REMEMBERING.

Gay, do you remember the long ago, =
Or do YOU at last forget =. :
The meadows whore winds Of the South
- land blew,
And perfumed nights dew-wet
Are purple and soft and coaxing, too,
AS a mantle Of fairy weave,
And the whispering trees the moon shines
through " s
Where the night birds sit and grieve?
I remember it all; the wide spread oak
With its branches stretched afar;
1Ee lock in your eyes, the words you spoke.
The sky and the single star
That hung a-ciose to the crescent moon
AS 1t sailed through purple space;
remember the night birds plaintive
Groom,
The look on your upturned face
The city afar en- silhouette,
Inc blooms beneath your feet
The cricket's song seems sounding yet:
The jasmine's perfume sweet
Comes floating to me adown the wind
But yet-but yeti am old!
There are years, wide years, betwixt me
now
And you and the age Of gold.
The age Of b Ole. wcen the blood was red
surging resisiless tide!
And the feet impatient tc scale the heights
That the years held all untried.
All, well, we dream as an old dog hunts
In his sleep; but youth is fled!
Though it's sweet to remember the old, old
ways,
And joys Of days long dead

RAISING FRUIT BY STEAM.
French Growers Experimenting in
Hope Of Getting Two Crops
g. Year.

The French agricultural department
Is working on a series of experiments
suggested by fire occurring in one of
the rural districts, in which the great
er portion of a small town was con-
sumed.
The flames encompassed several
orchards, and it was found that such
of the trees as were not scorched by
the flames put forth a second set of
buds and were soon in full flower.
Through system of underground
steam pipes it is believed that two
crops season may be forced in the
south of France and that the yield of
the orchard may more than repay the
cost of fuel.
The experiments, says the New
York Herald, are designed to start
the budding in the early spring and to
protect the second product in the late
fall.
Orange raisers in Florida frequently
resort to huge bonf1res in order to
avert the loss of crops through sud-
den frosts and possibly steam-heated
orchards will become the proper caper
in the course of few years.

Lingerie waists blossom on every
tree, and an infinite variety Of them
there is. AS Dame Rumor says they
are to be worn until late in the fall,
it 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 a 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
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
gerie waist, and are very attractive in
summer, emphasizing the sheer1tess
of the materials. One waist had a
wide strip Of fine insertion down the
front, on either side were long rows
of tucks alternating with short clus-
tiers. At the shoulder a deep under
plat gave the proper fullness, for the
waist set well over the bust. This
plat was discovered" some years ago,
but it's 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
ly preferable to cheap imitation laces.
Even the best of the all-overs look
fussy rather than cool and fresh.
We noticed a cool-looking maid this
morning. A black silk skirt, a 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
handled affair Of white pongee. She
could have worn this costume any
where of summer day, provided it
was as fresh and crisp as when I
saw it.
Handles of parasols are very long

the narrowing breakdown of that poor
fellow whose contrition had led to a
confession of a weakness beyond cure,
and who was next day back at his old
trade-even that experience had been
of value to the wreck of a creature
toward whom he had been tender.
"A thief has a SOUL" The words
went ringing through his ears now as
he stood there at his window and
watched the moon struggling out from
the clouds over the lake.

clamored. He tried not to hear them.

Some Popular Linen Dresses

In England one can buy linen for
something like ten cents a yard. 1t
costs five times that and more here,
many times more for very good-but it
is worn this season by everyone.
White comes first in favor, and
then may be mentioned the gobelin
blue, cream and tans, delft blue, navy
blue, greens and raspberry shades.
Linen should always be well. shrunk
before it is made up, and If the shrink
ing is done at home this is the plan
to follow: Pour boiling water on the
goods, let stand until cool, hang up
carefully, the material pulled into
shape, and iron when still very damp.
This will insure against further
shrinking, and the ironing while wet
brings out the gloss that makes linen
so attractive. In making, have. the
pressing well done; tailor look is
the proper thing for the linen suit +
Some of the better sort, perhaps we
may say the majority, are made with
no trimming save straps of self MAJ
terial. A few very good ones are
trimmed with a heavy open work, have
elbow sleeves with turn-back cuff, and
girdles of silk instead of the belt of
linen or some wash trimming. These
are for linen costumes, thougS tho
coat suits are more severe. -
Some of the linen dresses have only
cuffs and collars OF openwork embrci-
derry, and occasionally heavy Irish
crochet is used. There, is quite Xix
ing for coHar and cuffs of contrasting
color; this is a feature Of the present
season. Skirts are short, but there is not
noticeable the rise in the back as last
year. If the skirt escapes tho ground
an inch in the front. it will be elevated
only an inch and half in the back.
now. y r - -
Coats for linen suits are made semi
fitting in the back, square box front
IL adorned with large pearl but
tons. The sleeves, very full at the
shoulders, are large and have plain
stitched cuffs. Skirts are not SO

some one spoken? The room was
quiet even as they had found it half
an hour ago. How had it happened?
Two hours before Ferguson came up
from the depot. While waiting for a
car a man came by whom he instinc-
lively marked for thief The man
stopped. perhaps to wait for car, but
he watched Ferguson. Ferguson met
his eyes frankly and then he felt that
he was wrong. Those were not a
thief's eyes. The man had a clean
cut, well-formed face and a mighty
chest. His clothes were neat, not of
the best material, but neat, all save
the hat, crush hat, drawn down low
in front. 1t was the hat that led Fer
guson tc think the man a thief. It
was not honestly ~~o-n.
The man suddenly walked straight
up to Ferguson and spoke. It was a
hearty voice and straightforward. The
story was old. Hungry, tired. no
money. You could hear as much a
hundred times any night, but not in
that language chosen, grammat-
teal, polite. There were marks of eood
breeding in it.
Ferguson remembered his own COM
ing to Chicago and how near he had
beef. to this same condition. He had
made so cents stretch over three days.
This was plausible story that the
man had told of his recent coming to
the city and his fruitless search for
employment in the fire insurance bust
ness. which was the vocation he best
knew

SUMMER GIRLS,

again, for which we may be thankful
we need not get our hats scraped
off now when friend gallantly
essays to save us the fatigue of car
rying the sunshade. Wash gloves have
ousted all others; mits and fingered
"handshuhe" are worn. It is the best
to have the gloves and stockings
match the costume rather than con-
.trast, and one should be very careful
to get right shades. Sometimes the
girl behind the counter will inform
you in Indifferent manner that it is
impossible to get certain shades in
silk gloves, but little searching at
the better stores will reward you with
a rainbow array from which to make
! selection. The dealers are supplied
with hose and gloves in every imagin-
able tone.
There are shown pretty shoes OF
black patent leather with white up
pers. Bits of white on the shoes are
novelty recently introduced, and are
quite an addition to the sober black to
which We are accustomed. Canvas
CATERS are an excellent novelty, the
old time wooden CATERS were entirely
too heating. There is many a cool
day when the low shoe is trifle too
cool, and the canvas "spat" will come
in well.
Underclothes deserve a word, for
there is noticeable a decided change
in summer underwear. Everything is
made Of ,softest materialsand there is
more simplicity Of appearance; not~so
much lace and insertion and beading,
but finer, less snowy work Embroi-
derry in white, eyelets and scallops
in white, make these affairs cost
money, but the appearance is quite
simple. AS rule the lingerie waists
open in the back, and the opening of
the corset cover necessarily should be
hidden. The fullness at the back Ia
drawn down in small tucks.
Very pretty pongee petticoats are
offered for sale, the first cost that Of a
good silk petticoat; but they make q
more economical investment, wash so
beautifully and wear so well. The
gray silk pongees are especially good.
And by the way, gray silk stockings
this year are lovely, in the many tones
of gray that the season shows in CO..
tunes.

worn with silk .!irts long coats oil
linen matching in color: Shoes and
stockings of like shade add to the style
Of the costume, especially in browns
and tans. And speaking of footwear,
there are now offered the most attrac-
tive embroidered white canvas shoes,
which, worn with open-work stockings,
complete q white embroidered costume
very prettily. Our grandmothers, you
remember, had great fondness for
white hosiery, and we are coming to
appreciation Of what they approved. 4

TOBACCO.

An editorial in Good Health says
THAT since Jean Nicot discovered.
nicotine, tobacco has had a hard name,
but recent chemical investigators tell
us the world has been on the wrong
track for generations, and that nicot-
inc has nothing to do with the tremors,
the nervousness and the other ills
which af1ict the habitual smoker. The
Injurious property is, it seems, carbon
| monoxide gas, which is the very con-
stituent that is dangerous in common
water gas. The smoker should know,
then, that in consuming one ounce Of
tobacco he produces one whole pint Of
carbon monoxide, which is a very fear
some thing. The cigarette, the object
of execration by all good men and
women, especially women, produces very
little of the monoxide, but if the prac-
tice of inhaling is followed, the deadly
gas goes straight to the blood in the
lungs, turns It pink and poisons it.
The cigar is the great producer of the
obnoxious gas, and would be more
harmful than the pipe were it not for
the pipes incurable filthiness.
Nicotine, according to some investi-
gators, is not present at all in tobacco,
but the scientists are agreed that there
Is something bad about tobacco what
ever its name may be. While the sci
entists quarrel about the effects Of to-
bacco, the sales are growing at so rapid
a rate all over the world that the peo-
pie seem to be rushing blindly to their
own destruction, unmindful and re-
CARELESS of their own doom. And the
hardened smoker believes that this is
a case where ignorance is bliss"

CLUB NOTES.

yMinnesota.-Dr. David H, Reeder,
Laporte, Ind.-Dear Doctor:-SI have
read your lectures and advice to the
sick with great interest. I have also
tried some OF your instructions, in a
case of influenza. l have girl IA
years old who had the above named
sickness. I followed your course Of
treatment very carefully, and it turned
out excellently, for which am very
thankful. Gratefully, Mrs. S.
Such letters as the above are always
very gratifying to me, and trust that
many of the readers Of this paper may
follow the example Of Mrs. s. and use
the simple home remedies of the Home
Health Club, thus saving expense, as
we'll as the danger of poisonous drugs.
| Janesville.-Dr. David H. Reeder,
Laporte, Ind.-Dear Doctor: I feel
prompted to avail myself of the privi-
lege which you give, to ask for infor-
nation concerning pimples on the face,
so annoying to a young person. I
know they go away IN time, but not al
ways until after years Of mental suf-
fering. Can they be gotten rid of, or.
must they be endured? The case I
| write of is where the general health
is good, seemingly not in need Of
drugs. kre outward applications OF
any good? If you WILL kindly tell ma
| about it, will follow your directions
| implicitly, and will let you know If
receive any benefit. Hopefully, B. S. !
In such cases usually advise dou-
BILE course Of treatment-both external
and internal, because such conditions
as you have described are as a rule the
result of impure blood, Indigestion, etc.
However, If, as you say, the general
| health is good, it may be that the ex-
ternal treatment alone will be effec-e
tual. I think, however, that you have
more or less constipation and your
skin is not sufficiently active. Copious
Eenemas should be used until you know
that the colon is free from fecal mat
ter. Externally. follow the directions
given in my private letter and also
take q cold hand bath every morning,
rubbing vigorously in order to increase
the activity of the skin Of the body.
Do not wash the face with soap. l.
should be glad, to have you write me Of
results, and hope you will in turn be-
come further interested in the club
work. Would be glad to have you be-
come an active member, us per the in-
vitation which l sent you. .@.
