A SWINGING TARGET.

Every Boy Scout and all other boys
who love outdoor pastimes will be
Interested in this new idea for a
moving target. 1t is comparatively
easy with little practice to become
expert in hitting the bullseye of a
stationary target, but with moving
target it is quite a different PROPOSE
ton, for it requires considerable
more experience in judging distance,
which of course makes this form OF
tarket shooting more interesting than
that with stationary target.
Fig. l shows a swinging target
that is very easy to make. In the IL
lustration it is shown suspended from
a tree branch, which will be the most
convenient way of putting it up in
the woods; but if you use it in the
back yard and there is no tree there,
it may be supported from the end OF
the crosspiece nailed to the top of a
clothespost. or from a bracket fasten-
ed to wall.

target and suggests how it may be

fastened to stakes driven into the
ground, over nails in the lower por-
ton of the target.
Fig. 8 shows details Of the target.
The platform should be made about
"a inches square, and the boards
should be held together by mailing
battens across the back as shown in
Fig. 2. After the platform has been
made, take barrel hoop and fasten
it to the center with staples, as
shown. This will give you frame

for the filing, for which excelsior or
straw should be procured. Pack the
filling as solid as possible. The best
results are obtained by dampening
the material before packing it.
The Target Sheets.
For the target sheets, use heavy
wrapping paper. Two sheets may be
pasted together if you cannot procure
large enough single sheets. Fig. 4
shows how to mark out the rings by
means of a homemade compass. This
compass is easily made out of short
stick. Measure the diameter of the
barrel hoop (this is usually between
II to is inches), then take one
ninth of this measurement and lay off
the centers for five holes this dis
lance apart. Lay off the center for
a sixth hole one-half of this distance
from one of the end holes. This last
hole is for a pencil axis for the COM
pass to swing upon, while another
pencil is slipped through the other
holes, one at a time, to describe the
circles. With the measurements laid
out in this way, the stick may be kept
indefinitely for marking out additional
sheets. one of which you will require
as soon as a sheet becomes too badly
perforated to be of any further use.
After describing the circles, fill in
every other ring with paint, or wash
ing bluing.
The tarket sheet should be pasted
to the side of the hoop. To make it
hold more readily to the wood, a row
of small-headed tacks may be driven
into the side of the hoop, and the tar
get sheet pierced onto them.
If you wish larger target than Is
possible with an 1s-inch barrel hoop.
you may unfasten two hoops and join
them together into one hoop Of the
desired size.

NEW COATS FOR MIDSUMMER
Are Made Much on Same Styles as
Earlier Spring Coats Were
Fashioned After.

Wraps and coats for midsummer
are made much on the same styles
the earlier spring coats have been
fashioned after. Many of them are
trimmed with fancy collars and cuffs
of printed silk and some are trimmed
with velvet ribbon and few have
lace collars and cuffs. The most pop
ular colors seem to be black, navy,
taupe, gold, SAKE blue and sand. Bro
caded charmeuses, crepe de chine and
other novelty brocades are all being
made up into wraps suitable for warm
weather use.
A few fancy linen coats in white,
rose, tan and SAKE blue, in the new
three-quarter length in cutaway ef-
fects will be worn this summer, and
these are sometimes trimmed with
cluny or ratine lace, or have embroid-
cred collars and cuffs in Cubist or
Balkin designs and colorings. How
ever, the silks seem more popular,
probably because they are newer and
prettier.

QUEER OCCUPATION FOR POET
Walt Whitman, Not Being Able to
Make Both Ends Meet With He
Poetry, Went into Commerce.

WALT Whitman wasn't as successful
as the English poet, Alfred Noyes. in
making both ends meet with his
poetry" said a Philadelphia editor.
Waits muse had nothing like the
shallow, commonplace, commercial
quality OF the young Englishman's.
II used to visit Walt Whitman In
his old age In his little two-story
wooden house In Mickle street, Cam
den. One day-it's a pleasant souvenir
this, of old-time Philadelphia-one day
in December said to him:
Well, Walt, how are things going
this winter? ANY Christmas subscrip-
tons needed?
No. said the old poet No, indeed.
I'm working now. I'm working for
George W. Childs. He pays ne $50 a
month
"'Good!' said 1. And what's your
Job with Childs?'
Riding In the horse cars, said
Walt I ride about the city, talk to
the drivers and conductors. I find out
which of them need winter overcoats,
and, guessing their size, / notify
Childs, who fits them out forthwith.
It's easy, pleasant work, and it saves
Childs lot of trouble over measure
ments and so forth"

THE BEST TREATMENT FOR
ITCHING ScALPS, DANDRUFF
AND FALLING HAIR

To allay itching and Irritation Of the
scalp, prevent dry, thin and falling
hair, remove crusts, scales and dan
druf, and promote the growth and
beauty Of the hair, the following spe-
cial treatment is most effective, agree
able and economical On retiring,
comb the hair out straight all around,
then begin at the side and make a
parting, gently rubbing Cuticura ONT
ment into the parting with bit Of
soft flannel held over the end Of the
finger. Anoint additional partings
about half an inch apart until the
whole scalp has been treated, the pur.
pose being to get the Cuticura Oint
ment on the scalp skin rather than on
the hair. 1t is well to place a light
covering over the hair to protect the
pillow from possible stain. The next
morning, shampoo with Cuticura Soap
and hot water. Shampoos alone may
be used as often as agreeable. but
once or twice a month is generally
sufficient for this special treatment
for women's hair.
