The shirt-waist suit, first so called

more elaborate in design than last
year. 1t is, however, an essential part
Of every complete outfit, and is made
In wash material, silk of every descrip-
tion. and even in q lightweight cloth.
The skirt with bows of shirring and
fiounces is newer than pleated or
tucked ones. and is not difficult for
home dressmakers, provided a good
pattern is chosen. Skirts and waists
are both unlined, but there must be
a drop-skirt, not a petticoat, and the
waist will wear better and fit better
IL there is a lining across the shout
ders and In the upper parts Of the
sleeves In these days of long shout
der seams and the consequent tendency
of the sleeve to slip below tine top OF
the arm, this lining is necessary TO
give really trim, neat appearance to
the gown. The fancy braids now so
fashionable are great help in max
ing over last years gowns. and also
in trimming the inexpensive materials.
Not for moment is it intended to
convey the idea that to buy cheap
material and load 1t down with trim
ming is advisable, but, for instance,
with an inexpensive costume, skirt
and short coat OF black and white
shepherds plaid or check, trimming
Of black and white bald gives a
charming finish and makes the gown
appear much more expensive. Har-

SILENT BRIDES or KOREA.

Korean brides. Made of heavy cloth
carefully quilted and stiffened with

about foot above the head. The

BLEEDS LIKE A HOG
Kid Mccoy Knocks a
Huge Dutch Baby to
Pieces.
(By the Associated Prcss.)


Philadelphia, April 5.-Herr Placke, the
champion of Holland, made sorry spec
tacle of himself tonight in a fight with
kid Mccoy at the Lexon Club. Stand
ing six inches taller and weighing over
20 pounds more than his pale-faced oppo-
nent he was beaten almost insensible in
less than four minutes.
Placke never laid glove on Mccoy
except when the men clinched and the
cool calculating Mccoy darted in and out
and around his burly opponent almost
like lightning. He would feint with his
right and then drive his left to the face
viciously, scarcely ever failing to bring
the blood. Before the first round ended
Placke was covered with blood from his
neck to his waist, and both eyes were al
most closed.
Just before the gong sounded announc-
ing the close OF the first round Mccoy
drove vicious left to the chin,
dropping PIacke like log. The gong
saved him from being knocked out. He
was carried to his corner only to be
knocked out ten seconds after the opening
of hostilities in the second round. Mccoy
Tented with his right and then drove his
left square to the point of Placke's nose.
The latter intuitively placed his left hand
over the damaged organ and dropped to
his knees. The blood was running from
him in stream. AS he knelt by the
ropes the police appeared at the ring5ide
and stopped the bout.

GET RID OF THE MOSQUITO.
Board of Health Bulletin Tells How il
May be Done.

The March Bulletin of the North Caro-
lima Board of Health contains very prac-
teal article on THE War Against Mos
quitoes." The outlook for this season IL
encouraging, it is there written, on &C
count OF the severe winter just PASSED,
Tor the reason that usually very few
mosquitoes succeed in getting through
the winter alive. 1t is a well established
fact now that mosquitoes lnnocu!ate their
victims with the germs OF malaria. and
for that reason their determination is I'M
portant. The following extract from this
excellent article will prove OF interest
and value:
"As is already well known, mosquitoes
breed only in STILL waterbury,. el ably
small stagnant pools protected by grass
and underground from the wind. and Tree
from fish, which prey upon the larvae. 1t
is now also pretty generally known that
thin film OF oil upon the surface OF
such waters will prevent the laying OF
the eggs there, and enectually destroy
any larvae that may have Matched there
i'll. The problem, therefore. is very
simple one theoretically, and in most in
stances practically also. 1t IS summed
up in this one sentences: Drain, fill up
or oil (every ten days or two weeks)
every body OF stagnant water. 10 matter
how small Empty all old discarded
fruit cans, buckets and barrels about the
premises, and put them under shelter or
tCrn them upside down; drain. II pos
sblc (if not, fill up or OLD, all natural
pools; open the bitches and small wet
weather streams, to permit the running
| off and prevent the reformation of the
pools so often found along their courses.
Larger ponds stocked with fish are not
so favorable as breeding places, for rea-
sons given above, provided no shadows
protected by grass, buFlrushes, cat tails,
etc. are permitted on their borders. The
! banks of such ponds should be made as
clean and abrupt as possible, so as to
expose the entire pond to the wind and
fish But some man will say: Why take
this trouble, when there is a swamp
within a mile or half a mile OF NY house?
For the reason that fortunately mosqui-
toes rarely ever fly mile or even hall
mile. Ii instead OF laying the mosqui-
toes on the distant swamp the house
holder would make Il careful inspection
of his immediate environment, he would
nearly always find the source of supply
to be within radius OF two or three
hundred yards of his house-as Is pointed
out in DR.. Towards book on mosQui-
| toes"
! The Bulletin also contains a brief ar
| ticle on 1.-THE Distinction of Paper
Money" wherein is commended prOpo-
sition that banking institutions disinfect
all paper currency which passes through
their hands.
