THE SEA NYNPh.

" HE sea nymph is abroad once more in
all her glory, and If anything, is
more enticing than ever Perhaps
1t Is because she has not yet at
tained the usual coat of tan that
she looks more ETHEREAL than usual, or it
may be due to the changes in her costume
The girl who knows the real value of
sea bathing never tricks herself out in
frWnperies or senseless furbeIows, but
makes her get-up as nautical as possible
in sensible way. Corsets are only worn
by those devotees OF the bathing costume
who, like the boy In the Old-time song.
never went near the water
No scientific girl would confine herself
pearances, unless she. is too noticeably
plump, then corset waist is advisable:
but If you can go without, do SO by all
means. The blouse waist is preferred by
all, and is seen on the most elaborate
and expensive costumes.
A pretty model Is shown In hunting rink
mohair, made with Il short. full skirt and
moderately full blouse, high at the throat
and fastened blindly under the left arrD
and over the shoulder. The short sleeves
are single full puff over the shoulder,
ending I'm plain band.
The skirt is made double and filled with
shot all along the hem, to prevent 1t float
ing. There are bloomers to accompany it,
fastened at the knee by a rubber hand.
Stockings of blue and white ribbed wool
and sandals Of white canvas complete
the costume.

SALT AIR HOME.
Worthy Institution Which Needs

An excursion TO the Salt Air Home at

from the sale of tickets doubtless a large
number OF persons will visit this worthy

The Salt Air House. called the Bell

OF the lund. upon which il is built. Is de-
signed TO benefit the little sufferers Of
Washington, whose parents are too poor

them out Of the city during the hot weather
II is the aim OF the home to give TO each
sick little one two weeks OF biissrul rest
and care. together with the benent 20 Il.
derived from the salt air.
Last year the Salt Air Home did a good
work, although il was very poorly equipped.
The building was barely hahitable, being
without paint, without partitions inside,
and without porches. Scarcely any fur
niture had been provided. In addition to
all this. gale In May damaged the build
ing greatly. Now porches and partitions
are being put up. and various societies Of
young women and children have taken it
upon themselves TO furnish Certain ICONS
Mr.. Bell, who has been liberal patron
OF the institution from the first. recently
sent his check for $50 TO fit up ward
for crippled children, in memory of little
Jennie Thompson. who was the first child
to be taken to the home last year.

An eight foot female cougar until a few
days ago had been commit tin. Gepredatl,ns
near Tolt, and her rayages became TN
bearable when she killed Tour calves and
a colt in a siugle week. The great strength
of the fnarauder may ec estimated when IL
is known that she bounded down into a pas
ture. picked up the colt by the throat,
swung 1t like tiger dces his prey icross
her back and then spraDg lightly over
high fence into the thicket When The lion
ess became so bold. Pearl Amcs, the twenty
three year-old son of ]. o. Ames. ferryman
at the Snoqualmie River resolved to put
stop to her Tavages. He gathered up
pack OF nine teen trained deer hounds. put
them on the track of the cougar and fol-
lowed them with his rifle. There was great
music wlIe the dogs struck the trail, and
the woods resouEded with their cries, when
they had once opened up. Away they went.
like racers upon the course. their uoses close
to the ground and their agile bodies speed
ing along in the ecstasy of the chase.
The pack swept out of sight. and in a
few seconds the CRY changed and Ames
knew they had sighted the cougar. Then
there was terrific outcry Of the hounds as
they closed in with their fierce antagonist.
Ames hurried dforwardand AS hecaugbt sight
OF the cougar at bay and savagely striking
her claws at the dogs. the beast sprang into
au adjoining tree. The hunters rifle was
leveled In 10 instant, and second after he
pulled the trigger the gaunt. Ia why body
slid down the tree trunk and back into the
midst Of the waiting pack. Watching bis
opportunity, Ames sent a bullet through
the cougars brain. and she fell dead.
An examination of the carcass showed
that the first shot had entered far along the
back. ranged up the spinal column. and had
come out in the mouth. Some of the dogs
Jared badly. their ears aving been sliced to
shreds. The cougars mate is stli in the
woods. and an effort will he made to run
him to earth.

Clothes baskets used in laundry do

DON'T BLOT YOUR LETTERS.
fth eldest daughter tells me-" said
~ MIR. Glimnerton, ''that II is not
tv good form TO blot letter; and
when ask her whatlI shall do


when get to the bottom of the
page and want to turn to the next, she says
must wait for the Ink to dry, though may,
il wish. save time by addressing the
envelope mean while.
Here, as is usually the case, good
form is In accordance with good sense
A blotted page is not uniform In an,
pearance; more ink is taken from the
lower, the more freshly written part,
than from the more nearly dry writing
above, and so the writing upon the lower
part of the page is paler, and for that
reason, it is less legible. The blotting
may thus be a cause OF Inconvenience to
the recipient OF the letter; his taste may
be offended by want of uniformity. of
harmony. in its appearance, and the fact
that the letter has been blotted, that
the writer has hurried to get through
his task, may wound his pride.
$50 we mustn't blot our letters, that
is, our private letters; but, by common
consent, the use OF blotting paper is still
permissible in business correspondence. -
