The sound of the flail has departed from nearly all the farmsteads and the calling of the thrasher has gone with ! it, says Notes and Queries. Yet for j some time after harvest was over there ! was no more familiar sound in the j country places than the "thud! thud!" | of the flails as they fell upon and beat out the grain on the barn-thrashing floors. There remain, however, some sayings in which "like the thrasher" occurs, but the use of these grow less and less. A short time ago some friends were in a country place where a part of the thrashing is done with the flail. A couple of the implements were hanging on the barn wall and a •heap of straw was on the floor. The use of the flail was explained and demonstrated for the benefit of those who had never seen this "weapon" of husbandry. Incidentally it may be mentioned that the sayings, "Sings like a thrasher" and "Works like a thrasher," came from that occupation, and are "as old as Adam." "It looks easy enough; that can't be very hard work," said one of the company, a re mark which led to the flail being put Into his hands for a try at the "easy work." One swing was enough for the amateur, for t'other end" caught him "a friendly whack" which probably he will remember to the end. It also doubtless impressed upon his memory that "working like a thrasher" as he had done had not led to "singing like a thrasher." "You'll get a good flail ing." Has any reader seen the flail employed as an effective When used by an old hand there Is no standing against it. Slaughter or Birds.

'* 1 3 The use of track tanks by which loco l motives of high speed passenger trains ; may take water without stopping is al most universal on the larger Eastern ! roads, where fast expresses are the rule. The Baltimore & Ohio Railroad has a ! number between Washington and | Philadelphia and intends to equip the | entire Main Line in the future. | This decision was recently arrived at I through Vie use of passenger locomo -1 lives, equipped with water scoops, on ! fast freight trains. It was found that , much time was saved, danger from I stopping being reduced to a minimum I and cost of running lessened. The Transportation Officials made some cal culations and the figures showed a sav | ing of no small sum, if track tanks are j used for slow freights on the divisions where business is very heavy. The extra stops for water take much time and the wear and tear on equip- ( ment is no small matter, and if five stops on each train can be eliminated between Cumberland and Baltimore, where trains are the thickest, the sav ing will be quite large. If the experiment on this part of the road proves successful, track tanks will be installed on every division be tween Baltimore and Chicago. As a starter, the 50 new Vauclain Compound Engines recently ordered will be fitted with water scoops. The London underground railroad is losing popularity. During the last half year the falling off in the number of passengers carlied amounted to 300,000. More Magnlllceut Thau Niagara. A correspondent writing in The Spectator says the Gersoppa falls, on the Sharavatti river, in South Kanara, India, are larger and more magnificent than Niagara. He says: "The river is 230 yards wide; the clear fall is 830 feet. The Gersoppa falls in the rainy season are incomparably finer than Niagara in every respect. The roar of the falling waters is simply terrific; the whole earth shakes, and the thun der is so great that it completely drowns the human voice. When I vis ited Niagara and told my American friends about Gersoppa they replied with polite incredulity, 'We never heard of Gersoppa.' I replied, 'Make your minds easy; the people at Ger soppa have never heard of Niagara.' If Niagara could see Gersoppa she would wrap her head In a mist." _ WOMAN'S WOP. ] 'ls6€€eie€€e€e€€<J 11 SOME WOMEN'S POT BOILERS. Unusual Occupations Which Mean a Good Livings and Sometlmea a Fortune. A former society woman A f New York City whose fortune is now gone finds in house decorating a means of support. She takes orders for interior decorations, inoluding walls, wood work and furnishings. She not only makes the purchases, but super intends the workmen. Her friends, admiring the taste Bhown in the fur nishing of her own home, suggested that she give the world the benefit of her talent. In a Western city a large home delicacy association, whioh supplies tearooms, clubs and railway cafes, is controlled by a woman. It began in a small way, the originator being asked to bake things for a luncheon room. Her first contribution was gingerbread. This was homemade gingerbread, and evoked enthusiasm. Then there was a demand for cakes, rolls, salads, pickles and jellies. The demand continued, and the associa tion was the outcome of her experi ment. One woman who on account of poor health was obliged to give np teach ing bought up a lot of bog and mash land in a little New Jersey town, and fencing it with wire started a frog farm, sending the legs to the market. She found a frog crop easy to raise, and it is said that Bhe has made from S3OOO to SSOOO a year out of this un usual enterprise. A young Frenoh woman whose home was the joy and envy of her friends was asked one day by one of them if she would out of pity arrange the petitioner's home, for in epite of many pretty and costly things it had "that stiff look." The success she made in the rearranging of her friend's home was so great that the question was suggestsd "why not mako some pin money by putting homes in order?" So she advertised to do dusting and artistic arranging "by the hour." Her first customers were so well pleased that they recommended her to; their friends, and now she has more than she can do. A Southern girl has found a unique way of earning her living and is, in deed, making a fortune. She raises mooking birds and sells and rents them. She gets the birds when they are fledglings— sometimes from the nest just before they have to fly or when in attempting to fly they fall helpless to the ground and are res cued; or, sometimes, when they break a wing, whioh does not hinder their singing and makes them content in a cage. This young woman will never sell her birds to a Northerner, for sho knows they will die when brought to the North, and sho loves them too well for that. She rents them to visi tors at the hotels and cottages who go to the South for the winter. The New Paris Coiffure. A new coiffure which has already been adopted by many Frenoh women is deoidedly piquant to some faces. The hair on either side is waved slightly and puffed out, the middle part is waved in soft, irregular waves and dressed in the shape of a large mussel ahell, whioh is made to fall over the forehead. One large puff, made with the hair tied together and placed high on the head, forms the chignon; this puff is pulled out soft and wide, the hair being carried for ward and the strand bent, as when making an 1830 puff. The remainder of the hair is then lightly twisted and arranged around the base of the paff. A comb placed at the back gives a pretty finishing touoh. The artistic hair dresser insists that every comb and pin, bow or butterfly placed in the coiffure should have a reason for its presenoe. Hair not puffed or waved does not look well with jeweled pins, or fanciful ospreys and bouquets disturbing its severity and destroying the effeots of its be coming simplicity. An Empire comb placed at the base of a low coiffure is inconsistent and in bad taste. The whole reason for these combs is either to support the hat or as an ornament pure and simple. If as an ornament its proper plaoe is in front of the twists, whioh oome no higher than the level of the top of the ears. The gauze butterflies, particularly the black ones spangled with jet or gold or silver, whioh go so well with the sequined laoe frocks of the sea son, are not as becoming to everyone as one might imagine such pretty things to be. Tnlle bows of white or in light oolors, spangled or plain, are lees trying if less beautiful and most of them are very pretty and becoming. Tulle bowß with appliq,ue designs in laoe are partioalarly prettj, givingthe effect of a laoe bow agaiaßt a eloud- Jike colored background.- -New York Commercial Advertiser. The New Styles In Millinery. The hats and bonnets for the season are very picturesque, and while some are not very different from those of a year ago the slight changes make for beauty and "beoomingness." The velvet toque of immense size is among the new styles for the season, but its tendency is to dip over the eyes, whilo the chief oharm of last season's toque was that it was a frame for tho face and displayed the pompadour to its last fluffy hair. A rather pretty new style in toques has a low crown, a rolling brim, and while coming further over the forehead than last year's variety is dented directly in tho centre of the front, making place for a big bow of panne or satin, or for a breast of grebe and a soft osprey. A great ohou of bright tinted velvet, with a barrrette of pearls or steel, is also very effective, and looks wonderfully pretty when the color of the hair is carefully considered in ehoosing the velvet. The poke bonnet, with tiny crown, flaring brim aDd long strings of tulle or vel vet, is quaint and becoming to the woman who has a picturesque face. Some of the bonnets are made of rib bon velvet, gathered slightly and placed row upon row like rose petals; the brims are faced with rows of vel vet pipings over satin or lace. Ckoux of lace, flowers and velvet leaves add to the old-time air of these bonnets, and jeweled brooches are used to fasten the tulle strings which are intended to be twisted around the neck twice and fastened at one side. Susan B. Anthony Abroad. Two little stories are told about that stanchest exponent of democratic and republican institutions, Susan B. An thony. On one occasion Bhe actually undertook to introduce one of the greatest lords in the kingdom to two poor little girl employes on a London paper, and, as if this were not suf ficiently heinous, she told him frankly that she had forgotten his name. He did not tell it to her, and if Gibson could have caught the expression of his lordship's face he might have pro duced his masterpiece. At another time she was invited to a swell luncheon to meet the Princess Christian, the Queen's daughter. Af ter shaking hands with her and talk ing a few minntes Miss Anthony sat down. Presently some one came and told her she must not ait while royalty was standing. Some of her friends say that her eighty years and the fatigue from the strain of the past weeks justified her in sitting. Others say that she oould have stood up two hoars if she had had a suffrage speech to make, but that the awful breach of etiquette was due to that spirit of her Quaker ancestors which made them faoe death rather than take off their hat to a king. Miss Anthony herself only laughs and "refuses to be inter viewed."—Washington Post. Dai Lived Under Four Flags. On July 24 the Daughters of the Republic of Texas observed in a quiet way the eightieth birthday of Mrs. Anson Jones, widow of the last Presi dent of the Republic of Texas. Mrs. Jones lives in St. Louis with her son, Dr. C. E. Jones, and in spite of her eighty years is hale and hearty, taking much interest in the Daughters of the Republic—of which she is one of the mothers—and in her church. Mrs. Jones has lived under four flags, few who can say that, being in the land of the living. She was born under the Stars and Stripes, came to live under the Snake and Caotus of Mexico, saw the rise and the honor able retirement of the Lone Star of Texas, witnessed the rise and the fait of the Stars and Bars, and is again undor the Stars and Stripes, happy and contented in her old age.—St. Louis Republic. How to Stick in Your Hut Pins. With the hi)ir dressed low an elastic can be substituted; but in the case of a ooil worn high up two pins must be used. Lot them be of moderate length, and take the trouble to run them in among the trimming of feathers, so that a bare bit of straw is not damaged and left exposed to view another time. The point should pass through the hair on the top of the head and just penetrate the opposite side of the hat, so that it is fixed firmly, though the pins remain invisible. When the hat or bonnet is lavishly trimmed this course is easier, naturally, but a sailor hat with its plain band can be treated in the same way, the pin going across just above the ribbon. Wa.h For an Oily Skin. For an oily skin with large pores an authority advises washing every night with hot water and pure castile soap; then, with gentle massage, apply a good quality of oold cream. Glycerine is benefioial to some skins, but injuri ous to others, so every individul must note the effect upon her own. In the morning put about a teaspoonful of tinoture of benzoin in a quart of cold water, and wash the face and hands well in it. The Winter Colora. Light neutral colors will be in vogue for the winter. Fashion Fads and Fancies. Smooth cloth gowns will be much in vogue. Handsome stiff silver bracelets are out in a heavy rope pattern. Red and pink have taken very many of theforemost seats in fashion's court this season. The demi-long coats in white caout chouo or waterproof, in a thin and supple quality, are very stylish. The rage for jewels is on the in orease, and they will undoubtedly be used more than ever this season. Elbow sleeveß aro almost universal ly worn, sometimes with long gloves and sometimes with no gloves at all. The pullback and the princess are really revived. The fewer seams and the fewer darts the more fashionable a woman appears. A legion of women will undoubtedly hail with undisguised delight the an nouncement that cottou shirt waists are to be worn entirely through the winter season. The new supple weaves of taffeta silk are in great use this season, both for gowns and accessories, to say noth ing of the pretty dotted and striped patterns and the weaves burred with satin in contrasting colors for fancy waists. Gauzy materials, like the heavier materials, are much in vogue when pierced and buttonholed. Many of the fichus, plastrons und yokes mada of this pierced stuff are laced with bright-cMored comet ribbon, which gives a striking offset. HOUSEHOLD AFFAIRS. Flower Instead or Initial. Tha newest method of marking handkerchiefs and linen is dainty and artistio enough to become popular in a short time. Instead of the initial or monogram, the owner's favorite flower is embroidered in one corner of the mourohoir or tablecloth, or en graved on the stationerv. The Way to illuko an Ice Poultice. An ice poultice is made by mixing eraoked ice with sawdust, putting the mixture into a flannel bag and wrap ping this in oiled silk or thin India rubber cloth. It is sometimes used to reduce the temperature in children in oases of fever when the head is hot, but its application requires great eare.—Ladies' Home Journal. Mattrcsic. Need Cleaning. When the autumn housecleaning comes around the up to date house keeper sends her mattresses to be cleaned as regularly as her carpets. If the abomination of feather beds be need, as is still the case in some be nighted households, the annual clean ing is an absolute necessity of hygiene. Whether mattress or feather bed be used, it should have an outside cover of strong ootton, to be removed frequently and washed. A Good Fire Klndler. On one of our outings to the mouu tains we seoured a quantity of very rieh pitoh pine which made such good kindling wood that when it was gone the old way of whittling shavings seemed very unsatisfactory, and we set out to find something better. Pouring kerosene on malms the lire start quickly, but we have a prejudice against being burned alive. After various experiments we hit upon the following which is safe and cheap and good. Take a flat ten-pound lard pail. Break corn cobs in two and stand the halves on end in the pail until the bottom is filled. Then pour kerosene enough over them to wet the oobs and leave a little in the bot tom of the pail, so that half an inch or less of the ends of the cobs will stand in the oil. One of these pieces of cob laid in the grate will light readily from a matoh and burn strong ly enough to start quite coarse kin dling, and prove a great help on cold winter mornings.—L. Mentor, in Farm, Field and Fireside. A New Table For Photogruplifl. A new table is being shown in the swell furniture stores which could easily be duplicated in less expensive materials and placed in more than one room in the house. We all know how photographs accumulate and how hard it is to keep them from dust and also from fading. This table is designed especially for photographs and will fill a long felt want. It is about as large as the old fashioned work table and, like it, has a top which opens, disolosing a box inside which is divided into compart ments of different sizes for the recep tion of photographs. The top is of pleated satin brocade, so arranged that piotures can be poked in here and there, and when opened the top forms quite an ornamental background for the faces of our friends. The imported model is very beauti fully and expensively upholstered in heavy Pompadour brocade of an ecru Color, powdered with small flowers. In copying this pretty invention for the preservation of photographs cheaper wood can be used, and the ' oovering may be of some inexpensive silk, cretonne or plush.—New York Herald. Fmit at Dinner. When bananas are served at dinner the skin should be removed with a fruit knife, the banana held in the hand, and small pieces broken or cut off and eaten from the fingere. Some very partioular people put the banana on the plate after it has been peeled ai-d cut, and eat it from a fork, but this is not the usual custom. Oranges are seldom served at dinner unless they are specially prepared—that is, with the skin taken off of them, the seotions divided and made tasteful by some dressing or sweetening, and the seeds removed, in which oase the fruit is eaten from a fork, as if it were a pudding, ioe or fruit salad. When apples are served they are usually part of a fruit oentrepiece, and shonld be pared, out into small pieces and eaten from the fingerß or fork as fan oied. Fruit stones may be removed from the mouth by the assistance of the fork, but it is in better taste to use one's napkin to conceal this aot. Fish bones are taken from the mouth with the fingers. Care, however, is usually taken to leave as few bones as possible in the fish, since the general use of the silver knife with the silver fork has made it easy to separate the bones from the meat. Recipes. Rusk—Two eggs, two cupfuls ot •weet milk, two cupfuls of melted but ter, a little salt, two teaspoonfuls of cream of tartar, one teaspoonful of soda, four oupfuls of flour. This must be well beaten. Baked Fish Roll—Mix together one cupful of cold baked fish, one cupful of mashed potatoes, a half cupful of milk, one well beaten egg and pepper and salt to taste. Form into a roll, put into a buttered baking dish, sprinkle with bread crumbs, add bits of butter and bake until a nice brown. Turnip Sauce—Have boiling a pint of salted water, in which drop two medium-sized white onions and two white turnips the size of a teacup; boil until tender and mash fine; do not use the liquid, but add to the pulp one cupful of milk, one-half cup ful of cream, adding a teaspoonful each of flour and butter rubbed smooth together, half a teaspoonful of salt and half a saltspoonful of pepper; stir until smooth and hot and serve in a boat; delicious with roast duck. For the horse, as for his master, Ivory finds abundant scope; Galls and scratches heal much faster, When well cleansed with Ivory Soap. 1 Where 'tis used, the work is lighter, Sleek and smooth the horses' coats, Harness softer, carriage brighter, And—a final charm it floats. YOUTH With ■ Financial Gcntna That Dooms Him to aillllonalrcdom. New Orleans Times-Democrat: "My roommate Is a chap of extraordinary financial genius," remarked a railroad clerk of this city. "He Is a native of California, and five or six years ago he spent a season on a sugar planta tion In Hawaii. He was engaged at the time, and while he was there he corresponded regularly with his fiancee. Afterward they quarreled and the match was broken off, but the poor girl thought his letters were beauti ful, and treasured them religiously. Quite reoently he saw In a paper that Hawaiian stamps of the period of his stay there had become very scare and valuable, and he Immediately sat down and wrote to his old sweetheart de manding his letters. He said he was loon to be married, and felt It his duty to destroy 'em; appealed to her 'bet ter feelings' and all that, and, to make a long story short, she sent them back. They wero yellow with age, and had luspicous stains that looked like tears, bilt he wasn't moved a bit.

A recent visitor to the Philippines ■ays that some of the women of the Island are remarkably pretty, having big, languishing eyes and an abun dance of long hair. This they fasten np with a big gold pin and then adorn with flowers. They do not wear hats, hut use sunshades, and do so very oo quettlshly; they wear very dainty ■hoes, but do not wear stockings. They are distinguished by grace of figure and movement, though according to our ideas not especially by refinement of habits, for both women and chil dren smoke huge cigars and Indulge in betel chewing. It Is their custom to keep the thumb nail of the right hand very long, as this assists them In playing their favorite Instrument, the guitar. The use of the fan originated in Ohlna and sprang from the follow ing Incident: A royal princess, very beautiful, was assisting at the feast of lanterns, her face covered with a mask, as usual. The excessive heat com pelled her to remove It, and in order to guard her features from the common gaze she moved It quickly to and fro i In front of her face, thus simultaneous ly hiding her charms and cooling her brow. The Idea was at once adopted throughout the kingdom. A few years ago there were as many ] as 33 vegetarian restaurants In London.

The Idea ot an exhibit of Americas products and manufactures in St. Pet ersburg in 1901 is favorably received and commented on in manufacturing circles. Russia is the most inviting field for American trade extension now in sight. That great empire is in the early stages of prodigious development, and a grand market is being created there for the innumerable devices and appliances for multiplying production and decreasing its cost, as well as for developing the splendid resources of the nation. An exhibit such as indi cated will give the Russian an oppor tunity of seeing and of inquiring into the utility of American machinery and of American wares of all sorts. In the natural order of things America will be feeling for a broader market for her products within the next two years, and Russia will be an important outlet for the surplus manufactures of the republic. Organized steps will soon be taken to promote the St. Pet ersburg project for American trade ex tension, and congress will be asked to help it along with a substantial appro priation. If the exhibit should lead to practical results in the way desired, similar exhibits can he made in South America and in other parts of the world where the people have need of the things which the United States can furnish. —New York better.
