AS EASY.
Needs Only a Little Thinking.

The food of childhood often decides
whether one is to grow up well nour-
ished and healthy or weak and sickly
from improper food.
It's just as easy to be one as the 9TH
er, provided we get proper start.
A wise physician like the Denver
Doctor who knew about food, can &C
complish wonders, provided the patient
is willing to help and will eat only
proper food.

CAUSE OF BAD LANGUAGE.
Natural Desire to Impart Vigorous
and Picturesque Touch to
the Narrative.

A correspondent of the Pail Mall Ga
zette gives an analysis of converse
ton in a railway train which should
arouse the advocates of clean speech to
a new crusade against bad language.
He states that navy, in explaining
to friend that, owing to misdirec-
ton by porter, he had missed a
quicker train, made use of Sc 'unpar-
liamentary" expressions:
Seventeen adjectives of lurid hue
Five appeals to the Almighty.
Two invocations that his own eye
sight might be destroyed.
Three invocations upon the eyes of
the referred official
Seven iterations of the name Of the
Internal regions.
One side issue, necessitating the
name of the Messiah.
Seventeen adjectives of simple OBJ
scenity.
nature.
A clergyman who has lived much
among working men said that the rea-
son why working men so often make
use of strong" language is "the natu-
raj and laudable desire of the speaker
to impart vigor and picturesque
touch to his narrative.
"The probability is that both Car
lyle and Mr.. Kipling would have been
habitual users of very bad language
but for the saving grace of education.
Carlyle 'dredged the dictionary for ad-
jectives to express his meaning, and
Mr.. Kipling invents word when he
wants to strike you with the weight
of six-fold blow

1.-THE of the excessive adjectives and
adverbs that abound in the language.
But his soul bankers after something
more virile than very and extremely, ,
and in his meritorious but unlearned
endeavor to be picturesque he falls
into the error of profanity. Teach the
working man his own language in the
board schools and bad language will
disappear.

Fall Colorings and Trimmings

self-colored braids are chosen for the
palmer gowns; brown cloth costume
should be trimmed with brown silk
braid, blue cloth with braid to match,
and so on. Soft buttons are liked for
fall trimmings, and flouncings promise
to have vogue, wide taffeta silk ruff1es
being one of the novelties. Velvet will
be employed not only for whole suits,
but as trimming to degree unknown
for several years, and will be conspicu-
GUS also on the fall and winter millinery.
The soft, pliable velvets, those with
lustrous tones, being preferred. Epaul-
cites we still have with us, and for these
the dressmakers use lace, embroideries,
braid and beading. Open-eyelet en-
broidery, which has been such craze
in Paris all the past season, will be seen
even on velvet frocks this year.

CITY MAN OUT-OF-DOORS.
Vacation Habit Means Improvement
in Public Health and
Happiness.

A general and killing absorption in
the business of life was once the ac-
copied theory of American activity. 1t
is true that there is still tremendous
stress shown by Americans in the pur-
suit not only of their business vocatlons
but of their social avocatiOns. Yet the
business mans summer vacation is get
ting to be more and more an accepted
institution, says an editorial in Gen.
fury. He manages to get longer periods
of complete rest and recreation, and he
contrives, moreover, to seize upon any
number of half-holidays and over-Sun-
day outings, especially in the warmer
months. When he can control his time
he gives greater portions of it than ever
before to horseback exercise and to golf
and kindred sports. The business mans
family, instead of being satisfied, as of
old, with few weeks in crowded hotel
by the sea or in the mountains, spend
the whole summer in the country, as
boarders in hotel or farmhouse, or as
jewellers in country place of their own,
modest or sumptuous, in accordance
with their means and taste.
The city mans modern discovery of
the country and his increasing use of
it in the summer months has been a
subject of comment now these many
years. There has been discussion of it's
effect upon the city people themselves,
and upon the country people into whose
communities they enter; of its effect
upon manners and morals; of its eco
nomic bearings and it's relation to the
abandoned farm problem, and of the in
fiuence upon the nation of the greater
mingling of people from various parts
of the country.
With all this search for recreation
and health, what with westerners going
east and fasteners going west, with
northerners going south and southern
ers going north, summer and winter;
with all this search for the opportunity
to fish and shoot, or to enjoy social
pleasures; with all this interchange of
national advantages (for any and every
climate can be found in the United
States), one may look for an improve
ment In the public health and happiness,
as we'll as for dissemination of
knowledge of our own people and of our
own country which ought to be decid-
edly conducive to an intelligent patri-
otism

concerning

suits are an accepted mode, yet the
utility of the odd waist makes is neces-
sary part of the wardrobe. The one in
the illustration is style that would not
look out of place at any hour of the day,
being simple enough for the morning
and dressy enough for evening. 1t
should be made of soft material, crepe
de chine, challis, or null, which easily
adapt themselves to the shiring and al
low for much fulness. If the deep epaul
cites and band down the front are of
Teneriffe embroidery worked on the
goods of which the waist is fashioned
the effect could not be improved, either
as regards modishness or beauty.
Colored linen gowns have been
marked feature of the summer, and no
doubt will continue to be much worn
during the kindly days of autumn. They
are generally becoming, have an air of
softness and richness, pack away easily,
and have the advantage of looking fresh
after considerable wear. Blue in many
shades, varying from gobelin to delft,
have been very popular, robin's-egg
marked favorite among well-dressed
women. Undyed linens have continued
in vogue, and linen gowns of mauve,
raspberry-red, and pale yellow have
been seen. Buff chambrey, an old, old
favorite, the Parisians have used not
little, but it has not yet obtained on this
side. Paris has also been more taken

few samples, but one seldom seeing the
bordered dresses worn.
Hand embroidery appears on every
thing nowadays, from chemise to hem
of the outer garment. Yesterday made
tour of the shops and at one was shown
a handmade waist just brought in, one
of the new fall models. 1t was of soft
est, richest, creamiest messaline, elab-
orately trimmed with inset work simu-
lating yoke; stock and cuffs with more
simple needlework decoration. The
sleeves were enormous, the blouse quite
full-in spite of rumors concerning the
going-out of the latter style. Although
so much labor had been spent on the
waist, the effect was Of elegant sim
plicity. The price for the simplicity was
SAP.
In regard to the tourist wrap it seems
to be another article of apparel that has
made itself more or less of necessity.
