Bridge Coats.

Bridge coats and blouses of every
description are again to the fore, and
nothing can equal the smartness of
the lace coats. usually three-quarter
lengths. sometimes with long. hanging
points in front, and sometimes closed
up across the bust; and for these gar
ments crochet is first in favor. Eidle-
weiss lace, with design in the Greek
key pattern, is used for the three.
quarter length coats with deep gilt
fronts. turning back In the form Of

JIMMY BRODERICK'S Uncle Dick
was not only a great inventor,
but one of the kindest men that

but one of the kindest men that
ever lived.
Although he earned his living by in
venting useful things like automatic
plows that would plow whole field in
the night time while the farmer lay in
bed asleep and automatic fish poles
that would bait their own hooks and
throw out their own lines and pull in
their own fish and take them off and
bait the hooks over again, still Uncle
Dick was ready at minutes notice to
sonnet 'ng to give boy pleasure And
you gree that nephew who has
an uncle like that has treasure
Jimmy Broderick knew this and he
took great care of Uncle Dick, carrying
an umbrella for him when it rained and
watching to see that he ate his meals
regularly for like all great inventors,
Uncle Dick could not take care of him

What would you like for the Fourth
of July, Jimmy?" asked Uncle Dick
about q week before that important
day.
81 would like most of all to have a
great big sky rocket said Jimmy.
You shall have one," said his uncle
and Immediately went into his inven.
tory shop, which is the funny name
that he gave to the little room where
he invented things.
The telephone bell rang a good deal
that day. On the very next morning a
big truck arrived from the city with
two big casks on it. They were painted
red and marked Danger! Powder!" in
big letters. There were also huge rolls
of thick pasteboard, each sheet big
enough to make the whole side of a
house, and there were so many of
them that the horses could hardly pull
them
Uncle Dick rubbed his hands and
chuckled like anything when he saw
the material.
you shall certainly have a sky
rocket" said he to Jimmy. And the
best of it is that the greater part of
the country for hundreds of miles
around will have one, too"
Jimmy was very curious and still
more puzzled, but he knew that Uncle
Dick did not like to explain his inven,
tions beforehand, so he asked no ques,
tions, but merely kept his eyes open
and did not go out of sight of the in
ventor..' shop all morning.
Before noon great gang of men ar
rived, and under Uncle Dicks orders
they began to carry all the material to
the pasture. where they deposited it
around huge old dead pine tree that
stood smooth and straight reaching
into the air fully 80 feet without a
branch to break it except on the very
top, and that was soon gone, too, for
Uncle Dick sent men up there and
they Topped it off so that then the
tree stood sleek and smooth like a
mast.
Then the sheets Of pasteboard were
laid on the ground and rolled into a
great cylinder 30 feet long and at least
ten feet in diameter.
AS soon as a sheet was rolled into
shape the men tied it tightly with
yards on yards of rope and then an.
other sheet was rolled around the first
and more rope tied around that and
SO on until all the pasteboard had been
used up, and that was such lot that
1t took the men all day with the hardest
kind of work.
The next day they opened the casks

in, hour after hour. until the last grain

mense skyrocket and trembling all
over at the thought of the explosion
when she went off, And all over the
land people who could not go to the
farm were watching the heavens and
paying very little attention to the 9TH
er fireworks Of the United States, be-
cause the papers had told all about the
rocket and had explained that it could
be seen hundreds of miles when it
went up.
When the time came, Uncle Dick
gave Jimmy big piece of lighted punk
and then he stood in front of the tree
and said:
Ladies and Gentlemen: You will
notice that this tree is inclined toward
that when the rocket is lit it will pull
the tree clear out of the ground and
go north for at least 1000 miles, which
will bring it over uninhabited country,
where it will fall without hurting any
body, unless bear or a moose should
get in the way. Now, Jimmy, touch
her Off"
Jimmy touched the end of the fuse
and then everybody ran away to safe
distance. The fire climbed swiftly, and
suddenly with bang that shook the
hills and broke the windows even in
towns 100 miles away, the giant rocket
went off.
Out came the tree, roots and all, and
sailed grandly into the sky with hiss
ing trail of fire behind it. The amazed
spectators watched it for more than
half an hour, getting smaller and
smaller, till it disappeared in the
northern sky.
For days after that the paper printed
reports from distant places from peo-
pie who had seen a wonderful fiery
thing in the night. By means Of these
reports, 1t was possible for Uncle Dick
to pursue the course of his wonderful
rocket until he found that it had gone
far over Canada; but he could not
learn where 1t had fallen and he did
not learn until recently.
But about week ago hunter who
had been in the very far north Of Can
ada, near Hudson bay, shooting musk
oxen, visited Uncle Dick. He told q lot
of interesting hunting adventures, and
finally said:
"The queerest thing that I saw was
far up in the barren lands where there
are no trees. One day saw something
odd some distance away, and went
there on my snow shoes.
what do you suppose I found? A
mighty tree! That was queer enough
up there. But queerer still was the fact
that this tree did not stand in the
ground as other trees do, but stood
roots up with its crown buried deeply
in the soil. 1t was the most marvellous

In presenting the truly American

band early in November, the manage
ment of the lyceum course feel conf
dent that every lover of music and
true American will be interested in
the progress of the real American
conductor and his twenty Ameri-
can Indian artists. The ability of the
Indian to take up the educational arts
is sometimes questioned. That ques
tion cannot be better answered than
by mere reference to Wheelock and
his famous and celebrated concert
band of twenty-siX Indian musicians.
This organization without question
ranks with all the leading concert
bands in this country.
II is not school band nor in any
way connected with the United States
government, but the members of the
organization are picked from the best
Indian artists in America, nearly all
graduates from some institution of
learning. Every man speaks and
writes English, unlike other bands
that have foreigners who can enither
speak nor write English. In every
sense real American band.
