THE FOLLY OF WORRY.

Speaking Of worry. that is one
thing that man must learn to avoid
if he will be well and happy. There
is no one thing in the world that has
a tendency to upset and rust a mans
body and faculties more rapidly than
worry. The man who does not
worry is usually a happier and
better man. as far as ability and
capacity for work are concerned,
than the man who allows himself
to be womed.-Justce John Mar

The Houghton high school football
team Will meet the Calumet highs
Saturday in the opening game of the
season for the Houghton team. The
Calumet eleven has already played one

getting into first class conditions for
the game. The game will be played
on the new East iIoughton field in all
probability. The Houghton authorities

bile from your liver and carry out of
the system all the cpnstipated waste
matter and poison In the intestines

If you wish to give your lingerie

ion realm add narrow bands of brown
fur These bands of fur edging floun-
ces and drapery Of the most transpa-
rent and filmy net and chiffon dresses
were one Of the most marked features
OF tho drag race at Auteuil. 1t Is one
of those curious combinations in
which the French revel, but at the
same time 1t Is effective.
Another popular fancy is the scarf
Of maline attached to the gown on one
shoulder and thrown around the figure
In artistic abandon. In fact, maline
will be found surprisingly useful In re-
freshing slightly worn gowns, whether
used as scarf, neck ruche, sash or fln-
fishing the sleeves. There Is now a
waterproof maline on the market
which neither the dampness of the
shore nor an unexpected shower can
wilt.

PRESENT FOR ENGAGED GIRL
An Apron to Slip on When Bride Does
HouseWork Is Always Ac-
ceptable.

A useful and attractive gift for an
engaged girl Is an apron that may
be slipped on when the bride does
housework, and wishes to keep pre-
sentable. Just this type Of apron Is
hard to buy, so is doubly acceptable.
Probably the most useful kind is q
studio apron, such as is used by the
woman artist Get good pattern
with sleeves reaching to the wrists
and cut without too much fullness.
Choose a pink Bingham Of fine quality
or clear black and white stripe,
which always washes well.
For the former trim the neck
which should be cut slightly square
and sleeves with a two-inch insertion
of white embroidery, and fasten at
the back with white pearl buttons.
The black and white apron may be
trimmed with black bias bands, or
with white cotton bands embroidered
In a cross-stitch design in black.
A somewhat dressier apron. though
not so useful for protection, is made
like a waitress apron, with straps
over the shoulders. A pretty effect
is had with ecru or pale pink percale,
the straps embroidered in cross
stitch band that is carried on each
side to the bottom of the apron. The
hem at bottom and sides is finished
with row of ;wo-cha4n stitch-bands.
Use several tones of brown or red
mercerized cotton on the ecru apron.
and white or black on the pink one
