TRUST ASSUMING SHAPE.
British Shipping Combination Believed
 To Be Assured.

London, June 1.-The newspapers here continue to discuss the British shipping combine as though the project had as sumed more tangible shape than is yet admitted by those whc are in position to know the facts.
 The Westminster Gazette today inti- mates that the Cunard Line will not join in forming the proposed British Cana dian line and says the colonial secre- tary, MT. Chamberlain. favors subsidiz- ing the latter project rather than the Cunard plan, which Is more severely di- rected against the Morgan shipping com blne.
 According to tho Westminster Gazette the capital of the Canadian British line will be e1O,OOO,0OO, of which .aS 900 will be expended on six twenty-five knot ves- sells and a dozen freight steamers The promoters, it Is added, anticipate a total subsidy of G500,0O0, besides an imperial guarantee of interest on the capital, amounting to 93000OO yearly.

w and SOCIETY

The Rochambeau visitors departed from New York leaving Halie Erminie Rives. the novelist, to enjoy the distinc- tion Of being the only American whom the Comtesse de Roehambeau the af- fable and kindly feminine head of the delegation of honor, has entertained Zen famille." She sent a special invitation to Miss Rives and received her in her own private suite at the Waldorf-Astoria
 The story of Rochampeaus coming with his fleet to the aid of Washington and the part which the French diplomacy and money played in the successful out come of the American revolution forms the core and motive of Miss Rivess novel, Hearts Courageous, and 1t was a reading of this that impelled Mime. Ro- chambeau to send one of her husbands s suite to ask call from the young south ern author.
 The comtesse will carry with her copy of the novel, aut ographed, which she will convey to President Loubet of France.
 Miss Rives has accepted an invitation from the comtesse to visit her In her home in Paris.
 An eastern exchange says
 Miss Dainty is spick and span from her well-kept shining head to her well-kept feet
 With her smart tailor-made gown she never wears gay flowers CT nodding plumes. A beautifully tied bow of heavy silk upon straw hat IS more chic. keeps its style and is suitable for any occasion save a formal one
 She would not be seen with a pair of rundown heels or knotted shoestrings, when the heels may be strengthened for a few pennies and fresh strings be pur- chased for dime.
 Her belonging are always perfection. She keeps her gloves spotless with gaso- line, which, being a sensible woman she uses with discretion.
 Her wells are rolled upon a veil pad Her neck ribbons carefully laundered for there is nothing so effective as soap and water for keeping them fresh.
 Miss Dainty always has enough hosiery to change daily. She also has house slip pers, which not only are good looking but rest the feet.
 About herself personally, she Is most careful. Her hair to suit her must be like a golden fleece or a midnight glory Brushes are common place vehicles, for they can make or mar daintiness.
 She drops a perfumed wafer into her daily bath or a few drops of benzoin, which makes her flesh smell like flower.
 To reek or perfume Is vulgar, but a suggestion of some delicate odor Is ex- quisitely feminine. Miss Dainty initiates Bernhardt by putting just a drop upon her tips.
 She never wears chatelaines, diamonds, gorgeous lorgnette chains or jeweled bar cites while shopping. 'Tis these little things that show whether or not the wo- man Is a gentlewoman.

GONE FIVE YEARS.
OONE I'VE YEAHS. When Coffee Left the Troubles Dis-
 appeared.

It Is hard to make people understand that coffee really will do business for them if they stick to 1t long enough. It is almost a certainty that some little symptoms of disease, stomach trouble, or kidney or heart trouble caused by coffee drinking will ultimately develop into some fixed organic disease unless the cause of the disturbance is removed. An illus tration may not be amiss.
 A lady in Kearney Neb., says, q used coffee a great many years. Gradually my health broke down. I had dyspepsia and was extremely nervous. l passed many sleepless nights but, like many others did not know what was the cause of my invaldism.
 Finally the trouble centered into fat ty tumor Just over the stomach and in the region of the heart, causing acute pain in the stomach and a spasmodic ac- ton of the heart. A surgical operation was deemed necessary. but after all the preparations were made a good, old hon. est doctor suggested that 1 take treat ment little longer and leave off coffee and take Postum and some Grape Nuts Breakfast Food.
 l began on Postum and had 1t made properly by long boiling and found it delicious and drank two cups the first morning. After two weeks l discovered a marked change for the better In five months my supposed tumor had disap- peared, my headaches were gone and di- geston wholly restored. My heart only gave me trouble a few times. That was five years ago. I have been a steady user of Postum ever since and am a new creature today. Am in strong and vigor- ous health and know exactly how to &C., count for 1t.
 The ignorance of people on the subject of coffee is a constant wonder to me- al- though at one time, of course, I was just as much fin the dark as any one could be- going along year after year putting into my body the poison that was killing me and never knowing It." Name given by Postum Co.,. Battle Creek, Mich.

ENROLLING RECRUITS.
U. s. Officer Said to Be at Work In
 Great Britain.

New York, June 11.-It has been stated In the lobby of the House of Commons says Herald dispatch from London that an officer of the United States army is at the present time in London enrolling re- cruits for service in the Philippines from the ranks of the seasoned soldiers who are returning from South Africa.
 The matter will be mentioned next week in the House of Commons In the form of a question by one of the mem bers.
 United States army officials pronounce the rumor ridiculous and absurd, espe- cially in view of the fact that the Am erican army Is fast being reduced in numbers In the far east, and the soldiers are coming home by regiments
