Women who recognize the advantage Of early choice will be
surprised by our showing Of all that is new and pretty. in style. cost

into closely--for workmanship means quality, and it is quality we
sell at small profit prices.

the fancy tailored suits, the coats have, in many cases. the long, low

the house of lords and the workhouse
have suffered from 1t. There was q
former Duke of Norfolk who fell into

hard at 1t on one occasion when a bill
concerning the parish Of Great Snor-

The roar of laughter with which the
bills title was greeted awakened the

have the poor law commission minorf'

Lisa Vasseleyna was the daughter OF
gentleman whose estate adjoined my
fathers In Russia. We had been play
mates as children. but had not seen
her since my departure for the univer-
sity. 1t was natural that the meeting
should bring me great pleasure. We
walked down to the foot Of the rocks.
thence to the beach and strolled north
ward on the sand. Lisa told me many
things of home-that my brother had
gone into the army; that my sister was
engaged to be married; thatcher father
had received an appointment under the
government. These bits Of news she
gave me as we walked side by side.

was somewhat surprised that this
independence of character which had
led her to choose field Of labor should
be found side by side with such
Difference to custom. However. the
change Of residence was essential and
resulted In avoiding criticism, for We
were constantly together. Usually In
the morning we would sit on the beach
looking at the bathers. In the after
noon we would go to the rocks and
watch the water pour in and out of the
caverns at their base. Occasionally
we would take boat with a single
sail, which could manage quite well.

Here ends the story as told by Alexis
Olizoff. The residents of the place
where he met Lisa tells of how one
evening In face Of an approaching
storm two young people, Russian by
birth, took boat and pulled seaward.
Night fell, and they were still riding
the waves, as was seen from the shore
by an occasional fash of lightning. AT
midnight the storm burst, and they had
not returned. The next morning their
boat was found bottom upward on the
beach.
Neither Alexis nor Lisa were ever
seen again ut the resort nor IN Amer
lea. A month later man, accom-
panied by his wife, walked into one
Of the villages of North Dakota and
inquired where they might buy land
A farm IN the vicinity being for sale,
they purchased it and settled under

either husband or wife speak of their
youth. their nationality or whence they
came to North Dakota All this they
successfully buried In oblivion.
Recently the wife died, and the hus-
band followed her within few
months. There seemed to be some

cows HORN NURSING BOTTLE
Description Of old-TIme Baby Raising
That VIII Make Modern
Mother Shuddor.

The original nursing bottle was a
COWS horn. to the small end of which
we're sewn two pieces of leather, as
nnger OF glove. and the infant drew
Its nourishment between the stitches.
According to DR.. d. Forsyth, fifteenth
century mothers used to nurse their
babies for close upon three years, q
duration still customary among the
Japanese and Greenlanders. In tho
time Of the Stuarts 1t had declined to
between eighteen months and two
years. In the time of the Georges 1t
fell to one year, and now he reckoned
the average as eight months.
During the Hanoverian period the
practice Of feeding babies artificially
became somewhat common. Cows milk
was not then considered just the food
for a baby deprived of it's mothers
milk, and the substance called pap"
was introduced through the cows
horn. Pap" was a mixture OF crust,
water and sugar. A baby that thrived
on II was usually one OF rare constitu.
ton.
The nursing bottle with long rub
Der stem succeeded the cows horn,
and by degrees the comparatively san.
itary. feeding bottle OF today was in
troduced.

CARICATURES ON THE STAGE
Appeal to Playwrlshts to Make Their
Characters q Little More
Truo to Nature.

At the anniversary festival OF the
Royal General Theatrical Fund ]. L.
Grifiths, United States consul gen.
eral, spoke a word of appeal for some
improvements In the drama. He
would like, he said. to see play In
which there was a really spiritual
clergyman, an honest barrister, q
straightforward diplomatist and an
American gentleman. Mr.. Grifiths'
views have been generally indorsed
by the press.
1t is acknowledged that diplomatists
are presented on the stage too con-
sistently as creatures OF preternatural
cunning, never as men with human
limitations. The popular dramatic
type OF clergyman, the muscular, Ia
more firing still; every citrate Is not
the physical equal OF a prizeRghter.
An American gentleman would be
very welcome on the English stage.
The type almost invariably presented
ls like nothing on earth. He is neither
gentleman nor an American. II 10
true he no longer calculates by
gosh!" or II calculate" but he con-
tinues to be a carlcature, and a bad
caricatrre at that.
