BOYS TO HAVE AN OUTING
Friends and Inmates of the Youths
Directory Enjoy a Day Under
the Trees.

Good Father Crowley's little wards of
the Youths Directory are going to have a
grand time to-day. A lovely nook in a
retired corner of Marin County viii surely
find its wonted stiffness strangely broken
by boyish shouts and songs, while the
birds will have their first opportunity of
singing to the accompaniment of violin,
mandolin, harp and guitar.
The outing promises to be most enjoy
able. About 100 boys will form the larger
portion of the crowd of merry makers, but
will be ably seconded by numbers of the
reverend clergy and other friends Among
the guests will be the Rev. D. O. Crowley,
the honored president of the directory ;
Miss Nora Sullivan, Mrs. K. -Lawlor, Mrs.
j. +. Sullivan, the Misses Noone, and a
number of musical people, who intend
giving an impromptu concert under the
trees. Many good things to eat and drin (
have been provided, and number of valu-
able and beautiful prizes will be given the
winners in the various games and races.
The railway and streetcar lines have given
the boys free transportation to and from
the picnic grounds, for which they and
their friends are most grateful. A very
enjoyable day is anticipated.

You feel that the world is growing
brighter around you when your nerves
tingle and blaze with animal magnetism.
Get back what you have lost. Be man
again. Look your friends in the face. and
know that you are not ashamed OF your
condition.
No man need be weak. In nature there
is vitality for every man, and if you will
use DR.. Sanden's Electric Belt you will
get it.
You remember that when 1 got your
belt l was pretty far gone with nervous
debility, which was leading me into the
serious stages best known to those who
suffer from it. To-day, thanks to your
belt, am a we'll man in mind and body.
! can say that it has done more for me
than l thought anything could, and
heartily advise every sufferer from weak
ness or debility to try 1t, says A. K.
Small Waitsburg, Wash. Fe bruary H.
"In mind and bodyT' Imagine the
gratitude OF the man whose memory,
quickness of thought and sharp under
standing has been restored. The world is
brighter to him.
"I am permanently cured OF nervous debility,
after using your Electric Belt for little over
two months | ain married and happy, and
confident, from aly personal knowledge of
many others who have used the Belt, that
when it is properly used n cure is certain"
says S. NJ. Learned, Aberdeen, WASH, May 9Th.
You may be a strong man in muscular
power. You may look healthy, but you
know that all men are not as strong as
they look. You may be weak in vital force.
You may need the tonic building up which
DR.. sanden's Electric Belt gives. 1t will
not fail you.
Dr. Sanden's Belt, sending strong,
even current of electricity through the
whole body, saturates all the weak parts
with its life, develops and expands the
vital energies, and makes manhood COM

THE MUSIC OF NIAGARA,

Cataract.
From the Trinity Record.
Organst Eugene Thayer has published
an analysis of the music of Niagara Falls
He says:
1t had ever been my belief that Niagara
mad not been heard as it should be. and in
this belief 1 turned my steps hitherward
What did l hear? The roar of Niagara?
heard nothing but a perfectly constructed
musical tone clear, definite and unap-
proachable in its majestic perfection, a
complete series of tones, all uniting in one
grand and noble unison as in the organ"
Mr. Thayer then described at some length
the compound nature of given tone, and
illustrates the overtones or partials of the
lowest c Of the 32-foot pipe of the organ
Then he continues:
Il had long had a suspicion that should
near all this at Niagara when her wonder
ful voice should first greet my ears. 1t
was Just as had supposed. How should l
prove all this: My first step was to visit
the beautiful Iris Island otherwise known
as Goat Island. My next step was to stand
on Luna Island above the central fall and
on the west side of the American fall
proper. l went on the extreme eastern side
OF the island in order to get the full force
OF the larger fall, and sat among the ran
Ids. Next 1 went to the Three Sisters

Use of Swansdown.
Swansdown, than which nothing more
sweet and girlish has ever been discover
ed, will trim opera capes for debutantes
this winter. The capes are made of white
brocade, with white or. perhaps lin
ing. Brocade is the correct thing for opera
capes in general If one can afford 1t.
A rose-leaf cape is one of the novelties
which an uptown store exhibits under glass.
The body of the cape is brocade. figured in
pink roses, and 1t is trimmed all around
with up-and-down rows of crinkled silk
rose petals fastening at the neck with
couple of faint pink roses. 1t Is lined with
pink satin.
The capes described are not so long as
opera cloakS were last year, but they are
not intended to protect the whole body, as
such garments usually go in closed car
rIages, which do not admit the cold blasts.
A great deal has been said about the thea
tel hat, and a great many cartoonists have
used the large hats as subjects of ridicue.
To determine what manner CT people they
are who wear these obstructions to the
view in spite of protests, canvass has
been made among those who know, and II
has been found that the majority of the big
hats are worn by women who are only in
the city for a short time: and. having no
other place to display their newly acquired
finery, they wear 1t to the theaters, In the
fond belief that they are dressed like city
folks. Those women, therefore. who do not
wish to be mistaken for country cousins'
should avoid the indiscretion of wearing
picture ha ts' to the play, unless they are
so fortunate as to occupy box, which Is
the only legitimate place in the theater for
such headgear.

been worn so long are not quite in fashion

this season. The correct thing Is q small
hat trimmed with jet or gilt and a bunch
OF aigrettes, or pair Of slim feathers. Gilt
embroidery and spangles are much used on
these hats. One with a four-inch crown
embroidered in gilt had a feather-edged
brim, jet buckle and a couple of small
feathers standing up on the left side This
style of theater headgear has an advantage
In addition to that of being small, in that,
being hat and not a bonnet, 1t can be
worn to matinees, as well as evening per-
formances.
The large velvet hat with high bell crown
has been christened the Marie Antoinette
One of these which is decidedly artistic
has hounce of Renaissance lace falling
on the brim close up to the crown on the
right side, and cluster of feathers grace
fully poised on the left side. A bunch of
yellow roses is perched on the right side
OF the brim on top. and another underneath
the brim or the left side

are easily trimmed and are very fetching.

To make this collarette all the more strik-

cured for herself white kid bonnet. The
Kid had been cut in oval tabs and sprin-

puckered UP into what appeared to be

mirg.
Leather nm Trimming.
White leather trimmings are very fash
ionable for taflor-made dressesr, and the
thrifty damsel has been known to cut
on the tops of pair of soIled evening
gloves to use them on her street dress
This use of leather as trimming has
been carried so far as to make whole jack
cts OF 1t. which suggest the leathern ter-
kins OF fabled hUntsmen.
