the wearer, while it will not take away
at all from the smartness of her ap-
pearance. On the contrary, it will add
to it very considerably, as scarf OF
this kind is sure to be one Of the lead
ing features of the summer fashions.
For evening dress, too, these fchus
will be very much worn, made in fine
net Or in silk muslin, edged with lace,
or even carried out entirely with lace,
with lace frills, and very long sash
ends, frilled with lace. For young
people with good figures these fichus
will be crossed in front, taken under
the arms, and then tied at the back in
a big bow, with sash ends reaching
to the hem of the skirt. For other
figures, no longer so young or so slim
as they were, the fchus will be draped
lightly round the shoulders, and then
drawn down to a point a little below
the line of the waist in front. Here
they whip robably be secured with dia
mond slides, and from that point they
will hang quite loosely over the front
of the skirt, the long lines thus arrived
at giving considerable length and ele-
gance to the figure.

in the latter case chiefly by Ameri-
cans. In England on every anniver-
sary of Prince Albert's death the
queen picusly repairs to Frogmore to
perform a similar honor at the tomb of
her late husband. The memory of
Waterloo is preserved in England
through the curious custom of the
duke of Wellington's successor travel
ing to Windsor to present three French
flags to her majesty. And in a SINH
lar spirit and as a sort of Tory rite
the grave of Lord Beaconsfield and
the various monuments erected to his
memory are decorated with the prim-
rose OH each April "a. But neither in
France or in England has there been
any encOura cement given to this
wholesome practice in any national
sense to the soldiers who fell at Wa
terloo or even in the charge Of the
light brigade at Balaclava. Those
nations seem to exhaust themselves in
the cases of illustrious persons and
take every possible means of forget
ting their common dead. There is also
some ground for believing that it is
since the American idea has taken
hold that the plan Of perpetuating
great deeds even in the case of such a
man as Beanconsfeld has been OBJ
served; for the tombs of such heroes
as Marlborough, Collingswood and
Drake are utterly neglected in West
minister abbey. Sir John Moore, too,
who fell at Corunna is also left to
sleep on in the grave where Britons
have laid him. and the chances are
that were there not a political motive
behind the anniversary of primrose
day, and had the tory party not been
Quickened by the patriotic action of
resident Americans, there would be no
BeacOnsfeld day, just as there is no
day for Marlborough or Nelson.
The intensity Of religious or patrio-
tic feeling has a considerable effect
upon these anniversaries. The lead
ers of the commune on May &c have
their graves decorated with punches
of violets or immortelles; and in

THE GRACEFUL FICHU.
The Antoinette Shoulder Scarf Glori-
fies the Whole Gown.

The revival Of the lace Marie An
toinette fchu or silk gauze shoulder
scarf would be quite in harmony with
the craze of fashion in favor of Incroy-
able hats and Directoire bonnets, and
the mode is one which admits of many
charming varieties. 1t is adaptable,
too, to various figures and almost all
occasions. For morning dress, even
with an ordinary summer zephyr Or
cambria, a fchu in fine batiste, N
white muslin, Or even in white point
d'esprit net, would not be out Of place
by any means, and would give an air
OF daintiness to the most severely SIM
pie gown. For afternoon wear, in
fine black lace they will come as a
boon and blessing to the middle-aged
matrons, who find coats impossible,
and capes too hot and heavy, and who
at the same time strongly object to
venturing out into the street without
some sort of a light wrap round their
shoulders.
In this way the Marie Antoinette
ichu will be Of great advantage, as 1t
will add immensely to the comfort OF

CAME OF THE INDIAN KINGS.

Mrs. Stanton, Of Chiffon, Wis, a
full-blOoded Indian woman 80 years of
age, is as proud of her birth and
lineage as any woman in America.
She is a direct descendant Of King
Philip. If the claim of the Narragan-
sett Indians of Rhode Island against
the United States government is al
lowed, Mrs. Stanton's share of the
award will be about 100000. 1t could
hardly fall into better hands, as Mrs
Stanton's long life has been spent in
good deeds. Mrs. Stanton was educat-
ed at an Indian school in this state,
and with her husband emigrated to
Wisconsin in the early SOS. She per-
sonally secured the county seat for
Chiffon, which was then known as
StantOnville, and gave the town all
the land on which the public buildings
and churches stand. Mrs. Stanton
years ago adopted as son and
educated Steve Nichols, who became
Gen. Sherman's favorite Indian scout.

ing cold when people find it hard to
Oe out of doors; much more so to visit
those lonely and darkened streets of
metropolis which are the very opposite
in respect of site and cheerful sur
rOundings to American cemeteries, and
which one can afford to visit without
carrying around with him an awful
foreboding Of the hereafter.
The countries outside of the United
States, however, where the American
ideas of decoration day have made
most progress are naturally Mexico
end Canada. Since Diaz has prac-
tically become the dictator of Mexico,
May "a is as regularly celebrated in
the City of Mexico as is May 80 in Chi
Cago or New York. The Mexican cele-
3-atiOn is even more elaborate in
GNme respects than ours and invariably
those American soldiers who fell in
1917 are always included in the cere-
monies. The Mexicans extend the
celebration usually over three days
and besides costly floral tributes, a
government military band accom-
panies the processionists, which pours
forth strains of delicious music. With
the dawn of decoration day a steady
stream of people pour into the GENE
teries from daylight to dusk. Flowers
are so marvellOusly cheap the graves
present the appearance of being one
vast field bed of variegated colors and
as with US the day is a national holi-
day and a general ight-heartedness
pervades all the people, and which in
more somber Europe would be re-
garded as sadly in keeping with the
sOlemnities of the occasion. Canada
until within the last few years rigor-
Ously followed the example of Eng
land; but lately decoration day is OBJ
served there much as it is here, though
the Canadians are some what less pro-
nounced than the Mexicans in follow
ing the American precedent, and still
hardly appreciate the fact that the
happy thought of annually decorating
the graves of fallen soldiers is purely
Of American origin.

crowds of processionists who usually
avail themselves of the occasion to

Usually decorations abroad take the
form of creating new orders, not to
perpetuate the memory of the dead

caustic remark of Lord Palmerston-
What | like about the garter is that

TO get it,
Decoration day in Europe is making
Roadway, principally through the in
fluence of the large number of wealthy
Americans who now reside in most
European cities. Though many OF
these have ceased to be Americans in
spirit, and have in many cases sue
cumbed to their environments. the
members of the respective colonies
celebrate such battles as those Of
Gettysburg and Of Appomottax by ban
quets and other social festivities and
thus aid in creating an atmosphere
favorable to the great American holi-
day. Were there no colony of veal
thy Americans in Paris for example,
the grave of Lafayette would have
been forgotten long since by his own
countrymen. The representatives of
both nations meet in common rever-
ence over the grave of Lafayette, and
in the evening usually celebrate by a
dinner where tOaStS are given and
responded to, and where eloquence
and wit find apt delverance. In the
same way in England the American
decoration day is crowding out of
remembrance that of November 2,
which has from time immemorial been
fixed by the church as the day de-
voted to- the departed dead. 1t is a

UNEASY WEARERS OF CROWNS.

The king of Spain is guarded during

of men, who, according to an old GUS
tom, must be natives of the town Of
Espinosa, and have served with honor

gates with much ceremony at mid
night and unlock them at seven o'clock
in the morning; during the whole of
the night they keep Vigilant watch in
and about the royal residence. No
one in his household knows in which
room the sultan intends to sleep at
night. He has more than score Of
bedrooms, separated from the rest Of

THE muff1ed drums sad roll has beat
The soldiers last tattoo;
No more on life's parade shall meet
That brave and fallen few
On flames eternal camping ground
Their silent tents are spread
But stony guards with solemn sound

-O'Hara
Previous to our establishment of a
national holiday by the Grand Army
of the Republic the idea of thus pay
ing respect to the common soldier
had never occurred to any of the phil
osophers, priests, or preceptors of the
ancient world. No other nation but
ours and our sister republic of Mexico
streWs the graves of it's departed SOL
diers with sweet flowers and thus en-
balms the principles for which they
gave their lives. The Catholic church
as from early times inculcated upon
It's inherents the necessity of praying
for the souls Of departed dead, but this
was purely religious rite and was
national in no sense.
In France, Austria, Italy and other
Catholic countries services are still
held in churches, bon fires are kindled
on hills to be seen and understood by
the people of the surrounding valleys:
and sometimes a crier goes around
shouting in sepulchral tones 1.-The
Sieur Such-A-One is coming; We who
live, pray for his peace remembering"
The party thus recalled will upon ex-
animation be found some prince or
church celebrity, or some rich bene-
factor, who left behind in wills or be-
quests some tangible reason why his
name should be spoken of amongst
living men, and which the order so
benefited has only earned it's money
by faithfully observing.
Thus in France there is usually a
liberal display of flowers around the
Column Vendome and the Hotel des
1nvalides in honor of Napoleon, at the
Picpus cemetery in honor of Lafayette,

OUR COUNTRY'S HEROES.

Long years ago an army vast
Went forth to do and die.
Their deeds are graved on historys
page,
While low their bodies lie.
Their country asked them for their
lives.
They did not answer nay,
But from their homes and friends and
kin
They bravely marched away.
Beneath the flag of freedom we
In peace repose today,
And mid the folds of glory's flag
The gentle sunbeams play.
A loving north and loyal south,
United, mourn our dead
And gaze with patriotic pride
At stars and stripes o'erhead.

Jack Carroll, a retired army SER
geant, OF Topeka, Kansas, once ar
rested General Shafter and marched
him fourteen miles down hot and
dusty mountain trail in Arizona. Car
rolls own story of how he got even"
is this:
"One day during difference Of opin-
ion between myself and the officer Of
the day over a trivial affair the officer
so far forgot himself as to strike me
across the face with the fiat of his
sword, after calling me several
vile names No sooner had the blow
fallen than I drew back my fist and
with all the strength in my right arm
struck the officer between the eyes.
He fell about ten feet from me and in
my passion l ran to him and kicked
him several times before he could rise.
THE affair was the sensation of the
garrison for about two weeks and was
supposed to have blown over. when
Colonel Shafter heard of it. He sent
word for me to come to his office.
Here he informed me that he had
heard the story and asked me if l real
lied the enormity of my offense in
striking my superior officer. l told
him that l did, but would strike any
officer who would subject me to tia
indignity which the officer Of the day
had.
"Shafter became angry at this re-
ply and said with a sheer, You would
strike me, suppose?'
81 quietly answered, Yes, sir
What, with these on? Would you
strike a man wearing these? Do you
dare to tell me that you would strike
me?'
81 smiled at his anger and told him
that l certainly would. He was liter
ally uncomfortable in his passion at
this reply. He called in an orderdly
and in voice heavy with emotion Or
dered me thrown into the guard-house.
In few minutes afterward he sent
another orderly with instructions to
the guard to rivet ball and chain on
my ankle.
II was left in this condition for five
weeks without a chance to change my
clothing and no opportunity for hear
! ing OF my case. Finally General
| Miles heard of the affair and ordered
me released without trial.
