How to ba Popular,

land as though you were glad to see
the owner, look blm In the eye, nnd
fire hlra a smile from your heart."
This Is a ewe-enough recipe. It has
been used a million times from AVcl
blades down to day before yester

the greatest frauds in Christendom
to subserve their own ends. The

land Painted Slippers.
Here is good news for the artistic
girl. Let her get out her paint tubes
tmd set to work on painting kid slip
pers to match her summer frocks. A
White kid slipped of the latest vogue
ts adorned with pnlnted forget-me-nots.
Naturally small blossoms are
the best to select for reproduction,
but some of the larger flowers might
be conventionalized and worked up
Into good slipper subjects.
Very artistic, too, are the slippers
of brocade outlined with dull gold
Or silver threads. The cloth of steel
Uppers are equally pretty and may
be worn with a gown of almost any
color. Black velvet pumps are one
of the novelties of the summer for
wear with linegrle gowns. By the way
the new pumps have ankle-straps
which make them much more com
fortable than the old models, which
kept slipping off. Laced sandals will
be used for dres3 shoes. They are fas
cinating and have a atemlency to de
crease the size of the foot because
the toes are short. Indianapolis

Word Values to Children.
If the parents in general realized
that as a child first learns to con
nect a certain idea with a certain
word, eo he goes through life ham
red our helped by that word, more
care would be used when explana
tions of these must be given.
Weare all of us wanting dictionar
ies, teaching the young idea bow to
hoot, and when In after life he
hoots wrong we are apt to blame
very one. but ourselves, forgetting
that long, long ago when the hopeful
In question was considered more as
wonderful toy than a thinking ma
chine, we had given some hurried,
forced definition that was gospel xo
the loyal little ears that took it In.
Care in defining a new word to a
Child often opens up & whole new field
of observation, and it should be done
jM conscientiously as possible. A
Straight "I don't know" is preferable
to a careless or slipshod definition.
Look it up in a dictionary or ency
clopedia, and take him with you
when you do. He will gain confi
dence in you each time and will soon
learn to save you the trouble. Phila

The Woman's National Game.
There is always something impres
sive about a crowd that Is swayed by
single emotion; you get an impres
sion of force. These women, who a
few moments ago had been quiet shop
pers, formed a mob. They swayed
antf pushed! as though moved by a
common Impulse toward a tablo
where wevo the embroideries. From
there throats came a little dull growl,
a curious noise the whisper of a
mob. The noise of a mob in joy or
in anger, or in fright, or just restless
murmur as it waits, is different from
any other noise that comes from the
human throat quite distinct, of a cu
rious animal timbre. - I heard it once
on the occasion of the throwing of a
bomb; again from a crowd waiting
for a bank to open, and a third time
In a theatre when fire had been call
ed; and now here It was In miniature
from a couple of hundred women
watting to buy 10-cent embroideries.
They were poor women with shawls
V and baskets, women with babies in
their arms, women with, threabare
clothes carefully brushed, who must
think before spending each dime in
the dollar, but for once Indulging In
the great sport ot American women
bargain hunting. Mary Heaton Vorse

Votes For Women In Iceland.
For thirty years unmarried women
and widows over twenty-flve who are
householders or self-supporting have
had the right to vote for parish and
town councils In Iceland. Two years
ago all married women in the , two
principal towns on the Island were
given the light to the municipal fran
chise and the privilege of sitting in
the councils. And now the Icelandic
National Women's Suffrage Associa
tion, with ten thousand members, Is
working to obtain full political nnd
civil rights tor women on the same
terms as men.
TC there is a country anywhere la
the world in whiclt women ought t
have the right to vote It they want
it that country Is surely Iceland.
The women there are never idle.
They have no time for "society,"
They assist the men In agricultural
work and in fishing. They spin, knit,
weave. Besides rearing and educat
ing their children, they find leisure
for training the mind, and through
translations they keep in touch with
the best of European literature. There
1s not an Illiterate woman on the
whole Island. If such women want to
vote, it would be difficult to dispute
their qualifications. The Boston

Teaching a Child to 8ew.
There is always much enjoyment
for little girls when there is an op
portunity to do what mother does,
and In the play-time there can be
many little habits formed that later
on, will develop into full-fledged do
mestic ability.
On mending day, why not let your
little girl sew with you? But the task
must be Interesting to hold her at
tention. Clothes for dolly, hemming towels
that the grown-ups will use, and any
work that shows quick results are
the best work for the tiny Angers.
Do not allow the little ons to sew
for too long a time, but stop the
work at the expiration of half an
hour.
A fitted work-box or basket, with its
bluntly pointed1 scissors will make
the little Dorcas feel her Importance.
Insist upon neatness and cleanli
ness, and yet be not too stern a men
tor for frequently the young child's
efforts are nipped in the bud by the
lack of sympathy from the mother.
If sewing can take on the disguise
of recreation rather than the form of
a task, there will be an association
in the child's mind that Is pleasur
able, and from the play a gradual
transition can be made to the ne
cessary work of Bewlng and mending.

Women Rule In Welsh Village.
The selection of Fishguard In
Wales as a new port of call for the
big steamships of the Cunard Hne
has enabled hundreds of travelers
who never bad heard of the place be
fore to And a lively Interest in the
little village of Llangwm, near by.
Most of the inhabitants are of Flem
ish origin, descendants of the soldiers
of fortune who pushed their adven
turous way all along the southern
coast of England and finally settled
In Wales. 100 or BOO years ago, and
their quaint costumes and customs
Ftill mark them off from their neigh
bors as people apart. The most re
markable feature of their Hfe lies
In the position which the women hold
among them. Llangwlm might stand
as the Ideal of the most extreme ad
vocates of women's rights, for there
the women in supreme control. The
men are regardod merely as household
conveniences. They stay at home and
look after their domestic duties as
the women go out and act as the "men
of the family," earning the family live
lihood nnd also holding the family
purse strings. The women are the
owners of the farms and cottages,
and their husbands are perfectly sat
isfied that everything should be in
their hands, doing such work as their
wives tell there and filling an entirely
secondary place in the household.

Fashion Notes.
Frocks made In shirt waist and
skirt style are exceedingly popular
and the materials used are linen or
silk.
Buttons are now used in great
numbers and are always selected with
great care to guard against unique
prominence.
Purses of chantecler suede are still
further suggestive of Rostard's play
because of the rooster etched into
the leather.
Buckles made of tiny rosebuds, forget-me-nots
or other flowers are
among the Frenchlest of millinery
accessories.
Never were silk stocking mors
soft and entrancing than this season.
They are not vivid, but generally In
wonderful halt-tones.
Light materials surpass in beauty
those of any previous season and both
materials and styles of the hour seem
made for each other.
Serge with a white thread running
through it win be very popular for
the seaside. Large pearl buttons will
be used In many cases.
Ostrich feathers gain tn popularity
as the season advances. The willow
plume is seen, but it Is not the favo
rite that it was a year ago.
Polka dot foulards are seen in new
colors and designs as the season ad
vances. Made up with a plain silk
they are exceedingly effective.
There seems to be a universal lik
ing for drapery as the artistic addi
tion which lends grace to the nar
row straight lines of most grown s.
Exceedingly effective are the one
piece evening eoats of broadcloth
trimmed with Persian banding or a
boarder of effective metal embroid
ery. Blask pipings are in great favor,
being ased to emphasize important
lines of a costume. They serve so
cellentty tbe desire for a touch of
black. '
New York City. The blouse of
thin material in color to match the
coat suit Is the smartest of all things
just now and here is a model that
can be utilized In that way or for the
entire gown as liked, and it will be
equally serviceable put to both sses.
In the illustration it is made of mes
sallne and the trimming Is heavy lace
while the yoke and under-sleeves are
made of net. The lines are excep
tionally becoming and graceful and
the blouse Is one of the prettiest pos
sible yet absolutely simple. It is
closed Invisibly at the back and It can
be finished as illustrated or with a
collar and without the yoke, making
it half low. Treated In this way It
would be pretty with a llttU lace
tucker at the neck edge. All mater
ials that are thin enough to be tucked
are appropriate and the model will
find uses without number. The trim
ming of buttons Is a fashionable and
effective one and for the bands of the
neck and sleeves any lace or embroid
ery or fancy material will be appro
priate, or they can be of plain mater
ial either braided or embroidered.
The blouse Is made with front and
backs, which are tucked on Indicated
lines, the wide tucks over the shoul
ders being held In place by means of
ths trimming buttons. A shaped band
finishes the neck edge and when the
yoke Is used It is joined tr It. The
sleeves are of moderate fullness,
tucked to match the blouse, and the
under sleeves are attached beneath
the trimming bands.
The quantity of materia", required
for the medium size Is two and seven
eighth yards twenty-four or twenty
seven, two and five-eighth yards thirty-two,
one and three-quarter yards
forty-four Inches wide with five
eighth yard of all-over lace, five
eighth yard of net.
A very attractive white foulard
with black ring dots, has two deep
bands of black on the skirt, one at
the knees and the other as hem. The
deep crushed girdle and enffs are also
of the black silk. .

Neck and Sleeves.
When the season first opened we
were gravely told by the powers that
be that the Dutch neck would call
for short sleeves and that the high
collar would consort strictly with long
sleeves. The rule has been treated
like most manifestoes of the kind.
One may have low neck and long
sleeves and low neck and short
sleeves, or vice versa, and be in the
style what more can le asked ot a

Russian Bffects.
Russian effects are shown and worn
In endless variety. Ons of ths newest
developments of the peasant Idea Is
the dress fashioned on lines identical
with the coat suit and hardly to be
distinguished from It.
Sashes In Fashion.
SaBhes are with us once more. The
broad belts now so popular are con
tinued In soft knots and long ends
when the gown to be ornamented Is
of light, summery texture. Wide
flowered ribbon In pompadour pat
terns, soft broken plaids of a dainty
color on white, new satin brocade In
soft self-tones and the ever-beautiful
messallnes are all sought by the fore
sighted girl.
Seven Gored Tunic Skirt.
The tunic skirt takes many varia
tions. This one Is exceptionally
graceful and attractive. It Is lapped
at the front edges to give tbe one
side effect that is so much liked and
Includes a full length box pleat at the
back. One of the pretty striped lin
ens is the material Illustrated, but
the skirt will be found appropriate
for almost all seasonable ones, for the
thinner silks, such as foulard and
pongee, and many of the light weight
washable materials are made In such
style as well as the heavier linens,
poplins and wool fabrics. It can be
finished as Illustrated with a few but
tons or the tunic portion could be
trimmed with banding or with braid
applied over a stamped design.
The skirt is made with sevei. gores,
the tunic and tbe box pleat. The
tunic is cut in one piece and arranged
over the skirt while the box pleat
conceals the edges at the back.
The quantity ot material required
for the medium size Is twelve and
one-half yards twenty-four, nine
yards twenty-seven, eight and one
quarter yards thirty-two or five and
three-quarter yards forty-four Inches
wide; width of skirt at lower edge,
three yards.
There's a lot of character to this
suit of plain and striped pongee. The
stripe Is sort of an old blue, the same
as the deep cuffs, and It tones so well
with the natural color pongee. The
knife pleated collar of net is a new
feature.
Frills.
Of course the "Chantecler" frill Is
most talked of just now, and all sorts
of frllllngs are sold under the name,
and will be sold under the plain
generic title when "Chantecler" fash
ions have rowed themselves to death,
as will Boon be the case.
Flowers Plentiful. , '
la spite of the Chantecler vogue,
flowers were never more prominent in
millinery.

Rolled Celery Sandwiches.
"Here is a new sandwich wihlch is
simple, Inexpensive and delicious," says
Woman's Home Companion. "Take a
loaf of fresh bread, cut off the crusts,
and spread before slicing wlth a gen
erous layer of creamed buter; dust
with salt and pepper and roll tightly
around two or three small stalks of
celery. The celery 6hould be crisp
and tender and cut in small strips of
suitable length and dusted with fine
salt while damp. This makes an excel
lent sandwich for school luncheons,
and Is especially dainty for receptions
when tied with baby ribbon to match
the color scheme of the table."
Boiled Rice .
Rice must first be well washed, rub
bing grains between fingers to remove
floury coating. Have a deep kettle
two-thlrdia full of boiling water to
which has been added a very little
salt, and add the washed and drained
rice gradually. Cook Just twenty
minutes, without disturbing, except
ing to shake the kettle occasionally.
Then place a collander In a saucepan
and turn the rice into it. Cover and
let the pan remain by the fire to drain,
and steam the rice at the same time.
Bach grain should be swollen to its
full proportions, and as many as a
first-class potato. Washington Her

Cream Cakes.
One-half cup butter, 1 cup boiling
water, 4 eggs, 1 cup flour; pour but
ter and water In saucepan and place
on front of range; as soon as boiling
point is reached, add flour all at once,
and stir vigorously; remove from Are
as soon as mixed, and add unbeaten
eggs, 1 at a time, beating until thor
oughly mixed, between the addition ot
eggs; drop by spoonsfuls on a but
tered sheet, 1 1-2 inches apart, shap
ing with handle of spoon as nearly
circular as possible, having mixture
slightly piled in centre; bake 30 min
utes in a moderate oven; with a sharp
knlte make a cut in eaoh, large enough
to admit of cream filling; this recipe
makes 18 small cream cakes; for fla
voring cream filling, use lemon ex
tract; if cream cakes are removed
from oven before being thoroughly
cooked, they will fall; if in doubt,
take one from oven, and if it does not
fall, this Is sufficient proof that others
are cooked.
Cream Filling Three-fourths cup
thick cream, 1-4 cup milk, 1-4 cup
powdered sugar, white of 1 egg, 1-2
teawpoonful lemon extract; dilute
cream with millk and beat until stiff,
using egg beater; add sugar, white of
egg beaten until stiff, and lemon ex
tract. Boston Post.
Hints.
By adding a teaspoonful of cocoa to
pumpkin pies they will be greatly im
proved. Try putting a few currants Into
cold drinks. They give a tartness
which every one relishes.
On the top of each bottle of catsup
or chill souce pour two tablewpoonfuls
of table sweet oil. Before using pour
off oil.
To prevent a glass stopper from
sticking, smear with a little grease.
No matter bow long it stands it will
not stick.
Do not fear that you will lose flow
ers by cuttng them. The more you
cut the more you will have. As a
rule, a plant exhausts its possibilities
of bloom if its flowers are left to
wither, and It speedily runs to seed.
Pour scalding water over the or
anges and let them stand five min
utes. Yon will save time In peeling
them. The thick white skin that Is
so hard to get off will come off witii
the outside peefing, and the fruit will
be ready to slice.
When cleaning white, or light fea
thers, lay the feathers flat on a clean
'white cloth; then rub wheaten flour
well In. After doing this, shake out
the flour. Hold the feathers for a
few moments to the Are, shaking all
the time, when they will look equal
to new.
Two parts, by weight, of common
pitch and one part gutta percha melt
ed together in an iron vessel makes
a cement that holds together with
wonderful tenacity, wood, stone, Ivory,
leather, porcelain, silk, woolen or sot
ton. When yon try it yon wll be
surprised. .
BRADSTREET'S REPORT8 ',
QUIETNESS IN TRADE
Industries Feel Lessened Demand
Caused by Shutdowns for
Repairs.
"Wholesale trade and Industry are
quiet as a whole, the result partly of
midsummer and holiday influences,
and also because of the desire of buy
ers to await more definite information
as to crop outcome. Retail trade, on
the other hand, has been rather mors
active, being stimulated by favora
ble weather, but despite this and
clearance sales the volume ot Anal dis
tribution Is not up to expectations.
Industry has felt the Influence of les
sened demand, and mid-year shut
downs for repairs, and less than nor
mal time Is being worked in the iron
and steel, cottons, woolens, jewelry
and Jn some sections coal mining and
flour milling. Low water in Jforth
western streams is responsible for
less doing In the output of lumber.
The price movement shows consider
able present strength, following very
general declines In June and the cere
als and cotton are higher on the week.
Collections feel the Influence of quiet
trade In reports of only fair pay
ments. "While quiet and, In many lines,
disappointment rules as to the cur
rent volume of distribution, it is worth
while to recall that the six months'
period now ended has had some quite
favorable results. Thus, building ex
penditures aggregate only a small sum
less than for the like portion of 1909
and greatly exceed 1908.
