The militia boys OF Seattle are quite envious
Of the good fortune OF the Portland military
companies. Multouomah county, realizing the
necessity OF fostering a military spirit among
the growing and active young men OF Portland,
put up splendid building OF brick and stone,
covering an area OF 100 by 200 feet, for its mill

been enlarged, 1t now covering an area OF 200

The First Chew.

Mr.. William ID. Howells gives the fol-
lowing description of the first chew of to-
bacco in lIarper's Young People:
The boy said it was a peculiar kind of to-
bacco, and was known as molasses tobacco
because it was 50 sweet. The boy was him
self chewing vigorously on large quid,
and launching the juice from his lips right
and left like a grown person, and my boy
took rs large a bite as his benefactor babe
him. He found it as sweet as he had been
told it was, and he acknowledged the apt
ness of its name of moasses tobacco. 1t
seemed to him golden opportunity to ac-
qulre Il noble habit on easy terms He let
the quld rest in his cheek, as he mad seen
men do, when he was not crashing it be
tween his teeth, and for some moments he
poled his plank up and down the canal boat
with ii sense of triumph that nothing
marred.
Suddenly the boat seemed to be going
round and round, and the sky wheeled
overhead The sun was lodging about
strangely. Drops of sweat burst from the
boys forehead; he let fall his pole and said
that he thought he would 90 home. The
fellow who gave him the tobacco began to
laugh and the other fellows to mock, but
my boy did not mind them. Somehow, he
did not know now, he got out of the canal
boat and started homeward, but at every
step the ground rose as high as his knees
before him, and then, when he got his foot
high enough and began to put it down, the
ground was not there.
He was deathly sick, and when he reached
home and showed himself, white and hag
gard, to his frightened mother, he had
scarcely strength enough to gasp out a
confession of his attempt to retrieve the
family honor by learning to chew tobacco
In another moment nature came to his re-
lief and then he fell into deep sleep which
lasted the whole afternoon, so that it
seemed to him the next day when he woke
up, glad to find himself alive, if not so very
lively.
Perhaps he had swallowed some of the
poisonous juice of the tobacco: perhaps it
had acted upon his brain without that.
His father made no very close inquiry into
the facts, and he did not forbid him the
use of tobacco. 1t was not necessary; in
that one little experiment he had got
enough for whole lifetime.

Tennis Costumes.

The favorite colors are cream, light blue,
pink and mauve. Stripe patterns will DE
worn more than checks this summer. The
cream colored stuffs are streaked with
bright lines of green, pink, blue or gold.
a pretty material in pale pink had narrow
stripes of white silk, and a beautiful fabric
in ivory white, made expressly for a cos
tuner who wanted something exclusive,
was patterned at intervals of about an inch
and a half with three lines of green. Ten
mis- rackets and balls in blue or red on a
light ground look rather smart. For short,
loose fitting jackets there are smooth sur
faced cloths in pretty colors, patterned
with small spots In a contrasting shade
Elaborate tennis costumes are usually
made of delaine or foulard.

THREE WORDS.
I've read about a happy pair
Who dwelt amid surroundings fair,
Where all their wants were well supplied
And nothing to them was denied,
Save one small luxury-a food
Which probably was pretty good,
But one which they could do without,
And which they need not care about.
Yet they were tempted in some way
Just how it was | need not say
To eat this food which seemed most sweet,
Because twas forbidden treat.
1t was a naughty thing to do,
And they were punished for it too.
Compelled to leave their happy home,
They had wide space DER which to roam,
For population was so sparse
That dwelling places were not scarce.
Expelled from WHOLE they had to toll
And get their living from the soil
Such was the penalty decreed,
Though it was not IAN END OF GREED"

The smartest shoes for wearing with out
door attire are of seal brown leather They
harmonise with any color, and are not so
conspicuous as Russia leather. Some pref
ty tennis shoes are of ooZe skin in medium
shades of tan and brown. The newest
evening shoes are in black brocaded satin,
and are decorated with small paste buckles.
Stockings of fine Isle thread or silk are
seen embroidered in floral designs; others
are covered with a dice pattern. Stockings
in soft shade of Russia leather. with open
work fronts, look pretty worn with shoes
made of that material 1t would be impos-
sible to say which are the favorite colors
for evening wear, The best make of silk
stockings are as transparent as the finest

creasing the speed until it is very rapid,

And muscles wrought of steel,

He could uproot giant oak
With little strain or fuss,
Hold out in either hand a full

He'd climb the Dhawalageri,
And on his shoulders bear
A fierce or two of good old rye
And never sweat hair.
He'd swan across the sea and tGwed

He could, when healthy, tear in shreds
A hotel sirloin steak.

A task that took his life,
He grew DER confident and went

HOW SAvAGES PRODUCE FIRE.

A Plan Practiced by the Dark Skinned
Races who Inhabit New Guinea.
Savages produce fire by rubbing two
pieces of wood together, but the methods
of doing this are various. Some tribes take
two pieces of wood, and sharpening one of
them to point insert it in holy made in
the other piece, and twirl it rapidly until
sparks fly out, which they catch on finder,
and fire is thus kindled.
