NEWEST FORTUNE TELLER. The Telephone Girl, From a Glass Case, Reveals Ycur Future to You. The gypsy queen and the Hindu princess who tell your fortune for a cent In the phonograph rooms give it to you printed on a card. High in a glass case and life-size in form the lady sits, with one hand outstretched over an array of playing curd, and whn you have dropped your cent in the in the machine's base the lady up above moves her hands hack and forth over the face cf the cards before her and looks very wise, and then in a moment there is popped out to you from below a b't of pasteboard, on which you find jour fortune. Th newest of these fortune tellers talks it right into your ear; this! one being called the telephone girl.

ke the others the telephone girl pits, high in a glass case on a pedestal containing the mechanism; but the apparatus i somewhat different. Here you find arrayed, over which the hand of the fissure sways, tho same layout of playing cards; but here instead of a raven perched at the fortune teller's elbow you hnt rising from the table in front of her the curved arm of a telephone transmitter, which is placed at a height convenient to the telephone girl's lips. At one corner of the base of this machine is the slot to put the cent in, and on the other corner on th customary hook hangs a telephone receiver. Drop a cent in the slot and place the receiver at your ear and "Thf-re is trouble in store for you." says the, telephone girl, "but don't be alarmed, you'll come out all right. Don't lean on others, but trust yourself and go ahead," and so on.

TOPICS OF THE HOUSEHOLD. Brown bread sandwiches spread with a filling of mayonnaise mixed with chopped nuts and raisins are tasty for afternoon tea. Minced Mexican red peppers with mayonnaise are delicious for either white or brown bread sandwich fillings. To draw the threads of linen or cotton, rub the fabric first with a cake of hard eeiap and the threads will usually come out without breaking. When fish of unpronounced flavor Is to be boiled It Is improved by the addition of vinegar to the water.

If the fish is inclined to be tasteless half a pint of vinegar to an ordinary kettle of water will not be too much. An old New England housekeeper has a cupful of rich hot cream ready to stir into the baked beans when they come from the oven and before they go to the table. Creamed toast in one family Is prepared in this way: The bread is toasted and kept hot in a covered dish. Then a white sauce is made in the usual proportion of a cupful of rich milk or cream to a tablespoonful each of butter and flour, with salt to season. At the last, when the sauce is thick, two tablespoon-fuls of greated cheese are stirred In, a teaspoonsful of Worcestershire sauce and a dash of paprika.

It is poured over the toast. A clear veal stock thickened slightly with cornstarch was served the other day with very finely-ground salted almonds stirred in with a little rich cream. A spoonful of whipped cream topped every cup. Half a pound of the almonds was used with a quart and a milf of veal stock and a cupful of cream. The whipped cream was not included In this amoun.

A very slight thickening of the stock was given by a tablespoonful of cornstarch and two tablespoonfuls of butter creamed together before going in. To prepare a rice omelet as on cook does it, make a white sauce with a cupful of milk and two level tablespoonfuls each of cornstarch and butter. Stir in three well-beaten yolks and a cupful of hot boiled rice. Fold In the stiffy beaten whites of the three eggs, season with paprika and a trace of nutmeg, and cook in the regular omelst pan. Serve with red currant Jelly.

m. AN AUTO SCARE IN LIMA. Residents Automatically Prepared for Trouble Tires Just Blew Up. Ray W. Nutting, a Cornell graduate, who has Fpnt the last three yenrs at a mine nearly three miles above the sea in the Peruvian Andes and who return'-d to New York recently, tells a story about the last revolution -ire that Lima bad.

"Only a fi-w days before I patiM." says Nutting, "I was sitting in a caff in Lima not far from the palace grounds when thre came the sudd-n shock ft an explosion. It was pretty b-u 1 and certainly Th- rsoisf to tome from the direction of th- r.i!ac- "Insdantly everyone busy. Those who were on made for the nearest doorw.iy.

Art muslin curtains should never be washed in warm water. Put thorn into a latht-r of nearly cold water. If the curtains are isreen add a Utile vinegar; If lilac or pink, a litth- ammonia.

Salt will set the colors of 1c and white muslins. Every bat, however simple, should be assigned to a particular bx and placed In it directly after it is removed from the head and properly brushed, unless it has been subjected to dampness. In that event till the crown and brim with tissue paper to prevent them losing their curves, and be certain that the hat has thoroughly dried he-fore putting it away. Nursery furniture s-houhl never be upholstered, or it creates and holds dust. A rug is also an unnecessary article, and an endless source of falls.

Have the corners of the table well rounded off, place the lamp in a high bracket, and have a high fender if you wish your children to escape many of the usual nursery accidents. Clean white satin shoes as follows: Rub them lengthways of the satin with a piece, of new white flannel dipped in spirits of wine. If slightly soiled, you may clean them by rubbing with stale bread. White satin slippers should be kept in blue paper closely wrapped, with coarse brown paper outside. TO PREVENT MOTHS.

Those women who are putting away furs, curtains, rugs and any kind or woolen goods will be glad to know of a paper, also a cloth, that will preserve them from moths and other insects tnai make their homes in such fabrics. Hotel keepers, dyers and cleaners have long made use of such wrappers, also trie United States Government, for the preservation of valuable papers as well as woolens, and I am told that it is now possible to buy retail by the roll both tne paper and the cloth. The odor is pleasant, being- of cedar. USEFUL TIPS. After an umbrella has been in use for a short time, put a drop of oil in the center of the top about once a month.

This prevents the ribs from rusting. If two thin glasses have stuck one in the other place them in warm water and pour cold water in the upper glass. I The expansion of one and the contrac-I lion of the other loosens them. A little soap or black lead rubbed on the i hinge of a squeaking door will often remedy matters. Brown boots can be blackened by rubbing the blacking well Into the shoes with a raw pototo and then polishing.

Betty Bradeen's It is a mistake for a woman to marry for position unless she is reasonably sure of filling the place to which she aspires. Several women have stepped from poverty to riches and found firm ground upon which to vstand, but many more have wearied of the struggle to open doors with misfit keys, and returned to familiar surroundings. A woman can he an awful drag upon a man though Bhe often proves to be a genuine helpmeet. Beauty will assist her to some exent, but cleverness will do much more. A combination of beauty and brains is Irresistible, but it is too rare to be reckoned The brides who have found themselves unwelcome to prominent families have generally been deficient in education, or native refinement or the patience which wins in the long run.

Sometimes they have had an unsavory past, which is likely to be dished up in the newspapers when the family is of sufficient importance to attract attention. No family need feel shame for the poverty of any of Its new members. Poverty is a thing that can be easily remedied under such circumstances, and it is the fate of many high-minded, cultivated men and women. Beautiful lives are lived in the homes of many who have to look more than twice at a dollar before spending It. The furniture may be old and plain, but It is bound "to be comfortable, and the food will -be ap UNFINISHED SENTENCES.

There is a good deal of hard feeling experienced from time to time against persons who insist upon finishing their eentences. When they go so far as to retrace their verbal steps and finish a sentence, deserted by every one else a full 10 minutes back then unpopularity Is harshly meted oute to them. Yet it is a perfectly legitimate instinct, backed up by a dislike of loose ends and an exaggerated abhorrence of stray fragments ot phrases that the over-talkatlve world prevented your mailing where they oe-longed. If the world protests tnat it cannot have its chatter clogged, then ym, the sufferer, have an equal right to reruse publicity to he cluttered up with ems that you will never be able to use now that the have been wniriea away beyond your reach. Permitting ideas to go out only hair clothed should be repugnant to any rignt-minded talker, and "As I was saying." must be rescued from Us ignominy, in certain rigorous families the parting ot the lips on the first is all that is permitted, the rest of the sentence being pitilessly cried down.

Now that Js absurd. It may not be pleasant for tne hearers, but they should endure it witn some shw of control. A congested tongue is most disagreeable. It is not relieved, talking to oneself or turgid thinking results, and those are things to be avoided. These poor children who go about witn dozens of unsatisfied, "Yes, but motn-e-r's" on their lips what an awful stock of Incomplete surmises they will be carrying aboit 10 years hence.

It is cruel. People must be allowed to pick up their unfinished phrases and serve them in whatever kind of a ragout they like, it Is not exciting food; but thrift and neatness must be encouraged, not to speaK of Individual comfort. Then, too, most or us have a word for ourselve-s which has been troubling us for years. I-et us matce a stand and get It out. It is a marvelous chance to explain ourselves.

NEW PETTICOATS. The latest novelty in petticoats ts a combination of soft black silk, such as peau de soie and the Persian satins, xne petticoat itself Is of black and Is cut out at lower edge in deep sharp points to overlay an accordion pleated flounce ot the Persian satin. The price is $7.73, and though a little more expensive than the taffeta, such a petticoat will outwear two or perhaps three of taffeta silk. Again, s-oft petticoats are a necessity nowadays, when skirts are so narrow and clinging. Morning Chat petizing, if not varied.

Such poverty has nothing sordid about It. An ignorant, uncouth person is almost unbearable when one does not take Into consideration surroundings and conditions. I have not forgotten my solitary encounter with an enormously rich woman who seems to be misplaced by fate. She had no instinct of neatness, no idea of refinement, and very little understanding of human nature, since she regarded with eusplcion all who approached her. In her eyes everybody was after money her money and treatment was accordingly administered.

Fancy a woman like that having affection or friendship bestowed upon her. I believe that the power of money is waning a bit. Men and women are becoming important without its assistance. Artists of all kind3 and clever brains in practical directions are competing successfully with mere money. Good bridge whist plai-rs are welcomed by society in which the game is a favorite diversion.

Women of wit furnish entertainment which is at a premium in learned circles, and young men are taking brides wherever they find them to be interesting. Sometimes these are welcome additions to families, and sometimes 'they are real crossf-s which are thrown down at the earliest opportunity. The kind of treatment briles receive is largely a matter of Individuality. BETTY BRADEEN. REGARDDIG VEGETABLES.

Remember That most vegetables should be put on to cook in freshly boiling water. That salt should be added when they are about two-thirds done. That lying in very cold water for an hour or more will partially restore to wilted vegetables quality and freshness. That every green vegetable should be cooked rapidly, and uncovered, to retain its color. That, if the water is very hard, a tiny bit of soda added, no larger than a pea, will make the vegetables cooked in it tender and of better color.

Ordinary water does not require such addition. That when soft water is used the salt must be In from the first to prevent loss of flavor and substance. That cooking a vegetable after it la done toughens, darkens and detracts from its flavor. That the best dressing for vegetables at their perfection is butter, pepper and salt cauliflower and, perhaps, asparagus excepted. The older or staler vegetables are Improved by a cream of butter sauce the basis for the latter being the reduced liquid when the cooking is finished.

Rubbers That Have Stretched. The little half-goloshes, flitting over tho toe of the shoe, and held in place by a band over the heel, sometimes becomo useless long before they are worn out, because the band stretches and slips over the heel. There is no need, however. In such a case to buy a new pair, for any cobbler will make a couple of straps of soft leather, with tiny buckles at the end. If the end of the strap is slipped under the band of the golosh, at the back of the heel, and the strap buckled around tho ankle, it Is Impossible for the band to slip down.

The price charged Is usually only 15 cents a pair for the straps. Of course ribbon would do as well, but it becomes so saturated with wet that it is cold and unpleasant, whereas the leather strap throws off the water as the shoe does, and Is easily cleaned if it becomes muddy.
