AUTUMN WRAPS AND HATS
Autumn wraps, aside from the peler-
ines OF velvet and Ottoman silk to
match the costume, are made either in
the visite shape-a style which has
loat none Of its popularity-or in the
modified Hubbard shape, so becoming
to slender women. The models for
general wear seem likely to continue in
fashion through the cool season for
mantles Of silk and brocade. while the

preferred for fabrics of heavier de-
scriptipp. The black-corded silk pc
lisse. lined with thin surah, and richly
trimzned with haaek laee and fots q
black satin ribbon, viii form the most
stylish and elegant transition from the
lace pelerine of the summer to the
heavy winter cloak.

Taking a Vacation.

often wonder how many people get
back after the vacation really rested
and refreshed. Most of the men and
women one meets at a summer resort
seem to be on the go nearly all the
time. They come to the hotel, stay q
day or two, then rush to the lakes for
a few days fishing, 60 somewhere else
for day or two more, and finally
reach home. leaving it very much an
open question whether they have profit
ed either in body or in mind by being
perpetually on the tramp. Really
many people make their holidays very
fatiguing affairs, and in place Of re-
turning home rested, refreshed, and
ready for work, they come back to a
sick bed, and a dreary recovery from
overwork and exposure. 1t is great
mistake to make toll OF pleasure,
work of your holiday. Often better
remain at home and take country
walks, with home as your center, than
spend half your holidays in a railway
car, and the. remainder in all the
fatigues of sightseeing and the insanity

aspect, is q serious one. and cannot be

Well, such people at all events have

to them in the matter of diet is as fol-
lows:
Eat moderately; on no account take
what may be called full meal.
Take food whenever hungry; for in

ter getting up, merely going out Of

joint, or steak, or chop, with potatoes
sparingly and little green's, a little
soup, and tapioca or rice pudding. No
pastry, or sweets, or cheese. Take no
fluid until you have nearly finished the
solids.
Vary the food every day. Fish only
if quite digestible, which it oftentimes
is not; no veal or pork, but mutton,
beef, game. and fowl.
Fruit before breakfast, but not after

partment who takes her departure ior

pected Of them. they took possession OF
Miss Frank and escorted her down stairs
to the room lately occupied by Mr..
Stone, where tables extending the full
length Of the room were just loaded
down with goodies, nuts, candies, cakes,
pies and ice cream, with lemonade in
abundance. After the children and
teachers had eaten and drank to their
hearts content, they finished the days
exercises by singing songs and playing
gnmes until p. NJ, when oil went sor-
rowfully homeward; sorrovful because
the day was not longer.
Having quite supply Of cream leit
after the festivities were oTer, u was
voted that il be taken to the hospital
patients, and the pastry remaining waa
given where il was thought il would be
the most acceptable. Miss Barbara
Lang presented her teacher with hand-
some cake, beautifully decorated, which
Miss Frank promised to take home with
her, TO keep as long as II will last
which will not be very long II there are
any children in the vicinity.
Miss Frank has been employed here

The gratifying news was Aaahsd from
Portland last Wednesday, that tho Pa
cifc Coast delegation had got there safe
ly and stopped. There were grave ap-
prehensions that the impetuous youths
would keep right ON over the verge df
the Sunrise. State md tumble into Hhe
unpacific waters of the green Atlantic,
but this assurance that they were adroit-
iy headed OF in their mad career and
safely corralled, will permit the sage
brush citizens to breathe freely again.
Those Portlanders are evidently an
appreciative people, for it is recorded
that they got up saltwater excursion
Tor the boys, which made 'em awfully
sick, but reception at the City Hall in
the evening-at which plain soda and
ginger-pop were the exclusive beverage

pins again. According to the Press dis
patch, big crowd had gathered to do
homage to the impeEious Occidentais,
the latter just turning themselves loose,
and maintaining the high literary repu-
tation Of the Great Basin and Western
Slope by vigorous bpmbardment Of
of the multitude with the entire ,collec-
ton of Lindley Murray's parts Of speech
greatly enriched by heavy draft On the
cowboy vocabulary Of the classic corral.
The excessive modesty of our esteemed
citizen, Counsellor j. H. r., is painfully
apparent 10y the extreme brevity OF his
remarks on that auspicious occasion

Captain John A. Palmer, OF our sister
village came out boldly to the front, and
with one of those impromptu happy ef-
forts for which he is famous, rescued the
trailing banner Of the little old Battle
Born from threatened .obscprity and ig-
nominous eclipse. In giving the pithy
speech of the Captain, we quote from
the dispatch which is supposed to be in
his own words: Captain James A.
