In attendance, Decides taeir < Majesties of Italy, will be sovereigns of Bel- j !gium, Sweden and Spain; also the Prince of s Wales, and other European royalties. It isn’t ic-rrri'rlns’. therefore, that Italy’s notables of •fashion are viemg with one another in the 'giory of their frocks : : : lovely evening 'gowns,»jewei-encrusted court costumes, gay iwxaps of all description.

And since I ; am associated, as European style representa | tive. with the Thom Me An Stores in America, I called upon one I ; of society’s favorite bootmakers.* I found him in an exclusive j 5 “shoe temple,” this ancient, incredibly wrinkled Cavalier Angelo j ^ Gatto, calzoleria (Italian for shoemaker), worshipping his crea- j $ tions. .“Nothing but crepe de chine shoes will be worn at the ; | royal ceremony ” said CavalieT Gatto, with assurance. vThese ; 5 are made of rich: corded silk, often with fantastic straps, piped j i with silver or gold. RedB, blues and greens are the favorite colors, , $ an indication, perhaps, of the gay costumes which will be worm j } Signor Gatto spoke deferentially of one particular pair of slippe^ j | —twin darlings in white and silver—and 1 gathered that the gol- ; ^ den princess herself would say “1 do” in these^Herbe^j^^^ ^ T' Vancouver Island's Steclheads Ter-* Angler's Skill to Utmost r— - w m-- ■ ■— ■ ■ > 6-kO.

MAN who knows Scotland told me of his experience with a Scotch shepherd. The shepherd seemed to have an uncanny power over the sheep. When he sent out h;s own peculiar call every one of them, no matter how distant, raised his head and started straight for home. The visitor begged for a chance to try his calling powers. He cupped his hands over his mouth and emitted a noise which to his own ear' sounded exactly like the shepherds call. * Not a single sheep responded. “Don’t be discouraged,” said the shepherd. Try again. Maybe there is a sick one in the flock and, if so, he will listen to vou. When sheep are healthy they will follow only their own shepherd, but a sick one may go off alter anybody. Every once in a while somebody rises up to criticize us modern parents for tievoting too much time and attention to our children’s physical well-being Savs such a critic: cour.ii, the body is important, but it was given to us not to be exalted but to be disciplined and • put down. To lav so much emphasis or. the physical is pagan ism. Our righteous ancestors disregarded the body and paid attention to their souls.” j This is true, and it might be added that our ancestors, by neglecting their bodies in the interest- of their souls, beat us to*Heaven bv an average of twenty years. J hey matured young, worried much, and died in what we now regard as early middle life i Moreover, J ha-.-t always questioned whether they were truly religious, whether it is possible to be religious in the best sense if one :s sick and ruled by fe-vrs. Old Simeon Sh iites believed that it is the business of a saint to mortify the body. He chained himself to tho top of a pillar, and became so loathsome that worms lived in his flesh, and lie-did net attempt to pick them out because he regarded bis sufferings as a means of grace. How such an idea could have been bom out of the teach ings of the healthy out-door Jesus is one of the mysteries of the ages. He mortified no bodies. He healed them, built them "up, and sent their owners on their way rejoicing. St. Paul, the great disciple, loved games, races and fights If it be argued that most of the philosophers have been men of poor health, I venture to contend that the world lias more philosophy than it needs or can ever use. And that what is more important is more normal, laughing optimistic women and men. Health is prophylactic. A healthy boy would much rather go to a ball park than a saloon. It’s the weak, nervous creatures who demand the stimulus of dissipation. Just as the weak sick sheep go off v^ien a false voice calls. v..
