until it's sheen was gone and a dull yellow
oolored every lock was not beautiful with
a tiara perched on 1t, even IL the tiara were
bogus. Nor did a ( eckled nose and dark
brown arms look well against a back
ground of white tulle.
Such results Ct summer nave their effect
on the attire Of the girl who a to be
mcst characteristic OF the season. So
the girl of his ummer takes mora pre-
cautions.
The locks no longer dry up in the sun
nor do the arms tan like pale leather In
its rays. A srnbonn t or q broad brimmed
hat keeps the light and gloss in thu hair
and the sleeves are on ocoasio ally turned
up.
In other resp rts the summ-r girl away
from Newport shows many OF the charac-
~teristics that have marked summer dress
in man this year. She is content with
few clothes.
In Newport what she does wear will be
as expensive as he best dressmaker can
make it. Her hand embroidered shirt
waist will be fine enough in the quality Of
it's linen to be almost transparent without
the a sistanoe Of tn peekaboo apertures.
With its fine embroidery the cost may
easily range from $50 to 500.
The tailor made duck .uit will not be
likely to cost less than 500 il cut by one Of
the cracks in that line. There will not DO
much expensive detail in the rest Of tho
costume, to Judge by her ppearanoe a.
she moves.
The summer girl In less formal places
initiates her richer sister even II she wears
only machine embroidered shirt waists
and ready-maded duck skirts. They are moro
suited anyhow to her summer pose.
1t is like that Of her men friends-careless-
ness in dress IL not absolute untidiness.
The chances are that as she walks up from
the beach her white duck skirt will show
the marks Of salt water that got OF there Q
week ago when she went out sailing In q
high wind. Down the front Of her shirt
waist there may still be faint traces OF the
soda water that dripped on it when she and
some Of the other girls walked up that night
with the men who came In on the yacht and
took soda water at the village drug store.
The sunbonnet may ever droop over one
eye from the effects of the bath II had the
day it blew overheard.
Then the chances are also that there
will be pins in one or two places where q
girl less uncompromisingly summary would
have stopped to take a few stitches. She
will be found as much enslaved to the brass
safety pin as her partner.
1t will hold the skirt together behind
and do service where the buttons suddenly
disappeared from the back Of the shirt waist
that closes up on that side. Then she will
have n stuck In the so-called stock that
is bound about her neck like an old fashioned
label about a bottle.
There are few details Of the summer
toilet in which she differs from the partner
Of her pleasures. They have apparently
both followed the same rule this year. II
seems to require that they should look
sporty and thoroughly summary, and in
those two qualities lies the secret OF smart
ness in the summer Of 1905.

For instance, our share Of ground is one

must come next spring, set up a tent and
begin gardening, -that 30 few Of the hun
dred persons now cultivating a half aero
or more on this farm are living on the prem

The principal reason Is this. Lots Of the
very people the owners Of this farm most
want to reach have not yet heard anything
about it, or at least they had not heard Of It
last spring, when the farm was started.
They don't read the newspapers, 30 they
didn't see It advertised.
Then, many Of those who did apply
meant at the time to move for the sum-
mer to the farm and afterward found 1t
impossible to carry out hat plan. while
others asked for the privilege Of a piece OF
ground to farm. ever though they could not
move their family up here.
AS the scheme was so new and there was
no use Of having any ground lying idle 30 one
was turned away who could be supplied.
Therefore I suppose some people are using
plots who can very well afford to buy all the
vegetables they need.
Next year things will be different, Of
course, because the farm will be better
known then. No, not a quarrel or a case

Marshall county gives promise this
year of producing bumper corn crop.
From all sections of the county there
come reports of the excellent stand,
fine appearance and general thriftiness
of the crop. The dry weather Of June,
while it may have been detrimental to
some crops, was just the thing the corn
needed as it gave the farmers a chance
to thoroughly cultivate and clean it.
The rains which followed have sent it
shooting upward rapidly, and while it
is considered that corn which is knee
high Fourth of July week is good corn.
the average in Marshall county is
much higher than that.
While the corn has been benefited
greatly by recent rains, much delay
and some loss was caused to the hay
crop, which because Of the early dry
weather is short. Much of the hay
was down, and the rains which follow
ed one another almost every day pre-
vented it being put under cover.
Oats, while short on straw, promises
to be a good crop, but any great
amount of rain during the next few
weeks would make harvesting difficult.

Thomas flew out to center. Giffen

Men and Butterflies.

j. G. Phelps Stokes, in an address to
an East Side audience, spoke of the
duty of husbands.
Husbands are too apt" he said, ito
pose and buster and deceive. to pre-
tend to their wives that they are
grander and finer and more powerful
than is actually the case.
Husbands have not changed, in
fact, since Solomons day. The tale OF
Solomon and the butterfly is as appli-
cable now as it was thousands of years
ago. Therefore, / will tell 1t to you.
"A butterfly and his wife sat on a
rose bush In conversation. The butter
lily boosted and his wife listened rev.
erently. The sun shone and soft airs
swayed the flowers which exhaled del
icate perfume. The butterfly, proud
and happy as he swung among the
roses told larger and larger tales of his
own greatness

Now 1t happened that Solomon at
that moment was walking in the rose
garden. Solomon understood the
speech Of all living creatures. He over
heard the butterfly, and accordingly he
ordered that it be brought before him.
'Sirrah,' said Solomon to the trem-
bling butterfly, what do you mean by
saying that with three stamps of your
foot you could overturn my golden
temple?
"'Pardon great king said the but

followed him, unperceived.
and the incorrigible butterfly as
soon as he thought himself out of the
royal presence, put up his hand, puffed
out his chest, and flew back to his
wife with the staggering air Of great
hero.
"'What did the king want with you

1T seems he had got wind somehow
of my ability to overturn his temple
