A KIMONO Is as necessary to baby's wardrobe as it Is to our own if we are to take comfort Into consideration, and certainly this should be the first thing we consider. To fulfill this requirement in every way we should select a style that is sufficiently brond ncrosa the shoulders and around the arm to give perfect freedom, and It should be developed in a soft material that will not Irritate the dellrato skin. All garments for baby should be daintily fashioned, and if colors are chosen they should be in deli cate, soft shades of blue or pink. The one piece kimono illustrated Is made with tiny tucks In the back that give a pretty fullness. The sleeves are cut in one with the body portion and give ample room around the arm. The underarm seam may be closed or the edges finished SjM Ah.- Mfsl',) separately and tied lo! r Ml togcther wlth rlb' A dainty kimono can be made of white albatross with the edges but tonhole scalloped with pink silk. The neck can be faced with a bias piece of soft silk and closed at the neck with pink ribbons to match the embroid ery silk. The un derarm seams luay be finished In the Bame way and have a closing of ribbons to match those at the neck. Anotherdulnty ki mono can be car ried out iu white flannel with an em broidered dot In blue Bilk. The edges all around can be bound with blue wash ribbon about un Inch wide. A row of foather stltchlng will make a pleasing finish for the ribbon. It more warmth la needed an attractive sack can be copied after this design In white cashmere and lined with a delicate shade of blue or pink silk. A pretty finish for the edge Is to featherstitch the outside In n wavy line all around and fill In the apace from this line to the edge with embroidered polka dots. This, of course, should be done in bluo or pink to mulch tlio lining. A small silk cord with tassel eudB makes a pretty finish for the neck. Tho sleeves should be finished to correspond with the bottom. This pattern is cut In one size and requires 2 yards of material. Any reader of this paper who desires to secure this pattern mny do so by ending 10 cents to this olllce. Give the number, 4281, state size desired and write tho full address plainly.

"It may seem lnctcdlble to those who have never lived In or traveled much through timber districts where the huckleberry is Indigenous," said a nat've of such district, "but It Is a fact that there is ii tribe of shiftless persons In all such regions who systematically and without regard to law, property or life set Are to woods or cut over land adjacent to woods simply to In crease the area of huckleberry bushes. "There Is only one way in which huckellieriie? can be cultivated, and the huckleberry farmer does not need to own an Inch of laud. If he has the title to one simple Imll'er match h can iut tholiKiimls of acres under culti vation In a very short time. "He has only to light (lie match and touch It to the dry leaves and branches on the ground, either Iu early spring or late fall, and his cultivation Is soon under way. No matter what grew on the ground before Hre swept it bare, huckleberry bushes will never fall to spring up luxuriantly from the ashes and scorched soli. They will be In abundant bearing the next season. What the result may have been In loss of life or property does not concern the persons who renp the benefit. "Many of the fires that devastate our forests every year may be traced to this reckless and deliberate niaklug or Improving of huckleberry patches. I remember one Instance particularly where the setting fire to the brush on a huckleberry barren in northern Penn sylvania resulted In a forest Are that swept over a 10,000 acre timber tract, doing Incalculable damage to the atand Ing timber and reducing to ashes B0, 000 feet of logs and lumber and 80, 000 cords of tanbark, representing a money value of nearly $750,000. Twen ty persons were burned to death and thirty so badly burnt'd that seven of them died from their Injuries. The huckleberry crop gathered from this cultivation of that barren waste per haps realized $'J00 to the cultivators. Washlugton Post.

Dull aching keeps up, day and night. Tells you the kidneys need help For backache Is really kidney-ache. A kidney cure Is what you need. Doan's Kidney Pills cure sick kid neys. Cure backache and urinary ills. E. Warner, living In Elyvllle near Oregon City, Ore., says: "I had kid ney trouble and diabetes. I suffered from backache day and night, and had to get up nearly every hour of the night to pass the kidney secretions. I Anally procured a box of Doan's Kid ney Pills at Huntley Bros.' drug store and in about a week after commenc ing to take them I could sleep through the night without usual disturbance. All pain and other annoying symptoms soon ceased and I stopped taking the remedy. I had a slight recurrence of the trouble a few weeks later, but on using Doan's Kidney Pills again ob tained immediate relief." For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents.

Douglas- Au amusing incident occurred in Mc Lean county, ill., at the flrst court which Stephen A. Douglas, the famous poiltleau, uttended after his election as prosecuting attorney. There were many Indictments to be drawn, writes Professor Alleu Johnson In his life of Douglas, aud the new prosecuting at torney In his haste wrote the name of the county M'Cleau instead of McLean. Ills professional brethren were greatly amused at this evidence of inexperi ence and made merry over the blunder. Finally John T. Stuart, subsequently Douglas' political rival, moved that all the Indictments be quashed. Judge Loguu looked at the discomfited youth and asked what he had to say to sup port the Indictments. Smarting under the gibes of Stuart, Douglas replied obstinately that be htid nothing to say, as he supposed the court would not quash the Indictments until the point hud been proved. This answer caused more merriment, hut the Judge decided that the court could not rule pou the mutter until the pre cise spelling in the statute creating the county hud been ascertained. No one doubted what the result would be. but at least Douglas bad the satisfaction of causing his critics some delay, for the statutes had to be pro cured from au adjoining county. To the astonishment of court and bar aud of Douglas himself It appeared that he had spelled the name correct ly, To the indescribable chagrin of the learned Stuart the court promptly sustained all the Indictments. The young attorney was in high feather and made the most of his triumph. The Incident taught him a useful les sonhenceforth he would admit noth ing and require his opponents to prove everything that bore upon the case In hand. Hit Curiosity Satisfied. A wealthy tradesman who had been drinking the waters of Bath, England, took a fancy to try those of Bristol. Armed with a letter of Introduction from his Bath physician to a profes sional brother at Bristol, the old gen tleman set off on his Journey. On the way he said to himself, "I -wonder what Dr. Blank has advised the Bris tol physician In regard to my case?" and, giving way to curiosity, he open ed the letter aud read: Dear Doctor Th barr Is a fat Wilt shire clothier: make th most of him. Tours professionally, J. BLANK. Pelican end Flamingo. The hook of the pelican's bill Is red, aud undoubtedly the fable that the pelican feeds its young with blood from Its own breast originated In the bird's habit of prosing the bill upon the breast Iu order to more easily empty the pouch, when the red tip might be mistaken for blood. Another explanation is that the pelican became fonfused with the flamingo, which discharges Into the mouth of Its youug t secretion which In color resembles kieod.
