Repentance.

Several weeks ago the Lunatics
went to the town Of Cairo and bea,
the River Rats three games. They
had previously trounced Danvllle two
out of three. This led ns to remark,
Somebody head us of. durn our fool
souls" On the occasion It was said
in jest. because we were going to-
ward the top. Now We repeat this
quotation, but II comes from the bot
tom OF our heart and We hope some
body will head us. But we want to be
headed OF from the bottom Of the
ladder this time. We have no desire
to beat Nation out of her place. =

MINGLING OF TONES.

There has been so much question
match the gown. 1t has been asserted
that the morning street suits should be
complete in color from head to heels.
but more latitude was allowed In the
afternoon.
This may be dictate of fashion, but
in practice one sees the costumes
matching in hat and gown almost en-
tirely.
When sombre colors are used there
is often wide dash of another color in
the hat. which may or may not match
the collar of the coat, but If this collar
is in another color from the coat, the
trimming ON the hat must match it.
In mcgs cases complimentary colors
sre used, but fastidious women prefer
mingling different tones of one color.
1t might help those who are unde-
cided about such combinations to re-
member that most shades of red go to-
gether, that black can be relieved by
crimson, yellow, pale blue and emerald
green, If these colors are used In very
small quantities.
Violet can be combined with any
other shade of purple or lavender, and
pink can be touched off with certain
toLes of red, always with black. and
sometimes with white, but the latter is
not very effective.
Black and white is not as favored a
combination as it was. except in GER
tain ways, such as white plume on
black hat and bit of fine lace at the
neck and wrist of black gown.
Green should rarely be touched with
nything except with shades of the
same color, although now and then one
sees an effective combination made
with touch of white on green. and
black is good for an informal gown.
Gold goes well with brown. but Sill
yer should be avoided, yet silver should
be used on blue and light green in pref
erence to gold.

about the average woman's attitude
toward cigar store? 1t used to be
the custom, when man went into a
cigar store TO buy a smoke. for the
woman who was with him to wait out
side. This frequently led to her being
spoken to by any chance blackguard.
But this conventional modesty or mark
of disapprovaI has been abandoned,
and few women ever dream of waiting
outside such shop in these times.

pend on II that she il from the Prov

her voice began TO show signs of IA

AID TO RELAXATION.

When you are resting, even If it's
only matter of a few minutes, dark
en- yorr room as completely a possi-
bic, says an exchange. Lying down
throws your head in such a position
that the lids of your eyes have abso-
lutely 40 chance to keep Off rays of
light; and there is a definite eye strain
in consequence.
No bed should be placed in such a
way that you are forced to face the
morning light. and especially not so
that the light will awaken you; de-
pend upon an alarm clock for that, If
there's nobody willing to serve in that
capacity. There must be no strain
upon any part of you if your rest is
to be perfect, and the matter Of dark
ness or light has a great deal TO do
with the case.

While SO many arbitrary things are
endured for fashions sake one more
will make little difference with the suf-
ferer, and no doubt corset collars will
become great fad. There are many
of the finest chiffon, so gauzy as to be
almost imperceptible. and are boned to
follow exactly the big arteries and
muscles of the neck. The collar, which
fits closely, goes up under the chin and
up behind the ears, and is attached to
the skin by gum or paste. To women
who are not as young as they would
like to be they are regarded as great
boon, for at distance they give the
effect of absolute youth. OF course, it
isn't exactly comfortable, but what is
comfort in these days of beauty wor-
ship when only the youthful have felt
at ease and have been modish at the
same time?-New York Press.
