How much water can a horse drink
without feeling any Ill effects? Here is
a question that several people connect
ed with a KenSington mill are asking
themselves. A man left bis horse and
buggy in front Of the office for half an
hour the other day. first tipping the
boy nickel to give the horse a bucket
Of water. Soon after the messenger
went out, and. seeing the horse, with
It's little bonnet, getting dry, he wet the
headgear and gave the animal second
bucket Of water. A clerk going out for
lunch was moved with compassion 10

by a travelling salesman. who offered
the apparently thirsty animal fourth
bucket The horse drank them all, as
we'll as a fifth bucket held up TO him b.
a benevolent boy. Finally the proprie-
tor came out and exclaimed. That
horse must have some water" He was
told that it had already had five buckt
cts, but said: mo matter. Give 1t g
chance at a sixth. 1t won't drink uN
less 1t wants It," The horse drank a
sixth bucket Of water and still lives

Hot weather Collars.

In hot weather the stilf collar, the
tight collar and the high collar must
be discarded II we would live. New
Workers have invented a substitute
which seems to us the best thing yet.
To make It buy 10 Inches OF oil over
embroidery In striped pattern or the
cheaper woven material which comes
In pattern OF lace and insertion. Cut
this so that you have n strip 10 inches
long OF a lace design with insertion on
each side. Fit this loosely but exactly
to the neck by making n plat In the
center and one under each ear. Along
these plalts on the wrong side sew
white featherbone of the narrowest
width and just long enough not to
show above the collar edges. Hem all
around neatly, put hooks and eyes ut
the turned IN ends at the back and
finish with a frill Of tiny fine yaleH-
ciennes edglng. The lacy band Of one
thickness OF stuff admits air TO the
throat, and the featherbone solves the
problem OF how so fimsy n material
may be held upright and saved from
whiting with the heat.

New York,s Good Example.

The New York prison authorities did
right in formally abandoning the rule
under which convicts were compelled
to march In the lock step.
1t was long ago demonstrated that
the after effects upon conyicts Of this
method OF marching was for the worse.
While it remained true that hardened
offenders were sometimes detected
through the shutting gait which result
ed from the "lock," IL also became evil
dent that this was not the limit OF its
influence
Men not yet hardened to crime. but
doing penance for their first offense,
acquired the same noticeable shuttle
and when they emerged from the pris-
on walls with the determination to re-
turn to an honest course of life fire.
quently failed of employment because
of that prison brand.
The old legal notion was that IL was
better for ninety and nine guilty men
to escape than for one innocent man to
suffer, and upon that principle It is bet
ter that ninety and nine old offenders
should get away than that the lock
step should render 1t impossible for one
repentant to redeem what was possibly
his only error-Philadeiphia Inquirer.

Trimmed With Flowers.

White hats Of flowers become daily
more fashionable. White poppies, white
or red geranlums, pansies, roses and
leaf hats are the most often repeated,
and the general tendency seems. after
using all sorts OF materials in one hat,
TO keep as strictly as possible now to
one material for each hat. There are
entire straw hats caught merely by a
buckle, hats Of moussellne de sole and
Of tulle twisted in a graceful sweeping
turban shape and untrlmmed save for
knot Of velvet or a clasp OF rhine
stones.
Among the seasons more fantastic
costumes seen at the races are the
hand painted dresses. The undersilk
slip is painted in large water colof
flowers. The overdress Is Of the thin
nest, most transparent muslin.

CHOICE MISCELLANY
The soldier and His Clothing.


At a banquet in Manila General
Chaffee. Just back from the campaign
in China, made a speech in which he
deplored the careless dress of the
American troops and urged the officers
to employ good tailorS so as TO set a
good example in the matter of dress to
the men, This criticism 10y General
ChafIee, the war department says, is
undoubtedly deserved
European officers are sticklerS for
proper dress when on duty, and the
farther they are from home the more
careful do they become with their
clothing. Not so with the American
soldier when he gets away. Then the
western idea of careless. swinging gait
asserts itself in all things.
The war department officials say
they wish Americans would be little
more careful in this matter OF dress
but there is no suggestion that any new
regulations are TO be put into effect.
The men are all furnished with good
well fitting clothes. The American sol
der is clad in a uniform that is more
expensive and better fitting when new
than the uniform Of the soldier Of any
other nation. The whole trouble is that
he does not wear II properly He sim
ply will not keep his coat buttoncd
when the weather gets too warm for
him. The officers sometimes try to
keen the men spruccd up. but officers
have a good many things to look after.
and this alone would be a great task.
So the American soldier swaggers
along. careless and independent and
his officer is proud of him even beside
the nattiest soldiers in the world.

American Divorces In DrItI.h Court.

tain a divorce after few months resi-
deuce. Returning to Canada, some Of
these have remarked In the belief that
the divorce was valid. Now the de-

RusselIs case is that only British
courts can annul a marriage contract
ed under British law. As police Off

persons can lay information in bigamy

ried on the strength Of United States
divorces will not be happy one should
