had much to do with the setback to the

obaracterizes bull movements, or is
the elimination of the rise remains to

however, there still seems to be reason
for a further rise in prices. Many of

Now that an official investigation

secretary of the navy to get every
possible fact having any bearing on
the Santiago campaign over which
disputes have arisen before the court

Officers travelling to the United

Summer COstumes-Dainty

Broad-shaped collars are worn with
many thin gowns, says the Chicago
Daily News.
Good advice to the woman who
wants variety at little outlay is to
lay in stock of lawn, lace and en-
bribery collars in white, black, coffee
and ecru.
Red parasOls sing such a gay note
along the highways and .byways of
summer resorts that they are chosen
by many because of their decorative
possibilities.
Belt buckles are pointed downward
to give the fashionable long waist eff
feet. Some belts of stitched satin have
small buckles in the back also, by
way of variety.
An excellent way TO bring skirts up
to date is to flounce them with shaped
fiounces up to the knee. Cloth may be
flounced with glace silk or vice versa.
For evening wear black pin-spot net,
chiffon or net may be used.
There is a fad for some very ele-
CANT white suede shoes, but it is ever
"a dangerous thing to play with foot

for the high-heeled shoe with a big

WOMEN OF POISE.
They Indulge in Few ExcIamatiOns
and Are Never Given to
Gushing.

The dictionary defines poise as "the
state or quality of being balanced;
equilibrium; equipoise; hence, fgura-
lively, equanimity; rest" Poise in
stills grace and symmetry into the
workings of the mind, just as physical
exercise does into the movements of
the body. 1t is rarely a natural en-
GOwment, but may be cultivated to the
point where it becomes second nature.
Poise always carries with it a sugges-
ton of reserved force, and the woman
who wishes to acquire it must learn
to husband her energy as well as her
time; she must not fritter away words.
moments or emotions, writes Ina Bre-
WORT Roberts, in Woman's Home
Companion.
The woman of poise INDUCES in a
few EXPLANATIONS or superlatives, and
does not waste enthusiasm over tri-
fles. She is gracious, but never gush-
ing. and she has acquired the habit
of listening attentively, not awaiting
with ill-concealed eagerness d pause
in the conversation to enable her to
rush in and take the floor. The wom-
an of poise never fingers after her
good-by is spoken; never, in fact. un-
der any circumstances, talks long
while standing. She does not expert
ence the difficulty too many people
have of taking leave gracefully. She

and is off to the pleasure or duty that
awaits her. You do not fnd,out all
there is to know about the woman the
first time you meet her; you become
acquainted with her by degrees, and
grow gradually into her friendship.

which are very fuzzy, and at the end
of each bit there is a sticky subs lance.
When the plant opens its mouth it
is evident that the trap is then set, for
upon any insect entering it the lips
close upon it at once, forcing it to the
gummy substance of the throat. This
substance has properties similar to
those contained in the gastric juices
of the human stomach, which help to
decompose and digest the food. When
so digested the food resolves itself
into liquid which is carried all over
the plant to nourish and revive it.
The most marvellous thing about this
newly discovered species, says the
New York World is that it can digest
such food as small morsels of beef. fish
and egg gelatine, some of which,
dropped into the open leaf, were re-
tanned and apparently digested. At
the same time anything of starchy or
fatty substance the leaf or plant is
not able to retain. 1t does not, there
fore, close its lips upon it, and if al
lowed to remain in the mouth the
plant will decay.

In addition to the expense of bring.
