EVENING FUN.
A Novel soap-BubbIe Party-TriclNs
with Numbers.

Nothing gives greater pleasure, es-
pecially during the long evenings of
winter, than the ability to perform
some simple and yet mysterious tricks.
or to be able to suggest some puzzles
which seem to be brain twisters."
Quite a number of soap-bubble par
ties have been given, and the bubble
blowing will always be popular. A
novelty may be introduced by some
member of a soap bubble party which
will mystify all the others if the party
doing it can keep his secret. Let the
one who is going to introduce the now
city fill the bowl of his pipe, of course
secretly, with cotton wool soaked in
gasoline He takes his place at the
table and proceeds to blow bubbles
in the ordinary manner. but here is
this difference, the bubbles which are
blown from his pipe will be found to
explode in a bright flame when APP
preached with a light, to the aston
shment of the others, whose bubbles
are only watery vapor, upon which
light has no effect except to dissolve
them.
Another interesting trick can be
played on the same evening because
pipes are being used. Get two empty
and clean pipes like those used for

Pommeranian dog of full growth

pounds. Though the muff was not
over size the owners hands and the
wee dog were not crowded therein for
space. Up-to-date this is apparently
the tiniest morsel of developed dog
flesh that has ever come to the coun-
try and, as the proud possessor inn

This is no unnecessary precaution,

the latter being closed by buttons, hid

very narrow ribbon.
Some of the newest corsets form
arches over the hips, rendering them
stouter at that point and giving more
freedom of movement. In others the
material is replaced low down over the
hips by broad pieces of elastic tissue
fashioned in the required shape.
Above the waistline all are of mod

low. 1t is only below that the length
is extreme. This is always the case
among corsets designed to be worn
with Empire toilets, as here the figure

A trans Atlantic steamship company
has recently aired a somewhat novel
grievance against the women who take
passage in it's ships. The proneness of
women to stick a pin wherever con-
venient has proved a serious matter to
one company. The line decided some
time ago to place the most modern air
filled rubber mattresses in the berths
of the best rooms on two of the biggest
ships. Recently the stewards were
kept busy at the completion of each
trip with blowing up with air dozens
of mattresses that had collapsed from
some unknown cause. 1t took the
officials of the line some hours to dis
cover the cause of the failure of the
mattresses to maintain their proper
condition Hatpins, breastpins, every
known kind of pin had done the mis-
chief.
zone advantage of these mattresses
said the manufacturer, was that they
were intended as life preservers or
small RATS should the emergency arise.
Give me a decent-sized hatpin If you
want to see me knock the ambition out
of the average life preserver that de-
ponds upon air. The woman tourists
simply stabbed those mattresses to
DEATH"
The steamship company now has this
notice attached tie the door of every
stateroom: please do not stick pins
in the berth cushions and mattresses.

Why is it, asks the Chicago Record
Herald, that a girl so dislikes to be
seen carrying a luncheon when she
goes to work in the morning? What
ever the reason-and it probably would
not be far to seek-it is certain that
she does dislike it and devises all sorts
of schemes for making it appear that
she is carrying anything under the sun
except a luncheon.ess
One faultlessly' attired girl takes her
collars to be Numbered every day; at
least she carries a. small, square laun-
dry box each morning. 1t is never
wrapped in a paper and is tied with a
most prosaic cord. In contrast to this
is the exceptionally dainty parcel
which another girl carries. 1t might
contain a gift, so exquisitely is it wrap
ped But it has exactly the shape of
two square slices of bread, with per-
haps bit of meat between.
a blonde with smart pompadour is
apparently planning to ruin her diges-
ton with a daily box of bonbons. But
the box occasionally betrays it's owner
by emitting a faint odor of cheese or of
gingerbread.
The girl with the decorous looking
paint box would never have been sus-
pected if she had not inadvertently
opened it one day to show a friend a
new and delicious sort of wafer which
she had discovered at the grocer's.
Equally innocent looking was the
music roll which a demure girl bal
anced carefully across her knee, but
the view through it was obstructed
midway by a brown paper parcel, dis
covered only as she rose to leave the
car.
Several girls carried fancy silk OF
leather hand bags, which they guarded
carefully from being crushed when the
car became crowded. But this would
not have formed conclusive evidence
if one of the bags had not been sud
denly caught between the owners arm
and the broad back of a man who lost
his balance as the car stopped with a
jerk at a crossing.
Horrors" exclaimed the girl to a
friend, as she looked at the bag in
dsmay. Imagine that chocolate
eclaire!"

THERE'S NOTHING NEW
 IN THE C. F. & l. FIGHT
It is Likely the Gates People Will
 Move Next Week.

Denver, Col. August 21.-The situa- tion in the fight for control of the Colorado Fuel and Iron company is practically unchanged tonight. Joel F. Waffle, one of the attorneys for the Gates people, said tonight that an ap- plication would be made for the disso- lution of the injunction issued yester- day by Judge Mullins of the district court restraining the holding the stock holders meeting, but he did not indi- cate just when such action would be taken. The practice of Colorado re- quires five days notice to accompany such application. which would bring the matter up for consideration some time next week should the application be filed tomorrow.
 Judge Mullins is arranging for a short vacation in the mountains and evidently does not anticipate that he will be interrupted by any legal steps in the Colorado Fuel and Iron com pany case. The entire Gates party has left Denver for the east, and MT. Vaille was not aware of any intention on the part of Gates to return to Denver in the near future. At the headquarters of the Colorado Fuel and Iron com pany today the usual conditions pre- vailed and representative of the As sociated Press was dismissed with the statement that there was nothing new.
