USE TURNOVER COLLAR MUCH
Extends to the WaistIine in Many
Street Dresses--Trimness and
Simplicity Noticeable.

Loose panels or plated panels, In
yaried lengths, predominate in street
dresses, and there Is preponderance
Of the turnover collar extending to the
waistline.
The regulation round or square col
lar also continues to be popular. A
pew coat-dress shows standing col
lar, the dress fastening on the side to
the waistiine.
Trimness and simplicity are particu-
larly notable In street dresses. AL
though afternoon dresses may be cut
on similar lines. there is a decided
tendency toward the use of two mate
rials, silk, crepe and satin, crepe and
serge, etc, and there is q great amount
OF drapery and plaits in evidence.
Richness of effect is added TO many
dresses by the use of satin body lin
ing under crepe, in contrasting or self,
rclor.

idea Applied to Beth Skirt and Jacket
in Collection of Spring Models
from patAs.

Possibly the mest salient feature ot
the collection Of models for spring
brought over TO New York from Paris
is the prominence Of the aonase idea.
This does not apply only to TIE skirt,
for the elongated jacket Is "a feature of
the zonasc dress, as is aise ths bound.
In hipline, and these featules ARE nll
repeated and played upon In this col.
lection.
While IL may not seem that there IL
anything startllngly new in dropped
walstline, the manner In which the
hips are bound, the iacket and tbs
showing of the blouse section under
the jacket Is distinctive. 1t produces
really another silhouette which, al.
though narrow, is not straight and
binds in around the hips.

Doinu Thinus Wronu.

In bachelor days Mark Twain had
heartily expressed the antipathy of
bachelOrdom for all chambermaids be-
cause Of their hostile ideas Of tidiness.
"They always put the pillow on the
opposite end of the bed from the gas
burner" he wrote, $50 that white you
read and smoke before sleeping as is
the ancient and honorable custom of
bachelors, you have to hold your book
aloft, in an uncomfortable position, to
keep the light from dazzling your eyes.
If they cannot get the light in an in
convenient position any other way,
they move the bed. They always put
your books into inaccessible places.
They always put the matchbox in
some other spot. They hunt up a new
place for it every day and put up a
bottle or other perishable glass thing
where the box stood before. This is to
cause you to break that glass thing
They always save up all the old scraps
Of printed rubbish you have thrown on
the floor and stand them carefully on
the table and start the fire with your
valuable MSS"

MEMORIAL DAY.

Muffe the drums, and follow with
measured step and slow
The flag Of our glorious nation that
all of us love and know,
Hark to the tread of soldiers as they
march along on their way,
For thi is the day we cherish-this
is Memorial Day
See the old veterans passing-fewer
they are this year
Bowed are their heads, and si1vered,
but still in their hearts no fear.
These are the boys who answered the
call back in Sixty-one;
They braved all for home and country
paused not It'll their work was
done.
Once more the call is sounding ito
arms" as in days before,
Once more we will need defenders,
for the foe is now at our door.
Flag of our glorious nation-fag of
our hearth and home
Flag of our dear and loved ones, you
shall not go alone.
Let us take heed and a lesson from
these boys in the faded blue
For they gave all for the country-as
perhaps we may have to do;
And as we strew the blossoms today
DER the heroes grave.
Let us remember truly all that in life
they gave.
When the salute has crashed out and
the bugle is sounding taps"
Let us renew allegiance to home and
fag-and perhaps
In day that may not be distant when
our youth may have work to do,
We all will take heed and listen to
the boys in the faded blue

ORDER MOBILIzES
GUARD ON JUNE 15

On June Is, the Wisconsin National
guard and men enlisted in the Nation
al guard reserve will be mustered in
to the federal service, Adj Gen. Or
lanCo Holway announced upon his re-
turn from Washington, D. c., where
he conferred with Secretary of War
Baker.
On or about June IS, Gen Holway
said, the men will be modified at
Camp Douglas for a period Of inten-
siye training. Early in October the
Badger state force will be sent some
where in Texas" and authorities at
Madison believe they will be among
the first to be sent to the firing line in
France.
Two-thirds Of the Eleventh division
of the army of the United States will
be composed Of the guard from this
state, with Michigan filing out the di-
vision. This means, Gen. Holway said,
that the fighting men from Wisconsin
will remain in one division.
In addition to six regiments of in
fantry in the division, the state viii
raise six training battalions of 1000
each, these men to remain at Camp
Douglas until they are called upon to
fill gaps in the unit to which Badger
guardsmen have been assigned In
Guiding the training battalions, Wis
cOnsin will raise q fighting force of
about 22,400 men.

TRICKS OF THE SHOPLIFTER
and Line to Pull Desired Article
Up Into His Sleeve.

A man walked into big New York
department store and asked to be
shown some silk petticoats, says the
Pathfinder. The average person would
have seen nothing unusual in the way
he leaned over the counter and fin
gered the silks, but to the store detec-
tive, trained to keep a sharp eye out
for crooks and light-fngered customers,
his actions appeared suspicious. :.
Moving casually il his direction, she
heard him say: 'sThese things are no
good. You see it's my wife's birthday
tomorrow and want to get her some
thing nice. Please see if you haven't
something better.' The clerk turned
TO take down more petticOatS from the
shelves, and while she was thus en-
gagged the detective saw silk skirt
rise from the counter and crawl, al
most like live thing, up the volunlin-
OILS sleeve of the mans coat.
She had him taken to the office.
There four silk skirts and several
dainty, expensive pieces of merchan-
disc were taken from his sleeves. His
method of operating was readily dis
covered; a string with big fishhOok
attached to its end ran up his sleeve.
While he fingered over the goods, pre-
tending to examine them, he would
deftly thrust the hook into whatever
pleased his fancy. Then he would
maneuver to take the clerks attention
away from the counter and by pulling
on the string draw the garment up into
his big sleeve.

AGE or THE CONCORD GRAPE
Oldest Vine in Existence Is Less Than
Seventy Years Old-CataWba Is
Fifty Years Older.

Some things seem to have existed
from the beginning of time, simply be-
cause we have always been aecus-
toned to seeing them. One of these is
the Concord grape. This grape is prob
ably more largely grown in America
than any other variety, though it's pre-
dominance is of comparatively recent
date. The oldest Concord grape vine
in existence is much younger than
many persons now living. 1t is, In
fact, less than seventy years old. The
catawba grape is nearly fifty years
older, but 1T never attained to the Con
cords popularity. The grape, how
ever, is not an isolated case. When
we begin to inquire into the history
of almost any of our varieties of fruit,
we find that all are of comparatively
recent origin. The varieties in culti-
vation one hundred years ago were
seldom up to the standards we hold at
present. Probably the fruits of an
other generation will In their turn ex-
eel those which we regard SO highly

The Busy Birds.

One form of national waste which Is
far more serious than the American
people realize is a result of the deplor-
able neglect to conserve bird life in
this needless and ungrateful country.
OrnithOloGists and other intelligent
observers of nature who have made a
study of the subject say with the sane
ton of crop experts that insects de-
strOy one-tenth of the products of agri-
culture in the United States. Nearly
all birds destroy insect life. The fed
eral department of agriculture has
found that among the birds which
most effectively aid the farmers are
phoebes, kingbirds, catbirds, swallows,
brown thrushes, rosebreasted gros-
beaks, house wrens, vireos, native spar
rows, cuckoos, orioles, warblers, shore
larks, loggerhead shrikes and meadow
larks. Even the crow and the crow
blackbird, which have rested under sus-
picion so long, do more good than harm
to the farmers.-Chicago News.

Animals in Fire.

Most animals are afraid of fire, and
will fly from it in terror. To others
there is a fascination abeut 4 fame.
and they will walk into it, even though
tortured by the heat.
A horse in a burning stable goes
mad with fear, but dog is as cool in
fire as at any time. He keeps his nose
down to the floor, where the air is pur-
est, and sets himself calmly to finding
his way out. Cats in fire cry piteously.
They hide their faces from the light
and crouch in corners. When their
rescuer lifts them they are as rule
quite docile and subdued, never biting
or scratching.
Birds seem to be hypnotized by fire,
and keep perfectly still; even the To-
quacious parrot in fire has nothing
to say. Cows, like dogs, do not show
alarm. They are easy to lead forth,
and often find their way out them.

Pianos and Climate.

Because the piano is constructed of
materials that are affected by varying

protect it as much as possible. Mois-
tSre is one of the most frequent causes
Of deterioration in a piano, and this
is not to be wondered at when we con-
slider that the instrument is chiefly con-
structed Of wood, cloth, skin and felt.
The three chief enemies of the piano
are damp, the sun, and a draft. If
the room is at all damp, the tone be-
comes dull, the wires rust and once
rust gets hold, the tone can never be
restored. 1t is possible to get the rust
removed, but the tone will be thinner
The temperature should not be below
so degrees, and not over 80 degrees
Fahrenheit. This is not always possi-
bic, but it is we'll to know what tenn
peratures to avoid, so that one may
keep the piano as far away from them
as circumstances permit.
