defend the directory had he been backed

Men of courage as we'll as men of cul-

the glory which has exalted me. My
claims in other respects rest ON my
adoption by the king, and on the unani-

I found my rightful pretensions; and so

SUMMER GIRLS.

Lingerie waists blossom on every
tree, and an infinite variety of them
there is. AS Dame Rumor says they
1t would be we'll for the far-sighted
maid to see that her stock is kept up
How shall we begin to select and
describe when there are such num-
bers to choose from? Perhaps we had
better plunge in and bring forth what
we may. Here is one Of finest dotted
swiss, the dots very small. 1t is made
with 4 round. neck-the kind becom-
ing only to the happy maid with per-
feet throat and shoulders. It Is sort
OF baby waist, very simple, a few
gathers giving fullness in front, the
back plain. The sleeves are quite full
and extend just below the elbow, where
4 deep frill Of wide footing edged with
narrow lace flows softly over the arm.
The neck is finished with narrower
footing likewise lace edged. Simple as
can be, but if well cut and fitted very
effective.
Tucks have much place on the lin
sarte waist, and are very attractive in
summer. emphasizing the sheerness
of the materials. One waist had q
wide strip Of fine insertion down the
front, on either sido were long rows
Of tucks alternating with short clus-
tiers. At the shoulder a deep under
plait gave the proper fullness, for the
waist set we'll over the bust. This
plat was discovered" some years ago,
but its value is still appreciated.
There is no end Of lace waists. but
personally we prefer the thin materials
that are not so elaborate or ostenta-
tious as the heavy and rich all-over
patterns-the plain materials infinite
~ preferable to cheap imitation laces.
Even the best Of the all-overs look
fussy rather than cool and fresh.
We noticed cool looking maid this
morning. A black silk skirt, q sheer
white lingerie waist, elbow sleeves and
long black silk gloves. The hat was a
white: panama with a China silk scarf
wound about it, the parasol a. long,

could have worn this costume any
where of summer day, provided it
was as fresh and crisp as when I
saw it.

STAND ERECT.

i. Just look at the people you pass on
the street or in the cars. Look for the
man and woman with an erect car
riage, and think OF yourself. When
you pass a mirror look at yourself.
Try and get profile view. You will
soon realize how much better you look
BY holding your head up and your
shoulders back, and. by and by the
habit will be formed. Really there is
nothing that adds so much to mans
or woman's appearance as an erect and
graceful carriage.

CLUB NOTES.

DR.. David H. Reeder, Laporte Ind
Dear Doctor: Being a subscriber to
this paper and having read and bene-
flied by your Home Health Club lee
lures, 1 feel inclined to ask few
questions pertaining to my own case.
A recent lecture on throat troubles ex-
plains considerable of my trouble. For
years cold affects me in the throat
and very easily catch cold, being
subject to cold. feet. Have been told
by doctors that it is catarrh and bron-
chitis. Lately shortness of breath is
getting worse. In the mornings usu-
ally have to hawk and spit until clear
my throat or spit up phlegm, which
gives temporary relief. 1t seems to
come from head, throat and nose. The
phlegm is blush yellow; do not have
much hoarseness of voice, but a fire.
Quent tickling in throat is common,
and the shortness of breath gets worse
particularly going upstairs, or up a hill
side.
am IS years old, have worked in
silver mines in early days, and prob.
ably been exposed to powder smoke,
but not for the last 13 years. The al
titude of this place is from 5000 to
1000 feet high.
Il enjoy good health outside of the
ailments stated. Can eat hearty and
almost anything that others eat. but
might say am inclined to be little
costive. Have usually very cold feet.
Do not do much work. If I should ex-
ercise much it would cause snortness
of breath and palpitation of the heart.
Shortness of breath and tightness with
tickling in. throat and difficulty to spit
phlegm seem to be my trouble. feel
convinced that your advice would help
me. Very respectfully, O. A.
The asthmatic condition or short
ness of breath can to great extent be
overcome by careful treatment. How
ever, really think you ought to go to
a lower altitude. Aside from this. the
best you can do will be to follow the
course of treatment for asthma out
lined in the club lectures, and all OF
the symptoms you have described, es-
pecially the cold feet, will be over
come. This alone will sometimes cure
asthma, as the course of treatment
given in the book is excellent, while
the tissue elements which are lacking
ought to be supplied either through
food selection or direct. The scientific
principle on which they are based is
that disease will disappear when the
tissue elements, whose lack causes it's
existence, are supplied. I believe that
the shortness of breath described is of
an asthmatic nature, although it is
partially due to poor circulation, as
are the cold hands and feet. You do
not give sufficient description of your
costiveness to allow of diagnosis OF
that ailment. but / am sending you, by
mail, a little booklet which will aid
you in deciding the matter yourself.

The r. E. Magnus Players, who are
to present "Wyoming," their latest
success, at the Turner on Sunday,
October 15, are company of class
not often seen in ihis country, either
in the large cities or small towns. Mr..
Magnus and his associates have the
distinction of being the first and only
professional company of actors ever
invited to appear by the faculty of the
University Of Chicago in Mandel Hall,
one of the most beautiful halls in
America. They also feel proud Of the
honor Of being the only dramatic CON-
pany ever allowed to play in Watkins
Hall, Nashville, Tenn. This historic
building eminently adopted for dram
attic and musical entertainments. was
presented to Nashville by the eccen-
trio John Watkins nearly half IL. cent
ury ago Since that time nearly all
the famOvs musical stars of the world
who have visited this country and
many of our leading orators have beer
granted the use Of the main auditor
ium by the trustees. Many applca-
tions have been made by dramatic
celebrities for the hall but they have
always been refused. Last year how
ever, when the Magnns players were
touring the south playing Every
man." they were rendered the use of
Watkins Hall for eight performances
the Offer being promptly accepted.
With the late Augustin Daily the Mag
nus players share the distinction of be-
ing the only professional dramatic
companies engaged to appear in the

until the five yard line was reached.
when Woyaher was pushed over the
line for touch down. Motzkus kicked
goal. During the half two more touch.
downs were made by Kumm and Motz-
kus. The half ended with the score %
to in Northwestern;s favor. Fumbles
were frequent and at times unusually
costly. Motzkuss' kicking, Kumm's
defensive playing, and Woyaher's car
rying the ball were features of the
game. The lineup was as follows:
