New York. Feb 16-The attention Of
womankind is divided just now by the
fact that we are without doubt in for
much bitterly cold weather. making
furs and warm garments necessary,
and are in the midst of the social sea-
son when handsome evening and recep-
ton gowns are required. Also, we have
all the dainty glories of the summer
dress goods spread out before Us III
every direction. From whence that Gu
rious fashion came I would like to
know, that in the middle of winter we
must purchase and have made or make
up the dresses that are to grace the
summer But so it Is. and lovely woman
is fastening from one place to another
seeking the dainty stufs for warm
days.
But think that sufficient unto the
day is the evil thereof" and so we will
talk about the comfortable suits which
are SO necessary and so pretty. Be
sides, they are the right thing in the
right place. There is an unusually
nice list of spring woolens, which are
made up in many ways to suit many
people. For the young girls who look
pretty in anything there are some
homespun plaids. with the pattern
raised higher than the body Of the ma
terial by .zibeiine stripes in lighter
shades of the same color. In the illus
tration Is suit made. of brown home
spun with stripes of tan with the Zibe-
line hairs. The hairs are almost cream
white.
This particular suit has q plated
blouse with Garibaldi strap on the
shoulder. The cuffs are of tan cloth.
and, so is the quaint rundown collar.
The skirt is laid in slot seams to the
knees. where it is left free. A draped
belt of brown velvet and fall of ac-
Gordon plated brown taffeta make
the finish. Very young ladies rather
like to go out without wraps, and for
them are close channels inner vests.
Plaid WOODEN stuffs are offered in all
the shades of gray and brown and also
dark blue with dull, grayish white lib
cline squares. In fact, all colors seem
to be seen i'll the plaids, and where
suit is made of plaid the hat or toque
is made with the dress goods as foun-
dation 1t Is considered very stylish to
have the hat of the material, as that
fact is supposed to show that the suit
is not a ready to wear affair purchased
from some cheap and popular store.
I have strong impression that there

among the new things.

Sault Ste. Marie, Feb. lT.-When G
little girl the other day closed a switch
in the big power house recently com
pleted here. the problem Of cheap pow

The moment contact was made by the
closing Of this switch eighty-one huge
dynamos began to revolye, sending Il

What is of more immediate impor-
lance to the people of this city is that
the new canal and power house will re-
suit in a civic development that was
impossible In the old days. For one
reason alone. the absence of cheap
power, Sault Ste. Marie has been back

very costly. so that, despite the natural
advantages, despite the city's location
In vast mining region and on the
banks Of government canals. the place

cheap power all this will surely be
changed, and it Is small wonder that

charming in person and successful in
lerters-what more is needed to arouse
public interest? Having speculated as
to the amounts which popular young
authoresses earn by their pen work. the
next questions which the average per-
son asks are: What do they do with

cent home in Richmond. Halle En-
mimic Rives has been travelling abroad.
Now comes news of Miss Bertha Run
lille, whose first book, The Helmet Of
Navarro" has brought her a small for
tune.
Miss Runkle is spending the winter
in California, but early in the spring
she plans to go to Japan for long rest.
She Is not writing at present, although
she has well under way another histor-
ical romance of an earlier period than
''The Helmet ofNavarre."
II got to point where my story
seemed dead; was just writing words,

Gently, land so put it away and will
not take it up again until am quite

The truth is that Miss Runkle is not
even yet over her surprise at the i'm
mediate success of her story. She has
a naive modesty about her accomplish
ment and is not quite positive about
the way in which she came into her
own.
The actual prepa ration Miss Runkle
had for her career must be of interest
to those who have theories as to the
best kind of education for a girl. and
particularly for those who show a de-
cided bent. She never attended college.
Her instruction was in private school
in New York. and when within some
two years Of finishing the course. which
was practically such one as is given
In high school, Miss Runkles health
gave way and she was taken out. After
a rest, instruction at home in English

mathematics followed. This gave the

Il was always browsing in the libra
ries, and did exactly the kind of work
that pleased me-" said Miss Runkle.
Miss Runkle is tall. above the aver
age. She is most interesting type of
American girl, and her manners are Of
the cheerful sort, cordial, with just an
attractive shyness. She is rosy checked
and bright eyed.
Miss Runkle has but twenty years
and a few more to her credit, and
should be able to do valuable work in
American fiction. for she does not seem
spoiled by excessive praise" as some
of her friendly critics feared that she
might be. She has at least been wise
enough not. to rush another book on
the public on the strength of her sue
cess.

the convenience of the uptown and
downtown neighborhoods of Morgan

Of the idea Of par excellence.
Since the opening of our exquisite

and admired.
AT both our stores we carry out the
ideal of our intentions: Purity in the
quality of our drugs; polite and faith
full service; excellence in stock goods;
exquisite fiavors in our soda fountains.
The combination of excellence and
perfection with the CONSTANT aim to
please has won for US our constantly
increasing patronage.
1T will afford you genuine pleasure
to drop into our new Main street store.
We study to please the most faetidous
tastes in both our interior furnishings
and superb quality of stock.
The physicians and their clientage
find that our prescription department
is above the standard of excellence.

lions, made possible by years of care
full education aud training.
The toilet articles, soaps, perfumes,
and other drug store accessories at

Night Practice Resorted to :. Fast
Record of Last Year EquaIIed.

A night school of instruction has
been special feature of foot ball
practice at the University Of Mich
gan during the past week. Every
night the men assemble ia the great
Waterman gymnasium behind lock
ed doors and are put through fast
clip on formation work. All this is
done in addition to the regular af-
ternoon scrimmages.
Coach Yost has made much pro-
gress with his heavyweights in the
matter of team play and finer points
Of the game. After the showing in
the last two games, the presence of
so many freshmen on the varsity,
six in all, is looked upon by the
students with a GOODNESS and uncon
Germ that no one would think posi-
BILE during the first two weeks of
college. The Michigan defense is
rapidly nearing perfection. In spite
of the attempted crlsscross plays,
quarterback runs, revolving plays
on tackle and wing shifts of the OPP
posing teams, the ball is invariably
thrown back for twice as much
ground as has been gained
The point-aminute record of
Michigan, 1902, team was not as
good as the scoring record of 1908
in its games so far. But four games
has been played mp to date, while
score of 25l points have been run up
in exactly 1913 minutes Of play
Michigan has thus scored a point
and .two-thirds per minute, or five
points in every three minutes of
play. This means that it takes Just
three minutes for the Wolverines to
score a touchdown, a remarkable
record

TO BUILD NEW BRIDGE.
Railroad Company to Change
the Course Of the Road at
the Depot Here.

: Work has been commenced in the
construction of stone abutments for
the new bridge to be built by the
South Shore railroad company
across Fall river, near the depot at
this place. This is but the first step
in rebuilding the track for the pur-
pose of eliminating the dangerous
curve at that point. 1t is the in.
tention of the railroad company tc
rebuild the tracks along the strip
where the coal sheds now stand. II
is understood the coal sheds now
maintained at L'Anse will be done
away with.
The work OF changing the course
OF the road will doubtless require
several weeks time. Nothing is
learned regarding the building ol
a new depot at L'Anse, but it is
rumored that something will be
done shortly.
