Fashion would seem to have the
blues, and yet to suffer no depression
therefrom, but indeed, to welcome
them with gay enthusiasm. Every
shade of blue is worn and many are
combined in more or less happy union
Distinctly happy was the alliance of
blue wolfe gown of deep China blue
with peacock blue hat wreathed
with blue roses, the costume being
completed by blue kid gloves taking
almost royal tone.
I hate colored kid gloves. do not
think there is any garment upon
which fashion could smile which has
the power to arouse in me such ire
as the sight of brightly colored kid
gloves, and yet have been informed
on reliable authority that the colored
kid glove is upon us, and that we are
to welcome in turn blue gloves, green
gloves, violet gloves and mauve
gloves.
We have no mean choice between
the various tones of biscuit, almond
and wash-leather, and, by the way,
with blue serge dress and a black
tie, wash-leather colored gloves must
be reckoned as superlatively attract
i've; and talking of blue serge, will
return to the popular craze of blue,
and note with much satisfaction that
the blue serge dress looks extremely
well when crowned with one of the
hats of the new bright blue, which
may best be described as China blue
with strong dash of peacock in it,
trimmed at one side with rosette of

To turn to consideration of the cos
tunes shown in our large illustration
The figure on the right reveals dress
of the finest ninon, trimmed with thick
lace and tassels, and the hat is OF
crinoline straw with a panache OF
feathers at one side. 1t would look

tons set in gold, fine lace forming the
vest, and ninon the skirt. For grace
commend me to the well hung ninon
skirt! The hat you will see is
trimmed with monster bow

bon is there much art.

With this is worn as bodice a shirt
of fine lawn with double frill of lace
down the front, and a low-cut waist
coat of violet satin. The desired loose
outline is given by the quaint little
short-waisted sac coat in deep cream
taffetas, the same shade as the fou-
lard, which is trimmed with bands Of
coarse cream silk braid and tassels,
into which a thread of violet is
worked delicately, the violet note be-
ing accentuated by the turned-back
cuffs, which are of violet satin like
the waistcoat. This original dress is
completed by a big mushroom hat in
cream straw, covered with a mass of
bows in violet satin ribbon.
Naturally we are turning our atten.
ton at this time to all those light and
seductive materials which manufac.
turers and dressmakers have devised
for our temptation this year. The
voiles and silk muslins are lovelier
than ever just now, and so are the
ninons and marquisettes, the fine
satin cloths and standings, the fou-
lards and tussores; and perhaps love.
Hest of all in their soft colorings are
the shot taffetas, with which the most
exquisite effects can be obtained.

Historic Island for Sale.

Raasay island, in the Inner Heb
rides, which lies between the main
land of Scotland and the Isle of Skye,
has failed to find purchaser at the
upset price of $225,oo0 placed upon it.
It's name is the Scandinavian for 'the
place of the roe deer" and the shoot
ings, with the mansion house and
grounds at the southern end, consti-
tute the chief value Of the island.
Near the northern end are the ruins
of Brochel castle, the residence OF its
ancient lairds, the MacLeods. In
celtic lore Raasay has place and in
England literature it is mentioned in
Samuel Johnson's Journey to the
Western Islands of Scotland"

Are you troubled with pallor, loss of
spirits, waves of heat passing over the
body, shortness of breath after slight
exertion, peculiar skipping of the
heart beat, poor digestion, cold extremi-
ties or a feeling of weight and fullness2
Do not make the mistake of thinking
that these are diseases in themselves
and be satisfied with temporary relief.
This IS the way the nerves give warn
ing that they are breaking down. It
simply means that the blood has become
impure and cannot carry enough nourish-
ment to the nerves to keep them healthy
and able to do their work.
Rest, alone, will sometimes give the
needed relief. The tonic treatment by
DR.. Williams Pink Pills, however, pre-.
vents the final breakdown of the nerves
and the more serious diseases which
follow, because the pills act directly
upon the impure blood, making it rich,
red and pure.

Dr.. Williams Pink Pills are invaluable
in such diseases as rheumatism, after
effects of the grip and fevers, neuralgia,

paralysis and locomotor ataxia.

GOSSIP.

The truly American sport of trar
shooting gains greatly in popularity
with each successive year, and 1907
promises to be record breaker.
Many golf clubs are adding shooting
grounds, while gun clubs increase and
multiply in every Saction of the coun-
try. The regular season lasts from
early spring until the hunting season,
but the enthusiasts keep it up the
year round. Live bird trap shooting
still has some adherents, but the gen.
erai tendency is towards the ''clay
pigeon" The forerunner of the 'clay
pigeon" was the glass ball, filled with
sand or feathers, to show when
broken; but shooting them was too
easy, and neither in shape nor fight
did they resemble birds. The targets
cost about five dollars per 1000, and
as 30,000,000 are thrown annually, it
would look as if trap shooting had
come to stay. AS to the number of
shells used, only rough estimate can
to 1,000,000,000 shot shells fired each
year in the United States; but the
majority is, of course, for game. A
recent gun club equipment is the
tower trap" the first of which, in
this country, was erected at Pine
hurst, N. c., where the sport is ex-
ceedingly popular. These towns have
long been used in Europe, the idea
being to produce conditions somewhat
similar to those experienced by the
sportsman when shooting rocketing
pheasants. The tower is so feet high,
and in the top are two expert traps,
right and left. The puller is protect
ed by thick plank partition, which
also hides the traps from view. Five
different kinds Of targets may be
thrown-right, left, overhead, un-
known angles and doubles. In these
events, with the exception of the
overhead" birds, the shooter faces
the tower at the usual rise distance.
In the overhead shooting he stands
back to the foot of the tower and
directly under the traps. Tower shoot
ing will bother the best shooters at
first Known angles to right and left
are not difficult, and many have a
knack for breaking overhead targets,
but the unknown angles bewilder
most shooters, and doubles
targets shooting off in opposite di-
rections at the same time-call for
skill and quickness such as few pos
sess They are by no means impos-
sible, and some remarkable records
have been made with them. The sport
is no more expensive than golf or
kindred games. Anyway the game
is worth the candle"
Jesse Harper has accepted the posi-
ton of director of athletics for an
other year at Alma college at Alma.
Mich. This news was received with
great delight by the student body.
Coach Harper has turned out the best
teams this year that Alma has ever
had in it's history. Harper is strong
in all branches of athletics. He grad
uated last year from the University
of Chicago. He was player on both
the football and baseball teams, being

Good for Evil.

One Sunday a teacher was trying
to illustrate to her small scholars the
lesson, Return good for evil" To
make it practical she said:
Suppose, children, one OF your
schoolmates should strike you, and
the next day you should bring him
an apple-that would be one way OF
returning good for evil"
To her dismay one Of the little
girls spoke up quickly:
''Then he would strike you again
to get another applet"
