Salt Lakes w alter.

When once you understand the art
of bathing in the great salt lake OF
Utah ii is the finest diversion on earth,
but 1t is not apt TO result pleasantly
to the man who does not heed the ad'
vice of the experienced, said Mr.. J. }.
Lyle of Chicago, at the Riggs house.
AT any other bathing resort in the
world the swimmer can play in the
waves, dive and disnort himself as he
please, but not in this wonderful!
sheet of water in the west, and all on
account of its extraordinary saline
qualities. So heavily is il charged
with brine that unless the bather pro-
tects his eyes. nose and ears from Ii
uuid contact he will receive such sting
ing punishment as will make him bit
terly regret having entered the water.
To get even a little of it in the mouth
is cause of grief. But when he knows
enough to protect himself in sensitive
places he will admit that nowhere in
the world is the bathing so fine or so
stimulating in its effects.-Washing.

OUR JAP SISTERS.

houses the panes are of oiled paper,
and do not shut out the air, even dur

the Japanese sleep rarely with these

Fresh air-and great abundance OF

who lies down FOX her nights rest has

THE SEPARATE WAIST.

With the coat and skirt suits some
kind or another of separate waist Is
indispensable, whether it be of the
severe shirt waist order, and fashioned
of toile, soielaine, or madras, or OF the
dressier order in silk, lace or velvet
and in any of these do not neglect the
dress shield-one just cannot ges away
from the separate blouse.
The princess gown, which may really
be said to be never ont of style-the
sleeves usually determine its period
is to make quite strong bid for gen
eral favor, and especially as dinner
gown. With the new figure that is to
make its appearance this somewhat
trying style will be mada more becom-
ing, for it must be confessed that the
combination of the severe princess
outline and the low bust girdle pro
duced results that were far from be-
ing either beautiful or artistic.

Facing Backward.

The country wagon was nlled, ana
the small boy of the party had ell
sconced himself contentedly in the bach
of the vehicle, with his brown feet
hanging out over the dusty road. by

and tiny lake in meadow. The
small boy grew disconte ted.

Curinua Condolences.

Curious condolences mark the lives
of two women who married DR.. A. T.
Knox, of Bowen, Powell County, Ky.
One is dead. the other living with her
husband. Both women were named
Alice, both removed to Kentucky when
eight years Of age, and each bore him
three children. The father of each
wife is dead, the mother of each is liv.
ing and each is named Ann. The pa
rents of each wife had nine children
four boys and five girls. Each wife has
three brothers whose names are ex.
actly alike, and each has two sisters
whose names are alike. One wife was
born in North Carolina and the other
in Virginia. One was the eldest OF
nine children and the other the young
est of nine children. Three children OF
DR.. Knox are living and three are
dead. The wives We're intimate

Man Traps in England.

We were reminded the other day
OF some of the incidents OF country
life OF former years by the Offering
for sale ut London auction mart OF
a couple OF man traps. These engines
were, once upon time, part OF the
chattels of we'll nigh every consider
able land owner and every energetic
game keeper. Another implement
was the spring gun, which turned on
a swivel and discharged itself as soon
as one of the connecting wires was
stumbled against, the muZzle or the
gun turning in the direction or the

coating of pitch, if of nothing worse.
The man traps sold the other day
were probably the first some or the
attendants at the sale ever saw, ana
were of the old formidable pattern
that is to say, they resembled glor'
flied gun. They measured a lnches
long and were just about feet IN
height, so that they would catch
poacher we'll above the knee, anu
once nipped, there he would remain
till his cries or the ordinary round OF
the keepers led at once TO his re-
lease and capture. The spring gun
gave its alarm, and watchers were
speedily in attendance. There was
something very barbarous about the
use Of these engines, which were not
50 very long ago quite common; in
fact, people need not be very old to
have seen boards bearing the legend,

Girdles Of brilliant burnt orange are

Very light weight broadcloths are
promised for the fall.
Inch-wide ribbons are used in place
Of the usual shoe lace.
White china silk bouses have
dropped to the dollar bargain table.
Pale yellow is to the fore for Au-
gust wear at fashionable watering
places.
Ribbon remnant counters are wind
fall to the girl who likes lots of belts
and ties.
A white buckskin sandal with a de-
sign in green and old rose on the toe
is pretty.
OF exceptional smartness is the lat
est London ralncoat of a glorious
bronze hue.
Zibelines for fall are closely sheared.
and it is said that full effects will be
in the background.
All this talk of brilliant orange
modes is distressing to women with
sullow compilations.
The severe tailormade, which Is re-
turning 70 its own, is really the only
tailor made worthy the name.
It's very nice to know that brown
will prevail in the fall. The all-brown
costume always has distinction.
Immense punches of grapes tumble
over the backs of modish fall hats, CIV
ing an undeniab!y heavy effect.
Powered orsandies are safe in'
vestment, for authority says they Will

1t is curious but well authenticated
fact that the wild silk worm produces
q silk which is declared to have a bet
ter lustre and stronger fibre than that
of the captive silk worms. 1t was as
sumed that the confinement Of and So
iicitous care received by the cultivated
variety had produced a race which had
lost some Of its original vigor. Recent
experiments seem to indicate that the
effect so apparent is due entirely to
the different food of the wild and do
mesticated silk worm. The leaves OF
the wild mulberry result in larger
growth at each stage of development
and larger. heavier mature worm
and one that produces a tilament OF
superior quality.

JEWEL DON'TS.

Don't scorn a stone because it is not
"real.' it may have real beauty and
fulfill a mission If it supplies needed
tone.
Don't forget that the gem after all
Is merely a high light and should be
associated with other stones and not
stand alone.
Don't overlook the "star" ruby, n
most rare and occult gem with six
rayed star of everchanging light-it
has much more personality than the
more expensive ruby of commerce.
Don't fail to cultivate an intensely
personal taste IN ornament, but let that
taste be uplifted by study and each
year speak higher culture and truer
relation.
Don't wear jewelry all the time,
even rings. Save precious stones for
precious occasions.
Don't wear gems with rough mate
rials-bronze and oxidized silver are
more suitable.
Don't think that expensive prices are
the most desirable. A button may he

ments should suggest utility.-Madame

STIFFENING FOR SKIRTS.

One clever couturiere is furnishing
her customers with silken pettcoats
with this hairclOth interlining the cir
cular founce, the under side of Il
strong percaline, so that it will not
cut out early in its career, and this
one petticoar then gives just the cor
rect downward and outward" line TO
the lower part of all the dress skirts.
While the fancy for the costume ell
suite is gaining favor daily, the little
separate blouse still holds its own
niche in the heart of the fashionable
woman. There are so many missions
for it to fill. OF course, for extremely
formal occas ions it's reign is over. Even
it's most enthusiastic adherent must
acknowledge tnat!
But there are those little luncheons,
those dinners Ell fam.lle, the times
when the casual caller must be re
ceived, and for such occasions the sep
arate waist is simply invaluable.
