this morning, although a strong easterly
breeze still prevailed and there was mod
crate sea running. Many people came
from Cannes, Nice and other places In eX-
pectation of seeing race between Ailsa

ment Ailsa did not put In an appearance,
and it was reported here that she had been

public, M. Felix Faure. The course was
twenty miles long, the yachts sailing three
times around triangle.
The greatest interest was manifested in
the little American-built Dakotah as she
emerged from the harbor with her main
sail reefed, carrying no top sail and steered
by her owner. young Mr.. Henry Allen, who
was clothed from head to foot in suit of
oil skins. Dakotah was no sooner outside
the harbor than she plunged her bow into
the big waves, which Immediately swept
her decks fore and aft. Dakotalis COM
petitors today were Rolla III and Bebell.

Charles Frederick Worth was born in
Bourne, Lincolnshire, England, in 1925. At
the age Of thirteen he was apprenticed to
a printer. his parents being DESTROYS that
he should learn that trade but he evinced
a strong hostility to handling type and
abandoned the printing office after he had
served about seven months. He then went
to London and through the assistance of
friend secured position in q Diapers (dry
goods) shop. which position he left to enter
the employment of Swan &1 Edgar, diapers,
where he became a favorite He first con-
ceived the idea Of designing fashions
through converse tons with the buyers Of
Swan & Edgar, and frequently made sug-
gestions which the heads of departments
were not slow to see in a favorable light.
The more he talked with the buyers the
more he resolved to go to Paris, and soon he
began the study of French. When about
twenty-one years of age he went to Paris
and shortly after his arrival In that city
pany, and in a few years was placed at the
head of the department. In his new ca
pacity he inaugurated many new depar-
lures. While in the employ of Gageln G
Company he received medals for displays
at the London and Paris expoSitions Later
he established the firm of Worth & Boberg
and in 1870 founded the famous house of
w orth. His fame as a dreSSmaker was world
wide, and among the many admirers of his
skill was the ex-Empress Eugenie for
whom he made great many elegant dress
es. 1t has been said that while Paris rules
the world in fashion, the man who ruled
Paris-M. Worth--was a Lincolnshire Eng
land, lad, so that really 1t was an English
man who was the arbiter of the worlds
fashion.

Food vs.. Medicine.

People often wonder why it is that
physicians SO universally prescribe
cod liver oil nowadays instead of medi
cines. The reason is easily explained.
OF late years the medical profession
has dependable less upon powerful drugs
and medicines and more upon nourlsh.
ment to effect cures, the result being
that where they formerly took cases
in their own hands, physicians now
work of overcoming the ills of life IL
her own way.
The modern school of physicians ma:
found that ced liver oil is one of the
most nutritious OF foods, and will dc
more to give natural strength anG
tone 20 the body than almost any
other known noCrishment. 1t is in
itself fat, but it contains substances
that make it popularity rich fat. 1t
not only lnsures u proper nourlsh
rnent OF the body, but it supplies the
waste of disease or chronic ailments,
and thus serves double purpose.
In former years there were two OBJ
]ections to cod liver oil. These were
its vile taste and its tax upon the
stomach. Many preferred being i'll
to taking such narseating dose, while
others could not retain the oil after
taking it. 1t remained for the chemist
to render the oil palatable and make
it in an easy form for the stomach by
converting it into an emulsion, thus
accomplishing by mechanical process
what had been left for the systeo z
do.-New York Telegram.

Rabbits for the Market.

1t is not generally known that q
rabbit ranch exists near this city on
what promises to be quite an extensive
scale. J. B. Baumgartner and Mat
thias Foerg are the owners of the
ranch, and already have barn forty
feet long and divided up into stalls,
all OF which are now occupried by
bunny and his numerous progeny.
The rabbits are the lop-eared va
riety, breed exceeding scarce and held
at fancy prices in the United States.
Mr.. Baumgartner imported two pairs
from Switzerland year and half
ago, paying $500 for them. He now
has over sixty rabbits from those two
pairs.
The rabbits breed seven times year
and have from eight to ten to litter.
When full grown they weigh from
fourteen to eighteen pounds. They
are most delicious eating, their flesh
being considered superior to chicken.
As they command from fifteen to
twenty cents per pound, rabbit farm
ing is much more profitable than
chicken raising.
Like ordinary rabbits they are prae.i
tically omniverous. They are bear i,
tiful animals, with their long, silky
hair and fluffy fur. Unlike other rab-
bits, they do not burrow except at
breeding time, and are exceedingly
tame by nature and easily kept. Baum
garten & Foerg say that they have
only made fair beginning in the
business and are already planning to
enlarge their building and ranch

she said ezcitedly.
'Will mama cere?" the little voice
asked wistfully.
'I'm thinkin' she viii an she
won't" the Irlshwoman muttered to
herself. Her big red hands were ner-
vous, but she moved them briskly,
and soon had the boy dressed IN the
dainty little garments in which his
mother loved to make him beautiful.
Then she took him across the street,
and made an inquiry or two OF the
boy in the hall of the opposite house.
''He's been sick q good while. but
he's gi5tin' better. He's been into
some O. them countries where they We
been fghtin' wild niggers, an it jest
about killed him. He's settin' up

right. I'll take him up"
Wilbur took his hand trustingiy,
and followed him into the elevator.
They had no elevator in their house.
Margaret followed too. She stood in
side the car and heard the door open
and shut. Her hands were ciasped.
Then she went home.

''I'Il go. What are their names?

Mrs. Clint hurried across the street,
divided between anger and good feel
ing toward these people who had taken
q fancy to her boy. She didn't stop
to look at the names. She walked
into the elevator and asked to be taken
to the fifth floor. She knew there
was only one fat whose entrance was
here.
Inside she heard voices, her boys
voice. She rang the bell, and there
was the sound OF his little feet run
ming eagerly across the floor. He was
so fond of opening the door for THEN
infreauent visitors that he was doing
it for these people.
The door was flung open, and in the

WORDS OF WISDOM.

The man who knows the least shows
it the most.
The man who leans on his blessings
cannot walk straight.
The easiest thing for a fool to do is
to tell how little he knows.
A mistake is apt to attract more at
tention to us than virtue.
A watch and man to be any good
must have some Ego" to them.
Good fortune sometimes comes to us
in q very shabby-looking carriage.
The man goes to bed tired who
spends the day looking for an easy
place.
Who knows how to measure the size
of lie and to tell whether it is big or
little?
1t is a singular fact that the blunt
man is apt to make the most cutting
remarks.
Only those whose sense Of duty is
abnormally developed love all their
relatives.
The fellow who makes the most
trouble for the average man is inside
his own coat.
The best and cheapest thing the
world has ever known is charity, and
yet how few possess it.
The man who has no confidence in
womanhood is utterly unworthy of the
confidence of womankind.
Hatred always Injuries the one who
harbors it far more than it does The
one against whom it is directed.
If the world owes you living it
will never pay you the debt unlesa
you hustle around and collect it. j.,
If you will honestly try to mend
your own faults you will have ittld
time to find fault with other people.
The hornet, like the gossip, would
not be such bad thing to have about
if it wasn't for the sting in its tail

Treatment of Criminals.

A very strong argument for the s'in-
definite sentence" of criminals, with
probationary release on parole, was
made by Professor Charles A. Collin
at the recent anniversary meeting of
the Massachusetts, Prison Association.
Professor Collin regards this system
as ''the foundation cornerstone of any
rational, scientific method of treating
prison convicts.' ''The transforma-
ton of the criminal into a serviceable
member of society,"" he said, sis the
only effective protection of society
against him. The mere temporary
caging of the criminal as wild beast
is protection to society for the time
being, it is true. But if, when he is
let out of his cage, he is worse than
when he went in, he may be more
wary and cunning thereafter, but he
will be more dangerous to society than
before he was Gagged" Under the
present system the convict is dis
charged at the end of fixed term
with new suit OF clothes and few
dollars in his pocket. Chow many
graduates of Harvard University"
Professor Collin asks, dropped upon
the world in such fashion, with all
the benefits in character, ability and
reputation which Harvard can give
them, with no friends except such as
beckon them to haunts of vice and
criminal ways of earning living
how many Harvard graduates under
such circumstances would get through
the next two years without being COM
PEELED to beg, borrow or steal? How,
then, can you expect the discharged
prison convict, with the tirmest of
good resolutions las many at that mo-
ment have, but with no satisfactory
references to previous employment,
with no friends of whom he can bor-
row, intoxicated with the sudden sense
OF freedom, to avoid the commission
of new crimes before he can earn al
honest living" --Chicago Herald.

Making a Lamp NoxiOns.

Some women, through motives of
economy, turn the flame in kerosene
lamp low, when necessary to leave it

work by, thing they would not do if
they were aware that the oil con-
sumes just as fast, but the gas does not
burn. hence is thrown off into the
room giving the horrible odor, which
is not only offensive to smell, but
poisonous to human life. The gas
thus thrown off is capable of causing

There's beauty in the dawning light,
And twilight fair or stariit night
Has each its charm and grace;
But lovelie- still on earth to me,
The fairest thing my eye can see,
The beauty OF thy face.
There's calmness on the oceans breast
As deep and blue it seems to rest
Meath bluer heavens above,
But deeper, ca!mer. still to me
Than ever sea or sky can be,
Thine azure eyes. my love!
There's music in the running stream,
And music when the woodlands seem
Awake with songs of birds;
But sweeter. dearer. still to me
Than natures voice can ever be.
