His Brother Dead 100 Years.

Can any of our readers truthfully de-
clare that they once had a brother, but
that he died $50 years ago? asks
contributor to T. P.'s Weekly. I see
that there is at least one person IN the
world making such claim, and that
he recently swore to the fact in a court
Of law. The French contemporary from
whom quote adds that the Judge at
first thiught that the man was joking,
and called upon him to substantiate his
story.
He declared, as was afterward veri-
fed, that his father had married at the
age of nineteen, and had had one son.
who died within two days of his birth.
Becoming a widower, the father mar
ried again, in his seventy-ffth year,
and had then had another son, the
witness. This latter was nlnety-four
Mt the time of the trial. Adding nine
ty-four years to fifty-siX (the period
which elapsed between the the two
marriages. the result is exactly $50.

LcnIencr to College Th nc..

1.-THE difference in the public attitude
toward the doings of college boys and
other boys irritates me extremely"
said Herbert Van Dyke, who has been
an unofficial worker for the benefit Of
the street boys of New York for twenty
years.
Il happened TO be passing large
apartment house near college once
just as a fire broke out. Boys rushed
over from the college and interfered
with the work Of the fremen so that
they were actually prevented from
getting the fire under control until the
police arrived and used their clubs.
Another time sat in theatre in
a college town and saw college boys
throw a bomb on the stage in the midst
Of the ballet. 1t set the skirts Of three
ballet girls on fire.
"If the poor boys I work among did
practical joking of that sort they would
simply be jailed as young thugs and
assasslns. New York Press.

Yellow bedrooms are especially cool
and fresh looking in summer. Select

Poppies, tulips and the small roses are
to be had in wall papers. There
should be plenty of green foliage, and
the effect is better if the white CELL
ing be brought down a far as the pic
ture molding. which in turn should be
no higher than the tops of doors and
windows. With the yellow paper
green stained furniture is very good,
or white enamel may be used. In such
a room the narrow iron bed had q
covering of pale green sateen over
which was laid dotted swiss spread.
The furniture was white, and cush-

rug was of braided rags in several
shades of green.

Shirt Maist Sleeves.

There is no feature OF Il waist that
so marks its date as its sleeve and none
which is so important. Here are two
very excellent models, which will serve
to make any waist of last season up
to-date and which also can be utilized
for new material, being among the
latest and best that are shown.
No. is laid in inverted tucks which
are. stitched to give box pleated eff
feet, while No. is tucked and stitched
fiat. Both are gathered at the upper
edges, supplying the generous fulness
at the shoulder, which is so essential
to present styles. Linen and all wash
able materials, silks and woods, and
in fact every known fabric that is used
for waists are suited to the design.

the medium size for either model is

COMMERCIAL REVIEW.

r. G. Dun & Co.'S Weekly Review
Of Trade says
Although trade reports are still ir-
regular and in many cities below ex-
pectations, there has been improvement
in response to higher temperature and
less rain. Manufacturing activity is
fully maintained in textile fabrics, and
there is an enormous output of iron
and steel, despite some reduction from
last months record-breaking rate OF pro-
duction. Building operations are large
and materials in excellent demand. For
eign commerce for the past week at this
port shows a splendid gain, compared
with 1904, imports increasing $3t37,o44
and exports gaining $r,47o,3o5. All re-
turns for May make favorable compari-
sons with the same month last year, rail-
way earnings increasing 8 per cent,
while bank earnings rose 3G.3 per cent.
Textile manufacturers are in strong
position, buyers gradually appreclating
the changed situation. There is little
speculative buying, but more disposition
to provide for future requirements
Prices are very firm. Further weakness
has developed in packed hides, the only
supporting factor being the light sup
ply Of cowhides that are sought by tan
ners of upper leather Country hides
are in a relatively better position and
South American dry hides are hrmef
here than in Europe. Supplementary fall
contracts are still arriving at New Eng
land footwear factories from statesmen
in the West, and sample orders for
spring lines are also received.
Failures this week in the United
States are 2I6, against 1913 last week,
2II the preceding week and 227 the
corresponding week last year. Failures
in Canada number 20, against 2o last
week, 10 the preceding week and 20

Tho Country Hons.

In fitting up country homes at hr-
tie expense cheap furniture is often
purchased, the varnlsh scraped off. and
the pieces enameled white. With the
addition of pretty. plain brass handles
to the drawers the pieces present a re-
markably good appearance. There is
a patent preparation sold at all paint
stores which removes paint and var
