and scarf is very new. generally be-
coming, chic in effect and so simple
that any woman can make II in an

one with a loose back over which is
arranged a belt. In this case, the
scarf is made of black messaline with
lining of white crepe de chine, but any
two contrasting colors can be used
and any materials that are bretty and
soft and becoming. When It is not
necessary to draw the hood up over
the head, it falls back over the
shoulders to give a cape effect and
the little wrap can be used as a cape
with stole quite as well as a hood
with scarf.
The coat in the illustration is made
from a mixed cheviot with collar and
cuffs of broadcloth, such combina-
tions being both fashionable and de-
sirable. The costume is an admira-

the management that you go down
to the circus lot and listen to Ber-
mis- Giant Serenadum, which will
give continuous concerts during the

ment that was ever made portable
so that it could be carried on wheels.

and rivals in excellence the great
organs of Salt Lake or St. Peters.
Its repertoire includes all the popu-
lar selections, operate gems and
lassi ccrenditions. You will find it
near the main entrance of the Big
Tent The concert is free to all
those who care to enjoy it.
Added to this, you might spend a
profitable hour examining the mech
anism of the huge wagon which con-
vey the circus paraphernalia from
town to town. Ask some Of the
attendants to show you Curtis Fool
proof Wagon-it will demonstrate to
you how modern ingenuity protects
the laboring man against his own
carelessness. After that, you might
take look at the Sells Floto hors-
es. They are considered the best of
their kind.
The price Of admission this year
is still 25 cents. The seating capac-
ity of the circus has been increased
until there are now seats for ten
thousand people and there are three
rings instead Of two as formerly.

ONE DOSE MAKES
INDIGESTION GO,
Heartburn, Gas, Dyspepsia
and all Stomach Distress
Ended with Pape's
Diapepsin.

You don't want slow remedy when
your stomach is bad-or an uncertain
one-or a harmful one-your stomach
is too valuable: you mustn't injure it
with drastic drugs.
Pape's Diapepsin ia noted for its
speed in giving relief; its harmless
ness: its certain unfailing action in
regulating sick. sour, gassy stomachs.
It's millions of cures in indigestion,
dyspepsia, gastritis and other stomach
trouble has made it famous the world
over.
Keep this perfect stomach doctor
in your home-keep it handy-get a
large ffty-cent case from any drug
store and then if anyone should eat
something which didn't agree with
them; if what they eat lays like lead,
ferments and sours and forms gas :;
causes headache, dizziness and nau-
sea; quotations of acid and undi-
gested food-remember as soon as
Papes Diapepsin comes in contact
with the stomach all such distress
vanshes. Its promptness, certainty
and ease in overcoming the worst
stomach disorders is a revelation to
those who try it.

THE HUMMING BIRD.
Known as Flower to Which God Has
Granted Wings.


Our continent has a monopoly of
humming birds, the gems of the feath-
cred creation. OF these there are said
to be as many as 400 species. most OF
which confine themselves to the tropi-
cal regions.
Only eighteen varieties live farther
north than Mexico. 1t is generally
thought that humming birds live upon
honey. This. however. Is a mistake.
They do devour some honey. 1t is true.
but most of their food consists of the
small insects which inhabit certain
flowers.
The little bird is therefore useful as
well as beautiful and has been called
a flower to which God has granted
wings.
Humming birds are so small that
when they are captured for commercial
purposes 1t is impossible to use even
the smallest shot for fear of injuring
their skins. They are therefore stunned
with n drop of water from a blowgun
or syringe and fall into a net. when
they are quickly poisoned
HumminG birds vary in size from
those half as large as a sparrow TO
those about the size of bee. Their
flight is so swift that they can be well
seen only when poised on a flower
