have no end of charming styles to
choose from.
One shop here in Paris has made a
specially of creating becoming gowns
for young misses. especially summer
gowns. And took great deal OF in
tereSt in looking at the display.
BATISTE POPULAR.
Ecru batiste will be a very popular
material for seaside gowns, as it poss-
esses the rare virtue of not fading, even
in strong sunlight. Then, with change
of ribbon belt and collars. the gown can
be reiuvenated at any time
A very dressy gown for young girl
was made of figured green taffeta silk
The skirt was full godet, and on each
side of the middle gore were points of
batiste over pale yellow silk. The bod
ice had a pointed yoke of batiste over
the yellow silk. and the figured silk
was fulled in at he shoulder and under
arm seam and brought together at the
front in a butterfly frill.
Over the elbow sleeve of batiste, lined
with the yellow silk was draped anoth
err full sleeve of the figured taffeta. The
collar and girdle of the gown were Of
hunters green velvet.
Another gown I saw that was made
of plaid Scotch bingham is particularly
adapted to slender. undeveloped figures.
The material which was big plaid,
with the prevailing colors, fawn and
brown, was cut on the bias. There was
a yoke of pierced batiste over coral silk.
and draped around it was a flchu of
plain batiste with a wide ruffle of the
same that fastened at one side.
The waist was without tuCks and the
fullness was drawn down into a wide
crush belt of maroon velvet. The
sleeves were full bishop sleeves with
a narrow cuff of pierced batiste over the
coral silk. All the fullness of the skirt
was confined at the hips in punches OF
six tucks that extended down about four
inches from the belt.
LAWN GOWNS.
A dainty dress for lawn party was
fashioned OF organdie with a design ir
apricot on pale green background. to
be worn over auricot silk slip. The
bodice was made with wide box plait
overlapping a high girdle of liberty
silk in a soft shade of apricot. From
the shoulder seams came straps of The
silk. which ended in rosettes over bows
Of pale green mouSseline de sole. The
skirt was hung so that there was a
wide box plat at the front and the rest
OF the fullness was gathered very full
over the hips and at the back.
What they termed a piazza gown was
made of cream Swiss with blue polka
dot. The yoke was of embroidered
mousSeline de sole and the big revers
that turned from it were of plain Swiss,
edged with ruffles Of the mousseline de
sole. Where the full blouS waist open
Cd at the side there was a big bow OF
sapphire velvet and a crush girdle Of
the same.
Over the two seams of the front gore
were rufles Of the mousseline de sole,
reaching a trife above the knees. with
a bow Of sapphire velvet as a finish.
BOATING DRESSES.

that was very chic. The skirt and vest
Of the suit were of red and white plaid

ty.'

eh! If these easy brothers don't muz-
sOiling sacred robes is likely to happen
to them
Did you ever see such puerile rot?
When you speak of trailing the judicial
ernine in the mire, do you mean litter
ally that judges wear ermine?-no, it is
. figure of speach. This fellow never
has nor never will become sacred
robe" nor prove worthy to wash the
three Canton preachers feet. He not
only needs new description, but if
he is not "muzzled" by his friends the
stuff he feeds upon will not only sprout
ears upon his head and give him a So
norous voice. but play into the hands
of their enemies. We want him to
sing on-this is just simply little well
meant and disinterested advise for
charity's sake.
"A painter oncelwas employed to
paint the picture OF a lion on the sign
of an inn keeper, but when mine host
was about to hang it up, it suddenly
occurred to him that the picture looked
as mnch like a dog as lion, and SO he
wrote under it In big letters: This is
o lion.''
Our friend of the Canton Times feels
that his position on the liquor question
may cause some one to suspect him of
not being rs good q man as he should
be, and go, like the inn-keeper, he
writes certificate of what he is in

MOST PERFECT MADE.
CLEVER LOUISIANA MICE.

EASILY Outsyd4ted Both a Man ana
.t His I:i:: Tom Cat.
B 9. Willis, diving in the country be-
low here, says that for some time past
he has been greatly annoyed by rats
In his smoke house. About q month
ago he purchased a big wire and tin
rat trap, and has since succeeded in
catching some twenty-five Of the big
rodents. This seemed to settle mat
tiers so far as rats were concerned,
but no sooner were they disposed of
than the mice became equally as OBJ
.noxious. the rats having left them a
fair field. . & s5 ....5
4 As he had no mouse trap on the
place, Willis borrowed a big cat from
one Of his neighbours, and last night
put Tom in the smoke house to make
q raid on the mice. This morning he
visited the scene of battle, hoping to
find the cat master Of the situation,
with the mice nowhere in evidence.
Instead he found the cat sitting on his
launches the picture Of misery, hav-
Ing been outwitted by the designs Of
the overastute mice.
It seems that Willis had left the big
rat trap sitting behind barrel in the
smoke house, and into this the mice
had betaken themselves as soon as
they found they were being closely
chased by poor Tom, who had not
been able to make an entrance into
the barricade Of tin and wire. When
Willis found the trap there were elev-
en- scared little mice safely housed
therein. Thinking, Of course, that he
had them captured he fastened Tom
In the smoke house again, and carried
the trap outside, setting it down by
the door while he went for kettle Of
boiling water to demolish the catch at
one fell swoop.
But those mice had not lived in vain.
Finding themselves safely outside and
beyond the reach Of the cats paws,
they lost no time in improving their
opportunity for escape afforded by
Willis absence, and made their exit
from the big rat trap as easily as they
had entered it, and scampered off into
safe hiding places before another and
swifter danger overlook them. Alex

tenderness Of veal. The hump is the
choicest portion. Eggs that formerly
were gathered near the localities
where they were sold now come from
distant points. Four million daily are
received int London from foreign coun-
tries. Most Of them come from Rus

/ No More Wedding Rings.

Is Wedding rings are doomed and a
fashion 1000 years old is doomed with
them. The coming woman will have
nothing to do with symbols and in
tends to be married in as short order
as possible, without any Of the folderol
that her very feminine predecessors de-
lighted in. Moreover, there is signifi-
canoe In the marriage ring that does
not please the modern woman. When
the Roman put tiny iron band about
his new wife's finger it was under
stood to be the outward and visible
sign Of his absolute authority. She was
bound to him by an indissoluble band,
and was his to own and command.
Therefore she wore her ring upon her
left or inferior hand, while her hus-
band arrogantly placed his upon the
right or superior hand; SO what justi-
fcation could the modern woman have
for accepting the sign Of an authority
which she would refuse to recognize?
She will have nothing to do with gift
fraught with so obsolete a Significance
as the wedding ring.
For the sake Of consistency, it is only
proper that the engagement ring
should go at the same time, since, if a
woman is not bound after marriage,
she surely is not before. Princess May
has shown her approval Of the aboli-
ton Of this custom by substituting an
engagement bracelet for the conven-
tional ring of betrothal. Among those
who regard royal precedent as authors

Entering the Navy.

. a.
When a boy wishes to become a
sailor in the navy he applies to one
Of the three receiving ships. They
are the Vermont at the New York
navy yard, the Wabash at the Boston
yard, and the Richmond at the League
Island navy yard in Philadelphia,
boys must be between fourteen and
sixteen years ago, sound in health,
and be able to read and write to some
extent. No distinction il made in race,
and it is a singular fact that the color
ed boys who apply are almost invari-
ably able to read and write better
than the white boys. On board the
Vermont the only reading test applied
is contained on card, which is as
follows:
BE it enacted by the Senate and
House Of Representative Of the Uni
ted States in Congress assembled, that
fraudulent enlistment and the receipt
Of any pay or allowance Hereunder
is hereby declared an offence against
naval discipline, and made punishable

that if you do not tell the truth about
your age, parents, or guardian, or if
you are a deserter from the naval or
military service, you may be tried by
q court martial, be put in prison, or
punished in some way
The last paragraph of this is what
boys are usually required to read. The.
officers are not very strict about the
hard words, and so almost any boy
can pass the test. After being admit
ted, Uncle Sam gives each boy an out
fit His parents or guardian must
sign a paper giving him to the govern
ment until he is twenty years Of
age. He becomes known ut once as
Ia third-grade apprentice, and in q few
days he is sent to a training school at
Newport, where he is taught rudi-s
mentary things about sailors life
and work. After remaining at New
port for six months he is transferred
TO one of two training ships. These
are the Essex and the Alliance. He
remains on one OF these for six months
and takes cruise. On the VOYAGE
he learns how to handle the sails
how to- sew and splice, and how to
handle guns. Innumerable other
things about "a sailors life lie also;
