CHANGE IN MEMS COSTUMES
When Use Of Powder and Of snus
Boxes Died Out.

The French revolution had its
effect upon the fashions of 1900, as
we'll as upon matters of more
weighty import, the tendency being
greatly to simplify costume. Young
men in England adopted the short
coat, light waistcoat and pantaloons
inaugurated in Paris by certain set
who affected to despise the old court
fashions.
The use of powder, made more ex-
pensive by taxation, quite died out
and short hair became universal.
Trousers and Wellington boots, at
first worn only by the military, were
adopted by civilians about 1914, and
the dandy of the early Victorian era
wore his tightly strapped down. He
also prided himself on his starched
collar, which had gone out of favor
under George w., who preferred a
black silk kerchief or stock.
The snuff box vanished and the
characteristic ornament of the age
was the bunch of seals hanging from
the watch chain. Various modifica-
tions took place from time to time
during Queen Victoria's long reign,
but the form of mems dress prac-
tically remained unaltered.
The knickerbockers and tweed
suit of the country gentleman are of
comparatively modern date, as well
as the wideawake and cloth cap.

DREAMS AND n,o4rMAaxs:-

Many of our commonest dreams
are occasioned by bodily conditions
or surroundings. Loosened sheets ct

ing at dinner or . tendency to lie
on ones back in bed readily con-
jures up whole legions of spooks.
Certain evidence on this point
was collected in DR.. G.. Stanley

timony. From this it would appear

French translator thought he meant

DISEASE OF MIND OR BODY
Common causss Of nsemnIs-lndIess
tion and Hunger.

DIR. William Stevens says that in
somnia is not a disease itself, but
the effect of an unhealthy condition
Of body or mind. When the cause
is removed the insomnia may be
expected to disappear.
Every physician has had stubborn
cases of it which would not yield to
any treatment and for which a
change of air or Of scene became
necessary. But such cases as these
should not occur, and do occur only
when the sufferer has neglected pre-
cautions that should have been taken
when the trouble first made itself
manifest.
Insomnia results from causes
which can be removed if attended to
in season. The most common cause
is found in the digestive organs.
Either unsuitable food, causing in
somnia as feature of indigestion,
or insufficient food, causing the pa
tient to be kept awake by hunger.
There are few things which can
be universally recommended as diet
for sleeplessness, since what will
agree with one man will disagree
with another. But two things that
may almost always be recommended
are lettuce and celery.

EMEaALos.

"Fine old Spanish emeralds" Is .
phrase which means something
quite different from what it seems
to imply. There never was an emer-
aid mined in Spain, but after the
conquest of Peru the conquerors
brought home great quantities Of
loot, of which eneralds formed an
important part. In this way the
finest emeralds came into possession
of the old Spanish families, and as
very few had been seen in Europe
previous to that time all the best
stones soon became classed as fine
old Spanish emeralds. To-day the
expression still applies to the best
emeralds of any source.

that close to the grave of the bishop,
who died recently, lilies have bios

is about to blossom in the same
vicinity. Years ago Bishop satter-

and Mel pitched forward to the floor
with low, choking moan.

The Silver Bow Evening Times of
August 1 made the following refer
ence to the affair:
"Unable to face the punishment
that awaited him for embezzling two
thousand dollars of his employers
funds, Melrose R. Allen, the book
keeper of the Silver Bow Bank, shot
and instantly killed himself last
night while working in the Office Of
the bank. When found this morn
ing Allen was lying on the floor be-
hind his desk with bullet wound
behind the right ear. Beside him
lay his revolver, with one chamber
empty. The body was fast becoming
rigid and life had evidently been ex-
tinct for some hours. An examine
ton of the dead mans books reveals
a shortage of about two thousand
dollars and it was undoubtedly the
unavoidable discovery Of his crime
that led the young man to his rash
act. He was "a years Of age and
unmarried.
eMr. Dick Barker, of the firm Of
Smith & Barker, by whom Allen
was employed, speaks in the highest
terms of the dead man. His honesty
has been hitherto unquestioned and
it is. due to this fact that he has had
entire control over the funds in the
banks vaults. Mr.. Barker tele-
graphed particulars of the sons
sad death to the aged father at War
renville, Mass, asking for instruc-
tons as to the disposition Of the re-
mains. The father, evidently over
come by the disgrace to his family,
in reply merely directed Mr.. Barker
to bury the body in the potter's field
at Silver Bow. Mr.. Barker, however,
who is well known for his many acts
Of public charity, will, at his own
expense, have the remains decently
inferred. The funeral will probably
be held tomorrow"
