The Fashions of the Day

true that the American woman Is
building up an individuality Of style
that bids fair to lessen the prestige
of the long-ruling Partisan?
We have recently had peep at
spring models, and, though 1t is some
what early to talk of fashions that are
to bloom late in the spring, we feel
tempted to let fall a word or two
anent soon-to-be shown designs. There
are to be some very smart walking
suits of the thrce-piece order, the fea-
ture that skirt and waist match and
that the jacket is separate affair;
for instance, there will be shirt-waist
suit of brown and blue check, the
checks small and neat, and worn with
this a acket of either blue or brown,
the whole making for harmony rather
than sharp contrast.
Brown, that color whose beauties
are from time to time brought for
ward, is now much to the fore as a
trimming. 1t has been found that 1t

that has marked the season at the
French capital
Again tempted to refer to spring
fashions, we would speak Of the fact
that there are going to be some very
attractive long-coat suits in silk. In
the same breath we would mention
that the short Elton coat will lead for
wrap and other costumes. In cloth

NOT LIKELY TO ESCAPE.
sarcophagus Was Heavy Enough to
Hold Remains of Napoleon
Down.

Henry Eignaud, secretary of the Amer
lean embassy at Paris, enjoys telling Of
an American who was being shown the
tomb of Napoleon, relates Success Maya
zine. AS the loquacious guide referred
to the various points of interest in con-
nec5icn with the tomb, the American
evinced the greatest interest in all that
was said.
This immense sarcophagus," detained
the guide, weighs 40 tons. Inside of that,
sir, is steel receptacle weighing u tons,
and inside of that is leaden casket, her.
metically sealed, weighing over two tons.
Inside of that rests a mahogany coffin
containing the remains of the great man."
For moment the American was silent,
as # in deep meditation. Then he said:
1T seems to me that you've got him
all right. If he ever gets out, cable me

BIRDS SCATTER FlSH/SPAvvN
Take Up the Eggs While Bathing
and Transport Them to
Prairie Ponds.

Senator Young asked Del Travis how
:. happened that catfish and sunfish
could be found in ponds on the prairie
or any place else where there was no
connection with running water and re-
ceived an explanation which is inter-
esting, relates the Topeka Capital.
Every boy knows that he can catch
"bullheads' in ponds which have not
had running water in them for years,
and the boys have had many different
ways of explaining it. The favorite
explanation of the boy is that it rains
fish sometimes.
1.-THE reason of it is this" said Mr..
Travis. 'The catfish and the sunfsh
lay their eggs in shallow water. In
fact, they always get as close to the
shore as possible to deposit their eggs.
The eggs are sticky substance and
when the birds get into the water to
take bath they get the eggs on them.
Then, they fly away and the eggs,
which really can hardly be called eggs
at the time they are in the first stage,
become dry. The bird then goes to
the first water it comes to and takes a
bath. This releases the eggs and they
settle in the pond. They hatch in a
short time and that accounts for the
bullheads in the ponds.
There is another way the eggs are
scattered. Many of the wading birds
get their feet and legs covered with
the substance and they transfer the
eggs in like manner. All other fish
in this state excepting the catfish and
the sunfish lay their eggs in water so
deep that the birds cannot disturb
them. This is true of the channel cat
fish and that is the reason the bullhead
is the only catfish found in the ponds. ="

escaped with his child, his wife being
at the revival meeting. Nothing was
saved.

Pretty Negligee and Underwear

to wear with lingerie blouse; much
of the set of the latter depends on the
underslip, and slips should be made
with that idea in view. They are cut
to have little fullness in front and
to fit in the back, the sleeves should
have considerable fullneSs at the
shoulder. The new lingerie waists are
very lovely, and all signs indicate
they will be popular for long time to
come. A very pretty one is made of
white crepe de chine trimmed with
Valenciennes insertion and frills and
large medallions of other lace. EN-
broidery on sheer net is pleasing
novelty in the way Of trimming for
these waists, and another variation is
a contrasting delicate color; pale pinks
and blues appear on soft cream
ground, and the effect is charming.

PAIN IN The JOINTS
Tortures Cease When Dr..
Williams Pink Pills Make
New Blood.

The first sign of rheumatism is fire.
quently a pain and swelling i'll one of
the joints. If not combated i'll the
blood, which is the seat of the disease,
the poison spreads, affecting other joints
and tissues. Sometimes rheumatism at
tacks the heart and is quickly fatal.
The one remedy that has cured
rheumatism so that it stays cured is DR..
Williams Pink Pills. These pills expel
the poison from the blood and restore
the system, SO that the poisonous matter
is passed off as nature intended.
Mrs. I. T. Pitcher, of No 100 Mon
mouth street, Newark, N. j., suffered
for about three years from rheumatism
before she found this cure She says:
sit began with a queer feeling in my
fingers. In little time it seemed as
though the finger joints had humps on
them and I could not get my gloves OH.
"Then it grew worse and spread to
my knees. could not stand up and
could not sleep nights. My suffering
was more than can describe. took
great deal of medicine, but nothing even
gave me relief until tried DR.. Williams
Pink Pills.
81 read an account Of cure in case
that was exactly like mine and my hus-
band got me some of the pills. I took
them for three weeks before really felt
better but they finally cured me. %
Mr. Pitcher, who is a veteran and
member of E. D Morgan Post, No. 3O7
of New York, substaptiates his wifc's
statement and says that she now walks
without difficulty, whereas year ago
he was compelled to push her about in
wheeled chair. Both Mr.. and Mrs.
Pitcher are enthusiastic in their praise
of DR. Williams Pink Pills.

The gown makers continue to turn
sut skirts in three lengths; the short,
practical Aae; the all-round length for
afternoon wear, which just touches
the ground; and the really long, long
all around, perhaps three inches lying
on the floor, the kind supposed to give
a statuesque appearance to the wear
er. The latter is generally becoming
and to be recommended for house
wear. Skirts are still sheath-like, per-
haps even more so than they have OF
late been; and there is not quite so
much concern for the flare at the bot
:om, although in some mysterious way
4 lot of fullness is attained.

Riot Call.

Duluth.-A riot call summoned the
Hibbing police to the Utica mine loca-
ton, where they found that desper-
ate fight between the three Austrian
factions there had resulted in the fatal
stabbing of Tony Bertoglatti, who is
now in hospital with eleven stab
wounds. Eleven arrests have been
made, all of the prisoners Austrians.
Angelic Jaensetti and Mary Berdo
were married at the mine location,
and one faction was represented among
the guests and the other two were not.
The latter butted in and riot fol-
lowed.

The soldier and the sailor are es-
pecially subject to catarrh. In the bar
racks and on the field, Peruna is found
equally efficacious to overcome this
physical enemy. If taken in time, it
will prevent colds from developing into
catarrh. Even after cold has settled
in some organ of the body, Peruna can
be relied upon as an efficacious remedy
to promptly overcome it.
Peruna will relieve catarrh. whether
acute or chronic, but few doses of it
taken in the first stages of the disease
will be more effective than when the
disease has become esta blished.

Nearly Fatal.

Mankato adam Johnson, eighty
eight years old, pioneer resident of
CRANKY township, almost lost his life
by an unusual incident. He recently
became resident OF North Mankato.
While coming from the cellar with a
jar of preserves, Mr.. Johnson tripped
and fell. The fruit jar WIS shattered
and one of the jagged pieces of glass
penetrated his wrist, severing large
artery, and causing an alarming loss
of blood. 1t was some time before the
the accident was discovered ond life
was nearly extinct before physician
arrived. After working over him for
several hours, the physician succeeded
in partially reviving the aged man,
and announced that they are hopeful
of his recovery.

Etiquette.

Etiquette is a mask, barrier, cloak.
a disguise, a pretense, a lie; it enables us
to hide cur real characters from each
other. 1t is acquired; it comes from the
head; courtesy is spontaneous, it comes
from the heart. The first has as much
in common with the second as has law
with justice, medicine with hygiene or
theology with sanctity.-Portland Oregon

Heavy Tonnage.

Duluth. Maj Charles L. Potter,
United States engineer in charge of
Lake Superior, issued his annual re-
port of the Duluth-Superior harbor,
and all Minnesota and Wisconsin
people, he declares will take pride in it.
The freight movement during 1905
was o2,576, las net tons of total value
of S196, Isl, 5s4. This is an increase of
361S per cent over the receipts and
shipments in 1904 and the increase of
valuation is more than $3s, ZOO, 900. The
increase in net freight tons for the
harbor last year was SO. 6 per cent over
1890.
Major Potter says in his report that
considering the mean monthly freight
movement during the season of navi-
cation, the Duluth-Superior practically
stands next to New York.

The invigorating air, dry and warm: the
altitude; the perfect natural drainage, all
combine to make the temperature as nearly
perfect as can be. 1t is possible to spend
most of each day, from November to March,
outdoors. The parks and plazas, the mar
gins of the creeks and rivers, the groves of
palm and magnolia, lose nothing of their
lustrous green during the winter months.
