\ SUMMER MAN
 IN GAY ATTIRE
Brilliant PIaids and Crepe Ties Offered Him as We'll as Silk
 and TuIIe for Hat Bands

The summer man is buying his trous- seau. He will wed the sea goddess and for this he needs bathing suit. He will woo the mountain nymph and, for the Sweet task, he requires knickers and a sweater. He will stroll along the sands and walk the green fields and for both these pastimes he needs clothes.
 But the man who stays at home and reads his ledger must also dress If the others need cooling garments he needs still cooler ones. If the others delight in pretty things, fiannels of varied hues, short coats and fancy vests, he delights fin them none the less because he must wear them to work instead of sporting them by the sea.
 There lives fo man this season with soul too dead to appreciate the new hats. They are making derbies of straw. which, how ever, you are compelled to order, made in advance for you, and they are also making high hats of straw, looking rather odd, you may be sure but cool and summery.
 Until the advent of the Spanish war, and the first summer in the tropics of Cuba and the Philippines there was no such thing as a helmet, except upon an explorer or a man of eccentricities. The wearer of a straw helmet felt that he must be tall ented indeed before he dared intrude such an article upon the public gaze. Now they are wearing these cool tropical hats every day in New York and many men wear tulle around them.
 Net, tulle figured lawns and silk are the favorite trimming for the summer hat. Mems sailors have their twist of colored tulle; and mems soft Alpines are decorated with winding of gay silk. The prejudice against feminine trimmings is wearing off and you see them all the time. There are silk scarfs with their traceries of scarlet and there are lawn scarfs with their bands of bright silk.
 The summer girl, be she sweetheart or sister, so long as she be friend, can decor ate the plainest of last summers hats very prettily. Let her bargain for her work. A dollar saved is a dollar earned and goes just as far in ice cream sodas. With last years grey left, and little soap bark 5udiciously applied in solution of warm water, she can make new hat.
 Or, if she be brave, she can dip the hat in gasoline and gently massage it, in the day time. until the spots are gone. But let her not do so by gasllght as gasoline is a treacherous article to handle. When the hat has been dried and aired, until 1t is fresh and spotless, let her expend dollar upon the gayest silk scarf in the haber- dashers window and not sickle over a quarter or so in price. It is the best ar- tiele which costs the most, generally.
 Let her take the scarf and, if it is too 'slinky" let her line it with crinoline, and with this hearty substance let her twist the hat until 1t is trimmed A knot at one side concludes the trimming.
 If the man be disinclined to gay trim mings, what Is the matter-in the words of the younger brother-with a winding of white tulle or even broad fold of black taffeta which, by the way, is very swell this year. Anything to get away from the straight stiff sailor which is not too becoming.
The age-herald., 1900-06-17

Sailors are made becoming by being SUD- piled with rather broad brims and trimmed with gaily colored bands of all descrip- tions. The brighter the bands the hand somer the hat and the more expensive, as a rule.
 The white trouser is in. Trouserings come in beautiful linen duck, cut on the newest lines These articles bell around the ankle and fit around the leg. They are creased and modish and quite differ ent from the linen trousers of childish memory when all that was expGted was width and length, the latter even being lacking after wetting.
 The correct trouserings include the bluest linen, fine and soft, also the coarsest Of white duck, so heavy that 1t becomes an army crash. Men differ in their fondness for these materials. many claiming that the coarse variety holds it's own the best in dampness and in dust
 If you are in your own business where every energy is strained to do well for yourself then cast thoughts of economy to the winds, purchase a dozen sets of washable summer suits and wear them all the time. That is practically the advice of New York's most famous physician who declares that men injure themselves and destroy their gray matter every summer by over-heating their bodies with unsuita- ble dress.
 New York in summer runs parallel with Bombay in climate; in the former they wear broadcloth and felt; in the latter nothing but linen.
 Chicago is little cooler, in degrees, than New York, but sweltering enough some- times; and for the South there should be no argument Every man should wear the thinnest he can find and rejoice that he has nothing warmer.
 Shirts are growing fantastic. A man who buys a shirt is asked If he will have the stripes running up and down or hori- zontal He is questioned upon his tastes regarding a blouse front; if he wants a soft bosom or stiff one; whether he will take shirt in two materials or in one. This means that the race of men have a wide latitude of choice and that the day of the stiffiy starched white terror is past.
 The pink flannel man can rejoice this year in a shirt of transparent China silk under which is a pink silk lining. His blue flannel brother may wear a muslin shirt with blue silk blouse dotted with as many polka dots as tatse may dictate. The tan shoe reigns as nothing more comfortable has appeared; and the enamel shoe is worn for convenience. Toes that lie fiat upon the ground are the accepted shape for sum- mer and leather with figures cut out is used for tips and vamps.

The Disputed Name of the War.

The Disputed Name of the War.
The Confederate Veterans, in their
annual convention in Louisville. decid-
ed that the war of 1868 should be
known as the war between the
states" This is the name that Alexan-
der H. Stephens favored, and it is the
one generally used by the people Of the
south in speaking of that war, the
northern people calling it the rebellion.
Strange it is that neither name is cor
rect definition of the event. All know
that there was no rebellion. States that
had sovereignty could not be guilty Of
rebellion. Neither was it war be-
tween the states, but actually a war
between two governments made up of
states. Some writers call it civil war,
yet it was not q war between citizens
in their civil capacity, but. as before
said. a war between regularly organ
lied governments. There Is, in fact. no
concise way of naming the conflict;
hence these misnomers. Possibly the
best title would be the simple one of
calling it by the years of its beginning
and close-namely, the war Of 1861-5.-

The Genesis Of a Patriot.

one night IN lI76 the Duke or
Gloucester, the royal brother of George
III, then hiding from his kingly broth
er's wrath in Paris. was RECALLING ta-
BILE party of aristocrats at the expense
of the king of England with trench
ant account of the Boston tea party"
His cynical sympathy was expressed
for the American rebels, and he dwelt
upon their need for recruits to fight
against his brother. The table laugh
ed at the tale, which was the first the
most of them had heard directly on the
preposterous ambitions for freedom Of
the new world colonists. Among the
company was a silent, solemn young
soldier who had listened intently to
the recluse until the dinner was finish
ed. Then he strobe across the room to
the duke.
81 will join the Americans! l will
help them fight for freedom! Tell me
how to set about itv' he cried, his sal
low, listless face now aglow with fire
none of his idle comrades had ever
seen there before.
1t was Lafayette, the 19-year-old
marquis, who was the despair of his
family because he seemed always in a
browse. Coming from one of the no
blest houses of the empire, he was mar
ried to lady Of high degree and was
already a father. His wife had been
his love, but now freedom became the
stronger passion, and for more than 60
years he was to follow it's cause. This
was the genesis Of Lafayette.-Edward
