The tiny carpote worn with this

1t has become the style to trim hats

with n little crown piece underneath

used as vehicle for. displaying fruits,
flowers and folds of bright material.
A dark blue pancake sailor had sew

they fell down and mingled with the

Another hat was so arranged that

SLEEPING AFTER EATING.
Extract from Lecture by br. j. Fl. Ke

Extract from n Lecture by Dr. j. Fl. Kel-
loGg, OF the Battle Creek sanitarium.
Physiological experiments show that
sleep is not so profound when taken
right after full meal as on an empty
stomach. The majority of people will
testify that they wake up after such
maps dull and stupid and worth nothing
for work, whereas, before-dinner nap
would have been wholesome, since it
quiets the nervous system and prepares
the stomach for the reception and diges-
tion of food. The advocates of the
after-dinner nap sometimes say that
animals eat and go directly to sleep, but
think this is not true. The COW feeds
about for several hours and then lies
down Suder a tree and chews her cud
with her eyes closed, apparently in a
sort of revery, but she is not asleep; she
is masticating her food industriously.
But / am reminded of an English
Psychologist who gave two dogs each a
full meal and then allowed one to go to
sleep in the chimney corner and took
the other on chase through the coun-
try. When he returned he was cruel
enough to kill both dogs and found that
the one which had been resting in the
chimney corner had digested its food
while the other had not But this does
not prove that sleep is favorable to di-
gestion. 1t only proves that it is better
for the digestion of dog that he should
lie down and sleep than to be put on a
chase of a dozen miles Immediately
after eating. Very likely the dog in the
chimney corner was not asleep. Dogs
often lie down with closed eyes, but the
minute door opens or any sound is
made, one or both eyes fly open, show.
ing that he is taking care of things al
the while. However, l have noticed
dogs which eat and go to sleep that
would moan or bark, seemingly very
much troubled with nightmare or bac
dreams, just as people are who eat ant
go directly to sleep. This is due to irrita
ton of the solar plexus from the pres
sure and weight of full stomach. Al
the vital processes of the body are
allowed during sleep, digestion among
the rest, and in consequence the germ:
have better opportunity to attack the
food than if the gastric juice is more
active.-Reported by Helen L. Man

Handsome jeweled embroidery was

verv pretty. indeed. ,beeo rnantle,

Very pretty, indeed, these msntlea
are, and very becoming TO almost every
one, for they make a tall woman look
graceful, and q short one appear tall by
giving length to her waist and dignity
to her neck.
Dress collars are worn either very,
very high or they are not worn at all.
There is really no medium. OF the
high ones, the lowest are two inches.
The highest are nine inches in the back,
and as high in front as a woman's chin
will permit.
The dresses that have no collars at
all are cut round in the neck and
finished with cording or are made
slightly v shaped front and back. The
latter style is very becoming to ladies
with full throats and graceful necks.
And the round finish with cording looks
well upon young girls who have fair
! white skins.
AS finish to the very high collars,
chiffon is used upon gowns and wraps,
and mantles and cloaks. The chiffon is
gathered so closely that it makes lit
tie thick putting, and flares over the
edge of the collar, setting off the hair,
neck and chin in the most becoming
manner.
Feather trimming was worn for this
| purpose early in the spring, but it is
too warm now for the feather trim
ming, on gowns at least, and chiffon
must take the place Of it.
A bunch of court feathers arranged
similarly to those which ornament the
hair when one goes to bow down before
| England's gracious queen, is placed
upon the left shoulder of a ball gown
| that has no sleeves and so little bodice
| that it is not worth while to look foi
any of it above the bust line. At the
right shoulder bunch of ribbon is used,
| and on the left there are the feathers
and jeweled ornament.
Feathers are so fashionable that sea-
| side bellies, regardless of the fact that
they soon come out of curl, use them
for trimming fans and for pinning upon
any article of dress that may seem able
to bear it, f.s..
For instance, stylish girl, having in
her possession bunch of blue feathers

sees suggest a fancy dress outing party
rather than a street promenade or
shopping tour.
Beautiful seaside costumes are made
for those who are so fortunate as to
be able to enjoy them at the proper
time and place, and no one will be-
grudge the woman who is so favored
the pleasure which she experiences
when she beholds herself dressed in
seaside gown, ready for a walk along
the beach.
A French seashore dress which c4me
over with one of our American women,
who went to London for the season,
and has now returned for the glories of
our own dear Newport, was of most un-
pretentious homespun, in shade light
tan color.
All around the skirt were horizontal
raised stripes of a darker shade of tan.
These stripes were of heavy braid
about two inches wide and thirteen of
them were required to go around the
skirt, from the waistband to the hem
at the foot. On each side were let in
pointed panels of electric blue cloth.
The sleeves down to the elbow were
of the blue cloth braided with gold
cord and the pointed belt, high collar
and pointed bib, front and back, were
similarly ornamented.
Broad pointed revers turned back
over the arms and deep cuffs fell down
almost to the wearer's knuckles. The
cuffs, revers and bodice were all
treated with bands of braid similar to
the skirt.
This extremely pretty dress sounds
as if it might have been worn in the
street with propriety, but for some rea-
son, which the owner could not explain,
the combination of light tan, dark tan
and electric blue with the stripes run
ming around the entire dress gave the
suit Jack Tar look that made it seem
ridiculous on Broadway.
A bois gown that is to be worn, how
ever, right here upon our own Fifth
avenue, has charming fancy corselet
of plain gray lady's cloth, fashioned in
way that can only be understood
when one gazes upon the picture. The
sleeves and front of the skirt are of
plain gray lady's cloth and vandyke
in steel cord outlines the corselet. Upon
the cuffs white cloth is appliqued and
the high bodice and side quiltings are
also appliqued in the same fashion.

TIMBER.

AS elsewhere stated, the lumber trade
is the chief industry Of Aberdeen. To
make this pc inent and enduring the
matter OF supply is OF vital importance
and the requirements are fully met.
North, east and south of Grays harbor
there is such aquantity of timber available
that no child born into the world to-day
can expect to see it used up or even be-
come difficult Of access. The timber bear
ing land within reasonable reach OF the
waters OF the harbor are variously esti-
mated at from two to four thousand square
miles, and when it is considered that
there are from four to fifty million
feet to the square mile, the figures Of the
available supply are simply enormous.
All this timper must necessity find its
way down the rivers that flow into the
harbor, and the saving of it into luslber
will alone build great city at Aberdeen

VACANT LANDS.

There is Little Government land near
Aberdeen to be taken up, except in the
unserveyed districts to the north and a
small section Of country south of the
haruor, OF this there is yet large
amount unoccupied. Actual possession
is the only title obtainable to unsurveyed
lands, but the settler in good faith has no
trouble to hold his claim.
From the tenor of advices from Wash
ington City, it is believed there will be
sufficient money ohtainable to survey all
t..ese lands within reasonable time,
rendering them soon available for entry.
