A curious custom w ob,rTd
when the Forrest mill, Bacup, was
restarted lat week, after having
changed bands.
About forty persona assembled In
one of the rooms, and a "consecra

afterward prayera were offered for
the success of the undertaking.
This Is the first service of its kind

Car Floor Fell With Passengers.
A curious accident happened re
cently to the Venice-Milan express a
few miles from Milan. The axles of
two wheels of the lust carriage broke
and the wheels became detuched from
the carriage, carrying away a part of
the flooring with them. The passen
gers, feeling the floor give way, clung
to the baggage rack and anything else
they could catch hold of. Being tin
able to sound the alarm signal, the
express continued its way. When at
last the engine driver noticed there
was something wrong and pulled up,
almost all the passengers in the
wrecked car fainted. Some of them
were seriously hurt.

produced by the coffee sho drank.
"I was also grievously afflicted with
headaches and indigestion," she says,
"which I became sutlsfled were like

Six months ago I quit Its use alto
gether and began to drink Postum
Food Coffee, with the gratifying re
sult that my headaches have disap
peared, my digestion has been restored
and I have not bad a recurrence of
chills and fever for more than three
months. I have no doubt that it was
Postum that brought me this relief, for
I have used no medicine while this
Improvement has been going on." (It
was really relief from congestion of the
liver caused by coffee.)
"My daughter has been as great a
coffee drinker as I, and for years was
afflicted with terrible sick headaches,
which often lasted for a week at a
time. She Is a brain worker and ex
cessive application together with the
headaches began to affect her memory
most seriously. She found no help in
medicines and the doctor frankly ad

The practice of uniforming our ser
vants and ofHcigls proceeds space.
Middle-aged people ciin recall t'.ie ob
jections that were made to the practice
until well after the war. Possibly it
was the multitude of uniform put into
lrculatlon by that momentous Inel
Jent nnd the honor which nttached to
'hem, that reconciled the public to the
ifension of the habit of distinctive
lress. As the town drunkard hnd no
:baracterlstic nppnrcl except bis rags,
io the town eonstnhle considered that
W tin star was authority enough when
le arrested I he a foresaid, nnd as ser
vants In provincial (owns ate with the
family the Idea of putting theni Into
Jvery was undreamed of.
But while we talked largely of the
.'quality of men In a democracy and
;he disgrace of wearing n dress which
lenoted n service (hat none thought
I lisgrnecful or they would not have ac
cepted It the European fashion of cos
turning people according to Iheir cm
ploymcnts has obtained such bold on
us that we should object loudly If It
were discontinued. As the butler Is
fouimonly n more distinguished look
ing person than most of the guests be
hns to wear buttons to prevent him
self from becoming a subject of morti
fying coniidences, anil as the district
messenger is a youth of headlong
habits, he Is compelled to put himself
In blue, so that he shall have right of
way when he surges through onr
streets eager to break records in speed
5f delivery. We have extended this
habit of uniforming till now we recog
nize not only our soldiers, sailors, mu
rines and policemen, tis such, but our
letter ,arrlers, customs officers, build
ing inspectors, conductors, train hands,
ferrymen. Janitors, gatekeepers, guides,
nurses, wardens, street cleaners nnd
not only do clubs nnd families uniform
'.heir servants, but many shopkeepers
nd corporations require their employes
lo wear a striking dress. Brooklyn

Some Funny Fashions.
Pome of the winter fashions are go
ing lo be mighty foolish for a girl
earning wages to follow. There will
'jp every chance for her to make her
eif conspicuous and ridiculous if she
has a mind to.
Her hnt, which was perched on fop
)f an enormous pompiidore, was of the
most fly-away order. It bad so many
wings on it tlmt it is a wonder it did
not fly off her bend.
Her waist was a cheap white Ince
ind she wore a string of pearls around
Uer neck.
Her skirt was of lli'n black material,
and the underskirt was far too scant
for the outer.
She had patent leather shoes on with
heels three inches high.
She Is employed In un office, and that
was her business costume.
Every man she passed stared at her
and turned to look after her. The
glances were not those of admiration.
Her clothes were conspicuous, un
ladylike and unbecoming.
It's a bad plan to buy a thing just
because it happens to be stylish. The
wise girl chooses what Is becoming
and sets Uer own styles.
When she can have but a limited
v.urdrobe it Is a great mistake to have
her tilings so conspicuous that every
nno will get to know them. The lust
thing a well bred woman wants to be
Is conspicuous. Loud dressing Is nl
most as bad as loud behavior.
Do not spend nil your money on your
hat uud dress and not have enough left
to buy a warm cent. Tho mcst be
witching hats will not do you much
good If your nose is red.
Buy sensible, heavy-soled shoes, nnd
keep your feet warm and dry. Patent
leather it only for "dress" occasions,
If you are a girl who goes to work,
bring all your common sense to bear on
tho question and put temptation in the
way of foolish fashions behind you.

Ilraiity ami Ae.
Dr. Crlstlnu, of Paris, who gives
bounty culture and facial blemish lee
Lures, says that women at fifty are in
the prime of life.
"In this age nothing Is more absurd
thnn for a woman to imagine her
power to please nnd attract her hus
band and hold her own socially has
ceased because she has attained mid
dle age," says Dr. Crlstlon.
"The woman of brain und culture,
who bus the self control nnd perse
rerance to combat obesity and the men
tal and scientific equipment to defy
wrinkles should feel no fear of ad
vancing time should, Indeed, regard It
as u gciK'i'ul trleud with added gifts
to bestow.
"In every age there havo been ex
amples of mature women who have
held their swuy socially uud sentimen
tally. Cleopatra, Helen of Troy, As
pasla, were all women who had seeu
two scorn years when their greatest
prowess was felt. Josephine was forty
years old before she- became Umpress,
'and her sway was suprome and 1'or
beuuty pre-eminent at that age,
j.Madume de Mainteuou was advanced

iold and young men in her middle life,
'and tho womk-rful Ninon d l'Euclos
kept her charm of manner Hnd beatify
of person until she was eighty.
"Mmr. Pnttl, who celebrated her six
ty-first birthday last spring, has no
wrinkles, gray hairs or crowsfeet, but
looks like n young woman of thirty.
Her Majesty, Queen Alexandra. Is sixty
years old, and Is a perfect beauty and
looks as well as either of the daugh
ters." Dr. Crlstlon, who had the pleas
ure of seeing her often, says lhl of
Her Majesty: "She Is a beautiful,

a charming grandmother. She never
uses powder, creams and seldom wears

Tenement Lace Making. e;
"A thoroughly interesting experiment
In lace making has been carried out
this summer at i!recnwlch bouse, on
New York's lower West Side, under
the direction of Miss Kathnriro Lord,"
says the enrrent number of Charities.
"Those who know Hip plcttircsquo
stories which nre woven Into exquisite
luces which have come down to us
know tbat In several Instances the
art of their fashioning has been almost.
If not quite, lost.- Many of the Unlian
women In the tenement dlstrlcls nre
skillful laep makers, but their materials
are more often than not of the rough
est sort nnd of colors nbnniinalile.
Lnep making has been carried on In
connection with the work at South End
house, Boston, until It Is ;uitr past the
experimental stjige, and the sr.itvss 'if
this summer's venture leads those who
have been watching It to believe that
such Is the case niso In New York.
Over thirty girls and women have been
Instructed In one or more kinds of
lace making; further, seven ov e'u'bt
expert lace makers have been given
employment.
"The pint) Miss Lord litis followed
has been to purchase the thread nnd
give it out. nnd then buy the lae froM
the workers much nfler the fashion In
which nil Industry was carried on in
the domestic stage. With tln younger
girls the Instruction lias, of course,
been very elementary; but with a
skilled French embroiderer, with tb"
Italian women who bad sptuit their
time on crude braid laces nnd the like,
and with some Scotch women not un
familiar with Hie craft, very little In
struction has been Deeded to tench
the finer pntlvrns. It is believed that
when a sufficient number of workers
are employed, so that contracts with
merchants can be tilled reliably, steady
work can be insured women nnd girls
to take up Ince making in their homos
and to mend old lace. For cripples irid
for women with children, whn'canuot
go out to factories readily, lace making
offers nn opportunity for work. It Is
not to be compared with the ordinary
sweating Industries that carry house
hold manufacture to such dire lengths.
"This summer's experiment was car
fled on through the contribution!) of
a group of young Xcw York women.
In developing the permanent work this
winter, with headquarters at fiieen
wicli house, Miss Lord will carry on
work with groups of women In ccn
nection with several of the other neigh
borhood centres."
FRILLS .
A novelty which combines comfort
and common sense Is the long cloth
glove from London.
One sees chiffon, net nnd other deli
cti to fabrics scalloped nnd bound with
the lightest of ribbons or-silk.
A white figured net gown was made
with nn accordion pleated skirt of
white mousselluo de sole, the net form
ing the long over-dress.
Very charming is u lace blo;i.-o In
cream color with separate flowers and
leaves dipped in pale tints and applied
In graceful designs, says Vogue.
A little invention for the neck Is out.
It Is a. little velvet stole with short,
broad ends. It Is worn inside the cant,
as n sort oi cnesc protector, ne'tcc lis
I name of "uintfler."
Every one must have notie.-d tho re
vival of the scallop as a dress decora
tion. .Many of the handsomest broad
cloth street gowns nre thus decorated,
the effect given being one of graceful
flufflncss.
In the early seventies gowns were
trimmed with dozens and dozens of
yards of narrow ruffle or pleatings.
We are not cutting up materials in such
reckless fashion nowadays, but tho
narrow pleating have been revived,
and no one knows precisely where
they will stop.
It must be a sort of annoyance to the
fashionable that again tho lines of the
figure have changed, and the too, too
solid flesh lias now to be by some
means compressed. Hips are very un
fashionable. In fact, to be truly
smart, one must have a figure like the
traditional bean-pole, very long and
quite straight up and down.
How a Poreuplna Fights,
A dog never attacks a porcupino but
once. If ho survives, the lesson is
enough to inMko him wise iu tho way
of porcupines ever after.
Ordinarily, and when at ease, tho
quills und hoary hair of tho porcupino
lie flat upon him back, but when an
gered ho vrlrtb up, aud. every part
of him, even to hi toes und tho tip ot
his nose, Is protected by the armament
of sharp quills. His plan of righting ir
wholly on tho defensive, and so do
struclivo is his voritnblo bayonet lino
to tho attacking one that evcu tho
bear, the panther and tho lynx will
Hot molest him. '
That; is why tlto porcupino knows no
f;ur, und why he comes abruptly Into
camp aud calmly Investigates things,
tie has ret to letirn that man and his

CRISIS OF GIRLHOOD
A TIME OF PAIN AND PERIL
Iflss Emma Cola Says that Lydla E
Plnkham's Vegetable Compound has
Saved Her Life and 'Made Her Well
How many lives of beautiful young
girls have been sacrificed just as they
were ripening into womanhood I How
many irregularities or displacements
have been developed at this important
period, resulting in years of suffering 1
Girls' modesty and oversenaitiveness
often puzzle their mothers and baffle
physicians, because they withhold their
confidence at this critical period.
A mother should come to her child's
aid and remember that Lydia E. Pink
ham's Vegetable Compound will at this
time prepare the system for the coming
change and start the menstrual period
in a young girl's life without pain or
irregularities.
Miss EmmaColeof Tullahoma, Tenn.,
writes :
Dear Mrs. Pinkham :
" I want to tell you that I am enjoying bet
ter health than I have for years," and I owe
it all to Lydia E. I'liikhain's Vegetable Com
pound. " When fourteen years of age I suffered al
most constant paiu, and for two or three
years I had soi-enees and pain in my side,
headaches and was diazy and nervous, and
doctors all failed to help me.
" Lydia K. I'inkliam's Vegetable Compound
was recommended, and after taking it my
health began to improve rapidly, and 1 think
it saved my life. I sincerely hope my experi
ence will be a help to other girls who are pass
ing from girlhood to womanhood, for I know
your Compound will do as much fo.- them."
If you know of any young girl who is
Kick and needs motherly advice ask her
to write Mrs. 1'inkham, Lynn, Mass.,
and she will receive free advice which
will put her on the right road to astroug,
healthy and happy womanhood.
