TWO THINGS NOT LOOKED FOR
Even Stolid Englishman Saw the HUI
NOR in One of Josh Billings
Famous Jokes.

Andrew Carnegie told a good story
at the expense of Matthew Arnold in
his Autobiography" 1t seems that
the English critic was not successful
in his lectures in the United States,
but he was anxious to learn, and he
asked how Josh Billings held his au-
dience. The American humorist re-
piled: well, you mustn't keep them
laughing too long, or they will think
you are laughing at them. After giv-
ing the audience amusement you must
become earnest and play the serious
role. For instance, There are two
things in this life for which no man
is ever prepared. Who will tell me
what these areT Finally some one
cries out, Death We'll, who gives
me the otherY Many respond
wealth, happiness, strength, marriage,
taxes. AT last Josh begins solemnly !:
None of you has given the second.
There are two things on earth for
which no man is ever prepared, and
them's twins and the house shakes" !"
Mr.. Arnold did also.

A Feeling Of Security

You naturally feel secure when you
know that the medicine you are about to
take is absolutely pure and contains no
harmful or habit producing drugs.
Such medicine is DR.. Kilmer's Swamp
Root, kidney, liver and bladder remedy.
The same standard of purity, strength
and excellence is maintained in every
bottle of Swamp-Root.
Itt is scientifically compounded from
vegetable herbs.
1t is not stimulant and is taken in
teaspoonful doses.
1t is not recommended for everything.
1t is natures great helper in relieving
and overcoming kidney, liver and blad-
der troubles.
A sworn statement of purity is with
every bottle of DIR. Kilmer's Swamp
Root
If you need a medicine, you should
have the best. On sale at all drug stores
in bottles of two sizes, medium and large
However, if you wish first to try this
great preparation send ten cents to DR.
Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y, for a
sample bottle. When writing be sure and
mention this paper.-Adv.

NOT WHAT THEY LOOKED FOR
Audience, Like Readers of Novels,
Wanted What They Had Been
Used to Getting.

DR.. William Lyon Phelps of Yale
said at a dinner in Philadelphia:
'The average popular novelist and
his audience are very, very-well, it
reminds me of story.
IAN Old-time music hall artist turned
up, after some years of absence, in
a certain provincial town where he
had once been a great favorite. He
went on in his usual make-up-bulb-
GUS red nose and so forth-expecting
a grand reception, but all his efforts
were received in gloomy silence.
whats the matter with 'em? he
said afterward to the stage manager,
and he dashed tear from his eye.

NO. Bill, they amt forgotten YOU
said the manager in a kindly voice.
No, it amt that, but you've changed

Gray Is Color
of the Moment

with blouses that, while they are most
ly plain, are still made with quantities
of handWork and a sufficient number
of frills to make them becoming.
The serge dresses are made on the
simplest of lines. Really they have
the slightest amount of fit and the
smallest amount of material to make
them notable. But they are apt
TO be embroidered in some way or
trimmed with little facings or edgings
in some bright color of silk or silk
braid that gives them that fresh chic
which makes them notable There are
any number Of gray dresses made of
serge and worn with big black or dark

light, say gray, upper section and
lower section of the black or dark
blue, a narrow belt of the darker tone
being used to hold them to a semblance
of form about the waist line.
Evening dresses have their predilec-
ton for gray, and when it is not ex-
actly gray then those tones of mauve
and light blue creep in and become
that shading between gray and some
more vivid color when one is not sure
under the night lights exactly what
the tone may be. There are layers and
layers of chiffon about these simple
little evening frocks, and sometimes
many shades of the same color and
combined in such subtle manner that
one is not sure where one tone leaves
off and the other begins. The skirts
are made in a succession of frills or
in an arrangement of petal formations
so that they become just soft masses
of the becoming material. And as for
trimming, there is none, or perhaps it
is but band of ribbon about the
waist line or a. bunch of artificial
f(owers-just tiny little flowers. The
hOdices are simply finished by edgings
of picoting, and the more often than
not there are 10 sleeves at all.
Evening Gowns of TuIle.
AS always at this time of the year,
there are any number of tulle evening
gowns to be seen This season it is
the real silk net, and the colors are
the most beautiful that have been seen
in a long while. They are made up
over foundations of chiffon, while un-
derlying slips are often done in a con-
trasting color to provide a variance of
| tone.
( Then there are the dyed laces for
evening gowns that are being worn q
great deal. They are combined either
with tulle or with chiffon and some.
times with cotton net, but always the
! material and the trimming seem to
have been dipped in the same dye so
luton. for there is not a whit of di.
vergence between their shades. There
is the popular frock that is made
with a skirt covered with dyed lace
rulings and with the plain little bod
ice made of chiffon in the same tone
Then there is another model that has
a skirt made entirely of plated tulle
fiounces and bodice made of the dyed
lace draped or fitted as the individual
figure may demand.
The dresses that are coming along
the ones that the smart dressmaker:
are showing for wear a little later il
the season, are those of taffeta will
trimmings of lace or organdie. These
are the frocks that will be so good fol

too hot for a wrap of any sort. The
taffeta frOcks, too, are tremendously
satisfactory for afternoon wear, fol
they retain a freshness of line anC
contour that is always pleasing. II
Paris at the Longchamps races there
were displayed a number of taffet;
dresses of this sort with very full
skirts, sometimes ruffled over their en-
tire surfaces.

Gray is the predOminating color of
the moment. If there is any doubt as
to the truth of this sweeping state
ment, writes a New York fashion cor
respondent, then visit the smart res
taurantS at any hour of the day or
take a walk up Fifth avenue or any
other street and note what is seen.
There is so much of this shade, indeed,
that one stops a moment to wonder
just how long it will last and what
the next change in color will be.
There are signs pointing toward the
lighter shades of tan, for now and then
a champagne gown or coat or cape is
seen, and it brings a nice relief from
the prepOnderance of the various
tones of gray.
Just now if a costume is not all
gray from tip to toe then it seems to
take pride in having some touch of
gray about it, if it is only the feather
dropping from the brim of the hat or
the shoes of gray worn with a frock
that is otherwise quite dark and in
conspicuous. Gray, indeed, has taken
its place along with the shades of dark
blue and black as being an accepted
out-Of- doors color as well as a favorite
tone for wear within doors. 1t is
good for the young and for the old.
In fact, it recognizes no class or dis
tinction as to age or stature. 1t is the
all around good color of the season,
and women are making the most of it's
popularity to use it in every possible
way.
Hat, Shoes, Gloves in Gray.
One of the favOrite methods of wear
ing gray when the whole costume is
| not in tone is to have the hat and
shoes and gloves of that color, each of
them matching each other exactly in
| tone. Not a few of the gray silk
crepe dresses are adorned with fringe,
and this is always in the same tone
as the materials from which the frock
Is fashioned. Gray capes and those
| Of that color combined with one por-
ton of dark blue are among the smart
est that are to be seen upon the
| streets. One is a model fresh from the
WI AOoLlS VI OS1lllJ III dIlS. Hts up
per section Is made in gray woolly ma
terial and the lower section is made
Of some thick material in black en-
broidered with threads of the gray
| drawn through it to form plaid de-
sign. The cape is one of those new
lines that are quite scant in width and
perfectly straight in line, hanging from
little yoke that fits the shoulders
snugly and supports a straight collar.
The hat worn with the cape shows
how large the hats can be worn when
they reach the limits of the French
fashion for this season. Indeed, there
is no limit to the extremes of width
which they attain, and even then they
| do not remain content, but must su-
perimpOse at that exaggerated line
trimming of some sort that makes
them appear even wider. In this in
stance it is a loosely arranged POM
pom of stiff little feathers, but often
it is an ostrich puff or a bow of tulle
Or a dropping feather or some stray
bits of flowers or fruit hanging from
The edge. The brims droop either al
both sides or all the way round, as
the case may be. The trimmings are

taurant as it is for a man to do so, and
are accommodating themselves to this
idea, wearing yestees often in lieu
of waists, and giving little thought to
the waist other than its effectiveness
as a front and a collar.

BREEDING WILD DUCKS

Breeding and preserving Of true
game birds, grouse, partridge and
pheasants, is an old and well estab-
lished industry in England and on the
continent of Europe. Breeding wild
ducks for sport and profit is quite
modern. A few years ago it was be-
lieved that wild ducks would fly away,
says the American Forestry associa-
ton. But since we have learned that

Fashion Note.

Is the straight line of slenderness
more graceful than the curve of beau
ty? 1t would seem that the costumers
this spring are striving to bring the
two schools of thought together. Some
insist that severely straight lines are
the shortest distance to fashion, while
others believe the suggestion of a
curve is essential.

are more easily kept at home than
any other species of game, nearly
every country place and game pre-
serve in England has an abundance,
and already there are thousands of
wild duck breeders in America.
