The Captivating Modes for the Summer Season %= %=

They Win Enthusiastic Approval from Those With . Long Purses and a Desire to Spend.

e - RESS is well-nigh distractr\ ing in its endless variety m of choice materials and ex--1 : quisite trimmings. Verily, = / sweet as the flowers in T May are the ravishing musJins and lovely cottons that are prepared in such lavish profusion.

Cottons as fine as foulard, mercerjsed to resemble silk, are strewn with flowers and hearts, which rival spots and polka dots. Light blue, pink, or pale green cottons for young girls are printed with wreaths, sprays, hearts and cable-chains of flowers. ‘Black, navy, brown, or prune cottons for matrons have the most original designs, such as showers of irregular spots with rising suns or- crescent moons; stars, zig-zag flashes of lightning, Empire designs, and the Greek key pattern are all in favor, and if ever it were possible to resist the dire temptation of purchasing a cotton frock, I feel sure one must succumb to it this season.

It would be out of the question to describe the immense variety of muslins, *“a jour,” or open-worked fabrics. Swiss embroidered robes are in white, eream or beige; the white musling with ecru embroidery, or the ecru with white embroidery. - Some colored embroideries are seen, and there is a whole range of muslins and other fabrics inlet with the new diamona-shaped pieces of lace in cream <valenciennes, or black Chantilly. White muslin dresses inlet with black Chantilly will make charming frocks to be worn over glate silks in pink, lemon, green, or blue. 5

Very soft pastel shades are worn, but we have also the cruder and more vivid poppy reds, blues and greens. A useful material is ‘sheeny black taffeta, covered with tiny spots, hair-lines and various designs, large or small, according to the taste of the wearer. Louisine bids fair to become the classical silk, as voile is the classical summer lainage. Shepherd's plaid and all tiny checks are seen in the new taffeta; black and red, black

The shaped flounce is in favor especially for tweeds. Pelerine flounces are much used, but they are cut up at intervals with a plain piece, and ithe front breadth is left plain. Fans of silk are inserted into many of the newest skirts; this mode allows of renovating old skirts, as it is so easy to have fans of silk inlet all round; or the front breadth may be detached and framed with trimming, and allowed to open above the knece. Sleeves are a problem which every sensible woman must be left to solve for herself. Excepting elbow sleeves, the two most popular are the bellshapéd sleeve and the Czarina, which widens in a big puff from elbow to avrist. If these are in the least exaggerated, they make a small or stout woman appear ridiculous. Of the two, the bell-shape is' the most practical—it can be worn with or without any undersleeve. A very pretty sleeve, mostly seem on the three-quarter coats, is a modification of the bell sleeve, reaching a little below the elbow. It is slit up at the back, and filled in with full flounces of cream lace. Macaroons on either side serve to fasten strings of beads with festoon across the lace. - Yet another sleeve is one we wore a few years ago. Gauged at the top, it flows out fully to beneath the elbow, where it is met by a long gauntlet cuff pointed on the hand. Very deep cape collars alternate with fichus to form the bodice decoration. - Boleros are worn, but they have undergone a change; the bolero proper is rounded and trimmed with tassels or tabs. They are either sleeveless or have an epaulette; others have a pouched front and a short riding basque at the back, with the sleeves that are generally bellshaped, long, or three-quarter length. Detachable basques are made to the Russizan blouses, and to bodices generally. Sacque boleros are quite a feature just nmow; they are slashed or cut into square or round tabs. Lace spencers, or coatlets of guipure, old lace, Chantilly and Luxeuil lace, are the last cri of fashion. Sacque spencers or boleros aré made as smart as can be, and worn over lace or silk blouses.

Cloth of gold serves as a foundation for some of these boleros; it is also used for the new belts. These are much the same as the corselet belt, only the downward point is deeper, the shape more curved, and the lines more graceful than of yore. Capes and mantlets are not deemed smart, but they are often indispensa-

wide and flat, and worn, not as a .protection for the throat, but just as an outdoor finish to a dress. Scarves of printed liberty chiffon, made very wide and long, serve the same purpose.. The new Matador veil is' most becoming, and so simple. It is of chenille spotted tulle, lined with white chiffon. Many hats have the large Victoria brim which dips in front, and at the back, where it has a large bow of black velvet with flowing ends which reach the waist. Shepherdess hats with strings of velvet crossed on the crown, and carelessly tied under one ear, will be worn with muslin frocks, and scarves or fichus. There is a demand for real lace mittens, and the unbecomingness of certain shades of red, the royal color, is naturally giving rise to heated arguments.

~ Almond green is trimmed with goiden brown, brown is trimmed with blue, and all materials generally are adorned with chenille or velvet of a lighter shade. ' Straps of tartan velvet are in vogue for trimming pearl gray, golden brown or royal blue gowns.

TBE SONDAY SCHOOL. Lesson in the International Series for Jume 1, 1902—Paul : at Lystra, % THE LESSON TEXT. : (Acts 14:8-19.) : 8. And there gat a certain man at Liystra, impotent in his feet, being a cripple from his mother’'s womb, who never had walked. 9. The same heard Paul speak; who steadfastly behodlding him, and perceiving that ne had faith to be healed, 10. Said with a loud voice, Stand upright on thy feet. And he leaped ana walked. 11. And when the people saw what Paul had done, they lifted up their voices, saying, in the speech of Lycaonia: The gods are come down to us in the likeness of men. 12. And they called Barnabas, Jupiter; and Paul, Mercurius, because he was the chief speaker. : 13. Then the preist of Jupiter, which'wasg before their city, brought oxen and garelands unto the gates, and would have done sacrifice with the people. 14. Which when the apostles, Barnabas and Paul, heard of, they rent their clothes, and ran in among the peoplecrying out, - 15. And -saying: Sirs, why do ye these things? We also are men of like passions with you, and preach unto you that ye should turn from these vanities unto the living God, which made Heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all things that are therein. 16. Who in times past suffered all nations to walk in their own ways. 17. Nevertheless He left not Himself without witness, in that He did good, and gave us rain from Heaven, and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness.

18. And with these sayings scarce restrained they the people, that they had not dore sacrifice unto them. : 19. And there came thither certain Jews from Antioch and Iconium, who persuaded the people, and, having stoned Paul, drew l}im‘out of the city, supposing Le had been cead.

Missionary Experiences.—The winning of converts by Paul and Barnabas set others against them, so that they were obliged to go elsewhere. Had they not been driven out, their natural desire would have been to remain so long as they were successful. But the missionaries were greatly needed in other places. The Divided Multitude. — Tconium was on the border between Phrygia and Lycaonia, and was the commercial center of quite a large region. The method of work there was the same that had been followed in Antioch, and the results were also similar. “The multitude” had a merely intellectual interest in the matter for the most part. Lystra was about 18 miles from Iconium, but the cities were in different districts.

The Missionaries Deified.—The cripple of Lystra was probably begging in some public place where Paul spoke. The miracle was similar to that wrought by Peter at the gate of the temple (3:2-8), and the effect on the multitude was similar. The “speech of Lycaonia” was a dialect of the language of the Gauls, with which some Greek words were blended. Paul and Barnabas did not understand it. Zeus, whom the Romans called- Jupiter, was the king of the Greek gods; Hermes, called Mercury in Latin, was their messenger. There was a tradition that the gods had paid a visit to that region in ancient times, and the people thought a similar event had happened now. Garlands were always placed on the necks of beasts just as they were sacrificed. It would shock a Jew te witness pagan sacrifices; and to re ceive divine honors would be even more horrible. Rending the garments was a token of horror, which would be understood even by those who did not practice it. The occasion gave opportunity for a forceful address against idolatry and in exaltation of the true God. Although they succeeded with difficulty in persuading the multitude that they were men, their popularity continued great for a time. : Paul Stoned.—The Jews from Antioch who made trouble for Paul may have been traveling into the interior on business. Probably no one wouid make so long a journey simply to Zollow up the Christians. The stoning of Paul was by a mob rather than by the systematic and thorough method of the Jews. He could hardJy have escaped alive from a Jewish stoning. His injuries must have been painful rather than severe, but it would be some time before he could be really himself. Return to Antioch.—Derbe was the most remote point reached on this journey. The missionaries seem not to have been disturbed there, nor as they stopped on their way back to organize their disciples. Probably they did little public preaching. Their journey lasted a little less than four years, and covered about 650 miles. .

PRACTIQAL SUGGESTIONS. When one is filled with the Holy Spirit the power of the Gospel is made manifest.

The power of the Gospel is made evident wherever it awakens faith in those who hear it.

The power of the Gospel is not limited, but is sufficient’ to restore those who are impectent through sin. The Gospel brings good tidings of a living God who never leaves Himself without witness to us of His love. . i MEN IN PUBLIC LIFE. President Roosevelt does not believe in interfering with the pleasures of his children, but at a recent cabinet meeting the youthful Kermit stalked bodly into the cabinet-room on stilts. “I guess that’s about enough for you,” said the president as he arose and carried the youngster out, enjoining him never to interrupt again.

Ethan Allen Hitchcock, secretary of the interior; James Wilson, secretary of agriculture, and B. F. Galloway, chief of the bureau of plant industry, will receive the degree of LL. D. at the Missouri state university at the June commencement and will also deliver addresses. Prof. Henry Van Dyke, of Princeton university, will preach the ‘baccalaureate sermon.

Senator Hanna daily receives a large number of requests for the autograph of the late President McKinley. Secretary Cortelyou is also overwhelmed with the same kind of applications. Although both Senator Hanna and Mr. Cortelyou were very close to the president, neither possessed at the time of the latter’s death many autographs, and these have been givenaway.

The illustrations show ground plan and side elevation for a hog barn that ought to meet ordinary needs. I have drawn the plan to make 12 pens. It will require only a little more money than putting in six, and it will be found, I think, very advantageous. The pens are eight by ten feet, with a six-foot passage between. A door opens from each pen into the lot. The pen adjacent to the boiler can be connected with the boiler, and will give sufficient heat to wash hogs in the coldest weather. I have also shown a place for feed bins and stairway (upper left hand corner), and the farmer can use the space for two horse stalls,

The floors should be of Portland cement, while the division walls should be of brick, one thickness, and plastered with Portland cement. The fronts of the pens connected with the alleyway I would advise being made T LD e ] ] PAsSSAGE WAy 2= CoAL .I- x —r GROUND PLAN OF HOG BARN. of wire netting, as it will give a good view of the hogs, and be much more cleanly than wood, enabling him at all times thoroughly to clean and disinfect his entire barn. The division walls between the stalls should be four feet high. All doors shown in the side elevation, together with the windows opening into the stalls, will give plenty of sunlight and ventilation. The lots should run 80 feet in length, which by ten feet, the width of the pens, will make a lot 80 by 10 feet. This should be paved with brick, laid on well-packed stone; and laying bricks so as to lack about one-eighth of an inch of touching each other, and filling the cracks with cement, the pavement when set will stand the hardest freeze. By this method the bricks can be laid flat instead of on end, and your correspondent need have no fear of injury to his pigs, as it will wear the feet off and cause them to stand upright on their toes, instead, of at an angle, However, I would not advise animals ’being kept longer than four or five weeks at a time on the brick floor, as they can then be transferred into outer lots.

This barn is designed for farrowing quarters, and with that end in view I advise “fenders” made from one-inch iron pipe placed entirely around the etall on each side, by using “T’s,” which can be procured from any plumber, having three connections which will enable you to place the pipe gix inches from the ground and six inches from the sides of the stall This will afford ample protection for the litter and prevent mashing of same by the sow.—Country Gentleman.

FORCING DAIRY COWS. DBy No Other Method C_nn the Milk- ~ Producing Capacity of Heifers Be Increased, Tt is an interesting question and one worthy of some thought, as to how far we may force a cow when seeking for a big yield of milk and butter, and whether such forcing is ultimately desirable. Many are prejudiced against forcing at all, and this prejudice is not without foundation,as the premature death of some cows that have been forced up to the limit testifies. There is mno doubt that this high feeding process, for the purpose of getting a big milk and butter yield, weakens the constitution of the cow, and sooner or later must tell on her general health. Now the question arises: How far may we go with the forcing process? All realize that a certain amount of forcing is beneficial, in that this is the only means of developing the organs of the cow and in turn making her calves better stock, for breed is, after all, only a matter of generations of feed and care, and it was by forcing that a cow was brought, through several generations, from a yield of three pounds of butter to a yield of 15. But what is the limit? It is not hard to remember when a horse was fast that could go at a 2:40 gait, but now we are getting mighty close to the two-minute mark, and cannot say that the limit has yet been reached. So it seems reasonable to suppose that the limit of milk production in a cow has not yet been ~reached. It must be admitted that ~many cows, those possessing weak lconstitutions, are hurt by overfeeding (forcing), yet it is only by foreing that we can hope to increase the l milk producing capacity of a cow,and ‘increase the value of the breed.— Barnum’s Midland Farmer.

Horses Not Out of Date, i The horse has not yet gone out of date, notwithstanding the prophecies of a “horseless age.” :Cable and electric ‘cars, bicycle zmd/ automobiles, portable engines and steam plows, are not yet able to eliminate him from the affairs of men. Great Britain, in connection with the Boer war, paid one of the largest bills for horse supplies, it is said, ever paid in the history of the world. The United States has lately carried on with foreign nations an unprecedented trade in mules and horses, the total export of the government for the first eight months of the current fiscal year amounting to more than s9,ooo,ooo,ooo.—Agricultural Epitomist. ‘

Beau Brummel paid Clyde Fitch only $l,OOO, while from his late plays he is averaging as high as $50,000 in royalties alone. Amelia Karle, who has been a member of Rogers Brothers’ chorus, will marry a wealthy western ranch owner in the fall, and bid good-by to the stage. Mrs. Langtry has signed a contract with Charles Frohman to appear in this country next season. She will probably be seen in Paul XKester’s “Mademoiselle Mars.”

Ethel Knight Mollison, who is to become Richard Mansfield’s leading lady next season, was a member of a Philadedphia stock company two years ago, playing minor roles.

JENTH o )1 BLESSHES Health will come with all its blessings to those who know the way, and it is mainly a question of right-living, with all the term implies, but the efforts which strengthen the system, the games which refresh and the foods which nourish are important, each in a way, while it is also advantageous to have knowledge of the best methods of promoting freedom from unsanitary conditions. To assist nature, when nature needs assistance, it is all important that the medicinal agents used should be of the best quality and of knogxpvalue, and the onée remedy which acts most beneficially and pleasantly, as a laxative, is—Symip of Figs—manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co. : : ‘ With a proper understanding of the fact that many physical ills are of a transient char~ acter and yield promptly to the gentle action of Syrup of Figs, gladness and eomfort eome to the heart, and if one wounld remove the torpor and strain and congestion attendant upon a eonstipated condition of the system, take Syrup of Figs and enjoy freedem from the aches and pains, the colds and headaches and the depression due to inactivity of the bowels. In case of any organic trouble it is well to consult a competent physician, but when a laxative is required remember that the most permanently gratifying results will follow personal cooperation with the beneficial effects of Syrup of Figs. It is for sale by all reliable druggists. Price fifty cents per bottle. . : The excellence of Syrup of Figs comes from the beneficial effects of the plants used in the -combination and also from the method of manufacture which ensures that perfe¢t purity and uniformity of product essential in a perfect family laxative. All the members of the family from the youngest to the most advanced in years may use it whenever a laxative is needed and share alike in its beneficial effects. We do not claim that Syrup of Figs is the enly remedy of known value, but it possesses this great advantage over all other laxatives that it acts gently and pleasantly without disturbing natural functions, in any way, as it is free from every objectionable quality or substance.

He knew all the old war songs and coliege choruses. Nowadays Senator Clark shows his lové of music by being a devotee of the opera. He knows and appreciates good music and is familiar with all the great musical compositions. While he can thus enjoy the classical works, he also delights in the simple ballads, and he can sing nearly all the popular songs of the day. .

: BURNING HEAD. Star City, Ark., May 26th.—A very remarkable case has just occurred here. Mr. W. H. McFalls has been suffering severely for two years with an ailment that puzzled the doctors and everybody. The trouble seemed to be all in his head, which had a burning sensation all the time.

Sometimes this burning pain in the head would be worse than at other times, but it never left him.

At last he tried a new remedy called Dodd’s Kidney Pills, and was agreeably surprised to find that the burning gradually disappeared. An attack of La Grippe has laid him up for the last few weeks, but Dodd’s Kidney Pills have banished his old trouble entirely. His son George used a few of the Pills which 'his father did not need and they have done so much good that he says he would not take ten centsa pill for the few he still has left.
