DOTTED FABRICS, COLORED PONGEE,
MOUSSELINE De SOLE, THREE FAYORlTES

Polka dotted fabrics OF all kinds are
as popular as they were several seasons
ago. Dark silk muslin, with polka
dots done in chenille. or in silk em-
broldery OF the same color, are in great
demand. and are attractive when trim
med with black Chantilly insertion.
Dark blue polka dot cotton muslins
always make up well, and arc fashion
able both for high and low cut waists,
with skirts made of the same goods
Sometimes these dark blue muslins are
trimmed with blue filot lace. as well as
with black thread lace, oftenor yoke

White Gowns En,eti1e

Among the white gowns, which are
always most effective upon occasions,
was an exquisite white yelling trim

basques were the long Eouis XVI. and
the sleeves showed a wealth of OPEN

QUEER MARRIAGES.
on SOME GREAT MEN

empire was dining at the house Of
Prince Menshikoff. He noticed one Of
the serving maids particularly, and,
though she was not handsome, she
caught the fancy of Peter Her name,

She had been a servant in the house OF
a Lutheran minister OF Marienburg,
and when that city was captured by
the troops of Russia she had been
taken prisoner by General Bauer, who
had passed her over TO the prince,
whose serf she was. The count po-
litely made present OF her TO the car
who eventually married her, renamed
/ her Catherine and she reigned after
him as Catherine I, empress Of all the
Russians.
Even more startling is the example
OF Sir GervaiBe Clifton, whose history

JUST MAKING BELIEVE"
One Way to Make This Dull Old World
Seem Rrighter

There is many failure OH the part
OF grown ups to comprehend the
mental processes Of their imaginative
superlors-the children. Some clumsy
person calls the most charming device
OF fancy another Of those naughty
fbs." BY that condemnation he sets
up a well nigh impassable barrier be-
tween himself and the childish dreamer.
Not long ago a grown up was aecost-
ed on the street by dainty maiden Of
four, who nodded a bright good morn
ing and then said, isn't there going to
be a wedding down there" pointing
across the square.
II think not said the obtuse adult.
81 haven't heard of any wedding
care you sure? think there's going
to be one" persisted the little maiden.
81 don't see any flowers or carriages
and guess you are mistaken" replied
the champion of duh fact.
Then the tiny pleader drew nearer,
and with an entreaung touch OF her
hand and voice lowered out of hear
ing of the fairies she breathed:
"IltuNt NNl lhtlt NNhlr " w =" W.
ding. I'm just making believe
Could the power of imagination go
further? Gould there be a Simpler de-
vice for turning this dull world into n

Few .postors lake Vacation

After working hard all the year, it
is natural to suppose that physicians
would take a much-needed vacation,
but such is not the case Worry few Of
he local doctors can leave their fields
bf labor to enjoy a week or two in the
Mountains or by the seashore. They
hre too busy, and their work
requires their presence all the time.
However. there are a few lucky ones
who manage to escape from their tire
some duties and get away to some
pleasure resort to spend a week or two.
Among the fortunate number Of viii
|mington physicians who will enjoy a
relaxation for a time is DR.. l.. Kittin-
ger Although he is very busy, he
hopes to get of week or two during
he latter part of August to go to Dub
an Gap, White Sulphur Springs, Pa.
|This is his fayorite resort, and he Wis
Its there every summer. DR.. James A.
Draper, Jr., thinks there is nothing
better for restoring health and activity
Ito a man than a week or two during
august on the great lakes. This is his
|favorite place, and the doctor says
'this summer will see him there
DR.. II. ID. Cock finds pleasure on Long
Island. so that he can spend a day at
|any of the several seaside towns or go
TO New York DR.. Cook intends to
spend at least one week there during
august
Dr. M. +. COrkran Will spend about
one month at Ocean Grove. He hopes
to return in better health and be ready
to assume his duties for another year.
DR. H. w Briggs is of the ODiniOn
that a week or two in the Catskills
fwith daily rambles over the mountain:
i is more conducive to health than any
thing he knows OF. DR.. Briggs in
tends to enjoy such a life for at leas
Home week in September.
Several other physicians hope to be
. able to take a vacation. but as yet the!
cannot find the time to do so. and dc
not care to arrange for one unless the!
are sure they can get away.

BASEBALL TO HELP
CAUSE OP CHARITY
Why Not Have Game Between
Newspaper Men and VIII
miRtOl Preachers?

Wilmington has the baseball fever,
and while such is the case the squirting
editor of the Evening Journal suggests
that the newspaper men of the city
form a team and play the ministers of
Wilmington. III they refuse TO play, let
the teachers or doctors step forth. The
physicians are elated over their recent
victory, but the newspaper men could
snow them the art Of baseball playing.
If a game We're arranged il could be
played on enclosed grounds and a small
sum charged for admittance The pro-
ceeds would be given TO the free ice
fund OF the Associated Charities. Money
Is needed to carry on this good work of
charity, and this would be a good way
TO help.
The sporting editor Of the Evening
Journal is at present engaged in try
ing to arrange for such a contest aud
would aladly receive suggestions on
the subject
The subject is worthy Of attention.
and Il is hoped it will be a success. IL
IS generally known that the newspaper
men of this city are sufficiently inter-
ested in charitable work 90 do all they
can to assist. There is no doubt that
they will gladly cooperate with each
other in this worthy cause. The
sporting editors are at present con-
ferring with each other ON the subject
The newspaper men feel sure they
could combine and defeat any other
team in the city. excepting one or two.
Men from Baltimrrc are prttlng IN
