Child Saves a Train.

Altoona, Pa.-Little Wallace Moore,
aged eight, barefooted and ragged. the
son of a farmer living near Osceola,
Ii miles southeast of here, with rare
presence of mind for one of his years
saved a passenger train on the Tyrone
division of the Pennsylvania railroad
from certain disaster and probably
prevented injury, if not death, to 128
passengers.
The lad, while playing about the
railroad tracks which run near his
home, noticed that a switch leading &c.
a spur, at the end of which was an
embankment. had been opened.
Fastening to 4 clear stretch of road,
he stationed himself in the middle of
the tracks and breathlessly awaited the
approach of the train. He swung his
arms, and, grabbing his hat. waved it
madly. Engineer Franks becs me
alarmed when the boy showed no signs
of leaving the track. and quickly APP
plying the emergency brakes stopped
the train within a few feet of where
the boy was standing

gerie hat we have seen this season It
was of some soft creamy lace, the
material maphap cotton, which but
made the hat softer, more shapely;
the lace was put on over pink silk
foundation that just family blushed
through the heavy mesh, and brought
out the color in the young glrls
cheeks. The only trimming was some
liberty-silk ribbon of pale pink loosely
fastened across the front of the brim
and crswn, and the hat was faced With
shirrings Of pale pink maline.
There was a neat little frock OF
Delft-blue cotton, square neck back and
front of fms white embroidery. The
shoes were 81 blue canvas; the gloves,
hat and linen parasol of white.

WHAT SHALL GIRLS ARE WEARING.

outing suits. Sailor hats simply
trimmed are liked for common wear.
The lingerie hats are not so suitable
for occasions where rough play rules.
Thin frocls for the girls are made
generally with the yoke, and we may
say right here that the dropping
shoulder is found more becoming to
small femininity than the perked up
square shoulder affected by grown-ups.
Guimpes with bishop sleeves abound.
and are not hard to make. They give
dainty look to a childs frock and
save washing, in that there may be
two or three sets to a froclz, and these
small pieces are not so hard to do up
as a whole dress.
When the little maid is to be very
much dressed up-which should not
happen oftep-she may wear q be-
laced thin white over a colored slip,
and should carry with this when out
for promenade parasol whose lin
ing or outside repeats the color Of the
slip.
We saw a little man the other day
that attracted many admiring eyes as
he sat in a suburban train unconscious
that he was the observed of all obserV-
ers. He wore a broad-shouldered light
covert overcoat, and large black pat
ent-leathern sailor set well down on
his yellow hair. His black ties and tan
shoes protruded from the manly over
coat and made one remember he was
really baby. Boys I%othes now are
not fussy at all, the nlSAey is put in
the materials and fashion ST the gar
ments.
When a two-piece suit is selected for
the girls frock, the little skirt should
be gored. It has more style, hangs
prettier than straight petticoat. FOR
cool days and plain dresses, guimpes
are made quite plain of heavy ma
terial, pique being favorite. Leather
belts of bright colors look well with
these frocks, though white wash-belts
are also used. The fashion Of coicred
collar and cuffs for the white linen or
piuue is followed as with the elders,
and is a pretty and becoming fashion.
The lingerie hats, and many straw
braids for small girls are of the Char
lotte Corday model introduced last
year. Some poke bonnetS are seen,
but they have sort of forced pictur-
sequences that the mob-caps do not
suggest. Hats are of medium size for
the cAildren; not very small, and not
cart-Nheels.

CHINA A POULTRY COUNTRY
Farmers Of the Orient Handle Enor-

at One Time.

The keenest of poultry farmers is, as
Mr.. Chamberlain once said Of himself
in another connection, "a child in these
matters as compared with the poul=
try farmers of China. A traveller pass
ing through the province of Chekiang
a few weeks ago was struck with the
enormous number of young chickens
carried In the farmers carts he met IN
the T'int'al country. He made inquiries
on the subject, and at length he was
asked by poultry farmer to go and
inspect his rearing arrangements. The
plant deals with 10000 eggs at time
and the average product is 5000 chicks.
The arrangements are simple and in
expensive, but they include opportuni-
ties for the scientific examination o.
the eggs in the course of incubation,
and it is amusing to hear that where
the eggs on examination through the
testing holes do not show signs of fer
tilization at the end of the fourth day,
"they are Immediately discarded to be
sold cheap"

NAMES BEST DOCTOR
MR.. BAYSSON PUBLISHES RESULTS
OF VALUABLE EXPERIENCE.

A Former Pronounced Dyspe.'tic He No~
Rejoices in Perfect Freedom from
Miseries of Indigestion.
Thousands of sufferers know that the
reason why they are irritable and de-
pressed and nervous and sleepless is be-
cause their food does not digest, but how
to get rid of the difficulty is the pnzzling
question.
Good digestion calls for strong diges-
tive organs, and strength comes from a
supply of good rich blood For this
reason Mr.. Baysson took DIR. Williams
Pink Pills for the cure of indigestion.
"They have been my best doctor, he
says. 81 was suffering from dysp epsia.
The pains i'll my stomach after meals
were almost unbearable. My sleep was
very irregular and my complexion was
sallow. AS the result of using eight
boxes of DR.. Williams Pink Pills, about
the merits of which I learned from
friends in France, 1 have escaped all
these troubles, and am able again to take
pleasure i'll eating"
A very simple story, but if it had not
been for DR.. Williams Pink Pills it
might have been tragic one. When dis
comfort begins with eating, fills up the
intervals between meals with pain, and
prevents sleep at night, there certainly
cannot be much pleasure i'll living. A
final general breaking down must be-
merely question of time.
Mr.. Joseph Baysson is native of
Aix-les- Bains, France, but now resides
at No. 2439 Larl1in street, San Francisco,
Cal. He is one of great number who
can testify to the remarkable efficacy of
DR.. Williams Pink Pills in the treatment
of obstinate disorders of the stomach.
If you would get rid of nausea, pain or
burning in the stomach, vertigo, ner-
vousness, insomnia, or any of the other
miseries of dyspeptic, get rid of the
weakness of the digestive organs by the
use of DR.. Williams Pink Pills. They
are sold by druggists everywhere.
Proper diet is, of course, great aid i'm

Old Couple Divorced After Living To-

HAD NOT SPOKEN SINCE 'S4
Uncle Ham" and Aunt Julia" Grubbs Re-
fused to Settle Their Long Standing Dit

at the Old Lady's Request-The
Parents of Six Children.

Lawrenceburg, Ind.-One of the odd
est divorce cases ever tried in this coun-
try was recently decided by Judge
George E. Downey in this county.
The principals in this strange case
were aged IS and so years, respectively,
the man being the senior. The couple
were married 81 years ago, but though
they had lived together constantly all
of that time, and had raised family of
six children, they had not spoken to
each other for q years.
Such is the peculiar ending of the
romance of Uncle Ham and Aunt Julia

of Il years would be healed by time are
more than disappointed. Aunt Julia

care to see. Let the child get
its clothes dirty; but act the part of wis
dom and provide it with things that will
bear Tubing.
The smartly-dressed child Of the day
has, above all things, an appearance of
freshness; a well-washed air, we may
say. Everything from bonnet to hose
can be put in the washtub; there is no
excuse for spots and soiled appearance.
The small miss wears the lingerie hat,
made of muslin or embroidery, and this
is easily taken apart and cleaned, easily
put together again.
We have in mind a very daintily
dressed maid; her frock was of pale blue
dimity trimmed with touch of white
insertion and some narrow lace; her hat
was a pale blue muslin whose only trim
ming was some looping of pale pink lib
erty silk ribbon across the front; her
stockings and low shoes were pale blue.
More serviceable shoes might be chosen,
the stockings then either blue or tan.
There are summer coats of heavy

good ones of linen and of crash. If wool
coats are used, they should be light
weight and have wash collars and cuffs.
Big pearl buttons are liked for these
summer wraps, and preferably are the
sort that fasten on with rings, which can
be removed when the garment is washed
Calico frocks are in fashion for chill
dren, and very good practical fash
ion it is. They are so pretty, too, with
their pipings and white frills, and a
bit of scarlet is liked on frockS of dull
color. Collars are first of all comfort
able, many just large limp ones of sailor
sort, and with these is used tie
of soft silk. Seersuckers, which "do
up" SO easily, are again in vogue; there
seems a marked return toward sim
plicity in children's frocks.
Russian suits for boys are liked as
well as ever. The fashions for small
men do not change much.
Elbow sleeves are much worn. The
smaller girls have but a wee puff at the
shoulder. Little coats edged with white
frills are used, the checked cottons for
older misses, and worn with white
waists and suspender straps make nice
