It is safe to say that ono woman out of Ivory four ono sees on the train nears a travelling cent of some kind, Tho modern Lrttveiliig eont is the grown-up daughter of the linen duster, and is' not only n, touch hand- somer garment, but more durable, The Vault duster ht'cnuio a centupled rag after 0 fete hours, while the new coats are as fresh et, the end of the journey as at the begtinniug, One of the advantages el wearing them is that a very informal and cornier - table gown may bo worn underneath. Taffeta is .perhaps the most popular fabric, with pongee, in natural tones, black and colors, mohair, cravenette, and waterproof silk as other favor- ites. Thu waterproof silk In shades of nav • blue,cl' ve y.t L Hudg wi metal are e often trimmed' with pipings of white , or gay Meld silk, and are most practical and serviceable gar- ments. They are worn for raincoats Motor wraps and .evening coats, as well as for travelling. Following the fashions in spreading skirts, all the'new dust and travelling coats are voluminous in build. They flare at the betel and have reoniy sleeves, us- ually confined in nn easy wristband. A very pretty travelling coat of natural pongee has u yoke across the back piped with bright yeti. The fullness is confined at the waist by a buttoned strap, this, too, showing the edge of red, 'Pile front of the coat, which falls to the ankles, is loose and .buttons well to the left side. Tho turndown collar, button flap, and gauntlet cuffs are piped with red. The coats are often made three- quarters length. Ono of black toile- to had pipings of bright plaid in which green wits the dominant color. This had a shawl yoke With points in the front and hack and epaulette points on the shoulders. The tartan pipings appeared on all the 'Telds, and the large buttons and slashed pockets were also piped with Lite color. A half -belt held ilio fullness in the back. A GOWN OF DARK BLml. An effective and quaint costume in dark blue wus worn lately by a so- ciety lady. This is a deep sapphire blue taffeta, the skirt being laid in box plaits. These plaits are about three inches wide and shallow, and are stitched at their edges so ae to form a flat hip yoke some eight inch- es Jeep all around. The plaits ter- minale at the front on each side of u narrate front panel, the panel also blue, ancl giving a sort of old-time effect. The skirt is circular and just touches the floor. 'The bodice has a bouffent and wide effect at the shoulder line, but tapers down to the waist, Tabs of blue silk, the lends embroidered in white, extend from the round blue rick yoke well down the front, These tabs are longer in the center than at the sides. The elbow sleeves are quite wide, and ore shirred several tunes through the center in a vertical line from the shoulders to the elbow, where they end in a flaring frill e5'ect, being edged by, fine black sills braid, and finished by inner sleeves of Dino white mull and lace. There is a little guinpe or white mull and lace, and the blue taffeta bodice overlapping it is finished by very wide black silk braid. \Nidi this frock was worn a round black citrate chapeau of moder- ate size, the brim encircled by a wreath of pink roses and buds. WiiIAT TO WEAR. For the cool summer gown pongee is all the vogue. It not only comps in the natural color, but dyed in a variety of attractive shades. It may bo bought plain or showing a dainty silk figure or clot. White pongee is the pony latest thing not only for the shirt -waist suit, but for' the instep -length skirt and coat costume. '1'o make an old waist like now, and ,to add a smart touch to a new waist, tho shops aro selling the most attractive of 1830 yokes, They aro made with collar and yoke in one piece. They button up the back, rind are hold in, glade with small pins. These yokes aro seen i.n a tempting variety. They are made of coarse linen with the eyelet em- broidery', end then again they come in the sheerest of lawn with exqui- site lace motifs as their decoration. They are made shirred, plaited, or plain, and a number arc trimmed with narrow lace insertion as well as the separate lace designs. As a substitute for the lace insertion, lace beading run with ribbon may bo used, ora very tatroy vine of col- ored f - orecsilk embroidery. These 183030 se- parate yokes are a welcome charge from the deep lace collars. THE L ACL1I BELT. The remarkable ventures and suc- cosees that the devisers fund makers of bolts have accomplished lately would seem to have left noth- ing fresh to come for the require monts of the modistic wold. But there is a now girdle that Is abso- lutely beautiful and will piny a very prominent part as the edit/net of the muslin gowns of the future. It Is Meade of lace exquisitely ellen- ed and delicately bound, to give it a sufficiency, of substance. Any kind of lace: ie useful for the purpose, but the coarse Cluny, the Irish croehet, and tho Russian kinds are perhaps Moro sliitabl.e than the other's for the ptu'p0s°e, The belt may yor;y 'rlafely be made with a series of three points at thb back, which always loops pretty, narrowing downward to the front, where a lace buckle supplies the finishing tench. But there le aft infinite variety sef schemes that may be follOwodwhen lace belts aro being Made, "You May ,you have spent hours over a etleglo Their "lies; and sOhietinIci Aye," "'Theft yeller'e a Po01,?" • "lie; I'm an hegier.'!

Eat No Meat, and Are Strong Mentally and Physically. SOME COSTLY GARDENS MILLIONS SPENT ON =Bpi na ;ENGLAND. It Is Estimated That Over $10,- 000,000 10;000,000 Goes for Labor Alone, It has been said that. there aro n r+ toy of1 C b e > the� Kingdom n In United 7 1l d m who spend more every year on their gnrdens than would pay the official salaries of the entire Cabinet; and, extravagant as the etele>uent may appear, it is well within the limits of truth says Loudon Tit -lilts. • f`urtllor than this, there are, on the best authority, more than 5,000 "seats of the mighty,," or at least of tho rich, the gardons of which cost their owners anything almost from $2,000 a year upwards into the thousands; while there are as runny more which demand between $1,000 and $2,500 a year for their maihhtenenee. On thee° 30,000 Bri- tish gardens an annual stun estimat- ed at over $10,000,000 is spent for labor alone; turd another $5,000,000 at least goes in the purchase or seeds, s rants • t t • s , .tad tenure the ,i and t general upkeep of the gardens anti glues: houses. 1'o this must in added the tens of thousands of gardens of the wall -to- do classes on which sums ranging Nem $50 to perhaps 8.,00 a ,your aro silent, and the hundreds or thou- sands of more modest gardens, each, however, a source of pride and plens- nre to its owner, 'which emit from a few cents to a few dollars a year. It is difficult. and, perhaps, invi- dious to say which are the most costly gardens In Creat Britain; hat among then are certainly thoi'e of Trentham hall, Welbeck Abbey, Lord Jlute's gnrdens nt ('.urdilT Castle, the world-famous gardens of (Chatsworth, and those of the P.oth ehiltls, on which gold has boo°;, lavished like water. Ono gets sou impressive idea of the extent of such gardens as these when we hear 1ht the kitchen -garde' alone at Welbeck covers thirty acres, that the houses in which peaches, apricot, and nectarines are grown stretch for o quarter of a mile, and that to stuck (hent cost as much as $00,000. When a millionaire sots his heart on making himself a lordly pleasure garden we may he sure that he reeks little of the cost, Not long ago a very rich man in the North of England discovered that one section of his gardens was ren- dered useless through expOsut'e to the keen east twine. This was not to be tolerated, said the great man, and to keep the eastern blasts from trespassing he planted thousands of Scotch and Norweginn lir trees to act its it screen, paying ns smelt as $25 for 'individual trees, This little whim cost him nearly 4100,000, but lie considered himself amply reward- ed by seeing his wilderness turned into a. Partulise of flowers. In gardens such as these it is quite usual to employ as many as seventy or eighty met and boss, so that a Cabinet Minister;,s yearly salary may easily go in wages alone. Tt is said that there tine 900 country houses in Great Britain each of which employs a staff of over fifty mer, of these, 200 employ between eighty and 150, While sixty of them employ over 200; and the large majority of all thele male ne•vguts aro gardeners of ono kind or another. In addition to the cost of labor there aro repairs and alterations of houses. furnaces to be fed, walls built for fruit -growing, nets for pro- tection, tools to buy and replace, and—often the most costs?' item of all—seeds and plants to purchase, Baron Schroder is credited with having spent $200,000 on his col- lection of orchids, and Sir Trevor Lawrence with an expenditure of $150,000. Mr. Joseph Chamberlain has thir- teen glass -houses containing, roughly 0,000 Plants, many of thorn of great value and gathered from almost every part of the earth where orchids are to be found. The plants are ar- ranged in different Houses according to the 11100 of flowering, so that the succession of exquisite flowers never fails the whole year round. Each plant beard its number as well as its name, and it is said that Ml', Cham- berlain knows every ono of his floral pets. The Japanese have taught Euro- peans and Americans a lesson and quenched in some degree the con- ceit of the Caucasian in his superior capacity to do all things. Even in the matter of diet. our long -cherish- ed theory that tho energy and vital- ity of the tvh]le man is largely duo to the amount of animal food con- sumed, must undergo revision. Thu Japanese aro allowed to be among the very strongest. people on the earth. They nee strong mental- ly end physically, and yet practical- ly they eat no meat frt all. 'Che diet which enables 1110111 to develop such hardy frames olid such well- balanced and keen bruins, consists almost wholly of rice, steamed or boiled, while the better -to-do add to this Spartan fare nett, eggs, vege- tables and fruit. 'Fog beverages, they use weak tea without sugar or milk, and pure writes', alcohol stimulants being but rarely indulged in. Wa- ter is imbibed, in what we should consider prodigious qun.ntil.les—to an Irluglislunnu, indeed, the drinking of so much water would be regarded as Madness. The average Japanese in- diviciunl swallows about a gallon daily in divided doses*. Tho •Tapaneso recognize the 1100e - ficial effect of flushing, the system through the medium of the kichteys, and they also cleanse the exte1'iaof their bodies to an extent undreamed bf in Europe or in Anle'ion. Another—and perhaps this is the usage on which the Japanese lay the greatest stress—is that deep, habitu- al, forcible inhalation of fresh air as an essential for the acquisition of strength, and this method is sedu- lously praetisod until it becomes a part of their nature. The Japanese have proved that . a frugal manner of living is consistent with great bossily strength—indeed, is perhaps more so that the most diet of the white man, As to the tenter - drinking habit which is so distinctive a custom with them, it is probably an aid to keeping the system free from blood imfnu'itios and might bo followed with advantage in Europe- en countries, to a Inc greater extent. 1 me Hydro- pathy 3' dr - than is at present the cast, ,y o ath serfs ser t be the P y and e c 1 0 seem o sheet anchors of the Japanese train- ing regiment, apcl judging from re- sults, have been eminently satislne- tory.

Soldier, Aged One Sundred a:,,1 Three, Commits S'>.icicle. "Olt! Let mo die. I have lived long enough." in a stake of collapse, feebly mut- tering this piteous appeal to the 111111e, a centenarian committed stli- cicl° in Festinoig workhouse, Irmg- lond, after a life of adventure, ro- mance and latterly of pitiable de- pression. The story told to the lferionetli- shire coroner at the inquest at the workhouse was that the old man, James Burns, whose ug0 was stated to be 1011, had given a fellow-innlato sixpence and persuaded him to pur- chase a knife for ]tint, his own hav- ing; been taken away on his admis- sion into the workhouse, Early on Friday morning, when the nurse visted the ward site found Burns dying from wounds in the throat, which had been inflicted with this new knife, and to 111.1' muttered his appeal to be left alone. Death took place shortly afterwards. The jury found that the man committed suicide while temporarily insane. Burns wee an Ieisnutn who until about 1850 served iu the Navy. Then he earned his living as a haw- ker, and when netuly an octogeneriau he met a young woman, half a cen- tury his junior, whom he married. The couple settle down in Port- madoc about ten years, ago with their three children, but in 1002 the wife and children left him for Ches- ter, Beres was seemingly averse to the removal, and quite courage- ously entered the workhouse. Lat- terly however, lie had longed great- ly for his family and had become depressed. 4 "Your husband Seems to have an exalted opinion of you," remarked the bride's aun't, "He says you are bis right hand." "Yes," rejoined the young wife, with a sigh; "but he's one of those men who never let their right hand ]snow what their left hand does!" A BACK LICK. Settled the Case With Her. Many great discoveries have been made by accident and things bettor than gold mines have been found in this way, for example when even the accidental discovery that coffee is the real cause of one's sickness proves of most tremendous value because it locates the cause and the person has then a chance to get well, "For over 25 years" says a Mis- souri woman "I suffered untold agon- ies in my stomach and even the best physicians disagreed as to the cause without giving me any permanent help, different ones saying it was gastritis, indigestion, neuralgia, etc„ so I dragged along from year to year, always half sick, until finally I gave up all hopes of ever being well again. "When taking dinner with a friend one day site said she had a new drink which turned out to be Pos- tern and I liked it so well I told her I thought t would stop coffee for awhile eo an d use it which did. "So for three months we had Pos- tern in place of coffee without ever having one of my old spells, but was always healthy and vigorous in- stead, "Husband kept saying ho was con- vinced 1 t was coffee that caused those spells, but even then I wouldn't believe it until ono day we got out of Poston and as we lived two miles from town, I thought to use the coffee wo had in the house, "The result of a week's use of coffee again was that S had another terrible spell or agony and distress Proving that it was the coffee aucl' nothing else.

He would have bean right, too; only these butchers had refused to butcher the Japanese They had come ntcay from itusela inotead, and that not as single spies, but in battalions, Here in England, trio breath of freedom fresh in their nostrils, they were quite willing to talk about it all. "Ilaif of us," Said ono of the young; leen, "had passports, and had received leave to go on payment of a fair price, the money failing into the hands of the police or the Fled Cross runes—T ata not sure which. The other half had to run the gauntlet of the frontier guards, and left two of their number in hospital at Memel suffering from bullet wounds in a non -vital part.

"Then there were others who pro- cured forged passports on payment of L2—ore for the police and ono for the forger. Again n few escaped by way of the Black or the Baltic Sea.

Tha main thing, however, was to have money with which to bribe the police. in Kharkov 12 men were shot for preaching sedition and persuading their neighbors that it was a crime to light against the Japanese.
