new SHADE OF BLUE
POPULAR SPRING COLOR Is RE-
MARkABLY PRETTY.
Probably seen at lie Best In the Tai
fetas-IIIustratIon Shows One
Of the Most Effective OF
the Recent Gowns.

The newest and smartest shade OF
blue Is designated "bleu soldat" or SOL
der blue, and really is remarkably
pleasing. It rather borders on vio-
let tone, but is not so dark and prob
ably resembles the blue Of gentians
as nearly as any other known shade.
This is modish spring color and Is
particularly good in taffetas, OF which
the illustrated dress Is fashioned.
It will be necessary to have white
China silk waist lining, sleeveless, OF
course, and just serving as a founda-
ton to which the skirt and little
shirred neck yoke may be attached.
The shirred yoke is merely added
above the round decolletage Of the
lining and shows inside the wide V OF
over-blouse.
The top of the skirt is evenly gath
cred all round, and an added section
above is shirred and corded In three
or four more rows. The lower part or
the skirt is trimmed with two bands
of self material, the first trif1e mar
rover than the second, and both
slightly frilled under finishing cord.
The lower edge of these bands is cut
in little square tabs to correspond
with the lower edge of the blouse.
In front the short unconfined edge
of the blouse runs up at the center
The sides and back are held In little,
about four inches above the waist un-
der a cording. The long sleeves show
three encircling bands of self, material
all slashed to form square tabs.

ter of the V neck bit of dull silver

BLACK STOCK IS BECOMING
Properly Arranged, II Should Give Just
the Right Touch to the Tai
lored Costume.

For a tailored waist there Is moth
ing quite SO trig as a black satin
stock, high In proportions and livened
by a white frill of some sort sticking
out under the chin. A decidedly good
looking one of this order Is made in
this way: Buy half yard of heavy
black satin or grosgrain ribbon.
Make this the exact size of the neck,
boning 1t SO that 1t will not sag loose
ly about the throat. The ribbon should
be very wide so that it can be laid
over In fat plaits around the throat.
These are tackled down In place. Do
not fasten in the center back, but on
one side, where a row of tiny white,
fiat pearl buttons is placed. These
run up and down; similar row being
placed at the side opposite. The row
of buttons should come directly under
each ear.
Now comes the piece de resistance
of the entire stock. These are square
tabs of white faille which unfold, petal
like, beneath the chin. One square
comes directly under the chin, one on
either side of the face, another d.
rectly behind each ear and last one
In the back Of the collar. These
square pieces are wired to stand out
like Pierrot run and are very chic
and pretty finish to the somber stock

DREADFUL TO THINK ABOUT
One Cannot Help but Feel That Bar
ney Was Something Of
Pesslmlst.

Timothy McNulty was boss Of a Sec
ton Of southern railway which in
cluded several tunnels. Timothy had
as his guest Barney Mahoney, a new
arrival from old Ireland, and together
they were making an inspection of the
road one morning. AS they neared
one Of the tunnels they were greeted
with the piercing whistle of the limit
ed, and stepped aside until it had
passed. Barney stood In open
mouthed wonder as the fast train
neared, passed and entered the tun-
mel at the rate of so miles an hour.
Amt that foine!" said Timothy,
as the last car finally disappeared.
"Talk about yer wunderful invintionsl
Where'll yer find anythin' ter bate

Barney was awestruck. and 1t was
some moments before he could ade-
quately express his thoughts.
"Yis, Timothy, tits foine," said he,
finally, "but l was jist thinkin' what

The Practical Joker.

In these days filled with an overplus
OF law against this and that, it is to
be regretted that there is not some en-
actment against the practical joker
The newspaper reader is being con-
stantly reminded that this nuisance is
still abroad. Today 1t is the one who
maliciously pulls a chair from under
an acquaintance; yesterday it was the
young man who put sheet over his
head and lay in wait in the shadows
to brighten young girls into Mysteries;
tomorrow it is likely to be the super
bright young man who holds up an
other at the point Of an "unloaded"
revolver, only to find on pulling the
trigger that 1t was loaded. 1t is ex-
ceedingly difficult to imagine what
Joy there can be in misplacing chair
so that a person falls to the floor,
often to his permanent injury. And
yet there are those who profess to
consider this form of practical Joke

LAST BATTLE IN BRITAIN
Was the Victory Of the Duke Of Cum
berland Over the Adherents Of
Charles Edward.

The last battle fought on the soil
OF Great Britain took place in the mid
die of the eighteenth century. While
George II was engaged In the war Of
the Austrian succession Charles Ed
ward, who was called the young pre-
tender, grandson Of King James II
OF England, landed In Scotland and
made two attempts to obtain the
throne OF his ancestors. He was VIC
torious In the battle Of Prestonpans,
but the duke of Cumberland, son Of
George II, having been recalled from
kings forces, the pretender was en-
tirely defeated at Culloden Moor, a
plain in Scotland. four miles from In
verness. This was the last battle
fought on the island Of Great Britain,
and took place April 16, 1746, and 1t
was also the last attempt on the part
Of the Stuart family to recover the
throne Of Great Britain. Charles Ed
Ward Stuart escaped to France after
he had wandered five months in the
Highlands. He died in Rome January
80, 1888. The duke of Cumberland
gave no quarter. The wounded we're
all slain, and the jails of England
were filed with prisoners, many of
whom were executed. Among the lat
ter were Lords Balmerino, Kilmar-
mock and Lovat, Lovat being the last
person who was beheaded In England.

Intsrplanetary Gases.

According to the Scientific American.
some Of the striking changes that take
place In certain comets in their pas
sage through space may be explained
by their encountering stray masses Of
gas. If 1t is true that such masses Of
gas exist, comets would be more than
likely to encounter them. for the incli-
nations and the extents of their orbits
make them especially good explorers.
The planets move In q narrow zone
very near the plane Of the ecliptic.
whereas the inclina ton Of the comet
airy orbits is sometimes considerable:
for the periodic comets 1t varies from 8
to 1872 degrees. Consequently comets
attain regions of the solar system that
no other bodies penetrate. These gas
eous masses. II indeed they exist, are
Of varying chemical composition and
may be considered as fragments of the
initial nebula that escaped the combus-
ton from which the members Of the
solar system arose.

ROMANCE OF A
STREET CAR MISHAP
Careless Man Makes Amends
For ThoughtIessness.

Miss Anderson was very romantic.
She could make a love story out Of
any case where there was marriage or
failure to marry. One day Mr.. and
Mrs. Buddington called, and as they
passed out Miss Cartright came in.
"What singular looking couple, %
remarked Miss Cartright.
do you think SO? Poor things, they
can't help it. That Disagreement is
connected with their courtship. Sit
down; Ill tell you about it."
Miss Cartright seated herself on a
divan and Miss Anderson proceeded.

two got out, attended by sympathetic

Miss Cartright. "How nicely it oil

Every. The drug clerk telephoned
for doctor, who came and bound up
Miss Palmer's nose. That was her
name. Then Mr.. Buddington insisted
on calling a carriage, and the three
were driven to Miss Palmer's home.
".The next day Mr.. Buddington call
ed at Miss Palmer's house to ask how
she was doing. Miss Palmer's mother
came down into the drawing room and
assured Mr.. Buddington that her
daughter was doing very we'll, but her
nose was bandaged and bag Of ice
tied to the end Of 1t to prevent re-
currence of the bleeding. This of course
prevented Miss Palmer from coming
down."
II wouldn't have gone down for a
fortune" said Miss Cartright.
"Mr. Buddington called often, but
Mrs. Palmer always came down in her
stead, making excuses why Miss Palm

it meant. He was dreadfully worried.

"Her nose had been broken"
"How awful"
"Mr. Buddington felt that he was to
blame for the broken nose and was so
sweet about 1t that he quite captivated
the poor girl. He called frequently. al
ways asking her What can do to re-
pair the damage? You see her beauty
was spoiled, and unfortunately her face
was her fortune. He couldn't do any
thing to repair the damage; only doc

PRACTICAL HEALTH HINT. ;
Babies Ears.

The ears are unusually sensi-
tive to sound in infancy. Al
though at birth baby is deaf,
) it hears as rule in twenty-four
; hours. Sometimes the deafness
) may persist for several days.
The deafness is believed to be
) due to absence of air from
, the middle ear and to swelling Of
) the mucous membrane which
lines the tympanum. With the
, movements of respiration, which
begin at birth, the air gradually
finds its way into the middle ear,
and the swelling subsidies the
) first few days Of life. After this
the hearing gradually improves,
and during the early months Of
life 1t is very acute. The infant
starts at the slamming Of the
door, even moderately loud
noises will awaken it from sleep.
By the time the baby is eight
weeks Of age it will sometimes
turn its head in the direction
from which the, sound comes,
and by the time it is four months
Of age this is usually done. It
has been found that infants on
an average ut three and one-half
to four months Of age recognize
the voices Of parents. 1t is ad-
visable always to protect babies
from herring loud noises because
by the marked impression made
upon the brain very loud sounds
cause great fright very often,
and sometimes the nervous shock
Is so severe that commissions may
occur.
