A LONGER WAIST.
There is a new trick for producing the
French figure. The French figure has
the waist longer IN front than in the
back. 1t is difficult to get this. Corsets
are made that produce a straight line be-
low the belt. But for stout figures this
bodice is pulled long in front until it is
over the belt line and covers it. This
gives the long-pointed front effect.
Grey IS to be much worn and you a
select your whole summer wardrobe
from it with safety. 1t comes in steel,
in dark slate and in grey so dark that
1t is called invisible" 1t is also pro-
that shade which suggests a bride. These
colOrs are seen in the thinnes null, and
in other lightweight wash goods; also in
the new mousseline, which is a trans
parent cotton goods with a silk finish.
The prattiest or rose Innings will shine
through the grey. Greys are worn with
all eolors this year, blue being special
ly chic and Frenchy.
Beware of dark colors in selecting sum-
meH goods. The fade shades will be the
fashionable ones. Dark cambrics are la
Dor saving, but they are seldom either
fashionable or pretty, and will hardly
find a place among the August dresses.
There is a use, however. for the dark
challies and cambrics. AS travelling
dresses they are unequalled: as snugly

not to be eXcelled. AS dresses for house

testimony anywhere to the above facts.

Representatives of the Pacific Board
of Underwriters have finally lowered
the rate of insurance on all business
property in The Dalles, Or. This in
cludes the larger portion of the build
ings below the bluff, and the rates in
some cases were lowered much more
than the citizens had reason to expect.
This action on the part of the insurance
companies is taken as a result of the
increased facilities for fighting fire here
above the other cities of the class in
the Northwest. A perfect fire alarm
system is now in order, and the recent
chemical enigne and hook and ladder
tests have proved very satisfactory.

Rutchered seven Whales.

Butchered Seven Whales.
W. c. King, of Sand Lake. writes to
The Tillamook, Or. Headlight, the fol-
lowing story of the killing OF seven
stranded whales:
On May 10. as o. R. Chamberlain
was walking along the beach, he dis
covered some black objects in the edge
of the water. and upon approaching
nearer he discovered that they were
whales. which had become stranded
from some cause or other. There were
seven of them, and they were making
tremendous effort to get back into deep
water, without avail. The tide was
leaving them. They would open their
mouths and draw in about q barrel OF
water and then squirt it through the
hole in the top of their head 20 feet
into the air, and lying sometimes on
their sides it was like getting in the
cross.fre of a hose company. Mr..
Cham berlain made tracks for home to
get his gun and q butcher knife to
carve them up. On his return he
turned loose with his gun to kill them,
but after wasting few shots he saw
that he could not kill them in that
way, so he sailed into them with his
butcher knife, and stuck them as you
would hog. That did the work, and
he soon had seven whales strung on the
beach that were from eight to Is feet
long.
He at once commenced to strip the
blubber from the outside of the body
and inside the head. The fat was cut
into six-inch strips and thrown across
a horses back and taken home and rem.
dered out, which will amount to several
barrels. 1t has market value, and
Mr.. Chamberlain will likely realize
considerable from it.
