charmingly dressed with a big mixed
bow of apricot colored silk and black
Her Dainty Neckwear.


Women will be wise If, before they
begin to purchase a kilt-plaited white
tulle butterfly bow for the neck, they
consult their looking glasses and their
complexion, for not one woman in a
hundred can stand this mass of white
under her chin. Nor are the chiffon
and lisse ties, with patterns worked
all over them in narrow ribbons, much
better, from the same standpoint
Elongated cream-colored lace bows
are more becoming and more graceful,
and very pretty are the soft silk, print
ed or painted with tiny forets, and the
broad ribbon bows with chine bou-
quets which are quite charming If they
are but well made. The ends are
mostly long and fringed They need
putting on, for jeweled pins deftly in
troduced add greatly to their grace and
their individual adaptability, which is
the most essential part. The checked
transparent gauze ribbons are great
ly used for such purposes. One of the
new models is made of crosscut
scarf of chiffon, with tiny roses i'm
printed on it in their natural roseate
hue. This encircles the neck, and is
formed into a great chou on the left
hand side, the scarf continued thence
to the waist, where it terminates in
two rosettes with ends.

Unwilling Gypsy King.

The gypsies roam from the Atlantic
to the Pacific, but they have a real kin q
and his name is Gus Stanley. He has
been their ruler for a great many years
but now he wants to let some one else
be king. All of the gypsies in the
United States, though, like him, and
think him as good a ruler as thew
could get, and they will not let him
give 1t up. Every year they come
from everywhere and meet all in one
place, but this year a great manv of
them stayed away SO they would not
have to vote for new king. and thew
say that they will stay away until he
says he will not ask to quit any more.
SO he must be king yet awhile, whether
he wishes to or not.

The gospel of periodical rest is not
preached to women half forcibly
enough. One of the most narrowing
remarks made at the Denver meeting
of club women last year was by an en-
thusiast, who urged that women should
not slip back in the summer from the
effort they had made during the win
ter. 1t was evident the speaker would
take away from this busy modern
woman the scant respite she permits
herself during part of the summer
At recent club meeting in suburban
town member presented the Value
of System in Work." and gave a model
day in which every minute from break
fast to bedtime was filed with active
effort. When she had finished a wom-

A King at Thirteen.

One of the youngest rulers of the
world is Sumshere Jung, the young
king of Nepaul, which lies between
Thibet and India, and which contains
the highest mountain of the Himala-
vas. This little King, who is only Ii
years old, has some hundred thousand
warriors under his command, and as
they are wonderfully brave fighters,
young Sumshere Jung has the respect
Of all the neighboring tribes and gov
ernments, AID even the English gov
eminent is very glad, indeed, to keep
On friendly terms with this little mon
arch. These people of Nepaul are a
very queer mixture of races, with the
Ghoorkas as the ruling tribe. The
only men that are respected in this
strange land are warriors, SO every
boy is brought up with the one idea
that fighting is the only thing worth
living for. If anyone does
anything to displease this little king
he can order his head to be cut off at
once and it will be Immediately done.
How would you like to have a boy for
a playmate who could have your head
cut OFF whenever you did anything he
did not like? 1t is pretty safe to say
that he is never cit" in any game I'M
ess he wants to be.

The Bridal Trouaaeau.

The trousseau of today differs from
that of the last generation in that it
contains only what the bride-elect is
going to need the first season following
her marriage. Clothes change in style
| nowadays so rapidly, not only in hats,
wraps and gowns, but in the shapes of
shoes and petticoatS and corsets, that
the wise woman does not provide any
more of anything than she has prac-
tically immediate use for. Then again
the trousseau should be designed for
the use to which it is to be put. The
bride who is going to travel for a year
needs quite different outfit from that
required by one who is going at once
to settle down to live in a city. The
bride who is going to live in mining
camp needs a different trousseau from
that required by the bride who is to
live in university town. The farm
er'S bride who is going to do her own
housework in a sparsely settled dis
trict needs a number of wash dresses
in which she can bake and boil and
yet look neat and attractive, while the
bride of the city lawyer who is going
to live in a hotel most needs dresses

dine in public dining rooms in the
face and eyes" of well-dressed peo-
pie, etc. If the bride is going to live
at fashionable hotel she must have
full dress" toilettes for dinners and
dances and evening functions of all de-
scriptions; but if she is going to live
on ranch and take care of her house,
she doesn't need ball gowns, and she
does need cotton dresses by the half
dozen, at least. The former needs golf
shoes and satin slippers, the latter
wants comfortable homework and
farm shoes. One needs bathing dresses
and the other sun-bonnets. Both need

out that one important occupation OF
the day had been omitted. This was
"dawdltng," and the speaker said that
while indorsing the value of system
she must put in an eloquent plea for
the incorporation in the working day
of every woman of at least a half
hours absolute rest-not tie rest OF
fresh occupation, but the rest of COM
plete and entire relaxation, mental
and physical. The nervous, active, ov-
er-zealous American woman of today
scarcely knows how to rest. eff you
have found a day to be idle,'' says
some one, "be idle for day." This is
a motto that many women will do Wen
to fasten up on their dressing tables.

A Pretty Picture.

It is the exceptional woman who
knows how to make up properly for a
picture. She will put on her "best
Dress" arrange her hair and then HE
herself to the photographer. The
proofs are seldom up to her expecta-
lions. She sees a prematurely-aged
woman, with sparse locks and strain
ed expression in the place of the fairly
good-looking matron she believed her
self to be. ALL this is disheartening. In
fact, she is seldom as bad looking as
the pictures make her appear. She has
perhaps a bad habit of wearing her
hair plastered down on the sides. If
she wants to look pretty she must give
her hair especial attention. Puff it
loosely at the sides, and coil in a care
possible, have the picture taken in
evening dress. There Is nothing more
becoming to woman. Soft, wavy
lines are desirable in a picture Plain
ness will never give a pretty effect
The domestic woman should remember
this, and not be afraid of attempting
graceful lines. A bust is more salts
factory than a full or half length, es-
pecially if one is not sure Of her abf1-
ity to assume a graceful pose. Let
the matron approach the camera with
the same confidence as her daughter;
let her be as anxious for pretty re-
suits; let her pose before the mirror
until she decides on her attitude, then
et her defy the photographer with the
set ideas and she will take a picture
which will surprise herself and her
amily. f@{

investigations proved more than was
claimed, as not a single instance was
found where the patient was not
either entirely cured or greatly bene-
flied. 1t is not claimed that magne-
tism will cure every disease, but it is
guaranteed that where a cure is made
or benefit derived, that it will be
more lasting and permanent than by
any other method.
1t is not claimed that he performs
miracles, or possesses any supernat-
ural power whatever, but those who
witness his work in Akron tonight
and tomorrow night will consider his
cures almost bordering on the
miraculous.

afflicted should go early to avoid the

HIS HEALING HANDS.
Will Cure the Sick of Akron With
out Money and Without Price.
The Boy Phenomenon to Demon.
Strate His HOwerS at the Grand
Opera House Wednesday
and Thursday Nights.

The Phenomenal Boy, the young
magnetist who is to visit Akron this
week, is no ordinary person, if the
press of the country are to be be-
lieved.
Wherever he has appearee the pa
pers have been loud in their express
sion of eulogy concerning the mar
velously startling cures he is credited
with performing before the largest
audiences. In Philadelphia, where
he remained nine months, giving
numerous exhibitions at the Acad-
emy of Music, the largest theater in
the city, holding 5000 people, it was
always crowded to its utmost.
The Item of that city says of him:
He is the greatest of all magnetic
healers, before whose touch disease
vanishes like magic. The many phe-
nomenal cures he has made in this
city have surprised the medical stu
dents and bewildered the faculty of
our colleges for satisfactory eXpla-
nation of the young mans power"
In st. Louis for six months his eX-
hibitions-were given at the great eX-
position building, which has a seat
ing capacity Of 1000 people, thous-
ands being turned away nightly.
The Globe Democrat after investi-
eating so cases that had been cured
in public, says of him: 1.-The Boy
Phenomenon is a phenomenon in
fact, as well as in name. He is one
of the wonders of this century. The
cures he has performed before thous-
ands of people in st. Louis have
been witnessed by many of our most
learned medical men and as most of
the subjects were well known citi-
zens, many of whom hau been pro-
nOunced incurable by the medical
hospitals, of course the method
which accomplished such cures has
led to much discussion. We do not
attempt to solve the problem, or even
speculate as to how, or what power
produced the transformations. We
only give the facts as they occurred
and that they are facts can not be
denied. After all what difference
does it make to the sick how they
are cured. results are what they
want, relief from their affection, and
whetherb by pills or potions, electricity
OF magnetism, it makes no differ
ence."
The daily papers of Canton devoted
many columns to an elucidation of
the subject of Vital Magnetism, and
the Massillon press detailed special
reporters to visit the homes of those
treated upon the stage, so as to en-
Tighten the public as to the perma-
nency of the cures performed. The

How to Find Bicycle Gear.

Editor DEMOCRAT:
Please let us know in Wednesdays
issue of DEMOCRAT how to find gear
of bicycle. BY giving us the rule
you will greatly oblige.
BICYCLE READERS OF DEMOCRAT.
To find the gear of any chain
wheel, divide the diameter of the
rear wheel by the number of teeth
in the rear sprocket and multiply by
the number of teeth in the front
sprocket. Thus if the diameter of
the rear wheel is %. inches; if there
are teeth in the rear sprOcket and
20 teeth in the front sprocket the re-
suit will be: 2S-: -:-7X20=S0 gear.

BICYCLE
Which Can be Ridden on
the Water.
First Test Made at Summit Lake
Proved a Success.

The first test of a water bicycle in
vented by ]. L. Cooper and Samuel
Eby, was made at Summit lake Tues
day afternoon. 1t proved to be a
successful one.
The peculiar craft was sent across
the lake several times, making the
trip in from seven to nine minutes
each time. It was propelled by one
man.
1t is a remarkable looking affair.
On both sides are long metal cylin-
ders 10 inches in diameter and about
10 feet long. These support light
frame work. Midway between the
two cylinders is the seat for the rider.
1t is so arranged that he works two
pedals which drive small propeller
at the rear of the bicycle.
In the test Tuesday it was found
that the craft could be worked with
little effort. It is proposed to increae
the size of the screw. BY doing this
speed will be made greater.
