Wired Feathers for Hats.

As the hats are all trimmed very
high wired feathers arranged to sew
on hats may be purchased. and flow
ers also in pompon effects. One of
these feather tower effects costs $3.50;
others are near the one dollar margin;
the price varies according to the quail
ity and kind OF feathers. Aigrettes are
are still in evidence, though more in
white than black. In buying white
ostrich feathers of the less expensive
grade it is well to run ones hand
gently down the length of the quill
pressing back the feather to see that
1t has been properly dyed. as these
are apt to show the blown of the nat
ural feather in the outdoor light and
the breeze.

For the Summer Resort.

The very thin negligees are so de
lightful that one sometimes forgets
they may not be practical, for many
summer resorts are cool at night and
in the early hours of the day, and for
these places 1t is better to take some
albastross negligee. These may be had
with a deep collar of dotted Swiss,
made with valeciennes insertion and
edging and in pastel colors. The
sleeves are finished with deep cuff OF
dotted Swiss and lace

PLAIN LINES MOST POPULAR
This Seasons Linen Suits Are Made
With None or Very Little
Trimming.

While the coarser linens are used,
those made of the finer twisted thread
are liked quite as well. Very little
trimming is needed. The lace collar
and cuffs or the lingerie frill at neck
and wrists suffice, though. of course,
buttons and buttonholes, lace and EN-.
broidery may figure as trimmings.
Oddly of cut is, however, the only
thing necessary for those who wish
something different. 1t is surely diff
ferent enough to have the back of the
coat and skirt cut across on the bias
or otherwise manipulated. Yet. such
naanipulations offer no difficulties to
the laundress. These suits may be
made coat and skirt fashion or in the
coat and dress effect. Both styles
have their good points. many consid
ering the former the most economical,
since fresh blouse may be donned
as often as the wearer pleases. And
sleeves and necks do have a way OF
becoming soiled before it is necessary
to send the entire dress to the laun.
dry.
Many dresses are being made, too,
in linen and kindred weaves. The Sc
verify Of these all-in-one gowns is be-
ginning to disappear. While the puffs
seen on taffetas are not available there
are pipings. inlayings and bands in
contrasting fabrics.
Fancy linens and linens with open
work borders are effectively utilized,
though one who is at all clever at de-
signing will be able to achieve very
fine suits with the plain sorts. It's
the design. cut and finish that counts,
also the accessories. One girl, for ex-
ample. is to look smart in her white
linens this summer; the only color
she is to add is sapphire or coral, as
the spirit may move her. Whether she
chooses the blue or the odd pink
shade she will wear it in the shape of
silk stockings. ribbon watch fob and
necktie, and no other color will ap-
pear except she chooses to carry a
parasol in the color she is wearing.

| The custom, almost universally fol-
lowed. of giving the morning meal be-
fore water, is not very Objectionable,
either theoretically or practically. At
this time there is no depletion of fluid,
consequently the horse is not very
thirsty and does not drink rapidly or
excessively and apparently very little
evil results from this method. How
ever, the writer much prefers that the
horse should have an opportunity to
drink what is good for him before the
morning meal.
Personally, l much prefer keeping
horses, both summer and winter, in
an open shed, with a large water tank
in the yard, to tying them by the
head in barn.
Not only in giving water to horses
must care be exercised but in every
other way.
Many good driving horse has his
years of usefulness cut short by being
left in the hands of some person who
does not know how to take care of a
horse or does not care what happens
to the horse that happens to come in
to his hands.
One of the most common ways of
injuring driving horse is by driving
him hard in cool weather, and when
the horse has been brought into a
sweat. leaving him uncovered and ex-
posed to cold winds or to drafts in
a stable.
1t is seldom necessary to drive a
horse so hard on cool day. that he
will be in a sweat. In warm weather
it is different, as the horse, then
sweats with little exertion.
When the horse has been driven un-
til he is covered with foam and sweat,
he should be taken into a stable, rub
bed down with whisps of hay or piece
of rough cloth, and then blanketed.
The neglect of such precautions has
resulted in many horse catching a
cold that has proved serious.
Driving is science itself, and there
are many mature people who have not
learned how to drive horse. They
have no idea as to the. amount of work
he is able to perform without lessen
ing his vitality.
1t must be remembered that horse
as well.as man, is limited as to what
he can do.

POLI'S

In the olden days none but the wealthy could afford to have their testers and entertainers to make them laugh and keep them in good humor, but today thanks to theatrical en- terprfse such as the Poh chain of vaudeville theatres, the very best of wits and cleverest actors in Europe and America, is brought to the city and placed at the disposal of public and prices go wonderfully low that no one can afford to stay away.
 This weeks offering is an especial Iy good one in honor of its being holiday week. Heading the bill is Miss May Fully, one of the bright particular stars in the Armament of comediennes- Miss Fully appeared after the last baseball season with ''Christy' AFathewson and Chief" Myers, the latter the famous hitter of the New York Giants, in a baseball immense hit. Of course Mathewson and Myers were simply there to show themSelves and it was Miss Tuly who carried along the sketch. Now she is appearing in another great hit, ''The Battle Cry of Freedom written by Bozeman Bolger, baseball editor as one of the best of the newspaper humorists. '"The Battle Cry of Free dom" is a satire on Reno divorces and is full of rnerriment from start to finish. With such a com medienne as Miss Fully in the leading role it is bound to prove an immense attrac- ton during the current week.
 Howard & Howard, another of the feature offerings for the week, have gained fame for themselves as a pair of the very cleverest comedians on the vaudeville stage. One of the brothers appears as a Hebrew mes s'straight.' The two of them rattle off the fun so fast that the laughter never auses- Howard and Howard are in demand wherever vaudeville Is played. Their latest conception, "The Porter and the Salesman" is said to be the very best and funniest in whiEn they have appeared.
 These two acts afford d taste of the calibre of this weeks bill at Bridge ports one and only popular vaude- vile playhouse. Some of the other big hits of the bill will be: The Five Satsudas, the great Japanese tumb- ling and wrestling act, featuring the work of K. Mikitchi, the only Jap comedian on the American stage; Will Rogers, the Oklahoma cowboy, cham Barry & Wolford, a clever pair who play piano, sing and furnish some bright entertainm ent; Speigel & Dunn, two blackface com edians with a store of good comedy; Martini Brothers, a sensational European scrobatic offering; Polfs Electro graph, with the latest and best of motion picture plavlet9, and Polls concert orchestra, with musical selec- tions of the day.
 Owing to the special nature of the exceptionally large and the denand for seats throughout the week will be heavy Order early and don't allow yourself to get left.

MEDICINE USED IN RURAL DISTRICTS.

Over 35 per cent. of the population of the United States are said to live in rural districts remote from physi- clans or drug stores and they are obliged to depend upon proprietary medicines to a very great extent.
 To the women in these homes. such standard rem edieS as Lydia E. Pink hams Vegetable Compound come as boon and a blessing.
