KEEP Up THE WORK

Nothing should be allowed to stand in
the way OF the work of constantly
pushing the Louisiana Purchase Worlds
Fair. The moral effect of the big vic
tory won by the Louisiana Purchase ter
rltory at Washington In securing the
S5,oon,e00 appropriation should not be
allowed TO pass off. The agitation
should be kept up. 81. Louis should
prosecute without internlission the work
that remains: Completing the $1,000
600 popular subscription, making un-
doubted the passage of the constitu-
tional amendments which must be voted
upon at the November elections. So
curing appropriations for State exhibits
from the legislatures Of all the States
in the Louisiana Purchase territory, and
interesting foreign countries in the
great project.
st. Louis should not allow present con-
ditlons TO interfere with the great work.
y street car strike and the absence
from the city on summer tours of large
numbers of st. Louisans form no argu-
ment in favor of waiting. The Fair is
a world project. 81. Louis has before
her a S16.ooo00U enterprise and a
period of three years in which 10 bring
it 10 completion. No postponement is
possible, even were it desirable, because
1901 is a Presidential election year.
The Louisiana Purchase Worlds Fair
is not Il ST. Louis enterprise alone. 1t
concerns the whole United States and
the whole world. To get the greatest
possible results out of such an enter
prise involves steady work and unin-
terrupted energy

How Cormorant. Feed Their Young In

How Cormorants Feed Their Young in
New Zealand.
Along the coast OF New Zealand cer-
tain rocky islets are the home of vast
breeding colonies of cormorants.
termed 'shaggeries." One of these is
Rurima Rock, near Auckland; and in
his magnificent work on the ornithol-
ogy Of New Zealand, Sir Walter Butler
describes how each of the scores of
great stick-built nests contained two
dedglings. each swaying its head from
side to side and Squirting at the top
of its voice. To these impatient young
sters came the old birds up from the
sea, with their flexible pouches be-
meath their bills distended by weight
Of small fishes. AS soon as parent,
thus laden, alights upon the edge of
the nest. the young birds, craning their
necks almost to the point Of disloca-
tion, scramble expectantly up beside
her. Then the mother in loving way
opens wide her mandibles and the
young shag, with an impatient guttur-
al note. thrusts his head right down
the parental throat. and draws forth
from the pouch. after much fumbling
about, the first instalment Of his din
ner. No sooner has he swallowed this
than he begins to call for more. re-
sisting his brothers effort to take his
turn. and coaxing his mother by ca
ressing her with his big beak in very
amusing way. AS this sort of thing Is
going on In hundred houses at once,
and all the neighbors' young ones are
squawling and squealing. while the old
ones crow and struggle for new nest
ing material. or unite to mob some
hated bawler or jager. the noise and
turmoil are deafening. and suggest
something very different from the u.s.
ual notion of domestic bird life.

Tip on summer p.oor.t,op..

There are no more dainty patterns
In wall papers this season. Severity
and strict soberness are the watch
words OF the wall furnishings of
dwelling rooms, and the white and
gold era fades away in abundant
shadows. According to the dealers in
wall papers, old fashions are to be re-
vived. The colonial primness is in
favor, and when a modern house is
dressed up in the primary colors as
to wall papers it has dignity that re-
minds one of the square coats and
knee breeches of past generation.
One Of the patterns used in the new
home of Mrs. Andrew Carnegie is
made up Of verticle stripes in various
colors. They are red and green, yell
low, blue and violet hues that make
a striking combination. Other pat
terms are of flowers of the old-fash-
ioned kind-hollyhocks, morning glo-
ries, honeysuckle. dahlias, etc.

An Artiatic Milliner.

"Hyacinths were never in great
favor" said the French milliner, who
has wee shop but big clientele, ac-
cording to the New York Commercial
Advertiser. THE pink and white ones
are charming for black hats or for
entire flower bonnets, but the blue and
purplish blue are the most popular.
Why is it? Hyacinth blues are pretty.
but no shade is more trying. Women
who should wear shades of green and
red and rose-heliotrope come in here
and order cold-gray straw hats trim
med with blue hyacinths. They order
them but they do not get them from
me. That is why my place Is still in

ant, who began when / did, is on the

uine. An exceptionally clear and pink
skin may require no falsity. A dark
one may chance to suit the character
to be assumed.
But these exceptions to the rule are
rare. The glare OF artificial light
would make most faces ghastly white
or unpleasantly sallow If bright hues
were not laid on. The art of coloring
pretty visage just enough, and not
overriding it. is one which all actresses
should learn. Many do not, and SO
we see beauty disfgured instead of en-
hanced. Others are very expert. There
are two distinct processes. One makes
use Of colored powders applied dry.
The other mixes the same powders
with grease, making a substance
called grease paint.
