Many pastures are injured beyond

of the crop is beyond frost damage,

for music should cultivate it assidu-

WILLIAM ZEGLER, Of Detroit, is said
% be growing Il nev tongue imme-

1ally gave him. The name of the in
surance company he is soliciting for is

NEXT to Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe
the most successful American author,
from pecuniary point of view, is Gen.
Lew Wallace, whose Ben Hur" alone
has earned him more than one hun
dred Thousand dollars in royalties.
MISS MATT GRIM, the young novelist,
was born in Louisiana, but has spent
most of her life in Georgia. At pres
ant she is engaged on novel and a
play. In appearance she is graceful
and girlish. She is still quite young.

JAPANESE CHILDREN.
Their Moral Requirements and Lack Of
Religious Training.

The moral education of japanese
children is conducted partly at home
and partly in school. and is based
largely upon the teachings OF the his
tory of the country. Intrepid valor,
zeal. sohriety. directness of speech.
extreme courtesy, implicit obedience
to parents and superiors, and defer
entail reverence and regard for old
age--these are among the chief char
acteristics looked for in BOYS; while
industry. gentleness. faithfulness and
cheerful demeanor are required of girls
Little or no Importance is attached
20 the religious training of children.
Whether the parents be Buddhists or
ShintoiSts il matters not, for in either
ease the children rarely take any part
in the religious life of their
parents OF elders, and indeed U.S.
ually grow ap in blissful ignoranea
as To what ID is all about True,
they may be occasionally taken TO ths
temple, and taught TO rub their palms
together, clap thrice, and incline their
heads toward the shrine, as they toss
their Offering of rim through the wood
en- grating OF the huge money-till.
They may have some vague notion that
there is something meritorious in all
this. but nothing more. although every
japanese home has iatticsd niche. or

and Penates, or Daikoku and

quaint fgures-D Daikoku with his baa
of rice, and Ebisu with his wise smile
and accompanying fsh--are regarded
more Rs symbols Of good luck than
supreme beings, and are retained, 10

of green mousseline de sole made it
rather startling. Three full ruffies of

not be purchased at the beginning Of
the season, by all means wait until
later.
Some of the less fortunate folks are
not able to stay away the entire sum-
mer, but can often take only a month
or two weeks. In such cases it is
wisest to take this vacation in August,
Or at the beginning of September; for
then all the pretty trifies SO dear to
the heart of the vacation girl laay be
bought at a great saving to her. She
can afford to look trifie less charm
ing in the city for the sake of being
bewitching while away. So she gladly

June and July, and then, in August,

The finest of silk ringhams, that have
soft sheen about them, and most beau
tiful pale shades, either dotted or plain,
are now only forty-eight cents yard.
These make up almost prettier than
silks, and it pays to include one in the
simmer wardrobe.
The silk counters, also, were closely
crowded. A good quality of China
silk, all striped in bright colors. cherry

Der of others, was down to thirty-eight
cents. The women bought these for
waists and fronts.
Then there were others at fifty cents
in flower patterns; and wide India silks
few cents higher.
OF course, in the matter of stockings,
gloves and boots, there is always more
or less reduction and so-called bargain

WHAT A HORRID MAN SAYS.
Masc uline "Don'ts" Demanding Feminine
Attention.

Attention.
Don't hate other women so. Think
of the way you look at one another on
the street. Don't keep all your polite
ness for us.
Don't keep smoothing the wrinkles
out of your waist. A few wrinkles will
keep you from looking hideously
smooth, like fashion plate.
Don't have your skirt badly fastened
at the back SO that your undersloirt
becomes visible. You can't see this
and no woman seems to tell yop.
Don't get off a car with your back to
the horses. Men get a great deal OF
fun out of your persistency in doing
this. But you are not bound to amuse
them.
Don't stand at the door of street
car and worry some man near at hand
INTO giving you seat when there are
empty seats at the head Of the car.
You do all this
Don't leave your handkerchiefs and
oocket-book in your Ap when you are
riding in street car. Some man Will
pick theinup for you as you are pass
ing out, but they wiz get muddy.
Don't try TO have long waist. For
three thousand years the artists-the
professors and conservators of beauty
have been saying that a short waist
is the more beautiful At least please
take the hint.
Don't wait until you get in front Of
a ticket Office window before taking
ont your pocketbook. The wives of
eight men who are patiently waiting
the opportunity 10 buy tickets are
wondering why they are so late al
