PARIS.

Just now the boulevards and the Bots
de Boulogne, the cafes and the theaters
are filled with women all brand new in
sunshine finery. And never In the
world have fashions been so saucy and
self-assertive or woman-kind so bent
upon making the most of life. That s
Paris and New York. 1t is different in
London, where occurrences attains
its best success-and no English maid
need regret the possession Of her pecu-
liar characteristic. To be "positivery
French just now a woman must wear
a wee bitt of a hat perched upon a.
mass of wavy hair and tilted down to
the very tips of well-kept eyebrows.
All the trimmings must be in the back.
and there can't very well be too much
of it. And it must be bright and-per-
ky. 1 can think of no better word to
express the necessary crisp jauntiness
of it; and the face beneath 1t must
wear a look Of eXpectant happiness, else
it will become an incongruous creation.
Then, too, the gown must be in keep
ing. Something bright and tight and
braided The skirt must be short
enough to disclose a pair Of pretty feet
in high-heeled shoes of the same color,
and the whole being inside these re-
markable clothes must exhale cheerful
ness. This is the French girl in the
yellow sunshine on the Paris boule-
wards. l didn't dream of writing a
fashion letter." but one cannot ignore
the Parisienne in connection with the
subject of Partisan sunbeams she re
fleets such loads of them.-Eleanor

FACTS ABOUT kRYPToKS.

Kryptok lenses should appeal to the
eyes OF everyone on account of the
elegance Of their appearance. We
agree with you, who have known only
the old style bifocal, that it is not
pleasing in appearance or satisfactory
in service. The Kryptoks are a boon
to every wearer of b~ifocals. They ap-
peal to those particularly who, as a
matter Of pride, have put off the wear
ing of glasses. Kryptoks are worn
with ase and comfort, and the change
of focus is made without apparent
effort, they readily adjusting itself
from long to short focus without in
convenience. The advantage of al
ways being able to see, if you have
your glasses on, is of no small consid-
Grafton.
Kryptoks are the perfected results
of years of expensive experiments,
and will no doubt eventually supplant
all other forms of bifocals now so
commonly used. If interested. write
to the Columbian Bifocal Co., Temple
Court, Denver, Colo, for their book
let, which will give you full informa-
ton about these wonderful lenses.
The McCook tribune. (McCook, Neb.) 1886-1936, 1906-05-25

A certain lady who wished to have
some fun at the expense Of an agent
who had ofttimes solicited her to in
sure herself and family, asked him on
one occasion If he would insure the cat.
b agent, to the establishment and no
small amusement Of some friends,
promptly offered to do so, provided she
paid the first premium down. The
lady, still thinking to hoax him, ex-
pressed her willingness to do so, and
placed a shilling on the table. The
agent quickly produced a proposal,
filled it in and obtained her signature
while those present were on the tiptoe
Of expectancy as to what was to fol-
low.
Now, madam, with your permission,
may I see the cat?"
Certainly" she replied, at the same
time pointing to a glass case which
contained the stuffed remains Of the
poor defunct cat.
A chorus Of derisive laughter burst
from all present, but to their dismay
the agent turned, bowed politely, at the
same time picking up the shilling, and
exclaimed:
When that cat dies, madam, kindly
call at u office and claim the insur-
ance money. Good morning."-London
Telegraph.

h First Stove.

The most important uses of fire were
taught by fire itself. AS the primitive
mar stood neal the flames of the burn
ing tree and felt their pleasant glow he
learned that fire may add to bodily
comfort, and when the flames swept
through a forest and overlook a deer
and baked it he learned that fire might
be used to improve the quality of his
food. The hint was not lost. He took
a burning torch to his cave or hut and
kindled him a fire on his floor of earth.
dwelling filled with smoke, but he
could endure the discomfort for the
sake of the fires warmth and for the
sake Of the t~oothsomeness Of the cook
ed meats. After a time a hole was
made in the roof of the hut, and
through this hole the smoke passed out.
Here was the first stove. The primi-
tive stove was the entire house, the
floor was the fireplace and the hole in
the roof was the chimney. The word
