What DispIeassd Him.

Two hunters were making their way
across lush meadow after a rain.
The ground was moist and soggy, but
their feet by quick stepping could be
prevented from sinking more than an
kle deep.
Suddenly the one in advance disap-
peared up to his neck in a narrow
stream that. owing to the luxuriant
growth on the bank. he had observed
only as he stepped into it. With difi-
Guilty he pulled himself out and began
wringing the water from his garments
'well, darn a country" he remarked
with feeling. "where they set their
creeks up edgewise and hide 'em In the
grass."-Phlladelph Ledger.

fine linens, batistes, mulls. plain OF

these are to be had this summer in the
sheerest and finest OF qualities and

handkerchief linen is the most prac

point Of wear, and nothing is loveliel

70 PLACE FOR A STRAW HAT

There was good deal Of the char

Tom Norris, the famous golfer, who
has just died. He was pawky, canny
and Of q religious bent. OF him many
stories are told. When asked for his
opinion regarding the playing Of golf
on Sunday, Tom wisely remarked that
If the player did n need rest, the
linksSdid."
Beginners had always large share
Of Toms sympathy, and. he was ever
ready to give them sound advice. Tom
was astonished one day to find a raw
Gallant who had armed himself with
a club and ball out on the links with
a straw hat. "You'll never get the

70 WEAR UNDER SHEATH SKIRT.
SILK knickerbockers Appropriate with
the New Costume

The shops have already brought out
all kinds of silk knickerbockers for
the new sheath skirt. Some are lined
with albatross, some are of taffeta,
unlined; others are Of old brocades
lined with china silk.
They are perfectly fitted at hips
and waist line and are held around the
knee with an elastic band. They
haven't much material in them, or
they would make a bad line under the
tight skirt
While the majority never use them
for this purpose. they promise to be
quite popular for all manner of out
door wear under short cloth skirts.
For camp and country, for ocean
and mountain, those OF china silk worn
under a short tweed skirt are I'M
