Her Wedding Bonnnat.

Although bouquets of natural" flow CTS. arranged with premeditated care lessness on their own graceful stalks, and with at most a ribbon bow as orna- ment, have in a great measure supplant- ed the once favorite stiff bououet of wired flowers. the conventional stiff shape, with ornamental paper rim, con- tinues to be the proper thing for we'd ding bouquet. However. the foundation is almost concealed by profuson of rib- bon and lace trimmings The shape now in vogue is mostly flat. and as such af- lords firm support to the flowers, which, despite wires, are arranged as naturally as possible.

SEVEN LAKE SAILORS DROWNED.

bell In lake Superior.
DULUTH, MINI, Dec. fo.-By the sink
ing Of the tug Pearl B. Campbell of HUI
ron Isle, in Lake Superior, on Saturday
last seven men, all of whom but one lived
In this city, were drowned. The names of
the dead are: Captain William McGilvy,
master; George McCort, chief engineer
Captain John Lloyd, mate; Fred England,
second engineer; Peter McCallin, cook;
two firemen, names unknown.
The news Of the disaster came IN a tele-
gram from the captain Of the tug Castle
ut L'Anse, Mich, saying that the Camp
bell had been lost with all hands and that
particulars had been sent by letter. The
captain Of the steamer which came In last
evening from Marquette, Mich, says that
on Saturday terrible gale was blowing
over the lake in the vicinity Of Huron Isle,
and it is probable that the Campbell, which
was one Of the staunchest. tugs on the
lakes was caught In the hurricane.
Huron Isle is about forty miles from
Marquette. The tugs Campbell and Gas.
tie had been at work there trying to raise
two sunkep vessels. The tugs parted COM
pany on last Friday, both then being IN
good condition. The captain Of the Camp
bell was then warned not to try TO face
the wind that was rising, but he remarked
that his tug could weather anything but
an earthquake. This was the last seen Of
the vessel and its crew.

CONSUMPTION, which is al
most unfortunate.
Its best use is before you

you begin to get thin. weak.

care, and the best way to
take care is to supply the

the kings army, numbering about 10000
men, surprised and surrounded five com
panies of italian troops under Major Tos-
