Described.
The new English cabinet bride, Mrs.
Winston Spencer Churchill, who was
.Mies Clementine Hozier. ordered her
trousseau, it ia, suacl, only a week be-
.rore the wedding,. and a very busy time
was, therefore, spent by her for the
fele days preceding the ceremony. IIer
going -away dress, says the New Pork
Tarries, is built in semi-Directoire style
fa a new shade of light green cloth, The
high. -waisted bodice has a chemisette of
dyed lace embroidery to match the
cloth, and is finished with a deep fold-
ed sash of black satin with fringed ends.
A long row of buttons is arranged
along the fastening of the skirt at the
sidle from the waist to the hem, of
,green cloth, and the long sleeves are
ornamented in the same manner.
With this gown Mrs. Churchill wore a
very large black hat lined with velvet
and trimmed with a black ostrich plume
to fall gracefully on to the hair behind.
A chic little toilet is a short walk-
ing costume in cream flannel with black
stripes.
This has a perfectly plain skirt trim-
med wall buttons of the sante flannel.
the loose coat has a black satin turn -
ad -down collar and revers of a lovely
sl a le of pale blue tussore silk.
A number of toilets ordered from
one firm for the bride include the fol-
lowing:—
A. white sheath evening gown of chif-
e'org over soft satin, which is trimmed
,with real lace and has little baby puff
akeeves.
An Empire tea gown of fine white
vane over satin, trimmed with lace.
An afternoon robe, the Directoire
style, of white voile.
;Three evening cloaks.
+One of theee sortie -de -bats is of pink
ripilios, another is of pale green ninon,
and a third of fine white cloth.
All are similar in design, of kimona
style, and are made very long.
Another handsome costume is of the
'Louis Quinn period in fine black -faced
.cictia has a high -waisted draped skirt
sailing away from the figure, and a cost
`.smarmed with beautiful motifs of black
and gold embroideries.
The bride is an exceptionally fine
steedlewonian, and she gave her personal
attention to the details of her lingerie.

AN A WOMAN'S WORK
1>
LYDIA. E. ?INKHAM
Nature and a woman's work com-
bined have produced the grandest
xemedy for woman's ills that the
world has ever known.
.In the good. old-fashioned days of
our grandmothers they relied upon
the roots and herbs of the field to
eure disease and mitigate suffering,.
'The Indians on • our Western
Plains to -day can produce roots and
herbs for every ailment, and cure
diseases that baffle the most skilled
physicians who have spent years in
the study of drugs.
From rom the roots and herbs of the
mid Lydia E. Pinkham more than
thirty years ago gave to the women
oaf the world a remedy for their pe-
.urnll'lar ills, more potent and eflica-
ous than any combination of drub s,
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound is now recognized as the
standard remedy for woman's ills.
Mrs. J. M. Tweedale 72 Napanee
Street Toronto, Canada, writes to
i'rra..Pinkham:
"1 was a great sufferer from female
troubles, had those dreadful bea leig
clown pains, and during toy mo
moods I suffered so I had to go to
lC doetored for a long time but the doe -
Peer's treatment failed to help lie. My
'husband saw Lydia E. Pinkham.'s Vege-
table Compound advertised and got a
bottle for me. I commenced its use and
son felt better. I kept on taking it
ztntil I was well and an entirely dieter -
mut woman. I also found that Lydia E.
N'inkhann's 'Vegetable Compound made
childbirth much easier for me, I would
recommend your Vegetable Compound
Ilse every woman who is afflicted with
female troubles."
What Lydia ]3. Pinkham's `Ve ta-
ble Compound did for Mrs,Tweedale,
it will do for other sufferinz Women.

The Two Versions.
At a dinner during the recent Episco-
pal Convention at Richmond a young
lady sitting near the Bishop of London
said to him:
"Bishop, I wish you would set my
mind at rest as to the similarity or
dissimilarity between your country and
ours on one point. - Does the butterfly
because the tomato can?"
The bishop laughed heartily at this
vivacious sally. Not so a young Eng-
lishman of his party, who, after dinner,
sought his host.
"I want to know, you know," said he,
"about that joke of Miss B—'s. She
asked if the butter flew because toma-
toes could. Pray, tell me what the
point is."—Lippincott's Magazine.

FRUIT CROP REPORT.
Weather conditions have been favor-
able for the fruit crop during the month
of August. All fruit is ripening earner
than usual.
Apples Duchess apples have been
moving freely from southern Ontario in
good condition. Gravens'teins, Colverts
and Alexanders have been shipped in
small quantities and are yielding a full
crop. Indications show a full crop for
fall apples and below a medium crop for
winter apples. Quality good.
Pears---Clapps and Bartletts have .been
exported in small quantities. The pros-
pects in southern Ontario are for a med-
ium to full crop of pears. Everywhere
else a light crop is expected, except bi
British Columbia, where the prospects
show a medium crop.
Peaches Early peaches have proved a
medium crop. Yellow St. Johns are now
being harvested. Late peaches are re-
ported a light crop.
Plums are light generally, except in
British Columbia and small portions of
Ontario.
Grapes are reported a full crop.
Moore's Early and Champions ,are now
on the market.
Tomatoes are proving a medium crop.
Insects and fungus diseases are not so
prevalent as usual.
The United States crop reports show
winter apples about the same as last
year.
Peaches a full crop, and other fruits
good.
Great Britain—The prospects for tree
fruits offer less than a medium crop,
and not as good as last month.

CARE OF PETS.
Fresh Water is as Necessary as
Food.
Household pets too often have a hard
time in summer-.
A stone or earthen dish for water
should be kept at all times where the
animals can easily find it, and the water
should be put in fresh every morning
Oats require water more than many per-
sons suspect, and should have their own
dish in its regular place.
Cats are better without much meat in
hot weather, and should be kept on a
milk diet, occasionally putting in some
hominy or rice. They will eat either.
A young dog should not be allowed to
run too much in the hot suu, but must
be given plenty of exercise during the
cool of early tuorniing and at night. Ken-
nels should always stand in the shade.
To hang birds in open windows with
the sun shining full on them is cruel, for
they feel the heat severely. They, too,
should have plenty of fresh air, but no
sun until cool weather.

Ready With the Answer.
Miss Baxter, feeling the effects of a
torrid afternoon in June, was attempt-
ing to arouse the interest of her languid
class byegiving, as she supposed, an in-
teresting talk_ on the obelisk. After
speaking for half an hour she found
that her efforts were wasted. Feeling
utterly provoked, she cried: "Every word
that I have said you have let in one ear
and out.. of the other. You"—pointing
to a girl whom she noticed had been par-
ticularly inattentive throughout the en-
tire lesson—"tell me what is an obelisk."
The pupil, grasping the teacher's last
words, rose and promptly answered:
"An obelisk is something that goes in
one ear and out the other." Success

A Famous Absurdity.
Some personalities are almost water-
logged with anecdotes, and one of
these was Lord Eskgrove. To be able
to give an anecdote of Eskgrove, writes
Henry Cockburn in his "Memorials,"
with a proper imitation of his voice
and manner was a sort of fortune in
society. Sir Walter Scott was famous
for this particularly. Whenever a
lazot of persons were seen listening
in the Outer House to case who was
talking slowly, with a low, muttering
voice and a projected chin, and then
the listeners burst asunder in roars
of laughter, nobody thought of ask-
ing what the joke was, They were
sure that it was a successful imita-
tion of Esky, and this was enough.
Yet never once did he do or say any-
thing, which had the slightest claim
to be remembered for any intrinsic
merit. The value of all his words and
actions consisted in their absurdity.
* >* v As usual, then with stronger
heads than this, everything was con-
nected by his terror with republican
horrors. I heard him, in condemn-
ing a tailor to death for murdering a
soldier by stabbing him, aggravate the
offence thus: "And not only did you
murder him, whereby he was bereaved
of his life, but you did thrust oe push,
or pierce, or propel, the le-thall wea-
pon through the belly -band of his regi-
mental breeches, which were His Maj -
e •ty's 1" He had to condelr.0 two or
tax= persons to die who had broken
i to a house at Luss and assaulted
Sir James Colquhoun and others, and
robbed them of a large sum .t£ money.
He first, as was his almost constant
practice, explained the nature of the
various crimes, assault, robbery and
hamesueken—of which last ne gave
them the etymology—and he then re-
minded them that they attacked the
house and the persons within it, and
robbed themand then came tothis
climax: "All, this you did, and, God
preserve us/ joost when they were Bit-
ten doon to their dinner!"
Tea a Germicide.
A medical investigator of Boston an-
nounces that tea, that good beverage
which created such a turmoil in Boston
harbor century before last, is a rank
enemy of germs, especially typhoid
germs. He says he placed the typhoid
bacilli in cold and lukewarm tea, and at
the end of four hours they were greatly
diminished, while by the expiration of
24 hours they were completely destroy-
ed. "The value of this finding," says
the Boston Transcript, "is obvious to
military surgeons. Sterilized water may
become infected after it is placed in the
canteen. Canteens which have once been
filled withinfected water may retain
the infectious germs for some time. In
filling the canteens with tea the infec-
tion with typhoid bacilli would, after a
few hours, says a military surgeon, lee
almost nil."

The Flight of Birds.
To the average observer of the flight
Of birds everything is deceptive. To
compare the flight of a large bird with
a smaller one is especially so. The
cormorant of the sea coast seems to
be a slow flier, yet he does a mile in
one minute and ten seconds. The
honey bee seems to travel like a bul-
let, yet it takes him two minutes to
fly one mile. The humming bird does
not ily as fast as many slow -flapping
birds of ungainly bulk. The quail
appears to get away more rapidly
than does the mallard, but he does
not do it.

Gypsies Showmen of the East.
Nothing identifies a gypsy with cer-
tainty except his language. The true
gypsy speaks Romany, and nobody
but a gypsy ever speaks it. But there
are other matters of great moment.
In the Orient, sieve making for
country farmers is emtirely in the
hands of the gypsies, and they make
wooden spoons, bowls and such like
utensils. All the common people in
Syria, Egypt and parts of Persia are
tattooed. The gypsies are the experts,
and do most of it, even among the
Begouins.
The gypsies aro the showmen of the
East, where there are no cireuses,.
theatres or concert halls. The gypsies
fill their place. If people wish to buy
wild animals or snakes in Egypt they
go to the gypsies, who either have or
catch them.
Arab gypsies from Syria - mad Egypt
are frequently seen all over Europe,
They are easily. recognized by their
shows, music and tattoo marks, They
are found all over the United States
and Canada, even in. Winnipe .-- Froin

Forty- five billion tons of coal, in-

Western North America, will be avail-
able as soon as railroad extensiarls
now in progress tapping the Crow's
Nest Pass region are completed, go-
ing far toward averting the predicted
fuel famine.
This vast storehouse, says the Tech-
nical World Magazine, is located in
a rectangle 150 x 200 miles in extent,
comprising 30,000 square miles, or
19,200,000 acres.
To put this tract in direct communi-
cation with the outside world two op-
posing elzgineering parties are stren-
uously at work. D. C. Corbin, presi-
dent of the Spokane International
Railroad, has secured a charter from
the provisional government of British
Columbia for a railroad connecting
with the Canadian Pacific, east of
Michel, B.C., and extending la a
southerly direction 14 miles. Con-
struction gangs are now in the field
rushing work. This line will open
coal lands in 17 sections, a total of
10,800 acres, for which the company
holds crown lands from the provis-
ional government of British Cdlumbia.

To Keep Cut Flowers Fresh.
Those who wish to make their cut
flowers last the longest, so that they
can get the most pleasure out of them,
should be careful to give them a little
extra attention in order to prevent their
losing their beauty too soon. This is
especially desirable during the winter
where flowers have to be bought at a
high price from a florist, or some pa-
tient home -growers has spent much
time and care in bringing her plants in-
to bloom.
The simplest way to keep blossoms
fresh: See that the ends of the stems
are cut with a sharp knife in a clean,
even cut, and to clip off a little more
from the ends of each just before giving
the flowers fresh water every morning.
Do not let the flowers be too crowded
in the vase and keep them if possible
where they will not be in direct sun-
shine, nor too near the heat from the
register or radiator.
At night set the vase containing the
flowers in a vessel of water and place
in a cool place. Some persons take the
flowers from the vase and put in bowls
of water where the steins will be cover-
ed nearly to the blossom, and cover with
newspapers and set out on the window
sill, unless it should be cold enough to
freeze the blossoms, when they are plac-
ed inside a cool place.
Caught in Time.
"A woman," observes the Atchison
Globe, "is very quick. We heard one
talking this morning and she was telling
a story about a very large woman. There
was a veery large woman in the party,
and, although the woman who was tell-
ing the story intended to say, "A great,
big, fat woman,' she caught herself in
time, and said, `A great big fine looking
woman."

LITTLE OLD NEW YORK.
Larger in Population Than Sixteen Dif-.
ferent States and Territories..
Some one who is apt at figures has
shown that New York city today is
larger in population than sixteen differ-
ent States and Territories, and further
that within a radius of twenty miles are
living over 10,000,000 people.
The improved methods of transporta-
tion, which are fast widening the limits
of New York's business energy, will soon
embrace a radius of fifty miles, within
which are located 2,304 different towns
and, cities whose total population, with
that of Greater New York, is equal to
fully one-fifth of the population of the
United States.
When it is realized that the perman-
ent increase in population of New York
last year was about 400,000, a city the
size of Cleveland, Ohio, some idea of the
tremendous growth of the city can be
appreciated. One of the assurances of a
continued and permanent growth is to
be found in the 50,000 marriages that
take place every year.
Besides this permanent increase, New
York is entertaining an average of over
150,000 transient visitors every day, and
at some seasons, when the hotel accom-
modations are taxed to their utmost,
fully 300,000 people are chronicled in
their home papers as "spending a few
days in New York on pleasure and busi-
ness."—National Magazine,

Extinct Lemurs.
Interest in the wonderful, and in sev-
eral cases gigantic, extinct lemurs of
Madagascar has been revived, says
Knowledge, by the publication in the
Transactions of the Zoological Society
of a lavishly illustrated memoir on a
magnificent series of skulls and other
remains obtained by H. F. Standing. In
certain marshes in Madagascar such
remains occur in profusion and. in a
marvellous state of preservation; and
it seemed evident that the animals to
which they pertained survived till a
comparatively recent date, perchance to
the time of the seventeenth century
navigators. Whereas the largest of the
modern lemurs --locally known as sifakas
—do not much exceed three feet in
height, with a skull of something like
the same number of inches in length,
oertain of their extinct relatives were
positive giants, one in particular haying
a skull quite a foot long. Another, it is
suggested, may have been aquatic' in its
habits.
