For Non payment Of Interest.

-'rhe Union American Church and grave

vertlsed to be sold by sheriff sudham az

II Is understood that the mortgage hold

will DE made up before the day Of sale
however.
Some OF she trustees of the Union Amer

was advertised 20 be sold by the sheriff
The trustees consulted well-lSnowr

THE VOGUE OF WHITE

a mass OF frills from waist to hem.
Linens. more especially the coarse crash
qualities. are disputing the field with mus
Inns. The dealers in this fabric are pre-
pairing for an ever increased demand next
season, and the lengths Of linens which
may be picked up for a triie at the sum-
mer sales are almost certain TO prove
good investments.
Linen gowns are taking the place OF
homespun to a great extent, and are
thought to be quite as warm as wool Tor
seaside and mountain wear. A dark blue
linen gown IN the shade usually asso-
ciated with the workman's blouse makes
a most satisfactory addition to the holiday
.trousseau. Such frock is extremely ef-
fective when decorated with white cord
and white ball buttons, with a little white
lawn falling from the wrists.
A foreign dressmalzing establishment
has launched a new sleeve to the pleate'
bolero. which has been seized upon witt
delight for linen gowns. 1t has only on
seam. and is quite yard and a hal
wide. IL Is sewed into the armhole wit
three boxpleats. and caught at the wris
with a Directoire cum that opens at n
side and shows a double frlll Of lace {
lawn.
In the matter Of colors yellow is OF
! which appears to be coming into promn
ence. For the last few weeks yellow HI
run through a gamut Of delicate grad
! tions from deep orange to pale past
= straw tone. but perhaps the smartest no
. is struck in canary yellow, tempered by
E suspicion of pale blue.

Tea I.iil Making a Hints

If any one knows the correct way OF
making tea, the Chinese ought TO. An
authority Of the Flowery Land-an au-
thority on tea making, that is-says
that water should be allowed to be-
come quiet" before being poured on
the fragrant leaves: which means that
it should not be used while still bub-
bling and boiling. He thinks the steep
ing viii be found much more satisfac-
tory il this rule is observed.
Another connoisseur advocates the
grinding Of tea leaves like that Of the
coffee bean, saying that thereby its fla
vor and strength are both greatly in
creased. To this Dulverized tea, q very
little boiling water should be added
and after an interval Of ten minutes the
rest of the water poured on.

blood, rust colored or even like prune
juice. The speech is interrupted,
hesitating, with frequent pauses and
abdominal respiration. This disease
oftentimes is neglected by people
thinking that they have only symptoms
of pleurisy or a cold. 1t is far better
for person to consult physician and
find out the true condition Of the case.
for by so doing serious illness may
many times be warded off. Pneumonia,
pleurisy and bronchitis should never
be treated with household remedies.
A person might think he had recovered
from one of these three. and yet de-
velop tuberculosis. Many a life has
been lost by neglecting what was
termed "only a cold" If properly at
tended to the ailment can be relieved
in two OF three days and leave no bad
effects.
The sudden changes in our climate
In the past three or four years have
caused a great deal of sickness, as peo-
pie have been apt to wear too thin
garments. The climate of today calls
for three changes daily. Our heavy
clothes are not uncomfortable in the
morning or at night, so it is import
ant that a person who is. travelling
should go prepared with proper proteo-
tion from the weather. While it ma,
sometimes be inconvenient to do so. il
