"When asked whether she could recommend the craft for women, she answered, "As regards skill, women may become as dextrous wood carvers as men, but wood carving is as much an art as is the sculptor's, and art, for art's sake, must be the creed of its follower. As a money making work it is a failure, for the materials are costly and the process slow. In a modified form, however, as in designing appro priate decorations for furniture, it is full of possibilities. New York Telegram. NOT A SLAVE TO FASHION. The woman who cannot be happy un less fashionably dressed must sometimes envy her sister over whom fashion has no power, who cares only to be neat and comfortable, and goes her own way re gardless of the temptations of dry goods stores and millinery establishments. Think of the time saved, the money used for better purposes, as well as the peace of mind enjoyed by the women who entered a milliner's store, placed a bulky bundle on the counter and said, calmly: "I'd like to have you put a couple of yards of good, black ribbon with a little velvet on this bonnet and a little lining into it. I've worn it for six years and the trimming needs freshening up, but the bonnet itself is good for six years longer. I'll call for it to-morrow." Then this feminine philosopher walked out of the shop without bestowing a glance on the charming creations in lace and feathers and flowers, over which other women would have made them selves happily miserable for half the fore noon. TIIE PRINCE OF DOCTORS. "I have met the prince of doctors," said a vivacious woman just home from a year of European travel, "and I found him in Interlachen. I had been ill for several days with a digestive disorder,but kept up until, after twenty-four hours of continuous journeying, during which time I dared not taste so much as a sip of water for fear of increasing my distress, I reached that lovely Swiss town and sought the refuge of a hotel. Here I tumbled into bed, bidding the landlord send a doctor to me. I was too wretched to care who or what he was, and when a small, dapper, blond man, with spec tacles and slightly bald, sat down by my bed I had scarcely the interest to give him a second look. But presently his ipiestions aroused my curiosity He be jan with my infancy. I think he asked me when I cut my first teeth, and con linued making a most careful inquiry into my habit?, previous illness, constitutional tendencies, apd, indeed, all the physical ininutes of my career up to the moment of meeting him. Then he carefully looked me over, feeling my pulse, taking my temperature, looking in my throat, etc., md then he wrote a prescription and rang for the landlord. "The prescription was to be filled and be would wait for its return, and on the pot the landlord received a written memorandum of my diet for the day. Beef tea plain, beef tea with zwieback, ind biscuits these came at intervals ifter he had himself administered a potion and a powder, lhe next day and throughout my illness, which I prolonged to the last possible limit, he exercised the same espionage over my meals, and I must say the landlord was as zealous as himself. I never was more agreeably tick. Besides being so carefully attentive, the doctor was the most cheery and sympathetic of visitor?, and his manners tvere the perfection of delicate courtesy. When I asked for my bill I found that for this model treatment I had only to pay a few cents over a dollar a visit' New York Suii. FASHION KOTES. Faced cloth of light quality is recom mended for autumn traveling dresses. Traveling and dust cloaks are fre quently trimmed with pinked ruchings. . Fringes of jet and silk thrce-lourths of a yard deep are used for the ornamenta tion of dress skirts. : Three-quarter long, close-fitting coats have again appeared, after spending some time among old-fashioned relics of years ago. ' Lace hats will hold their own up to the time of snow and ice, and even then they will be put away reluctantly by girls on whom they are besoming. The Princess of Wales appeared at Sandown races all in one color, hat, k$tS glye with a f?trfiighv puff, ruffle or furbelow, to her feet. Fringes will be again popular during the winter, both in the light Chinese designs and in heavy grelots, partly of beads and partly of silk, the lattter for mantle and cloak trimmings. The lovely new tint of old rose, Ro man violet, strawberry and green, in several rare, beautiful shades, are among the dyes in Parisian toilets designed for autumn receptions and dancing par ties. : The newest patterns in fur garments for the winter fit the figure more closely than those of a year ago. The bulky linings of quilted satin are dispensed with in many cases, a heavy quality of silk being substituted, with but a thin layer of wadding beneath it. The bustle is entirely discarded by many of the best dressmakers, the de sired roundness of figure being produced by an arrangement of very small steels in the foundation skirt, which requires con siderable skill, as there should not be the remotest suggestion of their use. The newest round waists are made without darts, and slightly pointed front and back. They may be plain or full on the shoulders, with the fullness below plaited or gathered to the points at the waistline. The round, shallow yoke is often a feature of these waists, and is made of velvet. FUN. Very few persons can hold their -ow Dn their first sea voyage. A good many people with lock on the understanding seem to have lost the key. The credit of a financial company is liable to be swanped when its sinking' fund has been lost. i It is unkind to make a jest of aerial, navigation before inventors of air ships.' It is a soar point with them. ' Nabob "In what estimation are you held by your next-door neighbor?" fJay Dob "I don't know; I've never struck dim for a loan yet." Little Clara (who is crying because her papa is going to marry again) "Oh, vhat would my poor mamma say if she were alive?" Chicago Ledger. McCorkle "Isn't Briggs naturally a lazy man?"' McCracklc "Not exactly lazy; but he seems to think it is un healthy to work between meals." Life. The old man in the play is forever talk ing about "twenty long years ago," just is though there were long and short years, that could be picked out according aa the notion seizes you. "Is your father easy to get along with," asked George, as they sat on the doorstep. "Why, certainly. What made you ask?" "Nothing; only he seems to be a good deal of a kicker. ton Capital.

It is not often that a wolf spider is found in Illinois, and it is not surprising, therefore, that 3Ir. K. M. Truax, of Mor gan Park, was considerably startled the j olhcr m0rninjr while trimmiuir his lawn 1o run across one of these iil-favored in sects. He quickly recovered from his surprise, however, and soon had the crea ture safely imprisoned in & bottle.

The speci- j men in question ivunsu'es one and one- ! half-inches in length, and -its body is covered with a shell-like substance. Its ! stin is deadlv poison. It is a native of I northern Europe, although branches of the Mygalc family are found in the warm er climates of America. Mmc. Merian is authority for the statement that the American 31ygalc attacks and kills small birds, even o;oincj so far as to dracr hum- J ming birds out of their nests and devour them. The wolf snider is the most fcro 1 clous of the Mvirules, which, according to M. Walekcnacr, are divided into thirty-six species. The question is: How did the spider get to Morgan Park? Mr.Truax's theory is that it was in some way brought over by a irang of Italians who recently ar rived in tlii country and are now at work in Morgan Park. Chicago Tribune.
