FEMININE CHAT."
It is not until we are in trouble that
we app1eciate true f1 iendshipi '
It' is a veiy stupid woman who can’t
tell when a man is in love with her. ' '
Black and white Swiss gowns made
up with red are particularly fetching.
The ultra swell sailor for both men
and women is very suggestive of a muf-
fin.
Lilies of the valley combined with
orchids make the fashionable bridal
bouquet.
Pink pique capes are deemed thor-
oughly au fait for warmlweather wear-
ing.
To travel now without one’s wheel is
almost as much of an oddity as to travel
without a ticket.
Too much iced tea is as bad as an in-
toxicating beverage, making the habit-
ual drinker nervous to the last degree.
Don’ t think that eve1 y man {who
stands outside a hotel with a toothpick
in his month has dined there.
Some of the new ca1 pets me in bid-
time designs of flower baskets with the
blossoms wandering over the sides.
And now the farmer’s wife is calcu-
lating on the new fur wrap the money
from the'summer boarder will buy for
her. -
The man who is so tidy that he wipes
off his boots with his pocket-handker-
chief is not altogether well balanced in
his cleanliness:
Paying a doctor’s bill is money well
spent, though one rarely feels that way
when the bill comes in. »
And now the accident list is in-
creased, owing to the propensity of
youth to fall from cherry trees.
Biycling these evenings is a joy those
who do not wheel fail to realize.
Judging by the crowds always around
the shirt waist counters, you would
. think this style of garment was the
only one known to the feminine world.
What a relief it is to see little boys
dressed by sensible mothers who do not
make guys of them by retaining long,
girlish curls after the youngsters are in
trousers.
The happiest woman is she who does
not spend half her time in endeavoring
to remove the gray hairs her age war-
rants her in possessing. '

lunch Cause for Gratitufle.
Of a certain bishop the following
anecdote is told: \Vhile presiding over
a conference, a speaker began a tirade
against the universities and education,
expressing thankfulness that he had
never been corrupted by contact with
a college. After proceeding for a few
minutes the bishop interrupted with a
question: ——
‘ Do I understand that Mr.
thankful for his ignorance?”
“Well, yes,” was the answer;
can put it that way if you like.”
“Well, all I- have to say,” said the
prelate, in sweet and musical tones,
“all I have to say is that Mr. X. has-
much to be thankful for.”

He carries every part in stock
And treats you all alike,
No trouble if of him you buy

They’ve always stood the peer,
The reason is, they’re fitted with
The famous “Pitch line gear. ”
The crack-a—jacks all ride them,
You know the reason why,
They’re just the class of riders
Who know what wheel to buy.
Prize winners are these wheels:
And ahead they’ll always be,
Just watch them in the races,
_ And for yourself you’ll see.
And when the victory’s over,
When time prize has been won,
They’ll quietly speak for themselves
And simply say, well done.
