Making Summer Girls.

The light colored prints, the challies
and all the youthful looking wash goods
are eagerly sought after these spring
days by anxious mammas who wish
their daughters to have dainty summer
wardrobes A red gingham with dot
Of white makes fascinating pretty
frock, worn with a white CAMP and
trimmed with cape pieces over the puff
sleeves and around the low cut neck
edged with narrow openwork white en-
broidery Whether it is best to have the
frocks made to wear with camps or to
have them cut high in the neck is al
ways vexed question
Even the warranted fast color mate
rials will not stand the hard rubbing
on the washboard, and even boiling,
that is often necessary to remove the
stains on the sleeves. Hence camps are
thought better, for they can be washed
harder" while the frock itself will
not require such hard treatment to be
clean again, and yet, on the other side
of the question, is the fact that where
washing has to be managed economical
ly the frock in all one piece is less cx-
pensive. Fortunately this summer fash
ion says both may be worn, SO each
mother can use her own judgment.

Shot Out Their Quarrel.

Madison, Fla, Aug. 26.-George
Page and Will Morgan. young men
living near here, last night fought a
duel, considered to be one of the most
remarkable on record. They were riv-
ais for the affections of pretty young
lady. They both attended dance at
which the young lady was present.
Her conduct drove them to desperation.
Finally Page invited Morgan to ac-
company him for walk. Morgan
consented, and as soon as they were
outside Page proposed that as each was
armed, they take each other by the left
hand and shoot out the quarrel, the
survivor to take the girl : Morgan
agreed, and then with left hands
clasped they drew pistols and began
firing. Each man fired five shots.
When friends arrived Morgan was
found dead and Page was dying.

The Penalty of Publicity.

The true woman, the true man, with
soul sensitive to the delicate influence
of that higher soul within the soul,
shrinks from publicity. The personality
is more sacred than the person Both
would be shielded from the public gaze.
When woman chooses public career,
in whatsoever capacity, she is too often
compelled to lay bare her very soul to
the idle, curious eyes of a jeering mob.
to cast her finest sensibilities to the
earth for the rabble to trample. 1t may
be her duty to make this sacrifice. but
it is none the less sacrifice, and
though there is compensation in add
ed strength there is loss for which no
amount of strength can make amends.
Woman must always pay penalty
for publicity. Man has paid the penal
ty so often and for SO long a time that
society has ceased to regard it penalty,
and only when we find one Of those
rare, sweet souls, born out of time, that
seems like a violet transplanted into
snow, do we realize what man has lost
But we seldom fail to see the effects Of
the penalty in the life Of any public
woman.

Portland, Me-, Aug. 24.-Charles
L. Lamson performed feat here yes
a large airship or kite capable of carry.
ing asman can be flcated successfully
and steadily. He raised his ship with
a dummy man on 600 feet. The retain.
ing rope broke when the ship was at
hat altitude. Had it not been for
this break Mr.. Lamson would have
sent up a man to navigate his ship.
AS it was, W. A. Eddy, an authority
on aerial experiments, declared that
Lamson's achievement was the great
est step toward solving the problem of
aerial navigation of the age. Two rec.
ords, at all events, Lamson made. He
few the largest kite or airship ever
Hoated; he carried by means of this
kite the heaviest weight to the greatest
altitude On record.
The kite when in the air resembles
two large boxes parallel to each other
md attached in the middle. 1t took
fifteen men to carry the ship into the
field from which it was to be sent up.
The retaining cord was large pral'eo
window cord, tested to pull 800
pounds. This was made fast to huge
eel, and four men attended to it.
About 400 feet of the rope was run
out along the ground and at signal
from Lamson the ship was released. 1t

was brought upon it by the ship. The
ship floated out half mile and de-

went up Had man been in the car
he would not have been harmed in the
slightest.

The Malay Apple.

The ohia, or Malay apple, is a ccm-
mon timber tree of the Hawaiian Is
lands, though not peculiar to that local
ity. On the island of Maui is mann
moth orchard of wild ohias, extending
from the sea to the mountains and
measuring 20 miles in length by from
5 to 10 miles in width. The trees are
from 40 to so feet in height, some Of
the largest yielding nearly 80 pounds of
fruit, the total crop being said to be
sufficient to fill fleet of 100 steamers
The beautiful crimson or white apples
however, are unfit for transportation,
as they last but a short time in good
condition. n.--Popular Science Monthly.
