AIRY MUSLINS IN VOGUE.
The Printed Swiss MnsiIns Divide Favor
with the Organizes.

This is a muslin-clad summer Print
ed Swiss muslins divide favor with or
candies. The former have spotted
grounds; the latter striped or plain.
Those with plain grounds are, perhaps,
the most dressy Of the two. Stylish or
CANDIES have a scroll pattern consist
ing of roses or other large or enlarged
flowers on one side only, intended as
a border for the edge of the skirt. I'm
deniably charming and delicate, char
acterized by the fllmy, graceful, cling
ing qualities so much sought for this
season, are the embroidered lawns and
light cotton veilings that bear the
poetic name of Lalla Rookhs. Those
that are not embroidered are printed
in bouquets Of shadowy flowers. A
new applique lace will be used to trim
muslins this summer after the man
ner Of the French gowns Its founda-
ton is coarse cream cotton net Of
Fedora or Brussels weave On the net
is applied, in wreaths, garlands or bou-
quets, design Of flowers cut from
printed lawn or organdie. Sometimes
a few stitches of embroidery are added
here and there or scrap Of lace Is
woven to complete a desired effect
Women who are clever with the en-
broidery needle can themselves make
fiounces, panels, revers or sleeves by
cutting out the roses, fuchsias, pop
pies or pompadour baskets from yard
or two of muslin and by the aid of fine
stitching distribute them on white
cotton point d'esprit. 1t is very fra
gile decoration, this princesse lace, but
it is novel and fashionable.

WE SUPPORT soVEREIoNs.
What We Contribute to Royalty Amounts
to Vast Sum.

The United States contributes vast
sum Of money regularly to the support
OF foreign soyereigns. The money Is
not paid as a tribute, but In the form
OF interest upon many millions OF dol
lars invested by these potentates. 1t
Is generally supposed that several roy
al personages own real estate In New
York. AS a matter OF fact their hold
ings consist of railroad and Industrial
stocks and United States bonds Queen
Victoria Is believed to have derived an
Income of 100000 annually from her
American investments. She has been
generally credited with owning large
interest in the Bowling Green building,
though as a matter of fact her money
was nearly all invested in stocks. Her
holdings included American sugar,
American Steel and Wire. Tennessee
Coal and Iron and one or two railroad
stocks unknown.
King Edward, when Prince OF Wales.
enjoyed considerable income from
American railroad holdings. The prop
erty has since been transferred to his
son George. The emperor Of Germany
has holdings in the Union and South
ern Pacific, Illinois Central and Atchi-
son railroad bonds. His wife has, be-
side, about half million in American
railroad holdings, and it is believed
that several other members OF the roy
al family are interested to considerable
amounts. The car Of All the Russias
Is said to be the best informed OF all
European sovereigns on American
railroad interests. The cars invest
ments are very conservative,

l wonder why l am left all alone in
this dingy corner | know | am rusty
and worm-eatep and unfit for use, yet
/ do believe there is a little life IN that
trigger yet. good many years have
passed since my brave young master
grasped me in his warm hand ana
started for the drill hall where other
young men stood in a straight line ana
carried arms, and shouldered arms
and diligently went through the man
ual of tactics. 1t was not long before
the summers came and the boys
marched out in their beautiful neS
uniforms to the music of the villas
band.
How they cheered us as we weni
marching down to fight and the ar
was full of futtering handkerchief
damp with tears, but dried in the SOFT,
warm wind of that May morning. Inc
trees were full of pink and white bios
SONS and the sweet, warm earth sent
its fragrance like a benediction on this
little company, whose hearts grew
faint as they thought Of unknown ter
rors, but whose eyes and lips looked
and whispered brave words Of love,
duty, patriotism.
In the midst OF the waiting throng
at the station was Miss Mamie Craw-
ford, who stood like the great white
statue that guards the tomb of her
mother. She had waited evidently
some time in the motley throng, but
she appeared quiet and nerveless, al
though a slight twitching of the eyes
and lips showed deep emotion.
On came the sons Of Father Abra-
ham to swell the vast army to vaster
proportions, swinging along in even
step, with the rhythm of the band, led
by gallant Colonel Dillingham;. AS
they neared this point, mothers, sisters
and friends pressed forward to thrust
flowers, packages, letters and lunch
boxes, little last tokens of their love
and affection. The bright glitter OF
the officers swords flashed in the sun,
but the soldiers muskets made as
brave a showing.
Heavily the lines advanced and
passed Nancy, who clutched at her
breast as if to stifie the means she
knew she must not utter until my
young master swung into line before
her.
Thrusting a tiny packet toward him,
she replied:
God bless you, Ned! l will pray
for you every hour!"
Through Gods mercy, the order to
halt was then given as those in front
crowded into the waiting cars. Mus
kets were at rest and a grand on

limpid eyes of Miss Mamie, who had
been sent for as instructions were
found on his person. The knife thrust
was not fatal as IL had been diverted
by the miniature of my sweet young
mistress.
Yes. she became my mistress after
the war and my brave young master
rose to be general in the army. Lieu
tenant Meredith met his death anu
confessed all before the fatal moment.
Each Decoration Day the general
and his wife take carriage down "
the generals post and from there a
mass OF blossoms and vines are taken
to the cemetery, where the body Oh
that traitor lies. All! here comes the
general and he takes me up In MS
firm, strong hands. His hair is grow
ing white and his voice Is not SO
strong as in those days when he bade
Miss Nan to be brave.
Mamie, dearest, here is my OLD
gun! Faithful friend!"
He turns me from side to side, as ne
says:
speak IL would tell a romantic history.
That scamp-don't look so, darling. l
forgive him-but bit Of righteous in
dignation overcomes me when thlnk
OF him stealing over me and trying 10
finish me. He met his fate as all such
natures do, and-but l forgive him.
To prove to you that am as progress
sive as the world, / will order the Big

morrow and you must place 1t"

ture and l suppose it is because am

choose?" asked my mistress.
II think a fitting one will be a
heart-shaped design like this precious
miniature Time softens all hearts
and tomorrow will be day when ami
mostly should be laid aside. This dear
face" and the general looked upon
the lovely face of Miss Nan as when
in the COS she had tripped down 10
the station and gave him the talisman
that had preserved his life, this dear
face, darling, has been my inspiration
and my salvation. Meredith was not
to blame for loving you, but the means
he took to secure you were reprehen-
sible. 1t is a curious thing that
should find old 'trusty' on this day OF
all days. | have neglected the Ola
piece and we will do so no more. Have
his barrel frightened and put him In
my den, dear, tomorrow, although I've
half a mind to have him in the pro-
cession. Cad! | will turn him over
to Comrade jerks and he will be proud
to carry his generals first musket."
So, on the great Decoration Day /
was taken through the streets and out
to the cemetery, where the comrades
laid in their dreamless sleep. On
tiny mound, sweet mistress Nan placed
the heart-shaped wreath of violets and
no one but she, the general and | un-
derstood why the poor creature, whose
miserable life was a lesson to all, the
brave, beautiful wife of the command

byel One last embraced
Promptly the order came and my
master shouldered me and marched to
the train In a few hours we were at
our destination and then knew what
war meant.
One night, my master was alone in
his tent and he talked aloud to him
self, and re-read one of the numerous
letters that came almost daily.
TON Meredith has enlisted and l
hear he will be in Virginia-his post
has been assigned him-he wears a
uniform but he doesn't compare with
my Ned So! Meredith was unsuc-
cessful-he has learned that his wealth
cannot buy love. / must be wary of
him-he is a dangerous boy and
wouldn't hesitate to commit any deed
through jealousy"
My young master was visibly dis
turbed
A few days later, sure enough, here
came Mr. Meredith, whom l remem-
bered as handling me quite contempt
uously when he called on my master
in Aurora He looked very handsome
in his regmentals, but his eyes were
cruel and hard under his gold-laced
cap.
An engagement, fierce and hot took
place as the sun fell on that long, not
day in July and ii resulted In a more
serious attack in the morning. The
slain and wounded were left on the
field as one gallant regiment moved
forward, and my dear master was one
OF the wounded. With me clasped in
his hand, he murmured in his dellr
ium, Mamie Nannie!"
In the confusion incidental to a bat
tie, Lieutenant Meredith had managed
to slip back and hurriedly glanced on
the poor fellows who were lately SO
full Of life and action. At last he saw
my master. Such a look OF hatred as
came over his face may / never again
see.
"Ah! there you are! Die! you viii
lain, and then your pretty Nan will
be more likely to come to my terms!"
With these words he plunged knife
In the flesh of my master. How l
cursed myself for my inanimate condi-
ton! Flinging the knife from him he
stole among the dead like the coward

My master was dead, knew, as he
became quiet after that one shrek of
agony.
When the ambulance corps came, his
body was taken to the dead-house, bit
some signs of life were observable and
he was removed TO the hospital.

my name on it on silver platter" he
feebly inquired.

has had a remarkable experience re-
Gently.
Mr.. Sullivan is 40 years of age and
has been a citizen of Pike County for
30 years. For two years, he has suffer-
ed much with kidney trouble and rheu-
matism. His shoulders and side were
very sore and stiff, and his back was
so bad he could hardly straighten up
at all. He had palpitation of the
heart, and a smothering which was
very distressing. He used three boxes
of Dodds Kidney Pills, and is as
strong and we'll as ever he was. He
pronounces his cure a miracle Mr..
Sullivan's statement of his case is
startling.
"A month ago / was a cripple. To-
day can do a hard days work every
day, and have not single ache or
pain"
Dodd's Kidney Pills have done some
wonderful cures in Indiana, but none
more miraculous than that in the case
OF Mr.. Sullivan.
