Lenox, Mass.-Almost from time inn
| memorial there have been golden roo
dinners AT Lenox TO usher in the au-
tumn. Some of the prettiest of these
entertainments have taken place this
season at the golf clubhouses, where
woodbine, climbing over the broad
porches and slowly turning from green
10 crimson. adds TO the brilliancy OF
every occasion. Recently a tea was
served on the heels of an afternoon on
the links and attended by many who
never vet have succumbed to the fas-
einations of the game. The large, low
reception room of the clubhouse was
hung with scarlet bittersweet berries
and trailing vines of the wild white Gle
mats. Sheafs of feathery golden rod
filled the wide old-fashioned fireplace.
while. huge vases of blue succory and
deep red cardinal flowers stood IN every
nook and corner. Broad yellow ribbons
topped back the curtains, and the place
was filled with the soft. brilliant hues
Of September. The guests wore flowers

decked themselves with jeweled belt
buckles in the shape of bicycles, or go,f
or tennis or yacht club pins, according
TO their individual bents; for everybody
at Lenox has one fad in athletics, II not
a choice assortment.
There was a great deal OF blue in the
women's dresses and great amount of
cream and brown. Some of the frocks
were corded on the hips. after a style
that promises to be much in vogue this
autumn. These skirts were gathered
into the waist and arranged, in most
cases, with hem trimmings. Other
gowns had guipure laid round the foot

A WARNING NOTE.
II Won't Take the Reader
Long TO Peruse This. and IL
May Prevent u Heap OF
Trouble.

One evening in December, 1896, a respected
resident of Sutton, in the county OF Gale
donia, VT, was reading Montpelier paper.
There was nothing strange or peculiar about
this. for the lady was accustomed every
evening to post herself on the current topics
of the day, but on this particular occasion
her eye struck a paragraph which arrested
her attention and led to train OF circum-
stances which it is the special object OF this
item to prevent occurring in this neighbour
hood or wherever this paper circulates.
Mrs. c. +. Brockway, for that is the name
of the lady referred to, completes the facts
mentioned in the above introduction as fol.

When | had got through speaking he
gathered up his bride rein and started
on. He won't interfere ] said TO my
self. Its all up with the old mans
horses But in a minute more he turned
off the trail. dismounted, threw has
bride rein over part of the corral. and
walked back to where we were as de-
liberate and calm as a man could be.
"'Are those the men. and are those
horses yours?' he asked the old man..
looking over to where the three men
were.
"'They be-before Cod. said the old
man.
with the same GOODNESS and deliber-
alton Us before Patterson walked over
to where the men were. Two of them
were just going to lead the horses to the
wagon to hitch them up; the third one
was fixing some packages under the
seat. All of them were tough-looking
customers, well-heeled with firearms.
"'What are you doing with those
horse? q said Patterson. He spoke quiet
~. but there was something in his tone
that made the two men by the horses
stop and look at him as if they had
been shocked by electricity.
"'What have you got to say about
it?' said one of the men. But, bold as
he tried TO be. his voice fell and trem-
bled before the look in Patterson's eye.
The man by the wagon was fumbling
under the seat.
"'You stole them from that old man!
Take them back 10 him!' said Patter
son, and as he spoke the man by the
wagon pulled shotgun from under
the seat and cooked it. I've no doubt
Patterson was watching him from the
corner of his eve, but he did not turn
his head from the two men he was talk
ing to. Like a flash his pistol came out
and cracked, and the man went down
across the wagon tongue, with the gun
under him, and lay there till they took |
him up TO bury him. Patterson's eye |
never left the two men. who stood pale |
and shaking. afraid to draw their guns
Shifting his pistol TO his left hand. he
reached up TO the wagon box and took |
down the whip. With its heavy leather
braided lash he cut each of the two men
across the face with all his force.
"'Take those horses back to the own
er!' he commanded, And the two men
led The horses back 10 the old mans
wagon. Patterson followed, lashing

around with cream cloth and blue and
gold braid. 1t opens on a blouse of
cream-colored chiffon. There are tight
sleeves starting from under fiat epau-
lcttes, and a brown stray hat set off
with mass of eornflowers is worn.
Another dress that has been seen one
or two bright mornings is of mignon-
ette-colored cheviot, with scrolls of
gold braid disposed in a new fashion on
the waist, the designs increasing in size
and completely from the waist down.
Similar decorations sprawl over the
tight-ftting basqued coat, which turns
back in white MORE reyers over blouse
of white silk. The coat has trim belt
with a gold buckle and tight coat
sleeves, undisguised by epaulettes or
other shoulder pieces. With this out
fit appears a green straw hat with
sprays of goldenrod and towering white
plumes.
No longer is it beneath the athletic
girls dignity to have a special gown for
croquet. A young relative Of Mrs. Pot
ter Palmer wears on the lawn a dress Of
3ne soft silver gray woolcut to show off
fine figure to the best advantage. The
somewhat narrow skirt is admirably
hung. Its only trimming is deep V of
gold braid starting on the hips. The
point is in the middle of the front and
less than a foot above the hem. The
bodice has snug tailor fit and is
adorned with gold braid coming to a
point at the waist line. There is a mar
row pointed vest Of green crepe. The
coat sleeves are uncompromising. With
a white belt and white sailor hat band
ed with gold a slim figure could not
display itself more excellently. 1t is
the great charm of croquet dress that
i is purely personal; it does not need |

ARMY STATIONERY,



Within the memory of a good many
officers of the army, the stationery al.
lowanee for company and regimental
purposes, was entirely inadequate, and
great economy was necessarily prac-
ticed. When a communication came by
mail from some superior source dur
ing this time, the unused part of the
paper, if any, and often the envelope in
which il came, was carefully preserved
for routine Office work in making de-
tails, drafting letters, issuing orders,
etc.
Ink powder was provided instead of
ink, and sand in boxes accompanied it
for blotting purposes. Waters and
boxes to hold them were furnished, and
a few long feathered clarified" ouills
for making pens. were doled out each
quarter. A few sheets of buff-colorcd
paper for the manufacture of envelopes.
and stick of sealing-wax, completed
the issue.
Later, the war department made con-
eessions, regarded as very liberal at
the time, and authorized the issue of 12
steel pens and one penholder in lieu of
a bunch Of quilts, and 100 envelopes in
lieu of a quire of envelope paper.
The present issue is very liberal ard
the economy of former DAYS is no LONGER
necessary.-Military Gazette. Chicago

Catarrh Means Danger,

Because if unchecked it may lead
directly to consumption. Catarrh
is caused by impure blood. This
fact is fully esta blished. There
fore, it is useless to try to cure
catarrh by outward applications
or inhaiants. The true way 20
cure catarrh is to purify the
blood. Hoods Sarsaparilla, the
great blood purifier, cures catarrh
by its power to drive out all i'm
purities from the blood. Thous-
ands of people testify that they
have been perfectly and perma-
nently cured of catarrh by Hood S
Sarsaparilla.

When a man owns blooded
horse he is always careful of its
health. He looks after it's diet
and is particular that the feeding
shall be regular and right. While
he is doing this it is likely as not
that he IS himself suffering from
some disease or disorder. When
the trouble gets SO bad that he
cannot work, he will begin to give
himself the care he gave the horse
at the start. Good pure, rich,
red blood is the best insurance
against disease Of any kind. Al
most all diseases come from i'm
pure or impoverished blood. Keep
the blood pure and strong and
disease can find no foothoid. That
IS the principle upon which DR..

cry works 1t cleanses, purifies
and e2riches the blood, puts and
