The spider’s favorite maxim la, -learn to labor and to wait The summer girl is putting on her •oat of tan and freckles. It’s either a deluge or a drought to make the farmer unhappy. Why not sell it “aeroplane T" It would be easier to pronounce. * Vacationers regret that the game of coming back was ever Invented. Almost any small boy’s ambition at this season is to be a pearl diver. In hot weather, put off all the things you don’t have to do to another day. This is good weather for a revival of the Greek costume of toga and sandals. —, Confiscation of their automobiiles Would deter reckless motorists from scorcblng. The summer season is trying to make good the deficit of heat piled up last winter. Yale has given up basket ball, thus heading off a challenge from the Wellesley girls. It thkes as much time for a watermelon as for a man to become thoroughly “cooled off.” Strange as it may seem at first thought, no grape seed was ever found In a vermiform appendix. Father's pocketbook agrees with the textile men in the belief that there is ruin in the hobble skirt. Uneasy lies the head that has no hair, especially when there are flies in the Immediate vicinity. One advantage of being a pitcher for the Detroit team is that you don’t have to pitch to Ty Cobb. The Philadelphia Inquirer calls the theft of an umbrella- a “white steal." That feller has a guilty conscience. The millionaire who paid $48,000 for a pair of ancient andirons is plainly started in a way to have a hot old time. Now the warning has gone out against soap as a carrier of germs. This time the crusade makes a clean sweep. One of the obstacles in the way of the anti-kissing crusade is that most girls would rather be son-kissed than sun-kissed. * The man who threatens to let his whiskers grow if his favorite candidate is not elected now has the center of the stage. If, as a fashion expert says, the skirts will be tighter next fall, there will be a great Increase in the use of the shoe horn, fy— — * *" According to a Boston doctor the American nation is becoming flatfooted. And some are being caught red-handed, too. Superstitious persons who look upon thirteen as an unlucky number overlook the fact that there were thirteen stars in the original flag. For every man killed in flying a dozen die boating and swimming. It is In the number who survive that aviation makes a poor showing. The hay fever season is ushered in with the dog dayß, and both are abominable, each, however, in its own despicable way. Those misguided people who have been wishing for an old-fashioned summer will confer a favor on this community by promptly unwishing it. Attendance at big league baseball parks is said to have fallen off since laßt year. Even baseball finds it hard to compete with a political circus. Doctor in Boston tells us that the American nation is becoming flatfooted. Probably due to the vast •mount of gum-shoe work in politics. A convention hall in Atlantic Cits was picked up and carried away by a recent cyclone. Usually, a convention hall is a magnet for all wandering air currents. We fain would rise in our righteous indignation and smite the feminine practice of wearing male hOkiery, but we hesitate for fear of being called a rubber-neck. A hug and.a kiss were the rewardr-. given to the man who rescued a girl from drowning at New Rochelle. Up to date. - ii-r Many a man who yearns to be a., boy on the farm again would kick like a mule if he were naked to do ♦Ha chores. v v ra . ■■ A man convicted of deceiving bia wife about money has been aent to jail in Loa Angeles.

WITHOUT THE COLLAR WAIBTB THAT ARE COMFORTABLE - 7 ———AND BECOMING. , Many Styles to Select From, and Wide Variety Admits of Choice That Will Suit the Individual Btyle. The collarless waist makes a superb setting for a pretty head, and as the season advances one sees more and more of such comfortable and becoming styles. Any sort of a stock on a very warm day gives a warm look, and so the women who can wear the throat-line, or semi-decollete thing, and wear It with an extra advantage to her appearance, is in her element. For her less blessed sister there are wonderful coquetries in high collars, the Robespierre, an immensely high turnover or tucked muslin attached to a silk stock and cravat, being the favorite. For the very thin throat, and those Injured by the wings of time, there are also collar guimpes of flesh colored tulle, these giving quite a look of a low cut at a distance white hiding such physical defects as exist. Very plain bodice lines are affected by many stylish women who know that their figures look better without fullness and the patchy effect of much trimming, and the illustration demonstrates a mpdel of this sort for £he home sewer who has the same needs. The waist is a scant double-breasted affair, with kimono shoulder cut, the Ijw armhole and long tight sleeves. A flat collar and “rabat" of lace prettily finish the neck, but the long sleeves also permit the Robespierre collar, and

If one is in doubt as to how to make this detail it can be found in any good shop In materials of all degrees of simplicity and elegance. Lavender popllnette, a fabric half silk and half cotton, is the texture of the waist and its attendant skirt, but the model is particularly convenient for a separate waist, and it can be made in all the solid fabrics used. Thp lines are a little too severe for lace or net or

SWEETNESS THAT ALL ADMIRE

Favorite Old Recipe for Pot Pourri Guaranteed to Give the Best Results. A favorite old recipe for pot pourri Is made up thus: The proportions may be lessened or Increased as desired: Take one-half pound of common Balt, one-fourth of saltpetre, onefourth ounce of storax, half a dozen cloves, avh&ndful of dried bay leaves, a handful of dried lavender flowers. Mix these well to form the basis of the pot pourri, and it will last for years. Rose petals and the leaves or flowers of other fragrant plants gathered on dry days may be added to the jar from u»e to time, or a few drops of the essential oil of perfume flowers, such as oil of geranium, roses, etc!, may be added to make up a delicate bouquet perfume. If liked also powdered benzoin —do not confuse with benzine —chips of sandalwood, cinnamon, orrisroot —indeed, almost any pleasing aromatic plant, dried, may be mixed in. The lid of the rose jar may be lifted from time to time to allow the fragrance to exhale Into the room and should some time afterward be replaced to preserve the perfume.

Fashion's Fancies

chiffon, as these fabrics would not give the tailored stamp needed. Many very dressy summer walsta are mhde up entirely without linings, but this easy-going method does not supply the best results, as some protection is always needed at the shoulders of the bodice, if not all the way down. A thin lawn or silk guimpe, made separately and worn under the waist, will solve the problem of keeping the waist clean, however, while a high separate blouse in a thin silk would be even better. The underblouses can be bought ready made for a dollar and a half or two dollars, and they require little material and less bother when they are made at home. An Inside belt is required for a good set of a fitted waist, whether it is part of a dress or not.

A little lemon juice upon retiring at night, a good facial bath in buttermilk allowed to remain on the skin for at least ten minutes, the Inner rind of a cucumber rubbed over the entire face at least once a day—these are the weapons with which the girl who freckles or tans is fighting off her enemies so that she may be viewed with envy by her less fortunate sisters and with admiration by the brothers of these same sisters when warm weather and lingerie frocks come to abide with us for a while.

those who want quietude to obtain it within bounds of their own domains. Instead of seeking it elsewhere. How is it to be made? In Germany what is called the inclosed “sun parlor” is *° an excellent resource. An outdoor sitting room is constructed on any wide balcony or veranda, and fitted with glass screens. These are adjusted so that the sitting room may be used all the year round, and even in eammc' and more particularly at the Beaslde, are a protection against too strong breezes. The screens, it should be mentioned, are made so as to fold backward and forward, and should havfr green shades. Japanese lanterns serve for a decoration and for lighting at night, and die big leaved plants make a cool background. In an inclosed rest room grass thatting is suitable and cool on the floor, and long cushioned lounges and armchairs, including a rocking chair, invite, Quq to repose. For breakfast, afternoon tea and the picnic luncheon such a room li an ideal one, as well as for * the rest cure.

There are little details connected with dresses that, will be worn for summer that mark Uiem as new models, but the general style is much the same as seen previously. No collars will be worn, but the fcleeves are quite long, reaching to the wrists. The long sleeve* is not "Sew, for it has been worn for some time, but the outlines have changed. Formerly „the sleeve was very tight, trat now it. is full, and even baggy, at the elbow. Often It ends in a broad cuff, with perhaps an increased bagginess where they Join.

Child’s Fear of the Dark.

If mothers notice that the brains of their little ones conjure up uncanny sights and thoughts from the shadows of -a room more or less dark, let the light burn brightly. To force a child to become accustomed to the darkness Is a grave error, if its nervous system is so organized that this forcing is productive of a fright. The nervous system of a child Is a very susceptible organization and the deleterious impressions made upon It will often make their Influence felt throughout its whole afterlife. If the child asks for a light under such circumstances do not refuse it.

Really Had Best of It.

John Burroughs Is well known as one df the foremost of nature writers In this country. Some time ago he visited his brother, Eden Burroughs, who lives inythe Catskills, at a place called Hobart. The two brothers went fox hunting together. The honor of the hunt came to Eden, who shot the only fox. It so happened that foxskins were worth five dollars at that time, and-fhi successful Nimrod took much pride in telling how he got the better of the sage of Slabsides. Later, in boasting to a few friends about it In the presence of his brother, John, he was interrupted by, “You have bragged about that fox hunt long enough. You shot the fox, sold the skin and got five dollars. I wrote a little account of the hunt, and got $75 from the magazine which published it. So there you are!”

Carrying It Too Far.

"Scientific management, like any other good thing, may be carried to excess.” The speaker was R. Marriott Thompson, the San Francisco scientific management expert. He continued, says the New York tribune: “We scientific managers mustn’t go as far as Hussler went. “Hussler was the proprietor of a tremendous factory where scientific management had reduced the motions of every hand from 800 to 17. Hussler attended a very fashionable wedding one day, a wedding where the ceremony was performed by a bishop, assisted by a '“dean and a canon, and in the most impressive part of the writ Hussler, overcome by his scientific management ideas, rushed up to the altar and pushed the bishop and canon rudely back, ■*’ ‘Here, boys,’ he said, ‘one’s quite enough for a little Job like this.’ ”

A -wise doctor tries to give nature Its best chance by saving the little strength of thb already exhausted' patient, and building up wasted energy with simple but powerful nourishment * , J “Fiv© years ago,” writes a doctor "I commenced to use Postum in my own family instead of coffee.” (It’s a well-known fact that tea is Just as injurious as coffee because it contains caffeine, the same drug found in coffee.) “I was so well pleased with the results that I had two grocers place it in stock, guaranteeing its sale. “I then commenced to recommend it to my patients in plaoe of coffee, as % nutritious beverage. The consequence bfc every store in town is now selling it, as it has become a household necessity in many homes. * “I'm sure I prescribe Postum as often as any one remedy in the Materia Medica —in almost every case of indigestion and nervousness I treat, and with the best results. “When I once introduce it into A family, it is quite sure to remain. I shall continue to übc it and prescribe it in families where I practice. “In convaleseenoe from pneumonia, typhoid fever and other cases I give it as a liquid, easily absorbed diet.

ICE BOX OF CONCRETE

ADVANTAGES IN THE USE OP THAT MATERIAL., Especially Valuable on the Farm and Comparatively Cheap tp \ Construct—Some Good Points Noted in 'lts Favor. Many farmers we using concrete for the -making of walks, fence posts and stock tanks, but this article describes a new use for this valuable material —the construction of refrigerators from.concrete mixture. In building this refrigerator forms of dressed plank are used. Make the joints of the forms as tight as possible so as to leave a smooth surface on the finished work. Make the forms of the size you require your refrigerator, but

Interior Arrangement.

the wall should never Jie less than three inches thick. For doors, a frame 2x4 set and imbedded in the concrete walls, with a tight fitting door of plank, three double, jams with a fac* ing of felt or rubber, forms almost an air-tight box. A wood partition separates the icebox from the storage closet. Through this wall is an oval opening Ix 2 feet. Through this dhe cold air passes, while the water from the melting ice never reaches the storage closet hut is drawn through an open tap through the bottom of the ice box. One thing in favor of this refrigerator is the ice box on the floor. No lifting is required to put in heavy cakes of Ice as is the case when the ice-box is in the top of the refrigerator. The smooth, concrete walls are easy to keep clean, and do not absorb odors like wood, nor rust out like tin. About one-half the Ice will be saved with these refrigerators, and

The Complete Box.

water from dampness does not form and drop on contents, as with other kinds. Safe rollers or large casters can be molded into the floor of the refrigerator, making “the moving of the box much easier. When forming the wall, brackets should be molded in where shelving Is wanted. The interior should be coated with a pure cement mixture and worked to a finished/surface. Shelving can be placed to suit the builder, but should not cross the cold air opening. Concrete refrigerators are much cheaper than the factory kind and give better service when properly constructed. —Exchange.

Milk Rarebit.

Grate hne pound of cheese, add to this Qne-half cup of cream or milk. One small teaspoonful of mustard, onehalf teaspoonful of salt and a pinch of cayenne; stir this in a chafing dish or double boiler until the cheese melts, add a tablespoonful of butter and two eggs beaten light; as soon as the eggs are well stirred in the lights should be turned off, as the rarebit Is ready and the eggs should not be cooked for any length of time. Constant stirring is absolutely necessary during the whole process. Serve immediately on crisp toast.

Oatmeal Lemonade.

Lemon oatmeal drink is one of which invalids rarely tire. Mix a tablespoon of fine oatmeal into a smooth paste with cold water; then pour over It three pints of boiling water, stirring well all the time; place In a saucepan and boil until the quantity is reduced to two pints. Set It aside to cool, and then pour the clear gruel away from the sediment. Add to this the juice of a lemon and a small quantity of powdered sugar. This may be served hot or cold, and it is good either way.

Blisterless Mustard Plaster.

Mix the mustard with the white of an egg, using no water or other ingredients. This plaster will draw, but will not produce a blister, even on the skin of an infant, no matter how long it Is allowed to remain on. To Relieve Hoarseness. Pour in a common glass tumbler pure glycerine to tbe s depth of an inch, add one tablespoon lemon juice and five drops of camphor, take teaspoonful as needed- *

Took Slot Machine at Its Word.

A Kansas City woman recently took her two small daughters to make their first visit to her husband’s people, living in a small Kansas town. Naturally she was anxious to make as favorable an tmpression-as So the two little people, on going on an errand to the depot, were cautioned to be on their very best behavior. To the mother’s surprise, they returned vigorously chewing gum. As they had no money, she asked them where they got it. •‘Oh,** explained the older one, “It said on the slot machine, ‘Ask the agent for pennies,’ so we did.”

Autocratic Assertions.

“Are you a servant of the people?" asked the constituent. “Yes,” replied Senator Sorghum. “Only it should be observed that a really first-class servant may come pretty nearly being a boss.” There are lots of funny things to be seen in this world, and among them is a fat woman sitting on a little piano stool.
