There are constant mistakes made
with regard to the meetings of the heads
of Departments. 1t is ever and anon
stated for instance that the council
granted Josiah Buggins light beer
and wine license upon the Island of
Molokini. The council has nothing to
do with the license on Molokini. The
treasurer grants the license, and fifty
councils could not prevent him from
granting fifty licenses for that populous
center, provided each one complied with
the law. The Treasurer has, however,
a perfect right to ask other heads whe-
Their having granted Josiah his license,
it will be wise to grant Manuel TaVares,
Jim Opelu, and Gloriano de Porto Rico
each a license. His colleagues have a
perfect right to advise him, and then
he can act as he pleases. The treasurer
grants licenses. the council can grant or
refuse nothing, but it can advise a
course.

Prince Ching was highly sarcastic
when he took over the Forbidden City
from the Allied troops and compliment
ed their officers upon the admirable
condition in which it had been returned
to its original owners. A recent ma
gazne article by well known lady en-
titled Picking Revisited" describes
very forcibly the wanton destruction
which had taken place within those
walls. The destruction was done with
deliberation so as to hurt Chinese
pride in a vulnerable point. Perhaps
Ching was not sarcastic after all. He
may have wanted to impress the dis
tant hordes of China with the idea that
the outer barbarians had not dared to
injure the Forbidden City in any par
ticular One can never judge of what
an oriental thinks, by what he says.

FANCIES OF FASHION.
They Are of the Daintiest and Most
Delightful Nature.
New Skirt Is Graceful In It's Lines
and Universally Becoming
BIouses Trimmed in Laces
and Embroidery.
Especial Chicago Letter.

a S FAR as it is possible to judge
n at the pI asent moment, there
seems to be every reason to be-
lieve that the fashions of the iDme-
date future will be of the daintiest
and most delightful description. The
weather this spring has been so cold
and generally disagreeable that really
smart clothes have been in very little
demand, in consequence whereof
modistes have had much longer pc
Rod of rest than is usually the case,
and they seem to have employed their
leisure to the greatest possible advan-
tage in the designing of charming
gowns suitable for both early and mid
summer wear, which are far prettier
and more generally becoming than
anything which has been seen for many
seasons. To be sure, some of the main
features that marked the spring styles
are carried out in the summer modes,
but all are changed and improved upon
to such degree as to be hardly recog-
nizable.
The new skirt continues to fit with
glove-lle snugness about the hips, and
with the same wonderful amount of
flare at the bottom as heretofore. The
jaunty little bolero is to be seen on
every other gown as of yore, while
the old, yet ever new, blouse-bodice
still reigns supreme; but, somehow,
by bold contrast of color, an extra
sash to the rever of the bolero or a
deft twist to the pouched bodice, the
clever modiste has managed to give an
air of extreme novelty to these sum-
mer gowns that is both pleasing and
fascinating.
Every device and trick known to
the trade is employed to produce the
graceful fullness at the bottom of the
approved skirt, and according to the
decree of Dame Fashion it must show
either tucks, plaitings or one or more
graceful fOunces as its most dis
tinctive feature. 4 taffeta foundation.
matching in color the goods, adds
much elegance to this new skirt, es-
pecially when the material chosen hap
pens to be crepe de chine or the all
conquering nuns yelling. Satin
faced foulard promises to be among
the favorite materials for smart aft
| ernoon frocks. The fancy of the mo-
ment is to trim these sillIen gowns
with one or more accordion-plaited
ruff1es, made of black point de esprit
net over one of white taffeta silk. An
other fad, and very pretty one, too,
is to have a little cloth bolero
matching the prevailing color in
the silk. For instance, a laven-
der and white foulard was fin
ished with smart-lool1ing bolero
! fashioned of lavender cloth and
trimmed with narrow silver and white
braid and tiny silver buttons. An
othergown in which this idea was very
prettily carried out was in a, lovely
shade of rose pink lightly patterned in
black and white. The chic bodice was
rendered doubly so by means of a
jaunty white cloth bolero, cut very

ABLACKSMITH'S STRANGE EX-
PERIENCE.

Goodland, Kan, June 3.-N. E. AL
bertson, our leading blacksmith, has
been a great sufferer from Rheuma-
tism. He was so bad that he could not
sleep for the great pain in his arms
and shoulders. He had been afflicted
for years, but lately he was so much
worse, that he thought he would have
to give up his shop altogether.
Then a strange thing happened. A
friend of his recommended a new med
icine called Dodd's Kidney Pills, said
to be a cure for Rheuma tism. He
commenced to use them and at once
began to recover. His pain has all left
him, and he is we'll man to-day, and
entirely free from any symptom of
Rheumatism.
To say he is thankful, is putting it
very mildly. He is delighted.
Dodd's Kidney Pills deserve great
credit for having cured this very Sc
we're and almost hopeless case.
From recent reports, there does not
seem to be anything that they will not
cure, as very bad cases of Bright's Dis
ease, Diabetes, Dropsy, rheumatism,
and Heart Trouble, have been cured by
Dodd's Kidney Pills, even after hav-
ing been given up by the best doctors.

SPORT IN WESTERN CANADA.
While the Farmers Grain Is IsIpenins
and His Stock Growing Fat, He
May Have Plenty of Shooting.

There is probably no country on
the American Continent where the
life of the farmer carries with it
that assurance of comfort and sue
cess as does Western Canada. Nor
is there to be found anywhere else
such a pleasant combination. Game
abounds everywhere and nowhere
does it afford such perfect amuse-
ment. a noted sportsman writing of
the favorite pastime says: There is
one particular spot where I saw
man drop 20 mallards one morning,
and bring them all to bag, too, for
they dropped in open water or on
fat prairie. At the right season of
the year you can see black lines and
triangles cut sharply out against the
sky all round you, moving very
swiftly, and you begin to wonder
whether you have enough cartridges
to hold out. You can hear the
prairie-chiclen growing like barn
door fowls; and little to the north
east is a bit of marshy ground, cat
tie poached, and dappled with gleam-
ing pools, where the snipe are near
~ as thick as mosquitoes. A thin
column of blue smoke curling up in
the distance shows you where a few
wandering Indians have pitched their
camp, but there is no other indica-
ton of civilization in sight. Still,
the neighborhood is well-settled, and
a short drive will bring you to a
farmhouse where you can buy the
finest butter and the freshest eggs
for uncivilized prices.
ga very short railway journey will
bring you to a country full of deer
and the lordly wapiti, the king of
the deer tribe the world over; and
down on the fat, Doggy land by the
lake shores the moose will stand
| knee-deep in water on the summer
evenings, ready to lie down when the
! flies get bothering. All day you
breathe the wild free air of the
prairie, and at night you are luIled
| to sleep by the surge and ripple and
| splash of the waves on the beach,

short in the back to show folded
girdle of turquoise blue panne velvet.
1 know the intermingling of rose pink
and turquoise blue sounds rather dar-
ing, but in this particular instance the
combination was introduced by the
artistic fingers of a master hand, with
results that were simply stunning.
The extreme daintiness of the new
cotton fabrics cannot but appeal in
the strongest manner to the love of
the beautiful innate in womankind.
Cool-looking dimities and French
lawns are to be recloned among the
most attractive materials now on eN-
hibition, while the silk ginghams and
embroidered cotton batistes are love
" enough to tempt the unwary into
rank extravaganza. They come in
white. pale blue, light green and all
the pretty new shades of pink. Some
of the silk ginghams have double
border of silk woven on the edge,
which is meant to be used as trim
ming in connection with much lace and
wards upon yards of the evCr-popular
Persian ribbon. Many of the new
mercerized ducks and cheviots, cotton
though they be, are exceedingly beau
tifuI. and so closely resemble the most
lustrous silk as to make them quite
admirably suited for any but the most
dressy wear Within the week have
seen some very swel.-looking tailor
ooyyns fashioned of both these mate
rails, those of cheviot being particu-
larly fetching. All were as carefully
tailored, even down to the smallest
detail, as though made of the finest
broadcloth. Some showed to particu-
lar advantage with their short Elton
coats tucked both back and front,
while the skirt was treated in a similar
manner, then finished with deep
yoke of yellow lace. Others again
have their seams finely strapped, and
to be strictly up-to-date these strap
pings should be either of silk or cloth.
The blouse and the shirt waist again
show a tendency toward much fine
hanGwork and incrustations of lace
and embroidery. The very prettiest
are of fnely-tucked lawn or batiste,
and their beauty is further enhanced
by the wise introduction of fine lace
insertions. The sleeves are tight at
the top but become fuller toward the
wrist. and like the remainoee of the

One of the most lovely new models
in headgear 1 have seen was a nut
brown straw toque, trimmed with
soft pink roses, with some old pat
termed coffee lace placed to droop
low over the brim. Shapes are very
fiat and wide just now, and very often
they are curved at the side. Flowers
will be immensely popular later in
the season. Many of the new hats
are worn tilted off the face, ard cut
up the back to show the new low
couture, the brims being lined with
some controlling color. Some are
quite square in front, the entire
crowns being garlanded in flowers.
The wide boat shape is kept fiat and
simply trimmed with foliage. [
rather doubt whether this new fiat
style of headgear will prove becoming
to many, but it is change; and so
we welcome it for its air of novelty
if not for its beauty and general be-
comingness. KATE GARDNER.

waist seem to be an intricate mass of
tiny tucks and fine lace.
Some of the prettiest plain glace
and crepe de chine blouses have deep
collars of embroidered lawn. These
collars are worn low on the shoulder
and give rather sloping effect, with
an inner vest of tucked lawn and lace
to correspond. The popularity of the
lace blouse seems rather to wax than
wane, and just now it is the proper
caper to have it made of handsome
Maltese lace. I am bound to tell you.
however, that this lace used in the
making of the approved blouse, in
which much fine handwork must ap-
pear, would run the price of the gar
ment up to figure that would place
it quite beyond the reach of the aver
age purse.
The newest and very smartest
shade in millinery is. a lovely nut
brown, and is dividing the honors
with an equally exquisite shade
known as flame pink" Soft straws
in this latter shade are particularly
popular with milliners just now, who
veil them with tulle and generally
trim them with flowers in dead tones,
some times mixed with old lace.

the taste. It is found in copper mines,
and is used to ornament chairs and
cabinets and so forth, says the Chicago
Chronicle. The largest and finest
pieces of this strange substance are
taken from the mines of Siberia, and it
was the Russians who first found a
way of using it. That required great
deal of thought and patience, for the
substance cannot be melted and it
breaks easily. The only way to pre-
pare it for use is to slice it into thin
strips, join the strips together with
cement and polish the surface. When
this is done it looks like dark pearl,
with its wavy lines and changeful color
effects.
The chemical name for this sub
stance is carbonate of copper, for it is
formed Of carbonic acid and copper.
However, the green variety is known
to dealers in it as malachite, and the
blue kind is called azurite. In some of
the churches in Russia there are large
columns of malachite. which look as
solid as marble and far handsCmer.
In the palace of Versailles, near Paris,
there is room in which the furniture
and mantels are made of this same
salt. Azurite, because it is more brit
tie than malachite, is less used.
