are trusting for their inspiration, at the
moment, especially where the modes for
mademoiselle are concerned. 1t is all
these dainty, tiny flowers, that are
chiefly in demand for trimming young
girls hats, and they naturally, there
fore, play an important part in that
group of sketches which will be found
upon this page, representing three very
novel and dainty examples of millinery
specially suitable for summer.
The sketch on the left hand side of
the group suggests a hat which would
be quite appropriate for Sunday best,
for young girl of Is or 16. 1t could be
made in any of those soft fancy straws
which are so much in vogue this season,
and which, with few deft touches of the
fingers, can be bent in and out, and, in
fact, moulded into almost any shape
which happens to be becoming to the
face of the wearer. In this case, the
shape is bent into number of vandyke
points, which have something the ap-
pearance of the petals of flower. Car
ried out in mixed pale green and white
straw, this hat would be particularly
pretty. The trimming should consist of
three large rosettes of soft Louisine silk
ribbon, in some shade of green, which
should either match exactly or else har-
monize with the green of the straw. In
the center of each rosette there is a tiny
cluster of flowers These flowers might
be either forget-me-nots, pink-tipped
daisies, Parma vi6lets, or very small
Banksia roses, according to the color of
the frocks and blouses, with which the
hat will be most frequently worn.
The second SKETCH which comes lit
tie higher on the right, shows one of
those picturesque lace hats, always so
becoming to a youthful face, and never
out of fashion. The lace is supported
underneath, of course, by wire shape,
and on to the crown of this shape, the
lace is gathered, the crown being first
lined with two or three thicknesses of
chiffon or mousseline de sole. Two
gathered frills of the same lace fall
softly over the brim, while round the
crown there is a wreath of flowers, form
ing a kind of floral ruche, with the bios
some massed closely together. Here
again the choice of flowers must depend
upon circumstances. but | can imagine
this hat looking very pretty with a
wreath either of rambler roses, or OF

for the hope that he may turn the CEN
tury mark.
The old boys in blue tell many good
stories about Gen. Osterhaus, one of
which is worth reprinting:
Talking of Osterhaus," said a Fourth
Iowa man, reminds me of something
that happened at Dallas. Ca, during the
Atlanta campaign. There was beautiful
fighting in front, on the right flank, and
a cross fire on our position which made
the situation extremely interesting. In
the heat of the fight Gen. Osterhaus rode
up to our position with only two or three
mounted men as escort. AS he came
in range he quickly dismounted, and
gave his horse to one of his orderlies,
and directed him to go to the rear.
THE general dropped all dignity for
the time being, and made a run to get
behind a tree. When he reached the
tree he found there a big German named
William Kenney, of the Fourth Iowa
AS Kenny himself was almost too large
for the tree, the general said: Get away,
man, get away from here Kenny
turned, and in his COOL deliberate way
asked: Must | to the rear go?' Oster-
haus said at once: No, no, my good man.
Stick right here; we cannot spare you
just at this time. This tree is big enough
for two Then replied Kenny, 'toged-
der We stick Osterhaus remained be-
hind the tree, directing operations until
he was satisfied that the fight was going
the right way, and whenever the boys
of the Fourth Iowa saw him after that
they said among themselves: "Toged-
der we stick"

UNIQUE CIVIL WAR TOAST.

1t may seem rather trite TO go back

the tales of that memorable time have

l can vouch for it. Ihave never seen it in

My uncle, Maj. Thomas Ridgly, was

1t was after the surrender of Vicksburg.
The union forces had entered the city
and much making and entertain

was in progress at which many north

had been proposed and drunk, all of
them practically in honor of the sue

responsible for them.
Finally, one of the southern ladies, a

partisan feeling for the SOUTH arose and

Peter ], Osterhaus, after an absence of
80 years, recalls vividly the achieve

son of the country, he fought in the war
for the union on the union side with con-

until he reached by his own unaided eff

services in every battle in which he par

him as a soldier in every way worthy
of his uniform. He has been spending
his later years abroad, partly in the

in repose. His visit is for the purpose

Recent Discovery of Dublin Veterin-
ary Meets Success in Test on Dogs.

Recent Discovery of Dublin Veterin-
ary Meets Success in Test on Dogs.
The recent discovery BY Mr.. Allen,
a Dublin veterinary surgeon, that Or
binary turpentine is an antidote to
carbolic acid has aroused great inter
est.
Recently a well known chemical
expert in Dublin tested the efficacy
of the antidote on dog. A dose of
carbolic acid was first administered,
and when all the ordinary symptoms
of carbolic poisoning had been devel-
oped, oil of turpentine was applied
and the dog recovered within a short
time.
1t is a curious thing about the dis
covery that is was due more or less
to an accident. Mr.. Allen had some
horses in his establishment which
were suffering from carbolic poison
ing, and he asked for oil to be applied
as an antidote.
1t was only when the effects were
found to be so unexpectedly success
full that it was discovered that it was
turpentine that had been administer
ed.
A few days after blacksmith who
was unconscious from the effects of
carbolic poisoning was treated SINH
larly, with satisfactory results.

interesting incident that occurred not

Grape Nuts is the most beneficial of all
cereal foods in my family, young as we'll
as old. 1t is food and medicine both to-
us. A few mornings ago at breakfast
my little boy said:
Mamma, does the king eat Grape
Nuts very morning?

but that thought Grape-Nuts certainly
made a delicious dish. fit for king"
Qt's fact that the king of England and
the German emperor both eat Grape
Nuts.)
81 find that by the constant use OF
Grape-Nuts not only as morning cereal
but also in puddings, salads, etc, made
after the delicious recipes found in the
little book in each package it Is proving
to be great nerve food for me, besides
having completely cured long standing
case of Indigestion" Name given by
Postum Co., Battle Creek Mich.
There is TO doubt Grape-Nuts Is the
most scientific food in the world
Ten days trial of this proper food in
place of improper food will show in
steady, strong nerves, sharper brain
and the power to "go" longer and further
and accomplish more. There's a reason.

OUR FARM SURPLUS.
The Exports Last Year Were Worth
SS7e,oOOooO.

pof o,OOoJOOO.
Washington, May 23.-The depart
ment of agriculture has issued a re-
port on "The Nations Farm Surplus" /"
prepared by George X. Holmes, chief
of the division of foreign markets. 1t
gives $4,500,000,000 as a conservative
estimate of the value of the farm
products of this country not fed to
live stock in 1908, on the basis of the
census valuation. The value of the
exported farm products of this coun-
try was in 1903 $S7S,479,451 and the
highest value reached duding the last
IL years was 1851 ,62S,331 in 1901, due
chiefly to cotton.
The value of the exported farm
products of this country is con-
centrated mostly in few principal
products. OF it in 1903 cotton consti-
tuted SO per cent, grain and grain
products 25 per cent, meat and meat
products and live animals "a per
cent, these products equalling over SO
per cent of the exports of farm prod
ucts last year. Adding tobacco, whose
exports were valued at over 5,000,-
600, oil cake and oil cake meal,
S19,S39,279, fruit and nuts over $751;
100000 and vegetable oils over &c.,
100000 gives total of eight classes
of products, each with an export value
of over $10,000,000, that comprise
almost SO per cent. of the entire farm
exports of 1903
