MIDSUMMER FABRICS.
Organdies, Muslin*, Laces and Voiles of
the Dantlcst Designs.
One sees little but summer goods
nowadays at largo shops. One of the
daintiest designs of the sheer fabrics
lis the pin point dot of black or color
/ lon white ground. Ordinary Swiss mus
♦ lin seems to be next in favor, nnd
makes charming gowns, but all light
and summery goods are in demand.
r
L While white is popular for "dressy"
gowns, the average woman of good
sense and taste prefers colors for her
ordinary wearing apparel, not wishing
to be dressed at all times as If for a
garden party. China or navy blue, let
tuce green or wood brown grounds,
with delicate mofits of white, may be
as bewitchlngly pretty as one pleases,
and infinitely more serviceable than
white. Tho quantity of lace that is
now used for trimming makes It possi
ble to Impart every airy charm to any
color if the fabric is filmy and fine.
* • •
The so-called "wash suits" frequent
ly are far removed from the possibil
ity of easy laundering, so elaborately
are they made, but the "shirt waist
6ult" of dark pique or linen is a useful
addition to any woman's wardrobe.
Neither material is thin enough for
extremely hot days, it is true, but
either is perfect for the cool days that
are frequent in tho summer months,
♦ en which organdies and muslins are
Imprudent.
• •
Gowns of guipure or Cluny lace are
highly favored this season, being less
perishable than other laces. A love
ly costume for a garden fete was made
of a flounce of Cluny on a white taf
feta drop skirt, with a tunic of all
over Cluny. Tho flounce and the
tunic's hem were edged with a scroll
design of narrow gold braid, nnd the
former was headed with a band of
broader width.
• • •
Some of the new guipures have a
touch of delicate color In portions of
the design, nnd tho effect is charming.
Some ingenious women have been
known to introduce a thread of color
into white laces by outlining the most
prominent flower or figure in the pat
tern. The coarser laces may be made
Immensely chic in this way.
• • *
One can hardly go astray In tho
choice of thin fabrics, as moussellnes,
♦ chiffons end all other diaphanous ma
terials, plain or embroidered, are equal
ly liked. Linen and silk gauze, organ
dies, Lyons grenadines and Calais
laces may be selected as one chooses
With no fear of mistake.
* • *
'Apropos of the rage for white, it may
be remarked that white hosiery, so
long threatening a return, has actually
arrived nnd Is begging for admission
to modish wardrobes with such suc
cess that one may expect to see stock
ings of finest white silk and lisle worn
by fashionable women whose gowns
are white. They will be invariably in
the most delicate lace openwork ef
fects.
* * •
Voile is of all woolen fabrics the best
adapted to summer wear. A fetching
tailor made costume of pearl gray
voile, lately shown, had a waistcoat of
palest blue taffeta fastened with tiny
silver buttons. The eollarless Eton
4 was trimmed with a stitched band of
I' the taffeta, edged with silver braid a
quarter of an inch wide, and the nar
row circular flounce on tho skirt was
headed by a similar band applied In
on almost battlemented design, edged
above and below with silver braid.
White voile and tan are popular, also,
for summer tailored gowns.—New
York Tribune.
Itest Rooms Fur Buslnes, Women.
There are in the down-town Chicago
business district more than a dozen
rest rooms, where the self-supporting
woman may enjoy an hour's comfort
When she goes to lunch. Of these the
one called the "Noonday Rest" may
serve as a type.
Established several years ago by a
few earnest and enthusiastic womeD,
within a month tho "Rest" had 000
members, with many more on the wait
lng list. To-day the membership ros
■ ter shows 1400 names, and the "Rest"
> ls'in every sense of the word a club
home. A fee of twenty-five cents a
month entitles a self-supporting
woman to join. This procures for her
the freedom of a suite of well fur
nished rooms, including reception hall,
office, library, music room, parlor, bed
room, sewing room, lunch and lecture
room. No article on the menu costs
more than five cents, and as many of
them cost less than that sum a good
hot luncheon may be obtained for ten
cents.
Between the hours of 12 and 2 o'clock
daily 1200 young women may be seen
In the lunchroom, which Is airy and
light and tastefully decorated. The
members enjoy the privilege of a cir
culating library of GOO volumes. Cur
rent literature magazines and tho daily
newspapers are on the library table,
and the members read these In rooms
adorned with painting and statuary
that have been bought at the annual
1 exhibitions of Chicago artists. The
V rest rooms are provided with lounges
and reeking chairs, and a matron Is
always in attendance, while a woman
, physician gives her services freo of
gitarge.—Chicago Itccord-Uerald.
Concerning Sleeves.
Under-sleeves are still la favor, mads
of lace, chiffon, batiste, liberty silk—of
any material different from the rest
of the gown. They lit close to the arm
or are In puffs, and some even are
shirred; but none of them are ugly or
exaggerated. The sleeve that stops
Just at the elbow, or a little below it,
flnished there with a turned-back cuff,
is not nearly so popular as it has been,
probably because it is usually unbe
coming. It is much less graceful than
the sleeve that finishes below the el
bow in a ruffle or flares in an exagger
ated copy of the coat sleeve. Thin
gowns look well with elbow sleeves,
but one style that is fashionable is
most unbecoming; this is the sleeve fin
ished below the elbow with folds of
muslin or silk and without ruffle or
flare. It is one of the most trying
styles ever designed, nnd yet Beems to
have a firm hold on the affections of
many women. An attractive sleeve
which looks equally well made of silk,
muslin, or cloth, is just a little larger
than the arm, and reaches not quite
to the wrist, where it is finished in
squares, and shows underneath a full
puff of the same material, gathered
into a bnnd. The reason this is so be
coming is that is has lines long enough
to make the arm appear graceful.—
Harper's Bazar.
A Woman Farmer.
Mrs. Minnie Eshleman Sherman, of
California, a former society girl of
Philadelphia, owns and manages a
farm of twenty-eight hundred acres,
with its vnried interest of dairying,
stock farming and fruit growing. In
her palm bordered orchards and vine
yards are grown raisin grapes, pears,
peaches, apricots, nectarines, prunes,
oranges, almonds and olives. For her
immense herds, Mrs. Sherman grows
all of her own feed, the cows In sum
mer being pastured on alfalfa, and, as
the season advances, on ensilage made
from the first crop of alfalfa; then on
corn from the silo, and later on green
rye.
In addition to the dairy which sup
plies its immense creamery, Mrs. Sher
man has a largo number of thorough
bred horses and a big herd of fine
Berkshire swine. Among the lessons
which Mrs. Sherman learned by a sad
experience was the fact that the beau,
tiful Jersey cows which have found
nourishment on sweet hill pastures In
a cool, moist sen air will not thrive on
fields of alfalfa in a warm, dry valley.
These have been replaced by the sturd
ier llolstcln-Frlcslan stock, of which
she is said to have now one of the fin
est herds in the country. Her large
barns contain all the latest devices for
the comfort of the cows and for keep
ing down all bacterial growth detri
mental to the butter.—New York Tri
bune.
A New Field For Women.
Women have Invaded another field
of industry In New York City, nnd It
behooves the "sandwich man" to look
out for his Job. She enters upon her
new vocation timidly and travels in
groups for company, perhaps for moral
support Time will probably embold
en her to stalk alone for the elusive
customer. In the shopping district six
young women may be seen any pleas
ant day, dressed in the quaint stage
garb of New England. Of course no
body in New England or anywhere
else ever dressed that way in real life.
They wear sunbonnets and spotted
shawls and mutely invite sufferers
from headache to use somebody's one
minute cure. It is a tribute to the cos
mopolitan chara.ti r of New York City
to say, and say truthfully, that since
the first t ay or two of their appear
ance they have attracted no more at
tention than does the man who carries
a 6traw hat on a pole and calls it a
Panama on his portable sign.—New
York Times.
Chiffon veiling in white, black and
vivid tints is extensively used for hat
trimming.
Pearl gray nnd fawn colors are ex
pected to be leaders in fall tints in
millinery.
A boa of Parisian design is made of
white chiffon roses, with green cen
tres, heavily spangled with strass.
For early fall wear It Is predicted
that plumes will be extensively worn
colors, black, white, beige, castor,coral,
pearl gray, cicl and maize.
Many of the summer frocks arc with
out chokers. In such cases the bodlco
is generally finished by a deep collar
of embroidered batiste or a fichu.
While the soft lawn or silk tie has ia
a great degree taken the place of the
stiff collar, a white stock with Ascot
ends is a favorite for golf or outing
wear.
An attractive skirt for a heavy linen
is cut circular with a circular flounce |
ending in a stitched band at the top i
and trimmed with three rows of white
braid around the hem.
Long black and white ostrich plumes
are very much worn this season, and
they are put on the hat to droop not
a little at one side, touching the shoul
der in some instances.
Rosettes of baby ribbon matching
the color of the gown and combined
with innumerable loops of black velvet!
ribbon of the same width represent a
new idea In garniture for thin muslin
gowns.
The eollarless gown brings the pearl
necklace into vogue to such an extent
that the supply of real pearls cannot
meet the demand. But it is the price
and not the small supply which is the
usual obstacle to obtaining such a
necklace. So the imitation pearls have
come into the breach in greater perfee-1
tlon and beauty than ever before. I
| PASSING CRANKS ALONG.
• Washington Method of Dealing With
Harmless Ones.
| The Government departments in
I Washington nre naturally very attrac-
I tive to roving cranks of the harmless
I variety. More such persons can be
j seen liere In a month than in any other
city in a year. Perhaps they find it
easier to induce somebody to listen to
them or to get some attention paid to
their schemes. At all events, the prac
tice has grown up of "passing them
along," unless they seem dangerous
enough to warrant calling a police
man. The other day a man approach
ed the private secretary to the Attor
ney-General for his legal opinion. The
secretary, in a great hurry, referred
him to Colonel Clay, the chief clerk
of the department, under whose au
thority all such weighty matters, ho
said, came.
"1 went over to the State Depart
ment one morning," began the stran
ger, addressing Colonel Clay, "and af
ter showing my system, they sent me
to the Bureau of American Republics.
I suppose they thought my system
might be tried in the South American
countries first. But when 1 outlined
my plan at the bureau they told me
to write to my Congressman and get
him to take the matter up. I did so,
but he has never answered by letter,
nnd so I have come back to Washing
ton to lay It before the Attorney-Gen
eral. I must have his opinion."
Colonel Clay told his visitor that the
practice of the department was against
giving opinions to outside parties;
that it was really a law office for the
President of the United States nnd the
heads of departments. He according
ly advised the promoter to get his sys
tem printed so that the world might
have the benefit of it. At first the vis
itor would not hear n word of that,
saying If it were printed a lot of crlt
clsm would bo provoked, while If it
could go out with the endorsement of
the Attorney-General such opposition
would be headed off. But the further
arguments of Colonel Clay prevailed,
and the manufacturer of governments
departed In great glee, looking for a
printer. Colonel Clay says that that
is always the safest and the surest
way of disposing of such guests. Of
ten the bare cost of printing exercises
n wholesome prohibitive restraint. If
It does not and the eccentric ideas see
the light of printer's ink, they can al
ways be "left for perusal." This saves
the author from personally explaining
thethe details of his mission.—N'etv
York Post.
A Veritable Nemesis.
A melodramatic story of Nemesis
quite Oriental in color, comes from
Knin, in Dalmatia. A substantial
cattle dealer, having sold a couple of
beasts for 500 crowns, stealthily gave
the money into his daughter's keep
ing for safety. On the way home two
men who knew of the transaction way
laid the pair nnd'inurdered the father,
letting the girl escape. Fleeing in
terror she at Inst took refuge in a
solitary cottage, whore she told her
story to the women, letting out also
the secret of the money. TJie hut
turned out to bo that of the murderers,
who on returning chagrined at the
barren result of their crime, were sur
prised to learn that the prize still lay
unsuspiciously within their grasp. The
girl was invited to rest for the night,
sleeping with another girl of about
her own age, the murderers intend
ing to strangle her as she slept. As
it happened, the two girls changed
places during the night, and the men,
going in complete darkness for their
fell work, strangled their own relative,
while the intended victim, paralyzed
Into silence, lay still until all wan
quiet again, nnd then managed to
make her escape through the tele i£i
the wall doing duly as a window. Tlib
murderers have been arrested.—Lou
don Pall Mall Gazette.
Tho Cat Goddess.
In old Egypt there was a burial
place for sacred cats as well an for
sacred bulls. A cemetery of cats ex
isted near Bubastis. A few years ago
Monsieur Naville found buried in the
mound the ruined temple of Bast or
Fasht, the cat goddess, who gave her
name to the city.
The foundation of Bubastis carries
us back to the period of the building
of the great Egyptian pyramids. The
Bubastis of the Egyptians is the same
as the Artemis of the Greeks, who is
generally said to be the same as the
Diana of the Romans, a goddess of
light, representing the moon. So Bast,
or Pasht was connceted with the cat
on the one hand and the inoon on the
other. Accordingly it is quite possible
that puss, when she figures as a sym
bol in the Egyptian worship, repre
sents something in astronomy and in
the calendar.
Ovid calls the eat the sister of tho
moon, and says that Pasht took the
form of a cat to avoid Typlion. Ac
cording to Plutarch, a cat placed In a
lustrum denoted the moon. It is stnted
by some writers that the "cat" was
an interclary month, added in the one
hundred and twentieth year to rectify
the calendar.
Queer Cane of a Horse's Deatli.
Farmers who are frequently at a
loss to know what strange diseases
are destroying their stock will be in
terested in the experience of William
Bickford, who lives in the town of
iUartinsburgli, Mo., whose valuable
horse, which had been running down
for the past year, died, and Bickford's
curiosity led him to investigate tho
cause. Upon opening the animal, he
found the liver enlarged to three times
Its normal size. In the stomach, which
he then proceeded to dissect, he found
a live snake fully three feet in length
and three Inches in circumference. As
soon as th.e reptile was liberated it
made a lively escape by running under
the barn floor.—New York Weekly Wit
ness.

Balloon Over an Ocean of Fire.
A Paris correspondent writes that
the aeronaut, M. Sureous, his wife, M.
Oliardon (General Secretary of the
last Paris Exhibition) and M. Blnot
(architect of the Porte Monumentale)
bad an exciting balloon trip between
liueil and Beauvais. Passing through
the clouds they were caught In a vio
lent storm, and when they finally
emerged into clear air it was at a
height of 12,000 feet, and they were
traveling over a veritable ocean of
fire, formed by vivid lightning Hash
es. The aerial voyage lauded near
Beauvais after being up nearly
hours, and the ballt m, which was cov
ered with snow, caused the greatest
wonder among the astonished inhabi
tants.
Our Highest Mountain Pea'<.
Mount Mcßlnley, with an altitude
of 20,404 feet, is the highest moun
tain in North America and forms the
central point of an enormous and sur
passingly grand mountain mass, situ
ated at tho head waters of the Susili-
Utna and Kuskokwim rivers iu Alaska.
Mount McKiulcy was known to the
Russians who settled about the head
of Cook Inlet nearly 100 years ago and
was called by them Bulsbaia—that is,
Big. The flryt American to see and
publish an account of it was a pros
pector named W. A. Dickey, who gave
the mountain Its present name.

There are in the United States, ap

tural importance. In each of these
counties/ the Agricultural Department
has a principal county correspondent,
who maintains an organization of
three assistants, each covering a spec
ified territory. Facilities are furn
ished the principal correspondent
to enable him to obtain regular re
ports from his assistants. These re
ports he tabulates at the end of each
month, supplementing the informa
tion thus obtained by his own obsei>
ration and knowledge of the situa
tion, and the consolidated report is
submitted to the statistician. Al
though there is no compensation at
tached to the position, an average of
about 90 per cent of them report*
