Loop is a Dangerous Bird With Which to Battle. The Icon. or great northern diver, lace a powerful bird. The following in- stsnce of one of them_.,eonouering a man happened s’iew years ago: A young Mlcmac lndinn, living at Grand lake. N. 8.. wanted to get the skin of one of these beautiful birds to prn’scnt to his mistress on her birth- do One day the youth who was an ad- ept at imitating the peculiar sobbing cry oi the loop. succeeded in calling a bird within shooting distance. His shot, however. failed to kill outright, and the bird. although so severely wounded that it could neither swl nor dive. yet retained sufficient III and strength to remain upright in the water. The boy thinking that his game did not need another shot. swam out to retrieve it, but when he appraoched near enough to seize the bird it sud- denly made a dash at him. sending its head and neck out with a spring like an arrow from n how. It was only by a quick duck oi his head that the lndian succeeded in evading the blow. iic swam about the loan several times, attempting to dash in and seize him by the neck, but the wary bird suc- ceeded in falling each effort by con- tinually facing him and longing out with his powerful neck. The indlsn then swept up to within a few feet of the bird and. diving un- der him with considerable skill, caught him by the legs. He carried him um der. and. although the bird struggled fiercely. managed to retain his hold. But when they both rose to the sut- fscc again a battle royal began, the lndian seeking to carry his prize ashore and the bird attempting to re- gain hls freedom. The bird, howev- er. was too much for his foe and be- fore the Indian had covered a yard on his shore bound course stabbed him with a vicious blow from his beak fill. on the naked chest. The effect of the blow was almost instantaneously fatal. for the beak penetrated close to the lndlan's heart. -Youth‘s Companion. WOMEN’S EYES........ are the severest judges n paper-hanger has.

The men are still out and say they will not go to work un- till their emands are complied with. On the at or hand the merchant tail- ors claim that the strikers arc show- ing signs of weakening and express the belief that the men will give in the latter part of the week. At a meeting of the merchant tailors a number of members of the association reported that their workmen who went out with the union have been to them and offered to return to work at the old-rate of wages. The bosses could not take them back. however. becausc , the workmen wanted them to sign an agreement. As this would be contra- ry to the rules of the Merchant Tall- ors' Assmiatlon, the employers had to decline the offer of their services.

Oxford gray cheviot is the material chosen for this stylish skirt. the scal- loped edges of which are bound with bias velvet and ornamented with sev- eral rows of machine stitching. This skirt represents the newest of the ad- vance full styles. it consists of two circular portions Joined in a seem at the center back and titted with single hip darts without fullness of any kind at the top. 'The ripples which fall gracefully lu hack and on the sides are caused by the stylish shaping. The right front laps over the left and may be cut with scalloped or straight edges. the new 'Iter of scallop being given on the pattern with perforated line for the straight shaping. The closing is made invisibly where the right side laps over the left. or buttons and button-holes may be used as shown in small illustration. The mode is especially well adapted to wide width goods. cheviot, venetian and broadcloth, camel's hair, serge, tweed and erepon being leading fabrics for fall wear. A strictly tailor llnleh of machine stitching may complete the right edge of skirt. or applique embroidery braid- ing. passementerle. bands of cloth. vel- vet or braid may be effectively employ- ed to decorate the side of skirt. To make this skirt to the medium else will require three and one-half yards of material forty-four inches wide or two and three-punter yards of fifty-four inches wide. The pattern. No. 7156. is cut to aim for a 22, 24, 28, 28 and 30~lnch waist measure. OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO SII‘I’IIEL COUPON. : The holderof an. coupon is ensues : tonne pattern, snyel se.
