The new portion of girls dress which is in evidence just now is called the "singlet;" evidently the odd name is used to distinguish it from the ''doublet." The singlet is a species of vest. not waistcoat, however, as it fastens in the back. The singiet is the extension of a guimpe and shield from throat to waist, and is invented to serve with the open-fronted or low-necked blouses, now so much worn. Look at a child's ready-made sailor suit and you recognize as singlet the sleeveless under-body with plastron down the front, to which the child's skirt is usually stitched. Of course, a young lady's singlet or that worn by lady has not skirt fastened to it. The singlet may be braided, tucked or otherwise trimmed. It is a feature of the smart new bathing dresses.-Detroit Free Press.

 could secure a club with which to dis patch the reptile it had disappeared. The next day at the same hour the snake came for another drink, and that was repeated the third and fourth days, but the last time it was attacked from the rear by big black Thomas cat that makes its hcme at Testers livery barn, next door. It was a lively fight for a few seconds, but the cat was too much for the snake, although it was fully four feet long, and the reptile made a shoot for the rear of the office The cat was after it like a streak of lightning, but the snake. found a hole in the brick wall and dis appeared under the building. That was two weeks ago. Before that time the printing office was overrun with mice, but since then there hasn't been a mouse about the place. Any of our readers who are troubled with mice are cordially invited to come and borrow our snake for a few days"

OFFICERS MUST STUDY.
Adjutant General Says Many of Them

Adjutant General Says Many of Them
 Are Deficient
 Adiutant General Cole has issued orders prescribing weekly drills for each company, hospital corps, section of signal corps, machine gun battery, platoon of light artillery and Troop A, c. N. G., from November to May 31, 1902. Commander Averill of the naval battalion is also directed to order weekly drills of the divisions of his command.
 Brigadier General Frost is instructed to direct commanding officers of regi- ments, the First Separate company, (colored), Battery A. Light Artillery, machine gun battery and Troop A, to ''at once" institute lyceum for offi- cers of their organizations at which the Service of Security and Information" will be taken up and studied systemati- cally and thoroughly. The adjutant general says:
 During the field exercises of 1901 it was evident that many officers had but little conception of this very essential part of their education. An officer is not qualified to be in command of men until he has mastered, at least, the principles embodied in subject me1i- toned There should be a meeting of officers at least once week, and those who have made a speciality of this study regardless of rank should be di- rected to prepare papers, or give lee lures at each meeting; commencing with the elementary part and building up; thereby educating those who are not so well informed. and creating an interest in this important study. In connection herewith. and as an illus tration, problem in minor tactics may be given and worked out on the black board. or otherwise. as the judgment of the commanding officer may die tate. Commanding officers of First Separate company, machine gun bat tery, Battery A, Light, Troop A, may if they so elect, after receiving permis- sion from the officer in charge, direct the officers of their respective com mand to attend the infantry lyceum nearest the home station. Every off, cer is expected to attend the lyceum, unless excused by the commanding off cer.
 The requirements of military cour- tesy and discipline will be strictly en- forced at all times. At the recent en campment a very lax discipline was noted in few organizations, which cannot be tolerated. The first duty of soldier is to obey, and while it may not be practical or expedient to apply the remedies used in the reg ular service, the national guard can arrive at state of discipline second to none by having it's members edu- cated to such an esprit -de-corps and pride in their organization, that it will result in feeling of contention or em ulation, to make said organization at tain the high water mark of excel lent
 The commandant of any organiza- tion that cannot enforce his own or ders or the orders of his superior off l cers, or an organization that has no dis cipline nor respect for it's officers, will be considered in a state of inefficiency, and recommended for disbandment. The national guard is a preparatory school for the sterner duties of the soldier, when he is called upon to fight | for, and keep the peace, and any or
