OITtD BY
f SUMMER.
.- ' (By Jurat Thompson!)
i JFrom brightening fields of ether lair dls-
" Child of the sun refulgent Summer
comes.
In prldo of youth and felt through Na-
ture's depth:
He comes attended by the ruU hours.
And ever fanning breeses on hl way;
While from his ardent look the turning
Spring
Averts her blushful face and earth and
gktaa
All smiling to his hot doxnlnlon leaves.
Among the phenomena of nature 'he
ability of nme animals to replace organs
which have been "destroyed Is most inter-
esting. Legs tails eyes or even heads that
liave been lost through the vicissitudes of
everyday life are restored in a manner
to excite the interest and admiration o(
mankind.
The method of restoration offords a
field for Investigation that has been large-
ly looked Info by naturalists.
Among the experiments were some
made upon the lunrrs of different Hpecles
of frogs and salamanders to find out if
. the organs could be regenerated after
they had len removed. The results were
positive and showed that the lungs could
be replaced after either partial or com-
plete removal. Because of their shelter-
ed position it has been said that Internal
organs do not regenerate but the experi-
ment showed conclusively that the luntrs
at least can be replaced.
This offers a different explanation to
the effect that the power of regeneration
varies according to the age of the ani-
mal a ynung animal regenerating the
parts more readily than an old one; also
that the simple organs are more easily
replaced than the highly specialised.
In the snail a pair of tentacles each
bearing an eye connects the animal's In-
ner consciousness with the external
world. These organs were restored eyes
and all within three weeks after total or
partial extirpation although the eyes were
liot perfect and there was an additional
band of visual elements extending from
the eye to the base of the tentacle.
River crabs will throw off their legs of
their own volition when trying to escape
and the ability to replace them probably
eaves the species from total destruction
from the attacks of numerous enemies.
Occasionally an animal will outdo Itself
In the matter of repairing losses and will
' produce an overdeveloped organ instead
of the old one.
There seems to be a general primary
power of regeneration In simple organisms
that Is gradually lost by animals higher
tip In the scale and the loss of the power
le In direct proportion to the Increase in
complexity of organization.

OF INTEREST TO WOMEN.
in selecting chtntses and cretonnes
for a Uvablu huun one niunt carefully
avoid confused deslKns and crude colors
for they can very easily and quickly be-
come tiresome. Another point to be cun-
Hidred especially when trying to find
cheap chlntaes Is the fastnettK of tin
colors. When using; the.m merely fin-
curtains they are eunily charged but the
coat of uphol&tertng precludes frequent
changes.
On Kitchen Shelves.
UnlnffK of newspaper or even white
or kitchen paper are a mistake as theso
only collect dust and lead to carelessness
In the matter of cleaning. It is alwan
best in the first instance to cover the
shelves and all the woodwork with a
ffood enamel which can be washed again
and again without losing its polish.
To Wash Irish Crochet Lace.
This kind of crochet re-mlres sumo
little care In washing but the result is
so satisfactory that no one ahoifM com-
plain of the trouble bestowed upon it.-
Melt some powdered borax In warm
water put In the lace and leave it all
night. Next day put the lace in a dry
cloth and squeese ut the superfluous
moisture put It into a clean saucepan
of water containing a small quantity of
soap jelly and more borax. Huil slowly
for twenty minutes or even half an hour
and then take It out. Hub It plentifully
with soHp and dip it in rather di-cp
blue water. Rinse it in several changes
of clear water to remove nil trace f
blue and leave It in clear cold water till
next day. You must then squeeze it
between the folds of a cloth as before
but on no account must it be wrung r
twisted an this will break the thread. It
should not he ironed and if the directions
I have given are carefully followed the
lace will look as If newly worked.
(From the Millinery Trade Review.)
The masses have seized upon the
ostrich bandeau and small round crown
black hats banded with this novelty in
brilliant shades of cerise Muc and green
are nothing short of common at the
time of writing. The helmet the thorn
in the side of the trade ;it present will
share the fute of the dis.eri.-cd ding-a-ling
but while it in bHnK popularized
it is affording the trade no little un-
easiness this same uneasiness being
augmented by the banded sailor peril
which ia approaching Naturally every-
thing Is being done to launch lite trim-
med hat but it is uphill work t his sea-
son for any but the most form It 1 occa-
sions. Flowers are seldom used except
in combinations. There is a tnder.oy
toward Ioosp wreath effects of held flutt-
ers and of combinations of other bloom
to be used lor midsummer hats. Pop-
pies are very good as are corn-flowers
and grasses. Among the cultivated
fuchsias may be mentioned as being
prominent. Fuchsia color in x are also
very good blending as they do with dark
blues purples and reds.
It will be noted that they form a dou-
ble fringe lying on the brim and an up-
standing fringe or wreath encircling the

For the LiWe Folks
The Three Sillies.
Hero is an old olil lulr tlmt used to
make mother laugh and laugh when sho
was little. It begins like this:
Once upon a time there was a fsirmer
and his wife who had one daughter who
waa being courted by a young man.
One day however she went down
cellar to draw some lieer and happening
to look up she saw a harm.ier sliiek m
the rafters over her hea 1 and she.
thought to herself:
"Dear dear how dreadful! l-'iip(osp
my young man ami I should tnarry and
have a Bon and he. shoul 1 glow up and
rome down In the cell r tor heir and
that hammer Hhould dio; on him and
kill him."
So she began to rry anl presently her
mother came down to Bee what was keep-
ing her so long.
There she sat weeping on the floor
with the beer running all over. When
the mother asked what was t ho matter
the girl told her and In a minute the two
of them were crying.
Then the father iame down ar.d when
they told him the trouble lie too begau
to weep.
Laughed at Them.
By and by the young man himself
came down for he had gotten I lied of
waiting all alone but when they told
him he burst out laughing and after
turning off the beer and taking down
the hammer he said they were the three
biggest fillies he had ever met1 and If
he ever met three as big sillies as they
he would come but k and marry their
daughter. Then he went off.
Ho the three sillies bean weeping
again because the daughter had lost
her future husband.
In the meantime the ynung man had
set out anil traveled a long way and
ut last came to a cottage with grass
growing on the roof and an old woman
trying to coax her cow to climh a lad-
der to the roof and cat the grass.
The young man told her to cut the
grass and throw It duwn to toe cow
but she would not and at least got the
c.ow up on the roof where she lie! a
rope around her put it down the chim-
ney and tied It around her waist so If
the cow fell off the roof she would
know it.
It about a minute the cow fell off nnd
wan choked and the weight of her pulled
the old woman half way up the chim-
ney where she stuck.
That w as one silly I
Shared His Room.
That night the young man slept at an
inn and as It was crowded he shared his
room with another young man who In
the morning hung his trousers on the
knoba of the bureau and then running
across the room tried to jump into them.
He tried over and over but couldn't
do It-
At laat lie told the young man he
thought trousers were very awkward to
put on and how did he manage It?
The young man showed him and the
uther was very grateful and said he had
never thought of that way.
So that was two sillies.
That night he came to a village and
found a lot of people with brooms and
sticks and robea splashing about In a
pond. When he asked what was tbe
mailer they told him the moon had
fa'len In birf try as they would they
couldn't scrape It out again.
The young man roared with laughter
and showed them the moon shining In
the sky but that only made them an-
gry so they chased him away.
And he deciding that there were lots
more silly people In the world than those
he had left behind at home hastened
back as quick as he could and married
the farmer's daughter and they lived
happy ever after .

the charges of the trial Judge. He was
a soda water manufacturer charged with
brtaking Into the place of a' rival in

that lie did so to pour oil In the other
man's soda water and not to rifle the
place. The cuiirt held that If this theory

BEEP CONTRACT PRICE.
State Will Save 13276 on Insane Asylum
Supply.
(Houston Post Sftdol.)
AUSTIN. Texas May 10 To A. J. Al-
len of Wills Tolnt the contract for fur-
nishing dressed beef for the North Texas
Insane asylum at Terrell was today
awarded by State Purchasing Agent Mo-
Kay. The contract Is only for four
months hut It Is figured that 210000
pounds uf meat will he used The meat
Is to he furnished free nf nock shanks
feet etc. and the contract price is $3.88
a hundred.
It Is riKured that the new contract will
save something like $3270 over the old
contract which was cancelled hy the
State purchasing agent because he did
not believe that the terms of the con-
trait were being complied with. The old
contract called for a price of $4.13 a hun-
dred for catt!e on foot or gross. In this
the waste really made the price run up
to double the contract price on the beef
that could be used. It was figured that
more than SO per cent was waste.
On this basis It Is figured that the old
contract price of $4.22 would entail a
cost of $3?.7!4 on the amount of meat
needed while under the new contract
the prospective total Is only $14.44$ a
difference of $13276.

SHEB WILLIAMS OPTIMISTIC.
Democratic Chairman Can Not See
a Chance for Statewidert.
(Houston Post SftcM.)
AUSTIN Texas. May 10. Colonel J.
Sheb Williams State democratic execu-
tive committee chairman stopped hare to-
day to shake hands with friends.
Colonel Williams as has been before
Indicated expects tlie anti-prohibitionists
to be overwhelmingly successful. He has
traveled ground a great deal lately and
says that he finds that all sntl-prohlbl-tlonlsta
will vote. However that element
of tho prohibition party that haa fought
for local option and has found it an auc-
ccssftil does not care to see the system
changed. It those who are satisfied with
local option vote at all they will vote
against statewide prohibition says Colonel
Williams and he cannot see where tha
prohibitionists expect to get their
strength.
Colonel Williams has talked to a great
many of tha farmers and others who live
on tha Texas side of tha Oklahoma bound
ary line. These men be says do not fa-
vor statewide prohibition for they hava
discovered how much better regulated the
liquor traffic Is In Texas with Its local
option laws than it Is In Oklahoma with
the Statewide prohibition regulations.
Colonel Williams promised to take all
the Confederate veterans In Lamar coun-
ty to the Little Kock reunion. When the
news got out hs began to receive re-
Juests from veterans all over the Stat to
nin his party. And he says he has not
refused a request yet and expects to have
a great trip with the old veterans.
