USE OF JET TRIMMING. Directions Given for Imitating Expensive Beaded Trimmings Now on Display In Stores. For wear with a black cloth, velvet or crepe de chine gown, the jet bead dog' collar Is coming in. For this the foundation is either black silk or velvet cut to tit the neck" perfectly, rtun-ning around the collar are closely set rows of tiny round jet bead3 strung on linen thread, waxed. At Intervals rows of jet nailheads.

three-eighths of an inch In diameter, are set In Imitation of the rhlnestones seen in connection with near-pearl dog collars. These give the effect of a bar running up and down. If the conar is to be worn with a low necked gown. It may be finished around the lower edge with a bead fringe made from the fine beads, with the strands graduated, very long in the front and shorter toward the back. This style is particularly becoming to full, plump faces.

Or the fringe may be studded intervals with larger beads, and each strand finished with a large bead, at least a quarter of an inch In diameter. Very stunning for the girl who Is making over her evening coat are the bands of heavy white satin embroidered in tiny gold beads. The simplest pattern is the old-fashioned key or Wall of Troy design, but the girl who Is deft with transfer paper can stamp the Batin band with a vine or spreading floral pattern, using a sharply pointed pencil. A striking girdle to be worn with a gray broadcloth suit shows velvet of the same shade, embroidered In cut steel' beads. Here-the pattern Is very ornate and almost covers the velvet, but an equally striking effect could be secured if only the back and front of the girdle were ornamented with rosettes or buckles.

Another combination which pleases the woman who wears much black and white in combination Is the Jet buckle on a girdle of white silk cloth or velvet In planning this girdle bear in mind that Dame Fashion promises a return to the narrow girdle effect In the front at least The long-waisted girl may retain the high cut In the back, but pointed effects are promised once more In the front The new Jet sets offered In shops ihow a two or three-Inch buckle for the front and eight or ten inch slide tor the back.

Next sew on your black foundation, firm taffeta sltk "jelng the best of all. Cover this solidly with the beadwork, tewing it on crosswise, as thus It Is taslsr to keep your lines straight Before lining the buckle Insert featberbone the exact length of the beaded strips, so that the buckle will bend to the figure and not break. Cover this with silk and your buckle Is ready for the girdle, to which it should be sewed tight A buckle ten Inches deep should be not more than two Inches wide, and the effect Is better if it Is even narrower.

A Lavender Season. Every shade ot mauve, lavender, violet and lilac has been brought out this year. Never has there been such rage for these particular colors. They are very beautiful, but, alas, wmewhat perishable, and summer mns play havoc with them; yet, strangely enough, in washing fabrics both lavender and lilac are most enduring and emerge ever fresh and bright from the laundress' despoiling hands.

I HfLLRrHKiw alii mUBt DEPOPULATING ENGLANDr Tas Craze there for Extensive Gams Preserves Is Driving Out the Farmers. There has been for many years a tendency to Increase the size of farms by throwing three or four Into one and pulling down the superfluous buildings. Farmers and land owners alike promoted this disastrous policy, says the Independent Review. In the fat years farmers competed wildly with each other for every vacant farm; it was easier to collect rent from one farmer than from three or four; but, above all.

I think. In many places the growing love, not of "sport" in the old sense of the word, but of preservation of game on a huge scale, as an attraction to the squire's sporting friends, was the chief Incentive to this truly unpatriotic procedure. A large head of game is much.more easily kept up when farms are large, farmers few, and, cottages far apart than when farms are small and habitations near together. Wealthy men can afford to let farms on very easy terms to tenants who will help to preserve the game and make no "fuss" about its ravages. The only rural employment in which, the number of those engaged has increased of late years Is gamekeeping.

In all others it has decreased largely. Very high rents are paid by rich men for a mansion with first-class shooting for the season. This often pays the owner much better than farms let to progressive and hard-working farmers would do. So It comes about that covers are planted, cottages pulled down. land let go to gorse; and the heritage of the people becomes the playground of the rich.

SOMEWHAT OPEN QUESTION The Chasm May Have Been Like Aunt Elizabeth, a Trifle Weary. Ever since the time of the famous "traveled parson" stay-at-home folks have had their doubts at times about the desirability of having globe-trotters for friends and relatives, says the New York Times. Old Miss Stanton, after sending her nephew Edward through college, next supplied him with funds for a year's travel abroad. On his return the young man was possessed by a praiseworthy zeal to entertain his venerable and generous aunt, as well as to make plain to her that be had profited by his advantages. Especially had he during his visit of a month at Miss Stanton's expatiated on the magnificence of Switzerland's scenery, until that lady fgund herself actually cherishing a grudge against the Alps.

"There I stood. Aunt Elizabeth." said the long-winded young man impressively, "there I stood, and. beneath me that stupendous abyss was yawning!" The long-suffering old lady broke In at this point "Edward," she said crisply, "are you prepared to say whether that abyss was yawning before you got there, or did It begin "shortly afterward?" HAS FEWER ANARCHISTS. Public Feeling Has Driven Most of the Murderous Sort from Italy. The attempt on the life of the Dowager Queen Margherita has filled Italians with horror and -indignation.

Since the assassination of her husband, tne unfortunate Humbert, the horror towards anarchists 'has been more intense every day, and public opinion is strong in Its denunciation of that moral scourge. Strange to say, and against the universal belief, there are probably fewer anarchists in Italy to-day than In any other country of the world. It Is true that a majority of the anarchists arc Italians, but, as a rule, they do not operate In their native land. The United States and Spain offer the anarchists a much better field than Italy, where the police has made a special and constant duty of the prosecution of anarchists. Up to the time of President McKln-leys assassination America was the greatest anarchist center of the world.

Of late, however, the reds have pitched their camp In Barcelona and other cities of Spain, and it is there that plans are made and from there that orders are given. American Women as Teachers. Four-fifths of the teachers In the United States, according to a recent census bulletin, are women and mere are more teachers In this country than there are clergymen, lawyers and physicians together. In the proportion of women teachers employed the United States leads the world, although In nearly every civilized country the greater part of the teaching Is done by women. This Is in line with the general tendency toward the advancement of 'woman to a better place in this country.

In 1890 the number of women In paying positions in this country was 3,914,571, and in 1900 this number had Increased to 5,329,807. However, as the number of men In paying positions has also Increased in the same time. It mpst not be accepted as certain that women are going to crowd men out -of positions in intel lectual employment altogether. Tough Luck. "Luck never manages just right," said the irritable man who dislikes music.

"It might just as well have been the other way round, hut It wasnt" "What is the trouble now?" "My daughter who plays the' piano has a sore throat, and the oas who sings has a sore flnger." THROUGH AN ALLIGATOR. lingular Source of Pollution of the Water of a Central American Town. Here Is an incident that Illustrates the unexpected difficulties which ea-terprlse has sometimes to face In certain regions of Central America, says the New York Herald. An alligator was the innocent cause of the misfortune, and It lived In a large lake whence an ImpoVtant town drew Its supply of water. By means of powerful steam driven pumps the water was drawn from the lake through a strong Iron pipe, which, after running some 80 or 90 yards Into the lake from the shore, ended In an upward turn, a Bhort arm bent at right angles to the pipe and rising to within a few feet of the surface.

Suddenly an epidemic visited the town In question. The company's reputation being threatened. It was decided to straightway pull up the streets and expose the main pipes and conduits. The entire system was laid bare, from the outskirts of the town to the very shores of the lake, but the minutest examination failed to reveal any suspicious feature. Then, almost at their wits' end.

for the epidemic was raging as badly as ever, the officials entered upon the last lap and turned their attention to the submerged portion of the conduit, and here it was they found the cause. A huge alligator had been drawn toward the mouth of the main by the very strong Influx and. being unable to release itself from the suction, had remained there until it died, and thus, for goodness knows how long, all Ahe water consumed in the town had first filtered through the decomposed carcass of the alligator. OUR ENORMOUS EGG CROP Over Forty-Three Million Crates Are Produced in the United States Annually. The egg and poultry earnings of the United States for one recent year amounted to 5280.000.000.

Such an amount is sufficiently amazing as it stands, but you don't get its full significance until you study the relative financial values of other "industrials." says Franklin Forbes, in Success Magazine We find, for instance, that the total value of gold, silver, wool and sheep produced in America during the year in question was $272,434,315. The sugar production of the country the same year was but 520.000.000. That part of the wheat crop used at home, which many consider the most valuable of all our agricultural products, was worth The great American hog. as consumed at home and abroad, brought $186,529,035. The value of the oat crop was 578.9S4.900.

Potatoes grown In the United States were valued at nearly as large a sum as were the oats. The product of tobacco plantations was estimated to be worth 535,579.225. Cotton, the dethroned king of staples, could show only 5259,161.640. as against the magnificent earnings of its feathered rival The crops of flax, timothy, clover, millet and cane seeds, broom corn, castor beano, hay, straw and so forth, couldn't, all told, come within a measurably distance of many millions of the poultry earnings. The hen's eggs produced in this country annually would fill 43.127.000 crates, each of the latter holding 360 eggs; also a train of refrigerator cars to carry these eggs would be nearly 900 miles long.

Furthermore, it would take 107,818 such cars to make up this train. RATHER HARD ON HOST. How a Willing But Inexperienced Waitress Made a Very Bad Break. William W. Russell, the new minister to Venezuela, was being congratulated on his appointment, relates the New York Tribune.

"Thank you," said Mr. Russell, "I appreciate your good wishes, and I will try to do well In my new place. "In new places," he went on, "we all, with hard work, may do weU. Now and then, before unexpected and unprecedented crises, we may err, but there Is no need for us to err greatly to err, for Instance, as did the new wait ress of a friend of mine. "This waitress was willing, but Inexperienced.

"But. instead, the waitress, as she removed the plates after the fish course, said to the assembled gueses in a loud, authoritative voice: 'All keep yer 1 His First Rain. "Those who are not accustomed to rain are frightened by it," says a writer. '1 once saw an Arab rained on for the first time. He was abjectly terrified and demanded to have his passage paid from the country Sicily In which the dread phenomenon occurred.

He had been conveyed from the Sahara, I think, by a European, whose servant he was, and he evidently thought his master was behaving abominably to him In permitting him to get wet By the first steamer returned to his native desert, abandoning excellent wages, and shaking the raindrops furiously from his slippered feet" Qualified.
