the mainland with the island. The
sand was heavy and we took off our

from the spit in the direction of the

used for gathering seaweeds or for
carrying great catches of fish: over

Anecdote of Francois Conpee

Francois Coppee, whose statue has
just been unveiled near the Invalides,
close to the street where he died, was
a graceful poet and the kindest of
men. An anecdote just recalled shows
his benevolence. He was the prey of
interviewers, and was too good-heart-
ed ever to turn one away. Whenever
an evidently young reporter called
who seemed to be beginner Coppee,
an old journalist himself, would shake
him warmly by the hand and say:
Tell me, my young friend. are you on
salary or on space?" If he answered
the former, the poet would talk to him
for half a minute, and then dismiss
him cheerily with "And now | am
busy" and a handshake. If, however,
the young reporter replied "On space"
Coppee would say at once, "Sit down
there showing him his own writing
table, and write" and he would die
tate him a column interview.

ALCOHOL AID TO PNEUMONIA
Well Known Clinical Fact That Users
Of Liquor Ssre Badly When At -
tackled by Disease.

It IL a wellknown clinical fact that
those addicted to the use Of alcohol
fare very badly when attacked BY
pneumonia. Indeed, the mortality
among drinkers Is very high In every
disease; but Is especially marked In
pneumonia. DR.. Julius Pohlmaa was
struck by this fact, and In order ia
test II performed a number Of expert
ments he has recorded In the Medical
News.
Pneumonia is considered by the besi
authorities as an infectious disease
and, from it's organisms. there Is SUD
posed to spread through the system
toxine, called pneumo-toxine, against
which weak bodies struggle with great
difficulty. or In vain. says Health. The
disease is more than a mere conges
ton Of the lungs. Dr.. Pohlman, In his
experiments, took some strong and
lusty dogs. and injected into the
trachea, just below the larynx Of each
one, some pure alcohol, and noted
the effect.
His work seems TO have been done
rather unscientifically, but his conciu,
sions agree with clinical experience,
although of much less value. How.
ever, his work will give the anti-vivf-
sectionists something to talk about.
His theory is that, If to congestion
of the lungs brought on by alcohol q
pneumonia be added, the individual
stands little chance of recovering.
While the study OF the blood serum
in pneumonia has not advanced quite
as far and to such practical results as
in diphtheria, still 1t is pretty we'll

A BRIDAL LUNCHEON
NEW IDEAS IN TABLE DECORA-
TON AND PLACE CARDS.
How the Hostess May Easily Evolve
Something Attractive for Lunch
cons, Teas and Dinners Con-
nected With MARRIAGE.

Every hostess takes pride in invest
ing novel and pretty decorations for
her luncheons, teas and dinners, and
she takes special pride when the guest
or honor is young bride or bride-to-
De. 1t is never a difficult matter to
evolve something attractive for a fes-
hvity connected with marriage. for
there are so many charming designs
that can be used-cupids, hearts, we'd
ding bells, wedding rings and the
like.
AT recent luncheon given for an
engaged girl the color scheme was
pink and white, pink being the ia
vorite color of the bride-elect. The
Iostess was the latter's closest friend
and all the guests were intimates of
the two. which made the luncheon q
very jolly affair.
The chandelier, above the table, was
festooned with pink and white tulle,
and suspended from 1T was large

they crossed the lines of surf, which

RAFFIA TRIMMING THE VOGUE
Gives Extremely Effective Touch to
Many of the Seasons Styles
In Millinery.

Many of the new hats In the looser
weaves of straw are being trimmed
very effectively In colored raffia and
velvet flowers, the rafia being COW
cred with net Of the same shade and
arranged like a scarf. Raffia comes In
nearly % shades, and where an un-
usual color must be matched. the
white or natural colored can often be
dyed to the exact tint. One girl tried
for days to stain exactly rather
bright blue rafia, and after failing
with all sorts of paints and dyes sue
ceeded by dipping the Manufactured
grass into ordinary washing blue.
With the help of raffia and net very
modish hats, indeed, can be trimmed
entirely at home, for even the velvet
flowers can be made with practise by
the amateur. Often the raffia and
net will match the straw of the hat,
with the flowers in another shade or
in black or white. The variations are
endless. and all are pretty.
