A Strong Heart

is assured by perfect digestion.
Indigestion swells the stomach

the stomach, takes the strain off
the heart and restores it to a full
performance of it's function nat

Braia Food Nonsense.

Another ridiculous food fad has

another for muscle, and still an
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 nutri-

for their appearance or prevent
their coming by taking regular

The Eu4curean Badger.

The badger is great epicure in eggs.
and much of the hostility Of game
keepers to this animal lies undoubtedly
in the fact that it will. when it gets the
chance. devour a whole nest Of par
fridge or pheasant eggs. Badgers are
said also to 10 fond Of honey, and,
knowing the extraordinary craving OF
their South African cousin. the ratel,
for this deicacy. | should say it is nor
improbable that they may occasionally
partake of it. 1t is certain that these
animals have a particular liking FOR
the nest and larvae OF waSps and wild
bees, digging down with strong feet
and infinite perseverance till they at
tain their object. These animals are
said by keepers to kill and devour free
IL Young rabbits. That they do partake
of this far" ut times is. think, certain,
but that they destroy any very ccnsid
cradle number is more than doubtful.
Still. the badger is carnivorous in his
tastes and Is not, even by his kindlicst
friends, to be absolved from devouring
at times tender rabbits and even the
young Of game birds when he car get
bold of acknowledgements.

Hoops in JleeDes.

AT last the hoop is here!
The fact will in no wise crafty the

mousseline in a dress of dainty green

and just above the elbow there are
dainty little shirrings, the center one
of the cluster of three concealing a
reed no thicker than a wire. This
reed is a hoop, however. 1t is about
nine inches in diameter and is "Restor-

Ribbon Collars.

In our most fanciful sartorial
dreams we hardly saw ribbon serving
as the collar of coat.
Yet this is just what many a lovely
length of ribbon is doing. To be sure
the coats thus adorned are evening
wraps, and the ribbon is vouchsafed
as a slight recompense for the col
larless condition of the coat. 1t really
was quite severe throat test to jump
from the ubiquitous storm collar of a
few seasons back to the utter baroness
offered of late The feminine throat re-
sented the radical change, so, as a sop
to this denuded member. we have the
ribbon collar.
These ribbon collars are formed
thus. A couple of yards or more of
five-inch ribbon in lovely pastel print
ings are required. At about the mid
die of this length the ribbon is
wrinkled on a two-inch bit of neatly
covered whalebone to hold 1t up in
place. This is placed at the center
back of the neck of the coat. The
lower edge of the ribbon is then deftly
caught the rest of the way around. 1t
is gathered in again at each side of the
front, and the ends are then allowed
to fall free. or they are tied. This
finish is noted both on cape and coat
models-Philadelph Record.

Why U'e Laugh.

NJ. Henri Bergson, in a curious book
which he calls La Rire. explains why
we laugh. He has a novel theory to ac-
count for our laughter. which is that
automati i is the real genesis Of the
comical.
In gesture. says NJ. Bergson. the
movements of the human body are
laughable in the exact degree in which
that body reminds US of a mechanism
For instance, why do we laugh when
an orator, making an eloquent gesture.
upsets the glass of water placed before
him? We do not laugh because the
motion was an unexpected one, but
because the body ceased to be under
control and was mechanical. Had the
speech maker had an apoplectic stroke
ii would have been just as unexpected,
but we should not have laughed.
Speeches which make US laugh, M
Bergson goes on, are those which come
out automatically. For instance, If 1
die. will you come to my funeral"
with pleasure" And, of course, au-
tomatism in a situation makes for
laughter, such as the celebrated situa-
ton in the "Chapeau de Paille d'Italie, :"
when a whole marriage party searches
for a straw hat which horse has
eaten. There is something novel about
this theory of NJ. Henri Bergson-

Shirt udiSt Suits.

necessity and the present modes are all
that could be desired in that line.
There is large assortment, and big
variety of different styles and designs,
and they come in all colors and ma
terials Silk braid ribbon binding and
fringe is used quite a little and much
embroidery is appearing on the fancy
waist of heavy material The surplice
waist affords many opportunities for
elaborate and becoming trimming. and
also many are worn with the w low
neck. Tucks plaits and shirrs con-
stitute much of the fullness and fanci-
ness, and a waist is not complete un-
less yards and yards of material are
utilized in the making.
A suit which would catch the fancy
of any woman who was a bit artistic
was of light blue albatr, So. The waist
was tucked finely to the bust line,
where it was loose. Black velvet rib
bon was used as straps with tiny
tassel on each end. A sort of Mexican
braid formed an elaborate design
across the front and over the shoulder
seam. White embroidery of extreme
fineness was employed as the yoke.
Other pretty little suits are made of
cashmere, henrietta and even lawns
are being made up for winter wear
AS white is so fashionable, ma
jority of women prefer it to any color.
and the daintiest of froeks are due to
the popularity of white. The separate
