A Charming Waist.

Mauve drap d'ete, velvet Of q darker
shade, white corded taffeta and irregu-
lar insertion are stylishly united in
the charming waist illustrated in the
large engraving. The pretty bodice
decoration of velvet is finished separ-
ately and applied over the completed
waist. It may be used as an acces-
sorry, for other waists may be worn
with low pompadour neck and short
sleeves for evening dress. The full
fronts are supported by fitted Innings
tn at close in center back, the square
yoke of corded or tucked taffeta being
applied over the lining. The collar is
of taffeta to match the yoke facing.
The two-seamed sleeves have becom-
ing fulness at the top and are ar
ranged over fitted Innings, the wrists
being decorated with bands of velvet
and insertion to match the bretelles.
The mode presents opportunity for the
introduction of three contrasting ma
terials, which is ofttimes desirable
when remodeling misses waists. The
bretelles may be of some material dec
grated with braid, ribbon or passemen-
terie, the yoke and collar facing being
all-over lace underlaid with satin in
white or some becoming color.
To make this waist for miss four-
teen years of age will require one and
one-half yards of material forty-four
inches wide.

5arr;ed tn Cure the Blues.

"Well, sir, I had no more thought
of getting married to-day when I went
to bed last night than I had of shoot
ing myself" said Frank Provost, of
Kansas City, Mo-, when he applied to
Judge Kerr, of Kansas City, Kan, for
a marriage license. -.
"But after I got up this morning." "
he continued, "the weather was 80 bad
that I was seized with an attack OF the
blues, and, meeting my sweetheart,
we decided to get married. She had
the blues also"
Probate Judge Herr smiled and
asked the prospective bride, who was
Mary Baker, also of Kansas City, NO.,
if such was the case. She answered
in the affirmative, and after the license
was issued the Judge performed the
ceremony which made them man and
wife.-kansas City Journal.

ASYLUM FOR INSANE INDIANS.

Ont OF 100000 Indians in This Country
Only Fifty eight Are Mentally Diseased.
Work will soon begin on the asylum for
insane Indians at Canton, S. D., Tor which
Congress made an appropriation OF S42,-
900, with an additional $4,000 for the pur-
chase OF grounds. 1t Is interesting to
know that out OF a total OF 25O 600 Indians
In the United Stutes there are only fifty
eight VINO are insane, i doubtful, idiotle
and Q partly idiotic. This is IL wonderfuf
showing, and, according to statistics, is
not eqnalled by any race OF people on
earth, civilized or uncivilized. These un-
balanced Indians are distributed as follows=

Cheyenne agency, 5; Utah, Uintah and

Seven OF the insae Indians are being
cared for Mt retreats for the custody OF ir-
responsible and mentally diseased pa-
tients, leaving less than fifty under no pro-
visIon for their care and treatment. The
asylum will be arranged with every con-
venience for their care, comfort and good
treatment, and will be pushed to compile

Two Wells to Crown the Hats.

You are not exactly proper just now
unless you wear two wells on your hat.
1t is queer and strange that women
will hide the brims of hats which are
plated, shirred and tucked in infinite
quantities of tulle and malines by
wells of more or less important quality.
One is of net. which is pulled down
closely over the face to keep out the
dust and to prevent the creeping out
of stray locks of hair, and the other
is of white or black chiffon dotted
and bordered with chenille, which
must be pinned very loosely over the
hat, to give an appearance of e1ces-
sive iauntiness.

CHAPTER XI.

AkulR


The two Jumars and Miss Arnold
sat and gazed at me wonderingly. But
I told them no more. The time to tell
them my plans had not come yet.
When it did, felt that I would find
them ready to aid me.
Mr.. Avery heaved sigh.
s'Well, Crickmore," he said, "you
doubtless know your own mind.
But you are running into great dan
ger.''
"Not more than I am here" I re-
plied. "Here We simply wait for
death to come to US. If death must
be my portion, I propose to meet 1t
half way. This inactivity is irksome.
I must do something toward effectlng
our release"
The weight of the subject was too
much for everybody. After futile
attempt to resume conversation, Mr..
Avery and the two Jumars went away.
As they were leaving, I once more re-
minded Oso-Bark of his promise:
"Oolek, do not fear," he said, IT
will gather the bark before I sleep
this night. The good teacher can
bring it to you in the morning"
"And one other thing I want" I
said. Bring me suit of clothes
similar to those you wear"
"That, too, Oolek," he said, and
they were gone.
What is this dangerous thing you
are going to do?" asked Miss Arnold,
as was leaving her with her dusky
companion. "What plan have you?"
"Do not worry" replied. " Ishall
do nothing rash. I am going among
the people to study them. lam going
to study also the resources at our COM
mand. I do not feel that the Talmoo-
chians have done themselves justice
in submitting for twenty years to
Chinese rule"
"And then what? Suppose you
find resources that have been over
looked; what will be the result?"
"War."

The Correct Thing to Wear.

Shepherds plaid woolen materials
in b!ack and white, petunia and white
and gendarme blue and white are the
very height OF fashion just now for
making up into skirts, and the correct
thing is to wear short jacket or coat
made Of satin-face amazone cloth to
match the color of the check material
Of which the skirt is made. The fancy
shape revers and collar are faced with
the shepherds plaid. White crystal
buttons are used to decorate double
breasted and open-fronted coats, and
certainly look more stylish than or
binary bone buttons.

Don is.

Don't Judge man by his nose;
perhaps it is only sunburned.
Don't think you can offend justice
of the peace by calling aim judge.
Don't imagine you can make soft
pillows of feathers from Cupid's wings.
Don't wait until the good things Of
life get by before looking after them.
Don't think the man who is always
on the run wins the most OF llfe's
races.
Don't attempt to determine the
gender of your chickens before they
are hatched.
Don't envy the man with wonder

he'd rather forget.
Don't think woman will ever dis
cover that she is beautiful If she waits
until some other woman tells her,

The craze for foulards has by no
means abated. In fact, as the season
advances 30 are more patterns sprung
upon the market. They are all of the
very softest, satiny order, very differ
ent from the hard combination of silk
and surah of yore. The mostpopular
colors are a mixture Of blues and
white, but pink and black, and even
mauyes, have been IN great demand.

On the Wearing Of Wells.

White wells are becoming only tc

Liberty silks in evening shades or in
