DONE IN BROWN.

Very effective is a brown broadcloth
redingote suit. the coat of which
reaches to within four inches Of the
edge of the walking skirt.
The coat Is lined throughout with
white taffeta, and it buttons up Single
breasted) with dozen velvet buttons
trimmed with silver, in the dark an
tique effect 1t is open up the back
of the skirt nearly to the waist line,
and is fitted with three tabs and three
buttons by which is may be fastened
together.
1t has hip pockets, this jaunty gar
ment. and stitched velvet facings finish
the collar and cuffs. An inlaying of
white broadcloth further adorns the
collar. The seams of this garment,
which at the front replace the darts,
are carried straight up to the shoulders,
and the corresponding seams in the
back of course join them exactly. This
is altogether smart and tailory in effect.

THE MORNING TOILET.

1t is fine tribute TO Il woman when
man was heard to say: Il always think
of my wife as q morning glory; she
looks so bright and pretty at the break
fast table" 1t pays wives and moth
ers and sons and daughters to be care
impression is likely to be lasting; so
greet every one in the morning looking
fresh, sweet and attractive.
Great truth is contained in the senti-
ment:
We make careful thought for the stranger,
And have smiles for the sometimes guest;
But oft for our own
The careless gown,
Though we love our own the best.
In this day and age there is no excuse
for women appearing before their fam
lilies in soiled and uDattractive morn
ing costume. Dainty materials may be
had so reasonably. A little lace and
ribbon leads the dainty and sheer ap-
pearance which gives the inviting
touch, and apron and sleeve protectors
insure cleanliness, if preparing break
fast must be taken into consideration.
These may be slipped off during the
meal hour, and self-respect is sus-
tanned and also the admiration of the
homes dearest and best.

oLD-FAsuIoNED BEAR HUNT.

The other day information was
brought to the Traffic Superintendent
of the Muar State Railway that bears
We're destroying the cocoanut trees
near the fourth mile on the railway at
a kampong called PART Bakar
They climb to the top of q young
tree and with their powerful claws
tear away the young leaves and then
proceed to devour the inside of the tree,
called the cabbage.
Mr.. L. went to the scene on his hand
car, armed with Snider carbine.
A young bear suddenly dashed out
close to one of the Javanese and he
slashed at it with his parang. The
blow enraged the bear and it event
for the Javanese, who climbed the
nearest tree. The bear proceeded to
follow him up the tree. Mr.. L. was
taking aim at the bear when. as he
thought, one of his men shook him by
the shoulder. Mr.. l.. told his disturber
to get out"
He felt himself being pulled about
rather roughly and on looking over his
shoulder was astonished to see huge
bear with one big paw on each of his
shoulders and its gaping mouth almost
touching his neck. 1t was impossible
to use the rife, and Mr.. l.. drew his
hunting knife and plunged it into the
side of the bear, just under the shout
der The blade penetrated the brute's
heart, and it rolled over. endeavoring
to tear out the knife. The Malays and
Javanese ran up and slashed the bear
until life was extinct.
In the mean time the first bear was
still climbing up after the Javanese,
In his terror the Javanese dropped
right on top of the bear. This fright.

ARRANGING OSTRICH PLuMEs.

When q moderately long ostrich
feather Is shown as trimming, it is
more often than not attached to the
crown and allowed 10 sweep over the
back of the hat. 1t Is so with the
long feathers adjoining a felt hat. the

ly waved in soft gentle curves. Felt
and feathers are both of a deep rich
purple, and also the double band of
MORE and satin ribbons that enriches
the crown and is tied in front in a
careless bow at the foot of the feather.
But the different textures exhibit the
colors in slightly different shades.
Quite different arrangement is
adopted for a capaline. the rim of

back. In this case two half-long
feathers are set against the upturned
back of the brim and their tips cur!

FAIR EXCHANGE.

Indian nature was about the same
In 1876 as it was in 1904, says the au-
thor of The Trail of Lewis and
Clark" In illustration of this he tells
of time when Lewis and Clark, on
their journey of exploration toward
the Northwest, found that their stock
of merchantable property was exhaust
ed, and they created a new fund by
cutting off the buttons from their
clothes, and adding Walls and small tin
boxes to their stores. With this mer-
chandise two men went out on a trad
ing expedition and returned to camp

we were rather a gloomy set of men.
We were month behind time our

horse feed was gone, the grazing was
worthless. we were out of money, and
there was no way to get more. We
felt that we were in rather serious

soon found that they had store of
barley and corn, and an exchange was
quickly effected for certain surplus
provisions that we had, and the poor
horses had full meal.

CARE OF CLOTHES.

Don't be careless in putting on and
taking off or putting away your clothes,
as much of their beauty and life de-
pend upon their care.
After removing a dress remove all
extras in the way of beauty pins, ia
bots, flowers, etc, that are not a part
of the dress and permanently attached.
Variety is not the only reason why
1t is best to have changes. 1t is real
economy, as clothes need rest
1t is economy, says the Philadelphia
Telegraph, to buy good clothes, but
not extravagant. Care keeps good ma
terial and well-made clothing in shape;
poor ones will not respond even to good
care.
All clothes keep in shape better if
properly folded and padded. In put

TRANSFERRING THE FLAG.

In the Battle of Lake Erie. in 1918.
when Commodore Perry defeated the
British and captured their entire fleet,
the flagship Lawrence WAS shattered
by the guns of the English. and Com
modore Perry was obliged to transfer
his flag to the Niagara In "Commo-
dore Oliver Hazard Perry the author
refers to this transfer as 1.-THE sub
FINEST passage in the epic OF Erie"
From the masthead of the helpless
Lawrence the big blue burgee. the
white-lettered bugle-call upon an azure
field had come tluttering down. The
pennant followed, but the Stars and
Stripes remained. 1t was not then u
surrender, as the enemy had thought.
What was it? The next moment fur
nished a reply, for out from under the
lee of the battered hulk darted a small
boat, propelled by oars in the hands
of brawny seamen, straight for the
passing Niagara. Erect in the stern
stood splendid, stalwart figure, the
folds of the big blue burgee and the
pennant draped over the broad shout

the eyes smoldering. Commodore
Perry was transferring the flag.
Halfsurrounded as it was by the
enemy's ships, the boat swept on
through perfect roaring tornado, the
commander, still strangely impasslve,
erect in the stern. Perrys young
brother pleaded with the Commodore
to sit down, but he seemed obllvious.
Finally his oarsmen, fearful for his
safety, fatty refused to row longer I'M
less he sat down, when he complied.
The men then redoubled their efforts,
speeding toward the now waiting Nj
agara. The storm from the British
guns, If possible, grew in violence; the
oars were splintered by musket balls.
AS by miracle, the small crafts ten.
ants escaped unscathed.
A round shot finally came tearing

coat of his rank, the garment he had

deck, and stopped the hole with it. The

in safety. a quarter of an hour after
leaving the Lawrence.

easily be removed by washing with
