Ordering a Bicycle.

The subioined letter, published by
the American Field, is said to be an
order sent by Il Kansas man to
bicycle company:
Deer sirz-I live on mi farm near
Hamilton, Kan, am 81 years old and
Just little sporta. My neffew in
Indiana bot hlsself a new bicycle
and sent me his old one by frate
and i've learned to ride sumo. Its "a
pile of fun, but my bisicle jolts con-
siderable. A Teller come along yes
terdav with a bisicle that had hol-
low injun robber tires stuffed with
wind. He leet me try hissen and
mi, it runs like a kushin! He told
me you sell injun rObber just the
same as hissen. How much will it
be to fix mine up like hissen? Mine
is all iron wheels. Do you punch
the hollow hole threw the injun rob
Der, or will / have to do it myself?
How do you stick the ends together
after you get it done? If Jour injun

Photograph For De Widder.

He evidently was from the rural
districts, and therefore his uneasi-
ness upon what presumably was his
first visit to photographer could
easily be overlooked. At last, when
he was summoned to the operating
room and caught a Whit of the
chemicals from the dark room," he
hesitated on the threshold, half sus-
piciously, says the Chicago Times
Herald.
Come in; come right in, said the
camera man reassuringly. "Do
you want a vignette?"
"N-no, l guess not" replied the
old man. II guess | can stand it
without taking"
Would you like "a photograph of
your head only? Or would you pre-
fer one half length, or full length?"
inquired the photographer.
well, now, I'll tell you how it is,
mister" remarked the old granger,
confidentially. This picture is for
a wilder in Nebraska, who has been
writin' to me considerable about
gettin' spliced. L reckon she'd
rather have picture of my whole
system if it don't make any diffe"-
ence to you"

is sent, and the best mOthered girl
in the world might conceive an I'M
wise passion, but the maternal in
stincts if properly alert would be
aware Of it, and the maternal SYM
pathy and solicitude would avert it,
eliminating in tragedy.
| confess that a good, strong senti-
ment of disgust mingles with my
pity when | read of some distressed
mother of an erring daughter who
declares that she was not aware that
her daughter even had an admirer.
Why do parents so quickly forget
their own youth? 1t is incredi ble
that the sweetest and most roma ntic
part Of life should fade from mem
Dry 50 wholly as it seems to do with
the majority of married people. 1t
is because the passion of youth is a
sort of intoXicatiOn, which, like the
drunkenness of wine, blurs the
memory.
| have observed that it is not in
frequent for men who have sowed II
full crop Of wild oats to show both
amazement and Indignation when a
daughter even indicates propensity
to admire the opposite sex. Yet the
laws Of nature are constantly prov
ing that daughters more freque ntly
than sons resemble their fathers.
One would think that Il man who
had passed through the whirlwinds
of passionate youth might consider
it sacred duty to carefully guide
and tenderly protect his children
through similar period, not by
keeping them under lock and key,
but by giving them well chosen
associates and talking with them
freely and wisely regarding these
associations.

He Only Hurts Himself.

The man who thinks that he is
bigger than his church usually dis
covers that he has taken too tiatter-
ing an estimate Of himself. Some
times he makes this discovery to his
sorrow. If he asserts his liberty by
drawing out, the church goes for
ward as though nothing serious had
happened. We do not understand
the temper of the man who changes
his denominations relations as
easily as he changes his coat. Such
a step should never be taken save
under the compulsion of profound
convictions or radical personal
preferences.-Christian Advocate.

Four-in- hand ties are made of
Madras, ard are preferred to those
of silk for wear with cotton shirt
waists.
Little string ties to match the
shirt waist are very chic. The or
der for shirt waist is generally
accompanied this seasOn-so a max
er tells me-with an order for 1.-TWO
sies to match" White linen collars
are invariably worn when the string
tie "to match is assumed. At
least one jacket of bright red goes
into the summer girls wardrobe.
This she will wear with her pique or
other white gowns when out of town
and the evening air is chilly. The
red jacket has no trimming, and is
cut after the simple short blazer
model. Americans once scorned
red coats. But this was in the days
when we were not as friendly with
the British as we are now. Grim
son is the royal household color.
The Queens jubilee is responsible
for the little red jacket.
In direct contrast to the red Jacket,
but wonderfully sweet, is the new
black cloth jacket, trimmed
with white lace applique. The red
jacket is not as suitable for dress
uniform as the one Of black and
white.
Green leather shoes have reached
us via Paris. A black or plaid silk
stocking must be worn with the low,
green leather shoe. Fancy Oxford
ties, with a patent leather vamp
and finish, are made of MORE velour
in various tints of blue, dull red and
brown.
Street gowns of tiny dark blue and
white and black and white checks
are just as popular as the fashion
fOrecasters promised Us they would
be. "LOuisene,o kind of poplin-
cite, is among the new and popular
materials that come in small checks.
1t is an admirable material for a
dressy street gown. Narrow ribbon
velvet is the most approved trim
ming for it.
Matronly women are wearing
black grosgrain silk for separate
skirts, the bOdices being of fine,
light fabrics, suitable for warm
weather. For state occasions entire
gowns of the beautiful soft material,
with lace trimmings, are much
worn.
White kid, embroidered with
colored beads, is one Of the latest
fancies for the collars, cuffs, revers
and belts of colored canvas frocks.
A particularly fetching gown of blue
canvas cloth is thus embellished.

Repose of Manner.

If there is anything girls should
cultivate it is repose. Simply do
not allow your feet to swing and
your brows to pucker, bur compel
face and feet to mind your will, and
will to be calm and tranquil on the
outside if not beneath the surface.
A result Of this will be that the look
ing quiet, and moving gently, and
holding yourself in control, will
bring about restful condition of
mind. You will feel better and be
less nervous if you put down the
expression OF nerVousness.-EX-

American Mothers.

Extract sfrom a discussion Of the subject
by Ella Wheeler Wilcox.
The subject of dutiful daughters is
as old as the hills, but there are a
good many old subjects which need
repeating tor the benefit Of growing
generatiOns-just rs the old, old
story Of spring is repeated by the
sun to the earth, century after CEN
fury, and just as the waves are for
ever repeating the story of ebb and
flow to the shore.
Charming as the American girl is
acknowledged to be the world over,
she is not infrequentiy most un-
dutiful daughter. | doubt if under
any other flag which floats to the
breeze can such examples of rude
ness be found as under the starred
and striped emblem of American in
dependence.
OF course the fact that woman is
a mother does net necessarily rem
der her lOvable, and we cannot be
blamed for not loving the ENJOYABLE.
Duty has nothing to do with ones
affections, though the affections
have great zeal to do with duty.
Love cannot be coerced. 1t is gov
erned by spiritual, mental and
physical laws, but not by blood ties.
Not lnIrequently we see mothers
who mentally and physically an
tagonize their daughters, but there
As spiritual law, as well as the law
OF good taste, which should compel
a daughter to be respectful and
polite TO her mother, even if she can
not give her love or admiration.
One cannot help the feeling that
American motherhood is a good
deal of "a farce when such conditions
exist rs We're revealed by the death
of Aimee Smith at the Hotel Victor
without a suspicion in the mind of
the mother. What can mothers be
thinking about, | wonder, who live
under the same roof with their
daughters year in and year out and
vet know less of their heart- than
they know of the mental moods of
Hagar in the wilderness or Rachael
mourning for her children because
they We're not.
| should think it would he a moth
er's first pleasure and interest in life
to yet on intimate terms with her
daughter, to obtain her confidence,
to lead her to talk of herself and to
lay bare her heart to one whose
natural duty it should be to show
sympathy and to give counsel.
Where these close relations exist
with mothers and daughters l do
not believe it is possible for girl to
become entangled in an unfortunate
love affair without the mothers
knowledge. Love may go where it

INTERRUPTION IN CHURCH.
An old Woman DenOunces the Sermon
As IA Lie and Fraud.
Chattanooga News.)

As IA Lie and Fraud.
Chattanooga News.)
The members of the First Baptist
church were treated to genuine
sensation during the progress OF the
regular Sunday morning service
yesterday. A woman, undoubtedly
monomaniac, created the sensa-
ton by calling the preacher liar,
his sermon lie from beginning to
end and the whole service farce.
Shortly after the beginning of the
sermon Il plainly dressed old woman,
seated about midway of the church,
was heard by all around her to NUT
ter under her breath, Its lie. "
At frequent intervals during the
sermon she was heard to repeat this
assertion when certain statements
were made by the preacher, but her
mutterings were so low that they
did not interfere with the service to
any con siderable extent, and she
was not disturbed.
AS DR.. Garrett was concluding his
sermon, in explaining the relations
of Baptists toward other denOmina-
tiOns, he took occasion to say that
members OF other denominations
must not be judged and condemned;
that Methodists believed their
doctrines were right as firmly as
Baptists believed in theirs, etc. At
the mention of Methodists, for whom
she seemed to have special dislike,
the old woman arose from her seat,
marched down the aisle, took
stand directly in front of the pulpit
and in "a loud tone of voice de-
nOunced the whole proceedings.
With vehement gestures she de-
clared that Dr.. Garrett was liar,
that his sermon was an immense lie
and that the whole service was
fraud.
Several of the deacons of the
church at once went to the old
woman and after considerable
trouble succeeded in removing her
from the building.

Baby BOnnets.

Baby bonaets are almost too
pretty and dainty to wear. Fancy a
baby's rosebud face peeping out
from frame of frilled white mus
lin caught up here and there by lit
tie punches of pale pink rosebuds
and knots of fOrget-me-n Such a
bonnet is displayed in one of the
shops that devotes large depart
ment to the wear of little folks. An
other delightful bonnet is mix
ture of straw and satin. The
principal part of the bonnet is form
ed by piece of broad white satin
ribbon. On either side of this is a
band of crumpled, coarse, yellow
straw. The front is framed in a frill
of white chiffon, while the fiat piece
in the back is of white satin, encir-
cled by the yellow straw. A frill of
white chiffon to fall over the neck
and strings of white null complete
this very Frenchy little bonnet.
Blue and pink null trimmed with
loops of gauze ribbon are very pretty,
and one beautiful bonnet is of white
silk, covered with point d'esprit and
adorned with white satin loops and
bouquets of pink rosebuds.

The very striking ones in water

every one detachable hoods, button
ing on below the collar, and their
front buttons made of big disks of
smoked pearl. This wrap is wholly
an evolution of ultra modern science,
as is the excellent dust ulster re-
ferTed to. COrnflOwer blue taffeta
silk is the dust listers proper ma
terial, though women, who are, by
the way, wearing them extensively
this summer, have what they call
carriage ulsters, made up in rich
tones of dahlia, golden brown and
florentine red silk or linen. Mohair
is another goods individuals adapt
to this purpose, but mohair and
alpaca are hot, even if they are dust
proof.

Rutflps as trimming. for cotton
frocks particularly. were spoken of
vaguely 'arly in the spring, but AS
summer advances the fact that ruff
fles are favOrtes is undeniable.
Ruffles must he Understandings
disposed to be effective. One ruffle
too many or ruffles too scant or too
full will give a gown the unmistak-
able stamp Of amateur make.
Once the width of the skirt and
half over is the proper fulness for n

This rule of "Once and half" holds
good for bodice ruffl-s as well as

equally flmsy fabrics are used for
ruffles the fulness should be little
more ample, say one and two-tliirds.
