It will interest women, particularly those
living in the country, to know that there are
eight edible and twelve poisonous varieties
of mushrooms to be found in the United
States. As these mushrooms, edible and
non-edible, resemble each other very much,
q knowledge of them can only be had by per-
sonal observation. This is certainly lus-
cious vegetable, but unless one is absolutely
sure. OF it, it is better not to eat mushrooms
at all than to run any risk. -

Professor Bruhl, Of Geneva, Switzerland,
who, like all sensible scientists, hos come to
believe that tt, brain is the organ Of thought,
comedies that volume, all things being equal,
is an evidence of power, but he says that
texture and temperament are quite as i'm
portant factors as size. Judged by these
standards, the professor says that the female
brain is, as a rule, superior to that of the
male, for what it lacks in volume it makes
up in the delicacy Of its formation and the
vitality of its cells as we'll as the larger ex-
ranse OF gray matter in its oonvolutions.

There are no people in the world fonder OF
music than the Welsh. From the humblest
hut OF the miner to the hall of the wealthy
landowner in Wales, music may be said to
be part Of their daily lives. It Is curious
fact, however, that with all their love OF
music, and their ability to render the same,
the Welsh have never given the world great
musical genius, either as a performer. a COM
poser or a singer. But it Is safe to say that
in proportion to the population there are no
people in the world who appreciate music SO
much or can render it so well as the Welsh.

BECOMING COTTON DREssEs.-Other mate
rails may come and go, but for summer wear
the dainty cotton gown must go on forever
The most becoming of these dresses are
made with four breadths, Sored breadth in
front, one gore on each side, and a straight
back breadth, very much as they were made
before the introduction Of the belt skirt.
This pattern can be recommended for all
dresses OF serviceable wear that are intended
to clear the ground. Tho skirt should be
cut four yards around tho bottom, gathered
slightly at the belt in front and at the sides,
while the greater part OF the fullness is
massed at the back in round box pleats, or
gathered, il the gown is cotton. I have
seen some very dainty gowns in cream white,
figured with tiny blossoms in the coloEs and
patterns Of Dresden china. They resemble
the old-fashioned brilliants; but the dress
makers call them "dlmities." These dimi-
ties are not to be confounded with the dim
ity lawn, which Is sheer goods, and has
been in the market for long time. These
new dimities are almost as heavy as satine.
A most becoming way Of making up these

and black check is made with plain skirt

and black check is made with plain skirt
and round bodice. The bodice is finished
with points Of black satin, back and front,
extending from the neck to the waist line.
The remainder OF the body Of the bodice is
covered with blue satin, overlaid with ecru
guipure, the scolop of the lace bordering the
black satin points. The sleeves OF the bodice
are Of plaid silk, and the wrinkled stock
collar. soft bolt, and soft trimming at the
bottom of the sleeves, are of turquoise velvet.
This combination of turquoise and black is
one of the most becoming and popular have
seen this season.

Professor Garner, who has become famous
through his study Of the so-called Simian

the quadrumana are closely allied to Elan.
~If there were any doubt Of this" he said to

times more talking than the males. Indeed"

scratch their heads, looking as if they had
forgotten every word ip their limited vocab-

other 80 as to make the group Of rufies only
five inches wide. Three rows Of lace bead
Ing of the narrowest kind border each rufde,
and in these rows Of beading the narrowest
black velvet ribbon is run. The effect Is very
pretty; and the black velvet may be revived
when the dress is washed. The bodice OF
this gown Is made with q full round waist,
finished with f1ve-inch bertha trimmed
with three rows Of black velvet run in the
beading. Similar rows OF velvet trim the
collar and end in little rosettes at the side.
The full lego mutton sleeves are finished
with five rows Of beading run with velvet
and tied to form rosettes on the outside

and ends at the left side of the front breadth.
POPULAR STRAW HATs.-During the past
three years very becoming little bonnet has
been generallyworn with tailor-made dresses,
but this is now being superseded by the
straw hat. The woman Of middle age wears
this hat as becomingly as a school girl
There Is one thing like about this straw
hat, and that is that it is genuine. It makes
no pretense to being a bonnet, either in its
trimmings or in the position in which it Is
worn. These trimmings are usually made
Of amour braid. This remember was in

FINE VEsTs.-Covert coating suits are sold
ready made in many Of tho stores, and at
prices that are within the reach Of all. While
this is the case, have seen suits Of the same
material made expensivslg, if not elegantly.
I have see yachting suits c! this material, alta

other reaching to the kaees. With these
coats, several vests are provided, in old style

costumes that have seen have been rigidly

cost.
have noticed in some crowds OF summer
travellers that mohair gowns are to be seen.
For summer travel they have the advantage
Of being light and they are rather more
elaborate in design than the usual tailor
gown. One Of light gray blue, with coat
quite long in the back, and belted there by
folds OF dark blue coming through the
sides on the front Of short coat, attracted
attention.

be sure, it is not always in harmony with the
complexion of brunette; but this can be
remedied by adding vest Of warm red
basket cloth or Of light yellow pique; while
q blond can choose vest Of white blue twill,
with white lines and cross-bars. I notice
also that, almost without exception, the
skirts in such gowns are plain. The skirt,
which should escape the floor all round, is
untrimmed, except by stitching above
hem, and is usually without lining. The
coat may be long or short, according to
fancy, and either single or double-breasted.
The revers and collar are. Of masculine cut,
and there are no fancy collarettes, butterfly
collars, or epaulettes seen. I notice that
the pockets are more modest, being mere
Sits, cut diagonally, and stitched, without
flaps.
