good thing to plant about the piazza of the summer house, for it is obnoxious to flies and discouraging mosquitoes. Not many flies will cross the window sill where geraniums are growing and a plentiful supply of lavender in the house will drive away mosquitoes also.
 
 Handsome effects for sofa pillows are obtained by darning huclsaback, the we'll known towel material. Huckaback, or 'huck, as it is popularly called, comes now in a great variety of dainty colors and tints. such as ecru, reseda. old rose. tan, Indian red. violet. etc. Tan makes a suitable background material, as it is warm in tone yet not too bright to take a design worked in gray silks. A beauti- ful pillow is of tan huck embroidered in conventionalized fleur-dels in shades of purple. The space between the flowers and the flowing scroll edge that borders the cushion is darned. The effect in en- hanced by a ruffle of shaded purple satin ribbon which finishes the edge
 Because some one else differs from you, has other tastes and habits, do not fan cy that person affected and obstinate.

 FIGHT BETWEEN EAGLES.
A Gray Attempts to Rob Bald of His
 Breakfast.

From the Washington Star
 On a recent evening a small party of gentlemen, most of whom had tinges of sporting proclivites in their blood, were
 discussing the subject of chicken fight ing and generally rcgretting its decad
 ence as bright feature in the realm of sport. An old farmer from Rappahan- mock county, Na., broke into the conver- sation.
 "Gentlemen." said he ''in my time have seen some bang-up chicken fights; some be-yu-ti-ful ones but the greatest fight 1 ever saw between birds in all my born days was a contest between a bald eagle and a gray eagle near my old place in Rappahannock.
 This fight took place on the banks of the river. l couldn't forget 1t if l lived to be as old as Methuselah. 1 was the only spectator and saw the struggle from start to finish The bald eagle had caught a muskrat, and was about to eat 1t for breakfast, when the gray eagle
 scared down and attempted to rob the
 other of his prey. Then commenced the combat, and how the feathers flew! They fought with wings, beaks and tall ons.. and 1 could hear the talons crack
 when they struck and tore each other. l l ne SbHluS udut NN tntll WliRS bS they buffeted one another were like explosions 1 of musketry while their screams and i yells sounded demoniacal The battle
 lasted fully fifteen minutes, and wound
 up with victory with old baldy. who
 drove the gray eagle away and then re-
 sumed his interrupted breakfast. 'Oh, yes, there are great many eagles 1 up in my part of the state" said the old l agriculturist. in reply to a question.
 There are plenty of high rocks and lofty
 trees wherein they build their nests. We farmers do not give them any latitude. however. Whenever one of these big 1 birds is seen soaring about the poultry l yard. or, in fact. anywhere on the farm. 1 it's Johnnie get your gun, because It's not infrequently happens that good-sized | chickens. young lambs. little pigs are
 carried away by them. l know n gentle
 man whose little son, boy about six 1 years of age. was attacked by an eagle. | and but for the promptness of some of i the farm hands in coming to his rescue, 1 the child would have been seriously in- l jured beyond a doubt"

East Lake Juniors,

East Lake, September 19.-(Special)- East Lake council No. Il, Junior Order United American Mechanics held it's regular semi monthly meeting last Tues day night. There was a good attendance and owing to a reconsideration of the proposed new bylaws there was consid- erable enthusiasm.

Mrs. BiSelOW's Story.

imagined when her husband refused to give her money to buy new dresses with North, the story tells us, had one fault that no woman ever forgives; he was stingy. He had an income of 94,000 d year, and yet he disputed every trivial item of the household accounts and he considered that Gl00 a year was enough for his wife's dresses.
 Her soul was sick She went out to Kew Gardens and there she met Clement Moorake and had buns, crosses, jams all sorts of lovely things with him in the tea place. Perhaps the reader will be pleased with the conversation of the two over the tea, and will sympathize with Athea's trouble. The frigid husband broke in upon the pair at the moment of their first and only kiss. Althea certainly suffered very severely for that single n- discretion. For our own part. we wish that the incident had not been illustrat- ed. because in the picture Altheas white

It has seemed to us little curious that she should have thought that Clement Moor lake, the sculptor, was the man to con- sole her. but we have read novels enough to question the taste of no heroine.
 It is made known of Althea North that her husband was addicted to mountain climbing and yachting, and that he was too cold to know how to cherish a yearn ing wife properly. She was "one of those unlucky girls who was born for love and nothing else" and her feelings may be

ThnroInh


Washington, June 26. = President
Roosevelt yesterday sent a letter to
Attorney General Knox suggesting
that he appoint special assistants to
assist in examining and prosecuting
all charges against officials in the
postal service. He says:
There can be no greater offense
against the government than breach
of trust on the part of public official
or the dishonest management of his
office. and, Of course, every effort must
be exerted to bring such offenders to
punishment by the utmost rigor OF the
law The district attorney Of the Dis
trict OF Columbia has faithfully and
zealously seconded the efforts Of the
postoftice department in this matter,
but the amount of work in the office
is such as to make it difficult, with
out reglecting other important public
duties, to devote all the time neces-
sary to the prosecution OF these
cases.

There seems no doubt about the Zen

quickly. 1t is also considered certain
from expressions of advance mem
bers here that charity bill of some
nature will be passed.

inspection of Company |.

Co. I was inspected last Saturday night by Capt. Reed of Fort Whipple. The company put up fine appearance, although having labored under good many difficulties, and were very high ly commended for their soldierly ap- pearance, the good condition their equipment was in, and their ability in drill on short notice.
 The equipment of the company is old and worn, and it is expected as a result of the good showing made at inspection full new equipment, in cluding Krag-Jorgensen rifles, will be shortly issued to the company by the government.
 A splendid class of sturdy young men are coming into the company and all are taking an enthusiastic interest in making it crack company that all may we'll be proud of.
 The cheerful hard work the members of the company are doing, regular at- tendance at drill, and extra squad drills, is rapidly putting them into shape for any emergency.
 The praise given the company by Capt. Reed has given the officers new enthusiasm, and the probability of
