Thero arc some conveniences about
a postal savings bank system, like that
of Canada, for Instance, which must
be highly appreciated by certain
classes of depositors. A person may
open an account at one postofflce and
continue It at any number of other of
fices, depositing wherever he may hap
pen to be, and yet have the whole
amount at his command at any one
office should be wish to withdraw It.
This Is made easy by the fact that bis
account is kept at the postmaster gen
eral's office In Ottawa. A family mov
ing from one place to another does not
have to draw its: money from the sav
ings bank and carry It along at the
risk of robbery. It finds the amount
at Its disposal wherever It goes. A

Orville Wrlnhl'a Schoolboy Essay. ',
"I was in high school at Dayton at
the same time as Orvllle Wright, now
famed as Inventor of the aeroplane,"
remarked Ernest P. Crummel. "We
were not in the same class, but I re
member one essay that Wright pre
pared for one of tho literary pro
grammes. It was about airships, and
Wright read from his paper that the
time would como when men would
navigate the air.
"He read on so enthusiastically that
tho other students nil laughed good '
naturedly at him for writing along I
such foolish lines'. They all told him 1
a man would be crazy to try to ride '
an airship. But, as everybody knows
today, Wright's youthful enthusiasm
has carried him along to success and
fame In just that very direction."

. FASHIONABLE FURS.
Quaint Old 8tyles Revived In the New
Stoles and Muffs.
So widespread has become the vogue
of furs that no longer nre they re
garded as a luxury, but, on tho con
trary, as quite au important detail
of the toilet. Because of this wide
spread vogue and the necessity for
supplying the demand for pelts the
four corners of tho earth have literally
been scoured, and wonders have been
accomplished by means of dyeing and
plucking. One sees the plebeian
American red fox, by no means a
comely beast In its native condition,
transformed into a marvel of ebon
blackness by expert coloring. A proc
ess of dyeing has made an amazing
change in squirrel, which In plain gray
proved so unbecoming to most women
when it was Introduced six years ago.
But the most wonderful treatment of
all is that which transforms the Amer
ican muskrat's pelt Into a fur which
cannot readily be distinguished from
sealskin.
Never before has there been a season
when the fashions in furs have been
so distinctly different for matrons and
debutantes, for not only is the wearing
of sable and broadtail confined almost
exclusively to the. cider set of women,
but it is noticeable that few of them
are in favor of mink or caracul and
that In reserving lynx for themselves
they are graciously allowing their Jun
iors to have prior call on sealskin.
This rule applies especially to fur
coats Intended for street use, and of
these there are a largo number of styles
to suit the Individual purse.
Stoics are of infinite variety. Some
of them are so long that they reach
far below the knees and at the back
cover the shoulders halfway to the
waist line, in fact, so large are they
that sleeves would almost be sufficient
to transform them into coats. The
flat, broad stole is always at Its best
In a short haired fur, but it Is seen fre
quently lu lynx, black fox nnd stone
marten as well as iu Persian paw. In
sabled squirrel and In mole.
The novelty of the season Is the rug
muff, which can only be developed In
a pelt having naturally a small head
and tall, such as are seen with sable,
mink and ermine. In the rug muffs a
row of tiny heads overlap a similar
DnutcTonm coat in sealskin.
number of tails, and when outspread
It becomes simply a flat oblong, hand
somely lined and conveniently fitted
with several pockets.
Some of the so called "tailored" fur
coats are literally In three pieces-
muff, jacket and detachable lncroyable
collar, with or without deep lapels uo
neatb the throat and fastening with
large ornamental buttons. It goes
without saying that such outfits ap
peal strongly to the women of econom
leal tastes. The illustration shows a
stunning dlrectolre coat In sealskin.
Trimmings a Girl Can Make.
This Is to be a season of trimmings,
and the girl who Is clever enough to
make her own can save her purse,
One of the easiest for home mnnufac'
turo Is thick cjton cord covered with
oins buk sewea on me macuiue uuu
then used in the form of braiding.
As the cord Is large, the wotk is
quickly done when sewed Into curves,
scrolls or circles. It is specially ef
fectlve on net or rooussellne. It Is
sewed by band with loose stitches.
Another showy trimming that can
be made at home is from bands of
flowered silk cut to outline flowers nnd
appllqued to white or ecru mousseltne
de sole or chiffon. The raw edges nre
finished with a gold or sliver cord,
very narrow, or with a ruffle of the
narrowest ribbon that can be bought.
When Hanging Curtains.
A house decorator gives this impor
tant advice to women who arc arrange
lng their homes. They should not
hang curtains of one color against a
wall paper of nsother color. They
should not Join carpets of opponlto
colors. They should not put different
papers on the walls of adjoining roon.s
which have wide archrways or folding
doors between. These are simple Bug
gestlons, but they mean a great deal
The woman who Is guided by them
will arrive at much better results than
she who Ignores them. When It Is not
possible to havo the carpets alike in
rooms that are Joined by wide open
lngt a rug should be laid over the long
earn to hide It.
