o. A HEARTY LAUoA
Better Than Medicine, Declares Eng
lish Physician, in Talking Of
Outburst OF Merriment.

An English physician, in search
Of remedies for human ills, finds
that laughter stands very high in
the list Of prophylactics. The ef'
feet of mere cheerfulness as a
health promoter is well known,
but an occasional Outburst Of
downright laughter is the heroic
remedy. 1t is a matter of every
day experience, says our English
authority, that one feels the bet.
ter for a good laugh, an explosion
Of laughter being in truth a nerve
storm, comparable in its effect 10
a thunderstorm in nature, doing
good by dissipating those Oppres-
sive clouds of care which some
times darken the mental horizon"
This authority assures us that the
memorable adage, Laugh and
grow fat,n rests on a sound philO-
sophical basis. Portly people are
not given TO laughter because they
are fat; they are fat because they
laugh.

There is more catarrh in this sec
ton of the country than all other
diseases put together, and until the
last few years was supposed to be
incurable. For a great many years
doctors pronounced it a local disease
and prescribed local remedies, and
by constantly failing to cure with
local treatment, pronounced it in
durable. Science has proven ca
tarrh to be a constitutional disease
and therefore requires constitutional
treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure,

CHAT Off THE BAT. !.

The game was marred by an
other display of temper on the part
of Lemon, who in the ninth inning
was so intent in his desire to hit the
ball for a homer and tie the score
that when he struck out, he lost his
head, and threw his bat with such
force toward the bench that it went
over the heads of the players and
landed among the spectators in the
grand stand, painfully injuring
George Gribbler, Emil Fry and
Albert Charles. That some one was
not killed or seriously injured by
the heavy bat is a wonder. Several

SILKS Are Sill Much Worn

Foulard silks are said not to be so
sma-t this season as usual and yet every
woman who makes a point Of being
well gowned always includes at least
two of these most attractive frocks
IN her summer wardrobe. For the
knockabout useful gown for every day
wear India silk Is far and away the
most satisfactory Of any that can be
worn in summer weather. The material
rs light and cool. II a dark ground be
chosen it will not soil easily is prac-
tically dust proof and in spite OF it's
light weight will look far better at
the end of the season than many a
much heavier material.
Cooler Than Linen.
1t Is cooler than linen or in fact
than any other summer fabric unless
lined with tafreta; and while a taffeta
drop skirt adds quality to the smart ef-
feet a percaIine lining with a wide silk
fiounce is excellent. AS a rule the foul
ard gowns of this season are on the
practical order and are made with short
skirts of which there are many differ
ent STYLES to choose. There are side
and box pleated models. circular (not
to be rashly attempted by a poor dress
maker) trimmed with fine taYeta pleat-
fngS in narrow width and with narrow
braid All the skirts are wide around
the foot but fit close around the hips.
BlouSeS are not considered smart
this season and surplice waists have
in foulard for white chemisettes and
cuffs so easily be laundered and
the gown kept looking neat and trim.

may be worn with an all-white morn
ing gown or with a blouse trimmed IN
old rose ribbons. Imitation amethyst
strands made in either the light or dark
color are popular with older women for
morning wear, as are jet beads, which
many consider the handsomest strands
shown. They are such favorites that
even young women are wearing them.
For Morning Wear.
Agate-1ike heads in a delicate smoked
ivory tint harmonize splendidly~with a
pongee house gown, while strands Of
large or small crystals and others that
look like garnets, rubies, and topaz are
to be used with morning blouses trim
med in the corresponding shades OF reds
and blue.
The necklaces worn for luncheon and
afternoon are a combination of the SIM
pie stra ands of beads for morning and the
elaborate Heckiets for evening wear. In
these, as IN the strings of beads. the
color scheme Is carried out SO that the
stones used match the shade of the
wearer's iTock. A new style for lunch
con or afternoon to be worn at the
base of the throat with a gown trim
med in blue has topaz ornaments about
the size of beans cut fiat, with six or
eight sides and set in silver at inter-
walls of an inch apart, and joined to a
silver chain by tiny silver links AT the
top and bottom of each setting. A SINH
lar chain in dull gold set with prettily
cut coral beads looks well with a dress
trimmed in old rose ribbons.

FOR THE FLOORS
Ideas for the Summer Piazza-Rag
Rugs Hold First Place.

For the summer piazza floor covering
rag rugs hold first place 1t seems a
bit strange that they should De more
popular than grass rugs. for the latter
certainly are cooler. Nevertheless. the
rag rugs come in sucn pretty soft color
iuss that they make a decided addition
to the outdoor nving-room. They are In
nothing different from the rag carpets
that the women of long ago used TO
weave, except that perhaps the various
colors that are put into each rug are
more harmonious than was the case In
those days, when all the ragbag REM
nants Were utilized.
No summer piazza is perfectly appoint
ed If 1t is fioWerless, and this fact has
come to be so widely recognized that
many f1rst-class florists make speciality
now of giving fragrant finishing touches
to the furnished veranda.

stone ledge, which to a great extent has
taken the place OF the old wooden rail-

this instance was of Val. of the same
width, through which button-hole spaces
were cut and worked. Wide satin wash
ribbon was run through and tied in a
loose full bow. Just below the beading
were set, all the way around the yoke
and across the shoulder seam of the
sleeve, square motifs of fine lace. The
front fullness below the yoke was con-
fined by means of a wide cluster of
fine tucks reaching to the waist line. At
either side of these tucks inch wide

SUMNER WRAPS.
Thin Evening Cloaks Are Pretty and
Fascinating.

summer evening wrap must be in
every way as pretty and fascinating as
cloak designed for mid winter, the
only real difference between the two
garments being the weight. One is,
however, by no means sufficient, for
on warm nights light silk chiffon
cloth is alone possible. while there will
be numberless evenings even during

White Background.
The white background with figures in
light colors make up best IN the more
elaborate gowns and one especially at
tractive model is seen in a cream white
ground with an irregular design in
bright blue with trimmings of bands Of
white taffeta and great deal OF white
Valenciennes lace. The surplice folds
have bands of white taffeta. the cherni-
settle is oe the lace and the elbow
finished with double ruffies of lace. A
wide hounce mas the folds of silk and is
edged with the lace, and the whole ap-
pearance of the gown Is very light and

and accordion pleated, but they lack the
smart appearance, as a rule, that the
pattern silks possess and which, In spite
of the constantly reiterated statement
that they have been superseded by the
