"figl-WAR MADE SOLDIER FORGET FEAR Foraged Hen Laid an Egg In Piper' Pocket While on Forced March Pullet Wat Quite Angry. .... (,'rimi Youth's Cotnpnnlon If mi old soldier should tell me.' rcninrked tho veteran, "that ho wasn't nervous before his first battle, I sup poso I should hnvo to believe him, but should regard him as a freak of na ture. There aren't many who could sny as much. I know I wns scared through and through, and besides that, I was scared for fenr somebody clso would find It out. I was nineteen, nnd I've often thought that If It hadn't been for a little thing that happened to tllstrnct my mind while we wero on tho march, my legs never would have carried mo to tho front, but In quite tho other direction. "We were In camp, and Just petting ready to have our dinner, when ordcni camo for us to hurry forward and Join a brigade that was likely to engngo tho enemy at uny minute. So we had to gobble down a cold snack and start. Having my first battle loom up before riie midden like that, I couldn't eat much of nnythlng, and not having had a civilized meal, I didn't hnvo much stomach for fighting. At first I was looking round for a haystack to scoot for and hide In, but after a time I be gan to get Interested In the lefthand .overcoat pocket of the man In front of me, a chap named Piper. "It looked to mo as If there wap something very much alive In that pocket. Every now and then Piper would" clap his hand over It, as If ho was afraid the critter would get out, and I could hear stifled noises from the depths of the pocket that mado mo suspicious. The lieutenant heard them, too, for twlco ho turned round and looked flerco enough to ent us. "By and by, when Piper was off IiIh guard, tho thing poked Us head out tfar enough to Bcreech, 'Cut! cu !' Piper ho squelched tho second 'cut out It In two, you might say; but tho lieutenant .heard something, and ho looked round and shouted: 'Silence in the ranks there!' "Tho men near Piper snickered, tut nothing more happened till tho order camo down tho lino to shift our guns to tho right shoulder. Then, of roiirse, Piper had to uso both handq, and tho minute ho let go of his pocket out scrnmbold as mad a pullet as you ever saw; and when she'd flopped onto the ground sho scurried away, screeching, 'Cut! cut! cah-dah-cut!''at the top of her lungs. Well, the cap tain couldn't help hearing that, and naturally ho looked back to seo what tho row was, and when he saw what had happened he sung out at the top of his voice: "Corporal Davis, take three men nnd bring back that deserter!' "That made everybody feel middling cheerful, but thoso who know where tho chicken hnd come from got a real good Inugh when Piper put his hand Into his pocket and pulled out a new laid egg. "Honestly, I forgot all about being nfrald after that." Big Enough Hog for Him. To a curloslty-seeker, who desirei a permit to pass tho lines tovisit tin field of Bull Run after tho first battlo Lincoln made tho following reply: "A man In Cortland county raised ,n porker of such unusual slzo that .strangers went out of their way to see It. One of thorn mot tho old gentle tman, and Inquired about tho animal. " 'Wall. yeB,' tho old fellow said, I've got such a critter, ml'ty big 'un; ,but I guess I'll hnvo to charge you about a shlllln' for lookln' at 'Im.' "Tho stranger looked at tho old man for a minute or so, handed him toe money, and started to go. 'Hoi' on,' said tho other. 'Don't you want ( to seo the hog?' "'No,' said tho stranger; 'I have peen as big a hog as I want to seo.' ' "And you will find that fact the (case with yourself, If you should hap pen to seo a few live robels there as well as dead ones." The Confederate! at Chattanooga. Capt. J. L. Styron, Columbus, O., (went laat spring to Newborn, N. C, ,to And tho grave of his father, who waa a captain in tho United States 'navy and died from tho effects of a wound received at Roanoke island. 'Captain Styron himself had helped raise a regiment of loyal North Caro illnlans, but upon his return to Now Iborn was given every nttention and 'courtesy. Ho felt strongly the treat .racnt of the Confederate vetcrana at (Chattanooga, and in an address to iLemert Post of Newark, O., spoko of jtlilH. Tho Post adopted resolutions re Igrettlng that tho Confederate veterans (wero refused tho privilege of march ing. . Severely Practical. "I feel that it Is my duty to scattei ..eunBhlne," said tho man who is la boriously cheerful. "You're too lato In the season with that .lino of weather good," replied Parmer CorntosBel, "And anyhow, what wo needed this year was rata." Conviction. "No man can servo two masters," observed tho good parson, who was visiting tho penitentiary. "I know It," replied Convict 1313. ri'm in here Xor blgumy."

'ixirf .sae IF you wish to busy yourself pre paring for the coming spring and summer, you can be assured of tho success of certain now styles in ad vance. It Is wise to be ready for the season which lures us out of doors, and to make tho most of it. Here Is tho sweetest of summer gownB, made of silk muslin and laco with a fichu nnd a belt of satin rib bon. Similar gownB are on display made of a variety of materlalB. There are embroidered cotton crepes, first of all. NetB, with flounces edged with lace, embroidered crepe do chino and voiles. Hut always lace and moro "laco. Point d'esprlt net is found very use ful and fine flowered voiles, lawns and batiste. ' Among tho handsomest of gowns aro those of white net showing flounc ings of the net edged with narrow black chantllly lace. Others of sheer cotton cr.epe with fold of black mallne laid under tho edge of flounclngs. Much hand embroidery nppears on the gowns of crepe, voile, etc. But it is of a kind that does not try tho eyes. Long sprays of flowers of mod erate size like the carnation, for ex ampleare done with heavy floss In long bold stitches. The effect is beau tiful. The gowns aro in whito or pale colors. Whito is tho loveliest, und the light colored undcrsllp with a lacc-trlmmed petticoat of net worn under these gowns Is beautiful. It would be bard to find a simpler or prettier model than that shown in the picture, for a flounced gown. Tho LACE AND RIBBONS MARK THE STYLES IN UNDER-MUSLINS UNDER-MUSLINS in common with other articles for women's wear, have been growing more lacy, moro bedecked with pretty finishing touches, moro diaphanous, with 'every season, until now, it seems, the limit has been reached. Night dresseB are made with yokes of flno net, having lace inserted, or superposed. Or they aro made with lace and flno em broidery or all laco yokes. Pretty washable ribbons are always a nec essary part of their construction. Al together the undergarments now on display In the great stores havo all been much Influenced by this liking for airy fabrics and tho crazo for laces. .As In outer garments, under-muslins aro cut with caBy llnea, to hang gracefully, not to "fit" tho figure. Whatever ono may think of the dlaph anouB materials, it must bo conceded gtLVf t ' ' st i. aLaal RED OLOUD, N EBRASKA, QHIEF design, too, is appropriate to older women, as well as to tho youthful wearer. In fact, the dffrerenco in flounced gowns for young or older wearers is discernible In finishing touches, rather than in design. Tho foundation skirts aro plain nnd straight. The flounces are adjusted in differing poses. Sometimes, as in the gown pictured, they sag toward tho back, but in a good number this Is reversed and they rise toward tho back. The waist lino is about the normal in most of them. While walots are draped, theso are Bet in sleeves ob well as drop shoulder and kimono ef fects. Ribbons are conspicuous, and tho "tango" shades, warm nasturtium yenows, are specially liked. Almost anyone who makes any pre tentions to sewing, or has any fnlth in her own ability, can put together a flounced dress. Tho trick seems to bo in adjusting the fiowors at tho right slope, with even fullness, and In not getting them too full. Tho threo flounced skirt, having tho flounces shaped, 1b displayed for heav ier fabrics, and Is wonderfully attrac tive. There is a world of light, airy fab- I rlcs, fascinating in design, and a world i of filmy laces, moderate in price, so ' that the flounced gown has a pleasant future before it Limp fabrics are chosen that fall to tho figure, so that flounces do not mean bulkinesa. That is tabooed, and Is likely to remain bo. JULIA BOTTOMLEY. i that tho present styles aro exception ally graceful. Thin muslins, nainBooks, and cambrics make up tho body of tho garments. Much beading Is used to carry the ribbons which mako gay tho several pieces. In tho midst of winter, when eve nings aro long and days are most comfortably spent in tho house, un dorwear for tho doming summer should be made up. In fact, tho bulk of the summer sewing can be done long before the clothes are needed. Spring goods are on display in Jan uary, and by tho first of February Btyles for tho coming spring and sum mer aro fairly well settled. A night dress of cambric and Val lace is shown in the picture. The yoke and very short nienvpn aro in one and made of Val in sertions. Thero aro two patterns or lace, the rows sewed togeth er. The kimono Bleeve portion may be lengthened by adding rows of insertion. A narrow edging fin ishes tho opening at tho neck, and a wider edge In the same pattern fin ishes tho sleeves. Tbo rowB of lace may be "whipped" together, that 1b, sewed edge to edge with a short overcast stitch, or sewed on tho machine. ' Tho yoke is Joined to tho skirt of the gown by a narrow band of em broidered beading. Through this a ribbon Is run, which ties at tho front in a Bmall bow. This ribbon serves to adjust the gown to the flguro. For such pretty night robes, Bepa ratb bows and rosottes of ribbon are provided. They aro to bo pinned on with' very small safety pins, - Little rosettes for tho top of tho Bleoves, matching tho other rlbbonB, but without hanging ends, may be added by way of elaboration.

IS CHILD CROSS, f Look, Mother! If tongue is coated, give "California Syrup of Figs." Children lovo this "fruit laxative," and nothing clso clennucp, tho tender stomach, liver nnd bowels so nicely. A child simply will not stop playing to empty tho bowols, nnd tho result is they becomo tightly clogged with wnste, liver gets sluggish, Btomnch sours, then your little one becomes cross, hnlf-vlck, 'feverish, don't eat, sleep or act naturally, breath 1h bad, system full of cold, has soro throat, stomach-ache or diarrhoea. Listen, Mother! Seo If tongue is coated, then givo a teaspoonful of "California Syrup of Figs," and in a few hours all the constipated waste, sour bile and undigested food paBBea, out of tho sys tem, and you hnvo a well child again. Millions of mothers glvo "California Syrug of Pigs" because it is perfectly harmless; children lovo it, and it Dov er fails to net on tho Btomnch, llvor and bowels.
