The cheapest of these aro by no means cheap, but their rare bsauty and the enduring quality of the work lavished »pon them scems to moke up for the exâ€" | travagance. | Very _ llitle â€" ribbos, howeve®, is used upoa these charmâ€" ing "sots," which are imported, of lcourne. And this is generaliy in the shape of necessary draw | strings, Just as the FPrench bridal gown is amipler than that of_ any other country, so is the French bride‘s traveling dress less fussy. A trayâ€" eling gown just confectel by _ a French maker for. an _ American brile is of an enchanting modesty. Fashioned of pale brown cloth, it is relleved by white moire and _ a loose silk braid, The moire forms lo0se silk braid. The moire forms the swall collar and cuffs of the tall coat, whichk has flowing sleeves and is frogged at the front with the braid. Bronzo buttons, with touchâ€" e ol white enamel end these as well as the rows of braid upon the full skirt, whoso frovt panel is formed by pleats. The fetching litâ€" the turban which will be worn with this tollette is of white panama, with brown and _ white ostrich plumos. 4 In thoe game trousseau is a trayâ€" eling dust coat even more portenâ€" tious, and suggestive of _ endless comfort. This is of thin brown novâ€" elty silk, with maize lights and a waterproof{ finish, some button orâ€" naments of gimp and metal giving a «dressy touch at the front. The model of this coat is very loose, as are all of the summer dust coats as yet seen, ‘and « a novel point was the cutting of the fronts and a little double shoulder cape in one, A brown and white rough straw sailor was the headpriece for this coat. It was trimmed with two white gulls, flat across the top, over a wide bant of brown velvet, which ran under the side brims. At a recent wedding attended by tho best part of the smart world the bride wore a gown of white panno velvet embroidered in wheat ears, with tiny crystal beads. At a swagger function to come. the bridesmalds‘ tollettes will consist of tailâ€"coats in pale gray brocade, with plain gray satin skirts flounced at the knees with saffron lace. Donâ€" ble flounces of this compose the dreswy undersieeves, and the broad brim hate will bo of gray! silk with wreaths of piok roses and gray tulle etrings. What the brite‘s mother _ will wear to the church wedding must bo decided ty her age and appearâ€" ance. Gray is much liked by older women, but the wellâ€"preserved mamâ€" ma may gown herself in the tinta aml texture her daughter might wear, if they aro merely . shaped with an eye to the lines of middle age. Apple green panne, Irish lace and diamonds and emeralds comâ€" posed the toilette of a handsome mother _ at a recent smart wedâ€" ding. Still _ another swagger church function sgshowed the mother in a gown of pale blue moire and duchesse, whilo the bridesmaids‘ cosâ€" tumes were in pompadour combinaâ€" tions of pink and ecru. * shall be high at the throat, though long gloves may permit . elbow sleeves. For the ptacing of the ring the glove ie never entirely remoyâ€" ed ; the opening is merely| cut deepâ€" er so that the hand may be slipped out and the glove insiantly resumâ€" ed. The lace edged handkerchiel is carried in the back of the prayerâ€" book, in the belt or at the front of the dress. to get rich quick At first these poisonous products of fatigue were re%arded as animal alkaâ€" loids similar to plant poisons like strychâ€" nine and bromine. But Dr. Weichart succeeded in isolating from the muscles of wearied animals a specific toxin, which when injected in small doses into animals gradually produced immunity and formed an antitoxin, In large doses the toxin produced all the symptoms of fntiiue, followed by death. A simple method of producing an antitoxin has been described in a recent German patâ€" ent. Liebig mentions a case in which the flesh of a roebuck which had struggled violently after being caught in a snare gave rise to symptoms of poisoning. Simâ€" ilar cases are recorded by Gautier, inâ€" cluding one in which pigs were fatally poisoned through being fed upon the flesh of a horse that find died during its struggles when being broken in. _ When albumen is gently heated for about ten hours with a chemical agent like dilute nitric acid it is broken down into various products, one of which yields all the physiological effects of fatigue. In continuing the heating for a long period or on boiling the mass this toxic substance is destroyed, and among the products of its decomposition is one that neutralizes its action. This new substance may be sernted from the other Kroducts of decomposition and from the accompanying mineral salts. When injected into the body it is stated to act as an antidote to the toxin ?l fatigue, preventing its injurious efâ€" ects. HistorIcal Fragment.

Prof. Angelo Mosso, of Turin, found in his experiments that the illâ€" ness caused by overâ€"fatigue was due to the absorption of certain compounds into the blood, and that these substances when injected into other animals proâ€" duced the same symptoms.

Simply because they realize that a healing remedy like Catarrhozone, which air carries direct to the sore, inflamed membranes is bound to cure every form of Catarrh, all types of bronchitis and throat trouble, and will almost instantly stamp out coughs, colds, sneezing and bronchial deatness. The reputation of Catarrhozone has grown by leaps and bounds. It reaches the diseased spot, It cures epeedily.

Catarrhozone Cures Quickly Thousands Cured Daily Failure is Impossible Catarrhal IIIs Having complied with these condiâ€" tions the applicant is sent to a school of instruction. There he settles down for & course of training in a barracks where he receives his board and lodgâ€" ing free of cost, but no compensation. His life there is similar to that of a recruit in the army. He spends three or four hours a day in military drill to smarten up his npj»enrance, to make him stand erect, to develop his muscles, to teach him discipline and how to work with others, when help is necesâ€" sary. Three or four hours a day are spent in the study of simple scientific principles to develop his mind . and judlflnent, and give him the mental as well as the muscular training necessary to qualify him for duty. Each sueâ€" ceeding week the course of instruction is advanced, and the candidate finall learns something of law and the pené hflu‘.for its fl:l:lt’mu. After a whi assigned at a police slatipn or a police court where he comes in London policemen are appointed by competition. Any young man between 21 and 27 years of age, who brings cerâ€" tificates of "sober habits," "honest chiracter," "good temper" and "feâ€" spectable connections and _ associates" from fivg householders who have known him personally for five years, may apâ€" ply for appointment on the force. He must "stand clear 5 feet 9 inches withâ€" out shoes or stockings," must be "free from bodily complaint, of strong conâ€" étitution, good muscular development and careful as to personal cleanliness." He must also be "generally intelligent, read well, write legibly and have a fair education." }* wat ¢ man knows where to look for him when hel& advice or instruction is needed, ‘There are 30 superintendents, 569 inâ€" spectors, 2480 sergeants and 16,240 conâ€" stables, making a total of neariy 20,000 men, so thoroughly organized that they are an almost perfect human mechanâ€" ism, the greatest of its kind that was ever known, and their personal assoâ€" ciation with the 7,000,000 people th:{ are employed to serve is far more intiâ€" mate than that of any other police force in the world. The metrgpolitan polize district of London extends over a l5â€"mile radius from Charing Cross and includes an area of 639.42 square miles, which is laid out like a gigantic chess board inâ€" to 64 grand divisions and 8,000 subâ€" divisions. ‘The organization is so perâ€" feet that the Commissioner of Police at Scotland Yard may know at any moment the exact place where any patrolman could be found, and a serâ€" geant or an inspector or a !cllol\!v pat{ol- re?ect, it makes him reckless and inâ€" different to shame. Whereas, if he is allowed to sober up, and is released without publicit{, he congratulates himâ€" relf uporn "a jolly narrow squeak," and f)rom'-es hamself that he will never get nto such a scra{:e again. _ ‘The entire police policy is based uK:n the effecâ€" tiveness of "the friendly hand." HOW ORGANIZED. THE LONDON POLICE Are Praised For the Arrests They This, of course, does not refer to penal offences, to burglary, larceny, murder or similar crimes, but to petty offences, such as assaults and disorâ€" derly conduct which make up the greater part of the business of the flm courts of our cities. When the don policeman finds two men quarâ€" relling he endeavors to reconcile them. When he finds a drunken man he takes him home; when he catches a boy pilâ€" fering he talks to him kindly and cauâ€" tions him not to do it again; aiter the second offence he takes him to one of the many private institutions for the reformation of the young, and thus proâ€" tects the urchin from the stigma that a police court always leaves. THE FRIEND OF THE PEOPLE. ‘Thus the policeman is the friend rather than the foe of the people on his beat, and they know that he is irying to help them up rather than keep them down. That accounts, in a great deâ€" gree, for the respect that is shown the constables in London, and for the inâ€" fluence they exert. Nowhere else in the world is police authority obeyed so promptly and perfectly as in London, and the criminal statistics very seldom show any cases of "resisting an officer," which is so frequent an offence in this country, Nor do you often hear of a Tondon policeman being killed or inâ€" jured in the performance of his duty. When a drunken man, particularly if he has the appearance of a gentleman, is brought in by a constable who can not find out where he lives, he is inâ€" variably turnel over to the station physiciar, and no charge is preferred against him until he has slept off the effects of the alcohol, _ Then, if he makes a reasonable explanation, he is permitted to depart in peace without sufllering the disgrace of having his name written upon the book. The Lonâ€" don authorities exm:tin that this policy is more effective than any form of punâ€" ishment. If a young man is hauled up in a poli¢e court, or if he even gets his name upon the police register, it hardens his heart, he loses his selfâ€" Do Not Make. Wonderful Results Are Obtained The policy of the Police Department of London is unique and differs from that of other cities in one very important particular,. _ A patroilman, or a â€" "conâ€" stable," as they officially call the memâ€" bers of the rank and file, are comâ€" mended for the arresis they do not make, The constable who brings in the smallest number of prisoners, who apâ€" pears most infrequently as a prosecutâ€" ing witness in a police court, receives the highest credit. ‘The officer who can settle difficulties on his beat outside the station, and does not trouble the police judges is considered the most capable anfie efficient in the performâ€" ance of his duty. The policeman is strictly enjoined by the regulations to remember at all times that he has mno personal interest to serve in making an arrest or securing a conviction of the offender. He is rcâ€" quired to praciise a selfâ€"control which would not be expacted of any other 00â€" cupation. He knows that he will be praised if he can settle a case out of court, and if it should ever appear that he has improperiy attempted to influâ€" ence the judgment of a magistrate against the prisoner he knows that he will be severely dealt with. The same consideration is enjoined upon officers in charge of ploice staâ€" tions. No prisoner is treated as guilty; they act on the theory that sympathy and kindness will cure crime quicker than severity. _ x s locand ul t Cake KINDNESS VERSUS FOR by the English System.

REQUIREMENTsS AND PAY, During the three to six months which a candidate spends in the police school of instruction many and perhaps most of his competitors are dropped by the way for lack of mental capacity or lack of judgment or for other reasons. In 1907 only 22 per cent, of the applicants passed the ordeal successfully and were appointed to the force,. Every possible test that can be devised is applied to try their tempers, their pationce, their judgment and other characteristics, submitted to the Magisirate how _ a competent constable conducts himself, The text book most carefully studied is entitled "Duty flints for Constables and Bection Sergeants." It is a comâ€" pact little pocket volume of 50 pages, containing a comprehensive epitome of information upon everything that . a policeman ought to know. . The book contains the location of every fire staâ€" tion, hospital, shelter _ for _ homeless, every coroner, physician, _ ambulance station, infirmary, etc., and the last three pages are filled with "hints" to an officer on duty. He is admonished never to lose his temper, to answer every question civilly, never to argue with any person, never to express an opinion unless he is asked, to state all facts in favor of as well as against an offender. In this way are the policemen of Lonâ€" don educated, and when they join the force they expect to stay with it for life. The pay is absurdly small, beginâ€" ning at $7.50 a week, with an increase every six months until a total of $12.50 a week is reached. But a member of the service may be retired on . twoâ€" thirds pay for disability or for age when he passes G62, and if he is killed or dies from the effects of injuries reâ€" ceived on duty his widow and minor children receive pensions.â€"W, E.

Unele Sam is concerned about the wilâ€" ful waste of wood which seems prodesâ€" tined to create woful want. Millions of cords of wood is wasted every year in the forest and on the farm because this wood is not suitable for the various meâ€" chanical uses for which wood is employâ€" ed. There are, however, numerous means of disposing of this waste. Aside from tanning and paper making, which are chemical industries that have been esâ€" tablished for hundreds of years, there are other industrial uses of more recent origin which are of agricaltural importâ€" ance. The crude products from distillation are chiefly four: Gases, tar and oils, charcoal and acids. Methy] aleobol, aceâ€" tates, _ acetone, . charcoal, turpentine, wood, oil and oxalic acid are directly or indirectly obtained on _a _ commercial seale from woods, and the yield is govâ€" erned largely by specific gravity, weight and kind of wood as well as by the way in which the manufacturing prosess is earried on.â€"â€"From the Chicago Tribune. WORKING THE PCBLO (Toronto Globe.) Canadians are not enamored of war or warlike preparations, but while they live in the world of men they recoflflu that they cannot live as they would, but as they must. Building warships and conâ€" stituting battalions are looked upon as somewhat ironic provisions for peace, but at the present moment a demounstraâ€" tion that the British race, wherever it may be found, is ready to assume any task rather than see the one indispensâ€" able guarantee of its security, unity, and perpetuity threatened or imperilled, must have a sobering and rationalizing effect. The time has come for Canada to de clare herself definitely and resolutely, and to back her declarations with her Eeientific treatment of vagrancy is not to be expected in the immediate future, but a good beginning has been made, It is now suggested, says Amerâ€" ican Medicine, that laws be passed by the New York Legislature _ whereby tramps, drunkards, and idlers without means of suport, be confined in farm colonies. _ Unfortunately, the underlyâ€" ini idea is that these human wreeks are able to work for their keep and should be forced to labor, As a matter of fact they are sick men, some of them chronically «tarved and incurably neuâ€" rasthenic. That is the reason they are idlersâ€"not from choice. Denmark has solved the problem scientifically in selfâ€" supporting institutions. ‘The beggar or tramp is arested and taken to the setâ€" tlement, where he becomes really a patient, who receives careful study, is appropriately treated, and given only such work as he is able to do. Quite a porcentage recover and are released after positions are found for them. Some prefer to remain and their earnâ€" ings accumulate; the incurables must reâ€" main. The systcm has ended mendicancy and vagabondage and must be adopted here not only to restore wrecks to use fulness, but as a matter of economy. The railroads alone lose $25,000,000 yearly through stealing or accidents due to tramps. _ Counting the crimes committed and the other losses, it would be cheaper to spend a hundred millions a year confining and curing idlers, than to allow the present orgie of crime to continue, though as a matâ€" ter of fact the colonies would become gelfâ€"supporting. _ Nothing can be done as long as public opinion holds to the delusion that idlers are simply vicious men needing punishment, a delusion as false as the mediaeval theory that the insane must be s#courged and loaded with chains.â€"Philadelphia Record. . , $11.00 round trip from Suspension Brtdf via Lebich Valley R.

Important among these are destructive distillation, recovery of turpentine, resin, paper pulp, preparation of alcohols and manufacture of acids. _ These are growing industries because of a steadily increasing demand for wood alcohol, aceâ€" tates, acetone, turpentine, charcoal, etc., which are utilized in other industries.
