J For a girl, at least, the linen summer suit is by far the' nattiest tailormade, in her wardrobe. Linen and youth seem to belong to each other and the smart lines of this year's coat are especially youthful. Many of the best suits of tho kind1 are plain, but for a touch of embroidery here and there to give originality to their style, One finds even among inexpensive gowns models which are never exact ly duplicated. Especially is this true among markdowns from higher prices.

Alcohol Is a Preservative. Alcohol is recognized the world over as the proper, most efficient and wholesome . preservative of medicinal compounds, and while some pournalist3 try to alarm the world by the cry that patent 'medicines contain more alcohol than beer," they neglect to state that proprietary medicines are taken in doses from a teaspoonful to a tablespoonful, while beer Is a beverage that is consumed in quantities from a glass to several quarts a day, Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound contains only IS per cent alcohol, simply enough to preserve tht root and herbs from which it is made, and may be relied upon by every woman in the land, as a reliable, honest and sure remedy for the Ills peculiar to her sex. s

HE CALMLY SHOT DOWN HIS RIVAL Senator Davis of Arkansas Has a Narrow Escape From Death. VICTIM AN INDIANA MAP' N. P. WILLIS IS SLAIN IN ARKAN SAS COURT DY THE HUSBANT OF HIS DIVORCED WIFE IS SENSATION. Little Rock, Ark., July 28. -Shoot ing through the clothing of Senato: Jeff Davis, his counsel in a case be ing heard in the chambers of Circui. Judge Guy Fulk, yesterday afternoon W. Y. Ellis, of Pine Bluff, fired inti the body of Nathaniel Parker Willis of Indianapolis, Ind. Willis died a few minutes later ir the arms of Sheriff B. F. Roberts. Stampede Followed, A stampede followed of the spectators who crowded the Courtroom ol Judge R. J. Lea, where a sensations? criminal assault case was being tried and some narrow escapes from injury resulted. Senator Davis made a hasty and not very decorous exit following the shooting, leaving his hat and coat and canf behind, Tho case in Court is the sequel to a sensational divorce suit two years ago, in which Willis's wife secured e separation from him. She later was married to Ellis and moved to Arkansas. Willis brought a habeas corpus proceeding in the Circuit Court here for the privilege of seeing his children, who had been left in the custody of the mother. An order had been made giving him possession of the girl, aged 11 years, for 10 days upon the filing of a proper bond. Another phase of the case was being heard in the Chambers Court when the shooting took place. Without Warning. Ellis, without warning, rose from a position in the rear of the Judge and fired a shot at Willis that went wild. Senator Davis pleaded with hira to desist, and Judge Fulk endeavored to wrench the pistol from the assassin's grasp, but Ellis succeeded in bringing his gun again to bear on Willis, whose mother was hanging on his neck trying to protect him, and the bullet, passing through the coat of Senator Davis, buried itself In the breast of Willis close to the heart. Ellis then gave up his weapon and surrendered. Late last night the police, fearing that violence might be done to Ellis, secretly placed him in an automobile and fled with him to a mysterious destination. GOING TO 8EATTLE?
