DESIGNS FOR SHADE HATS FOR OUT
DOOR WORKERS.
Just til© Thlncf for Women-Folks Who
Are Much In the Open Air and! Who
Csinnot Be Troubled With Paiatoln.
V.f More Tanned Pares If This Device
Be Worn.
There seems to be nothing procurable
just now that will furnish protection
against tho sun except what are termed
garden shade hats, and one can hardly
be comfortable wearing one of these on
a hot day without a parasol also. They
are very nice for some purposes, but f<>
those who wish to spend long days in
the iields they do not afford a very effect
ive protection against tan and sunburn.
Sun bonnets, so often resorted to by tho
uninitiated, though nico for the complex
., ion if made largo enough, are soon found
to be a delusion as far us comfort is con
cerned, their close, flapping sides effectu
ally shutting out sound and air. Tho
arrangement hero represented is the re
sult of a sudden inspiration which came
to a lady often called to spend a part
of the hot summer days in the
open Held. Veils boing a nuisance, para
sols u hindrance and her out-of-door oc
cupation a necessity, she happened to,
hit upon the device illustrated, which is
simply a plaiting of pnper tackod to the ■
rim of a common garden hat. Sho tried
tho experiment for one day; it wo so
satisfactory that she has enlarged her
hut. ill that way for several seasons and
% considers the question of shade settled,
as she desires nothing better, lighter or
more airy.
■ IBbi
SIKVICEABLE SHADE HATS.
Any hat with a rim that does not roil
up will do to enlarge, but one that can 1'
le nt down at the sides is best; any k!
.>f paper may be used except tissue. T"
make a four inch plaiting, take a long
strip of paper nine inches wide, fold it
lengthwise in the middle and lay it in
plaits about an inch wide and tack it to
the under edge of the hat rim, with the
doubled edge of the paper outward. An
ecru or yellow straw with a plaiting of
line, firm wrapping paper very nearly the
same color lookß much better than one
would suppose. Ties or a bridle may he
pinned under the trimming at the sides,
with which to draw tho rim down if the
wind blows; many prefer to use ties in
any weather, but of course the rim is not
brought down so closely as to touch the
face or prevent a free circulation of air.
. These hats completely protect tho head
and body from the heat of the sun and
arc a boon to farmers' wives and
daughters, many of whom koop one or
two always in readiness for immediate
use. One plaiting will often last tin ugh
the season, but as it takes only a few mo
ments to make the addition, it is wort a
doing if it is only for one day's u
lias been proved many times by summer
visitors who, after seeing one, invariably
enlarge their hats for their berrying ex
cursions and long rambles, A merry party
of girls en route for the berry pasture
with bright young faces shaded b.
spreading paper rays of some becoming
color, is a pretty sight, and they have
the comfort of daring tho sun all day a a I
returning wb fair as when they started, a
consideration not to be under-rated at
any time, especially in these days of
white dresses, which, though universally
becoming, always seem to intensify the
color in a tanned face.—American Agri
culturist.
Boating and Tennis Gowns.
The centennial boating and tennis
gowns worn this season are exceedingly
tasteful and charming. Their national
color-mixtures of red, white and blue not
, only celebrate the glory of the yoar, but
follow a style originated by the Princess
of Wales, who particularly affects these
colors. Usually there is an open jacke'
• of red and blue striped serge, with a very
wide collar of dark red or blue velvet,
vest and undersleeves of cream-white
crepe cloth, or on more expensive suits
these are of cream-white washing silk.
These undersleeves are in full bishop
style, gathered into a band at the wrist.
They come from under close ones of the
stripe, which reach just below the elbow,
ending in a rounded point. Silver but
tons Jike those worn by officers on royal
yachts are set on each side of the jacket.
A Beautiful Toilet.
One of the most beautiful toilets seen
this summer is made of palest golden
green watered silk, draped with green
tulle sprayed with line gold leaves. The
dress is in princess shape, demi-traincd.
The bodice is cut out square front and
back, and veiled lightly with the tulle.
The sleeves are short, and the garniture
tonsistsof trailing sprays of pink ro-c
and foliage, mingled with pale yellow
honeysuckle blossoms. A tail slender
blonde of the purest golden typo wears
this toilet to the admiration of all who
behold her in it.
Artistic Trn-Gonni.
The artistic medimval tea-gowns, with
cuirass corsage and full s! irts. are very
charmingly made of the soil beautifully
tinted silk muslins, brocaded with roses
and foliage. These are invariably made
up over silk linings the h ide of liio
gown. Neither ribbons no: Ho vers are
worn witli these dresses. but upon the
corsage is a deep turn-down collar ol
Venetian lace, this reaching to a deoided
point on tlie front of the V-shape opening
in the neck. There are lace cuffs >r>
match.
TmKfillng the M PH.
The caprice for borrowing details from
masculine attire grows still more evi
dent. and ir, tailor-made walking suits
and teunts and yachting costumes there
is le.ally very little except the skirt to
distinguish them from men's dress. Soft
felt huts In hhiek, white and gray are
worn, caps will" cloth er leather visors,
stiff neckties with scarf pins; sudor knots
and colluis, vats and cutaway jackets,
link but. OIIS, shirt waists with studs, and
so on. These little affectations appear
most charmingly with sweet sixteen.
Quotations from Hhakspere In raised
letters appear upon some of the newest
bangle bracelets.
Oarden lichus and half shawls a'
' white muslin and iaco are worn with
bats of shirred muslin to correspond.
IX A HOLE IN THE GROUND.
Story of a Gold Hunter In the Belt Moun
tains of Montana.
Every resident of Montana and many
visitors to the famous territory know
that the Belt mountains have always
been the seat of mysterious stories, and
that iu their numerous gulches and
onnons hnv • been picked up wonderful
relies. Ai etig the no t carious are
agnized human nmxillaiies and teeth,
all of gigantic size. Gold iu quantities
has been found in the Belt mountains,
and rubles, sapphires, and even dla-
u elds are shown as products of one or
tr other portion of the territory. Tho
.I' o'iia correspondent of the St. Paul
"Plonoer-Press" sends a remarkable
story, accompanied by n unc as attes
(alms to its truth T wit - told by a
I hunter. He s i-1 that Itilo pros
nccting in the Belt Mountains ho found
a peculiar depression in he ground.
After o.u uvating he seoverod a myste
rious cavern, reached by twenty-three
steps.
"At the foot of the stairs." said ho,
"on one side of the passage lay tho skel
eton of anuan of immense sta'uro. Tho
s.otieton measured exaotly nine feet six
inches in height. 'The skull lay a few
inches from tin trunk, and between the
two lay twenly-sovon nuggets. They
were . rung < i n fine gold wire, and
ranged from one ounce to ten In weight.
Around tho riiigh, arm, and shin bones
were other strings of nuggets, none of
which weighed more than four ounces,
•there were abutit fifteen pieces of gold
iu tho pile. They we >of m ny liferent
shapes. None of them weighed over
three ounces, und each piece had a hole
through the center. On each side of the
skuil X found some sou of precious
stoues. They lay iu a tiny golden basket,
and were evidently worn in tho cars.
"Beside the trunk of the skeleton I
found a copper ax, with an edge harder
and keener than any steel instrument of
the kind I have ever seen. On tho opposite
side was. a club made of the same motal
as the nx. It was shaped not unlike a
base ball bat. Under the trunk was a
gold plate ton inches long, six inches
wide, and one-eighth of an inch thick. It
was covered with strange devices. A lit
lie further on lay ttnol her skeleton, that
ufa woman. I picked up a string of
nuggets near this skull also. Thoy were
perfectly round and exactly tho same
size. They weighed about throe ounces
apiece. Every now uud then I came to
other skeletons, und, although by nearly
every one of them I found necklaces, yot
strange to say they wore made of round
copper bails.
"The catacombs, us I have named this
pa -sage, arc about 300 feet long, four
teen l'eot wide, aud thirty high, and seem
to have been cut out of tiro solid rook.
At i tie end of the gallery is a room sixty
feet square and fort;, high. In the con
fer of this room stands a block of granite
j about twelvo foot square and four foot
high. It seems as though the rock had
been hewn out around it. It is perfectly
square, and It is exactly tho same dis-
Lanco from tho walls of the room on
every side. There are steps out in tho
rock leading to the top of tho hall. On
the top stands another block of granite,
ten feet long, four.w ,le, and three high.
This is hollowed out In the shape of a
human form. Around the in >m were
scattered vessels of clay, sonic of which
will hold twonty-flvo gallons. They are
light, yet tougher than wrought iron. 1
tried to break ono of them hy dashing it
against the grnnito flooring of tho room.
I could not even scratch it. Altogether
I gathered up 500 ounces of gold iu the
underground passage."
Sympathy for Cyras.
One boy, from personal predileotion,
felt sympathy for Gyrus, who entered tho
battle with "his head bare." In his ex-
■ oiuont he transposed a little, and
presented the hero as going to the light
with his hair bed." Tlmt would be u
luxury indeed ! This specimen of trans
position reminds one of a girl who thrice
/led to say "eggs and bacon." She
began with "bogs," continued with
aches," and ended with "bakes." After
the third failure she retired from a con
test to which she was unequal. We
have all heard of the warriors who
showed their indifference to the foo by
combing their hair.
One boy preferred to speak of "com
bining." I)id he think this a smart word
for "plaiting," or was he simply careless?
It seems to be thought now i.hat no boys
are careless or idle—all error lias a physi
cal origin; the dear thing- need a doc
uot a stifle. But t his is a digression.
..! I- ■ we are. like the natters friend,
• ; '.ling personal," we may observe that
i .in person was said to ue "recognized
a scar on the face"; this seem
range, con-ddericg the context. On
tuning to the lext, the words so trans
lated were found to be "in deformituto
one visus est."

A l'*t Deer 11 ii.S the Dot;..
The Hon. Clarence I'ulleu, recently
surveyor general of New Mexico, contri
butes, to the "Youth's Companion" an in
teresting sketch of a small menagerie
which he collected at Las Vegas Hot
Springs. Incidentally he relates this:
"(ui coming to reside at the ifol
Springs in November, 1881, 1 observed
feeding about the grounds a young buck
which had been captured as a fawn the
summer before, and wlucli roved at large,
wearing a bell for protection against, tile
chance of an encounter with hunters In
the hills. My first Intimate acquaintance
with this aniiual was rather startling. I
was going, one frosty winter evening,
from my office to the hotel, when the
tinkle of a bell, mingled with barking and
yelping, attracted my attention.
The deer, pursued by a pack of Mexi
can curs, was hounding across the snowy
grounds. It made straight for the light
viiieli streamed through the doorway of
Lie hotel, and without hesitation leaped
with a crash through one of the glass
doors and lauded on the floor inside
a aid a shower of splintered glass, u>
the great astonishment uud consterna
tion of a group Of loungers gathered
about the oflieo stove. The dogs sneaked
away, while the deer, having reached a
place of safety, stood within nhurt and
perfectly quiot."—Youth's Companion.
A Fly-Catching Mouse.
A crowd of about fifty persons collected
in Westchoster, Pu., recently, to look at
the successful operations of ally trap
in one of the office windows. It was an
animated one, and consisted of a live
mouse, which impelled rather by hunger
than enmity toward the familiar insect,
bravely faced the curious populace In or
der to secure its supper.
The little animal was most active in its
operations, jumping up and down to all
parts of the window, and securing a prize
every time. It is impossible to estimate
lite number of flies caught, but so suc
cessful was the work of the mouse that
grocers and others bothered with the
summer visitor, the fly, are thinking of
engaging the services of the mouse.—-

Catarrhal Qcafmsa and (lay Fever.
A N'KW lIOME TREATMENT.
Sufferers ttre not generally aware that
these diseases are contagious, or that they
v -z due to tIH! presence of living parasites in
the lining membrane of the nose and eus
tachian tubes. Microscopic research, how
ever, lias proved this to be a faot aiul the
result is that a simple remedy lias been for
mulated whereby cntarrh, catarrhal deafness
and hay fever "are permanently cured in
from one, to three simple applications made
at hoihe by the patient once in two weeks.
N. B For catarrhal discharges peculiar to
females (whites) this remedy is a specific.

HOW IT WORKED.
" Good morning, Jack ! why I haven't
seen you for a month past. What in the
world is the matter with you ? You seem
to have renewed your youth."
" Well Phil, I have. Don't you remem
ber the last time I saw you, how misera
ble I was ? Sick aud blue, and in that
sort of mood a man gets sometimes when
he feels the most noble tiling in life is to
go straight to the devil."
" Not so had as that, I hope : at all
events you didn't go that way, you are
looking far too happy and hearty.'"
" Thank goodness, no ! or rather, thank
Vinegar Bitters. Do you remember that
day* f saw you last, when you recommend
ed that remedy to me so persistently, and
I w is first vex"d and then half convinced."
I remember it perfectly, and you
needn't say another word upon the sub
ject : your looks tell me that you took the
medicine."
"No doubt of it: everybody remarks
upon my improved looks and temper; but
I must really tell you all about it. I got
the old style, as you recommended, and
didn't mind the bitter taste at all. I fin
ished the bottle in about two weeks, and
was greatly improved, so much so that
I determined to change off and try the
new style.
" Well, how did you like it?"
" You told me your wife preferred th
new style, I believe; well, I must say I agre
with her. I like the old stylo very much
hut the new is a finer, smoother, more ex
pensive preparation."
" I believe it is; in fact, I have heard
so, and 1 wonder the McDonald Drug
Company- sell it for the same price they
do the o'd style, because it is really a very
cosily preparation."
" Well, that dosn't concern us. Who
was it said that people fancied themselves
pious sometimes when they were only
idlious ? No matter ! 1 was only going to
say that I believe people often seem wicked
when it is only their liver, or their stom
ach. or some other cantankerous organ of
the body so out of order they couldn't be
good if tbey tried."
"And if all the miserable dyspepsia,
and victims of biliousness, headache and
the thousand and one ills that flesh is heir
to would only take Vinegar Bitters, what
a happy world this would be .' "
"I should recommend the new style."
" I never go back on the old style."
" Well, they can pay their money and
take their choice, for both kinds work ad
mirably."
