Fluttery bows are pretty, and look
nice in breeze, but the loops have an
awful way of getting caught at the
buckle of the masculine belt now worn

belt is on yourself. Bows catching in
this way to belt not on youreelf have
been known TO help along proposal and
do all sorts OF nice things, That is all
very we'll if You have .soiplanned it. but
consider the time when the bow takes
to working on it's own hook, according
to its own plan, when ma catches you,
or George goes off with so much OF YOU

should think of these things when yon

there was another affair that missed
fire. The beading is very apt to print
its pattern on your cheek under some
circumstances, or on hie cheek. A man
can't be expected to 60 around with q
fiat iron and clothespine when he wants
to hug girl. nor does he like to have
his cheek all dadoed either. These are
hints and it's just as well for the g!rls to
be careful.

Tryon Died as Burgoxre Died.


There was remarkable similarity be-
tween the fate of Admiral Tryon, who
perished when the Victoria went down,
and that of Captain Hugh Burgoyne, the
commander of the Captain when she was
lost. Private dispatches received in Eng
land say that the admiral commanded
his men to save themselves, but refused
to save his own life. When the Captain
capsized and after struggling to- right
herself finally turned over completely,
floating with her keel uppermost, Cap
tain Burgoyne, Mr.. May, the gunner,
and a seaman named Heard reached the
pinnace.> The ship almost Immediately
disappeared, but her second launch, with
10 men on board, came alongside the
pinnace.
A sudden lurch separated the two
boats before Captain Burgoyne and
Heard had time to board the launch.
The sailor took his commander by the
hand and proposed to jump. Save
your own life, my man." Captain Bur
goyne replied. The boats separated
more and more, and Heard exclaimed,
will you come or not, sir? Burgoyne
answered: Jump and save yourself.
shall not forget you some day" The
Sailor leaped and finally reached the
launch, but the captain was not again
seen.
He was descendant of Sir John Bur
goyne of the Revolution and the only
son of the then constable of the tower,
another Sir John. Admiral Tryon was
regarded as England's chief defender,
and Burgoyne was a skillful and brave
officer. 1t is singular fact that the
two officers seryed together as ieuten-
ants in the trenches before Sebastopol,
being at the time attached to the land

Some Botanical Rarities to bo Found
Tbara

Some Botanical Rarities to be Found
There.
Among the varied tropical forms to be
found on the line OF the Mt. Lowe rail-
way are many species OF immortelles. or
everlasting flowers, which grow in great
abundance from 1900 to 1000 feet above
the sea.
The Chlorogalum Pomeridianum is
the long botanical name of the Mexican
soap plant, which has an onion.like
bulb, and when sliced has the cleansing
power of eosp, thus justifying its name.
While the Douglas spruce, Pseudotsu-
"a, Is very abundant and grows from
base to top, some splendid specimens
attaining height of $50 to 200 feet,
there is but single specimen OF the
Pinus Monophylla, the single beard or
Indian nut pine, which, however, is in
splendid condition, and crowns the
summit OF Mt. Love like q monarch,
breasting the winter storms and reach
ing up into the summer sky in lonely
grandeur.
The mistletoe (Phoradendron faves-
cens) is a parasite of the omnipresent
liveoak tQuercus albus) and is now in
full bloom. The roots OF this plant
pierce the shaggy bark of the oak, and
it derives its entire sustenance from the
tree, and in turn it's lace-like drapery
hangs in graceful and ornamental fes-
toons from the branches.

A Vision Of Justice.


Where gilded lords their honors wear,
The banquet king sits at the head,
The guests are drunk on vintage rare.
And far belov on every side,
No more by crlnglng fear snbdued,
And murmuring like a rising tide,
Ikee the countless multitude.
AS rivers to the ocean roll,
One purpose burning In each soul,
And on their lips single song,
One ommou cause, one flag uniurled,
They kneei to neither king nor clan,
Their co lntry is the round, wide word,
Their creed the brotherhood of man.
The feast goes on; the proud rejoice;
They hear a sOuad of distant waves,
And think ii but the torrents voice
Com planning through the highland caves;
IT is no mountain etrea M, that leaps
RebelIlous OF its rocky bands,
II the lifting of the desps.
The sinking of the ancient lands.
Resistless as the pulse of doom
The ocean sYays from shore to shore,
And frightened kings fit through the gloom
Like stars that fall to rise no more,
The high a-waI is OF caste are gone,
The nent-up foods their chains have burst,
The ioilers face the god en GAVIN,
The first are last. the last are first
The Old goes down, tbs New ascends,
Ils sunny isles in glory rise.
A rainbow DER tbs deluge bends,
And Labor's curse dissolves and dies;
The gods of gold no more hold sway;
The peop g bow TO Truth alone,
And He whose voice the tide obey
Remains forever with his own.

Objects of the Peary Expedition.

The chief objects of the Peary expedi-
ton include careful examination Of the
detached land masses which are known
to lie to the north of Greenland, and
which have been seen Gu previous expe-
ditions, not only by Lieutenant Peary,
but also by Lockwood and Brainard,
little or nothing being at present known
of their extent and general character, and
the delimitation of considerable por-
tipn of the east coast of Greenland, ex-
tending from Independence bay about
300 miles south to Cape Bismarck. This
portion of the coast has never been ex-
plored, although it was seen from YES
sells coasting in that vicinity about 200
years ago. He also intends to ascertain
the transyerse profile of Greenland along
or near the seventy seventh parallel from
Cape Bismarck to .I4glefeld gulf Along
this line Greenland is ABOUT $50 miles
wide. incidentally be will also con
tinue the study of the arctic highland

juet full from the neck. 1t can be quite
separate from the long cloak and run on
a piece OF ribbon. This second little
cape should come to about the hips and
ne covered with rutIlss of lace or chif-
fon. Each ruffle may be flushed with
q row OF watered ribbon, or it will be
pretty enough plain. Ifthere is a yoke
(and if your neck is short there had
better be yoke) the ruffles stop at the
one that outlines the yoke, and that one
is very big over the shoulders. Ii there
is no yoke the ruffles go round and
round to the ono at the neck. The
short cloak is worn with the large one.
The two look, thus, like one garment,
and in white or black the effect is de-
cidedly modish. Perhaps black is the
better taste, with great black lace hat
and plumes or wilderness of lace. A

The simple and jaunty affair of the
fourth illustration IS composed OF two
capes and is about Is inches in length.
The longer cape is in mode colorsd cloth
in two parts, each having pointed end
which crosees over in front and fastens
behind after the style of a serpentine
waist. Over these is the second, shorter
cape of Russian green cloth edged with
tineel passementerie. The collar ia

The most noticeable feature Of the last
example sketched is its very dressy

crepe and the skirt 10 lined with laven-
der silk and trimmed with four bias
folds OF black velvet in different widths
as shown. The inside of the Skirts fin

and it is attained by covering the bal
loon sleeves with bead work eqaulettes.
They are pretty and quite modish, but
the moral OF the tale they'll tell has al

paragraphs. The wearer pictured is Of

the girls need beware. For the rest Of
this costume, the ekirt 10 very wide and

 The young woman who used sea moss in place of either crest or monogram upon her summer note paper had rarely two pieces that were alike. She simply picked up the lovely things the sea brought in. She washed them free of sand; she strengthened them out, then pressed them beneath heavy book. As reward she wrote letters that really carried flavor of the sea and sent notes permeated with an essence more subtle than any perfume. The lovely forms were arranged with an eye to artistic ef- feet. They were grouped so as to get the best color results, and as they were held i'll place by light coating of paste they seemed just waited there by the gentle summer breeze. And the best of the idea is that stores may be carried away at the end of the season for con tinued similar use.
 The photograph frames that are popu- lar with lovers of fancy work i'll its many forms take a variety of shapes. but the main idea is the same for them all. The best is the simplest booklet form that stands open and shows space for two cards directly facing one another. It is made of drawing or water color paper, and its novelty is only in the decora- tion, which was all of moss.
 The different sorts and the different forms had all been selected and arranged with care. Around each opening they form perfect wreath.
 Hammock pillows and yachting pill lowS-indeed any pillows for outdoor use-are never so good as when filled with the dried moss, as Is we'll known. Nor Is there any reason why this filling cannot serve as well for indoor use. The odor of the sea that it bears is welcome at all seasonsof the year. and if the moss has power to induce seaside dreams and perfect seaside rest it would indeed be well to carry it into the winter home, says the New York Times. which suggests that cushion made of soft. pliable silk. embroidered with sea anemones. starfsh and the like, stuffed full with the various dried moSScs and interlined oNy with cheese cloth or similar soft stuff. would be grateful to both eye and touch.

 They also loved to capture beautiful ladies and offer them their hands in mar riage. If the lady said no, she was al- ready married. the viking would say that could be fixed in few moments and would often throw the husband over board with cooking stove tied to his leg.
