, her labors
have not been ended in the prosale
boiling pot Is a photographic hen
who embellishes the interior of her
eggs with landscape and motion re
productions. That at least she has done It once
can be testified to by the family of W.
H. Herring, a weaver, who lives on
2921 North Third street.
Mr. Herring can, moreover, back up
his testimony with an undlsputable
exhibit In the shape of the broken
egg, with the picture inside. Mr.
Herring cannot, however, Indicate the
identity of the hen who wrought the
wonder for he got the egg in a lot
from the store.
In Its exterior appearance there was
nothing remarkable about the hen s
work. It was Just an egg of the com
mon or garden variety. It was cook
ed with others for breakfast boiled
In the shell.
When Mr. Herring's little daughter,
Anna broke the shell in half and pour
ed the contents into her egg cup, her
attention was arrested by a peculiar
formation on the albumen lining of
tho lower shell.
"Why, It looks like a picture," she
exclaimed.
The other members of the family
studied it and they, too, agreed that
the outlines of a photograph were
clearly visible. An Inquirer reporter
later Inspected the curiosity inside
the shell resolved themselves into a
distinct picture.
It was a photograph showing two
buildings, evidently stores or fac
tories. On the roof of one of them was a
sign, several letters of which were
distinct. On the street between the
buildings was a wagon with two
horseB attached and tho figures of sev
eral persons.
Mow such a freak of nature could be
wrought is beyond explanation. Albu

When the doctor takes bis own med
icine and the grocer eats the food ho
recommends some confidence comes
to the observer.
A grocer, of Ossian, Ind., bad a prac
tical experience with food worth any
one's attention.
He says: "Six years ngo I became
so weak from stomach and bowel
trouble that I was Uiially compelled to
give up all work in my store, and, in
fact, all torts of work for ubout four
yean. The lust year I. was confined
to the bed nearly all of the tltqe, and
umcb of the tlmi unable to retain food
of any sort on my stomach. My bow
els were badly constipated continual
ly, and I lost In weight from 103
pounds down 'to 88 pounds.
"When at the bottom of tbe. ladder
I cbauged treutment entirely and start
e1 In ou Crape-Nuts and cream for
nourishment I used absolutely noth
ing but this for about three months. I
slowly Improved until I got out of bed
aud began to mova about.
"I have been Improving regularly
and now In tbe past two years have
been working about fifteen bourt a
day In the ttore and never felt better
Id my life.
. "During these two years I bave nev
er missed a breakfast of Grape-Nuts
and cream, and often bave it two
meats a day, but the entire breakfast
it alwayt made of Grape-Nuts and
cream alone.
"Since commencing tbe use of Grape
Nuts I bave never used anything to
stimulate tbe action of tbe bowels, a
thing I bad to do for yeart, but thlt
food keept me regular and In fine
thape, and I am growing stronger and
heavier every day.
"My customers, naturally, btve been
Interested and I am compelled to an
swer a great many questions about
Grape-Nuts.
"Somo people would think that a
simple dish of Grape-Nuts and cream
would not carry one through to the
noonday meal, but It will aud In the

Miss Gannon, Secy
Art Association, tells
J Miss Gannon, Secy Detroit Amateur
do to avoid pain and suffering caused by
female troubles.
'Dear Mrs. Pinkham: I can conscientiously recommend LydlaE.
Pinkham's) Vegetable ComiwHiud to tiiose of my sisters puttering with
female weakness and the troubles which so often befall women, 1 suf
fered for months 'with general weakness, and felt so weary that I had
hard work to keep up. I had shoot injr pains, and was utterly miserable.
In my distress I was advised to use L.vdiu K. Pinkliain's Vegetable
Compound, and it was a red letter day to me when I took the first dose,
for at that time my restoration Logan. In sir weeks I was a changed, t
woman, perfectly well in every respect. I felt so elated and happy that '
I want all women who suffer to get well as I did." Miss Gcila Gannojc,
859 Jones St., Detroit, Mich., Secretary Amateur Art Association,
It Is elenrly shown In this j-ounpr Indy'a letter that Lydia B.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compo und will certainly cure the suffering
of women ; and when one considers that Miss Gannon's letter is
only one of the countless hundreds which we are continually
I)ublishlng in the newspapers of this country, the great virtue of Mrs. Pink
uim's medicine must be adrnitn-d by ull ; and"for the absolute cure of all kiuda
of female ills no substitute can possibly take its place. Women should bear
this important fact in miud when they go into a druir store, and be sure not.
to accept anything thnt is cliiimi d to bo " just as good" as Lydia K. Pink
ham's Vegetable Compound, for no other medicine for female ills hat
made so many actual cures. tv. - , . . a
How Another Sufferer Was Cured. '
"Dear Mrs. Pinkham: I cannot praise your wonderful remedies
enough, for they have done me more good than all the doctors 1 have
had. For tho last eight years and more I suffered with female troubles,
was very weak, could not do my housework, also had nervous pros
tration. Some days I would remain unconscious for a whole day and
night. My neighbors thought I could never recover, but, thanks to
your medicine, I now feel like a different woman.
"I feel very grateful to you and will recommend Lydia E. Pink
ham's Vegetable Compound to till. It has now been four years since
I had the lust spell of nervous prostration. I only weighed ninety
eight pounds at that time ; now I weigh one hundred and twenty-three.
"I consider your Vegetable Compound the finest remedy made.
Thanking you many times for the benefit I received from your medii-ine,
I remain, ours truly, Mas. .1.11. Farmer, '.W09 Elliott Ave., fct. Louis, JIo.
llememher Mrs. Pink-ham's advice Is free and all sick women
are foolish if they do 11'it ask for it. She speaks from the widest
experience, and hits helped multitudes of women.

BRINGING UP A PRESIDENT.
olnter for Ambitious Mothers of the
Coming Generation.
It U a fortunate thing to be tall
and straight and of a viking's shoul
ders where one strives frr political
popularity, since the hopeless per cent
of people come by their opinions
through the eye. It Is what they see
rather than what they hear that turns
to be impressive.
Washington was equal to a running
broad Jump of 22 feet; Jefferson lifted
1,000 pounds with his bare hands, and
was known as the Strong Man of Al
bemarle. The world has had Its Caesars and
Napoleons, but It adopted these little
people slowly and after triul.
The first thing to remember In
bringing up a president Is his health;
his stomach should be thought of in
often as his head. A dyspeptic would
find the road to the white ho-.ise fti!!
of double difficulties, and he woul-'
make a dangerous president nay, l;c
might even invite impeachment.
A good stomach and a good heart
go far as raw material In the construe
tlon of a best man. They are tbe bed
plates for that engine called the mind.

keeping HhX Billionaire Might Own.
It Is easy enough to talk of a billion
dollars, but what does It really mean?
The City of Boston affords a good ex
ample. On May 1 of this year the to
tal assessed valuation of Boston real
estate was $1,006,122,900. Of this
amount $007,109,450 was on land, and
$339,103,460 on buildings.
Having these figures In mind, then,
we can bave some idea of what it is
to be a billionaire.
