The WarIike Maoris.

AS was to be expected the Maoris,
who have been clamoring ever since
the war began to be allowed to take
part in it, are annoyed because the
color rule seems to be broken by the
employment of Australian black-track-
ers for service in South Africa. The
Maoris now say that they would be
glad to go merely as scouts or track
ers. but this would hardly do, for il
there were any fighting going on in
his neighborhood the Maori could new,
err be kept out of the thick Of it. 1t
is said. indeed, that many natives
have already succeeded in smuggling
themselves into the New Zealand con.
| tingents, a feat easy enough OF per
Torrance. for the educated Maori
speaks English with a pure accent
and his light color would carry hin
through among a crowd of sun-tan
ned white men.-London Chronicle.

AIGRETTEs VERY POPULAR.

We have frequently insisted on the
Importance given to aigrette in the
new models. Milliners are 10Y plac-
ing orders for aigrette to match the
colors of straws-cream yellow, beige,
brown, light blue, pink and red, not
forgetting black, perhaps more used
than any. There is no very great de-
mand for mazo and ostrich tips
lust now, as the millinery world is
divided in respect to them. some OF
the first houses reserving them for
later on, while others continue to Ia
vor them. The MaisoL Lewis may be
reckoned among the latto> Many OF
their straw models are trineied with

brim or fastened underneath. ~
combinations with feathers, draperles
of tulle and lace are preferred to flow

Here, too, are seen fringes Of os'
trich used with effect in the border

circular arrangements Of ostrich tips
that will be used to trim straw hats
the tips being usually chosen the
same color as the straw.-Millinery

WOMEN AS ~"FADDISTS."

In the case of the person new con

to remain young and beautiful IS Gag

Enthusiastically believed in. Just now
it is the hair that is the object of soli-

BULL MoOsE AT BAY.
slgass . Pack % Wslves In Sight O
Two WoOdsmen.

Two WoOdsmen.
Last Friday William Burnett and
]. J. Gaynor, two Duluth explorers,
wandered at some distance from theis
claims, thirty-fve miles back Of Chica-
30 bay, In Cook county. to look at GER
tain lands. While t~rudging along
they came face to face with a great
Dull moose. Neither of the men had O
sun. The men realized that the moose
meant mischief, and they Skinned up
q balsam. The moose came up and
paved the showshoes and seemed dis
posed to await developments.
Nearly three hours had passed,
when a pack Of twenty wolves eau
tiously approached the tree. The bull
moose was game, and signlfied by his
actions that he would fight. The
wolves were at first q little digcon-
certed at the turn in affairs, but ap-
parently reasoned that IL they could
not get q couple Of men for supper
they would be polite enough not to
grumble, and take what was set before
Them, which was moose-a living
mountain Of moose. The wolves ap-
preached the moose from all sides, and
then began a battle, the like Of which
few men have ever witnessed. He
struck at the wolves with his forefeet
and antlers and kicked at them with
his hind feet. The wolves evidently all
had in view the idea Of hamstring'
Ing the moose. A certain number
would engage the moose at the head
but most Of them were swapping o.
the hind legs Of the great game AMI
NAL. Mr.. Burnett says that the agtl'
tty Of the moose was remarkable, ane
he was as stfOng, apparently, as a 10
connective. He caught and flung the
wolves about like chips, and howls O
anger and pain rung through th'
woods. At last, while making a mai
lunge to toss some Of the wolves, thu
moose shed his antlers. After on
startled look, when he realized that h
had lost his head weapon, the moos'
turned ana fed at top speed.-St. Loui

BENEFITS OF

Next to bodily cleanliness, exercise
NAV be reckoned as the greatest aid
to beauty. In fact, exercise is almost
necessary to cleanliness, for it is a
great incentive to perspiration, which
is natures way of throwing the i'm
purities of the body to the surface OF
the skin, from where they are then
removed by the use of water. Open
air exercise should be taken every
day. but according to strength. One
should return home after walking,
riding or cycling with a sense Of being
p~leasantly fatigued, but without any
feeling of exhaustion. Exercise should
he taken regularly, and. if possible,
dumbbells should be used night and
morning. The corset should not be
worn while exercising with dumb
/ bells. Skipping is an excellent exer.
| else for the figure. and 1t Is OF
which our grandmothers were fond
It is usual with children to throw the

THE REVIVAL OF R

Coral has also been revived, both in
long, rough cut strands" and in carV-
ed designs for brooches, sash clasps,
rendants and other ornaments. For
children and young girls nothing
looks fresher or more youthful than
coral when worn with the sheer white
dress fabrics and open embrolderles
displayed for summer wear. Unlike
pearls or brilliant gems, when worn
on the neck and arms it brings out
the beauty of the complexion instead
of emphasizing the "dinginess' and
flaws of an unhealthy skin.
