Peter Learns More About
Sooty.
When people laugh at vou--wly then
Laugh with them, and then lnugh again

Whatever happens. never get angry
just because you are being laughed at
Very few folks really enjoy being
laughed at but almost everybody likes
to laugh at some one else. SO when
ever you are being laughed at just
think that you are some one else and
laugh harder than the rest. That is
what Peter Rabbit did when all the
birds of the Old Orchard laughed at
him for his mistake about Sooty the
Swift. You remember that he saw
Sooty go down the chimney of Farmer
Browns house and thought something
had happened to Sooty and that he had
fallen down that chimney. That was
because he didn't know anything about
Soo,y and his ways. So when he told it

as sad news TO his feathered friends
of the Old orchard they laughed them
selves almost sick.
At first Peter was too mortified to
laugh. He was even inclined to be
wee bit angry. But in a minute or
two he had the good sense to see how
really funny his mistake was and to
smile a little and finally to laugh with
all his might. In fact. he laughed the
hardest of any one. That made Jenny
Wren and the other birds think more
of him than ever. and when they had
got through laughing they all gathered
around Peter and declared that it was
high time that he learned some things
about this little neighbor of the air.
whom he had seen ever since he could

little that he could make such a funny
mistake
Where did you think Sooty the
Swift lives?" asked Jenny Wren. cock

| tuate this impression.
Already we know that the high
waist line, the very slim satin skirt
that falls to the floor and the tiny bod
| ice of the Empress Josephine are fea
lures that the exclusive designers in
sist upon. We also know that the
death knell of the outstanding, furbe-
lowed skirt has been sounded.
None of these fashions may come
into the American shops to any extent
during the early autumn. and If events
run close to their past history, the
American women will not take up the
first empire evening skirt or the slim
walking skirt until after Thanksgiving.
But in fashions the wise thing Is to
look forward, after having looked into
the mind of the French designers; and
as nearly as one can see through the
crystal mirror Of experience. they have
the first empire and the Directoire in
their minds. The use of canoes in
this connection is important.

A High-Waisted Coat.

One Of the new top coats that has
been sent over from Paris is of black
velvet with a belt across the front fas-
tened with two large canoes. 1t is suf-
flciently high wasted to give the Di-
rectoire effect. True, there is nothing
else about the coat to indicate that

Over Black Gowns.

The difficulty about choosing black
velvet top coat is that it should be
worn over a black frock, or at least.
one that has a sufficiently deep black
hem to show below the coat
There are women who consider that
black coats and black hats are service
able for all costumes, but in that way
they are definitely mistaken. There
are certain tones of beige, sweet gum
and string that black suits quite well.
but as a rule, if one wants to be within
the lines of good dressing. it is wisest
to wear a black coat over black
gown.
The French coat shown in the sketch
has ample width in the skirt, although
this width hangs in a plumb line from
armholes to hem. The upper part of
the coat shows the slight. well fitted
bodice that we have grown to consider
essential. The shoulder seams are
dropped, and the -o'-mutton sleeves
are a distinct change from the shapes
that we have accepted for two seasons.

HAYDEN AND JACKLING
 AFTER BOLIVIAN MINES

BOSTON, March 21.-Charles Hay den left on Monday for a protracted trip through South America with D. c. Jackling on the latter's yacht Cy- prus. The primary object is to in spect some tin mines in Bolivia which Hayden, Stone & Go. have under op- tion and which they have had engin- eers examining for the past six months. Were all of the options ex- ercised the combined output would constitute about 80 per cent. of the Bolivian production of tin and about % per cent. of the worlds production
 The party will visit Peru and vari- ous places in Chile, including the properties of the Chile and Bradeh Copper companies. The travellers will then cross on the Transandine Rail way from Valparaiso to Buenos Ay- res, the yacht meanwhile going around through the Straits of Magel- Ian and joining the party on the east coast. Mir. Hayden will also inspect some cement properties which his firm has under option in the Argentine, then proceeding along the Atlantic coast to various cities in Brazil and back to Key West. The entire trip will consume about two months.- Boston News Bureau.

Some time ago, the district attorneys office took the ma'- ter up with the attorney-general, ask ing an opinion as to whether or not the legislature had the authority co pass such a statute. On the last mail from the States, a reply was received, in which the attorney general declar- ed that there could be no doubt as to the power of the legislature in this matter; that the body certainly had the right to pass such law.-Ex.

 SAN ANTONIO, April 4. - The European war has so stripped United States of good horses that today U. $. army officers have admitted serious shortage of cavalry re- mounts.
 General Funston has combed Texas without result for available animals capable of standing up under hard campaigning. The buyers of France, Italy and Great Britain have swept Texas bare of cavalry animals.
 st. Louis, Kansas City, Atlanta, Chicago and smaller horse markets now are being investigated by army officers in the hope of obtaining a suf- u,icut supply in a hurry Here also, however. the army men found that the buyer for the warning nations or Europe had preceded them.
 American cavalry regiments are reported to be short now of rcmouuts needed in real campaign work and  should many be lost in fighting the problem would become grave. State cavalry regiments too are reported as generally deficient in cavalry animals.

People who are confined within

produce strong muscles and vitality
and the formation of unsightly and
unhealthy fat is the result.
If you are 10 or 20 pounds above
normal weight you are drawing on
your reserve strength and are con-
stantly lowering your vitality by car

sons who are satisfied in their own
mind that they are too stout are adj
vised to go to the City Drug Store or
any other good druggist and get a
box of oil of korein capsules, and
