FOR SUMMER MORNINGS
In this pretty frock of grey blue
linen heavy lace in a soft cream color
has been effectively introduced. The
yoke which continues half way to the
elbow has been fashioned of this lace.
There is a bib of this also which com
pletes the panel in the front of the
skirt. The upper part of - the skirt
fits the figure quite snugly, the lower
portion is, slightly fulled, the lower
deep flounce which, however, does not
depart from the straight silhouette.
This flounce has a row of linen but
tons which, apparently serve to close
it down the center front.
IS GETTING LOW
Fruit dealers look for heavy straw
berry receipts for the next few days,
but say that in all probability this
week will finish the season of active
trade in that fruit. There will of
course be berries in the market for
some weeks to come, but the big end
of the crop in local territory is al
ready in, and from this, time on, the
fruit men say ,the supply will grow
steadily smaller.
This, then, is the week for home
canning, and the supply promises to
be sufficient for that purpose. Un
fortunately in quality the berries now
coming do not quit average up to
those of last week for which the rains
of a few days ago are held mainly
responsible, but good trade fruit is
still available and at satisfactory
prices. But for the Festival last week
immense quantities of the fruit would
have been put up then, but that work
had to be deferred.

OAK GROVE
Why He Sees Double.
The reason that a man sees double
who has gazed too long on the wine
when it is red is that the nerve cen
ters are changed by the action of the
alcohol. There is a want of harmony
in the action of the muscles which
move the eyeballs. Consequently in
stead of both eyes being focused si
multaneously on an object one eye re
ceives an impression Independently of
the other. The two Impressions are
communicated to the brain, and the
object Is therefore seen twice. The
inflamed condition and loss of energy
In the brain centers from overdoses of
alcohol also account for the stagger
ing gait of an Intoxicated -man.
A Delicate Point.
They are, a happy couple. They
haven't been married very long. , In
fact the honeymoon bas barely waned.
An elderly friend met the. bridegroom
downtown yesterday and slapped him
on the back.
"Well, happy as a lark, 1 suppose?" '
"Oh, yes."
"How's the cooking?"
"I have one trouble there. Ifs just
this my wife has been preparing angel
food every day for dinner."
"You must be getting tired of it"
"I am. Yet I feel a hesitancy about
saying anything. How soon after the
honeymoon would it be proper to ask
for beefsteak and onions?" Pittsburgh

Light Lures the Fish.
Fishermen of Cezimbo. Portugal, have
a novel method of catching fish by the
use of a natural phosphorescent sub
stance This is obtained from a fish
known as Malacocephalus laevis and
is a thick yellowish fluid which pos
sesses a bluish phorphorescence In the
dark, believed to be due to the pres
ence of a luminous microbe. The fish
ermen rut this substance upon a mus
cular tissue, such as a piece of cuttle
fish, and this is used as bait. The light
appears to last for a long time, at least
for several hours, and bas a brighter
glow when dipped in the sea. Fish are
attracted to the bait by the light and
are thus caught.

TAFT VICTOR IN FIRST
(Continued from page 1)
deal we appeal in behalf of Governor
McGovern."
Francis J. Heney, of Calif ornia was
the center of a warm demonstration
as he took the platform.
"This nation is confronted by one
of the most momentous periods in its
history," he began. "The question
is not which individual shall preside
here. There is a question underlying
that which goes to the foundation of
Republican institutions. A national
committee prepared a roll for this con
vention whi?h it is proposed shall
command the delegates in their choice
of a temporary chairman. This is the
first step, and it means that men who
have no right to sit here will nomin
ate a candidate for President If a
Republican president is jto be elected
he must be elected by the votes of the
Republican states. He "will not be
elected by the vote of the Philippines
Porto Rico or AlaBka. He will not
be elected by the votes of southern
states."
The gallaries were shouting - and
yelling and many Taft delgates were
jeering, but Heney kept on.
"This reminds me of some of ' the
actions of the national committee, led
by 'Big Steve of Colorado," Heney
added. .

TOMATO SECRETS
In choosing tomato plans for grow
ing prize tomatoes, do not select tree
tomatoes, as they are not prolific, but
pick out some good, smooth; meaty
variety. Set the plant on the south
side of the stake, about four 1nr?ha
from it and train same to stake as it
grows, ueing it with binder twine or
cloth strings, which are preferable.
Many times when the plants are very
rank two branches will start to grow
from the top, but clip one off, allow
ing only one to grow to a height of 5
feet, then clip the tops, and keep
them clipped, which will hasten the
ripening, and convert all the strength
of the vine into fruit
When the plants are 8 or 10 inches
high, little runners or shoots will ap
pear in the forks. Here, writes C.
P. Bowlesly, in Farm and Home, is
where the whole secret lies. These
runners sap the main vine, and turn
all the strength into vines instead of
tomatoes. When they appear, pinch
them off and allow only the main vine
to grow. The fruit buds or blossoms
will also appear in the same fork
but do not disturb them. Keep clip
ping out the runners every time you
find any or every time you cultivate
them. The fruit will be nice, early,
clean, handy to pick, a great improve
ment over the old way.
