DEVOURED THE MILLINERY
Men Had the Fruit Thrust Into Their
Faces and Took
Bite at It.

Here is warning to women wearing
imitation fruits on their hats. They
should cover them with a wire netting
or other preservative to prevent irri-
tated gentlemen from deyouring the
horticultural display when it is showed
in their faces in crowded street cars.
says the Chicago Inter-Ocean.
A Lake avenue belle has learned that
it would have been we'll had she taken
such precautions. She boarded crowd
ed trolley on the Indiana avenue line
and was forced to stand on the rear
platform, where she was wedged in
among lot of men. Her hat was
long, low and loud, and had beautiful
orchard on the top. The shrubbery ex-
tended on all sides, and in some of the
emerald sprouts were small copper
wires.
AS the car lurched back and forth
the passengers in the vicinity of the
up-to-date Psyche made connection
with the Writings hidden in the foliage.
But this was not all. She was evident
ly practicing the neck building exer-
cises recommended by physical cultur-
lists. The result was that her head was
turning constantly. and all those
around her seemed to have the arti-
fetal fruits and flowers thrust in their
faces when least expecting it.
This is the limit" said a tall indi-
vidual behind her as his eyeglasses
were brushed off by cluster of cher
ries for the eighth time. IF it hap
pens again I'll bite he added.
In less than a minute the appetizing
looking cherries repeated the trick.
The mouth of the tall man opened.
Three cherries disappeared in the cavity,
and when the hat bobbed again it was
minus that part of the trimming.
A man standing near by, who also
had been exceedingly annoyed, proceed
| ed to denude the hat of a grape decora-
ton. Another took away a few green
leaves without the woman discovering
| the theft. There seemed good chance
of her losing all the trimmings, when she
reached her home street and descended
| from the car.

Iced tea recently caused revolt in
Warren county IN. j. Jail. Sheriff
Bakers wife, in the kindness of her
heart, thought it would be pleasing

When dinner was served a glass OF
iced tea with a slice of lemon floating
on top accompanied it. The prisoners
rebelled They called 1t slush and re-
fused to drink it.
John Thompson, the hobo prince OF
the county" led the revolt, and threat
ened vengeance il the prisoners were
not given their hot drink. When the
trouble was at it's height Sheriff Baker
returned, knocked out Thompson and
two or three of his pals, and the dis
turbance was quickly Quelled.

FRlLLs OF THE FASHIONS.
New Novelties and Notions That Are
Now Filling the Fem
mime Eye.

Spotted materials are very much worn.
Shawl shaped capes are a Partisan
novelty.
Chinese slippers, beautifully embroid-
cred, are worn with kimonos.
White mohair is a preferred material
.or golf and shirt waist suits.
Colored mohairs are being used for
tailor made costumes for generalwear.
Crystalline, which resembles Indian
silk, makes very desirable underskirts.
A very popular method of trimming is
with ribbon gathered into a ruche.
Soft Indian silk petticoats deliberately
trimmed with lace are exceedingly pref
y.
The tourist coat in linen and mohs.ir
is worn as an accompaniment of the
linen suit
A great deal of black velvet ribbon,
threaded through lace, or made up into
little bows of mahy strands, is to be seen.
Cedar brown, soft pinkish dull tone.
is one of the favorite colors and coIn-
bines perfectly with deep brown, amber
and ivory
The newest summer frocks have elbow
sleeves. They are very much befiounced
and befrilled, producing a picturesque
effect
Some of the new petticoats in the fin
est muslins have lace edged deep tiounces
up to the very knee, interrun with rib
bon attached to yoke.
Stockings and slippers alike are hand
painted in Paris and beautiful slippers
are embroidered to match the color Of
the dressing or lounging gown.
Paris has decreed the revival of the
jampot crown hat, and all the best houses
are showing models copied from the
Marie Antoinette or Directoire periods,
reports the Brooklyn Eagle
Curious puppies, deep dark pinks and
the colors which our gran6mothers
called puce and lavender, and many odd
shades of RED or touches of the brightest
orange and voyant yellow brighten up
fashionable hats.
Onion white is one of the new pretty
| tones. 1t is, as its name implies, green
| ish white, and it is clear and pale and
| pretty and color that is immensely be-
| coming to greenish blondes
Blondes without tone in the skin, can
wear green and pink and one of the hand
soonest gowns is a CONNECTION in these
colors. For the brunettethe tones must
be a little deeper, and if she be very
wise brunette she will cling to white, fol
it will afford better contrast to hel
| Cuban beauty.
Among some lovely evening gowns re-
Gently designed is pompadour frock in
the daintiest of silvergray silk pat
termed with pink rosebuds. The skirt i:
bordered with pinked out f1ounce, the
gaugings beneath the heading being fin

AN OKLAHOMA MAN FLIES.
Educator Makes Successful Test of
Flying Machine-Built on
New Principle.

Prof. Jonas Cook, superintendent of
the Chickasha public school, at Lawton.
Okla, the other day. in the presence of
County Superintendent Nelson, G. w.
Bohannon, professor Of science in the
southwestern normal college, at Wealth
erford, Okla, and w. F. Kerr, a news
paper correspondent, of Lawton, made
his first trip with flying machine he
has recently invented. He sailed from
the summit of Mount Scott, in the
Wichita mountains, and landed in the
Kechi hills, several miles to the east
The trip has proved to the professor
that his machine is a success
The mechanism of the machine con-
sists of a small instrument that at
taches to the side and initiates a khaki
blouse that the professor wears. In
this instrument is the generator of n.y.
drogen gas that initiates the blouse and
regulates the height and the rate the
professor desires to travel.

Provincial Prejudice.

If now the representatives of d
mingled race make themselves thus
personally attractive, why should the
very existence of such a race be re-
garded as an insuperable evil? The
answer is that the tradition lies simply
in the associations of slavery. Outside
or this country such insuperable aver
sion plainly does not exist, nor is it to
be found in the land nearest to us in
kindred, England A relative of mine.
Boston lady, distinguished in the last
generation for beauty and bearing,
was once staying in London with her
husband, when they received a call at
breakfast time from a mulatto of fine
appearance, named Prince Sanders.
whom they had known well as a stew
ard, or head waiter in Boston. She
felt that she ought to ask him. as a
fellow-countryman, to sit down at
table with them, but she shrank from
1t until he rose to go; and then. in a
cowardly manner, as she frankly adj
mitted, stammered out the invitation.
To which his reply was: THANK
you, madam, but l am engaged tc
breakfast with a duke this morning !"
which turned out to be true-Atlantic

is MESSAGES OVER I WIRE.
New Process Invented by Prof. Hi
chael Pupin May Revolutionize
the Present Systems.

To telegraph Is messages simultane-
made possible through an invention OF
DR.. Michael nvorsky Pupin, professor
Of electro-mechanics in Columbia uni
versity. When asked if there could be
any doubt as to the commercial prac-
ticability Of his device, DR.. Pupin re-
piled:
Absolutely none whatever"
The Pupin system differs chiefly from
the multiplex systems now in use in
that it operates with an alternating in
stead of direct current 1t might be
described as system of tuning Dr.
Pupin devised his multiplex machine
in the laboratory of Columbia uni
versity and there is model of 1t now
on view in the lecture room of Have
meyer hall. Attached to the generator
are devices for giving out alternating
currents Of various frequency. Instead
Of the current passing directly along
the wire. as in the case with the ordi-
nary telegraph system, these devices
cause it to proceed in fluctuations OF
waves. II Is circuits are to be operat-
ed, the machine will make it possible
for Is currents, each vibrating In
waves OF distinctive lengths, to pass
along the wire at once, and when they
reach their destination they will find
waiting for them 16 receivers each
tuned to respond to one set Of vibra
tions and no other.

ASLEEP.

Dear babe, when I left you
This morning you slept;
Your gold curls and tangled
Flung outward, and swept
Across your pillow;
You never knew L
STOPPED softly above you
To kiss you goodbye.
I knelt down beside you,
My hat on the floor.
My wealth was before me,
conned it all DER;
The small ears shell tinted,
Each wee dimpled fist,
The cheek like a rose leaf
A-blush where I kissed.
I kissed you and left you,
But paused at the stair;
Then tiptoed back to you
To gaze on you there;
Some dream touched your fancy.
With fingers that swept
The sweet chords of pleasure,
You smiled as you slept.
I hoped dear, to hear your
Sweet treble ring clear;
And, sweet, L walked slowly
And listened to hear
No voice of my loving
The morns silence broke,
No baby called to me:
oh, papa, I'm woke"
And so, oh, my heartsease,
left you alone;
But noontime will find me
Come into nv OWQi
You'll run quick to meet me,
Your laugh full of glee,
You're all of the wide world
And all heaven to me.

BrAia Food Nonsense.

Another ridiculous food fad has
been branded by the most compe-
tent authorities. They have dis
PEELED the silly notion that one
kind of food is needed for brain
another for muscle, and Still all
other for bones. A correct diet
will not only nourish a particular
part of the body, but will sustain
every other part. Yet, however,
good your food may be, its nutrl~
ment is destroyed by indigestion
or dyspepsia. You must prepare
for their appearance or prevent
their coming by taking regular
doses of Green's August Flower,
the favorite medicine OF the
healthy millions. A few doses aids
digestion, stimulates the liver to
healthy action, purifes the blood
and makes you feel buoyant and
