Heavy silk embroidery done on the
dress material is to be the height of
fashion the coming season.
The latest notion Is to wear small
fancy-bordered handkerchief peeping
out of small pocket on the right or
left hip.
Ornaments in cut steel. such as
buckles, large buttons and fancy
brooches will be used on fall suits of
light-tinted ladies' cloth.
New woolens for fall wear have
raised polka dots Of silk brocaded all
over their surface, either In the same
shade or In contrasting color.
Handkerchiefs with very minute
colored borders, and the name en-
broidered in a color TO match that OF
the border, are very popular. e.
Heavy corded silk material, and
stuffs in silk and in worsted, figured
with velvet, are among the coming
novelties in the way of dress goods.
1t is proposed that ladies shall adopt
the Turkish style Of wearing their
wells next winter, that is, over the
mouth, chin and nose instead of the
eyes.
White dresses have occasionally the
entire skirt covered with narrow
founces of Oriental lace. The basque
is then trimmed with lace ruffies and
cascades.
Cut steel buckles for dresses and
hats are rich and elaborate, and are
the harbinger Of the elegant steel
trimmings. which will be prominent
the coming season.
White or black dresses are frequent
ly adorned with multi-colored ribbons,
hoops and long streamers, or iabots in
mixtures Of colors-olive, gray and
pink or pale blue cardinal and terra
Gotta for instance, being conjointed.
Primrose, bronze, brown and crimson
form another fashionable combination,
but the slightest error in tint destroys
all the good effect. Well blended, this
simple trimming sufficiently brightens
the sombrest toilet.

Life In Morocco.

Charles Dudley Warner says in the
Atlantic Monthly: No sooner does
one land in Africa than he passes into
sphere of tranquility and enjoys a
state of rest and calm to which al
parts of Europe are strangers. The
haste and furry N life fall of, like an
irksome garment shed on hot day;
time is of no more account; and worry
is impossible amidst population which
moves with dignified slowness and de-
fers all unnecessary exertion till to-
morrow. Whatever may be the hustle
Of arrival. the clamor of bOatmen, the
indescribable noise and tumult and
vociferation Of the swarm that aSsails
the stranger. seiZes his property with a
hundred hands and threatens TO scatter
it all over Morocco; whatever may be
the tumult of the market-place. with its
camels and donkeys and dervishes and
conjurors and beggars in clouds, sellers
Of lentils and green's, and bundles Of
sticks for firewood. grain, sugar-candy,
dates, oranges, pottery and truck" Of
all sorts powdered with dust; whatever
may be the importantly of sellers, and
the eagerness to act as guides of bright
eyed boys. who have smattering OF
half a dozen languages, and often the
courtly manner of young princes, there
is, nevertheless, In all this noise and
rout, sense of underlying calm, Of alb
sence of hurry, very grateful to Euro
peans, whose nerves. In the develop
ment of civilization, have all worked
out upon the surface. There is even
soothing In the ceaseleSs
and monotUnous tom-tom Of the drums,
and the skirmishing and piaintive at
tempts Of the flutes to suggest the mi-
nor air they are too lazy to play, and in
the spasmodic and die-away ejacula-
tions of the musicians. who sit upon the
ground, worrying away at the tunes
that are a thousand years old, and will
be played with the same industrious
idleness thousand years hence. 1t re-
quires less energy for the performers to
20 on with this sort of music than to
ston.

Re Of Good Cheer.

A man who acquires habit of CIV
ing way to depression is on the road to
ruin. When trouble comes upon him,
instead of rousing his energies to COM
bat It, he weakens. and his faculties
grow dull, and his Judgment becomes
obscured, and he sinks in the slough
Of despair. And IL anybody pulls him
out by main force. and places him safe
on solid ground. he stands there de-
jected and discouraged. and Is pretty
sure to waste the means Of hep that
have been given him. How different
It is with the man who takes CHEEKY
view Of life even at its worst, and
faces every III with unyielding pluck
He may be swept away hy m over
whelmlng tide Of misfortune. but he
bravely struggles for the shore and i
ever ready 70 make the most Of the
help that may be given him. 4 cheer

American Titled Ladies.

The number of American ladies who
sport titles is quite large It is said
the most intimate friend of Queen
Victoria for the last thirty years is an
American lady, Mrs. Van der Weyer;
Lady Randolph Churchill, Lady Man
deville; Lady Anglesey, Lady Har-
court, Lady John Lister Kaye, Lady
Fermor-Hesketh andLady Colin Camp
bell are all Americans; the Princess de
Lynar of Berlin came from Columbus,
Ohio; the Princess de Noer, cousin
of Victoria by marriage, and sister-in-
law of the dowager queen of Den
mark, was Miss Lee, of New York;
the Duchess Laute Della Novere was
Miss Davis; the Princess Louis de
Bourbon, the Duchess de Praslin and
the Roman Princess Cenci, Brancaccic
and Giustiniani are also Americans;
while the crown of Holland, in the
person Of the late Prince of Orange,
was refused five years ago by an Ameri-
can lady in Paris.

Story Of n sPinet.

The pedigree and viciSsitudes of an
antique spinet recently presented to an
Edinburgh bride are very interesting.
It is the identical instrument on which
Sir Walter Scott's daughters, Annie
and Sophie, received their earliest
music lessons, contains only thirty-six
notes, and is probably just such one
as that on which Princess Charlotte, of
Mecklenberg-Strelitz, was playing when
she attracted the favorable attention
Of George III. 1t bears the name of
"John and Hugh Watson, Edinburgh,
makers, from London" After being
superseded in the Scott family by
more modern piano of larger compass,
Sir Walter gave 1t to friend who had
little girls, in 1917, and in whose
schoolroom it did good service for
twelve years. The owners did not like
to part with it, and it accompanied
them through many changes, serving
for several years as lobby table, un-
dertaking a weary journey in 1854.
and being placed in the corner of
bathroom, where IL remained till 1872,
when another turn of Fortunes wheel
brought it back to Edinburgh. The
new owner, however, could not afford
1t standing room, and sought TO place
It in the relic-room of the Scott monu-
ment, but it was thought too large for
admission. The legs were conse-
quently taken off and suspended from
the roof of buffers pantry. while
the trunk reposed ignominiously un-
der a bed. Now that the craze for
everything antique has set in, the old
piano is regarded as thing of Joy and
beauty. and, carefully encased in coat
Of many colors, the groundwork
whereof is "greenery gallery" sort
OF cloth, occupies place of honor
among the possessions of the third gen.
Grafton, who prize it. not only as a
relic of the author of Waverly" but
as "quite too intensely precious or

A writer In an English fashion paper
Is moved to inquire whether the natural
whiteness of the English woman's skin
is myth, inasmuch as statistics show
that no less than 1000 swans skins are
annually imported into London alone
for the exclusive manufacture of the
pulls used for the purpose of laying
powder on the face. Every swans skin
makes about sixty puffs, which would
make an annual consumption of 420,-
600 puffs. The same statistics say that
tons of rice and wheat powder are con-
sumed annually in England

parts of Germany. In some districts
the harvest Is completely ruined. The
grain crops of all descriptions, which
by this time should have been nearly
all harvested, lie rotting in the fields.
The disaster is all the greater and more
Disappointing. since for seventy years
past Germany has not had the promise
of SO abundant q harvest as that OF
the present year.
