for It's entire makeup. Time was when
during the early months of deep mourn
ing 1t was necessary to let the long veil
hang over the face, but medical men
were against this, especially In hot
weather, and it was unwise from many
points of view, so 1t is no longer i'm
perative. The veil may be of heavy
Grape, but silk nuns yelling is prefer
able. 1t is so attached to the little bon
net that 1t can be drawn across the face
or allowed to hang permanently there,
though as n rule it depends from the
back of the bonnet. reaching almost or
quite to the foot of the skirt.
For widow and for the older daugh-
ters heavy mourning is expected for
six months, and for the former strict
taste demands year Of such wear.
For her that means black cashmere,
crepe or bombazine, widows cap
and the veil over the face; for the
daughter 1t means all black, of which
crepe forms part. Bombazine, always
accepted as a mourning material, is now
especially acceptable because Of its
vogue under the name Of mohair, and
because it is the coolest form of black
mourning goods to be had.
A suitable model Of heavy mourning
for young widow is shown here in the
first illustration. The skirt is of bonn
bazine, which takes admirably this

near the northern extremity of that
lake, on the west shore. Thence, with
no companions except small party of
natives, he penetrated to the little
known regions far to the southwest
about Lake Bangweolo, which were the
scene of DR.. Livingstone's last journey.
Near the site of the deserted village Of
Chitambo, on the south shore Of that
lake, Mr.. Glave found the tree, at the
base Of which the heart of the great
missionary was buried by his devoted
followers, and on which Jacob VAIN
wright-the Nassick boy, who read the
burial service-chiseled the words: "Dr.
Livingstone, May 40 1873. Yazuza
Mniasere, Vchopere." The body, after
such embalming as the natives could
give 1t, was enclosed in canvas, dashed
to pole, and thus carried to Baga-
moyo, on the coast opposite Zanzibar.
1t was buried in the center of the nave
Of Westminster abbey, on April Is.

Decay Kept at Raw.

Moderate eating through life does
much to retard old age. A diet con-
tanning a minimum amount Of earthly
particles preserves the system from
functional blockages. Ossific matter
deposited In the body through long
years of unthinking diet must be dis
solved as far as practicable. Attention
must be given to the drinking water;
much of 1t contains lime in excessive
proportion, or other mineral elements.
Distilled water and acid fruits are eff
cacious and the least harmful. Their
chemical action retards the stiffening
of the joints, rheumatism and, In fact,
old age. The daily use of distilled wa
ter Is, after middle life, one Of the most
important means of preventing secre-
tions and the arrangement of health.
This rule observed, and taking plenty
of fruit, especially juicy uncooked ap-
pies, avoiding all foods rich in earthly
salts, physical decay or deterioration
will be kept at bay.

is of Henrietta cloth bordered with
crepe and is not intended to cover the
face. This dress will be suitable for
wear after the period Of crepe mourn
ing, for the bodice, not shown in the
cut, is modishly made and self
trimmed.
For the death Of an adult or nearly
goes into deep mourning for six months
and by the end of a year her attire need
show no reminder of her loss. The
same rule holds, too, for bereaved
sister. Ordinarily in such cases crepe
is not used as freely as when life
partner or parent has departed life, but
this is a matter that Is regulated solely
by personal taste and there seems to be
no license for 1t in the unwritten code
that governs these points. With young
children the period for wearing mourn
ing Is greatly shortened, and this Is
entirely permissible.
So distinctly DOGS crepe mark its
wearer that 1t is Understood that the
woman thus attired receives only her
most intimate friends, and the right Of
total exclusion from all visits Is hers.
No public places Of amusement should
be attended while crepe Is worn, and
all conspicuous appearance in public,
unless protected by the veil in cases Of
necessary going out, are to be avoided.
The younger members of the family at
tend no dancing parties, and give no
company invitations. 1t Is no longer
admissible to drape a house or even
a picture in crepe, except for the most
private apartment.

dogs are numerous, Mr.. Week did not
feel sure that the one about which he
received letter was his, and to save a
possible fruitless journey to the South
Side he conceived plan to identify his
spaniel without going to him. He went
to a telephone station at the corner of
Lincoln and Garfield avenues, and Mr..
Miller went with the dog to the Engle-
wood telephone exchange. The dog was
placed upon a table, and when the two
men got the line the receiverwasplaced
to Gyp's ear and Mr.. Week called the
spaniers name. The dog Immediately
made demonstrations showing that he
recognized his masters voice. Mr..
Weeks spaniel has habit of barking

began to bark. That settled 1t. Now

A young man who has been FOSTERING
Muskegon liverymen for two days was run
to earth by the sheriff with rig which
he had had out so long that the owner had
become alarmed. He was found In the
outskirts of the city and taken to police
headquarters. where it was soon found
out who he was. He said that his name
was William Brinner, that his home was
in Chicago and that he had escaped from
the reformatory at Pontiac, ILL.,, early
last April. The crime for which he was
sentenced was grand larceny, the taking
of 5000 in cloaks, etc, from the establish
ment where he was employed. He states
that after a years confinement he was
liberated on parole and provided with a
place to work. He did not like the job
and went back after awhile. He says he
escaped by climbing over the walls. The
sheriff received word from the superin'
tendent at Pontiac stating that he would
send an officer at once after Brinner.

Michael j. Buckley, who occupies the
largest brick residence In Leesville, ten
miles from Detroit, is well-to-do. and re-
Gently purchased safe in which to keep
his private papers. About 2;3O o'clock
Friday morning Buckley and his neigh
bors were awakened by a fusillade of pis-
tol shots. some in the house in which he
lived. With Nicholas Kramer and Pat
rick McCarty he went to investigate and
was confronted by six or seven masked
men, all of whom had revolvers. They de-
manded of Buckley the combination of the
safe, and after some hesitation he told
them. They then drove Buckley and his
companions to an upper room, and while
part of the gang was trying the combina-
ton of the safe the rest walked up and
down the street, firing their revolvers to
keep the residents indoors. BY this time
everybody i'm the village was awake, but
no one of them had the pluck to go out and
make stand against the robbers. A ire
mendous explosion was heard, but still no
one dared to venture from the houses. A
short session of quiet, and then with n
parting fusillade the robbers left the town
in the direction Of Detroit. Buckley
grocery store was completely wrecked.
The burglars had evidently been unable
to work the combination, and had drilled
the safe and blown the door off. securing
sos in cash and valuable papers. They
left their tools behind. Buckley's house
shows the marks of twenty bullets.
