ionable next season are very wide, very
elegant, and not so very expensive, con-
sidcring their quality and device. Five
yards are often used where the wearer
is tall and elects for the Louis QuinZe
sash, the ends of which reach quite to
the foot of the dress skirt. Some of the
new Russian blouses for young girls
are made of the gay Persian sash-rib-
bons with trimming of the same at
the hem of the dress skirt, or showing
as n simulated petticoat between the
slashings of the outside skirt with a
sash of the same at the back of the
blouse, or Topped at one side if pre-
ferred The rich Louis XIV. sashes
show wide stripes of watered silks al.
ternating with those Of silk or
satin, with bright pop?adour figures
scattered in artistic groups down these
stripes. The floral patterns in some of
these beautiful novelties are exquisite

The Russian skirt.

A new device of the dressmal1ers
gives the effect of long Russian blouse,
and is what was formerly called
double skirt. II is simply bell skirt
lining covered with the dress material
up above the knees, and bordered at
the foot with ruche. Overlapping this
from the belt down is shorter skirt of
the material, shaped precisely like the.
lining, and bordered with ruche IL
that of the foot This upper skirt 1 u
resents the lower part of the long Rus
sian blouse, and is worn with a round
waist with edges extending over the top
of the skirt and concealing the join. 1t
is extremely pretty when made of black
India silk, with a ruche of box-plaited
Brussels net or of velvet ribbon border
ing the skirts -Harper's Bazaar.

kinds of nourishing food, often came
to see Glory, and many were the or
anges and gay picture books which she
brought to brighten the childs weary
life. Glory liked nothing so W ell as a
visit from Miss Gay. She loved to
touch the pretty soft dress and to
breathe in whitfs of the delicate per-
fume with which the lady's handker-
chief was scented.
After G lory's mother died Miss Gay
often talked to the child and tried to
comfort her by telling her of the happy
place to which her mother had gone
and how she was no longer tired, nor
hungry, nor sick. But glory could not
believe this. She knew that her mother
had been carried away and buried, and
she was sure she would never see her
again.
They took her off and put her in
the ground and heaped it all on top of
her and know she is not happy" said
Glory.
Miss Gay then told her about that
first Easter Sunday so long ago and of
Him who came out of the dark grave,
but Glory would not be comforted.
AS Maggie sat stitching on the ma
chine and her sister lay gazing out of
the window. they heard footsteps
ascending the narrow, rickety stairs,
and to Glory's great delight Miss Gay
appeared in the doorway. In her hand
she held beautiful dark-red rose
which she gave to Glory as she sat
down by her bedside. This rose. with
its rich, velvety petals and its delicious
fragrance, was wonderful thing to the
sick child, but it did not mean to her
what it means to- you. Perhaps you
will not believe it, but this was actual
ly the first flower she had ever seen,
and though it seemed very beautiful
she did not dream that it was living
thing-that it had grown from a tiny
green bud into this lovely flower.
After talking awhile Miss Gay pro-
ceeded to unfold some plans she had
been making, and before she was half
through Glory's eyes were shining with
excitement. Miss Gay had consulted a
doctor about the child and he thought
there might be a possibility Of curing
her if she could be in some place where
she could be carefully taken care Of,
and Miss Gay proposed that she go to a
hospital situated not far from the alley
where she now lived and let this doc
tor try to cure her. 1t would take
r,,a he ov,1 fhar, hn xunr,11 or
perhaps, be successful. But, after talk.
ing it over, Maggie agreed with Miss
Gay that it would be worth trying; and
as the lady promised to bear all the
expense and Glory agreed to lie still a
whole year if she could only walk
around at the end of that time, it was
decided that in the morning she should
go to the hospital.
She cried little next day at parting
from Maggie, but her sister was to
come to see her every Saturday, so she
choked back the tears and drove of
with smiling face, waving her hand
to Mrs. Mcguire and her six children,
who were crowded at the window to
see her off.
When they arrived at the hospital
Glory forgot all lonesomeness in the
wonder with which she gazed at the
two long rows of tiny white beds
stretching down the whole length Of
the room. To her eyes, unaccustomed
to anything but the dingy room and
its battered furniture, everything
looked very grand; and when, after

pulley lines were tossed up and down

pulley lines were tossed up and down
by the wind.
But the breeze had now almost en-
tirely died down and Mr. Maguire's
Sunday shirt hung limp and motionless
in the glare of the August afternoon,
all unconscious of the fact that it was
shutting out completely the small
square of sky which the lame child in
the dark little room loved to gaze
upon.
Glory's bed was hard cne-so hard
not care to lie upon it for an hour
even. and yet this poor child had lain
there ever since she was two years old,
and she was now thirteen Eight
year-old Maggie used to be left in
charge of the house while her mother
went out for days washing or clean
ing, and one day little, ver-burdened
Maggie had let the baby-sister fall and
she had never taken step since.
Maggie was grown up now and was
stitching busily upon the machine, for
she did tailoring, and, though the suns
rays beat down upon the tin roof over
head and the air was close and sultry,
vet it would not do to stop work, for
she must earn enough to buy food for
herself and Glory and to pay the rent
of the tiny room where they lived.
The mother had toiled for her chill
dren as long as she was able, but at
last she had fallen sick, and it was only
a week ago that some men had come
with the rough box which was to serve
as her coffin and had carried her away.
Day after day Glory lay on her little
bed and grieved and refused to be COM
forted Miss Gay, a young lady who
visited the sick people in the neighbor-
hood, bringing them jellies and all

having a warm bath and cup of de-
lcious broth, she was laid in one of
the beds, with its fresh, clean sheets
and snowy counterpane, it seemed as
if she were in anoth err world from the
one in which she had been living.
As the weeks went on the careful
nursing and the strengthening food did
wonders for Glory, but it was often
very hard for her to lie there patiently
day after day with the poor lame leg
held down by heavy weights Once in
awhile the doctor would remove the
bandages, and would appear satisfied
with the result of his examination.
One day in December Miss Gay came
IN with two small parcels in her hand
and sat down by Glory's side. She UNI
die the larger bundle and disclosed to
the child's wondering eyes flower pot,
filled with moist earth. She had never
seen a flower pot nor growing plant.
for all her life had been spent on bed
in an attic, and though she had heard
people speak of trees and green grass,
she had no idea that they were living,
growing things. Miss Gay next opened
the other parcel and showed Glory a
round whitish-brown object asked
her if she could tell what it was. 1T
looks something like an onion, only
different" ventured the little invalid
but Miss Gay shook her head.
mo, it is something nicer than an
onion; and now | will show you a won

the earth which filed the flower pot.

and cove it all up and leave it."

in Glory plalntively.

THE SPRING GIRL.

The winter girl is going and the summer girl
is coming;
The buds are on the trees, and the birds begin
to sing,
And we're nearing fast the time when Wen hear
the bees a-humming,
For already earth rejoices with the promise Of
the spring.
The winter girl and summer girl have charms,
there's no denying
The one in furs rejoicing, the other in pique;
But for the maiden of the spring no lover is
there signing
No vernal poet yet to her has sung a tuneful
lay.
And yet we know she's fairer, sweeter than the
two together,
In her handsome new spring bonnet and her
raiment fine and gay;
She's like the lily and the rose in one when
fines the weather,
And she walks TO church with modest air on
joyous Easter day.
Talk not about your winter or your summer
girls, pray you,
The furs and sealsliins of the one, the other S
furbelows;
But go to church with me on Easter Sunday
twill repay you
And see the spring girl blooming in her bon
net and new clothes.

Remarkable Effect Of Payette Whiskey.

Payette Independent.
Last night about II o'clock a
lady all dressed in white, seat, d
upon a white horse, without saddle
or bride, wendell her way from
house to house, stopping in front Of
each one, where for few moments
she sung the sweetest song ever
heard by mortal man. Those who
approached her would attempt to
touch her, then her steed, but
found nothing tangible, and yet
there she was, plain to be seen
before us all, singing her beautiful
songs, making the midnight air
ring with her melodious voice. A
stranger, more startling apparition
was never witnessed by the people
Of this city. Some say, it was a
ghost-a real ghost--but others say
they recognize in the form and
features beautiful young girl who
died 500 years ago, and who, before
her death was in the habit of
visiting the editors sanctum, dur
ing hot summer days, in order to
fetch him flowers and fruit and
copy to fill up with.
