THE BAND CUT ICE.
Too Cold to Make Music, md they
Wnn<cd TO Re Set to work
ut Once.

One winter when the First United States
caTaIry was stationed in Montana the
t,ndmaster went to the commander OF the
,0st Gen. Cuvier Grover, and reported
- the members of the band had been or
Ssred TO help cut ice, relates the Detroit
trce Press. He said: "Sheneral, they did
al enlist us to cut ice, but to make moosic."
The commanding officer called the adjutant
and on his approach said: MIR. AdJutant,
Mr Schmidt wishes the band excused from
20 fatigue; he says they enlisted to make
,ousie Mr.. Schmidt, bowling to the COM
handing officer, said: Yes, sheneral, to
IKE moosic." The commanding officer
then said: Mr.. Adjutant, the band viii
he excused from ice fatigue" Mr.. Schmidt
bowed himself out, saying Thank you,
sbeneral: thank you, sheneral. but"
continued the commanding officer, as the
door closed, Mr.. AdJutant, the band will

"Sheneral. 1t Is impossible to make

bands of whalebone and ribbons COM
pared with the steel-ribbed, unyield-
ing "straitjackets" worn some years
ago. The corset of to-day is made on
entirely different lines, being short, of
soft material, with but couple of
bones, and it is shaped on hygienic and
physiological principles, giving the in
ternal organs proper amount of
space and freedom, and allowing ample
play for the movements of the ribs and
upper chest in breathing.
Probably one of the most prolific
agents in bringing about this fortu-
nate change is the modern devotion to
outdoor games, pastimes and pur-
suits. No woman squeezed up in ar
old-fashioned corset such as our
mothers wore, could, even had she
dreamed of such a thing, walk a half
mile, let alone run and stoop, strike at
ball, manipulate a fishing rod, or
paddle a canoe. And the results are
most gratifying, for never in the
worlds history has there dwelt such a
race of strong, healthy girls and beau
tifal, graceful and happy women as
we are.

FIRST STAGE OFCATARRH
A Serious Mistake Which Thou.
sands Are Making.

The first stage of catarrh is what is
commonly known as catching cold"
1t may be in the head, nose, throat or
lungs. Its beginning is sometimes so
severe as to cause chill and consider
able fever, or it may be so slight as to
not hinder a person from his usual
business. In perhaps a majority of
cases little or no attention is paid to
the first stage of catarrh, and hence it
is that nearly one-half of the people
have chronic catarrh in some form.
To neglect cold is to invite chronic
catarrh. As soon as any one discovers

Writing of blouses leads us on to

Fashion has at last decreed that we

more charming than at. the present
time.
Those who would have insisted that
the coil must be worn low upon the
neck have been unable to wholly carry
out their ideas, and it has been left
for each woman TO decide for herself
as to how her hair shall be arranged.
But to the art of the hair dresser have
been added numberless attractive arti-
fetal decorations in the way of orna-
ments that offer every possible variety.
Not that these ornaments are deemed
a necessity, for while there are many
of them worn, and especially in the
evening, but on the other hand the
hair may be simply dressed with
out ornaments, or with nothing but the
plain tortoise side combs. The illus
trations give an idea of the variety
in hair ornaments, but of all that are
shown nothing compares with flowers
and bunch of tightly closed buds is
one of the fancies. This is worn low
at one side, if the hair is dressed low
and tucked at one side of the pom
padour II the hair is dressed high.
The flowers are made of silk velvet
and chiffon and are exquisitely dainty
and perfect. With velvet petals and
the chiffon petals in the center, the
pink roses are charming, but if you
wish to be very smart wear a large
black rose if you have blonde hair, and
a pretty white one with green leaves
if your hair is dark.
