 This is great year for great mos quitos. Some of the stories told about the operations of the singing and sting ing birds are impressive, Of course the New Jersey mosaultos are the most prominent and wicked. It is related that Swedish woman living on the bay shore, near Union, left her babe in a hammock for an hour near a field where she was picking raspberries and that when she returned she found the little one dead. It is alleged that the child was stung to death by the mos quitos. which were swarming about the child at the time.
 New Jersey, and it may be that a story which comes from there is founded on New Jersey mosquito which had strayed out of It's own latitude. It ap- pears that Private Flynn, one of the soldiers stationed at Governors Island, was attacked by mosquito, which bit him under the right ear. The bite was an unusually severe one and Flynn placed his fingers on the spot which had been bitten, and found them cov- cred with blood. He took his handker chief and attempted to wipe away the blood, but notwithstanding his efforts to stancl the flow he found it impossi- ble to do so Flynn's comrades had by this time noticed that the man was bleeding to remarkable extent, and called the attention of the first ser- geant, who called the attention of the officer in command to the soldiers con- dition. The officer seeing that the blood was running down Flynn's neck and dyeing his white shirt ordered a corporal to take the man to the post hospital at once. There the necessary appliances were used, and in a short time the bleeding was stopped. Surgeon Bronson said that he had never seen or heard of a similar case, and express Set lAiC opiilAol tIdl Y iS iill ldt plppably lost three-quarters of a pint of blood as a result of the mosquitoes lancelike thrust.
 No unusual mosquito tragedies have yet been reported from Stratford, in this State. but the Hartford mosquitos are doing great work. The Courant says: A stranger coming to town the other day asked what great lumber working establishment was running in our town. The sound of the circum- ambient mosquitos he mistook for cir cular saws and wood planers revolving at high speed in the distance. A man trying to dig potatoes was driven from his task The mosquitos would not let him work. He had lost three pounds weight in less than ten minutes.
 Those Hartford mosquitos must be pretty mean. Our own east shore mos- quitos drive potato diggers out of the fields, but when they have done that they turn to and dig the potatoes They like a joke, but they don't really prey on honest toll. The summer visitors are their meat

FASHION NOTES.

Planned to Turn Other Women's Heads
 Gowns with guimpe yokes are much in favor for afternoon wear, and even swagger women who do not have to economize are not too proud to wear a yoked-top dress in the afternoon and the same dress in the evening with the yoke out and the pretty throat and up- per neck showing. Very low neck gowns are kept for evening wear only, while it is considered the pretty thing to wear to tea a gown cut out prettily at the neck. She whose neck will stand the sunshine sometimes appears in broad daylight with the neck of her dress cut down, and with a great pie ture hat the effect is tremendously be-
